Chapter 613: The Dark Knight is finished
The filming of "Batman: The Dark Knight" has always been under Li Chencan's own control.
After the "Song of the Earth" affair ended a little while, Li Chencan returned to the set of "Batman: The Dark Knight" and began to work on the film.
The shoot that took you is indeed coming to an end.
"Batman: The Dark Knight" enters the section close to the final shooting, and what is being filmed here is about the content of Armageddon, which is the final showdown between the Joker and Batman.
The choice between the two ships exposed a lot of things, and some Batman became the final Dark Knight...... Since then, he can only walk in the dark, and he has completely embarked on a different path from other superheroes. Other superheroes, even for a while, have been troubled by a lot of things, and have to stand in a place close to opposite to the police, but they are only temporary, and it won't be long before they can return to the path of bright heroes.
However, Batman is real, completely reduced to a dark hero, in order to ensure the reputation of some people, he carries a lot of blame on himself, and can only hide in the darkness from then on......
One of the main problems with today's shooting scene is that there are too many people, which makes the whole scene seem a bit chaotic, like a vegetable market, and the on-site staff are trying their best to allocate manpower to prevent any problems here, but even so, the scene is still a mess.
After a long time of hard work and coordination, the scene was finally put into the normal shooting track. The crew finally started running.
After filming this segment, the last thing filmed was the dialogue between the Joker and Batman, that is, Batman threw the Joker off the roof. The Joker rattles in the sky, but as the Joker says to Batman, "Your sense of justice is not the right time", so Batman eventually saves the Joker, hangs him in mid-air, and then begins a conversation between the two of them.
This dialogue is more difficult to film, because Li Chencan and almost all of them use live-action shooting. Of course, this is not really hanging the actor who plays the clown upside down at a height of dozens of meters, which is just playing with his life and making it for such a movie. Don't say that Li Chencan can't be so careless about human life, that is, the actors' union will never agree to this kind of thing.
Now it's close to live-action shooting, and the actor who plays the clown is indeed hung upside down, upside down, from a very low place. And this kind of upside-down hanging will only appear when two people have to appear in one shot. If it's just a close-up shot of the clown, then use the camera sense to shoot the feeling of hanging upside down, as for the clown's clothes, hang it with wire from above, and blow his hair up with a hair dryer......
But even so, the actor who plays the clown is quite uncomfortable.
Nolan's version of the clown actor, Heath. Ledger is Australian, actually. He was quite young when he played the Joker, even 27 years old. But the clown he played added too much color to that movie, he previously starred in Ang Lee's "Brokeback Mountain", his acting skills were quite good, and the clown he played has become one of the most classic clown roles in history.
It is really not a simple thing to play a clown well, and the thick oil paint on the face may reduce the difficulty of the performance, but from another aspect, this kind of oil paint requires the actor to use a harder expression to be able to express what he wants to express in front of the camera...... Therefore, the characterization of the role of the clown is to play the rules and make people feel that there is nothing outstanding, but it is not difficult to be out of line, maybe any actor who has received special acting training can do it, but if you want to play the clown, it is not only the Academy Award actor but also the Golden Dragon Award actor, it is difficult to do......
But unfortunately, in another world, Heath Ledger was found dead at home at the age of 28, the year after he played "Batman: The Dark Knight".
This is a great tragedy.
Of course, Li Chencan is in another world, and it is very difficult for him to find the person who plays the clown, Li Chencan spent a lot of time, strict checks, and finally picked out the one in front of him among many actors, this one has no acting skills or anything like that, of course, he usually has a very good acting performance, but after applying oil paint, Li Chencan found that his performance has a very strong tension, much stronger than when he is not painted, Such a performer is indeed the most suitable for clowns.
But even so, the current scene also requires the acting skills of the clown, and there are a lot of feelings to be performed here.
