The filming was carried out in such a thrilling process, especially after entering the wilderness, the main scenes revolved between the three protagonists, so there was no too complicated large-scale scene scheduling. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info today's Fire Lion team is already comfortable operating such a scene.

The only challenge was that a few actors who had never ridden horses before, had to spend hours a day on horseback, grinding their legs and feet, as if the comedy had become their biggest challenge.

The next scenes, from the quarrel between the old police officer and the young mounted policeman, the separation of the murder team, to the old police officer taking the little girl protagonist to the wilderness shop to find out the news.

After Jeff Bridges, who plays the veteran police officer, enters the shop, Lindsay, who plays the main character, makes eye contact with two Indian children outside the store. In the old version of the movie, this section was obviously filmed to follow the old police officer into a small western shop in the wilderness, and fight with the cunning and greedy shopkeeper for a while, and then see how the old police officer pry the news of the gang out of the shopkeeper's mouth.

But since Sid's version is shot from the perspective of the little girl's protagonist, the camera stops at the old police officer entering the shop. And only use an oriental-style blank space to show the shrewdness and toughness of the old police officer.

When designing this paragraph, in addition to comparing the original film, Sid also referred to the scene in the classic old film "Seven Samurai", where the strongest samurai grabs a gun at night.

So Sid didn't copy the Coen brothers' way of filming this scene, but let the camera follow behind the old police officer and push it all the way to the door of the small store, just when the audience thought the camera was going to follow in.

With a "bang", the door not only closed outsiders, but also isolated the camera. Then everything in the picture changes to the over-the-shoulder shot behind Lindsay, watching two Indian children who were kicked down by the old police officer get up again.

Then in the sound of wind chimes, the Indian child who sat down again, Lindsay on a horse. Sid didn't spend much time on it, and just 10 seconds later, the old officer walked out again.

Of course, the time for the old police officer to inquire about the news in it can't be so short, but the time when there is nothing to do on the screen, every second will be infinitely magnified, and with the patience of modern audiences, 10 seconds is already the maximum they can endure.

Therefore, Sid is not confined to the actual time, but grasps the sensory time of the audience, which is also one of the basic skills of a director.

After getting the news of the gang from the small shop, they chased all the way, and on the way, they also met all kinds of strange people such as Indians who collected corpses, country dentists in bear skins, and so on.

Until the story advances to a mountain cabin at night, a resting place for a little rascal.

The first real tall grass of the story finally appeared, and green smoke kept rising from the chimney of the wooden house, apparently someone else. How can an old police officer with a gray beard and a little girl who is not yet an adult deal with the rogue bandits in the mountains and wilderness?

The old officer told "Maddie" to climb up to the roof with his overcoat and stand guard by the chimney. He himself walked to the door of the hut, and the bandits in the house immediately noticed the people outside.

"Who's out there!"

"We want to get out of the cold. The old officer said.

"There's nowhere to go, get out!"

After a few questions between the two sides, the other party impatiently closed the doors and windows. As soon as the old police officer made a gesture, "Maddie" played by Lindsay immediately covered the chimney with his coat, and after a while, the old police officer crouched behind the stake and raised his spear to the door.

The props team in the room immediately released cyan smoke through the crack in the door, and at the same time, Sid made a gesture, and the photographer immediately signaled Lindsay to act. Lindsay stepped forward, and the photographer with the hand-cranked camera followed her.

Although "Maddie" moved cautiously, the wooden roof immediately creaked, which eventually attracted the attention of the bandits in the wooden house.

"Bump!" a bullet grazed her foot and blasted open the wooden ceiling. Of course, this explosion is also a small explosive object buried by the prop master in advance, and it looks amazing, but in fact it has no destructive power.

The actors in the wooden house also followed the steps rehearsed in advance and immediately began to shoot outside, and the old police officer "Rust" immediately pulled the trigger when he saw this, and the actors inside let out an exclamation.

"I'm a federal police officer, who's in there?" shouted the old police officer, Rust.

"An Anglican and a waste. Immediately there was a shouting and scolding from inside.

"I'm Big Rooster Cowburn, and Columbus Porter and five marshals. We have a bucket of kerosene, and in a minute, we will set your cabins on fire. "The old police officer" Rust "did not hesitate to open his mouth nonsense.

