Chatty Hollywood

Chapter 469 Mirage

"This morning is the moment we've been waiting for so many days!"

Charlotte said to the members of the "Mummy" crew with a smile.

At this time, they were standing on a sand dune in the distance of the location, setting up the camera and preparing to shoot.

Today, because the director said "we have been waiting for this moment for many days," the entire "Mummy" crew got up extra early——

It was still dark when everyone was called up.

——Although by the time we were ready to take pictures, the darkness before dawn had passed. Although the sun had not yet risen in the desert, the sky was getting brighter.

The crew first filmed a scene on the sand dunes where Evelyn, O'Connor and their party met an American expedition team——

"What are we waiting for here!?"

The extra actor who plays a member of the American expedition asked, according to the script. \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

"prepare for!"

Brendan Fisher, who plays O'Connor, shrugged and said his lines while riding a camel,

"The destination is about to appear!"

——As for what happened, O'Connor in the story may know it, but Brendan Fisher, who plays him, really doesn't know at all.

Although when facing other members of the crew, Brandon always acts like a lackey and loyal believer of the director, but in the end, he knows very well that he is actually just hugging his thigh.

When it comes to his relationship with director Charlotte Booth and even other senior members of Specter Studio, Brendan Fisher is just a little better than newcomers like Rachel Weisz, and cannot be considered a real director. In a sense, Xia's royal team.

While Brandon plans to work his way through the movie and squeeze in, right now he's not. \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

Therefore, Brandon had no idea how the director planned to achieve the mirage scene required in the script.

What he said to Rachel Weisz before was, in the final analysis, just to leave a good impression on Charlotte.

And now, while he finished speaking the lines in the script according to the director's request, he sat on the camel and stared blankly at the horizon where the sun was about to rise.

——It is also the location that the crew of "The Mummy" set up in advance.

Normally, although the sun has not risen yet, the reflection from the ground should still allow Brandon to vaguely see the scenery of the location.

However, the location seems to be missing.

Wait, it’s gone! ?

Brandon was about to rub his eyes, but then he remembered that he was still filming, and he was playing O'Connor who understood the truth. \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

He could only continue to maintain a confident look, looking in the distance in the direction where the sun was about to rise.

Then, the next moment, as the sun jumped over the horizon, the location that the crew of "The Mummy" had arranged in advance, no, it should be said that it was the ruins of Hamnath mentioned in the script, really shone in the hazy light brought by the sunlight. In a daze, his figure gradually emerged.

"It looks like it grew out of the desert!"

Rachel Weisz marveled in her heart,

"Or, falling from the sky!? The director can really predict mirages!"

At this moment, the artistic young woman Rachel Weisz was filled with admiration for director Charlotte Booth.

In fact, not only in her heart, but also on Rachel's face, there was a corresponding expression of surprise.

However, unlike Brendan Fisher, who plays O'Connor and needs to show "everything is under control", according to the script, Rachel's Evelyn was originally seeing Hamnut for the first time. The mysterious scene that appeared, so it was reasonable for her to show surprise. \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

And other people under the lens,

He also showed a more or less similar expression of surprise.

——After all, even thanks to science, most modern people are aware of the phenomenon of mirages, but very few people have actually seen them.

Fortunately, according to the script, everyone should be amazed in front of such a shocking and magnificent natural scene.

——Now this situation can be said to be a true performance.

All in all, this scene went by smoothly.

Next, according to the plot, there should be a clip of Evelyn, O'Connor, and the American expedition team rushing towards the ruins of Hamnut, who appeared in person.

——To put it simply, it is a camel racing with a prancing horse and a whip.

This requires stuntmen to take action.

After all, even if real actors can ride North African dromedary camels, it is still difficult to ride them in competitions. \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

——If they get injured, it will be very troublesome.

Not only the Hollywood Screen Actors Guild may intervene in the investigation, but even animal protection organizations may appear to increase their presence if they are not careful.

Therefore, it is better to let the stuntmen work harder.

——Division of labor and cooperation!

Fortunately, this scene is not long, and the camel riding competition is not intense. To a greater extent, it is just to show the Egyptian desert style.

——Although the location where this episode was filmed is Morocco...

"But how did this mirage appear?"

During the lunch break that day, Charlotte was in the director’s trailer.

Charlize sat directly on Charlotte, who was half-lying down to rest, and asked with curiosity on his face while shaking him awake. \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

——It was also the first time for the girl to see a real mirage. She was shocked and naturally had some doubts.

The first thing to suspect was, of course, whether Charlotte had used magic to cheat again——

"Of course!"

Charlotte admitted frankly,

"Do you remember Francis Farmer?"

"The woman who lived in symbiosis with the dragon beneath Malcolm's Sanitarium?"

Charlize tilted her head and thought about it.

"Didn't you say that you borrowed her power when filming "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone"? Alexis told me that she respected that lady very much."

"yes!"

Charlotte nodded,

"As a ghost born from a dragon, Francis Farmer has mastered many dragon skills - controlling mirages is one of them."\u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

"Mirage!?"

"A dragon can use its own mirage and its own ghosts to create realistic mirages!"

Charlotte explained,

"That's why I first discovered that there was a dragon lurking underground in Malcolm Sanitarium."

"And Ms. Frances Farmer also possesses the skill of dragons to create mirages!?"

Charlize understood;

"This morning was still a mirage. She created it!?"

"To be precise, it is the result of the cooperation between the two of us."

Charlotte shrugged.

"Frances Farmer's power was insufficient, so I quietly extracted a certain amount of Yin Qi from the underground of Shevanshaf and gave it to her as a material for making mirages. This is how today's mirage came into being - how So, isn’t it beautiful?”

"Yes."

Charlize's eyes were a little hazy, she seemed to still be recalling the beautiful scenery of the mirage,

"Although it is the effect of magic, this real mirage is much more beautiful and shocking than the one made with special effects - it will definitely shock everyone when it is shown on the big screen."

"That's good!"

Charlotte nodded, looking at the hazy eyes of the girl riding on him, she suddenly felt something.

He suddenly put his hand in from the girl's waist,

"Then, in return for seeing the beautiful scenery and for disturbing my nap, Sally—"

Before Charlotte could finish speaking, Charlize blocked his mouth.

——Use your own mouth.

Apparently, girls mean the same thing.

As a result, Mr. Director's trailer soon began to shake...
