Seven hundred and twenty nine – opening
As Wayne sat in the director’s seat, the shooting scene gradually became quiet, and everyone accelerated their movements. In fact, even if he does nothing, he firmly attracts the attention of all the staff. This is the influence of a successful crew leader.
“Hey Matt, Angie, come
to
me. ”
Waving at the hero and heroine, after the two of them got together as the director, Wayne took advantage of the little gap before filming to make his last exhortation.
“Matt, play your corpse, I just observed the waves, you may be a little uncomfortable lying in it, but if you don’t want to be choked by the sea frequently, then try not to make mistakes, hurry up and put this simple paragraph Take the camera, okay?”
Although it was the first time to cooperate with the other party, Matt Damon was fully prepared. Hearing the other party’s instructions, he nodded without hesitation.
Seeing that there was no problem with his male lead, Wayne turned his head to look at Angelina Jolie, thought for a moment, and then said, “If I follow my work habits, I generally like to put particularly difficult scenes at the beginning. But this time is different, Angie, you should understand why I arranged this simple scene.”
“Yes, I
Know. ”
Crisp agreed, Angelina Jolie was full of confidence, I am afraid that only God knows how much she prepared for this day and how much she suffered.
Seeing that both of them were in good spirits, Wayne waved his hand. “Ok, let’s get ready, we’ll start shooting right away.”
In fact, it’s not difficult to start filming this opening scene. Steve, the male protagonist played by Matt Damon, accidentally broke into Amazon Paradise Island while being hunted down.
Then he was rescued by the heroine Diana Prince. In the setting of the film background, this is the first time Diana Prince has seen a real man since she was a child.
This scene is actually not difficult at all. As long as the heroine’s emotions are in place, there is no difficulty for professional actors. The reason why this simple scene is arranged is on the one hand because of the properties of this film. It can be said that most of the scenes in the whole film will chase the heroine, so Angelina Jolie must enter the state as soon as possible.
On the other hand, around the beach, those reporters from dozens of media, Wayne can’t make his first start-up scene frequently in front of everyone, even if it’s just for good luck, he wants to be in the first game. One day, the planned shooting plan was successfully completed.
As for the big battle scene between the female warriors and the pursuers on Paradise Island after the heroine saved the people, he was not ready to shoot it today.
The characters on the first day of startup are very simple, only the few scenes of saving people on the beach.
The scene quieted down quickly, and less than five minutes later, the eyes of hundreds of people all turned to the direction sitting behind the director’s monitor.
With the megaphone in his hand, Wayne walked slowly out from behind the director’s monitor. He checked it carefully at the end. Matt Damon, surrounded by six cameras with different high and low angles, briefly communicated with the lighting supervisor. After a moment, he finally nodded to Gilmour.
“Wonder Woman, scene one, act one…”
Chang remembered the assistant director’s signal, raised the record shot in his hand, and placed it in front of Zhu Zhu’s camera lens. At the same time, except for the sound of the waves, the only sound of the scene was quiet. “Start now.”
With a “snap” sound, the male protagonist, surrounded by multiple cameras, lay motionless on the beach with the surging waves as the scene board was laid down.
The whole process lasted up to three or four seconds, and Wayne, who was watching from a close distance, simply shouted into the loudspeaker, “cut.” The cameras surrounding the male protagonist then dispersed.
This is just the beginning of a cutscene, mainly to give the male protagonist a brief close-up and introduce his situation.
Without any rest, the camera crew quickly returned to the reserved position, and everyone looked at Angelina Jolie. Until she walked up to the male protagonist, the scene recorder started the scene record board in her hand again.
There is no doubt that this is a well-functioning behind-the-scenes team. From the camera crew to several videographers and lighting engineers, down to the small scene recorder, they all entered the working state in an instant.
This is also the benefit of the mature behind-the-scenes team. They are all familiar with each other and Wayne’s work style, so there is no pause at all, and the shooting of the next shot starts directly.
Hearing the sound of the board, Angelina Jolie in front of the camera leaned down and knelt on the beach, with deep curiosity in her eyes, looking at the man lying on the ground and being rescued by her.
