In July, Baja California was stuffy and humid, mosquitoes were flying in the wild, and filming with makeup was very torturous.

Martin had been prepared and had bought multiple three-piece sets before he came.

On the side of the makeup trailer, Bruce slapped him in the face, and the big mosquito was crushed to pieces.

Martin approached him again, and there were basically no mosquitoes flying over to bite him: "Lao Bu, look at the smell on your body, mosquitoes bite you." ”

Bruce countered: "You pervert has stinky blood and flesh, and even mosquitoes don't want to bite." ”

Martin went back and took out the bag, took out the wind oil essence, flower water and cool oil set, and handed it to Lao Bu: "The first one is on the eyelids, the second one is half a bottle, and the third one is on the brothers, not only will the mosquitoes avoid you, but also let you fly to the sky." ”

"Are you sure?" Bruce unscrewed the wind oil essence, sniffed it, and felt that it was not quite right.

Martin wanted to see how it worked: "Also, you can use wind oil essence and cooling oil instead of Vaseline, next time you go to Kardashian and give it a try." ”

Bruce poured out a little and wiped it on the back of his hand, feeling cool and cool, and said, "Vanessa Shaw is a little interesting to you, can you try it first?" ”

"I've tried it countless times." Martin went to the gas station in front and prepared to shoot.

Bruce muttered a few words, smeared it with wind oil, sprayed it with flower water, and put the cool oil in his pocket, and when he returned to Los Angeles, he would find out if he tried it with gold.

Martin arrives on set to familiarize himself with Vanessa.

The two have rehearsed a few times, and the cooperation is not bad.

It's a shabby, old-fashioned gas station, a must-have scene in an American road horror movie.

Martin is very stylish in simple jeans, sneakers, and a T-shirt, plus neat short hair.

It is incompatible with a broken gas station.

Ajia came over: "The shape is very good, you don't belong here, so you are very resistant to this trip, but in order to take care of your wife's face, you have to force a smile." ”

Martin nodded: "Most of the time, I will tolerate my father-in-law, let him nag, like a good old man." ”

"Actually, you're not, you're a pervert!" Ajia directed a Hollywood film for the first time, and did a lot of things herself, shouting: "All departments are ready, and filming will start in two minutes." ”

With the slap board, filming officially began.

Martin went to refuel the RV as his father-in-law, Bob, came over to talk to him, and a small verbal altercation broke out, more of a stubborn old southern man accusing his son-in-law of not cooperating.

At the same time, the child cries, the dog barks, and the chickens fly and the dogs jump.

Ajia pursues perfection, and it took three shots in the first scene to shout through.

Originally, Martin was going to be filmed to see the child in the next scene, but the baby actor suddenly stinked and cried so much that he could only temporarily change the scene of the dog.

Beauty and the Beast have not yet adjusted their condition, and Ajia shouts cards over and over again, including Martin, and the actors involved in this scene can only toss together.

Children and animal actors are more of a headache than the crew actresses.

It is an uncontrollable factor.

Finally calmed the dog, and as soon as the shooting began, the beast didn't know what it had found, and suddenly rushed out of the door of the RV and barked wildly at a pile of rocks.

Daniel hurried over to reassure him, the beast still letting out a warning whimper.

Martin followed the crowd and looked over.

Bruce then sprang out and blocked Martin: "Be careful, there's a rattlesnake." ”

Sure enough, in the pile of rocks, an earthy yellow rattlesnake more than a meter long coiled its body, spit out the snake letter, and its tail kept hitting the ground.

Faced with this poisonous snake, Daniel dragged the beast back slowly.

Darlot, the head of security hired by Craven, was prepared, came over with a long iron tong, grabbed the rattlesnake's head and neck at once, and dragged it into the distance.

Ah Jia remembered and asked, "What about the crew doctor?" ”

"Here." Someone raised their hand.

Ajia asked, "Is the viper serum prepared?" ”

The doctor has followed many crews and is well prepared: "For the crew who came to Mexico to film, all kinds of common poisonous snake serums are necessary. ”

Shooting quickly returned to normal.

I don't know if it's the relationship between the rattlesnake being cleaned up, but in the later filming, the baby actors stopped making trouble, the beauty and the beast gradually entered the state, and the crew began to operate efficiently.

Most of the shots can pass by three or four.

The scene at the gas station was filmed for three days in a row, and the crew moved to a nearby scenic spot for filming.

It is a valley with bare bedrock that retains its pristine wind-eroded landforms, with rugged roads and jagged rocky and sand mounds that look particularly desolate.

There is also a natural stone pit nearby that can be used as a cemetery for deformed people to abandon items such as cars.

Local Mexican officials were stationed on the set to supervise the crew not to damage the environment and to take away all garbage after filming.

As for the passing gangsters who casually set fire to abandoned cars, he turned a blind eye.

Hollywood crews talk about rules, gang members don't have to talk about rules, and if officials provoke traffickers, they will soon be dead on the streets.

