(I've been a busy mess lately, and when my daughter finishes drinking, she will gradually return to the third watch, everyone understands, as a father, life and biological clock have been completely messed up.) Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ）

"Protest! I would like to lodge a solemn protest against your overtime use of animal actors! ”

During the break, Murphy walked to the periphery of the set to communicate with the husky trainers, and James Morse, who was stopped by the security personnel led by Rosa Rodriguez, was almost hoarse and shouted, "You must stop filming immediately, or the Dog Lovers Association will definitely intervene......"

These voices were so disturbing that Murphy couldn't communicate with the trainer at ease, frowned and glanced over there, and simply walked over with the husky trainer.

"Director Stanton," James Morse saw Murphy, as if he had killed his own father, and struggled to break through the interception of two big-shouldered security personnel, but unfortunately his body was too bad to rush at all, so he had to continue to shout, "I want to make a solemn protest to the crew......"

"Protest against what?" Murphy gestured to the two security guards.

The two let go of James Morse, but they also stared at him, who knows what these madmen will do under impulse.

In their eyes, James Morse can be classified as an unreasonable kind of person.

James Morse saw Murphy and his voice was slightly retracted, "Protest against your overtime use of animal actors!" ”

"Overtimed use?" Murphy shook his head disdainfully, "The filming of the crew is completely in accordance with the laws and regulations of this country. ”

"But ......"

This annoying guy wanted to speak again, but was directly interrupted by Murphy, "Mr. Morse, please come up with tangible evidence, and then communicate with the legal counsel of the crew." ”

James Morse was stunned, the most basic condition for him to enter the studio was to temporarily hand in any recording and camera equipment.

There is no actual video material, and his mouth alone is not convincing at all, and the others in the studio ......

He looked around, and there was a hint of hostility in the eyes of the men.

However, when James Morse's eyes swept over Murphy's side, he saw the trainer coming with him, as if he had discovered a new world, and pointed at the trainer and said excitedly, "He! He can testify for me! ”

He looked at the handler, and if he was willing to testify, the dog lovers' association and animal protection organizations would soon be able to step in.

Murphy didn't turn his head and asked, "Gibbs, did the crew use your husky actor for a timeout?" ”

"Nope! Absolutely nothing! The trainer named Gibbs immediately swore an oath, "I've been counting the time, and the shoot just now only lasted forty-three minutes, and definitely didn't exceed the allotted forty-five minutes. ”

James Morse didn't expect the trainer to talk nonsense with his eyes open, and he was stunned for a moment.

Murphy didn't bother to look at his stunned expression, gave Rosa Rodriguez a look, turned around and walked towards the set, and Gibbs, the trainer, followed.

James Morse came back to his senses and looked angrily at the backs of Murphy and Gibbs, as if the two of them had killed his entire family.

Back on set, Murphy nodded to Gibbs, "Let's move on." ”

He didn't worry about the problem of trainers, Hollywood has its own set of operating rules, and these companies that provide animal actors are also part of Hollywood, if they break the convention and stand on the opposite side of the crew, other crews in the industry will definitely have a lot of concerns when they cooperate with them in the future.

With any crew, overshoot and delayed work are the norm.

Another point is that in the agreement signed between the crew and the husky owner, there is also a reward for completing the work according to the date specified by the crew, which is the same as the actor's award, which is also expensive.

In front of these, in fact, there is no need for Murphy and the crew to mention it, and the trainer will not be stupid enough to stand with those guys whose brain circuits are different from ordinary people.

With this little trouble out of the way, Murphy continued to shoot the scene of the Icewolf.

The previous shooting has proved that it is not easy to make a stupid and cute second thing like a husky a wolf, and there are still a lot of scenes behind, and Murphy has also thought of a lot of ways, although it is impossible to really turn the husky into a wolf in the camera, but it is also necessary to try to be as plausible as possible.

Moreover, there is no such strange creature as the ice wolf in the real world.

Murphy first made a fuss about husky photography, silhouette shooting is a universal concealer, he asked people to use headlights in the far background of the husky, and the details of the husky's face were well hidden, only retaining the form close to a wolf; The film crew was also cautious in the use of scenes, shooting some dynamic local close-ups, and the effect of shadows also helped to create a sense of mystery and deterrence.

