King of Special Effects

······

Three days later, amidst a series of firecrackers, the official shooting of "Zi Gaodi" began.

All the crew members gathered together for an important ceremony before the start of the film. It was the first filming, and Yi Yang directly prepared incense patterns on the set for auspiciousness. Everyone present had a share in burning incense and praying to Buddha.

"Good start, the new movie is selling!"

Yi Yang is the director, so of course he is the head of the case.

The only scene recorder in the crew was filming the opening ceremony with a video camera. In addition, an entertainment reporter from the Aiqiyi website came here to conduct a special interview and filming.

Interview the director, interview the actors, and some staff on the scene.

But Jiang Xin, the only big star in this show, couldn't come because "Rainy Night in the Palace" hadn't ended yet. Based on what he said on the phone, it was estimated that there were still about ten days left.

There is no heroine in this drama, so the so-called special interview really doesn't have any good topics.

After everyone took a group photo at the start, Su Yanxin, the director of location selection and assistant director of the drama, slapped his hands: "Come on, all departments are ready, one first."

There were a lot of onlookers, including people from all over the world. Tan Xincheng only recruited more than forty group performers, but as far as today is concerned, these people are enough. After changing their clothes, they all stood aside and waited for the show. .

Yi Yang also changed into a costume, which was filthy and filthy, almost every actor's was like this, and every actor turned his head in shame.

This is a battleground for hard-working soldiers, not a fashion show, and there is no need to be beautiful.

"Every department is in place, let's pick the easy ones first."

It was a good show to speak to a few groups. The first scene to be filmed was reconnaissance and was attacked by enemy fire. Only one of the dozen people survived, and this person was the scout played by Lu Yang.

Lu Yang's age is only a few months behind Yi Yang's, but just for this movie, he hasn't shaved since he received the script, and now he can't tell his real age even without makeup.

"Our makeup team has the easiest job. They only need to smudge the actors' hair, clothes, and faces."

"Don't talk nonsense, when the time comes, don't they have to come to make up the wound?"

"That's a technical job, Yi Dao, let's get started."

Yi Yang gave an order, and all departments made preparations. Xiong Wei took a few people from the props team to bury the bombing site and marked it. Yi Yang, Lu Yang and a dozen other groups gave speeches to arrive later. What position, and how will the extras die.

These group performers basically have no acting experience, and some professional things are difficult for them, so Yi Yang has to explain every action very clearly.

"Lu Yang, you will climb under a tree later. There are a few explosion sites in front of you. When it explodes, you have to bury your head and try it first."

Lu Yang had read the script countless times and was very familiar with it. He held a carbine in one hand and a small book that recorded the artillery bombardment targets in the other.

Yi Yang stood a few meters in front of him, holding a handful of dirt in his hand: "Get ready, boom, boom, boom!"

Use your mouth to simulate an explosion, and then sprinkle soil on Lu Yang's head.

Although Lu Yang is only a young actor, he has been in the anti-Japanese film crew for a long time, and he still has a good grasp of the tactical skills used in filming.

Try it now, he is very standard.

"Very good, let's take this one first, pay attention, you are in front of the Japanese army's bunker group, your vision is limited, you can't see where they are, but they can kill you at any time, most people will Extremely nervous, you have to show it, understand?"

Lu Yang nodded: "Okay!"

"Okay, all departments are in place!"

For this movie, the crew had two dedicated cameras and two monitors, and Yi Yang also had his own place.

Go back to the chair in front of the monitor, sit down, and tell Su Yanxin to start shooting.

"For the first time in one scene, fight!"

"ACTION!"

Su Yanxin yelled, and the scene began to be filmed, and the picture of a camera was transmitted to the monitor.

Lu Yang, who was covered in fake branches all over his body, slowly crawled under a tree, and the explosion points in front of him began to explode, splashing mud everywhere.

However, before Lu Yang started to act, a child's cry resounded throughout the scene.

"Stop, stop, what's going on?"

Yi Yang stood up and drove towards the direction where the crying sound came from. It was a child watching the excitement among the crowd who was scared to cry by the explosion just now.

Forehead!

The first one is NG. It seems that the startup is auspicious, which is really unlucky.

Yi Yang had no choice but to walk over and help comfort the child: "Ma'am, this place is filled with explosives, louder than firecrackers, take the little brother away."

The woman with the child said she was sorry, and hurried away with her little grandson in her arms.

There were quite a lot of onlookers, so in order to avoid further disturbance at the scene, Yi Yang had to take out the loudspeaker and shouted: "Fathers and elders, you can watch here, but you must keep it absolutely quiet, such as cell phone ringing, coughing, etc. You can’t have any, and explosives are needed at the scene, so try to stand as far away as possible.”

Everyone retreated one after another. Under Su Yanxin's instruction, several scene directors took up red tape and surrounded the entire set. During filming, onlookers were not allowed to enter.

Re-bury the bombing point and continue shooting.

This time there was no interference, and the shooting went smoothly.

Lu Yang's acting skills are still online, but he has too few opportunities and no one to help him, so he can only play small roles all the time.

This time he can play the leading role, of course he cherishes it very much. In his words, he just tries not to waste explosives on the crew.

In this way, I kept shooting until noon before I took the complete five shots.

Judging from Jiang Zhihe's work efficiency, it seemed a little slow to take five shots this morning.

At noon, Yi Anqi and two other people drove a tricycle to deliver boxed lunches to the scene. The crew and crew all ate boxed lunches. As for the people who came to watch the fun, they would naturally go home when it was time for lunch. Yi Yang Of course, there are not so many lunch boxes for them.

Of course, as for the uncle who stayed at the scene and was unwilling to leave, Yi Yang still gave them two boxes of lunch.

The uncle was not too polite, he ate it as soon as he took it, and started talking with Yi Yang.

"Your filming of the battle is also true and false. Just this explosion, even a cricket can't be killed, and people say it, have you ever seen someone else's house open a mountain to blow up rocks?"

Forehead!

"Uncle, this is a movie, not a real war. As for the effect, you can watch it on TV after the filming is over."

While eating, the uncle smiled and said: "Just for fun (just like a joke), I see you just follow a large group of pussies (fools), and this meal, it's not delicious at all, come here to see this For a long time, I didn't even have to drink a sip of wine."

Although this uncle spoke the local dialect, Yi Yang had never seen him before, so naturally he didn't know him.

If it was the neighbor next door, Yi Yang would just smile and say nothing.

But when he said that, Yi Yang was not happy.

"Uncle, we are here to make movies, not to open a winery. If you want to drink, you can (go) buy it yourself."

"Ah, are you still not happy to say a few words about you?"

Yi Zhonghua helped bring water and tea to the crew, and he was not happy to hear this: "Brother, why don't you drink at home? You don't have alcohol for this."

Seeing his father like this, Yi Yang probably doesn't know this uncle.

Maybe no matter where, there are a few people who eat other people's food for nothing and are picky and picky.

It's useless to talk to him too much, just let him stay by himself, as long as he doesn't make trouble, he can talk about anything.