With sea water on her face, she stretched out her right hand, wanting to touch the face of this man who was different from her, but before her hand touched the other’s face, she pulled back with reason and curiosity.
“Cough, cough…”
At this moment, Matt Damon, who was lying on the beach, woke up at the right time.
“!”
There was no room for the two of them to perform, and Wayne’s voice suddenly rang out at the scene. A cameraman who followed the filming in and out of the male and female protagonists also stepped back a few steps for the first time. All the old staff of the crew knew that there must be something that made the director dissatisfied.
“Hey, Miss Julie, listen!”
Everyone around, as if they didn’t see the director’s actions, lowered their heads and sorted out the work at hand. There were only two male and female protagonists left, all with puzzled faces, looking at the ice cube face and walking towards them, while speaking coldly and without emotion.
“Who swears to tell me that there is no problem? You just dragged this man back from the sea, ok? Put away your lightheartedness, what I need is your state after intense exercise!
Do you need me to teach you what the post-exercise state is? His heart beat faster, he gasped slightly, combined with the curiosity of seeing a man for the first time. Eyes, I need you to use your eyes to show the emotions you should have! ”
Facing Wayne who was completely different from usual, whether it was Angelina Jolie who was reprimanded or Matt Damon who looked innocent, all of them felt a little bit of a time and space disorder for a while.
Fortunately, the woman’s reaction was quick, like a pupil who made a mistake, nodding frantically to admit her mistake without hesitation.
“Fix their makeup, reset them all, and do it again!”
Frowning slightly, Wayne waved to the surroundings, turned and walked out of the center of the camera. Sometimes actors are like that, you have to allow them to make the stupidest mistakes, but you have to give them full warning the first time they make a mistake, it must not become the norm.
“Don’t worry about it, as soon as the crew goes into operation, the boss will look like this.”
Lily, the makeup artist, helped Angelina Jolie tidy up her clothes a little. Seeing the two protagonists, there was a hint of surprise on her face. She shrugged and explained.
Matt Damon turned his head slightly and glanced in the direction of Wayne covertly. “The look on director Greenberg’s face just now, I thought I saw a robot…”
Lily laughed softly. “Like ice without emotion.”
“That’s right!” Angelina Jolie nodded frantically, like a chicken pecking at rice.
“I have a piece of advice for you, Miss Julie.”
Seeing that no one was paying attention, makeup artist Lily thought about it, looked at Angelina Jolie’s big eyes, and said in a low voice: “In the crew, don’t try to talk to the boss, as long as the work starts, in the He doesn’t have any human feelings to talk about. And the most important point, during the filming, you must not touch the leaf smoke or the like, definitely!”
Nodding silently, the male and female protagonists looked in the direction of the director together, showing a thoughtful look.
The crew fell into silence again. This scene was filmed for the second time. With the prompt just now, Angelina Jolie put away her casual emotions, and this time her performance was much more normal.
“Cough, cough…”
A camera, like the male protagonist’s point of view, continued to feature Angelina Jolie. After Matt Damon woke up from a cough, he looked at the face in the sunlight in front of him and opened his mouth. “Wow even.”
Angelina Jolie seemed to have discovered a new world, with surprises in her eyes. “Are you a man?!”
“Yes, don’t I look like that?” Looking at the beautiful face in front of him, Matt Damon replied somewhat at a loss. His head shook from side to side, and he asked subconsciously, “Where are we now?”
“Paradise Island.”
“What?”
“Who are you…?”
Just as Angelina Jolie asked who you were, the two of them turned their heads together and looked in the direction of the sea, as if there were really a large group of chasing soldiers.
“cut!”
Wayne’s voice sounded at the right time, and the two actors and all the behind-the-scenes staff around looked at the director involuntarily.
“Performed well, this one is great.”
First, he praised him without hesitation, but the staff around him didn’t show any happy expressions. They knew the leader of the crew too well, and knew that if they hadn’t called it directly, they would definitely continue to repeat this filming.