Because "Batman: The Dark Knight" has an unusual story, and this story is different in many ways compared to the first part...... Because "Batman: The Dark Knight" is a sequel to "Batman: Time to War", in the story of "Batman: The Dark Knight", after the first part,. With the strong cooperation of Director Gordon, Batman is no longer a lone hero, and the city of Gotan is returning from the brink of darkness to a clear and safe city. It was at this time that this madman called "Joker" appeared. He doesn't care about money, he doesn't seek fame and fortune, he causes explosions and carnage, all the Joker has to do is reconsider human nature, he wants to force the hands of Batman, who never kills, to stain blood...... Such a clown does not want to destroy Batman physically, but directly destroys Batman mentally.
Such an enemy would be much stronger than the kind of opponent that other superheroes encounter who only thinks about defeating them all day long.
For such a clown to really live, it takes too much effort.
Now this part of the filming is the time when the acting skills of the actor who plays the clown are most tested, and at this moment, under the aim of many cameras, the actor who plays the clown begins to say his own lines.
Having filmed all of his conversations with Batman before, the shot to be shot now is simple but complicated, that is, when Batman finds out that the police have come up, he flashes people in advance, leaving the Joker here, and the Joker hangs upside down in the air, with a terrifying grin.
When the radio reached in front of him, the actor really showed all the clown's voice......
"Over!"
After Li Chencan said a sentence on the walkie-talkie, as everyone spread this sentence out of the microphone, all of a sudden, the whole scene fell into jubilation.
Finally, the second part of "Batman" has been filmed, and the torture under Li Chencan's hands for so long can be regarded as all over now, and almost everyone has a feeling of mixed feelings in their hearts.
"It's over!!" There were also many people who started jumping at this moment and felt very happy.
Li Chencan looked at the jubilant crowd and felt very emotional, "Batman: The Dark Knight" is the most outstanding one in the trilogy, and it is also the most acclaimed one, after its release, it was talked about in everyone's eyes, and the discussion lasted for many years. And now, such a classic work has finally been born under his own hands, and as long as it goes through some post-production and some post-adjustments, this movie will be officially turned into a finished film!
In this way, Li Chencan still has a sense of accomplishment in his heart.
"It's done! It's done! As soon as Li Chencan came out, he was surrounded by a large group of people, these crazy and jumping foreigners wanted to grab Li Chencan's body and throw his hands and feet into the sky one by one, Li Chencan looked at this group of people as if they were joking, and their faces turned green.
"Hey...... Don't mess around, hey, hey...... If this thing is not controlled well, it will kill people! Don't mess with me! After that, Li Chencan was really dragged up and thrown up by everyone.
Two minutes later-
"None of you want to take a red envelope!"
Li Chencan threw down a sentence and left in a huff, and for a while, everyone present had a bitter face, Li Chencan's cruel words were still very lethal to them anyway.
The box office of "Batman: Time to War" is strictly speaking not as good as Li Chencan's previous films, but the influence of this movie is very great, especially the sense of expectation brought by the movie is bursting, and the box office of the movie is not low, so Li Chencan still gave everyone a red envelope at the celebration banquet afterward, and now Li Chencan said don't want to take the red envelope, everyone was immediately dumbfounded.
Suddenly, someone shouted and chased after Li Chencan: "Director Li! We were wrong! We made a big mistake! ”
Li Chencan snorted, why didn't you say that when you threw me like that just now?
At the finale banquet in the evening, everyone ate relatively high, and there was no tradition of pouring wine here, so Li Chencan ate more and almost didn't drink, and he ate quite happily.
The media's nose acuity is usually very sharp, and they soon caught the news that "Batman: The Dark Knight" has been officially completed, and they quickly began to come over to look for news and find answers, but on this day, the "Dark Knight" crew did not accept any reporters at the finale banquet, but quietly finished the meal, and then in the evening, Li Chencan's personal English network, as well as his own Twitter, have updated "Batman: The Dark Knight" on the official website of Fireworks Film Company The news that it has been successfully produced and successfully completed.
At the same time, when updating this kind of news, many photos and stills from the set of "Batman: The Dark Knight" crew were also posted on the Internet, and this matter was announced to the world. (To be continued......)
