With the increase in the crew's filming time in Las Vegas, more and more reporters have gathered here, circling around the crew every day, hoping to hear or shoot some scoops, even if there is no scoop, you can get some new news, who made "Transformers" Duke's new work?

"If you go to the street and interview 10 random people, I'm afraid half of them will know about Duke? What is the new film made by Rosenberg. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

Sitting in an open-air café, Jack, an ace reporter from the entertainment section of the Washington Post? Scholes said to his cameraman, "Want to get attention on the entertainment page, Duke? The coverage of Rosenberg's new work is actually the best choice. ”

The videographer with the coffee cup kept nodding, "No director can be like Duke?" Rosenberg has attracted the attention of the entire North American public, and his influence has long exceeded the scope of the director himself. ”

A director who can be among the top 20 in the Forbes world's richest edition is as simple as an ordinary director.

"You have a point."

Speaking of which, Jack? Scholes looked at the location of the crew in the distance, and suddenly shook his head, "It's a pity that his vulgar personal taste will never change." ”

The other party has made enough brilliant achievements in the field of commercial films, but he is unwilling to take half a step in the field of literary films, in his opinion, this is simply too unpursued.

The cameraman stopped nodding his head, but didn't say anything, just sipped his coffee, and although he had a different opinion, he wouldn't be stupid enough to say it in front of his boss.

Jack? Scholes was still shaking his head, and he remembered a shot he had seen in the morning, which was a scene of the heroine.

Amber as the heroine? Hilde. There is not a single line in the whole scene, and the camera always circles around her sexy figure except for her extremely photogenic face.

This heroine, except for the role of the vase, is simply weakened to the point of dispensability.

Every time she plays. It's basically 'thin, dewy, and transparent', and even if you run away and lie on the ground, you have to press the director Duke? Rosenberg's request for a sexy 'pose' is a great mockery of the art of cinema when such an actor appears in such a film......

There were other scenes to shoot, if not without the opportunity to meet, Jack? Scholes would have sneered in front of the other party. A top director who has been in the industry for more than 15 years has turned to the old path when he debuted, and in addition to explosions and explosions during filming.

The other party obviously used the on-the-spot explosion to shoot those hot scenes, Jack? Scholes watched for a few days of shooting, those carefully set backdrops of the Immortal Goddess. Often after a scene, it is blown to pieces.

This crew is nothing short of a garbage maker.

But not everyone sees it that way.

Just next to another table, several reporters from the Los Angeles Times were also discussing "Transformers" in filming.

"The explosion footage on location was visually striking, but shooting on the streets of Las Vegas was a bit adventurous."

After one reporter finished talking worriedly, another retorted, "For a director like Duke, who has filmed "Death Island", "Independence Day" and "Saving Private Ryan", which are full of explosion scenes, it is not difficult to control the explosion scenes. ”

The reporter sitting between the two said. "Duke ruined half of San Francisco in 'Death Island,' 'Independence Day' blew up North America, and 'Saving Private Ryan' destroyed Omaha Beach. "Transformers", why is he going to destroy several US military bases and half of Las Vegas......"

Although more and more reporters gathered in Las Vegas, Duke's filming schedule was not affected, and the entire shoot went according to plan, except for the occasional new idea.

The main photograph of this day is Amber? Hilde's role, as the heroine, she doesn't have many lines. More time is spent on performing with body movements, and these body movements have only one purpose. Accentuate your appearance and figure.

As the sun gradually moves to the west, there is a scene where Michaela drives a bumblebee forward. The crew has completed all the filming tasks today, and Duke will hand over some finishing work to Tina? Fei was in charge, and he was accompanied by the press officer to walk into the interview area designated by the crew and accept interviews with the media.

This is a practice that has evolved between Hollywood crews and news media over the years, reporters will not disturb the crew too much, and the crew will also cooperate with media interviews appropriately.

To be exact, it's a win-win event.

Even if Duke's film wants to be a big hit, it needs a lot of and full publicity.

A few days ago, the hero and heroine Andrew? Garfield and Amber? Heard was interviewed separately, and Duke never minded going into battle in person when it was necessary to promote the film.

