The filming officially started. However, the two protagonists Renly and Jennifer did not go into battle in person. Instead, they stood next to the camera and paid close attention to the filming situation. This is also an important feature of super commercial blockbusters - the filming started, but the protagonists were missing. Gotta be in front of the camera.
This is a complete scene, but it has to be split into multiple shots. First, shoot the part where Cage flies the kite, and then shoot the part where Rita commits suicide and hits the wall. Both parts require professional stuntmen, and then close-up shots. During the close-up, it will be the turn of the two leading actors to go into battle.
But neither Renly nor Jennifer left. They were waiting on the set, nervously watching the filming while whispering about the moves and movements of the next scene..
The difficulty of this scene is not in the performance. For the actors, it is enough to show their concentration and determination, to show their indomitable spirit and perish together; more energy should be put on the connection of action scenes, fights and Fighting is not difficult, what is difficult is fighting beautifully and fighting handsomely. This is also the difference between movies and reality..
The filming lasted for more than two hours, with explosions, collisions, broken glass, and fires. In order to present the most realistic effects, the director did what he could and what the studio could bear. Inside, all scenes are presented to the greatest extent possible.
After the camera starts running, a shooting may last less than three minutes, but the re-preparation before each shooting takes at least twenty minutes or even longer. After four shootings, the director finally announced the approval, and the two The stuntman completed all the filming, and the filming process went smoothly beyond expectations. All the staff on site applauded, accompanied by whistles and cheers..
Then, it was Renly and Jennifer's turn！
Standing on the towering wall, which is at least three stories high, the fallen cement wall formed a large landslide, leading all the way to the ground. Both Renly and Jennifer needed to reach the ground, but Renly rolled after his kite broke. Go down, and Jennifer jumps down nimbly..
“Wow, this place is higher than expected." Jennifer followed closely behind and climbed the stairs to the wall. Next to it was a helicopter model. She would go inside and wait for the shooting..
The staff is checking the protective equipment for Renly. Not only is he wearing close-fitting soft armor under his clothes to help reduce the impact, but he is also wearing protective covers on his elbows, knees, shoulders and other joints to avoid as much damage as possible. Potential damage; at the same time, you must also ensure that the equipment is light and cannot hinder Renly's movements..
Hearing Jennifer's sigh, Renly turned his head and said, "How about, if Storm is here, can she show off her power? Or Magneto?" The studio changed in a second, switching to "X-Men: Episode 1" "World War I" mode.
Jennifer also nodded repeatedly, "You can't see any iron blocks here. I guess Storm is more powerful." As she said that, Jennifer stood on the spot and started to gesture with her hands spread out, imitating the Storm played by Halle Berry. , "Then her eyes will turn snow white, and this will become her world.”
“What about Magneto? "The two staff members were checking Renly's equipment one after another, and then they saw Renly's hands spread out, stretched out, and slowly raised up, "Is that so? When you raise your hands, all the metal will start to commotion? "As Renly asked, his expression became serious and ferocious, he gritted his teeth and let out a muffled sound of "ah", like a weightlifter lifting all the "iron blocks" with both hands..
Jennifer made a "whoosh" sound from her mouth, "If I destroy the magnetic field, you won't be able to perform..”
“Nonsense, Magneto is so powerful that no one except Professor X can resist him, okay? "Renly's muscles tensed up, and his arms even trembled exaggeratedly. He looked less like a performer and more like an otaku imitating a superhero at the San Diego Comic Con..
The crew members standing below raised their heads and looked at the two people who were "working". Alexander Skarsgård couldn't help but frowned and put his hands on his hips, "What...are they doing?"？”
Rami Malek turned his head indifferently, "Do I know them? We just met them for the first time today. Are they not patients who ran away from some mental hospital?"？”
Paul Walker, who was standing next to him, couldn't help but smile, laughed brightly, and patted Lamy on the arm, "Please, man, don't be so harsh." But look at Renly and Jennifer's childish movements. , still couldn't help it, he laughed again, and he simply gestured, "Then what am I going to do? Wolverine?" Paul followed Wolverine's example and raised his fist, showing that it didn't exist at all. minions.
Donald Glover also jumped up, "What about me? What about me? How about Quicksilver?"？”
Finally, Will Poulter, who had been standing silently next to him, said, "So, you are Renly's son."？”
“……”There was silence, as if you could hear the sound of crows flying overhead, and then everyone burst into laughter. Donald and Will immediately started chasing each other on the set..
