To say that "Gravity" actually belongs to the kind of movie with very few actors, except for Fu Luo and Nicolas Cage, there are probably only two small roles that show their faces and quickly hang up, and this relationship is quite simple.

Then, under Alfonso Cuarón's introduction, Fulo went on to get to know Emmanuel Nubezki and David Heyman.

The former is a photographer who has been nominated for four Academy Awards for Best Cinematography, and in the future, he will win the Oscar for Best Cinematography for three consecutive years with "Gravity", "Birdman" and "The Revenant".

The latter's David is one of the producers sent by Warner Bros., and the very famous "Hariper Pain" series of movies is the producer of this role.

As we all know, Hollywood's crew is a producer-centric system, which is completely different from China's director-centric system.

Just like when Zhang Yi filmed "The Great Wall" in the future, because it is a Hollywood production model, it is also a producer-centered system, so Lao Mouzi's film materials after shooting every day must be sent to the United States for the producer to review, and if it passes, it will continue to be filmed, and if it does not pass, it will be remade.

Presumably, Zhang Yimou, who is accustomed to taking care of everything, still feels more or less constrained when filming "The Great Wall".

If you really want to talk about it, there is probably no director who likes to have a bunch of producers squatting on his head, but there is no way, unless he can mix with Spielberg and Cameron and a few other people, or he can only squat obediently.

At the beginning of the preparations, Dune had already decided to invest $50 million in the Gravity project.

Later, First Pictures also joined in, also investing $30 million, and the remaining $70 million will be taken over by the Warner Bros. family, with a total investment of $150 million, the absolute standard of top blockbusters.

Therefore, Dune and First Pictures also sent producers over, and in addition to Jiang Xiaoyu on the Dune side, Adam West, the head of Dune's US office, also became one of the producers.

As for First Pictures, it is a middle-aged man named Wang Shuiyang, about thirty years old, who can be regarded as his subordinate, and is also the head of the production department of First Pictures.

And then it's not just the producers, but there are also Dune staff in some important positions, and they are fully involved in the production of this film anyway, which has both the meaning of supervision and learning.

After all, Dune and First Pictures have invested 80 million US dollars, and at the current exchange rate, there are more than 500 million yuan, which is not a small number, and it is not too careful.

In addition, it is not worth mentioning that Fu Luo got an unprecedented $20 million plus 15% salary in the movie "Gravity", and directly squeezed into the world's top actors.

In other words, Sandra Bullock, the heroine of "Gravity" in her memory, also received $20 million plus 15% of her salary, and finally got $70 million+ in the end.

If the situation remains unchanged in the future, that is to say, Fu Luo is also likely to get a return of 70 million US dollars + with a single film, which can be regarded as a new record in Asia.

To say that he can have such a high salary, he has starred in "500 Days with Shamo", "2012", "Fast Pursuit", and "Crime Alliance".

Because the cumulative box office of these four films has reached 2.6 billion US dollars, every dollar paid to him can bring nearly 70 US dollars in return, which naturally raises his commercial value to the sky.

As soon as he talked about the two movies "Fast Pursuit" and "Crime Alliance", Fu Luo suddenly thought of "Fast Pursuit 2" and "Fast 5", which will be officially released this summer.

The former, after Paramount bought the complete copyright in his hands, immediately started the production of the second part, and coincidentally, the actor actually found Keanu Reeves, a hard-working Hollywood star, and the historical inertia coincided again, and I don't know how the screenwriter will make up the story.

As for why Lao Ji is a bitter man, Lao Tzu is a drug dealer, Lao Niang is a stripper, her daughter died when she was born, her girlfriend was in a car accident two years later, and her sister, who has been dependent on her since childhood, also has leukemia, this kind of life falls on a big Hollywood star, then it is conceivable.

It may be that Lao Ji has seen through the world, so his daily life is like a bum, unkempt, and there is no image of a big star at all.

Inexplicably, Fu Luo really hopes that "Fast Pursuit 2", a movie that has nothing to do with him, can achieve a good result.

and the latter, which is completely different, "Furious 5", which will be officially released on April 28th, and he is particularly curious about what this movie has become.

In any case, after Fu Luo had a brief acquaintance with many people, Alfonso Cuarón took him on a tour of the set.

Then a strange boxy building, about a few meters high, and a huge mechanical device that looked like a car wash in an automobile factory, instantly attracted his attention and attention.

After a closer explanation by Alfonso Cuarón, Fu Luo realized what the strange structure was, it was called a Light-Box anyway, it was about six meters tall and three meters wide, and it looked like a box with a hollow inside.

Of course, the most special place is that the inner wall of the light box is composed of 196 LED panels, with a size of 0.6×0.6 meters, and above such an area, there are 4096 LED lights, if you want to make an analogy, it is probably a huge kaleidoscope of rectangles.

The role of this thing is to use the computer to control the brightness and color change of the LED lights, and then assist the camera to use the light, and the importance of lighting for a movie is self-evident.

In addition, these panels can also show internal images such as space and spaceflight, so that when the actors perform in the light box, they no longer need to imagine in front of the green screen, and it is definitely more immersive.

Anyway, this light box is Fu Luo's next main battlefield, and many scenes will be filmed in such a box, which is completely different from the shooting situation in the likeness, such a movie with CG effects except for the actors' faces, which is really a bit subverting the tradition of using green screen to shoot science fiction films.

Of course, there will still be some shots in "Gravity" that will still use green screens, and not all of them will be discarded.

After explaining the light box, Alfonso Cuarón continued to explain the purpose of the huge mechanism, which was actually an auxiliary to the IRIS system of the kinetic camera equipment Bot &Dolly.

To put it in layman's terms, this thing is used to grab the camera, and then the actor is fixed to a shelf, and then the IRIS system controls the camera from the computer to shoot the picture from various angles, creating the illusion that the actor is constantly tumbling in space.

Did you feel subversive again, I didn't guess that the scenes in space were filmed like this, the actors only need to make some subtle expressions and reactions, all kinds of tumbling and collisions are all the camera itself moving, when Fu Luo listened to the explanation, he felt amazing.

Originally, he thought that the film would be shot in a weightless simulation space, or in a large water tank, but the result was that the actors lay there and didn't have to move at all, and I don't know if this is a lying down to make $20 million?

In addition to these two major devices, there is actually a "puppet device", and the crew specially invited the staff who had carried out puppet remote control for the famous British drama "War Horse" to assist the film in shooting the kind of zero-gravity picture.

String puppet theatre must be known to everyone, probably like operating a puppet, with a rope tied to the actor's body, so as to manipulate the weightlessness that floats in mid-air.

In addition to these three devices, Fu Luo also saw a lot of partial sets of spaceships, which were quite rough, and without post-processing of special effects, he could not see what it was at all, and here, he really wanted to sigh at the charm brought by technology.

After visiting the crew, it is natural that filming will not start immediately, because there is a final round of equipment adjustment today, after all, they are all high-tech things, and they must be verified repeatedly.

And Fu Luo did not leave the crew, but communicated with directors Alfonso Cuarón and Nicolas Cage about the movie "Gravity". For mobile phone users, please browse M. Reading for a better reading experience.