"Duke, can you tell us about your purpose in making Transformers a live-action movie?" A reporter from the Los Angeles Times preemptively asked, "There's a lot of news that you really like the series?" ”

"Yes, I love this series very much." Duke nodded without hesitation, "I said, I've always loved the toys and cartoons in this series. ”

"As for why a live-action film version was made."

After a moment's pause, Duke continued, "I don't think there's ever been a screen scene in all the years of filmmaking where a truck has been shown turning into a 20-foot-tall robot, and I wanted to make a work that pays homage to the classic cartoons of the past and to find out what Hollywood's imagination has been lost for years." There will be many moments in the movie that have touched us, even if you are over 30 years old, when you see the movie, you still feel like a 10-year-old child's eye-opener. ”

"But there are a lot of people who are criticizing ......"

The reporter who didn't know which newspaper in the back took out a few conceptual design drawings of Optimus Prime released by the crew, "Such robots don't have any sense of reality, and their slender and slender bodies can't bear their weight at all." ”

"Who said they were robots?" Duke spread his hands and said, "They're the first favorite of mechanical lifeforms!" It is a higher life with thoughts, feelings, hobbies, and dislikes just like human beings, and it should have a beautiful streamlined body just like human beings. ”

Duke stretched out his right index finger and emphasized, "Remember, they are not those boxy and bulky robots made of steel, and if they were to be designed to look like clumsy robots, it would look fake and boring, because they don't look like intelligent life in an alien galaxy, but like inferior robot products made by the Japanese." ”

In this regard, the crew, Warner Bros. and Hasbro have reached a complete agreement, and various preliminary preparations have been carried out quickly on this basis.

Although the film is still early before its release, the promotion of publicity and spin-offs has already begun.

Beginning in October, Hasbro and Warner Bros. spent two months creating a toy line for the film, with the help of the main creative staff of the film, with the toys of Tinder, Optimus Prime and Red Spider going global a month before the film's release, and the first wave of dolls to be launched next spring.

The toys will also feature several characters from the second film, including Yokogun and Arcie, most of which contain moving parts that allow them to truly transform.

In terms of publicity and distribution, Warner Bros. reached distribution agreements with exhibitors in more than 80 countries and regions after months of negotiations, many of which will be released simultaneously with North America.

In terms of promotion, many sponsors such as General Motors, Panasonic, Lenovo Computer, Burger King and Coca-Cola have already obtained relevant image and character licenses from the "Transformers" studio, and from next spring, they will successively launch many products related to the "Transformers" live-action movie to warm up the movie.

Props used for the shoot, including a prototype sedan of the Bumblebee and a tinder source, will be put on Amazon.com for charity sale by marketers after the filming is over.

In addition, Hasbro and Warner Bros. have set up a website called District 7, which features a viral marketing alternative reality game in which the film participates in a covert operation called 'Hungry Dragon' along with all previous Transformers toys.

There are also a number of tidbits on the website that provide 'evidence' of the existence of Transformers on Earth, including the prototype sedan of the Bumblebee.

Filming in Las Vegas lasted about a week, and then the crew moved to Hoover Dam, which, like the Pentagon, has been denied all Hollywood film crews since 911, and "Transformers" was the first crew to shoot on location at Hoover Dam since September 2001.

This is one of the famous attractions in the United States, in order not to affect the normal operation of the dam, the crew has to get up early every day, and then end the filming before 10 o'clock in the morning, the Hoover Dam will be open to tourists after 10 o'clock, and the pedestrians will definitely bring a lot of trouble to the crew.

Starting with the filming of Hoover Dam, Peter? Cullen has also joined the crew, and the voice actor of the animated version of Optimus Prime will use his voice to evoke memories of the series for those who are nostalgic.

Among his lines, he naturally includes the 'freedom and rights to all beings' voted on the Internet.

No matter what the actual situation in the United States is, 'Freedom and Rights to All Beings' is definitely the best embodiment of American-style values in the film, and it also interprets Optimus Prime's thoughts and ideology.

Applied to the real world, this is an ideological battle, which is a war that transcends ethnic, geographical and cultural backgrounds, and there is no possibility of compromise at all. (To be continued)
