Albert looked at the parked cars on the street outside the door, it was the same today, there were at least four groups of paparazzi watching outside, the news has been in a lot of noise lately, even though Lance refused to respond to the paparazzi, but the "Fruit Hard Candy" crew still suffered, the crew members were surrounded by paparazzi, and they seemed to be eager to hear some bad things about Lance. www.biquge.info However, the paparazzi's abacus was obviously wrong, and the six crew members of "Fruit Hard Candy" had no intention of opening up.

Fortunately, there are only two actors in the crew, Lance and Allen, and the outside influence has been minimized. Just, is Lance really okay?

"If you want to stand there and wait for the paparazzi to capture your beautiful figure, I think you need to take your clothes off." Lance's voice came, Albert touched his nose in some embarrassment, turned his head, and then saw Lance's angry expression, and it was obvious that Lance's temper was a little short-tempered, and the huge pressure made the pair of handsome eyebrows entangled.

"Lance, are you sure you don't need to pay attention to the people outside?" Albert voiced his concerns.

"Let them wait." Lance said lightly, not taking the paparazzi to heart at all. When Dylan offered to give him Jessica's recording, he didn't care; Now he still doesn't care, "If you want to select moral exemplary standards, you should go to the church, not Hollywood." Oh no, the church isn't safe now. Lance shrugged, his words full of disdain and mockery.

It made everyone else standing next to him laugh.

Lance glanced around angrily, "Shooting starts in five minutes, everyone is ready?" We don't have that much to spend! In an instant, everyone restrained their smiles, and quickly lowered their heads and continued to get busy.

Today is that day - the moment to shoot the castration scene! For this scene, Lance and Hayden stayed up late to design the direction of the camera and the use of space, and spent two days rehearsing, and did not shoot any other scenes for two full days, and the whole crew was rehearsing for this scene to make sure nothing went wrong.

This is also one of the reasons why Lance has never had the heart to deal with those media, otherwise Lance would have scolded the paparazzi a long time ago. Compared to the media, today's scene is the most important.

In the script, the castration scene occupies a full twenty-two pages, in other words, twenty-two minutes. Since Hayley didn't really want to castrate Jeff, she found all sorts of excuses to create a terrifying and terrifying atmosphere to convince Jeff - and the audience that he was really castrated. First it was chilled with ice cubes, then Hayley sent an email to Ginaire, and then Hayley went to the roof to confirm the length of the rope - and finally made Jeff choose to commit suicide in order to escape the sin, which was the opportunity that Hayley had planned from the beginning, and finally used a series of psychological hints such as videotapes, alcohol, and fake blood to make Jeff realize that he was going to be castrated.

The entire long twenty-two minutes are completely psychological torment, pushing the discomfort of the movie's thriller oppression to the extreme.

Lance had planned to shoot all 22 minutes with long shots, that is, to complete it in one shot. But considering that the difficulty is really too great, it must be considered that Hayley has also reached the roof once, and at this time Lance does not plan to reveal the truth, so he can't really film Hailey's activities on the roof.

On the other hand, the process of freezing the ice cube in the middle to numb Jeff is also relatively long, and if the script is thick enough and the characters are enough, Lance feels that presenting the entire ice process in a real timeline will bring out unimaginable shock and fear. But the problem is that the whole script of "Hard Candy" is still relatively weak, and there are too few characters, and the dialogue between each other will start to become long and boring, weakening the original atmosphere.

So, after all the considerations, Lance decided to change his strategy.

Bound to the long table, Jeff gradually begins to lose patience and confidence, all defenses are broken, and he begins to talk about the trigger points of his childhood. This line is very long, almost two minutes long, and after finishing it, Hayley begins to officially "castrate". Lance decides, starting with Jeff's confession, locking on to Jeff through a long shot, and then in the aftermath of the shot, Hayley's final preparations can be seen, and the confrontation between the two gradually tightens in the moving but constant shot, and reaches a climax in the final "castration" part.

The entire long shot will be 10 and 30 seconds long.

Hayden felt his palms start to sweat at this point. Lance was making the final preparations, Alan was also standing next to him and moving his limbs, Albert was making sure that there were no obstacles on the camera's track, and the whole crew didn't look like there were many people, but it was a busy scene. Hayden swallowed a mouthful of saliva, only to find that his throat was terribly dry.

Although Hayden often lamented that he chose to trust friendship and helped Lance shoot "City of God", which became a turning point in his career; But every time he works he is facing severe challenges, and he upgrades again and again, and the life he once dreamed of has come true!

