Chapter 605: The Director is Busy

Filming a movie is very time-consuming, not to mention the preliminary preparation, the actor's schedule is a problem, NG is a problem, changing venues is a problem, and at the same time, you have to shoot a lot of materials, in order to avoid problems in the later stage, you can't even pull the cutscene.

However, it is not a problem in the crew of "Stray Fish", first, all the actors are there, and they can shoot when they are called, without coordinating time and waiting for the actors to arrive. Second, there are mostly professional actors, and children are performing in their true colors, and there are not many NG cases. The only unavoidable problem is changing shooting scenes.

In addition, the legendary girl is too legendary, the brain is the same as the computer, everything has been seen from the eyes, the brain has calculated, and the execution is very accurate, and it will not waste time.

The movie ran for 90 minutes, and she only shot more than 10 hours of footage. For other movies, it is more than 100 hours, or even hundreds or thousands of hours.

The long shooting time of a movie has a lot to do with this.

For example, if you think that a shot is good at the beginning, but then you think it is good at the next moment, and you are responsible for the film, and it is very likely that you will shoot it all over again, and choose the most suitable shot when editing.

Filming doesn't involve just one camera, and it's common to see three- and four-camera cameras. When encountering a big production, it is normal for more than a dozen machines to work together,

If the shot is one minute long, it will take two minutes to shoot twice, and it will take eight minutes to shoot with four cameras at the same time. And when editing, you can only use one minute, or even less. The extra seven minutes or so are completely useless and will be thrown away.

The legendary girl is too powerful to minimize this waste. Most of them are shot with a single camera. If it weren't for the need to change the shooting scene, she would have liked to shoot a scene like a drama.

Now that I've seen the action design, the legendary girl thinks it's good, so she will follow Yuanlong's advice and call Bai Lu to come over for trial.

During this time period, the young actors memorized their lines violently, but the time was too tight, and they didn't see the script in advance, so they could only cram.

I heard that Yuanlong and Bai Lu are going to play each other. These guys don't memorize words anymore. Hula went over, waiting to see the excitement.

Bai Lu was helpless and complained to Yuanlong: "You want to play me to death." ”

Yuan Long ignored his nonsense and began to explain the movements. It took more than ten minutes to talk about it and compare the paintings. Bai Lu asked, "Do you need to be so exaggerated?"

It's an exaggeration. The first fight is dangerous. Yuanlong has a misunderstanding with Bai Lu, who hides his identity. Trying to catch him, he jumped off the overpass, jumped off and caught up with the fight. Playing on the street for two minutes in a row, what garbage cans and bicycles are all added to the action, which is particularly crazy.

Yuan Long explained the action, found props to simply arrange the scene, pretended to jump off the bridge, and began to fight with Bai Lu.

The two of them really played for two minutes, two wonderful minutes, very real and good-looking, and they actually passed the test once without cooperating.

The legendary girl is very satisfied, and she has this tacit understanding for the first time, and I believe that it will not be easy to NG when shooting.

Because of this action scene, he deliberately had a ten-second deep conversation with Bai Lu: "You are a producer, and if you want to get back the money you invested, you'd better be serious;

Bai Lu replied: "I'm a duck, and I was caught up by you." "Agree with the legendary girl's statement in disguise.

At this point, the conversation ended, and Bai Lu and Yuan Long went to study martial arts moves.

Overall, the martial arts action is quite safe, and the most exciting are the two chase scenes in the middle and end of the film.

The scene in the film is a bad guy driving, chasing on the white road, climbing the building and climbing the wall in order to catch up with the car, doing everything. At the end of the film, the bad guys run around on motorcycles, taking small roads, vegetable markets and other places, and Bai Lu continues to play parkour shots. But the good thing is that at the end of the film, Yuan Long ran with him, and the two tossed together.

The most troublesome part of these two scenes is not parkour, but the erection of the camera, one scene has to cross three streets, and one scene has to walk around the market and alleys, and it takes a day to make preliminary preparations, and before that, people have to be sent out to find a suitable venue and modify the action according to the situation of the venue.

In a word, Bai Lu was tied up by the crew. It was the first time in his life that he had spent so much time doing the same thing, except for the time spent in the desert.

Fortunately, there is a powerful legendary girl, who is like a computer, she arranges her time reasonably and accurately calculates the time spent in each scene, so that Bai Lu can be liberated faster.

The crew only stayed in the film and television city for six days, and after filming all the shots of this place, they quit the lease and left the scene.

Then he wandered around the city, filming in many places, often using 20 minutes to set up a machine, filming for three or five minutes, and then retreating.

This situation lasted for five days, and on the sixth day, I borrowed a local police station to make up some exterior shots.

The next day, it was the highlight of the whole movie, with three outdoor fight scenes and two chase scenes, all filmed at the last moment.

