Chapter 209 The Crew Who Was So Tired That He Vomited Blood, And The Actors Who Admired Him So Much!
In the next few days, Chen Luo has been shooting various scenes of Shire.
Even he himself didn't expect that it would be so troublesome to shoot just a Shire and a tree bag hole.
Not difficult, but simply troublesome.
Because all the shots have to be shot twice.
The first is the shot of the hobbit in the village, which needs to be shot again.
In this pass, the prop team specially built many "tracks" half a meter above the ground.
Let McClane, who plays Gandalf, walk on it.
And when it was necessary to shoot Gandalf's face and full body, the Hobbit actors could not show their faces, and then they all replaced them with children for shooting.
But important hobbit characters like Frodo, Bilbo, Sam, Merlin, and Pippin have to kneel on the ground and put the "feet" made by the props group on their knees.
Below the knees, wear green clothes and shoes, so that it can be removed with special effects later.
In this way, when shooting from the front, they are still "four six seven" short hobbits.
Chen Luo wanted to create the feeling of the hobbit being short, but he didn't want to use too many special effects. If he wanted to be as realistic as possible, he could only use this stupid method to shoot over and over again.
This is really killing me.
From the actors to the crew, to the director Chen Luo, everyone's daily workload is doubled.
Moreover, this is an incomparably huge test for Chen Luo's shooting techniques and camera angles!
He needs to find the perfect and natural angle, so that the short hobbit and the tall Gandalf form a harmonious picture.
And after returning to the hotel at night, he had to personally edit the two films, bit by bit, and piece them together into a smooth and complete film.
When he lay down on the bed to rest, Chen Luo was so tired that he was about to collapse.
The only thing that made him feel a little bit comforted was that the cameraman arranged by this kid, Emon, recorded the entire crew and his own hard work.
These will be seen by the audience when they look back.
Let them know that a good movie really needs hard work.
And with these, I can ask for more dividends with my mother-in-law...
Otherwise, it would be inappropriate for me to work purely for my wife and children without earning any money!
Even if I, Chen Luo, love my wife and children, I don't want the money.
But the brothers in the production team who followed me for a living, can’t be wronged, can they?
It was already late at night, but the "Lord of the Rings" studio was still busy.
They had just finished filming Bilbo's 110th birthday celebration.
Winter has not yet passed, and the night is extremely cool, even revealing a chill that penetrates deep into the bone marrow.
However, according to the description in the book, it was summer in Xiaer at this time.
Therefore, the actors are all wearing very thin clothes, even with a warm layer inside, they are still numb from the cold.
But in the shot just now, everyone was full of happy smiles, singing and dancing.
Fortunately, all the shots of the celebration were finished, and every actor was wrapped in an army green coat at this time.
This is what Chen Luo specially imports from the Longguo for the company.
This thing is ugly, but the thermal performance is really strong!
"Hurry up, move these devices to your home!"
"Tonight, I will shoot all these shots at once! Tomorrow, the whole team will have a day off!"
Chen Luo shouted.
The crew of the film crew are really tired these days, it is time for people to rest, and they still have to rest.
"Long live the director!"
"Oh my god, director, you can count us as human beings! I'm almost tired and vomited blood!"
"Hurry up, move the equipment! Hurry up and finish the filming, I will sleep on IM for two days!"
The moon is bright tonight, so according to Chen Luo's plan, he will use the natural light of the moon and the warm light of the fireplace.
Leave Bilbo behind the Lord of the Rings and bid farewell to Shire's part.
And the scene where Gandalf and Frodo confess what the Ring is and let him leave the Shire with it.
Finish it together.
In fact, this is even more of a huge project.
The props group specially created two Bilbo's homes that are exactly the same except for the different sizes!
In these two Bilbo houses, all the furniture, tables and chairs, tableware, carpets, chandeliers, fireplaces, books, teapots, plates, knives and forks, etc., are all exactly the same, even the subtle carvings are different. totally agree.
This natural and detailed sense of difference will make the audience feel immersive.
The old man and a group of actors immediately laughed, quickly took off their military coats, and entered the camera.
In so many years of filming, I have never seen such a dedicated crew.
The only difference is that the size of one of the homes is the size of a normal person's home.
Just for that little bit of detail, and realism!
They can only repeat each one at least a dozen times, and then let Chen Luo choose the most consistent two of them and cut them into a small plot......
They can only run back and forth with the equipment on their shoulders... Take all the shots twice, and try to be consistent!
But if you want to achieve the same effect in the two films......
When the shots of Gandalf were shot, they were in the little house, which made Gandalf look very tall, and when he took the little teacup to drink tea, it would be even more comical and cute.
"You all went back to sleep after filming, I still have to edit it!"
TO......
After everything is ready.
They can work so hard and work so hard!
In this way, when the audience watches the movie, in their view, the small and cute house and various furniture for Gandalf just now look normal from the perspective of the hobbit.
Wrapped in a military overcoat, McLean nodded in approval and sighed:
After this personal experience, I finally realized how special our director and crew are!
"Hurry up, gentlemen!?"
Then I found that the eyes of each of them were filled with the word "admiration"!
As an actor, to be able to cooperate with such a rare crew and director once is really the greatest luck in this life!"
In order to let the audience have this miraculous experience, the entire Lord of the Rings crew has worked hard...
And subconsciously, I feel that the hobbit is really short and cute.
But at that time, I just listened to what others said, and I didn't have any real concept in my heart.
Martin Freeman (Bilbo) said with emotion.
The actors couldn't help looking at each other......
And when it came time to shoot Bilbo, or Frodo, the crew needed to shoot in that normal-sized house.
"Old man, I can participate in this "Lord of the Rings" before I die, leaving the role of Gandalf for the world, and I will rest in peace in this life."
"The Lord of the Rings, Book One, Scene Twelfth, Scene 21 action!"
And another Bilbo's house, from the house to the objects inside, everything is one level smaller than the fat one.
"I used to hear people say how director Chen Luo and the Marvel crew he leads are different from other film companies, how excellent and professional they are.
Chen Luo shouted at McClain and the others impatiently.
"The actors are in place, hurry up!"
Finally, under the busy command of Chen Luo, the crew arranged the shooting scene in the tree bag hole again.
McLean and other actors looked at the crew who were still busy in the middle of the night, and Chen Luo who seemed to never get tired and was still directing everywhere...
The rumors are not even one-tenth of what I saw with my own eyes!
"The whole crew is waiting to get off work! Hurry up!"
