Chapter 1134: Windfall
Professional is worthy of being professional, as soon as a bold monkey runs into the range of the crew's shooting, a tranquilizer gun is aimed at it, and it will be sent into Mengxiang in the next moment.
The anesthetized monkeys were brought into cages, and in less than half an hour three were stuffed inside.
Now the monkeys were frightened and squeaked in the canopy for a long time, but none of them dared to jump down again.
And Leila was satisfied, ignoring the monkeys, calling the crew members, and continuing the filming of the following plot.
In the afternoon, the monkeys in the cage woke up, and the existence of the cage made it impossible for them to escape, and they immediately became agitated. It was the first time to be in such a situation, which made these little monkeys also scared enough.
But after the crew stuffed them with something to eat, they were happy and ate a round belly one by one. Although they saw this scene, the monkeys in the trees still did not dare to come down, for fear that they would also be put in cages, and in their eyes life without freedom was simply terrible.
Taking advantage of the quiet during this time, Leila insisted on squeezing the three-day scene into a day and a half. He then quickly evacuated the area and moved on to the next location. After all the transfers were completed, the people on the island let the monkeys go. She was afraid that the monkey spirits would follow their group and run to the next place, and she would have to cry to death.
Knowing her concerns and seeing her next filming location, the people on the island told her that it was okay to be there, and that the monkeys were generally not there. One is that the trees are relatively short and they don't like to eat, and the other is that there are their only natural predators, a very large bird of prey.
He named the eagle by a more professional name, but Lyra had no idea what he was talking about. There is still a big difference between English and Oriental dialects, such as the bald eagle, even if you don't know what kind of eagle it is, you can guess what it looks like from the name. But if it's an English name, it's haliaeetus-leucocephalus, don't ask her what it is, she can't figure it out.
Even so, she learned that this eagle is very powerful, not only can it use seabirds as food, but it is also interested in animals that are easier to catch, such as monkeys.
Lyra regretted it after listening to his introduction, she had already set the filming location near this place when she knew that there was such a thing. Anyway, the terrain is also suitable, at most it is just to change the plot.
There must be no regret medicine in this world, and her regret has also turned into happiness after watching some of the clips she shot before. Roy and Zhang Guorong are both very dedicated actors, as long as the director does not shout cut, they will continue to act even if a stone falls from the sky.
So there are some shots, and from time to time there will be some scenes where some monkeys are messing in, but the actors are still acting. Perhaps knowing that those shots could no longer be used, the two often used their imagination to have some unexpected conversations. At that time, the crew laughed because of their performances and enjoyed them as a talk show, but after seeing some of the shots that she originally thought were going to be scrapped, Leila was surprised to find that some of those shots were unexpectedly interesting.
For example, one of the two leading actors is acting in a scene of looking for something to eat in the rainforest, and there are two monkeys who are curious about their movements, and they also follow their movements to find around. Especially when Zhang Guorong plucked a mushroom from the trunk of a tree, a little monkey also plucked off a piece and put it in his mouth as if he was making a declaration of victory.
It turns out that Leila didn't pay attention to the monkeys' movements when filming this scene, but now that I look back, I find that it is really a very interesting scene, and if it is cut into the movie, it may be unexpectedly praised.
Thinking about it this way, Leila's depressed mood in the past two days has improved a lot.
And the next plot is not so simple. In this area, it can be said that the most critical place in the whole movie. It is also the most dangerous time, and the actor also has to show his maximum acting skills.
Before filming, Leila repeatedly asked the crew to pay attention to the safety of the actors. Because all their scenes will be filmed in this place with a cliff, and the actors will also be "hung" on the cliff, and if they are not careful, they may fall into the sea with many sharp stones erected below.
"Shout when you notice anything is wrong, you know?" Leila told again and again before they went down, "Check your equipment a few more times, too." β
"Don't worry. Roy patted the rope around his waist: "It's going to be fine, I've not experienced more dangerous shoots than this before." β
Leila frowned and nodded, then looked at Zhang Guorong: "Do you really want a stand-in?" Compared with Roy, who has been practicing martial arts all year round, she is more worried about the safety of her "brother". If he had some accidents, she would never forgive herself for the rest of her life.
Zhang Guorong smiled slightly: "I don't care, the security measures are very sufficient." β
Leila is still a little unrelenting: "You are different from Roy, he has rough skin and thick flesh and it won't hurt if he falls, but you ......"
"......" Roy really didn't know whether to thank her for looking up to her "rough skin" or to be angry at her for being so obviously different. Does she remember that they were the fiancΓ©?
Maybe he should find a time to remind her, and if he could, it would be better to remove the word unmarried.
Zhang Guorong smiled and shook his head: "It's okay, I can do it." And if you use a stand-in here, the effect is not good. β
Of course Leila knew that, but she really didn't want to see any accidents in front of her. But with such a resolute attitude, she can only obey his opinion and let him really go into battle, I hope everything goes well!
In fact, she is really in a mess of relationships. How can it be said that her crew is also experienced in battles, and how can she even have problems with this safe work?
When everything was ready, the two were slowly lowered to the top of the cliff.
In the film, they are here for only one reason, and that is that they need to find their tools and some food. Inadvertently, they found the wreckage of the plane stranded beneath the cliff. But the topography of the island made it impossible for them to come around from the perimeter, unless they could find enough weapons to get rid of the snakes and some terrible insects on the way to the cliffs.
In the end, they decided to use their skills to climb down the cliff, and the best tools they could find were to see what else they could find.
If you want to survive on this uninhabited island full of dangers, it is impossible to be prepared without a little preparation.
The cliffs are very windy. Even if Leila said that Roy was rough and thick-skinned, her heart tightened when she saw him move a little bit because of the wind.
