Chapter 333: The Final Battle with Zombies (Part I)

Seeing Robert slowly walking towards this side step by step, and holding the gun in his hand, Everea was frightened, and couldn't help but raise her head, look at Robert quietly, and then slowly retreat backwards.

"Stop! Will, you slow down a little bit, your eyes fixed on Jessica and Evela. ”

Zhou Shaoming made a pause gesture and then said.

The shooting continued, Will Smith's resignation slowed down, and Robert dragged an injured leg and held a pistol towards the mother and daughter, angry and a little nervous.

Robert then placed the pistol on the table. Robert spread his hands, meaning I had no ill intentions.

At this time, Jessica smiled and signaled that she had no malicious intentions.

"I'm sorry, but the eggs are powdery!"

"But, of course, you already know!"

"This is for you!" - Jessica is speaking her lines with a faint smile on her face, and her performance is quite in place.

However, Zhou Shaoming shouted again: "Will, when Jessica is talking, you have to nod slightly, and even have some vague feelings of joy and disbelief." ”

"Okay, Director!" Will Smith nodded.

"I found bacon, it's the best thing in the world."

"I also found antibiotics in the bathroom."

Jessica continued to speak her lines, as she spoke, as she came to the table with the food that had already been prepared.

The whole time, Robert didn't speak, just watched quietly, with a puzzled, incredulous expression on his face.

Perhaps, for the sudden living person, Robert's heart still can't easily accept it. It is equivalent to breaking one's own inherent thinking concept in a short period of time. There is a buffering phase.

"Put it on a plate fat. Your leg is fine at the moment. Jessica continued.

"Stop!"

"What's wrong with the director?" Jessica thought it was her own problem and couldn't help but ask.

"It's Everea, you should look at Robert, watch closely. There was a hint of fear in his eyes. Zhou Shaoming said.

"Got it, Uncle Zhou." Eveléa nodded and smiled.

Zhou Shaoming was a little helpless, and she was the only one who could call Uncle Zhou instead of calling herself director when filming.

"Shooting continues!"

"But if you don't start the treatment quickly. The injuries will get worse! Jessica said as she put the prepared food on her plate.

Finally, Robert spoke: "Who are you?" ”

"I'm Anna, she's Ia!" Jessica first waited for the beautiful big eyes to look at Will Smith twice, and then said.

In fact, in "I Am Legend" in the previous time and space, the character played by Everea should be a little boy.

However, for convenience, Zhou Shaoming found Evereya, after all, this role has nothing to do with importance, let alone gender.

"If you don't eat it, it will get cold!" Anna continued, as if she were a housewife. As he spoke, he put the food on his plate.

"Jessica, look at Will as much as you can. And it's the kind of thing you look straight at. Zhou Shaoming reminded beside him.

Then Anna sat down, and at the same time, Anna and Ia, mother and daughter, looked at Robert tightly, and there seemed to be a look of anticipation in their eyes.

"It's okay, let's eat!"

Robert dragged his chair over, sat down, and began to eat, followed by some conversation between Anna and Robert.

For the next ten days, the scenes about Anna and Robert were filmed, and the scenes where Robert imitated the dialogue of the anime characters on TV were very difficult, and it took two whole days to completely keep up with the rhythm.

And then there is the life and communication between Robert and Anna, some bland but foreshadowing plots.

The time has come to mid-October, the filming of I am Legend has been going on for more than two months, and there are still two weeks left before Halloween, Zhou Shaoming's plan is to completely end it in ten days, and then return to California, just in time for the release of "The Day After Tomorrow".

And about the last scene left in I am a legend, that is, the final battle, the scene where the zombie leader leads a group of zombies to save people, Zhou Shaoming chose the version where the zombies have feelings in the end, and the protagonist returns the female zombies to the zombie leader.

On October 14th, the weather was fine, Washington Square, and the crew of "I Am Legend" nervously prepared props and set up the scene.

And Zhou Shaoming and others were filming the scene where Robert experimented with female zombies.

"The actress playing the female zombie lies on the experimental table, surrounded by ice, her chest and lower abdomen shake rapidly, and her breathing rhythm increases.

Robert wore a white coat and black glasses to observe the female zombies and instruments.

Just then, Anna walked in and startled Robert.

"I'm sorry - I called twice!" Anna said with a smile.

"Thank you!" Robert took the cup and said thank you, while Anna stared intently at the zombies on the bench.

"She's heavily sedated, it's fine, it's safe!"

"I've never seen them so quiet."

"They're always biting."

As she spoke, Anna approached the female zombie as Robert put down his glass.

"Do you think this will cure her?"

Robert hesitated for a moment, then said, "This can definitely kill the virus, but if you lower the body temperature, it may increase the efficacy of the vaccine." After saying that, he took another sip of coffee.

