Chapter 658: See the explosion again

Readx;?Top Recommendation:、、、、、、、

All the hot battle scenes, Duke filmed in person, and some literary scenes and scenes such as fighter planes taking off were handed over to Anna? Prinz, according to the plan that was made, the filming period of the film was only eighty days, and there could be no delay at any time. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Good thing Anna? Prinz is no newbie either, and when Duke led the crew to the White Sands Missile Range in New Mexico, she had already flown to the Pentagon to shoot a few scenes there.

On the filming site designated by the Baisha missile range for the crew, a dilapidated village in the Middle East-style style has long been built. Tatum and other actors who starred in the special forces, after a certain period of training, also have a little more fierce temperament, at least they look like soldiers from the outside.

Dozens of trailers were parked far enough away from the perimeter, and the military also set up a cordon around the village, and the explosion scenes filmed by Duke were not just blown up with soft **, and a large number of military ** would be used for filming here.

This is the Baisha missile range, and he can also let it go and blow it up.

"Jos! Jose! ”

Standing on a high platform in the village, Duke shouted a few times with a megaphone, waiting for Jos? William trotted up to the podium, and he said, "Remember to communicate with the actors and don't have accidents." ”

"Someone is doing it." Jose? William gave Duke a reassuring look.

Duke looked at Channing, who was sorting out his equipment not far away? Tatum and the others nodded, "I hope they won't be frightened." ”

The scale of the explosion was a bit large, and the members of his team were used to working in this environment, and it is difficult to say whether these actors would panic even after a period of military training.

However, Duke is not worried that those actors who play special forces will be scared, in the face of a powerful unknown creature, especially the type of Sark giant, it is normal for someone to be scared out of their guts, special forces are very tough, but they are not out of the category of people. Just like "Saving Private Ryan" shows, the soldiers on the battlefield are always diverse, and not all of them are the kind of people who shout slogans and are not afraid of death.

There will be a certain uncertainty in the performance of the actors here, but the actors are also scattered. In addition to the panoramic shots, the close-ups given to them will be shot by the camera assistant alone, and editing this amazing film technique can also remove a lot of scenes that Duke does not want to see.

"Jos, do you see the tallest tulou in the distance?"

Duke points to the southeast corner of the village. It was the furthest place from the battle between the Sark Giants and the American troops, "Blow it up, and I want the dust and smoke from its explosion to reach two hundred feet into the sky." ”

Jose? William stared at it for a moment and said, "No problem, leave it to me." ”

Waiting for Jos? William left, and Duke called John again? Schwartzman asked him to arrange for a helicopter to be filmed to capture footage of the explosion when it arrived.

Since ** days, Duke has not been blown up like this in a long time.

Got off the high platform and walked around the two boom trucks that were being filmed. Duke found Channing? Tatum and other actors.

"Channing ......"

He beckoned over there, Channing? Tatum and the others immediately ran over, "Director? ”

"The scale of the explosion scene may be a bit big." Duke advised, "Be sure to follow the set route. Also, you have to control your emotions, and if you can't control it, I will allow you to be deserters. ”

Channing? Tatum and the others glanced at each other, their faces were somewhat embarrassed, even in the movie, no one wanted to be a deserter.

"Director. We ......"

Duke patted Channing? Tatum shouldered and said, "Just do your job well, don't worry about anything else." ”

After telling the actors. Duke is at the front of the village, and the model of the Sark Giant has been transported, and then it will be blown up by the crew.

This will be the first Decepticon that the U.S. military has eliminated.

In the previous movie, the imbalance of combat effectiveness between the Decepticons and humans can be said to be an obvious problem, although the attack on the US military position at the beginning has the factor of a sneak attack. And the U.S. military is also notoriously bad at dealing with sneak attacks, but the combat effectiveness shown between the Decepticons and the U.S. military in the back is really a bit exaggerated compared to the opening scene.

Just like Duke said, Transformers are powerful, but not invincible, so he changed the beginning of the film, attacking the US military base in Qatar, not only the attack, but also the thunder and the uproar.

In addition, the Sark Giant will no longer be an accessory to the raid, but will become a separate combat unit like the original anime, and his strength will be further strengthened, and he will launch a surprise attack from underground.

The four King Kongs launched attacks from the air, ground and underground, striking in all directions, so as to take out a US military base.

