Chapter 564: Test Shooting
Chapter 564: Test Shot (Page 1/1)
[Revised Version]
I have to say that this explosives expert from Hollywood still has two brushes in his hands, and after working for a short time, he was praised by Lao Yang.
It is said that peers are enemies, and Lao Yang can praise a peer so much, and he is also a foreigner, which shows Coverdale's personal ability.
To take a simple example, the same blasting point has the same charge. Lao Yang's demolition team used one medicine pack or a maximum of two medicine packs. Coverdale, on the other hand, has to make six or even ten medicine packs.
To put it simply, two huge artillery battles were divided into six or seven small artillery battles, which were blasted at the same time in parallel. In this way, the energy generated by the small medicine packets connected in parallel is actually not much smaller than the medicine packets produced by the large medicine packets.
What's more, these packets are evenly divided at the location to be blasted. This results in a better explosion and the resulting debris is finer and less likely to injure people, which is very useful in a more confined studio.
The second is to strictly calculate the blasting yield and blasting orientation range, not only to ensure the effect of blasting, but also to ensure the safety of the actors and other personnel in the venue.
Although Lao Yang has also done a good job in this regard, he has always used his own methods. And this time, Coverdale has standardized it, so that the parameters that only Lao Yang of the fireworks group can understand in the past can be seen at a glance in front of Han Li.
Looking at such clear data information, this made Han Li and Tong Yongjun a lot more confident in the filming of this scene.
At seven o'clock in the morning on the third day of Coverdale's arrival, after everyone had breakfast, the filming of the scene officially began.
Of course, it is impossible to shoot immediately, you need to test shoot twice first. On the one hand, it is to familiarize the actors with the positioning, and on the other hand, to conduct a rehearsal to prepare for the official shooting. After all, it took a lot of effort to arrange this blasting shot, both materials and manpower cost a lot, and it was necessary to ensure that it was shot well and there could be no chance of reshooting. Otherwise, there will be huge losses, not only in terms of funds, but also in terms of schedule progress.
"Come, attention departments, the sixth scene of the three hundred and twenty shots, the first test shooting preparation, three, two, one, action!"
As the sign fell, the test shooting of this scene finally began.
"Be careful, run, run!"
……
Dong Xuan, Tian Lu and other actors began to run in the huge artificial scene, tearing and shouting over there as they ran, looking very involved. For these actors, they still have some psychological pressure in this scene.
After all, they are all young actors, and they haven't experienced much explosion scenes. This contact made for a big, and it was such a dangerous scene in the studio, and it was understandable that they were nervous and scared.
Although in order to set up the scene these days, the actors are resting in the hotel. But they didn't do everything beautifully, but filmed many times in private to ensure that the scene could be filmed smoothly.
However, there is no explosion effect, and I always feel a little embarrassed that these actors are acting like this.
"Cards!"
Tong Yongjun held the megaphone and shouted: "It's too hard, I feel like you are not filming, but acting in a stage play." To invest in understanding or not, investing! Imagine yourself in this scene, this environment. ”
Hearing Tong Yongjun's words, Han Li stared at the actors for a while, and then said to a young assistant director standing on the side: "Go, find a stereo, and find some explosive sound effects." When they act, they put on these explosion effects to give them some external stimulus and let them find a feeling. ”
"Yes." The assistant director answered, and ran out.
Tong Yongjun nodded slightly when he heard Han Li's words, and then stared at the scene and didn't know what he was thinking.
And Coverdale, who had been watching the filming process for a long time, shouted at the actors dancing at this time. After the translation, everyone learned that it turned out that it was Coverdale who asked the actors to pay attention to their movements.
In fact, before the test shooting, the pyrotechnician will repeatedly explain to the actors which are the safe areas in the venue, and which are the dangerous areas where the explosion points are buried, or within the explosion range, so that the actors can pay attention to avoid them when acting.
But acting is no better than anything else, and there is no fixed answer. Therefore, often the actors who enter the play will forget these precautions, which will cause danger.
So when it comes to filming, pyrotechnicians are actually more nervous than the actors. They need to keep an eye on the situation on the set to make sure they can stop the blasting and interrupt the shoot in time.
But in this way, it means that the filming of this scene failed. If you want to shoot again, you have to rearrange the venue, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive. So during the test shoot, the pyrotechnicians will repeatedly correct the actors' movements, which is also when they are in full swing.
And in the entire crew, they are the biggest at this moment, whether it is the director or the actors, they have to listen to their orders, after all, this is a matter of life.
asked the actors to adjust it, and seeing that all departments were ready, Tong Yongjun immediately started the second test shooting.
"Here, the sixth scene of the 320th shot, the second test shot, three, two, one, action!"
"Run, don't look back, run!"
……
This time is obviously much better than the first time, and under the stimulation of the explosion sound effect, the actors also began to gradually enter the state, and the performance became more tense.
It's just that Han Li is a little dissatisfied with this. Because the actors acted too deliberately, they didn't have the instinctive fear and eagerness to flee after the catastrophe came.
But this feeling is not something that can be performed by speaking, even if the actor has a lot of acting skills, I am afraid it is difficult to perform this feeling.
However, in general, people will instinctively fear loud noises and fireworks. Therefore, when the official filming is completed, the explosion point explodes, and the actors' performances will be more or less mixed with some personal fear, which is more suitable for the psychological and physical reactions of the character's environment.
But there is also a certain problem with this, that is, some people will be afraid, which will lead to their wrong lines and deformed movements. There are even some actors who have not experienced such an explosive scene, and they may be stunned for a while after the start of filming.
Therefore, in order to avoid this situation, then the actors can only keep coming to test shoots. Let them get used to the environment and be able to memorize their lines and movements.
In addition, in the previous filming, the actors also experienced some gunfights and explosion scenes, although the scale is relatively small, but they know how it is for a while. Be prepared to make sure they don't make mistakes by panicking while filming such a big explosion scene.
