Chapter Ninety-Seven: Joint Twisting

After filming the family scene of Dr. Gordon played by James Franco at Stanton Studios, Murphy led the crew back to the warehouse set in Venice and continued to shoot the few remaining scenes, although he saw that the relationship between James Franco and Lily Collins was a little delicate, but he didn't say much, and James Franco himself was very careful, and rarely showed the intimacy between the two in the presence of others.

As for whether there will be more intimate contact between the two, filming has reached the end, and the scenes of Lily Collins and James Franco are all over, and Murphy no longer cares about these.

He can't keep himself busy with his own work, where is the time to care about James Franco's special fetishes.

Carey Mulligan also left the crew and returned to school to deal with the dropout, and Jonah Hill and Seth Rogan, who can detect some signs, are too late to see the excitement, how can they break this delicate relationship.

On the set of the warehouse, Murphy and the crew enter the final build scene, where he is standing behind the director's monitor, next to editor Jody Griffiths, and the two are reviewing the footage that has just been shot.

This is not only a common occurrence in Murphy's crew, but also in Hollywood as a whole.

"In post-editing, just cut out the ...... of the jigsaw," Jody Griffiths said as he pressed the pause button and pointed to the monitor, "and it would be a horror to suddenly insert the picture where he appears." ”

Murphy clasped his hands to his chest, his head automatically played according to Jody Griffiths, and nodded slightly, "This one, so be it." ”

Jody Griffith left here, and Murphy looked up to see assistant director Paul Wilson giving him an 'OK' gesture and said loudly, "Attention departments, now clear the scene, filming continues." ”

The people on the set quickly walked out, and Philip Raschel sat behind the camera set up on the slide, while Murphy took the portable camera from his camera assistant and walked to another preset camera to prepare for a close-up shot.

The microphone slowly fell from the sky, and an Asian, an African-American, and a white actor were ready.

With Murphy's order, filming begins again, with the police officer played by the three actors confronting Rabin Bell, behind whom is prop master Baker Klebert, who is strapped to the joint twist prop.

His limbs and head were fixed to a steel frame, and once the timer began, the machine would twist the limbs 360 degrees, and finally break his neck, causing a tragic death

Murphy used his hand-held camera to capture Rabin Bell, while Filly Raschel's camera panned across the four-man room opposite.

In the face of the three police officers, how could the jigsaw be obedient, he pressed the remote control, activated the joint twist, and the microphone used for recording fell on top of the killing mechanism, and recorded the sound of the joint twisting frame and the frightened sound made by Baker Klebert all accurately.

After more than three weeks of filming, Murphy's crew has run in a certain tacit understanding.

The black man asked the two officers to rescue Baker Klebert, he himself stared at the jigsaw, there was a large set of keys behind the joint twister, the white officer picked it up and tried to pick the lock, but the unlock was connected to the hidden shotgun, and as soon as the key was inserted into the keyhole, the shotgun hidden behind Baker Klebert went off......

A gunshot rang out, the white officer fell to the ground, and the black man and another Asian officer were distracted, and the jigsaw took the opportunity to give the black man a knife and escaped......

Murphy shouted to stop, the crew rearranged the venue, and the actor who played the white police officer had to make up for a close-up of the tragic death, showing what the tragic death would look like, so that it could be cut together with the footage just shot in post-editing.

Baker Klebert also got off the joint twist, and the command assistant and two interns tied the elaborate zuò dummy to it.

This killing mechanism is not just a prop, but it can be activated, and it may be laborious to break a person's bones, but it is no problem to twist a resin dummy.

Filming begins again, the Asian police officer throws down the dummy and goes to see the black police officer, the black police officer can't care about the victim behind him, and asks him to chase the jigsaw, after the Asian police officer leaves, under his annotation, the machine turns, the man's hands and feet are twisted one after another, facing the sound of broken bones and the sound of Baker Klebert's simulation howling, the black police officer covers his neck cut by a knife with one hand, and raises the gun with the other......

"Stop!" Murphy put down his camera, "This is over!" Go to the next scene. ”

As the crew began to busily transition, he returned to the back of the monitor to watch the footage he had just shot.

A lot of this is a trade-off to be made when editing, especially if it can be released in theaters, you must choose carefully, otherwise it will definitely become a >

There is no doubt that the design of the joint twist frame from the later parts is also more bloody and cruel than the mechanisms in between, and Murphy has not considered whether it is appropriate to do so, but now the future of this film is uncertain, where did he come from to think about the sequel.

Even if there will be a sequel in the future, it will be after the success of this film.

There is only one shot left in the back, the Asian police officer pursues the jigsaw, and after firing the gun, he thinks he has hit the jigsaw, and when he approaches, he is ambushed by the trap, and his life is tragically lost.

Murphy made the same changes here, having previously used a shotgun trap with a giant spike stick, and the Asian officer stepped on not a thin line that might have crossed it, but a flap that spanned the entire hallway.

In short, even if the police officer used the hurdle action, he would not be able to dodge the flap and would be crushed to death by a whole row of giant nail rods falling from the sky.

He is also one of the few minorities to die in the film, and he died while dutifully pursuing the jigsaw.

Murphy was very careful when selecting the actors, and all the people who died in the jigsaw had the same trait, whether they were purely white, middle-class, or relatively wealthy......

These people who are judged on the surface and on the inside, not to mention that there is not a single black person, not even a single minority.

Although it is uncertain whether the film can enter the theatrical channel, Murphy is also following some general rules of theatrical films, which are lessons that countless films have learned from hitting the streets, and there is always some advantage to avoiding them.

What is the situation in North American society, he is not particularly clear as an outsider, but uniting ethnic minorities has always been the right policy of Hollywood movies.

The transition was quickly completed, and Murphy then began the shooting of the last shot, the Asian police officer chased the jigsaw to his death, blood flowed all over the passage, and the main camera gave the jigsaw a final close-up, and all the filming was officially completed.