The crew wore the logo of the United States on every car, and as long as the local security company paid the security premium, the traffickers rarely harassed the Hollywood crew.

During the break, a few people made small talk, and Craven mentioned one thing: "I heard that a politician in Mexico who is very tough on traffickers is running for election, and their policy may change." ”

"It's useless, as long as Mexico and the United States are next to each other, the problem can't be solved," Martin said. ”

Bruce knows more: "The American market is too big, the profits are too huge, everyone is jealous, not only gang forces, but also more forces, such as the American official." ”

Ajia asked, "Can't the Mexican authorities solve the traffickers?" ”

Craven threw a can of beer: "Wait, that one is on stage and may declare war on the peddlers." ”

Martin had a vague impression that the Mexican authorities had lost the war for traffickers.

Bruce answered: "It's not terrible to be a lone trafficker, they have the CIA, the DEA, or some other force in Washington behind them, and the Mexican authorities can't handle it." ”

Martin asked, "I've heard that the CIA is the biggest trafficker in Latin America?" ”

Craven laughed: "Your news is too backward, this is all a well-known thing, and there are definitely a lot of big people in Washington who are involved in it." ”

"I've heard from a couple of retired friends that Washington is going to soon be the biggest trafficker in Central Asia," Bruce said. ”

An idea popped up for Ajia: "It's okay to make a horror film set in the CIA and tell how they tortured and tortured their opponents?" ”

Craven said: "As long as you don't hack the IRS, anything else, it doesn't matter, the CIA doesn't care." ”

The prop master passed by, holding a couple of pink kettles in his hands.

Ajia was curious: "I heard that you made this thing, Martin, what did you think at the time?" ”

Martin pointed to the words on the kettle and said seriously: "I think that no matter whose life you are, you can make your own decisions!" ”

The others nodded in agreement.

Ajia glanced at her watch: "It's about time, ready to shoot." ”

Martin got up and went to the makeup artist.

When Aka returned to the set, the three actresses were already sitting at a small table in front of the RV, each with a kettle in front of them.

At the beginning of the shooting, they picked up the pink kettle and drank water.

In the next scene, a perverted deformed person invades the RV, and Vanessa uses a pink kettle to beat the perverted men, smashing a perverted man into a pig's head.

Eventually, she was shot and killed by a perverted man.

The shooting soon moved to the car cemetery.

In front of the slide rails laid by the camera, Martin looks in amazement at dozens of rusted scrap cars, opens the nearest door, and pulls out a teddy bear toy covered in dirt.

On the other side, the actor who has evolved into a murderer is ready to go on the stage, and then there is a fight scene with Martin.

Bruce arrives at the props group and takes a closer look at the props.

The prop master asked, "Don't worry about me?" ”

Bruce, who wasn't Martin, didn't care about these words, and said, "The crew is all using real guns, and I have to keep my employer safe." ”

The prop master knew that Martin was one of the three most powerful people in the crew, and took the initiative to take the gun and let Bruce check them one by one.

Bruce opens the revolver's nest to make sure there are no bullets in it, and asks, "Why don't you use a prop gun?" ”

"In the U.S. and Mexico, real guns are easier to get and less expensive than props," the prop master said. ”

Bruce couldn't help but say, "Fake guns are harder to get than real guns, and we live in shit." ”

The prop master shrugged: "It's good to get used to it." ”

The character actor came over at this time to receive weapons, a revolver, and a prop knife.

Bruce watched as the prop master handed over the weapons he had inspected to the spec actors, and followed the specs to the car graveyard.

The action scenes started filming, and the shots were broken down one by one, and the shooting was extremely fragmented.

Often an action is a shot.

In this scene, the male protagonist was attacked by a deformed person in the car cemetery, was knocked into a pit, and killed the deformed person after being injured.

Those scenes that are dangerous when they roll to the bottom of the pit are naturally stunt doubles for filming.

There are also shots of the actor smashing on the glass of the abandoned car, all using stand-ins.

There are even some difficult action scenes, unless he makes an appearance, Martin also requires the use of stunt doubles.

Throw all the weight-bearing parts to others.

However, Martin is very good at being a person, and when he returned to the hotel where he stayed in the evening, he took the initiative to invite a few stunt doubles for a drink.

He also asked Bruce to buy some small gifts to give when the stuntmen finished their work and left the crew.

The salary is high, like Reeves sending motorcycles, and Martin's salary is limited.

After more than half a month of field shooting, the crew ended all the location scenes and moved back to the studio area near the hotel for filming.

Also a factory turned studio, the set designer built a labyrinth of caves and valley towns for the final showdown between the male protagonist and the deformed man.

The rest of the crew returned to the United States after completing their roles, leaving only Martin and a group of stuntmen filming action scenes.

At the same time, the crew of "Summer of Jeans" next door also came to Cabo San Lucas.

The two crews are in stark contrast, one is almost exclusively men, and the other is full of young and beautiful actresses.

Today's two changes, in the process of accumulating.
