Section 264 Final Preparations

Revising the script is not a simple matter, in order to add the character of Li Jingyuan, Russell has already flown to Europe, and if the plot of the movie is greatly revised now, the time will be a little insufficient.

Since it's so troublesome to make changes, why don't you revise them?

Considering that what Li Jingyuan said is still very reasonable, Russell is also a little hesitant, and he is also afraid that no one will buy the movie he makes, after all, for any director, he would not want his film to attract countless criticisms after the screening.

Just when Russell was struggling, one of Mira's suggestions solved his trouble, and it was actually very simple, which was to shoot two different ways for individual shots, and wait until post-production to pick and choose which one was suitable.

If it's a general science fiction film, this proposal is a bit nonsense, after all, many shots in science fiction films are made by computers to do special effects, and making one more special effects shot means investing countless amounts of money.

But in this film, this method is just right. According to the original plan, those big scenes were originally to be filmed, so the special effects production cost was prepared a long time ago, and there was no possibility of additional investment. The most important part is the action of the characters and some clips that can be shot without special effects processing, such simple requirements are still easy to complete, as long as you shoot a few more sets of shots for backup, and it will not cause any burden on the funds.

Whether the shot is modified or not is something that Russell and Paul have to care about, for the time being, they don't need Li Jingyuan to help, he can only give some advice, after all, Paul and Russell's skills in writing scripts are also good.

didn't have to get involved in revising the script, Li Jingyuan plunged headlong into his own work. In this movie, he still needs to complete a lot of tasks, the most important of which is to play his own role.

In addition to this job, Li Jingyuan also has to take on the role of movement director and soundtrack, and there are a total of three tasks that he needs to complete.

Fortunately, there is still a sequence of these three things, and they don't need to be completed at the same time, at least, the soundtrack doesn't need to be considered for the time being, and the work can be started after the film is finished and enters the post-production stage, which can be regarded as reducing Li Jingyuan's lot of pressure.

There is no rush in the soundtrack, so there are only two things left to do now, and at Russell's request, the first thing Li Jingyuan dealt with was the problem on the action team's side.

The two identities of actor and action director are very important to Li Jingyuan personally, but for the operation of the entire crew, it is more important to be an action director. In this film, the two people who use the most fighting moves are the heroine Alice and Lee Kyung-won's Wesker. Lee, Li Jingyuan's role is not enough, if Alice's actions are not well designed, it will be a disaster for the film.

In Li Jingyuan's view, it is actually very simple to design actions for his character, but the difficulty now is to design suitable movements for Mila, a beauty who was born as a model. In order to design a set of actions that have strong visual effects but can make Mira do smoothly, Li Jingyuan is also very nervous.

Don't look at the usual Li Jingyuan who is often funny, but when facing work, he is still very serious. Now that he has accepted the identity of action director, Li Jingyuan certainly hopes to do his best work.

"Resident Evil, a world-famous game, in order to deserve such a status, Li Jingyuan certainly hopes that Alice, which is made by his hands, will become a world-famous screen image, just like Angelina. Julie plays the same as Laura.

To achieve such a result, of course, it is necessary to put in more efforts, for Li Jingyuan and Mira, they are both willing to pay, but trouble arose at this time.

Li Jingyuan couldn't have imagined that Mira, a beautiful woman who looks like the best and has a soft body, is actually a character who is almost an action idiot. Because in the first two episodes of the movie, Alice played by Mira used firearms to fight the enemy most of the time, so this weakness was not shown, but in this episode, Russell asked for Alice to do close-quarters combat with the zombies, so the problem was exposed at once. ,

"Oh my God, I said Sister Mira, no matter how dull you are, you won't be able to share the same hands and feet, right?" When he saw Mila and a staff member, Li Jingyuan was completely stunned, Mira swung her right fist and kicked her right leg at the same time, which looked very awkward, and after making the attack, she actually lost her center of gravity and sat on the ground.

"Hehe, I'm sorry, come again, I'll pay attention this time." may feel that she is really embarrassed by her appearance, and Mira is also a little embarrassed.

