When Charlotte woke up Gwyneth, who was victimized by Depp and Winona, she didn't clear her of evil spirits.

And he didn't think that evil spirit would dissipate naturally.

"Could it be that the evil spirit that represents the three original sins has been transferred to the others?"

For a while, Charlotte was suspicious.

However, he also knew that this matter could not be found out for a while.

And he still has work to do—

"I said now, there should be no problem in choosing Charlize as the heroine, right?"

During the previous auditions, Charlotte hadn't spoken much. It wasn't until now that he finally asked.

Both Jodie Foster and Andrew Walker nodded.

With the facts in front of you, there is nothing to argue about.

"Charlotte, how did you feel about visiting Hudson Canyon this time?"

Andrew Walker asked.

"This ...... What can I say?"

Charlotte scratched her head,

"The topography of Hudson Canyon, as well as the preserved architectural style of the ancient village, are very in line with the original book, and the requirements of the script are also similar, if it is a pure costume drama, it is enough. ”

"And yet?"

Jodie Foster asked with a smile,

"You would say that, there must be a yet, right?"

"You're right!"

Charlotte nodded,

"However, what we are going to shoot is a costume fantasy horror film, and the normal scenery of Hudson Canyon alone may not show that dark and eerie style. ”

The story of "Guillotine Valley" itself is dark and weird, even the original "Legend of Sleepy Valley".

So, even if Charlotte wasn't Tim Burton and wouldn't have been able to make movies without dark gothic, he still couldn't use the natural set of Hudson Canyon directly.

"So, do you want to set up an artificial set?"

Andrew Walker asked.

Charlotte Kanjing went with photographer Addison Young, who took documentary footage that Andrew and Jodie Foster had already seen this week.

Therefore, they were not surprised to hear Charlotte's words, and Andrew directly asked the follow-up question.

After all, in this era, images that can't be shot directly on location can only be set up in a studio.

- All-green screen shooting, in this era, the technical realization is still relatively difficult, and it has not become popular on a large scale.

But Charlotte shook her head,

"It would have been too time-consuming and costly to have all the locations set up on a studio. ”

"And what are you going to do?"

"I'm going to shoot on location in Hudson Canyon, but I'm going to use some technical means to render the image to achieve the dark and eerie style that the story requires. ”

"Rendering!? Is it computer-rendered?"

Jodie Foster and Andrew Walker were stunned.

It's not that the two of them haven't been exposed to similar techniques at all, but as far as they know, in order to achieve the effect they wanted in Charlotte's script-

"You can't do it with today's technology, right?"

Charlotte didn't speak. He just turned on his device and, with the help of photographer Addison Young, put up a video ......

Addison Young has been looking forward to this image.

When he and Charlotte were on a tour of Hudson Canyon near New York, the two discussed how to turn ordinary natural scenery into dark and eerie.

Addison didn't think of anything other than a large-scale artificial set.

But Charlotte said that it could be rendered with special effects technology.

"You should be able to render with the kind of technology I mentioned earlier. ”

What he said was clear-sighted, which made Addison, who was originally very skeptical, look forward to it.

And Charlotte did not live up to the expectations of Mr. Photographer.

"It's—"

As soon as she glanced at the video shown by Charlotte, Addison was taken aback.

And soon, Jodie Foster and Andrew Walker, who have also seen a lot of videos and movies, also understood.

"This is the same footage we saw earlier!?"

"It's the same paragraph, that's right. ”

Charlotte nodded,

"The difference is that this section is rendered with special effects. ”

On the screen, the natural scenery is exactly the same as before, but it looks gloomy, dark, and gloomy......

"How, exactly?"

Photographer Addison Young pondered to himself.

He still remembers that many of the shots Charlotte asked him to shoot were a little strange, and most of them used a filter that he hadn't seen before-

"Does it have something to do with that filter?"

When he was shooting on the spot, he didn't notice any changes in the picture after passing through that filter. But now, the processed picture has changed so magically.

"Maybe it's not visible light!"

As a photographer, Addison Young knows a lot about optics. He suspected that the filter Charlotte had given him was to filter out some non-visible light such as ultraviolet light.

"I guess those pop lights will affect the production of special effects, right?"

Addison Young guessed,

"In this way, the Alexis that Charlotte said is really not to be underestimated! There are also perverts among female programmers!"

- Well, although Addison's ideas are somewhat sexist, his guesses are indeed correct, and a small part of them are correct.

- Not the part that has to do with Alexis, of course.

The filter Charlotte gave him could indeed block some invisible light.

But that's not the main purpose of that filter.

Its main function is to record Charlotte's changed image with transfiguration into the camera.

- This is how Charlotte used to say that the transfiguration spell from the evil god was recorded after the transformation.

He turned that filter into something like a living being's eye.

Above it, there is a faint consciousness.

Consciousness from Charlotte herself.

With the interference of the conscious factor, the filter is like the human eye, which can receive the image changes brought about by the transfiguration.

The camera behind the filter will also be affected by the filter and record this change.

Of course, this is not the reason why the originally recorded natural scenery has become gloomy and eerie.

But in essence, the principle is similar.

Since Charlotte has a little consciousness attached to the filter, he can naturally take pictures of something that ordinary people can't see according to his hope-

At that time, he used a spell to condense the yin energy in Hudson's Canyon.

This kind of change, with the eyes of ordinary people, nothing can be seen.

However, if you observe it with a special spell, you can immediately see and measure the yin wind.

Under the influence of Charlotte's spell, Addison Young's camera actually recorded this scene.

It's just that the photographer himself can't see it.

And after Charlotte's aftermath of the treatment, this strange and terrifying scene finally appeared.

— that's the impact now.

"It should be said that this picture has indeed been rendered!"

Charlotte muttered in her heart,

"It's not a digital rendering, though, it's a spell rendering!"

PS1: "Wonderful Images" is a 2011 documentary, which includes Christopher Nolan and Tim Ross, 2: Hudson Canyon, which is the location of the original "Legend of Sleepy Hollow", when "Guillotine Valley" was filmed, the director team did go to see the scenery, and the conclusion was the same as what I wrote in the book, except that they don't know magic like Charlotte, 3: So, "Guillotine Valley" In fact, most of the scenery in this movie is built by hand, which is one of the reasons why it costs so much.
