Warner feels that "The Matrix" is back in the United States to start filming, and it should hold a new launch conference. In line with the east wind of the awards season, the film will attract more attention. Chen Tiandu rejected Warner's offer without inviting or informing any media because he didn't think it was necessary.

He believes that no amount of good publicity for this film can retain popularity until the filming is completed. It is better to start working when the movie is halfway through shooting or about to be completed, which will not increase the psychological pressure on the film's main creators, and secondly, it will also leave him enough time to arrange publicity planning.

Because of the scenes in the spaceship, Chen Tian needs to shave his head, so the first to shoot is the scene in the "mother", that is, in the New York metropolis. During this period, many people were also surprised to see the huge spaceship props prepared by the Matrix Digital Special Effects Company, as well as a variety of strangely shaped mechanical squid, and huge gun arsenal props.

But this part of the shooting still needs to wait, and the first day of resumption of work is to shoot a night scene - chasing in the rain, which is also a plot that is not in the original work. This part of the lens needs to be shot with real scenes and blue screens.

There are more and more shots such as scenery, blue screens, models, and digital skylight paintings. In order to meet the requirements of keying, the actor needs to shoot in the studio of the blue screen, because in the blue screen studio, there is no scene, it is all up to the actor's imagination, and the emotional action of the performance is also required to match the scene in the composite picture, which is undoubtedly a challenge to the actor's experience and acting skills.

Moreover, the requirements for lighting and props are different from those of traditional shooting: the lighting personnel need to combine the background light to be synthesized, environmental changes including wind, rain, thunder and lightning, design the lighting in the studio, and some parts of the props will also be hidden in the blue cloth, and they also need to be seamlessly combined with the props to be synthesized in the production of zuò.

The requirements for the scenery and props personnel are not only to make some physical models, but to draw the required scenes and props in the computer for later compositing and use. After the completion of the preliminary work, the post-synthesis process completely uses computer technology, and the original traditional special effects methods such as masking and superimposing shadows are replaced by some functions of computer software.

Since the coordinator had already announced to the actors what was going to be filmed today, Chen Tiandu was happy and relaxed, just gathered the main actors of this scene together and briefly introduced to them a role and precautions for their respective starring roles.

"Eighth master, check Weiya again, the props are cleared, and the shooting will start in three minutes." Chen Tiandu shouted with a loudspeaker.

Then he walked up to the photographer Ayman ** Lubezki and said, "A moment Kate jumps from the sky, you focus on the moment when her cloak is raised when she jumps off and when she looks up at the camera when she lands, you know what I mean?" ”

Aiman gestured OK.

Chen Tiandu nodded, and looked at Kate who was making final preparations, "Kate, how is it?" ”

"Wait, do I need to roll when I land?" Kate hurriedly asked.

"No, just bend your knees a little bit, and that's all you need. How cool is how to come, remember that you are cool. ”

"OK, I'm pretty cool." Kate took a deep breath, held the gun in both hands, and half-crouched in the air. Dressed in a black tight-fitting leather cloak half-dragged on the ground and half-hanging in the air, she was the embodiment of the goddess of the night. Many of the lads couldn't take their eyes off it.

Chen Tiandu smiled and gestured.

The scene reporter suddenly shouted loudly: "Chase in the rain Act 1, Act 1, action!" ”

On a rainy night, lightning and thunder roared, and Kate, who had short hair in the camera, was holding a pistol in one hand and a telescope in the other, overlooking the pedestrians hurrying down the building, with an infinite call headset hanging on her ear.

Under the normal editing of the film, the audience will see that Kate is monitoring the movement in front of the ATM on the corner of the street, where Neo, played by Chen Tiandu, is secretly using hacking technology to steal the balance of a bank card.

Trinity: "Is it normal?" I felt something unusual. ”

Observer behind the scenes, "It's not your turn to interfere with my job. ”

Trinity: "That's right, but I always want to be on duty." ”

"You like him and want to protect him?"

"Don't talk nonsense, my mission is to find him, and Morpheus thinks he's the savior."

"What about you, you think so too."

"My opinion doesn't matter."

"You want to say, you don't think so?"

"Zi~~" Suddenly there was a murmur, which made Kate feel uneasy, "Did you hear that?" Do you dare to guarantee that this line has not been tampered with? "Of course it's guaranteed, what's wrong?"

Then the camera moves slightly, and you will see that several streets near the ATM are already deserted, and there is already a circle of police ambushes around, and the police lights of dozens of police cars keep flashing in the dark, but there is no sound.

"Oops, there's a lot of police nearby, there's a computer guy in the area. The only explanation for his undue attention to the computer guy is that we were being monitored. ”

"Boom~~" A thunderbolt roared, and just as the police were about to act, Kate suddenly jumped down from a tall building. The cloak was raised in the wind, landed steadily on the ground, and then walked away, and none of the nearby pedestrians even reacted.