Sure enough, Wayne’s words rang out next. He leaned in front of the two actors, stretched out a finger, and pointed to Angelina Jolie’s lips. “Smile, Angie, smile. The camera has been showing you close-ups, and the smile is a little brighter.
You found a man you’ve never met. Be a little happier. Beautiful lips are your advantage. Show them, okay? ”
“Ok, I understand.”
Until Wayne nodded and turned to leave again, the two make-up artists immediately gathered around and urgently made up for the hero and heroine.
After not returning to the director’s monitor, he still folded his arms over his chest as always, standing outside the camera, watching the staff prepare.
Assistant Director Gilmour slowly approached Wayne after watching the filming twice. He also looked at the preparation scene and said in a low voice, “Boss, I found something here…”
“If you have any ideas, just say it.” He turned his head and glanced at his assistant director, seeing a hint of hesitation on the other’s face, he encouraged.
“Angelina Jolie is very beautiful in the camera, that kind of healthy, upward, sunny **** beauty, but…” Gilmour slowly organized the language, while observing Wayne’s face, while Said: “It’s just that her figure seems to be a little too hot, especially in close-up close-ups. The degree of hotness is far beyond my imagination. Do you want to cover it up with makeup and lights…”
“It’s not a bad thing, Gilmour.”
Shaking his head with a smile, Wayne explained softly. “This is her advantage, and what we have to do is to find a way to amplify this advantage. I hope that when the film is released, men all over North America, and even all over the world, will be crazy about her screen image.”
Hearing this explanation, Gilmour shrugged and said nothing more.
Obviously, neither Wayne nor Warner Bros. do not think the hot Wonder Woman is a flaw. Even in real life, even an idiot understands that a woman with a thin waist, long legs, delicate skin, beautiful face, and an incomparably masculine chest will never become a master fighter.
Movies are movies after all, and in some places, there is absolutely no way to follow the facts. If Wonder Woman’s image on the big screen is a fierce woman with a thick body, it respects the laws of physics, but who sees it?
Wayne folded his arms across his chest, muttering to himself as he watched the third shot start again. “Sexy is never a bad thing…”
In his memory, for a long time, DC resisted all the superheroes of Marvel with the film “Wonder Woman”. The result was the leggy Israeli actor who became Hollywood’s most sought-after female superhero of those years.
Although there are countless people licking Gal Gadot’s screen, no matter at the beginning of the film’s preparation or after the film’s good results, a voice still exists, that is Gal Gadot is beautiful, but not **** enough.
For the role of Diana Prince, the most classic is always “the original Wonder Woman” Linda Carter. This kind of voice is not without reason. Linda Carter’s body is very hot, coupled with the blue and red clothes designed in retro, the hot bomb-like body is vividly reflected.
In the end, even Warner Bros. couldn’t ignore the voices of fans, and decided to invite Linda Carter to star in “Wonder Woman 3” again, so that the most classic Diana Prince images of the two generations before and after could be seen together on the big screen. Appear.
Therefore, having a hot and **** figure is not a disadvantage at all in this role, but an image that is recognized by most audiences.
Of course, no one can deny Gal Gadot’s image. She really doesn’t have such a hot figure, but this one was born in Miss Universe and won the Miss Israel contest. Her figure and appearance are in line with mainstream aesthetics, especially those two The long legs completely made the fans ignore the small chest.
It was just a simple scene where the “beautiful” rescued the “male protagonist”. The crew struggled from morning to noon before finally getting Wayne to nod and shout.
The male and female protagonists, who thought they could easily cope, were all tossed and weak. After hearing the notice to take a break for lunch, they followed their assistants and left the beach for the first time.
Seeing that the two of them were sitting on the prop box to rest together, Wayne walked over with his arms crossed. “How does it feel? It’s more difficult than you imagined, right?”
Matt Damon shrugged. Now he doesn’t feel as beautiful as the sea when he first saw it. Hearing Wayne’s words, he grinned and made a vomiting expression. “Director Greenberg, can you understand what it’s like to lie beside the waves all morning?
