Chapter 551: Journey to the Divine Outdoors (I)
After the crew finished filming the last two literary scenes in Tokyo, they began their journey of location shooting.
For this surreal work, Shinsuke Sato, who belongs to the new generation of supervision, insisted on integrating CG and real shooting, so as to create a "sense of incredibleness" that conforms to the style of the original work
His philosophy is embodied in aliens.
The onion star father and son, Tanaka star man, and Buddha star people who appeared in the first part are all products of Japanese special effects and computer visual effects.
For example, Tanaka was first played by actors dressed in special costumes, and then CG was used to synthesize movements that humans could not do.
However, that doesn't mean that location shooting isn't important.
On the contrary, the fierce fights on the actual residential streets are the highlight of the whole movie.
After all, the two-pronged approach of shooting on location and in the studio can make the movie look more realistic and the scene more shocking.
And the crew of "Killing City" is preparing to shoot the first outdoor action scene in Kobe City.
γγγ
Hyogo Prefecture, Kobe City.
Old Central Dump Market Block.
In the temporarily rented locker room, the two leading actors are chatting with affection.
Kiyoshi Sakamoto, who took off his clothes and was about to change into tights, saw Kenichi Matsuyama, who was one step ahead of him and topless, and teased, "Yo! Abdominal muscles are good?!"
As for his ridicule, Kenichi Matsuyama deliberately made the posture of Mr. Bodybuilder and responded coolly.
"Of course, my brother has practiced!"
And when Sakamoto Kiyoshi took off his clothes, revealing his figure that made girls scream, Kenichi Matsuyama also praised, "Yours is not bad... β
Due to long-term free fighting, boxing and other sports, Sakamoto Kiyoshi's figure has slowly changed from a teenager to a well-proportioned and beautiful now.
The six-pack abs and the slightly bulging biceps are all showing the master's strength at all times.
"Hahaha!"
The two guys who blew each other in business laughed in unison...
Before the start of filming, Kenichi Matsuyama kept exercising in order to make Katsu Kato look more stylish after wearing the GANTZ tights, and even increased 7kg of muscles in a short period of time, which also made his body line suddenly revealed.
However, having said that, Kenichi Matsuyama is a powerful actor with both good looks and acting skills among Japan's new generation of haiyu.
He is somewhat similar to Kiyoshi Sakamoto's path to fame.
Both played supporting roles in the hit TV series in 2005 and began to gain attention.
Kiyoshi Sakamoto is "Dragon Sakura", and he is "One Liter of Tears".
And what made the two intersect was the live-action movie that was regarded by fans as a "manga masterpiece", "Death Note"!
With his excellent performance in "Death Note", Kiyoshi Sakamoto has become the "strongest newcomer king" who has swept major film awards.
And his opponent, Kenichi Matsuyama, who played "L", also became famous.
Last year, in "Heavy Gold Rock Two-Faced Man" starring him, Kenichi Matsuyama relied on the film, sacrificing his image to play two roles, and his seamless superb acting skills won the Best Topic Actor Award at the Japan Cinema Awards.
It can be said that 24-year-old Kenichi Matsuyama is at the peak of his appearance, his popularity has skyrocketed, and he is most favored by TV stations and film companies.
According to Kenichi Matsuyama, after filming "Killing City", he will soon enter the filming of another movie.
And his work has already been scheduled for the second half of 2010.
Under such an intensive work schedule, he can still find time to exercise for the sake of the film.
Such a dedicated spirit makes Sakamoto Kiyoshi also admire.
Actors are like that sometimes.
When there was filming, I was so busy that I didn't even have time to go home and sleep.
However, after filming, there was a relatively long break.
It can be as little as one or two months, and as much as half a year.
Yuriko Yoshitaka, the heroine of "Killing City", even proposed a two-year vacation with the office after filming the morning drama!
The firm actually agreed!
I have to say that Amuse really spoils her.
Kiyoshi Sakamoto was thinking that if he told Sony that he was going to take a two-year break, then all the top management of Sony would kneel down and pull his trouser legs and tell him not to go...
After all, the economic and star benefits he created for Sony are the largest among all the artists under Sony.
Thankfully, he doesn't think that way now.
He is still young, although his status in the music world has reached a point where he cannot advance.
However, in the film and television industry, he still needs to work harder to be recognized by the public and the industry.
Therefore, this is also the reason why he wanted to be a supervisor and make a film himself.
Actors, always inferior to supervision, have a higher status and more power!
Of course, there is no conflict between the two.
After all, in Kiyoshi Sakamoto's future blueprint, the actor in the movies he makes is generally himself.
Self-directed and self-acting, it sounds very compelling!
γγγ
The action scene that is about to start filming is the climax of the first part of the movie, that is, the battle between Genno Ji and others and Seito Tanaka in the parking lot.
The parking lot used as an exterior location is an unused city parking lot in Tokyo, and in order to shoot this scene, the crew specially found more than 40 cars parked there.
The protagonist of the first scene is not Kiyoshi Sakamoto who plays "Genno Ji", but Kenichi Matsuyama of "Kato Katsu".
In order to hunt down Tanaka, Katsu Kato is about to jump through the vent and jump directly from the 2nd floor of the 7-meter-high parking lot to the 1st floor.
And at this time, although there is coercion hanging on the body.
However, in the face of the terrifying height of 7 meters, Matsuyama, who went into battle in person, still felt worried.
Before filming began, Kiyoshi Sakamoto also looked down through the vent.
"Whew! It's really high... β
"Nonsense, 7 meters, can it not be high?!" Kenichi Matsuyama, who was standing on the vent and was about to jump down, also said angrily.
"Are you scared?" asked Kiyoshi Sakamoto, who turned into a curious reporter, looking up at his partner who was standing on the vent, adjusting his mentality.
I saw Kenichi Matsuyama with a bitter face, and slowly turned his head to Kiyoshi Sakamoto, "I'm afraid, can I not jump?"
Hearing Matsuyama's answer, Kiyoshi Sakamoto was also relieved.
And jokes, proving that it's not a big deal.
So he also clenched his hands into fists and joked, "Of course it is... No, you can't!"
"Come on, I'll be there for you! Kato-kun!"
Before Kenichi Matsuyama could react, the assistant superintendent shouted that he had no time to continue joking with Kiyoshi Sakamoto.
"Act 132 of "Killing City", for the first time, prepare!"
βActionοΌβ
Syllable!
With the assistant superintendent's boarding, the first action scene of "Killing City" officially started!
