Chapter Five Hundred and Thirty: On the Island
Yongxing Island
"A Yue!"
A muscular man stood on a bridge four or five meters high from the ground and shouted at the bottom, holding one hand in his ear to keep a gesture, and the other hand grabbed a big mouse-like thing.
Looking along the muscular man's sight, there was nothing in the open space below him. There were several cameras and photographers who kept a certain distance between each other. Not far behind the muscular man, there was also an electronic cannon. His arms stretched out, and he reached over to the high altitude behind the muscular man's head, slowly moving in an arc.
Under a shade of trees not far from here, Duane was sitting in front of the monitor, his eyes patrolling back and forth on several pictures at different angles.
The blue sky can be seen from the pictures taken from the bottom to the top, as if it had been washed, which is rare in the mainland. The sunshine shines everywhere in the places in front of Duane, and the heat rising from the ground, which shows that this is not in the mainland.
It is late February, and it is the coldest time of the year in all parts of the motherland. Jiangnan needs to rely on shaking to keep warm. Obviously, it is impossible to have such steaming heat and bright sunshine.
This is Yongxing Island, located at the junction of Sansha. After last year, Duan once again came to the South China Sea of the motherland to shoot. This time, Duan's work was much bigger than last time.
Last time he filmed "The World of Truman" on the South Bureau Island, Duane built only some ordinary civil buildings, most of which were houses, and the construction difficulty and investment cost were not very high. This time he built a different construction this time he built a theme park.
Well, it may be a bit exaggerated to say that it is a theme park, but at least there are still some big shelves on the surface, such as a commercial center covering an area of 28,000 square meters and a total of 8 floors, supporting squares, fountains, neat and spacious roads, corresponding hotels, souvenir shops, large supermarkets, shoe and clothing stores...
If you are circling and looking down in the sky while sitting in a helicopter, the central and southern part of Yongxing Island is now an exquisite city. Although the sparrows are small, they are all complete. Moreover, with this neat and clean construction style full of modern technology, this is not an ordinary first-tier city or Shanghai, and the supporting CBD is almost interesting.
Of course, because of capital and cost considerations, it is only better to watch from outside.
"Quiet!"
The muscular man had already thrown the thing he had just grasped into the open space below, and then grabbed one from the bucket hanging next to him, his eyes moved slightly, and shouted at the open space that was slightly off the past.
Duan looked at Jia Hongsheng on the monitor and just watched quietly.
That's right, the muscular man on the camera is Jia Hongsheng.
There are many problems with emotional actors, but one thing is that they are serious enough.
Just like Jia Hongsheng this time, Du An only asked for it. This middle-aged guy trained himself from a thin literary middle-aged man to a muscular man in just a few months, and his chest muscles stretched his vest.
Although Jia Hongsheng didn't say it specifically, it is not difficult for Duan to guess what kind of devil training he has experienced from time and results. If he puts this on the young and handsome guys who are just starting to appear now, he is too lazy to memorize the lines and just recites "1234" and rely on the post-dubbing to get away with it, he really can't do it. He may not be able to practice his requirements for a few years.
It’s better for the old guy to use it, but making movies does not mean that people’s will is enough. There are many objective factors.
"A Yue!"
Jia Hongsheng suddenly turned his head, turned a little and shook his fingers at the open space, his face unhappy, "Concentrate!"
As he said that, he snapped his fingers, then turned his head back and continued to look at the direction of the open space he had just looked at, but before he could continue to perform, a voice had already come.
"stop!"
The speakers make the sound very loud and far, enough for everyone to hear it.
After shouting, Du An called out again, "Everyone can rest for a while", then put down the speaker, and did not ask Jia Hongsheng to come over, but stood there with his arms around him, lowered his head, looked at the monitor for a long time, then turned his head and said to the person on his right hand: "Go and call Kang Junan, Ma Zheng, and Li He over."
After waiting for a while, people arrived.
"Director Du."
"Director Du."
Duane looked up and moved his eyes from the monitor to the three people in front of him.
I won’t talk about Kang Junan in the middle. The one on the left is Ma Zheng, the technical leader of the Industrial Light and Magic Resident Group: This person has a horse face like his surname, very long, not ugly, and not very rustic in dressing, but in a place like the crew, where handsome men, beautiful women and fashionable people are everywhere, it looks ugly and rustic.
The one on the right is not very good-looking, with a round face and no figure. She is the main prop of the crew, Lee Hyuk.
"Come."
Duane didn't say much nonsense and said directly: "I have a problem here. Let's see how to solve it..."
Du An described the trouble to them in detail: Jia Hongsheng did a good job of performing without real objects during the performance, and had rich imagination. There were several small details that made Du An feel very spiritual, but one thing Du An was dissatisfied with, that is, the sense of space.
From Jia Hongsheng's eyes, Du An only saw two space points, one on the left and the other on the right, and the others were gone.
He had told Jia Hongsheng about this problem before. In the subsequent filming, Jia Hongsheng obviously tried to improve, but he gave Du An a feeling of space, and the focus and movement of his vision were not enough, which was not full of realism.
“…It’s almost like this,”
Duane glanced at the two of them, "What are you going to do?"
Such temporary meetings often occur during the filming of this "Code Name X". Several people have become accustomed to it and soon enter their respective roles.
Kang Junan took the lead in speaking and put forward his opinion from the shooting perspective, "We may be able to divide the lens and divide the top and bottom into two pieces, so that there is no reference between them..."
Li He also put forward some opinions, "Why don't we punctuate it? Mark a few points on the ground, and let Brother Sheng look at it..."
However, neither of the two opinions completely satisfy Duan, either sacrificed the presentation effect of the picture, or was not flexible enough and not suitable for the complex requirements of on-site shooting.
In the end, he could only turn his attention to Ma Zheng, who had been silently thinking about his mind and had not spoken.
"Ma Zheng, what are you talking about? Let's talk about it from your later perspective."
He has brainstormed his opinions from multiple aspects.
Then he saw Ma Zheng hesitating for a moment and said, "There is a technology in our laboratory that is very suitable for the current situation."
"oh?"
Duan raised his eyebrows and said, "Let's talk."
"The internal name of this technology is motion capture technology. Simply put, it is to put a tracker on key parts of moving objects, use our system to track it, and obtain the coordinates of the three-dimensional space after processing by computers. This is the core data, and then they are peeled..."
"If you put it here, we can have someone put on the device and play it underneath. In terms of body shape, this is very suitable. In this way, there will be interaction, and the eye problems you are worried about can be solved. Moreover, after using this technology, the final effect of the post-production will theoretically be more vivid and realistic, and there will be no false sense of sticker movement. It can be said that the scene is the monsters you want, Director Du, are playing against Brother Sheng..."
Du An listened for a long time and was all good, and couldn't help but ask: "Why are you hesitating if this is so powerful? Use it for me quickly!"
Ma Zheng smiled bitterly and expressed his difficulties: "Isn't this technology still immature? It's just that after several experiments in the laboratory, it has not been specifically applied to real work. I don't know what complex problems you will face in the specific work. It would be bad if it affects the shooting of the film..."
Yes, it would be bad if it affected the filming of the film. This is what Ma Zheng was most frightened. After all, this is a super movie made 600 million yuan.
Duane didn't care at all, waved his hand, "What are you afraid of? Now this is the first experimental place for your actual environment! Do you also need special equipment or something? Just the tracker you just mentioned... OK OK, please call there quickly and send someone to the machine..."
