Hollywood Drawing - Chapter 616

Popular recommendation:

The black Mercedes-Benz commercial vehicle parked in the ancient winery area of ​​Toronto. Under the leadership of Kevin Feige, Wayne and his party entered the shooting scene surrounded by people in a low-key manner.

If you’ve seen the X-Men, you’ll notice that the opening scene of the movie is a Polish concentration camp in 1944. This is where Magneto’s parents were killed, and it is also here that Magneto first showed his superpowers.

In fact, the opening scene of the movie was filmed in the old winery district of Toronto. In the last century, it was Toronto’s most prestigious brewery, known for brewing full-bodied, frothy beers.

Then it was developed by a group of “artist” enthusiasts. The old factory area was divided into several areas by several small streets, and the brewing equipment inside has always been preserved. After the transformation of these “artists”, many entertainment venues have been added here, and it has become a resort for them to engage in artistic creation.

Although it is now closed by the crew for framing and shooting, the so-called artistic traces on the wall are still there. Wayne observes it back and forth from time to time. As soon as he enters this place, he immediately thinks of “798” deep in his memory.

In fact, the entire “X-Men” filming work revolves around Canada, or Toronto. For example, the mutant school in the film was actually shot in an old castle, and it is one of the most famous attractions in Toronto, Casa Loma Castle.

The mutant school was shot in the castle, and the outside was transferred to Owassa, a small town east of Toronto. The crew rented the former mansion of Samuel McLaughlin, the founder of First Motors in Canada. This mansion can be regarded as A historic site.

For a long time, Hollywood’s framing work has been full of imaginative and unthinkable. Of course, Hollywood’s film crew is so free and unrestrained, it has nothing to do with film art, it is purely for the convenience of shooting and the low cost of renting venues.

“Mike, pay attention to the output of the rain!”

“no problem”

“Benjamin, pay attention to the movement of the extras! I don’t want to see low-level mistakes again!”

“Don’t worry, I promise it won’t happen again.”

“…”

On the set, Brian Singer’s shouts came out through the loudspeaker, constantly confirming the preparations of various departments of the crew before the official start of shooting.

Wayne and others did not disturb the filming, crowded among the onlookers, and watched the upcoming set together. Obviously, this scene is the opening scene of the whole film, and the background is the Polish concentration camp in 1944 under heavy rain.

Soon, as all departments were ready, the studio gradually became quiet. With the sound of the board in the hand of the field reporter, the shooting officially began.

The shooting scene is far more chaotic than the audience sees on the big screen. Under the command of the assistant director, a large group of actors walks in a manner that they practice many times, under the artificial rain falling from the sky, expressionlessly from several stations. Walk slowly in front of the camera.

The scene was filled with mud and water, but it was eerily quiet. Except for the footsteps of people, there was no other sound. In fact, this scene on the big screen is full of shouting, dog barking and all kinds of roars, but it is completely whimsical to do live radio work in this environment, and all background sounds depend on post-production. work to add.

“cut!”

“No problem with this one, Benjamin, go and talk to that kid again. After the filming starts, let him lie down in the muddy water and don’t move!”

As Bryan Singer’s voice sounded, the hustle and bustle immediately resumed on the set. The staff of the props team and the set team began to quickly arrange the shooting scene, the makeup artist began to chase after the actors to touch up the makeup, and everyone was busy. respective work.

“Let’s go.”

Seeing the end of the shooting, Kevin Feige whispered: “It seems that the next set of shots will not continue until after lunch.”

Wayne nodded slightly and walked directly to the director’s seat with a few people. Since entering the filming set, he has been silently observing the operation of the crew. Whether it is before or now, at least he has not picked out too many problems.

Especially this time, you must know that such a shooting scene with dozens or hundreds of people participating, and the background is still bad weather, is actually not easy to shoot. Usually, such a shot requires dozens of continuous attempts, and even he has no good way. The harsh shooting environment, coupled with many participants, and the cooperation of multiple departments, it is difficult to ensure that there will be no problems in every link.

“You’ve come a long way.”

Standing behind the director’s monitor, Wayne shook hands with Bryan Singer, patted him on the shoulder, and praised: “Compared to when you first started filming, your control over the crew has improved a lot. ”

“Thank you, Mr. Greenberg.”

Brian Singer nodded politely with a trace of nervousness.

In fact, for most Hollywood directors, they need to exercise their working ability under huge pressure, especially for the deployment and control of large-scale production crews.

The same is true for the “X-Men” crew. After a period of time, Brian Singer is also making rapid progress. Compared with the immature when he first took over the crew, he is now used to working under pressure.

