Chapter 486: Progress is slow

Despite all kinds of criticism and ridicule from the outside world, "The Wandering Earth" officially entered the filming stage after the start-up ceremony.

As a director, Dong Guofan has long remembered the filming process of the script, which shots to shoot first, which shots to shoot later, where to do the blue screen in advance to facilitate post-processing, and where to take the special effects production into account first.

Dong Guofan knows everything.

In the Donghai Film and Television Base, Beidou Entertainment and the Film and Television City have worked together to build a future city base dedicated to science fiction movie shooting, where many science fiction special effects scenes can be simulated.

Mike and Jaime also put in a lot of effort in this process, relying on the advanced technology they mastered, combined with the actual situation of the current "The Wandering Earth" crew, to give the best special effects scene construction plan.

Some places need to use special props to build scenes, such as the dungeons involved in the film, those huge planetary engines, etc., are built with physical simulations, although this will consume more manpower and material resources, but the captured pictures will also be more textured and more realistic.

There are still many shots that can't be modeled, so they can only be handed over to special effects companies to produce, and Mike and Jaime's new company, with the help of Beidou Entertainment, has also been initially established, and now it is finally slowly put into use.

During this period, Wu Hengjiang has been busy with the work of adjusting and scheduling, and many special cooperation contacts need to be handled by him, and he has also won a lot of support from the top, which makes the filming of the film more smooth.

Tian Ming and Chen Feng are monitoring some specific shooting details on the set with Dong Guofan, and sometimes, there will be problems such as inappropriate props and plot shots that cannot be completed, all of which require Tian Ming and Chen Feng to help Dong Guofan modify and reset together.

In short, everyone performs their duties, and the work of the entire crew is on the right track.

Of course, the actors are not easy, especially when filming the outdoor scenes of Interstellar Wandering, they need to wear very heavy spacesuits to do all kinds of standard movements, which is difficult for young actors.

Wu Hengjiang even directly loaned a professional coach to the space bureau to focus on training the actors' movement norms.

Among them, the most uncomfortable should be the heroine Zhao Feier.

She has a bad sense of balance, and she has a habit of motion sickness.

However, there are a lot of scenes in the car in her scenes, and they usually shake violently, so it didn't take long for Zhao Feier to start vomiting frequently.

It's very uncomfortable, my stomach is tumbling, my head is dizzy, it's really hard.

However, she is also strong, although she is very uncomfortable, but she persevered, and even the male protagonist Liu Qi next to her is full of respect for her.

"Sister Fei'er, are you okay, why don't you talk to the coach and rest for a while......," Liu Qi asked with concern.

Zhao Fei'er shook her head with a pale face.

"I'm fine, I'll be fine right away, don't worry, let's continue training!"

Soon, Zhao Fei'er returned to normal and continued to train with everyone.

……

The same happened to Chen Hui.

Chen Hui's role has a lot of scenes in the space station, which is a state of weightlessness, and the requirements for actors are higher, so the training is also very hard.

Because there is no condition to simulate real weightlessness for the time being, many of Chen Hui's actions need to be realized by using Wia.

But a lot of the back-and-forth flipping movements, whether it is filmed or acted, are difficult.

To this end, Dong Guofan, Tian Ming, Chen Feng, photographers, prop masters and trainers made various attempts and tried to find some ways to mitigate the flip.

For example, the space environment is made into a simulation prop that can be rotated freely, and then the actor hangs in it, turning the surrounding environment, and the actor hardly has to do too many flipping movements.

This greatly reduces the action requirements for the actors, but at the same time, the cost of props also increases a lot.

However, the results are not bad.

In the end, after some negotiation, for the sake of the shooting effect and the safety of the actors, a large number of Chen Hui's weightless shots adopted this new method researched by everyone.

As for the increase in costs, Chen Feng finally said calmly: "It's okay, let's shoot like this first, when the money is not enough, I have a way." ”

In the near future, the box office share of "Infernal Affairs" will be received, and the funds will definitely not be a problem at that time.

In short, that's it now, everyone is working together to make "The Wandering Earth" a good one.

If there is a problem, solve the problem, no matter how difficult it is, it can't stop the crew's determination at this time.

……

However, despite this, the filming progress of "The Wandering Earth" is still very slow, and it has even been nearly doubled.

On the one hand, because it is the first time for everyone to make this kind of sci-fi blockbuster, although everyone is psychologically prepared, the problems are still endless, and it is very troublesome to solve.

In addition, the filming of science fiction films sometimes requires a lot of scenes to be arranged for special effects and post-production, which greatly reduces the efficiency of the crew, but there is no good solution to this kind of thing, and everyone can only hold on.

However, fortunately, the male and female protagonists of the film are all young actors, and there is no other schedule except for "The Wandering Earth", and the length of filming time has no impact on them.

After taking over "The Wandering Earth", he did not arrange other work, but devoted himself to the crew, for which Wu Hengjiang, Chen Feng and others expressed their gratitude.

As for some other important supporting roles or actors, most of these people are also employees of Beidou Entertainment, which is very convenient to schedule.

So, although the filming progress of this film is really slow at present, there is no big problem.

It's better to work slowly and polish this film well than to make a big bad movie in a hurry.

Just when everyone devoted themselves to the filming of "Flow Earth", the film market once again set off some waves.

A foreign blockbuster film distributed by Rongxing Media will be launched in the Chinese film market.

Although the current schedule is tentatively set for April, the relevant publicity and promotion have begun to overwhelmingly.

According to the trailer, this is a monster movie with a lot of big scenes in it, and it is another commercial film masterpiece produced by Trench House!

Moreover, the editing technique of the trailer released now is very chicken thief, and the terrifying monster only appears in a few fictional shots, and does not show the whole picture.

That's very appetizing.

Therefore, many people are full of expectations for this film!
