Colosseum. There are thousands of extras sitting around, and the scene is very noisy.

Seven cameras stand in different positions, each with its own division of labor. Some cameras are placed on top of slides, and this is a close-up shot that can be pushed and pulled to the person more accurately. There is also a camera hanging on the boom, and the lower side should be constantly rocked to shoot some top-down shots, or panoramic and medium shots.

There are also cameras in several of the camera positions that have been set, and there are also hand-held cameras that capture footage that cannot be captured properly from a fixed position.

With so much shot scheduling, it's a lot of work on set. This is also why very few directors can shoot the momentum of the group battle scene, because the construction of this kind of picture is not something that a single director can complete.

This requires countless crew members to shoot together, especially since many shots are fleeting, and it requires the skills of the cameraman and director to capture effectively. If it is really a director to complete such a huge project, it is estimated that it will take several months to prepare for this scene to ensure that there are basically no problems.

Therefore, at this time, it shows the super high configuration of the crew of "Gladiator", and it also shows the directorial skill of director Ridley Scott in scheduling the scene.

In terms of such scene scheduling, only a real director can accurately complete and construct a macroscopic visual sense of the scene. I have the impression that in a few years, the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy, which shocked the entire West, will become the best scene scheduling classic.

It took Peter Jackson three years to construct that story, and it took more than 15 months to shoot "The Lord of the Rings", which shows how difficult it is to shoot such a big scene.

This is not only a matter of the director's skills, but also the director's ability to control the scene. Some good directors may not be able to shoot this kind of scene well. The negative typical is undoubtedly the later White Dove Wu. One production after another proves that White Pigeon Wu has nothing to do in front of the big-scene movies. In the final analysis, it is the limitations of Hong Kong films.

If there is a ranking of Hollywood big-scene directors, Ridley Scott is definitely on the list, and his on-site control ability is absolutely top.

Art Director Arthur Marks was yelling at members of his team not far away, while Alexander Witt, the first assistant director, was constantly helping Ridley control the extras and several camera positions above.

No one dares to make a mistake at this time, for this kind of movie, if you delay once, then you may be smashed into millions of dollars. Despite the $100 million investment in "Gladiator", Ridley, who is also a producer, is obviously more dedicated than Kashen and will not do anything to threaten investors.

This is also the reason why DreamWorks is comfortable with the power in his hands, because Spielberg knows that Ridley meets DreamWorks' requirements. Not only does it have unimaginable scheduling capabilities for this kind of movie, but it also ensures that DreamWorks' film is overspended.

“GOGOGO！！”

Ridley didn't have the heart to sit in a chair at this time, holding a high-frequency walkie-talkie in one hand and a megaphone in the other, shouting at the staff at the scene with the megaphone at the top of his throat.

With the completion of the preparations, the scene of the unique sense of ritual all stood up, setting off the atmosphere of the scene, the ancient Roman amphitheater naturally did not appear the scene of thousands of jubilation, such a scene is just through the computer to complete.

The crew's cinematographer filmed the real movements of the extras, and then the special effects team used a computer imaging system to replicate their images on the 2D cards distributed in each seat, so that the special effects team would make the ancient Roman amphitheater a scene of thousands of people cheering, which was also part of the heavy work of the film's post-production.

However, the sound of the thousands of extras on the scene was just as loud.

Red ceremonial flowers fell throughout the arena, filling with a sense of immediacy. The camera on the boom first shot the whole picture, and then slowly focused on the Praetorian Guards carrying oversized shields.

With the shouting again and again, it is re-shot again and again. In order to shoot this scene well, director Ridley also kept filming patiently.

The staff at the scene focused all their eyes on the two leading actors Sean and Russell Crowe on the field.

"Click!" Ridley waved his hand.

The eyes of the staff and the eyes of Sean and others are all on the great director Ridley. At this moment, the scene was still a little noisy, but more people were holding their breath and staring at Ridley. It seems to be waiting for the king to review it, or for the general's order.

"The 1092nd act of "Gladiator" is over!" A drama manager next to him shouted, but he couldn't attract everyone's attention.

"Gladiator is finished!" Ridley smiled slightly, took the megaphone and shouted loudly, "The filming of "Gladiator" is over! Call it a day—"

"Roar!!"

"Amazing!! Finally the shooting is complete!! ”

"Yay!!"

