Chapter 276: Extras (Subscription Requested)
For this guidance of Mr. Director, Bruce Willis was also a little dumbfounded.
Although it was simply excessive, he did not feel that this guidance was wrong.
Because this scene is a rivalry between Dr. Malcolm, played by him, and his wife, played by Olivia.
According to the plot, the wife played by Olivia could not see her husband Malcolm.
From this point of view, Charlotte's guidance really hit the nail on the head.
It's just, such a simple suggestion, can Olivia Williams, a woman with good looks but only five acting skills, really do it?
Bruce Willis was skeptical.
However, Charlotte once again showed her magical scheduling ability for the camera -
He ordered the props crew to adjust the angle of the table and move the angle of the camera, so that Bruce Willis was not sitting in front of Olivia, but in the shot, a scene of them sitting facing each other was formed.
"So you can start shooting again!"
Looking at the miraculous operation of Mr. Director, Bruce Willis only has one word left.
Then, the filming of this scene went really well-
Bruce Willis, no, it's Dr. Malcolm hurrying to a restaurant, where Olivia, who plays his wife, with a look of nonchalance.
The doctor said sorry to his wife.
He feels that he has been losing his sense of time a lot lately, probably because his work is not going well.
But his wife kept her head down and ignored him completely.
The doctor kept explaining β
"I know I'm alienating you, I know you're angry......"
But the wife still did not say a word, and even, when the doctor reached out and tried to grab his wife's hand, the wife took it away.
"Happy wedding anniversary. β
The wife only said this in the end, and left in a hurry.
βCutοΌβ
Charlotte, who was behind the monitor, nodded,
"This shot was good!"
Mr. Director slapped his face,
"Next scene!"
The staff of the scene recorder and drama immediately ran over and began to prepare for the future.
And Ovilia Williams breathed a sigh of relief.
Just now, when she heard Charlotte's guidance, she still doubted whether she could do it. But Mr. Director only adjusted the scene and shot, and she immediately felt a lot more relaxed.
- In this way, when shooting, she can really be Bruce Willis "non-existent".
This is completely in line with the setting of the script.
After all, according to the story, what the audience sees from the perspective of the male protagonist is the wife's dissatisfaction with her husband who is busy with work, but in fact, it is the wife who can't see her husband at all.
Ovilla felt like she had finally found the feeling of playing against Bruce Willis.
- In simple terms, "when he doesn't exist" is fine.
Although it is easier said than done, Ovilla finally has a direction to work towards, which makes her performance much more decent in the subsequent filming.
In contrast, Toni Collette, who plays the little boy Cole's mom Lynn, is a little more troublesome.
"If I had such a kid in reality, I wouldn't be as strong as Lynn!"
After filming another rivalry with Sam Phil, Tony, as a "mother", began to chat with her "son" Sam,
"Sam, if you were really like Cole, born with yin and yang eyes that can see ghosts, would you be scared?"
β......β
Sam Phil looked at Toni Colette with a strange look for a long time before he said,
"I'll be scared at first, but after a long timeβ"
Sam looked around,
"I guess I'll get used to it!"
"Then you're brave!"
Toni Colette said this in a tone peculiar to a praising child, and pinched Sam's cheek.
This provokes Sam's protest, which causes Toni to giggle and Sam rolls his eyes.
- What would he have just said about "bravery" or something, but it's just his real experience!?
Since the other day, there have been several ghosts floating around on the set every day, and even when filming some scenes related to ghosts, they are directly attached to the extras who play ghosts.
In this case, even if Sam was still a little scared at first, he has become accustomed to tossing and turning until now.
What's more, he secretly asked Mr. Director, who can also see ghosts, before, but the answer he got was-
"That's a special actor I hired!"
At that moment, Mr. Director's tone was very flat, but Sam felt that the other party was simply handsome.
- If only I could do the same in the future!
Sam thought enviously in his heart, and gradually stopped being afraid of the ghosts that haunted the set.
- Mr. Director has said it, this is a special actor he invited, what's so scary?
The only thing that made Sam depressed was that the main body seemed to be a lot colder on the set in Malcolm's sanatorium.
Although it can only be regarded as early spring, and the weather is normal to fluctuate from hot and cold, Sam feels that this change is eighty percent related to the ghosts that haunt the set.
"Is it really like in the script, when the ghost is angry, the temperature drops and it becomes very cold?"
Sam pondered to himself.
This sentence is the line of Cole, which he plays, and he naturally remembers it very clearly.
And now it seems that this line is not fiction.
"Of course that line is fiction!"
After the day's shooting, as a curious child, Sam Phil couldn't help but ask Charlotte this question, but what he got was a funny answer from Mr. Director,
"If nothing else, Alexis knows you well! She's essentially a kind of ghost, have you ever felt cold when you're around her, or as the script says - "cold hairs stand on end, like you're in the abyss"?"
"Not really. β
Sam Phil thought for a moment,
"But Miss Alexis is so nice, I've never seen her angry!"
β......β
- Child, that's your delusion!
Although she wanted to complain like this, Charlotte finally didn't say bad things about Miss Valkyrie, but explained it to Sam Phil,
"The reason why the set is cold is indeed related to ghosts and spells, but not because of their presence and anger, but so that they can appear-"
β......β
Sam shook his head, indicating that he didn't understand at all.
This was expected by Charlotte, who continued,
"These ghosts are actually people who have died in the past in Malcolm's sanatorium, but they are not ordinary ghosts, but some remnant spirits, under normal circumstances, they cannot appear in front of adults like me, which can easily cause them to dissipate completely. β
"So I've only seen these ghosts on the set before?"
Sam's reaction was quick, and he immediately understood what Charlotte meant,
"And the reason why these ghosts are haunting the set now is because of some kind of spell you cast, Mr. Director, right?"
"Yes. β
Charlotte nodded,
"I set up a magic circle on the set, so that these remnant souls can haunt and not dissipate around normal adults, at the cost of a slight decrease in temperature!"
"It's like in the refrigerator, where the cold keeps the food fresh. β
