Chapter 55 Shooting (Tenth
We're finally going to meet, my stupid brother...
"Ahem..."
Xu Hui coughed, Liu Yifei, who had been 'continuously' studying the script, looked up and then quickly lowered his head.
She decided to ignore him for the time being!
This is Liu Xiaoli's experience of teaching her husband. "When treating men, you must hold him and never be successful!"
Well, listen to your mom, don't let her get hurt...
Unfortunately, she probably forgot that she was no longer familiar with Xu Hui. She saliva, 54, and she had been playing with her face confused several times!
Regarding the indifferent fairy sister, Xu Hui said that she was so cute and wanted to say...
However, he has not had the opportunity to take action yet. The director always greets a group of creators in the crew when he comes.
Most of the starring actors in "The Wasteland" are not very famous actors.
Although American dramas have made great progress in recent years, the popularity of TV drama actors is there. After all, not every American drama can become "Friends"...
Besides, the investment is just that little, and it is impossible to find a particularly well-known actor.
In addition to Daniel Wu and Liu Yifei, the person who plays Quinn is Malton Sox, a New Zealand actor who has been in Hollywood for more than ten years. His biggest role is Charles Kingsley, who plays the supporting role of "Alice in Wonderland";
Sarah Berg, an Irish actor, is a very famous TV actress. He once played Mary Tudor in "The Tudor".
Irish actors account for a large proportion of the North American entertainment industry, just like the main players in the Hong Kong circle, and there are many Irish actors, including directors and producers, which is a racial advantage.
The leading actress of "Brooklyn", Saoirse Ronan, is a girl in 1994. She has been nominated for Best Actress for two consecutive times. In addition to acting, her main role is racial talent and Irish descendants...
Aramis Knight, who is the person Wu Yan’s group has always wanted to protect...
After simply saying hello to several leading actors, Xu Hui called for the screenwriter and the deputy director, and the three of them started the first round of discussions on the crew.
Entering the working mode, Xu Hui restrained his funny emotions during this period and began to take it seriously.
The next day, he led Emily to the location one by one, including the castle that was filmed.
In fact, the crew started to build a scene two months ago.
Although the selling point of this drama is action scenes, necessary real-life shooting shots are still indispensable.
By mid-March, most of the supporting roles and supporting roles were recruited. Except for the male lead, the widow of the beauty is Asian, most of the others are white and black.
Actors will have regulations that the proportion of black people in each work cannot be less than 15%...
This is a hard and rigid rule.
By this time, the preliminary preparations have been basically completed and filming can be started at any time!
...
The first thing that started shooting was to control the photographers to shoot a large number of real scenes.
In this way, you can quickly understand the photographers' standards and habits of the entire crew, and the fastest running-in crew.
This is not a movie. The shooting of American dramas is not much different from that of domestic TV dramas. The crew is divided into three parts and is responsible for filming different branch content.
This is not the same photography style in the world, especially for these photographers who have worked with Xu Hui for the first time, it takes a certain amount of time and scheduling to understand Xu Hui’s requirements.
Xu Hui’s fame is here. Although "The Wasteland" is his first American drama, it is only beneficial to be able to cooperate with him and establish close contact!
The week before, basically the main task of every day was Xu Hui communicating with the photographers. By flipping through the daily shooting logs, each photographer gradually understood the style required by Xu Hui.
This is very important, otherwise, the entire inconsistent thing shot by each photographer will make the series coordinate.
In addition to real-life shooting, we occasionally shoot some simple plots of supporting roles.
For example, the scene where Wu Yan team appeared.
For Sunny, played by Wu Yan’s group, Xu Hui only has one request, cool!
The coolness of entering into the new selves!
Just like Neo of The Matrix.
The original red coat was a bit too much, so it was changed to a black windbreaker.
After two weeks of adjustment, the crew finally got into the regular business and Xu Hui started filming.
...
The fairy sister plays the role of the beautiful widow who will appear for half an hour in every episode, and is one of the leading actors.
So, she needs to stay on the crew every day.
Very lonely.
Few people in the crew took the initiative to talk to her, and even the little girl who played her daughter only occasionally talked to her.
Nonsense, everyone knows that this girl is the director's forbidden body, who dares to tease her?
She originally thought Xu Hui could not help but communicate with her, but in the past half month, Xu Hui was like an indifferent emperor. Except for work, she rarely took the initiative to chat with her.
It seems that work has become his only one!
I deserve to be a single dog!
Paohui has no choice but to say, after all, it is the first time filming in the United States, so I’m so unaccustomed to it!
The working conditions of these staff members are speechless. Every time Xu Hui feels that he just took some pictures, he is packing up and preparing to get off work... He not only needs 8 hours of working hours, but also weekends. If you want to get someone to work, you have to pay more!
Act as a trade union system!
It’s so annoying. If it were in the country, Xu Hui would probably be able to get the crew running in one week!
The crew rhythm was a little bit unfathomable to Xu Hui's original plan, which made him a little anxious and he had no time to consider Sister Shenxian at all.
Also, Xu Hui also has requirements for the crew's costumes and styles, and no modern technology can appear.
This is a world of wasteland, and even fighting can only use cold weapons.
The opening 1vs13 shot is mainly shot by Yuan Kui, and Xu Hui only has one requirement, which must be vicious enough and fatal.
...
Wu Yan's group and Aramis Knight were in the audition,
When their audition was over, Xu Hui called them aside.
"Alamis, the role you are going to play is a very young boy. You don't need to work too hard, just be simple."
Aramis is a very talented actor with good comprehension, which is the main reason why Xu Hui uses him.
"Danzu, Sonny is so cruel that he has a righteous side, you have to grasp it yourself."
"I have researched it. In fact, the script I got was only season 1, but I think Sonny should be a very complicated character. He yearns for freedom and desires for the Pure Land, but he has to kill people according to the lord's request..."
Wu Yan's group has a deep study of scripts.
Even more attentive than Xu Hui, as a director, is that this is his first step into North America, and of course he doesn't want to mess it up.
Chapter completed!
