"Stockings are a good thing. Women can conquer men when they wear them, and men can conquer banks when they wear them. ”

Charlotte had heard such a sentence before crossing over, and she thought it made a lot of sense.

He liked it a lot, especially the way Charlize wore it.

However, the girl does not often cooperate with his hobbies......

Of course, today he came to the makeup department with stockings, which has nothing to do with his hobby.

"It does look like a stocking. ”

He explained to Annika, Christopher Walken, and stuntman Rob Inch, who looked confused,

"Actually, it's a new technology test product from the Ghost Party Studios. ”

"Experiments?"

spoke, but it was the photographer Addison Young, who was still holding the camera while being brought by Charlottela,

"Charlotte, does it really have the magic you described to me?"

"I can't say this either. ”

said so, but Charlotte's expression was affirmative,

"Alexis, who helped us with the special effects technology before, mentioned to me how achievable it is, but we haven't experimented yet. ”

"Let's experiment now!"

Addison Young's face was excited.

“......”

Several people present were confused by their words, but Charlotte did not explain.

He instructed Annika directly to ask her to remove the shoulder pads from Rob Inchi, who was still dressed as a Headless Horseman, and then dress up again, and then

"Put it on!"

Charlotte handed the black stockings to Rob Ingki, who finally showed his head.

“...... Are you still going to rob a bank?"

The young man who was the action stand-in smiled bitterly, but he still honestly took the stockings and put them on his head,

"Is it okay?"

"I can't see it that way. ”

Charlotte beckoned Annika and Christopher Walken and walked over to Addison Young, who had set up the camera and monitor.

"You'll have to look through the monitor!"

Christopher Walker was a little puzzled by the director in front of him.

As a veteran actor who debuted on Broadway at the age of 16 and won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor in 1979 for "The Deer Hunter", Walken has worked with many directors.

In his opinion, Charlotte Booth, a young director, is a bit strange.

This is not to say that the other party's director level is not good

Walken secretly observed it and felt that the other party's on-set scheduling ability was very good, and the entire crew was running in an orderly manner.

Just looking at that, this doesn't seem to be a bad director.

What's more, Walken has also watched "Fatal Bend" and "Happy Death Day".

Especially the latter, the label of the North American box office exceeding 100 million is simply the best indication of the director's level.

What Walken found strange was the way the actor was directed

Johnny Depp was so frightened that he screamed in horror by the beetles crawling out of the "corpse", which he had seen with his own eyes.

It's the first time he's seen a director who directs the actors' acting skills like this.

However, it seems to work out well?

Thinking of Depp's god-like performance in the next few days, Walken felt that this might set a very bad precedent.

"But what's the use of these stockings?"

As for Mr. Director's struggle with the appearance of the Headless Horseman, Walken is not too surprised.

After all, that's how a director works.

Among the ten directors, four have obsessive-compulsive disorder, five have tangled disorder, and one tangled disorder strengthens obsessive-compulsive disorder.

If the director doesn't bother with a movie when it's made, the movie will either become a masterpiece or a piece of shit.

What Walken was curious about was the other party's way of solving the entanglement

"Since you just said that you were going to seek technical support, then this stocking, what must have been done, right?"

Before seeing the shooting results, Walken was very curious and full of anticipation.

And then

“tf！！！”

Even if he was mentally prepared, the sight he saw through the director's monitor still surprised Walken

The knight's black clothes and armor did not change, but at the head, Rob Inch's head in black stockings disappeared completely.

In its place, there was a cloud of black smoke that looked like a burning flame.

"This ......"

Walken glanced up in disbelief.

Rob Ingki's head, with stockings on his head, was still resting around his neck.

"How is this done?"

Having been in Hollywood for decades, Walken naturally knows how special effects are made.

The reason why post-production special effects have the prefix "post-production" is because it needs to be specially processed after the shooting is completed.

When will this effect be done simultaneously during shooting!?

It wasn't just Christopher Walken who was surprised, neither Annika, who was in charge of makeup, nor photographer Addison Young, who expected to see such a scene.

Especially Addison Young.

Although the new set of filters given by Charlotte during the previous shooting was surprising enough.

But that's a rendering of the overall picture.

For Addison, who is accustomed to filters, this effect is not difficult to understand.

Although he doesn't know how the people who do the special effects achieve it, since it is through the filter, it is not much different from the principle of the filter after all.

But now the effect of making people's heads disappear is a bit beyond his comprehension.

"It's based on principles like green screen photography. ”

Charlotte explains,

"To put it simply, it's just a replacement"

"It's like in green screen photography, where the green part is replaced with a production effect in post-production. Here, Robb's head in black stockings was replaced with black smoke. ”

"I see!"

Mr. Photographer thought about it and shook his head again randomly,

"But even then, it should be replaced later!

"That's why it's a new technology!"

Charlotte shrugged,

"The set of filters that I gave you before is actually a special effect filter made with digital technology. Inside, each has a unique set of rendering effects, like fog, black smoke, and so on. ”

"And then those special effects are superimposed on the normal footage through the filter!?"

Addison Young nodded.

This line of thinking is similar to what he had guessed before. However, Charlotte's remarks do not seem to explain his question.

Wait a minute

Addison Young took another closer look at the captured picture,

"The effect of this black smoke is very similar to the effect of one of the filters you gave me before, does this mean?"

"It's the same special effect!"

Charlotte directly confirmed Addison's speculation,

"That stocking had been soaked in a special paint before, of course, it was non-toxic and harmless. ”

Seeing Rob Inch, who was still wearing stockings, trembled, Charlotte hurriedly explained,

"The light reflected in the non-visible spectrum of this paint is a kind of set mark for our digital filters. ”

"When you encounter it, will you just replace the entire area with a black smoke effect?"

"It's understandable. ”

Looking at everyone's suddenly realized expressions, Charlotte secretly smiled in her heart.

Fooled around.