The second is action control, when shooting, Murphy will ask the husky owner to tease the dog with bait at the appropriate time, let the husky make actions such as sticking out the tongue, jumping, opening the mouth, etc., and use slow motion to capture these actions, each shot is a lot, there is always something that can be used; also let the actor and the husky in one picture, the focus is on the actor and the husky alternate back and forth, and the actor's performance and tense atmosphere are used to make up for and create the illusion of a wolf;

There is also an indispensable material processing, the shooting shots will be preliminarily processed on the set, and all wolf-related scenes, Murphy will use a relatively fast camera switch, so that the husky is not timid, and at the same time, the flashback of the real wolf is cut into the clip, the symbolic shot, and the running war horse, the actor's nervous eyes, and the tense dynamics form a more tense and stressful conflict paragraph.

In the final post-production stage, the sound effects are added, and the dull wolf howl is used throughout it, with the rhythm of the editing, and the tense background music can effectively shape the image characteristics of the wolf.

The husky-related scenes were filmed until mid-December, when the handler left Belfast with the dog and rushed to Malta to join Paul Wilson and Seth Rogan, who were there leading a separate group to shoot.

After finishing the scene about the Icewolf, Murphy began to let the main actors into the group on a large scale, preparing to shoot a small number of action scenes.

Although this is a fantasy series, magic, martial arts, duels and wars are all in the service of the plot, and limited by investment, Murphy will not shoot those super scenes, and there are relatively few action scenes.

Westeros is a fictional country, and for the whole series to have a medieval feel, the magic color has to be quite weak, at least in the first season, and there can't be too many magical elements.

In the episodes of Project Murphy, just like the original novel, the unseen ghosts and the legend of the Dragons of the Targaryen family will be the most magical part of the whole series.

"The exquisite presentation of details and backgrounds will allow the whole play to maintain the greatest degree of realism, the bodies, talents, and fighting skills of the characters of all ethnic groups, without setting exaggerated superpowers, are not much different from real characters."

At the pre-action scene meeting, Murphy said, "It's a fairly real fantasy that will give Game of Thrones the charm of both reality and fantasy." ”

There is also the issue of scale, this is only the first season, and it will be broadcast on Fox cable network in the future, not to mention the novel, large-scale shots will make the whole series more attractive, "Game of Thrones" will inevitably have several bold shots in each episode.

Whenever novelists feel the need to take steps to sustain the reader's declining interest, they will put their characters to bed, and they can question the heavy scenes in the play for the same reason, and they can use the background of the story to excuse them, similar to medieval civilization, not civilized enough, with untamed savagery and unrestrained instincts, all of which have prompted Murphy to retain the bad side of the play on a large scale, as before.

However, Murphy will also make appropriate adjustments, and all these shots must not affect the solemn tone of the whole series, like modern people who look back at the civilization left behind by the Middle Ages, most of them feel strong, fresh, and happy.

The carrier of the movie is the big screen, which can present the epic picture, and the carrier of the drama is the small screen, which has natural defects in presenting the magnificent big scene compared to the movie.

During the filming of "Game of Thrones", there were no large-scale war scenes, and Murphy would use the treatment of "Reservoir Dogs" for the large-scale wars involved in the plot, that is, only describe the cause and effect of the action scenes.

Although the production cost of the crew is expensive, it cannot be compared with Hollywood's big-budget commercial films, and it is better not to shoot than to shoot overstretched.

You can't create spectacle scenes, you can take advantage of the length to create an epic story, and delicately present the details of the characters and events.

Murphy intends to make Game of Thrones a great example of this, a true epic with an unpredictable narrative.

Then there is the specific action design, which is a typical Western-style epic like the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy, and it is certainly not possible to use the kung fu-based action design popular in advanced Hollywood, Murphy specially found several traditional film swordsmanship masters to train actors with action scenes, and personally handled the filming of most of the action scenes.

To put it simply, Murphy wanted the kind of simple and brutal fights, not bells and whistles.

As the filming of action scenes began, more and more actors began to enter the crew, Jessica Alba also came to Belfast from Los Angeles, and Hollywood's big-name actors are actually not fundamentally different from the other side of the Pacific, and they often wear a lot of people when they travel.

Jessica Alba, for example, brought her new boyfriend to the set in Belfast.

As long as it does not affect the normal filming of the crew and is not in the period of secrecy, Murphy will not prohibit the actor's relatives and friends from visiting the crew.

But when Jessica Alba introduced her new boyfriend to him, Murphy always felt that the man seemed to have some impressions, and that impression came from the former Pacific Coast. (To be continued.) )
