King of Hollywood Chapter 200: Explosion scene

In New York City, Brooklyn, an apartment on Fulton Street and an area outside were early delineated to allow no traffic. The residents who lived nearby did not know what was going on at first, but with the arrival of various vehicles and the equipment removed from the vehicles, they quickly understood.

No one is surprised, not even onlookers. This situation is too normal in New York. As the most well-known city in the United States, many movies or TV series are filmed here every day. It wasn't until a team of fully-armed police officers got off the car and quickly launched a tactical formation that caused some interest from some residents.

Any rescue or arrest operations will be carried out in the name of filming? Someone thought so teasingly. This is of course impossible, and the "policemen" started to loosen up in less than two minutes. Even so, there are still many people who find it very interesting. They must stop and watch for a while while passing by here.

However, for Adrian, who is directing the studio, this is not so interesting.

"Charlie, tell Raymond, let the extras act faster and prepare for the first test shot immediately. In addition, let Trevor come to me right away." Adrian wrinkle the brush Charlize wasn't so commanded.

"Got it." Although the glamorous female secretary was more radiant than before, she seemed very upset with a stretched face, did not wait for Adrian to speak again, and turned and walked away.

Adrian shrugged noncommittally, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth because of the thought, and he began to discuss it with others. The first scene was the only big scene in the whole movie, okay, it’s not a big scene. The special police were stuck outside the apartment in Lyon and wanted to go in to catch him. The important and intense scenes were all in the building. , Outsiders just surround here and maintain order.

If only this is the case, Adrian will not arrange this part of the camera to turn on. The key is that in addition to these, the explosion scene is very important, so I have to negotiate with community agencies and some government departments to draw half the street for shooting.

As early as the filming of the "Scent of a Woman" drag racing scene, he knew how annoying these organizations were. It wouldn't work here for a while and it wouldn't be right there. Don't start shooting if you don't follow their instructions. Therefore, before this, he let people contact with each other. Anyway, it was such a scene.

"Very good, that's it, let the blaster prepare." After Adrian explained the matter, he immediately went to the RV, and the two main actors have put on costumes and are talking to each other.

"How is it, let, do you feel okay?" Adrian greeted loudly, and Jean? Renault hugged one, and then looked at the guy with messy hair but in a suit, with a trace of evil spirits .

"It is an honor to meet you, Count Dracula, do you need me to kiss?" Adrian said in an exaggerated tone.

"I think I have to remind you, Mr. Adrian, first of all, I am a man; second, I am currently single." Gary Oldman said with an eyebrow raised, the stubble on the slightly raised chin reserved for the movie. Shivering.

Renault next to him laughed immediately, and Oldman seemed to be not addicted, adding an additional sentence: "It seems that the rumor that you have a lot of research on British culture is not credible."

"I have never said that I have a lot of research on British culture," Adrian didn't care about his ridicule, and he stretched out his hand with a smile, "I'm glad you can join this movie, Gary, you are and The rumors are the same, although they are performing some dark roles, but they are still cute and funny in private."

"Thank you for the compliment, I am also very happy to work with the well-known director of Marvel." Oldman who shook hands with Adrian suddenly smiled, obviously very useful for his compliment.

"Okay, I’m going to shoot the explosive scene now, and I look forward to your play after the end." After a few words of greeting, the crew ran over and said everything was ready, and Adrian immediately resigned and came to the camera. Behind.

"All departments pay attention, scene 16, scene 79 is ready to start shooting." After everyone returned to his place, the scene raised the board in his hands and shouted loudly, and beat it down two seconds later.

The scene suddenly became quiet, and the camera began to turn. Adrian folded his arms and stared at the exit of the apartment. One second, two seconds, there was a loud bang, and smoke and fire light squirted out of it, and several professional avatars wearing explosion-proof police uniforms immediately made the appearance of being blown away by the waves.

The explosion scenes in the shooting are completely different from those seen on the big screen. There are not so many flames, most of them are smoke, neither gorgeous nor shocking. This requires adjustments in post-production, such as increasing contrast, speeding up lens conversion, or slowing down playback speed, etc.

