Jeffrey Rush's eyes were full of greed, and he played with the gold coins in his hand, "Thank you, Miss Turner." You've brought back the last piece of gold. ”

"This is the last gold coin?" Keira Knightley looked at the beautifully crafted prop in amazement. It's just gilded. But her eyes looked like she was looking at real gold.

"Yes, Miss Turner. This curse works for everyone. Jeffrey Rush put away the gold coins and picked up the apple on the table, "Although your father, Bill Turner, the old shoelace, has fed the fish, but you can wash away the curse with his blood." ”

"How do you wash it?" Keira Knightley clenched her fists in shock.

"Blood, of course." Jeffrey Rush laughed, smirked. After all, it is a wish that has been wished for many years to finally be able to see the hope of completion, and it is naturally a little out of shape. He handed the apple to Keira Knightley, "Don't you really want an apple?" ”

"Stop!" Zhang Fan raised his arm and shouted, and then the entire set stopped.

After sitting in front of the monitor and carefully checking the footage taken before, Zhang Fan finally nodded, "It's over." ”

Jeffrey Rush and Keira Knightley were visibly relieved. This kind of long-term shooting with a large span is definitely a very heavy test for the actors.

Long-shot shooting is not only stressful for the actors, but also for the crew.

For example, when shooting, several cameras have to run for a long time, and the attention of several cameramen is highly concentrated for a long time. Because the slightest mistake will lead to the failure of the entire long lens, no one wants to take this responsibility.

In addition to the videographers who need to pay attention, the staff who stand on the periphery holding up the reflector and hold the long microphone to record are also very hard. These tools are not light, and even the best physical fitness can not carry them for a long time. But this is work, and no one can do it.

Zhang Fan naturally knew that these employees were working hard, and he had promised all the staff when the filming officially started that when the film was released and achieved good results, he would send a red envelope to each employee.

Like Huaxia, Americans also have red envelopes. It's just that people call it a bonus. Zhang Fan is very direct, giving out red envelopes is sending red envelopes, and directly sending stacks of green dollars in red envelopes to employees.

For Zhang Fan's custom from China, the company's employees are very agreeable, and get used to this way in the shortest possible time. And Zhang Fan's reputation in Hollywood is very good, and no one will not believe in his promises. As for whether the film will achieve good results after its release, the employees are even more confident than Zhang Fan himself. After all, since Zhang Fan came to Hollywood, the movies he has shot have never failed!

After carefully examining the footage to make sure there was nothing missing. Zhang Fan shouted again to greet everyone: "The next shot is ready!" ”

Zhang Fan has always been urging the filming progress. Because if you want to be released in the summer, the filming schedule must be accelerated. After all, there are a lot of shots in this movie that require the use of special effects. Footage of cursed pirates turning into skeletons in the moonlight would cost ILM a fortune to make.

Industrial Light & Magic has received a lot of jobs from various companies, and even if Zhang Fan adds money, it will take a long time to complete. And Zhang Fan wants to take the initiative to beg others to do things.

And Zhang Fan has already made up his mind at this time, if he wins Disney, the first thing he has to do is to eat George Lucas's Lucasfilm!

Not just for the rights to Star Wars, but more importantly to take down Industrial Light & Magic! This is the king of the best of the best in the field of computer special effects!

After Zhang Fan announced that filming would continue, the actors who had taken a break came to their respective positions again to pose as if they were pressed and paused. As for the crew, they don't have much time to rest, and they are all busy preparing for filming.

It's hard to find a job now, and it's hard to make money. Zhang Fan gave the crew a very high salary, and there was also a reward stimulus of red envelopes. No matter how hard the work is, the crew is not willing to give up. You must know that even in the crews of several major Hollywood companies, it is impossible to get so much money, and it is equally hard to work. If it is in other small crews, there may even be a bad situation where you can't get paid for your work. After all, those studios, small film companies and other things are going to go out of business, and they can't get anything except some tables, chairs and benches!

This kind of thing has hardly happened to Zhang Fan, at least in Zhang Fan. Because relatively speaking, Zhang Fan's treatment here is the best in the whole of Hollywood.

When filming in Los Angeles, the accommodation was at the Hilton Hotel. Meals are all meals in five-star hotels, not to mention generous salaries and bonuses.

After everyone was in place, Zhang Fan waved his hand, and the new shooting officially began.