Next is some scenes between the regular male and female protagonists, including sleeping with Ia in his arms, including playing music, etc.

By the time all these scenes are filmed, the time has come to October 20th.

On the night of October 21, the crew of "I Am Legend" began to prepare for the filming of the final scene in a villa in Washington Square, which is also the biggest climax of the whole film.

As night wore on, Robert closed all the doors and windows in his room as usual.

"Come with us, Neville!" Anna said as she followed Robert, who limped around with no expression on his face.

"Go to the gathering place!"

Robert turned his head and looked at the window again, "There's no gathering place at all, Anna." ”

After saying that, he lowered the roller shutter in front of the window.

"All plans have collapsed! There is no evacuation plan! ”

"Stop!"

"Will. Your voice is a little annoyed. ”

"All plans fell apart. There is no evacuation plan. ”

"Wrong. Grounded! After Jessica finished saying this line, Zhou Shaoming shouted again: "Jessica, your voice should be firm and certain, and do it again." ”

"Wrong. Grounded! This time, Jessica said categorically.

"I know!" Anna continued.

"Head towards Will as he speaks." Zhou Shaoming said on the side.

Robert walked to another window and pulled down the roller shutter, "How do you know, Anna." ”

"I just know."

"Stop. Jessica, be firm in your expression. ”

"I just know!"

"One more time!"

"I just know."

"Yes, almost."

"How do you know? How could you possibly know? Robert turned his head and said seriously, he didn't believe in any base at all.

Then Anna paused, stared at Robert with big bright eyes, and said firmly: "God told me." ”

"God told you?" - "That's right! "That's the God." - "Yes! ”

"Jessica, with a little smile, it's like you think of something beautiful, such as your own children and a bright future, and there is a hint of yearning and longing in your expression." Zhou Shaoming reminded in a whisper.

"I know it sounds," Anna hadn't finished yet. Directly interrupted by Robert: "It's crazy. ”

"But I was told to turn on the radio." Anna was already wet with tears.

"Jessica, the look you look at Robert with affection. Imagine that he is your dependence, your benefactor, your future, and your hope. ”

"But I was told to turn on the radio!" Jessica said it again.

"Stop."

"Jessica, this expression is very important, do you understand that look of hope? Don't think that you are filming, think that you see hope, see the future, and have tears in your eyes. Zhou Shaoming frowned and said seriously.

"Director, I see." Jessica nodded, and the shooting continued.

"But I was told to turn on the radio." This time, Jessica's expression was in place, but what no one knew was that at this moment, she told herself that the Will Smith in front of her was Zhou Shaoming, and told herself: There is a future, there is hope.

"I was told to come here." Anna's expression was a little agitated.

"My radio called you here, Anna!" Robert said in a deep voice, and then turned his head away.

"You wanted to kill yourself last night, didn't you?" Seeing Robert turn away, Anna asked, following behind.

"Anna!" Robert was a little impatient, indeed, Sam's death made his nerves about to burst, and the original loneliness, pain, and despair were magnified even more, so there was revenge, and this revenge Robert was ready to die.

Anna was right, Robert was looking for death last night, but luckily, he was saved by Anna.

"And I just happened to be you, is it a coincidence?"

"Say no more!" Robert seemed to be suspicious of his own preconceived notions, so he didn't dare to listen any further, so he could only interrupt.

"Will, there's a hint of pleading in your tone, like begging others not to bring up your sad past." Zhou Shaoming said.

"Say no more!" This time there was a kind of fear in his voice, and there was also a hint of trembling, and Will Smith performed Robert very well at this time, and the escape, the fear, and the pain were magnified.

"The world is much quieter now!"

"You just have to listen!"

"If you listen with your heart, you can hear God's plan!" After Anna finished speaking, she put her face close to Robert, and her expression was even more pious and hopeful!

Robert and Anna then start a series of conversations that are easy to come and go.

Suddenly, Robt sensed something was wrong, "What's the sound?" When the words landed, his face changed instantly, he thought a little, and asked directly to Anna, "Was it still dark when you took us home yesterday?" ”

Anna's face also became heavy, and she seemed to know what Robert meant: "You were still bleeding. The horizon has already seen the light of day. ”

After all that's said. Anna is a little lost!

Robert's heart sank. Knowing that the problem was serious, after cursing in a small voice with some annoyance, he said anxiously: "Hurry up, hurry up and turn off the lights." ”

Forthwith. The room was plunged into darkness, and Robert, limping, quickly approached the window on the side, after opening. But I found that outside the room, a large number of zombies were approaching.

"Ben, you go out and arrange for zombies, and ask them to be faster!" Be nimble and fast. Zhou Shaoming said suddenly: "Will, do it again when you opened the window just now." ”

"They're following us back!" Robert's tone was heavy and serious.

Anna's first thought was of her daughter Ia, and with Ia's mouth in her mouth, she quickly turned around and ran towards her daughter's room.