I suggest you experience this feeling for yourself. Damn it, I can’t remember how many mouthfuls of bitter sea water I drank. ”
Just by looking at the other person’s demeanor, Wayne knew that Matt Damon was joking. The actor gave him a very good feeling, at least with a very high level of professionalism. It is impossible for a normal person to be comfortable lying on the beach for half a day, but this guy did not show any discomfort during the shooting time and time again.
“How about I give you two extra meals in person?” Shaking his head amusingly, he reached out and patted Matt Damon on the shoulder.
“never mind.”
“don’t want.”
Unexpectedly, the two protagonists looked at each other, shook their heads and refused without hesitation.
Angelina Jolie pouted. “I saw the Chinese food Nina prepared. That kind of thing is the natural enemy of actors. To eat a meal, it takes me three days of frantic exercise to burn off those greasy calories.”
Matt Damon nodded in approval. Don’t think that male actors are different from actresses. Even in the management and control of stature, men are stricter than women.
There are also types of women who are not born to eat fat. If an actor wants to make his body look stylish and have obvious muscle contours, he must strictly control his mouth according to the advice of a nutritionist, and usually insist on exercising and fitness. shape.
In this circle, it is difficult to be successful, especially those little people who have no background. You must know that Hollywood has never been popular with delicate and beautiful men. That type is not the aesthetic point of European and American women at all. Only Guy likes delicate and beautiful men.
“Ok, hurry up and rest, our shooting plan for today is only this sequence of shots.” Since these two people don’t like Chinese food, Wayne didn’t force it. Before leaving, he said, “If you want to finish work early in the afternoon, just Find the tacit understanding between you as soon as possible and find your best performance state.”
Everyone slowly spread out to rest and eat lunch. After observing the state of the hero and heroine, he also returned to his director’s trailer to enjoy the Chinese food that Nina specially found. Well, it’s just not that authentic.
In fact, for today’s relatively simple scenes, the reason Wayne is very strict is to find a state for the actors and crew.
As he said, the first day of shooting was easy, and he needed to go through a relatively simple job to get the huge crew into good working order from the very beginning.
It doesn’t take long, starting tomorrow, the big action scenes on the beach will be filmed. The war between Paradise Island and ** pursuers, the collision of cold weapons and hot weapons.
Of course, this action scene involving many characters was also very stressful for Wayne himself. So in order for the subsequent shooting to be smooth, he moved this important scene directly to the front to shoot, which also means practice.
“Jimmy and Christopher Rockencourt signed a financing agreement this morning, and the money has entered a specially established studio account.” While Wayne was eating, Nina opened her work discipline book. Begin reporting line by line.
“Bruce Rosenblum called, UU read www.uukanshu.com to explain that Los Angeles was hyping up Michael Bay’s remarks, Warner Bros. and Walt Disney, and tacitly promoting together, such public opinion, against the two The company is very beneficial, and basically the film name has spread all over North America before the filming is completed.”
Seeing that her boss didn’t say anything, she just immersed herself in using chopsticks to deal with a box of red and oily beef, she pushed the glasses on her face and continued to report in a low voice.
“The filming of “Chase” will start before this weekend at the latest, and director Wolfgang Petersen called and asked if you had time to make an appearance at the press conference…”
“Damn, that’s not how you cook beef!”
While Nina was waiting for Wayne’s answer, he didn’t expect that he left his chopsticks angrily, pointed to the red and oily beef in the lunch box, and said impatiently: “My tongue has failed, except for peppers, I didn’t taste anything else, shit, the Chinese restaurant you’re looking for, Nina, isn’t Mexican, right?!”
“Who knows.” The assistant raised her eyebrows. “I tasted it, and it felt pretty good. The director of “Fast Pursuit”…”
“It is impossible for us to return to North America before the end of our filming in Italy.”
Waving to Nina, Wayne lowered his head and lit a cigarette, not even looking at the lunch on the table. Today’s good mood was all ruined by this unsatisfactory lunch.
After thinking about it, he still looked at the assistant and said, “There may be several projects that will be launched recently, not only “Quick Pursuit”, but I’m afraid we won’t have time to go back when “King Kong” starts. You and Roland Ai Say hello to Murridge.”
“Ok, I see.”