The crew received tens of millions of dollars in military sponsorship from the Pentagon, and Duke would definitely consider the image of the military, in the open field of the desert, more than a dozen fighter jets and several gunboats were dispatched at the same time, using the most advanced weapons in the column, especially armor-piercing shells and other equipment, even the Decepticons could not withstand it.

The Sark Giant will be torn to shreds by a fierce blow from the air.

This setting is not only for the sake of balancing combat effectiveness, Duke is also considering the entire series, although Optimus Prime is the absolute protagonist, but it is impossible for humans to only play soy sauce, after all, it is humans who watch the movie, not Transformers.

Returning to his director's position, Duke waited patiently, this huge set was not so easy to set up, and there was only one chance to shoot, and this part of the building would be reduced to ruins under the heavy fire of the Sark giants.

"The film crew is ready......

"The prop set is ready......

"The actor is ready ......"

"Fireworks Team Ready......"

The assistant director sent messages to Duke, and after getting the news that all the departments were ready, he raised the megaphone.

"Let's go!"

With Duke's order, the originally quiet set immediately turned into a noisy battlefield, with gunshots and explosions ringing out incessantly.

Duke was already standing behind the director's monitor, and his main focus was on the explosion footage and Channing? The footage of Tatum and another black actor, it doesn't matter how many other people's scenes are, if the performance is bad, just cut it out.

A loud explosion suddenly sounded on the left-hand side, and the tallest tulou in the village seemed to have been hit by a cruise missile, and countless gunpowder smoke rose into the air, soaring hundreds of feet into the sky, and then collapsed with a bang.

The carefully calculated explosion would not have spilled over into the set, but some dust still drifted over.

Duke duly called a stop, waited for the dust to clear, cleaned the set again, and started filming again.

The military cooperated just right, ten minutes later, several groups of fighters swept over the battlefield from a low altitude, although it was impossible to launch any missiles, but it was enough for shooting, and other effects could be added in post-production.

Maybe it's because of enough military training, the actors' performances are not too good, but it's enough for a film of the Transformers genre, even though the Sark Giant was blown apart, Chanin? The panic on Tatum's face can't be concealed at all, but it has nothing to do with the overall situation.

In post-production, just cut out this shot.

This is the end of the filming, and with the exception of a few houses used to set up cameras, nearly half of the small village is in ruins. Tatum's team also 'killed' several people......

"No need for a remake, right?"

On the platform where Duke is located, Tina? Fei walked up wearing a large mask, looked at the monitor screen playing, and asked, "The military called me, and if they need to reshoot, they can let the second batch of fighters take off." ”

Looking at the footage played on the monitor, Duke did not answer immediately, but after watching the footage taken by each camera, this was the only way to say to Tina? Fei said, "No need, you will personally hang up the phone to the Pentagon later, and say that the crew and I are very grateful for the support of the military." ”

The military's support allowed the crew to save tens of millions of dollars in filming dollars, which could be transferred to post-production, resulting in better special effects.

Tina? Faye turned her eyes to the side of the stairs and reminded Duke, "Channing? Tatum is coming. ”

Turning off the monitor, Duke turned around, Channing? Tatum had already walked over, he raised his hand to greet Duke, and said, "Director Rosenberg, my scenes here are all over, if the crew doesn't have a plan to shoot more, I plan to leave the White Sands missile range this afternoon." ”

Duke thought for a moment and said, "Yes." ”

Channing? Tatum said a few more polite words, turned around and left.

"He was supposed to go to Sony Columbia's crew to report."

As a production manager, Tina? Faye seems to be well aware, "Another line of toys from Hasbro is also making a movie. ”

"Joe Special Forces?" Duke asked, turning his head.

"Well, it's the special forces."

When it comes to the fame of toys in North America, the special forces are even bigger than the Transformers series, Tina? Fei said, "If my news is correct, Channing? Tatum will be the male lead, and he plays the role of Duke. ”

"Duke?"

In fact, this series is also very suitable for adaptation into movies, especially terrorism not only did not disappear, but continues to spread today, but Duke was a little late and did not get the adaptation rights, and the sequel to this series was difficult to deliver, and the main reason was not the popularity of the special forces, but the director's problem.

Stephen? Sommos's copyright is quite good, and it is also a good start for the series, but the sequel directed by the director who took over is really not complimentary.

"Duke, there's one more thing." Tina? Fei reminded again, "You're going back to Los Angeles for the premiere of 'WALL-E'." (To be continued.) )
