Chapter 428: Sound Dream Adventure
"The main purpose of doing this is to buy time!"
Charlotte to Old Gun and Alexis Dao,
"Even though I've made the Elder Wand, under the influence of magic, those children will become more and more like the characters in the book. But, after all, it will take time. β
"So you're going to need a couple of months or even half a year for these kids to change?"
Alexis asked,
"Then what are we going to do in the next six months? Delaying for half a year for no reason is not conducive to the cost control of the film, right?"
"This is natural!"
Charlotte nodded,
"Therefore, during this time, we can't be idle, all the preparatory work that can be done must be completed in advance, even including some later work!"
"Are you kidding?"
The old gun on one side interjected,
"It's not that you don't understand, the reason why the post-production is post-production is because a lot of work needs to be done on the original dailies shot by the actors, and now there are no original dailies, what to do in the post-production?"
"Under normal circumstances, it is!"
Charlotte said with a smile,
"However, with the help of the Elder Wand, it is different. β
"What do you mean?"
"I told you! I made an old wand, and it was a real wand. β
Charlotte's face was mysterious,
"The magic, while not as interesting and mysterious as the Harry Potter story, is not simple - it can control and connect dreams. β
"It's because you're using the power of nightmares in it, right?"
Charlize, who had been listening in silence, suddenly asked.
"Yes. β
Charlotte nodded,
"With the power of nightmares, I can construct a common dream for those children. β
"Like between us?"
Charlize was suddenly interested.
Recently, the girl has been on vacation in the UK.
Although most of the time, she was with Charlotte - after all, during the filming of "The Happiness Line Behind the Dark Clouds", both of them had a bit of hard work.
Therefore, during this time, their lives were a little indulgent.
This can be seen in Charlize's moisturized, increasingly attractive face.
However, it is not a way to live like this.
If Charlotte hadn't been proficient in spells and had carefully checked the room in advance by the Irish leprechaun who had been following her, those eavesdropping and candid camera devices would definitely be enough for the two of them.
- Of course, Charlotte didn't tell Charlize about it.
Because it's a bit annoying and disgusting.
β just like he didn't tell Charlize about it, and then he had the Irish leprechaun do a "prank" and send the car parked near the hotel into the River Thames.
However, even if he didn't feel the "welcome" of the London media circle, after staying like this for more than a month, Charlize was a little bored.
After all, no matter how comfortable the exercise is, if you continue to play for a month, the feeling will be reduced.
And the attractions near London, Charlize has also visited a lot in the past month, and the so-called British style has also decreased in its attractiveness to girls for a while.
In fact, Charlize is now somewhat tempted to go back to work.
However, the shooting time of her next movie was in early 1998. And at present, it seems that this little time is not enough for her to do anything else.
Therefore, in recent times, in addition to the tour, the girl will also accompany Charlotte to participate in the casting of "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone".
Originally, this could only be said to be a kind of adjustment after vacation, but today's words of Charlotte really aroused her interest-
Charlize has always felt that the dream world created by Charlotte with the help of nightmares is grandiose and magnificent, strange and beautiful, and it is really a bit wasteful to use it as a tryst holy place and a fun scene for the two of them.
So, as soon as she heard Charlotte say that she wanted to contact the dream world, the girl reacted intuitively,
"You're not going to make a movie in a dream world, are you?"
"That's the plan!"
Charlotte said with a smile.
"But how do you solve the problem with the camera?"
Charlize asked,
"How can the scene in the dream be transferred to the real world?"
"That's a real problem. β
Charlotte scratched her head,
"I thought about building a dream camera that could shoot the scene in the dream, but at the moment, I'm afraid that even if it was made, the scene would not be clear enough. β
"That'sβ"
"However, unclear is also useful!"
Charlotte waved her hand and said,
"At the very least, if I directly create a common dream for those young actors, in which they re-interpret the plot of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, their proficiency will improve very quickly. β
"Is this an acting training class in a dream?"
"Sort of!"
Charlotte said with a smile,
"Anyway, after repeating this a few times, they will be very proficient in playing their own roles - after all, in the dream world, they are the characters they play. β
"But if they keep dreaming like this, won't they be discovered?"
The old gun asked with some concern.
"Aside from people like me who can do magic, how many people can remember what happened in their dreams?"
Charlotte disagreed,
In fact, in the dream, they don't even realize it's the world of Harry Potter, even though they're very familiar with the story β they just experience the life of their characters in the real world. β
"And they don't remember this experience, they just lurk in the depths of their subconscious, and it doesn't show until we actually shoot it. β
"I see!"
The old gun nodded,
"It's a real time-saver, because it's very difficult to shoot kids and animals β they can't command and control them β and if you do it well, you can save at least one to two months of shooting time. Butβ"
The old gun glanced at Charlotte,
"The unclear dream scene you just said is also useful, it should be more than just a little use, right?"
"Of course!"
Charlotte said with a smile,
"The main purpose is to use it as a reference for us to start post-production in advance. β
"You meanβ"
"Because of the repeated rehearsal in the dream, the children's performance in the real shooting is estimated to be the same as the scene captured by the dream camera, only more clearly. β
"This way, we can refer to the footage captured by the dream camera and design and prepare all kinds of post-production effects in advanceβespecially the parts that can't be supported by spell effects and can only be done by computer technology. β
"And when the shooting is really done in the end, we just have to reverse and move the characters to the special effects scenes that have been prepared in advance!"
"It's like green screen photography!!"
