Chapter 130: A Kick
The finale scene is the only "big scene" in the remastered shot: a few scenes of the wedding.
Those priests don't need to reshoot the vows, exchange wedding rings and other shots, Ye Wei's idea is to match it with soothing music to create some touching atmosphere, after all, the happy ending of love is the original demand of the audience, a pair of nasty ghosts are going to get married despite all difficulties, they will still be moved, kind people!
Touching and sentimental are both very good loveliness, which will make a comedy story more meaningful and memorable, so this part will not be spoofed, and it will be treated as a drama.
But then there is one of the most important laughs in the whole show! The wedding cake accidentally falls to the ground, the old version is Bourne and Kana clumsy, and the new version is the wedding god kicking over.
To reshoot this scene, the scenes, sets, costumes, etc. must be the same as the old shots, and of course the actors present must be the same, and Peter Heller spent a lot of effort in the production to restore it properly. The location was Santa Monica's "Rustic Natural Events" estate, and owner Annette agreed to let the crew shoot for two hours from 15:oo-17:oo that afternoon, free of charge, as long as you put a thank you ad in the end credits!
And today, more than 40 actors (most of them are group performances) have also been restored, and the rest are uncontactable, and none of them are unhappy to be contacted.
At about three o'clock in the afternoon, after school at Harvard-Westlake Junior High School, a group of boys such as Lev and Bud rushed over to the manor, and they wanted to make a cameo as a group performer!
Lily and a few other girls also came to visit the class, and when they arrived at the set on the lawn surrounded by trees in the manor, the scene had already started filming.
This manor is close to nature as the style, everywhere ancient trees into forests, flowers and plants, spring makes the quaint atmosphere more intense, tall palm trees add romance, and with those white gauze cloth swaying in the wind, beautiful as a fairyland on earth.
Connie exclaimed, "My future wedding will be held here." Almost all of the girls had a girlish longing, except for Lily, she didn't join the conversation, although her eyes were also looking around, but there were no heartbeat ripples.
"You're finally here. Over there, Lev and a few people greeted him, and his happy voice was very soft, "Our cameo is over, just now." β
"Oh!" Connie lamented, "I'd like to make a guest appearance as a member of the bridesmaid group." β
Lev said: "I also want to be a member of the groomsmen group, but Master Gia said no, it doesn't match the previous one, and finally we sit in the back row of the guests to increase the number of people, which is not bad!"
"Master Gia?"
"Yes!", "She's so cool!" the boys were excited, even the autistic Colewin smiled, and Master Gia had already conquered their hearts. Bard smirked, "She promised to bring us a bottle of wine, haha!" Lev hurriedly booed, dead fat, it's a secret!
"Wow, really?" several girls also came to be interested.
βnetbsp; At this time, the assistant director stopped, and Ye Wei in the performance area had already noticed Lily and the others, and immediately smiled and waved away, "Hey, beauties, welcome to the VIy world!"
The film crew continued their work, and Gia followed, looking at the girls, who of course she recognized was Lily Collins, the thick-eyebrow girl in a colorful short-sleeved loose T-shirt and a dark blue knee-length skirt, the genius "long-term date", so beautiful.
"You've come at the right time, and the best shots are about to be taken. Ye Wei greeted them, looked at Lily, and said, "You guys, I have to go back to work." β
βokayγ "Go, come on." β
Gia didn't leave, and after talking to them, she looked at Lily with interest, "I have something to tell you, about your long-time date." Somehow Lily was a little nervous: "Oh?" Gia haha, "His acting skills are terrible, and he's in big trouble right away." β
It turned out that the next cake kicking scene was a shot that must be passed within two times, because the crew only prepared two three-tier wedding cakes, and there were only two opportunities to kick out, otherwise it would take a lot of work.
Everyone laughed. Lev looked at Gia with admiration on his face, his big nose was a little red, and said: "Master Jiya, can you let me make a cameo in your promotional video? I did a great job in Brother Wei's short film "Good People Have Good Rewards", the level of an Oscar nomination. β
He said excitedly: "That's right, tomorrow our school's film festival will be held, the Harvard-Westlake High School campus! You can also come, tickets are on a first-come, first-served basis, and there is no charge!" Bard nodded again and again: "Yes, Master Jiya, we will take you in." β
"I'll go and see which bastard fights for fourth. Gia laughed.
"Haha, Brother Wei told you!" Lev looked proud, "This was my idea! It was Larry Bird's idea at first, but here is my idea!"
"You big-nosed bastard, there's a kind!"
Seeing that the boys mingled with Gia and ignored them, Lily and Trist, Connie and a few other girls were angry, and these nerds had the ability to never talk to them!
While they were laughing and talking, the film crew over there was also busy with preparations, and Ye Wei began to rehearse with fake cakes.
This shot has a dual role, one is funny, the other is catharsis, and the two form an explosive force. Because the audience loves the god of weddings and wants to teach Bourne and Kana a lesson, his kick will make them excited and applauded, so there is no room for error!
Ye Wei really felt some pressure, the most nervous scene since the director and actor's career!
The rehearsal was okay, it was about to come to the real thing, and he couldn't help but whisper to the assistant director: "Let everyone cheer up and don't make any mistakes." β
This is also the duty of the assistant director on the set: beat everyone up.
Jennifer Anderson, the old fritter, knows better than Ye Wei, and at the moment she looked stern, and shouted as she walked: "The whole world is in good spirit, this is a moment of success or death, don't mess up the slightest! Otherwise, we will all be in trouble, cheer up!"
The crew members suddenly all looked stern, and a depressing atmosphere permeated, and everyone was cautious in their hands.
Lev and these idlers have a feeling that they dare not gasp, for fear that they will blow over the cake if they take a breath.