Enraged, Keira Knightley pulled out the dinner knife she had hidden and stabbed Jeffrey Rush. However, he was shocked to see that Jeffrey Rush pulled out the dinner knife as if he was fine. Not even the slightest blood stain oozes from the wound!

A panicked Keira Knightley screamed and ran to the side, which was in the direction of the deck. Of course, the inside of the set is just a green screen exterior scene, and the background of the moonlight and the sea will be added in the later stage. Thinking of this, Zhang Fan was even more eager for industrial light and magic.

A group of actors who had been ready for a long time appeared in front of the camera, dressed in funny green jumpsuits, and even the top of their heads were firmly covered. And there are a lot of sensors on the body, and it looks very weird and sci-fi doing things like wiping the deck.

This shot is meant to show the crew after they are cursed, transforming into a horde of tattered and terrifying skeletons in the moonlight.

Naturally, it is impossible for traditional filming techniques to show the visual impact that shocks the audience, and the only way is to use the emerging computer special effects. These clothes, the green screen in the background, and the sensors are all in preparation for computer special effects. They had to make the outline of the action first, and then Industrial Light & Magic would do the post-production special effects processing.

In the plot of the movie, the Black Pearl is indeed a pirate ship cursed by the gods. Everyone on board, including the monkey, was mysteriously cursed. In the moonlit night, they all turn into skeletons, the living dead!

When Keira Knightley ran into the camera, Zhang Fan's eyes gradually narrowed. This part of the shooting is a great test of the actors' acting skills, and if the performance is not satisfactory, it is likely to be reshot many times. And reshooting is the last thing Zhang Fan wants to see, because it will affect the shooting schedule and time.

In front of Keira Knightley's eyes is an empty green screen and actors in jumpsuits and sensors who look like they want to make people laugh out loud. Ordinary people will most likely laugh out loud when they see this scene, which will lead to laughter. However, Keira Knightley used her acting skills to get through this difficulty.

In her performance, it seems that there is really a group of hideous-looking skeletons in front of her. She showed her fear with a terrible scream and exaggerated body movements. Not much else, at least there is no problem with appearing on the movie screen.

"Good!" When the entire set echoed with the terrible howl of Keira Knightley through the microphone, Zhang Fan raised his hand and waved hard, "Stop!" ”

Today's work is relatively smooth, and a few shots in succession are all passed in one go except for a few rehearsals, which makes Zhang Fan's mood much better.

"Director." Zhang Fan was watching the monitor play back the previous shot when Keira Knightley's voice suddenly came from behind him.

Turning around in confusion, Zhang Fan looked at Keira Knightley, who was still wearing a costume, "Something?" ”

"Director, I read the script and wait for the shot of falling off the cabin and being thrown up." Keira Knightley raised her hand and pulled the hair from her ear, showing her charm in front of Zhang Fan, "I want to play this scene myself, no stuntman." ”

As Keira Knightley said, the next shot is a drop from a height and then a throw and a fall. Although various protective measures are in place, there are still dangers. Normally, this kind of shooting is done by stuntmen actors.

The reason why the actors are not allowed to appear in dangerous scenes in person, but because they pay stuntmen to act, is not because the film companies care about the safety and physical condition of the actors. It's because once the actors are accidentally injured at such a time, the previous investment is equivalent to all the waste. In comparison, the cost of stuntmen is much smaller.

"Are you sure?" Zhang Fan is not a person who sticks to the rules, if the actor applies by himself and the threat factor is not very big, he will not refuse. Just like this lens, the height of the fall is not too high, and there are perfect protective measures, so the possibility of accidents is very small.

"I can." Keira Knightley smiled charmingly.

"Okay." Zhang Fan nodded: "You go and prepare." ”

Seeing Zhang Fan turn around and continue to stare at the monitor to watch the replay, Keira Knightley's smile stiffened slightly.

She didn't come to Zhang Fan to appear in this scene for herself. The main thing is to have more contact with Zhang Fan!

At this time, what kind of identity and status Zhang Fan is in Hollywood, he may not be very clear. But the people around me are very clear. He's rich, he's talented, and he's powerful in Hollywood!

With these three things, even an old man in his seventies and eighties can attract countless beautiful women to pounce. Not to mention a young and strong man like Zhang Fan. As for race, nationality, skin color, etc., in the face of the previous conditions, everything is just floating clouds.

It's a pity that Keira Knightley's flattering eyes thrown to Zhang Fan this time were ignored.