"Forget it, let's take a rest first, let me think about how I can train you well." The irritable brain hurt a little, and Li Jingyuan asked Mira to stop being funny and start thinking.

"Hey, don't talk nonsense, what is femdom?" Li Jingyuan's unconscious words made Mila blush a little when she heard it.

If it were in normal times, Li Jingyuan would inevitably have to talk nonsense with her when he heard Mila say this, but now, how can he have that thought, his mind is now full of Mira's clumsy figure just now, and he is almost annoyed.

"Lee, can we try to hang a wire and fight like in The Matrix, if we do, I shouldn't have a problem moving around." Seeing that Li Jingyuan had been thinking, Mira also knew that it was because of her own reasons, and while feeling guilty, she also tried to think of a solution.

"You mean that 360-degree kick in the air?" Seeing Mira nodding vigorously, Li Jingyuan was a little speechless: "I said eldest sister, you can save it, that action is not suitable for you." ”

Li Jingyuan rejected his proposal so simply, it seemed as if he didn't have time to think for even a second, Mira was a little unhappy, in the habits of Europeans and Americans, this is complete contempt.

"What's the matter?,I think it's good.,If you jump up.,Just attack with your legs.,Then you don't have to think about the movements in your hands.,And if you're in the air.,You don't have to think about whether you can stand firm.,Anyway, it's hanging a wire.,Just put me down when the kick is over."

What Mila said was the truth, but Li Jingyuan laughed after hearing it: "Hehe, what you think is too simple." Don't you know the way? Russell wants you to use a weapon, but you want to jump up and kick someone with a knife, isn't that cramping? ”

"And I didn't let you kick people with your feet just now, I just told you to use a reasonable pace to dodge the opponent's attack, have you forgotten?" Thinking of Mira's action with the same hands and feet just now, Li Jingyuan was angry, and he said early in the morning that she should not kick with her feet, but when the sparring partner approached, the woman still subconsciously raised her legs and kicked them directly.

"Okay, okay, you have the final say, I'll pay attention to it in the future." was said by Li Jingyuan, Mira had no choice but to smile wryly, who made her forget Li Jingyuan's advice when she was in a hurry, this is still when she is practicing, if she still does this during filming, then she will not be able to forget it, it is estimated that she will be scolded by Russell to cry.

"By the way, you said you want me to use weapons, what kind of weapons are they, I remember a few days ago you didn't say that the original props were not suitable? Is it done now? After a pause of less than two seconds, Mira continued to ask if she also wanted to see what modifications Li Jingyuan had come up with and what kind of fighting weapons he had redesigned.

"If you don't say that I forgot, I'm all mad at you." After glancing at Mira, Li Jingyuan stood up, patted the dust on his buttocks, and walked towards the props warehouse: "Let's go, go, the people from the props team told me this morning that it has been done, as for your question, I'll think about it later, now my head needs to rest urgently." ”

After a while, the two of them came to the props warehouse, and after saying hello to the person in charge of keeping the props, Li Jingyuan saw the new props that had only been made this morning.

"This thing is so handsome, it's too domineering." I have to say that Hollywood filmmakers are still very powerful, whether it is the level of prop production or other aspects of the world's first-class skills, looking at the weapons in front of him, Li Jingyuan is also full of admiration.

In front of Li Jingyuan were two strangely shaped weapons, their scientific names are Nepalese sabers, which are commonly known as dog-leg knives. The blade, about forty centimeters long, bends in a strange arc, like the crotch of a dog's hind legs, and looks like it has a wild charm.

Because they are props, for safety reasons, these two knives are not opened, but are only colored with professional metallic paint to make them look sharp, and as for the weight of the knives, they are no different from the real finished product.

"Guys, you're doing a great job, that's what I want, by the way, there's another one, is it done?" Mira's equipment is ready, and now Li Jingyuan's own equipment is left.

"Of course, we are professionals, of course what you want is ready, you wait, this will be brought to you."