"Jessica, your reaction was slow just now, a little faster, the moment Will finished speaking. You're about to turn around and rush towards Evereya's room. ”

"Okay, Director. I'll do it again! ”

"Ia!" Anna's face changed drastically, and she turned around and ran wildly towards her daughter's room.

"Very good, this scene is over, Will, you and Jessica will study how to shoot next, Ryl Baker, Benjamin, let's go outside the house and shoot the scene of the zombies coming." After Zhou Shaoming explained, he took a few people out of the house.

At night in New York, the sky is starry and the outside is gray.

In front of me, there were dozens of zombies, standing together and lined up.

"You are zombies now, vigorous and flexible zombies, you don't need to do difficult movements, but some simple actions such as running and climbing must be done quickly, cleanly, showing your strong muscle strength, and there is also a key point, the facial expression should be as hideous as possible, and it is best to keep your mouth open all the time." Zhou Shaoming said to a large number of actors playing zombies in front of him.

"Got it, Director!"

"Very well, then, Act 1 - the zombie run, from that side to this side, as fast as you can! Hugh, you're the leader, so you're going to be at the front. ”

"Photographer, attention, all-round, 360-degree shooting of the running scene."

"Are you all ready?"

"Are you ready?" Zhou Shaoming shouted loudly with a big speaker.

"Ready!"

"Excellent! Acition！ ”

Thirty or fifty zombies with gray-white skin and bloody mouths activated in an instant, running frantically forward.

Stop. Jackman's tall figure, strong muscles, and deliberate makeup by the makeup artist, the zombie leader at this time showed great speed, rushing to the front with his head buried in his head and marching quickly.

"It's over! Very good, I'm happy with this scene. ”

Ten seconds later, the filming of the lost run ended.

"The next scene - the madness of the zombies, this scene, you are still running, but this time you are required to each or each zombie to have your own movements. And this time the run needs to be messy, messy, the kind of charge, you know? ”

"Understood!"

"Photographer, this time you shoot, you need to zoom in on the lens, there can be up to three or five zombies in a frame, this kind of lens distance is the best."

"Yes, Director!"

"Good, keep shooting, action!"

Suddenly, all the zombies scattered in a large square, one by one with their hands on the ground, jumping quickly like frogs, the muscles on their legs and arms can be seen clearly, the vigorous posture, and the leaping action looks spectacular.

"Ban, wait a minute, listen to my orders, turn on the lights!" At this moment, Zhou Shaoming suddenly shouted, and in the next second, the IQ of the open space in front of Robert's villa suddenly flashed with many lights.

These lights were arranged by Robert before, after all, zombies are afraid of light, and for safety, Robert has installed electric lights around the villa before, at this time, the zombies are coming, and they have arrived at the door, of course, they must be brightened.

However, the scene where Robert opened the device in the house was not filmed for the time being, and Zhou Shaoming planned to shoot all the scenes of the zombies running and impacting in front of him first, and then shoot the rest, as for the combination, it was a matter of post-production.

"All the zombies listen, wait for the moment when there is a light, you need to react in a short time, cover your head with your hands, or even lie on the ground, the entire lost team is even more scattered, every zombie becomes crazy, and the line is running around!" Zhou Shaoming then shouted loudly with a loudspeaker.

"Three-two-one! Lights up! ”

In an instant, the lights flashed around, and in an instant, all the zombies had different reactions, some were lying on the ground, some jumped into the car, and even directly grabbed the telephone pole, the scene was chaotic, but all the zombies still rushed towards Robert's room, and the general direction never changed!

"Excellent! This scene is also very exciting, I am proud of you, and the next thing is to finish, let's finish it in one go! Remember, at this moment, you are furious zombies! ”

Zhou Shaoming was happy and excited, and when the climax scene was filmed, he was also excited, holding the big horn and shouting exaggeratedly.

"Zombies! Zombie! Zombie! Ahead, all of them were excited and roared loudly.

"The following scene is called a zombie in the fire! Because Robert set off an explosive device, you were blown up, in the shock wave, in the sea of fire! Zhou Shaoming continued.

"Of course, we can't really be in the blast wave, let alone in the sea of fire, so we just need to imagine what kind of reaction and action you will have if you are in the sea of fire and you are affected by the shock wave, just shoot this."

Things about the sea of fire and explosions need special effects, and the shooting at this time, as long as the form of each zombie is filmed well, those sea of fire explosions will be added later.

"You are brave and fearless zombies, you are zombies who don't know pain, so in the sea of fire, in the explosion, you still didn't dodge, just fled frantically, faster, jumped over the car, and suddenly jumped several meters directly, this is what you want to express! In other words, the next thing is still running, but compared to the previous two acts, the running is more exaggerated and crazy! ”

"Yes, Director!" (To be continued.) )