“Cut。” Chen Tiandu shouted.

In the distance, Aiman, who was manipulating the camera on the robotic arm, waved his fist at him, signaling that he had captured the picture very well. Chen Tiandu smiled, gave a thumbs up, then stood up and clapped his hands, and shouted: "Kate, this shot is very good, one-time pass." We were ready to move to the location to shoot the next shot. ”

"Is that done? It's a long shot, so don't you need to reshoot it a few more times to capture the details from different angles? Suddenly, a different voice came from behind. Chen Tiandu turned his head and saw that it was Spielberg.

"I think it's enough, I don't need more shots, it's all a waste."

Spielberg looked at him seriously and said, "Okay, it's good that you have the bottom in your heart." Perhaps this is what Katzenberg said before, Chen Tiandu's shooting method. The first time he saw it, it was indeed a bit sloppy, and people who didn't know it really couldn't accept it.

Chen Tiandu saw that Spielberg had no other opinions, so he nodded, turned to Yuan Heping again, and said: "Eighth master, the next thing is the subway chase, it is not easy to find this section of the subway for filming, we only have three hours available, and we must evacuate before dawn." Have you memorized the actors' movements? ”

Yuan Heping nodded and said, "You are the director, just point out any instructions." My team has been training them for several days, and the situation is not very complicated with just a few movements. I think it's okay, and I can start shooting at any time. ”

"Well, the eighth master is just reassuring."

"It's better to have less sycophants, it's better to get more cigarettes."

Chen Tiandu said with a smile: "Smoking is not allowed in the crew, so I'll invite everyone to have a drink after it's over." ”

He has great respect for Yuan Heping, even if he looks at the world, this is also one of the best action directors. And he was not born in a professional class, and he completely honed his skills in a movie, which is even more commendable.

Shifting the position to the location, the time is stuck just when the subway closes. Peck was already waiting there, and the staff was immediately in place and arranged.

started again, starting with Chen Tiandu's role.

He was using a card, pasting a few pieces of metal cards with metal wires into the ATM, and then quickly pressed the keyboard with one hand, Dididi, and the cash machine began to float green banknotes. Chen Tiandu quickly glanced left and right, revealing the deep affection of an outlaw. At this moment, a line of subtitles suddenly popped up on his computer, and a green letter came into his eyes in a jumping way, "Neo, go quickly, the police are coming." ”

"What?" Neo's color changed suddenly, and he didn't know who hacked his computer at this time to alert him. But he couldn't think too much, quickly put the banknotes into his backpack, fell on his shoulders and walked into the crowd.

The siren suddenly sounded, and out of nowhere, more than a dozen policemen with guns rushed towards Chen Tiandu with a shout. Neo was startled, a little dumbfounded, and made a funny expression of crying and mourning, "It's just that I stole a few thousand dollars, so there's no need to make such a fuss." ”

Then he pushed away a few people in a daze, and rushed into the subway.

This is Chen Tiandu's version of Neo, a hacker whose personality is not so dull. Sometimes there will be a little jumpy, and the audience will feel that he is more in line with the image of chasing popular youth, and he has a sense of substitution.

After a series of runs, when he was almost caught, he met the handsome "double gun" Trinity in the subway station, and fled into the subway with him, and more than a dozen policemen chased him. Then there was a series of fierce subway gunfire battles, and Trinity made a difficult move that made Neo unbelievable, and actually easily took out a dozen police officers while dodging bullets.

“Cool！” Chen Tiandu's version of Neo threw his fist excitedly, and the wolf jumped up, "Who are you, why do you want to save me?" ”

"Trinity."

Neo was stunned, "Hacker Trinity? The one who paralyzed the number of JÙ libraries of the National Tax Service? ”

"That was a long time ago."

"Oh my God." Chen Tiandu slapped his forehead.

"What's wrong?"

"I thought you were a man, but I didn't expect ...... I didn't expect it......" His eyes were in disbelief, looking up and down at a two-gun beauty dressed in a black tight leather suit.

"A common problem of you people."

"You hacked my computer just now? How do you do it. Also, why do you know my name? ”

"I know a lot, I know your qiē, I know why you can't sleep, I know why you sleep alone, do you think this world is a little unreal? Now I can only tell you one word, your situation is very dangerous. I have to warn you that they're spying on you, Neo......" as he spoke, a computer man on the ground arrived.

(PS: It's not that the plot is written to cheat the number of words, and there is no "cheating" in the public chapter.) Anyone who has watched the movie should know that the beginning of this "hacker" plot written by Lao Donkey is different from the original book. Did you guess it was the beginning of that movie? ）