This is the first time Adrian directed the explosion scene, so he not only used two cameras to shoot from different angles, but also specially found an experienced assistant director to help.

"Basically qualified, according to your requirements," Deputy Director Masterson explained to Adrian by pointing to the picture on the monitor, "In the later period, you can make the picture brighter, and then slow down, which is dignified. Feeling and impact."

"Is there any room for improvement?" Adrian asked, touching his chin.

"If you ask for it, you don't need to make much improvement," Masterson's answer is very clever. "It's already very good to be able to shoot this effect once."

"Then shoot again, as a backup, and then shoot again according to your feelings, I will let the blaster do it according to your requirements." Adrian said immediately, since it is so, then shoot a few more times, It happens that there is space and time. Otherwise, if you find that you need to retake it later, it will be too much trouble.

One morning after the repeated shooting twice, the time has almost passed. Before each shooting, the blaster and the props engineer must arrange all kinds of props, and after each shooting, someone must step forward. It takes a lot of time to carry out the cleaning work. Especially after the shooting, don’t think that you can continue to blast without taking advantage of it. The people in the community are watching by the side, and these are all written into the agreement.

Adrian didn't care about this, as long as the film effect met his requirements, it would be fine to spend a little more money. As for the two main actors, they are still preparing with great dedication.

After a simple lunch, the crew took a one-hour break and started operating again. After spending about 40 minutes shooting outside police-related footage, Adrian started shooting Renault and Oldman’s first rival play .

The scene is that when Renault successfully got out of the special police and walked towards the exit, Oldman, who had been here for a long time, shot and killed from behind, but he also rang before he died. The grenade hidden in his body killed Oldman.

The lens here is quite moral. When Lyon, as a killer, finally got a touch of warmth from Matilda and began to change his habits, hoping to become more like a normal person, he walked towards the gate full of light When he was about to escape from here, a gun was pointed out in the dark behind him and pointed to his vest, causing him to fall to the place where there was only Gone with the Bullets from the light.

Even so, he still killed the big villain Stan in his last breath, and Stan’s final reaction was also very interesting. When he saw the large pile of grenade hanging on Lyon, he just cursed calmly. Damn," it shows how far his madness has gone.

However, Adrian does not have much thought to analyze these meanings. That is the thing of the fans and critics. Besides, even if he really left a deep meaning here, the fans and critics can be interpreted quite differently. So instead of thinking about these flashy things, it is better to devote energy to storytelling.

From the point of view of the story, Lyon is also indispensable, and the same ending is the best ending. Quite simply, even if he escaped, as long as Stan was not dead, he and Matilda lived in a tense atmosphere, and the length of the movie did not support another showdown with Stan. What's more, the unsatisfactory ending is more memorable and more meaningful.

Of course, one of the most important reasons is that film critics or mainstream society will not tolerate the appearance of such "...abnormal love" in movies. Although they are not pure themselves, but want to express in the movie this little loli fell in love with the milo ~ IndoMTL.com ~ and then happy life together plot, then it will inevitably attract unprecedented criticism.

Of course, the film director can also insist on his own creation. After all, here is...um...free, but it will definitely be marginalized and will be rejected by the mainstream society. Adrian will only do so when the head is filled with water.

This is also one of the reasons why Luc Besson’s version of "This Killer is not too cold" at the box office in the United States is not good. In addition to this is a French movie, some explicit lines in the movie ——It is more explicit in the United States. It also affects the perception of film critics, and these film critics affect a large number of fans.

So Adrian deliberately dealt with these places when writing the script, for example, to make the relationship between the two more blurred, and to mix affection, friendship and love together. The lines have also been meticulously repaired, and some shots have been abandoned or replaced with other ones, just like Matilda jumped out in a bra and played a movie role to let Lyon guess there, although the bra is hanging outside, but Adrian has been replaced with another role-play. In a simple sentence, try to reduce possible sexual temptations and increase the tenderness.

Of course, the premise of doing this is not to affect the main plot. Adrian believes that after this modification, this movie will only be more successful than the original version. ()