However, sometimes they are afraid of something, when the four field staff want to move a wedding cake to the cake table in the performance area, just a few steps away, all of them have an accident! One of them slipped and fell, and the whole big cake smashed to the grass, and the whole set immediately burst into a "oh no" exclamation!
Looking at the rotten cake on the ground, the staff, the leading actors, and the idlers and miscellaneous people...... Everyone's eyes widened, as if the wedding situation in the movie was born.
The four porters' faces were pale, and it was not who fell, it was the second assistant director who helped, Darum, who was lying on the grass with his head raised, ready to withstand the fury of VIy's violent scolding, and he would never say anything back, because he deserved it......
If he was replaced, he would even expel the person who messed up from the set.
Everyone turned to look at Ye Wei, only to see him grinning strangely, not knowing what to think.
It seems that this time the stick hit the opposite, and it is really a lesson, and we can't put pressure on everyone anymore. Although Ye Wei was dripping blood in his heart, he was not angry, and laughed: "Haha, it's too funny, it's like the god of weddings kicked Darum!" But we have one more, guys, shoot some set footage first, then clean up, and then come back." β
The old fritters and college students were relieved, and Lev dared to breathe secretly.
Lily smiled at her friends, "It's okay, he's not Nero." β
Nearly 10 minutes later, after filming and cleaning up, the previous four carried the last cake! They were the most experienced people in the audience. And this time, the four of them are worthy of Ye Wei's trust, as FedEx said, the mission will be achieved!
The camera and lighting had already been set up, the assistant director began to clear the scene, everyone was in place, and the idle people gathered behind the camera.
In front of the camera, there are a group of actors standing around the big cake, men, women and children are all dressed in wedding dresses, with festive smiles on their faces, and they can't see the invisible wedding god next to them.
Because filming hasn't started yet, Lev and the others are still talking to each other: "Brother Wei's kick is a kick in the penalty shootout of the World Cup final." "Brother is so good at footwork, and there is no goalkeeper, it will definitely work!", "God willing. β......
Soon, there was silence in the stadium, and the penalty moment finally came!
Click, "anetbsp; Outside the camera, a pair of eyes are fixed, and each heart is hanging......
In front of the camera, everyone rejoiced, Bourne and Kana held a long plastic cake cutter together, smiled and stepped forward, to cut the big cake on the table.
"Hee-hee-ha-ha!" At the same time, Ye Wei in the depths of the scene jumped up, as if he was doing warm-up work, and suddenly shouted: "I wish you a happy wedding!"
Before he finished speaking, he ran over, and with less than a meter left, he suddenly supported the ground with his left foot, flew up with his right foot, and kicked towards the cake round table covered with a white tablecloth with exquisite lace patterns.
The actors pretended not to see it, and the numerous eyes off the camera glared!
The cake table was kicked up, and the huge three-tiered wedding cake flew to the ground!
"Oh my God!", "Oh no!!" both Byrne and Kana screamed in frenzy, and the surrounding family and guests were all terrified and instinctively stretched out their hands, but there was no one to save them, and the whole wedding cake fell on the grass......
Ye Wei maintained a side-kicking posture of holding one foot on the ground and one foot up, and his naked right ankle shook a few times.
"Cut!" As soon as Jennifer Anderson stopped, Gia couldn't help but laugh, and the others laughed and applauded, this shot is amazing, the audience will definitely laugh!
Jiya laughed with Lily and the others: "He actually exploded, there is no ng!" Lev said proudly for Ye Wei: "Anything that is done with feet, Brother Wei is not afraid." Bard nodded, "He has a golden right leg." Lily smiled brightly, too, "I promise, this isn't his best kick." β
The completion of this shot means that all the remastered shots are finished!
But we still have to see if the replay determines whether it is good-Take or NG, Ye Wei took the lead in coming to the monitor, watching the replay, Jennifer Anderson's smile suddenly froze, Sean Maurrell also appeared, and Gia also frowned......
Just when Ye Wei finished kicking and everyone screamed, the microphone ran in from above the frame, very obvious goof.
"Oh, please. "Oh my God. A low cry of chagrin arose, what was going on!
Several members of the recording crew looked ashamed, and the microphone operator, Dre Charrison, had a panicked apology on his face, "I'm sorry, my fault ......"
This is a coherent main shot, and the 5 or 6 seconds of the microphone breaking in are the most exciting, how can the editing be cut? If there is another one, the cake is gone, and the director has no intention of deliberately trying to goof here...... What to do?
At this time, even the oldest old fritters are in a nervous mood, in this case, it is normal for the director to be angry and thunderous, and Ang Lee, who is also a Chinese director and known for his good temper, was once so angry that he kicked the trash can around him because of a similar situation.
Because everyone has worked so hard and filmed very well, just because of one person's mistakes, they all messed up!
Ye Wei was still just a 16-year-old boy, and he was so angry that he wanted to beat Dre Charrison with the microphone boom, and everyone would not think there was a problem.
A storm is coming! They looked at the director's expressionless face, and couldn't help but feel creepy, if he yelled out, it wouldn't be so scary, and now he didn't speak, the more terrifying it was......
The idle people were also very nervous, Lily frowned and wanted to say something, but after all, she was not a professional, and she didn't know what to say, so she just said, "Can you erase it with special effects?"
"Yes. Jia Ya nodded and persuaded Ye Wei: "The cost of doing special effects for this shot is obviously less than shooting another one, director, do special effects, right?" Jennifer Anderson and several people also agreed, this is a good way.
But Ye Wei still didn't speak, as if he was completely burned by anger, and seemed to be thinking about something......
"No, neither. β
Everyone was stunned, what did he mean?