In an instant, countless hats and clothes were thrown in the air, and the staff yelled excitedly, after three and a half months and more than 100 days of filming, it was finally over, and you can imagine how excited everyone was.

However, Sean was not so excited at this time.

"Oh, poor boy, light...... Does it hurt here? What about here? The surgeon, who was in his 60s on the crew, looked at Sean sitting in a chair, pressed a certain part of his body from time to time, and then asked carefully, "What does it feel like here?" Numbness? ”

In order to show the excitement of the fight with Russell Crowe in the last scene, Sean really let Russell Crowe hit him, although the other party paid attention to avoiding the key points, and at the same time appropriately retracted his strength, but the hit still made Sean's nose blue and swollen face, and the successive combination punches proved that this Australian strong man was indeed not a false chart.

"Are you alright, Sean? Sorry, I just ......" Russell Crowe stood next to Sean, apologetic. He knew how heavy his punches were.

"Hey Russell, it's not your fault. We're all here for the film. Besides, we have already made it clear before that we are going to really fight, if you don't use your strength, I really suspect that you and Meg are too nourishing for Christmas......" Looking at Russell Crowe with an apologetic face in front of him, Sean grinned and patted each other's shoulders to comfort, "What's more, I'm just a little bruised, and the swelling will go down a lot in one night, and my physique is not so bad." ”

As he spoke, Sean stood up and moved his muscles. In fact, Russell Crowe's blow didn't affect Sean, it was just a little swollen. Sean has long been accustomed to this kind of trauma, and to be honest, it's just scary to watch. Speaking of which, it hasn't fallen seriously in "Advance to Los Angeles".

"How? It's not a big deal, right? Ridley Scott had just seen Russell Crowe and Sean fist to the flesh and almost screamed in fright to stop, if it weren't for the wonderful performance of the two of them, he couldn't bear to break the rhythm, maybe he would have stopped it a long time ago.

"It seems that you don't seem to have as serious ...... as you think"

"It's crazy, you let Russell punch and kick him, oh, I can't imagine it." Jordan Scott was also quite surprised, surprised by Sean's bold move. After a few glances at Sean, who was intact and laughing, she had to sigh at Sean's strong physical fitness.

"Alright guys, the movie is over. In the evening we can relax and unwind. I hope you guys will enjoy the evening show. Ridley saw that Sean was fine, so he let go of his worries and smiled, "I have invited a lot of models from Milan, you know, Italian women are very open and enthusiastic, so I think you had better recover your energy, otherwise you will not be able to cope with the party at night!" ”

"It looks like it's going to be lively at night." Sean said with a smile.

"Of course, the models in Milan won't miss this kind of party! Gentlemen, I hope you have a good night. Jordan Scott gave a playful look at Russell Crowe and Sean and quipped, "Those models like you tough guys the most!" This is a common problem of Italian and sons! ”

"Well, I'm kind of looking forward to the evening's activities." Sean shrugged his shoulders indifferently, "But I hope there won't be a paparazzi ...... then."

"Don't worry, the Italian paparazzi are staring at football!" Connie Nils changed her clothes and walked over with a smile, "This is the kingdom of football, and the paparazzi are more focused on football." Of course, if you have to go out and preach it, I don't think they will let you go! ”

"Well, as long as I didn't say." Sean spread his hands.

As Connie Nelson said, Italy is much safer here than Los Angeles. Those paparazzi won't be staring at you all the time. Because it's Italy!

Although the whole crew fell into the excitement after the finale, the final finishing work is equally important, in addition to Russell Crowe, Sean and others, there is still a lot of work to be done.

Sean will also have to sign some contracts about his actor after that, and some forms about the film after it is finished. The big Hollywood companies are so troublesome about filmmaking, and their meticulous work down to every step will make you feel that Hollywood is a big factory, and everyone in it is a worker in this factory.

"Gladiator" was officially completed, which also made Sean breathe a sigh of relief. This film is undoubtedly the one he has put the most effort into to date.

Looking at the arena that had come down not far away, the busy scene suddenly became a little depressed. That's probably the beauty of light and shadow! It is also the charm of the movie, it can turn decay into magic, and it can also turn the impossible into possibility!

In front of the huge quaint and majestic arena, Sean felt very small, and at a glance, he could see the light of the sunset sprinkled on the arena, at this moment, the picture was frozen, and the beauty was like an oil painting.