Paul Greengrass looked helplessly at the noisy crew, picked up the loudspeaker, and shouted, "Thirty seconds countdown." Such shouting immediately made everyone calm down, but there was a sense of relaxation floating in the air. The pleasure still makes every staff member’s lips curl up..
Standing on the wall, Renly and Jennifer stopped messing around, gathered up their emotions, and got ready to start shooting..
Jennifer looked at the height and landslide in front of her, and could not help but turn her head slightly to look at Renly, "Man, good luck! Believe me, I definitely don't want to fall down from here myself..”
This made Renly burst into laughter, "Girl, you're not helping." Hearing Jennifer's laughter again, Renly's nervousness eased a little, but after he calmed down, his heartbeat started beating in his ears again. stand up——
He must take the initiative to roll down the third floor. It doesn't look easy, and it is even more difficult to do it personally..
Take a deep breath and calm down your breathing and heartbeat. This is not as scary as you thought. It is just like free-handed rock climbing in the Verdon Gorge. There are skills for everything. As long as you master the skills, you can achieve the so-called impossible. It increases the chance of becoming possible. What's more, the Verdon Gorge is a truly dangerous situation. The whistling wind, the hot and dry sunshine, the slippery and sticky sweat... everything is so real, bit by bit. Laxness and negligence may lead to broken bones. But here？
Raising his head, Renly cast his gaze in the direction of the crew and made an "OK" gesture to indicate that he was ready for filming; at the same time, the staff standing behind the wall confirmed the location again, and then After asking Renly loudly and getting a second confirmation, they notified the director through the intercom..
Standing there, Renly relaxed his shoulders and legs casually, cleared all distracting thoughts in his mind, and waited for the countdown sound, "5, 4, 3..." According to usual practice, in order to facilitate the scene, in " When "three" is reached, the actor must start from the lines of the previous scene to ensure that the director can edit and complete the connection. But this scene cannot be done. When "three" is reached, get out. When the camera starts shooting, Halfway through, this is bad.
“1”The shouts rang out, but Renly was still not in a hurry to start immediately. Instead, he waited for the helicopter model to collide again, and the glass made of special materials above his head fell down. Then, following the inertia of the aircraft model colliding with the wall, the two He leaped into the air with a big stride, as if he were jumping into the lake. He moved his hands and charged forward forcefully. He landed on his shoulders and rolled forward, and then...then he couldn't control it any more..
He was rolling down like a gourd, using his hands and knees to form a buffer, but the momentum of his fall was too strong, and the impact of the entire inertia began to surge, and finally the whole person hit the ground heavily. His upper body, back, ribs, thighs, and waist suffered violent impacts. The pain was swallowed up in an instant and slowly disappeared. Hidden in the numb stiffness, there was a moment of tightness, so that for a moment, he couldn't help but open his eyes. He closed his mouth and froze in place..
“Card！”
It was just a shot of less than ten seconds, and then the director's voice rang out. He shook his head, "Renly, the arc and strength of the roll are not enough. It feels real enough and embarrassing enough, but not handsome." Paul Greengrass walked over quickly, followed by martial arts instructor Nick Davis, "Also, the angle of the roll needs to be closer to the camera, almost at this position, I need to be in this open space capture your next move.”
The brief pain disappeared quickly. The most important thing was that the last impact was so fierce that almost all the previous rolling force was removed, so it was no big deal. But Renly was still lying on the ground, looking at Paul speechlessly. "Director, you can at least wait until I stand up before speaking. The amount of information is so large that I can't accept it..”
They had been working together for more than two months. Paul knew as soon as he heard that Renly was joking. He twitched the corner of his mouth speechlessly, "Get up, we wasted so much time just now, now we must speed up the progress."！”
“Hey, director, are you taking revenge? "Renly retorted, but Paul shrugged, but smiled and turned his head, "Nick, teach Renly how to be charming when you fall..”
Nick stretched out his hand, grabbed Renly's right hand, and asked him to stand up again. "Are you okay?" Renly waved his hand with a smile, and then began to ask about "The Art of Tumbling." Nick was in the open space next to him, On-the-spot guidance, "When we roll down, the force of inertia is irresistible, but we can use.”
Nick climbed directly on the ground to demonstrate, "Every time you face down, use your palms to support it as much as possible. Just straighten your elbows and push hard. When you slide down, your body will rise up and the whole body will roll." The posture has a magnifying effect in the lens, but when you finally land, you must pay attention to folding your hands and landing with your shoulders to avoid swaying, but to land cleanly and neatly, so that you will not appear frivolous..”
“Wow." This was the only reaction Renly could make at this time..
