Chapter 1122: A Wail
No matter how noisy it was outside, Leila wouldn't take it to heart. She is now concerned about only one thing, that is, how to make the movie look better and how to get a box office of more than 3 billion.
Many scenes in special effects films must be shot in front of a green screen, and if the clips watched on the big screen are replaced with a green screen, it is estimated that many people will laugh. And it's not easy to make a relative face to the green screen imagining what it should be. Just ask your opponent was originally a monster, but the director and props team put a soft and cute toy puppet in front of them, how can they show bitterness and hatred?
Fortunately, these actors have already had a lot of experience, and Leila is very good at adjusting their emotions and states, so the filming went quite smoothly.
The green screen part is not difficult for Lyra, but the difficulty is in the second half, where she needs to get the alien army to mess up New York.
Filming in the city was a headache for her, and she remembered the last time she was filming "The Dark Knight", the police station was almost blown up by residents who thought it was a terrorist attack because of the explosion she made.
It's okay just like that, like when I was filming in "Iron Man", there was also a scene of a battle in the city. The crowd of onlookers watched the excitement layer by layer, she didn't care, but she couldn't bear the newcomers and young actors under her control, and it was not easy to grasp the state. As soon as people's hearts fluctuate, it is even more difficult to capture the emotions she wants.
But the problems that gave her a headache before are simply kindergarten level difficulty compared to the current "Avengers".
This movie not only has a lot of battle scenes on the streets, but also involves a lot of extras. I believe that group drama is one of the most feared by directors.
With Leila's reputation, it wasn't too difficult to get permission to shoot a block. As long as she's willing to lose money, the shops lining the streets don't care about a day off.
In her free time from shooting, Leila also gave some blueprints. For example, the sky aircraft carrier she cares about the most, as well as the appearance of aliens, weapons, behavior patterns, etc., all need to be well designed.
There will certainly be many differences between aliens and earthlings, and why is Avatar so popular with so many people? It has to do with the fact that he created a whole new world. In that world, there is a unique way of behaving that can be clearly distinguished from the earthlings.
Laila also thinks the same, she doesn't want the alien image she created to be just an alien's skin, and the behavior pattern of an earthling person in her bones is still too fake, too insincere.
The original film did a good job of this, but Lyra was not satisfied, and she wanted to add some special settings to make the aliens flesh out, rather than like an emotionless tool of war like the original.
She remembers that in the film reviews of this movie in her previous life, many people complained that the aliens in the movie have not yet broken away from the traditional appearance of pests. So she prefers to design something that looks more like an alien than an alien zerg. But creative design, no matter how wonderful she is as a layman, it is useless, and it has to be designed by professionals.
The design here can't be a random design. You must know that any species has evolved, and human beings have degraded in many places that are not needed in the evolution from apes to what they are now. It's the same with aliens, if they live in a very dark place, they need a pair of big eyes, or a sonic organ like a bat.
If you casually ignore the evolutionary principle for the sake of image, you will be complained about by the audience.
Movies are hectic to shoot. Almost every day, Layla falls asleep with her eyes closed on the way home from Roy. If she hadn't fallen asleep, she must have something related to the movie on her hands.
In this regard, Roy was distressed and angry, she didn't know how to take care of her body. But in addition to being more rigorous in ensuring her three meals a day and enough rest, he did not stop her from continuing to be in such a focused state. He knew very well that the meaning of the movie to her was huge, and that distracting her at this time would be a distraction to her in other ways rather than a benefit. No one can kidnap someone else's freedom on the grounds that it's all for her good, can they?
A few months have flown by, and this year's Hollywood summer season does not have Leila's films, which makes many fans feel as if something is missing, and it also makes them look forward to Leila's new movie even more.
"I really like to watch big-budget special effects films, but why don't I get interested in them lately?"
"There are only a few films that are worth watching, and the rest is only cartoons that are more interesting. ”
"I'm looking forward to Leila's movies, only she knows what I like to watch, and only her shots can make me feel good. Hopefully her movie will be released soon!"
2010 was an interesting year, or rather a failed time for live-action films, because half of the top 10 at the annual box office were animated films. Like "Toy Story 3", "Shrek 4", "Despicable Me", etc., the remaining few are also live-action fairy tales, such as "Alice in Wonderland" and "Harry Potter".
Originally, this year, Nolan's "Inception" fought out among a number of films, but due to some relationships, this film has not been completed for the time being, and can only be scheduled to be released next year. Therefore, it appears to be relatively young in the box office rankings.
Well, for Oriental animation is synonymous with young age, but abroad it is a film that is more suitable for the whole family to watch together. Maybe that's why the box office can be a lot higher, right?
Leila just didn't have a movie released in the summer this year, which made FB wail.
It can also be seen from this that her own influence in Hollywood and the film industry is not at all negated by a small number of people's doubts.
The last thing he wanted was Cooper, who, after reading some of the people's words, angrily slapped his keyboard aside.
"Why do so many people like her?" he really couldn't figure out. In his opinion, it is a little girl film, who has deceived countless people's attention with childish means and rough movies. Think about it, she made her first movie at the age of 18, and exchanged 100,000 for a global box office of 300 million.
Is this possible?
Why can't anyone see that it's actually a conspiracy?
Countless people in Hollywood are making horror movies, and there are dozens or hundreds of large and small works produced every year, and if you count some small-scale sales that are not famous, I am afraid there will be a lot more.
But among so many horror movies, who can exchange 100,000 yuan for 300 million? No! Not a single one!