At this time, everyone knew that the filming of Lu Dao was coming to an end, and they couldn't help but feel the strength of the legendary girl, other people's filming took two or three months to be short, and the legendary girl only took 12 days, if you are lucky, all the action scenes will be filmed today and tomorrow, and you can finish it in 14 days.

Even Bai Lu, who has always been blind, admires the legendary girl, who is too smart.

There was once a very legendary "East Becomes West", which is said to have been filmed in only 12 days, and a well-known domestic female director filmed a love drama in 19 days. The legendary girl is making a movie for the first time, one is inexperienced, the other is hasty, if you do it all over again, you will definitely end the shooting in a shorter time.

The first scene is set against the backdrop of the overpass near the bus stop and the street below the bridge, which can be seen all over the Third Ring Road. Find a random place, set up four machines, and start shooting, Yuanlong began to fight with Bai Lu.

The most thrilling place is the Yuanlong jumping off the bridge, unprotected and slammed, obviously going crazy rhythm.

Fortunately, with good luck, nothing went wrong, and after more than two minutes of fighting, Bai Lu ran into the distance, and the camera ended.

After this shot was completed, Yuan Long was very happy, he regarded this shooting as a warm-up for his film, and he could actually shoot the martial arts action with a long shot, and there were no mistakes, in addition to the good skills of the two of them, their luck was even better.

Solve an action scene in this way, change places and continue filming.

Bai Lu is good at fighting, and he is also good at doing these actions, and by three o'clock in the afternoon, all three action scenes were filmed, and the most time-consuming thing was to install equipment and change venues. There are a total of four fight scenes, and the last one is indoors, which is filmed at the end of the filming.

Seeing that it was still early, the legendary girl asked everyone to disband and rest, and took the staff and Bai Lu and Yuan Long to familiarize themselves with the venues of the two chase scenes, and made preparations by the way.

In order to avoid accidents, these places must be closed to the streets. The vegetable market does not have to be closed, but the staff will appear in the market to maintain order while acting as extras.

Bai Lu and Yuan Long were familiar with the venue, and they were recognized after a while.

In the first few days of start-up, Bai Lu and Yuanlong were on the entertainment news for several days in a row, and they even made headlines on the first day.

When Toutiao Bai made headlines again, many people were helpless, and it was not over, so they reappeared after only two days? Not only did they appear, but they also dragged Yuanlong? Are you forming a group to brush the headlines?

When I saw that there were still first-line stars such as He Xiaohuan and Mingchen in the news, I confirmed that it was indeed a group to brush the headlines.

Because of the reports for several days, the matter spread, and more people were curious, Toutiaobai actually acted in a movie? What kind of rhythm is this? Could it be that a chef who doesn't want to be an actor is not a good trumpeter?

Anyway, Bai Lu and Yuan Long were recognized, and it was a little difficult to get familiar with the scene, so they had to find an excuse to leave quickly. The legendary girl didn't have time to pay attention to them, and was leading the staff to find the best place to place the camera.

Because of these two scenes, the crew temporarily rented two more machines, and when the time came, six cameras were filmed at the same time, so as to shoot the best shots in one go.

It is difficult to find a location, this search is an hour, if it is a high seat, you have to negotiate with the house or business, and ask for consent. Then I have to negotiate with the traffic police department about road closures, fortunately, the legendary girl has a good family background, and after a phone call, the government department has to give more face.

Next, go to the vegetable market and say hello to the market management office. Nowadays, the vegetable market is mostly in the shed, there are doors at both ends, motorcycles have to travel through it, and the white road has to jump over the stalls, or step on the stalls to run forward, these situations must be greeted and compensated.

When going out of the market to the market, the motorcycle will turn into the alley, and there is a fork in the alley, in order to chase the thief, the white road climbs the house to look for it, and it is also necessary to negotiate.

At the same time, Yuan Long chased another thief, and he also had to run around, anyway, all the areas involved had to be greeted in advance.

Thanks to the legendary girl's early preparation, she has said hello before today, and she is just familiar with the scene at this time.

For the sake of his future film, Yuan Long suggested that the legendary girl should follow down with a camera and use a remote control plane to shoot in the air.

The legendary girl took the advice, so there was another camera.

The two chase sites are not far apart, and after filming in one place, you can quickly move on to the next place to continue shooting.

The legendary girl strives to finish on this day.

The whole crew, she is the busiest.

The director is very tired, he has to dismember the whole scene into one sub-shot after another, and shoot in the most convenient order, such as dividing school into four steps, one is to prepare for school at home, two is to go to school, three is out of school, and four is home. One and four use the same scene, so you can shoot together to save time. If you shoot in order, running back and forth is tiring and delays.

There are hundreds of sub-scenes in the whole play, and the legendary girl must be familiar with it by heart, without any negligence or omission, and at the same time guide the actors to act, and manage the entire crew by the way.

In addition to these jobs, she has her own work to do. Every day when the young actor memorizes the lines, she has to take the opportunity to listen to the business report of the company's employees.

She has a lot of business to take care of and is really busy. (To be continued......)