"There are only two of you!" the man inside didn't look stupid.

"If you have a kind, you can try. How many of you are there?" said the old police officer, "Rust," and then fooled around.

"It's just the two of us, but my partner was shot and he couldn't walk. The man inside was smoky and coughed as he spoke.

"Are you Emmett Quincy?" asked the old officer, Rust, with a narrowing of his eyes.

――――――――――――――――――――

This encounter in the wooden house was the first official tall grass of "Earth Thunder", and because it was a night scene, it could only be filmed overnight. It was a new experience for Sid, as he hadn't really shot overnight before.

Originally, there were two battles outside the hut and an interrogation in the hut. But because the interrogation in the wooden house was actually completely inside, it was already filmed as early as the time when the town was filming collectively.

So now Sid and the others only need to shoot the battle scene outside the wooden house, and after the first close-up battle shooting, it only took four or five hours. So Sid decided to shoot directly in succession, and the next long-range battle scene in the movie.

This scene is a scene where the little heroine "Maddie" and the old police officer "Rust" are ambushed in the distance of the wooden house, waiting for the arrival of the bandits.

But while they were waiting for the bandits, the young mounted policeman, who had already left, suddenly rode to the wooden house, and looked at the bright wooden house, and he cautiously dismounted and walked in. The two protagonists suddenly get nervous, the bandits are coming, and they don't know anything and the mounted police step into the trap prepared for the bandits.

Just when the two protagonists were nervously hesitating whether to remind the young mounted police, the bandits happened to come running on horseback from a distance.

Too late!

The two protagonists can only watch as the bandits force their way to the wooden house.

This is the first time that "Earth Thunder" has a gripping fierce conflict and difficult choice, is it to save people or what is the enemy?

While they were still waiting to see what was happening, the young mounted officer came out of the hut and confronted the bandits, but he was too stupid to be one-on-four and was roped by a cowboy before he could shoot.

As soon as the horses ran, the young mounted policeman was dragged out.

Then, the old police officer "Rust" took advantage of the bandits' relaxation of their nerves and knocked over one person with one shot. The remaining three hurriedly shot back up the hillside, and they fled with guns on their horses.

One of them's horse was knocked over by the old police officer "Rust," and he was the leader of the gang! Just as he was running away on the back of another accomplice's horse, the old police officer opened fire repeatedly, but he overturned the accomplice on horseback with one shot!

Just when the old police officer "Rust" was about to shoot again, the gang leader had already run out of range of the rifle.

When they turned back, the other bandits were gone, and only the young mounted policeman "LaBeouf" was left in front of the hut.

Although the number of people in this wonderful shooting scene is small, there are a lot of shots of bandits on horseback and old police officers ambushed on the hillside, shooting each other, as well as some close-ups and close-ups. So this scene was filmed several times, whether it was a bird's-eye view of the big vista, or a close-up and close-up.

As soon as I took the shot, the sky was already faintly white.

"Whew~~, it's dawn so soon?" Sid asked in surprise as he looked up.

"Boss, we've been filming all night. Assistant director Justin Lin said with a wry smile.

"Then that's the end of today's shooting, let's go and rest first, and then start shooting tomorrow during the day. Sid also felt dizzy at this time.

――――――――――――――――――――

Just when Sid was in full swing to shoot "Earth Thunder", another matter of great importance to Fire Lion TV was finally opened.

The second season of "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire" is still in the final broadcast, but Lion TV, which has completed the rights exchange, has already begun to accept the AMA American Music Awards.

Although the broadcast rights of the AMA American Music Awards were taken from ABC, the selection and presentation of the AMA American Music Awards itself was indeed the responsibility of its own organizers.

Therefore, if Fire Lion TV wants to really win the AMA American Music Awards, it needs to coordinate with its organizers. And their organizer is the Dick Clark Company, which is quite famous in the North American music scene.

"Mr. Clark, please be seated. Old man Charles Schell said with a smile.

"Hello. Dick Clarke, as a well-known figure in the American television industry, has actually gradually faded out of his own company.

But in the face of such a major event as changing the broadcaster, he still had to come forward in person. What's more, the new broadcast owner is still a menacing rising star like Fire Lion TV.

So he was quite surprised when he saw that the CEO of Fire Lion TV was actually an old man of the same age as himself.
