Chapter 111: Desert Shooting
Ask for recommendations, ask for collections, ask for rewards, the recent results are relatively poor, is it that there are fewer updates?
Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, it is the twentieth day of the first month, and according to the regulations, the filming of "The Best Family" will also continue in the Northwest Desert.
The filming location was selected in the Tamakan Desert in the northwest desert, and the address was selected five kilometers in the direction of the hinterland of the desert, surrounded by a desolate atmosphere of yellow sand. There is an atmosphere, and it is not too deep into danger.
The boundless desert is like a yellow sea, and the sun shines on it, shining brightly. Under the scorching scorching heat, waves of heat rise in the desert, making it difficult to breathe. The wind is blowing in the desert, the sand is flying, the sky is dark, this is the world of sand, there is simply no place for you. The desert spreads flat and stretches all the way to the horizon, where the sky and the earth meet, undulating jagged sand dunes. This is the portrayal of the Tamakan Desert.
The Tamakan Desert also has a beautiful legend. Legend has it that if any infatuated woman puts on the most beautiful clothes and buries herself in this rolling dust, God will give her a promise to turn her life's thoughts into a grain of light sand in the desert. Every lifetime of thoughts, God will sprinkle a grain of sand for her, and as a result, there is the vast Tamakan Desert.
Chen Feng and his entourage first walked a distance, and when they reached the second half of the road, they were picked up by a car sent by the crew, after all, this Tamakan Desert feels similar from where it looks, and people who don't know the place are walking around, God knows where they will go.
got into the crew's car and walked for almost two hours before finally arriving at the crew, a group of people were working hard in a big desert.
After getting out of the car, Chen Feng asked Ye Rong beside him, "How do you feel, do you want to rest first." ”
Ye Rong smiled and shook her head, "It's okay, you go get busy first, if there is something, I will call you." ”
Chen Feng nodded and walked to the assistant director.
The relentless fiery spitting out of the earth like a flame unobstructed, and the desert of Guangji was baked like a steamer, and the heat was overwhelming. Chen Feng took off his coat, although the temperature in the Tamakan Desert in February was not as hot as in July and August, it was still unbearable for people living in coastal areas.
When the assistant director saw Chen Feng coming over, he handed over the work in his hand to the others, and then walked over with a smile, "Director Chen." ”
Chen Feng smiled and nodded, "How's the preparation, when can you start shooting?" ”
The assistant director glanced at the crew members who were laying out the scenes around him, and thought for a moment, "It is estimated that it will be filmed at two o'clock this afternoon." ”
Chen Feng nodded, feeling quite satisfied with this progress. "By the way, are there any notices to the extras?" It's a war scene, so a lot of extras are needed. If it is in another place, the extras are still very easy to recruit, dozens of dollars a day, many temporary workers, summer workers will have a lot of people, hundreds of people will soon be full. However, it is not easy to recruit here, first, this is a desert, far away from residential areas, and second, this is the northwest region, which is sparsely populated, and if you want to gather thousands of extras, you must recruit people from several population gathering points to recruit people. Of course, Chen Feng can also simulate the scene of thousands of people through computer synthesis, but Chen Feng doesn't plan to do this, because the effect will be much worse, and Chen Feng asks for jīng.
"We have recruited more than 600 people from three nearby settlements, and we estimate that they will be full in the afternoon." The assistant director replied.
"Where's the costume?"
"It's already in place, but there's something more troublesome?" The assistant director said worriedly with a frown.
"What's the matter?"
"According to people here, there are often irregular storms in this desert, and even the weather station is difficult to predict."
Chen Feng frowned, this matter is indeed troublesome, in case there is a storm, it will be troublesome if there are casualties, after thinking for a moment, he finally said, "In this way, we will not go to the center, just shoot at the edge, and at the same time arrange a few people to observe and observe nearby, and once there is a storm, we will immediately notify the retreat." Also do some safety measures in the vicinity. ”
The assistant director nodded, that's all.
In the afternoon, after a period of preparation, the first shooting of the first act began.
"Departments are in place...... Start shooting. ”
After the assistant director gave the order, the filming of the first scene in the desert began. In order to save costs, Chen Feng first filmed war scenes, but because the war scenes were at night, he could only wait until it was dark to start filming. Of course, Chen Feng will not waste time in the afternoon, so this scene in the afternoon is the scene where Xu Zhiqing and Lin Wanrong fell in the desert.
Xu Zhiqing's actor is a little girl who has just entered the entertainment industry, and now she is a little nervous, holding the lines on the side silently reciting, with a serious expression on her face as if she is discussing national affairs.
Chen Feng walked up with a smile, "Don't worry so much, just think of yourself in the corner, and don't look at other people." ”
"Is that okay?" The little girl asked suspiciously, blinking her eyes.
"Don't worry, that's how I came here before." After that, Chen Feng explained the scene to her in detail, and soon under the order of the assistant director, the filming began.
Lin Wanrong sat on the ground, slowly sketching on the thick yellow sand with her fingers, and after a while, several lifelike pretty faces jumped in front of her. The flying dust covered the portrait in front of him, but he was not discouraged and started from scratch. In fact, Chen Feng can't draw these things, he just sketches them with his fingers a few times, and the rest will be completed by the computer in post-production.
'What are you doing?' Xu Zhiqing's voice sounded slowly. 'Xu Zhiqing' was wearing a lotus sè cardigan skirt, and her jet-black hair was only slightly wrapped with a silk scarf, simple and casual. She put up a transparent silk scarf on her face to cover the wind and sand, which made people feel extremely elegant. In fact, this look was designed by Chen Feng himself, and at first the makeup artist was ready to let her wear a red sè robe, but in the end Chen Feng vetoed it. Although wearing a robe makes people feel heroic, it is a bit awkward to use it to act in emotional dramas, so Chen Feng designed this look for her, which made the little girl excited for a while, after all, it is a little stuffy when wearing a robe, not to mention that this is still a desert and there is very little water, so it is generally impossible to wash it once a day. This makes these actresses very uncomfortable, which girl doesn't like to be clean, since the water source is not enough, try to sweat as little as possible.
'Lin Wanrong' looked her up and down, and said with a smile: "If it weren't for your clothes, I wouldn't have remembered that there were women in the army!" Yes, yes, a little green in the sand, it's really pretty—at least better than mine!"
Xu Zhiqing's red lips bit lightly, snorted slightly, and slowly sat beside him without saying a word. The little girl sat far away from Chen Feng, and the assistant director also waved in front of her to let her get closer. The little girl leaned towards Chen Feng without a trace, everything seemed very natural, not only Chen Feng felt a burst of appreciation in his heart, but even the assistant director nodded slightly, this little girl's on-the-spot adaptability is very good.