“Don’t worry about me, you continue with the work at hand.”

The two greeted politely, and Wayne waved his hand, took Nina and Sergey away from the director’s seat, found a corner, and silently watched the crew prepare for the next set of shots.

Due to the unknown number of water spray trucks scouring the site, it has completely turned into muddy water, which has really increased the difficulty of work for those bottom-level workers. Several main actors of “X-Men” gathered together, frequently cast their gazes to the corner where he was, and talked about something in a low voice from time to time.

“Haney.”

A crisp voice appeared behind him, and Wayne turned his head. Harry Berry, who was dressed in casual clothes, had a smile on his face. He didn’t care about the eyes of other people in the crew. He opened his hands and gave him a warm hug. “It’s been a long time since you came to see me, my dear.”

“Hmm, it looks like you’re in good shape.” Wayne recalled the feeling just now, shrugged slightly, and said with a smile, “Better than I thought, I heard that you were isolated by everyone?”

Hearing his sarcastic words, Halle Berry froze for a moment. This is a very smart woman, apparently not thinking about complaining to him secretly.

The woman’s eyes rolled, and she glanced at Kevin Feige, who was in the director’s seat. She knew something about her in the crew. It should be the producer who was in charge of the specific work, talking on the way to pick up Wayne. got up.

“I can handle it.”

The smile on Harry-Berry’s face did not change, and he looked at the man and said, “These are nothing to me, I know where I should focus my attention.”

“Very well, Harry, you’re more mature than I thought…”

At this time, the interaction between the two attracted a lot of attention, especially the main actors who have been staring at this side. They looked at each other for the first time when they saw Harry-Berry’s past. , saw the worry in each other’s eyes.

In particular, the three actresses could see the deep unease in each other’s expressions. No one knows whether the woman will spit bitterness to the first producer of the crew.

“You know you’re scared now?”

Hugh Jackman muttered in a low voice when he saw the performance of several people.

In fact, for him, there is no conflict at all with Harry Berry, but when the actors in the entire crew spontaneously hug each other and isolate each other, he can only choose to stand with most of them, and it is very important One of the reasons is that Storm Girl’s salary is much higher than that of the male protagonist.

“I heard that Harry Berry was officially with Wayne Greenberg.” Rebecca Romijn raised her arm and stabbed Farmette Jensen next to her, Nunu said: ” Say, will this b**h arrange us?”

“Don’t worry, Wayne Greenberg won’t bother with this shit.”

As an old fritter in the circle, Bruce Davidson shook his head slightly, and at the same time his voice caught everyone’s attention. “Do you think that for such a big man, there will be time to pay attention to this? Don’t be stupid.”

In fact, apart from isolating the woman, they did nothing at all, neither affecting the normal shooting work, nor causing the woman any harm. Of course, everyone knows that isolating the woman is an expression of dissatisfaction. maximum performance.

No one is stupid. If they really do something, I am afraid that even these actresses will not do it. No one wants to really play too much.

There are many rumors in the circle about Wayne’s lace news, but the most reliable one is the most credible one. UU reading www.uukanshu.com is that except for Naomi Watts, no woman can be in Greenberg The manor is resident, which has explained too many problems.

“Wow, what does that b**h want to do?”

Just as a few people were gurgling, Rebecca Romijn pursed her lips and said in a low voice, “Ha, if I guessed correctly, some people can’t wait to raise their tails and want to please their dady!”

Under the watchful eyes of countless crew members, Halle Berry snuggled in the man’s arms intimately, the smile on his face never disappeared, and after a while, he even whispered beside the man’s ear. After saying something, he held the man’s hand intimately and walked towards his makeup trailer.

Almost all the men had a smile of “So it is” on their faces. Even Benjamin, the assistant director of the film, leaned against the director’s monitor, winked at Brian Singer, and laughed in a low voice. Said: “Boss, do you want to make a bet, I bet that Storm Girl’s voice will pass through…”

“F**k! Shut up.”

Unexpectedly, Brian Singer frowned and directly interrupted the assistant director’s joke. “That’s not what we should care about, let’s organize the actors to practice their positions!”

The assistant director shrugged, turned and walked towards the waiting actors on the set. This kind of thing is not uncommon on Hollywood crews, at least they know how to go to the makeup trailer and start messing around, right?

Which of the old fritters in the circle has never been seen before, some actors and stars who “because of drama” have become emotional, and they can’t wait to meet frankly in the booth on the set. However, the enthusiasm of these people usually comes and goes very quickly, and many actors become strangers again on the day the crew is finished.