The long shot of "Hard Fruit Candy" looks simple, but the difficulty is beyond Hayden's imagination. Lance has strict requirements for the use of space, the arrangement of lighting, and the change of the position of the characters, and because the whole film is supported by the performances of the two actors, capturing the performance of the actors has also become one of the important tasks of the camera, and how to find a balance between the two has become the most severe test.

Even Hayden was too nervous to speak at this time.

"Lance." Hayden opened his mouth to speak. As a director, if Lance can stand in front of the monitor, command, make requests, and direct, then things will be much easier, because after all, he is just a photographer, not a director, he is just a part of the director's purpose.

Lance turned his head, as if sensing Hayden's tightness, and he raised an eyebrow, "My job is hard enough, you'd better not slap it up." A teasing remark made Hayden laugh dumbly.

This scene is very harsh for Lance, under the lock of the long shot, which means that the plot will rely on Lance's performance to drive the tension, and there is no room for retreat, in the absence of editing, the long shot will truly record every detail of the performance. What's more, the scene of "castration" is the most difficult to perform in the whole movie - because there is no reference object in real life.

Hayden let out a long breath, "You're still worried about your balls." Seeing the roll of Lance's eyes, Hayden turned his head and looked at Michael and Emma, who were holding their breath next to him, "Can you stand in front of the monitor?" Lance can't make adjustments in the first place, maybe you can help. ”

The eyes of the two men suddenly began to light up.

Hayden stepped aside, adjusted his breathing, and then carried the camera on his shoulder, the whole process of the camera to the end was in motion, so he could only carry the camera, not use a tripod, and many scenes needed to squat down to find a better perspective, which was also a severe test of physical strength.

Walking to Lance's side, Hayden began to look for an angle to shoot, he half-crouched down, pressed his hips against the wall, kept his stability, and aimed the camera at Lance's upper body, "If you're ready, then we'll get started!" ”

Lance suddenly began to breathe rapidly, his chest heaved violently, making it look as if he had just experienced an 800-meter run, and then nodded, and Hayden received the signal and said, "Let's shoot!" ”

Hayden looks at Lance in the camera, and at this point he is no longer Lance, but Jeff.

Jeff's face was full of exhaustion, and he was talking to himself about the memories of his childhood, but his voice couldn't help but be tinged with a layer of pain, as if he could clearly feel his soul slowly curling up. Hayden slowly advanced the camera, slowly, he could capture the mixed emotions between Jeff's eyebrows, a little joy, a little struggle, a little happiness, a little guilt, all the emotions were messed up, making his handsome face gradually become embarrassed, and the cowardice and fear hidden behind the mask revealed its original face.

Hayden's footsteps stopped, and Jeff closed his eyes, but he could vividly feel all the changes in emotions just by his voice. When the whole story was finished, Jeff opened his eyes, Hayden pushed the camera forward, and those blue eyes appeared in front of the picture, but there was no look, the waves were like a pool of stagnant water, and the blankness was slowly fading.

Half a step back, Hayden slowly pulled the camera back, and then a pair of hands could be seen putting on disposable surgical gloves, and Hayley was ready for surgery. As the camera continues, Hayley's figure gradually appears in view, and then Hayden leans against the wall, slowly sliding down, capturing the whole picture from the bottom up, and Hayley stands at the end of the table, looking at Jeff condescendingly, like a god reading the sentence.

Jeff shook his body and pulled his hands tight, "Don't." Even if you can't see his eyes, there is still a fierce color hidden in the short voice, like the last struggle before death.

"I said, don't say 'no.'" Hayley's eyes twitched and she looked at Jeff disdainfully.

Jeff is like a fish on a chopping board, he can't see his expression, he can't see his eyes, he can't even see his face, it's just a piece of fish lying on a cold chopping board for others to slaughter, "Haley, please!" Jeff raised his head slightly, but because his hands were completely tied, even if he used all his strength, even if his body was bent into a bow, he still couldn't fully raise his head, and could only catch Hayley's figure with the rest of his vision, so embarrassed, so humble, "You need help." Jeff said in a earnest, caring voice, "A normal girl wouldn't do such a thing. ”

However, Hailey didn't buy it at all, and the camera from the bottom up could clearly see the disdain and coldness flashing in Hailey's eyes, exuding a faint light, looking down at Jeff who had no ability to resist, and the smell of death could be smelled in the air. (To be continued.) )
