Chapter 315

It provides you with wonderful novels to read.

Taking a temporary break from filming, Murphy called key members of the production team, including Seth Logan, Jonah hill, Paul Wilson, karafis, Philip Raschel and Helena espora, as well as James Franco and Charlize Theron, to the center of the set to discuss how to redesign the scene.

"Nick and Amy meet again, and then just sneer at each other and go back to the house. It's so peaceful."

Standing in the middle of everyone, Murphy said as she gesticulated, "I want this scene to be more powerful and impressive. The meeting of the leading actor and heroine is not only a reunion, but also a play played by Amy to the media, a play that shows her deep feelings for Nick Dunn and the family."

The original design of the scene is really too flat.

Murphy looked around. "Let's see if there's a better idea."

When he finds a problem, he may not be able to solve it immediately. At this time, collective wisdom is far more effective than one person's meditation.

"Can you do that?" Jonah hill has always been an activist. He was the first to say, "Amy and Nick Dunn have a deep kiss. The camera is 360 degrees around"

"no" Seth Logan shook his head. "This is not a romantic love movie. 360 degrees is not suitable for shooting."

Jonah Hill scratched his head, thought again, and said, "well, it's not so good."

"The motion lens doesn't meet the shooting requirements." Murphy also vetoed the proposal. "It's more suitable for love comedies than for feature films."

The set fell into silence for the time being, and no good idea came up in a short time.

"Murphy, do you think so?" James Franco suddenly said, "the reunion of Nick and Amy needs to have impact. Amy wants to convey the signal she wants to convey to the media and express the deep feelings between her and Nick. Can she use a classic bridge?"

"Go on." Murphy said.

Everyone looked at James Franco and knew him. Jonah hill and Seth Logan knew that this guy had some bad ideas.

"You've seen the classic poster of gone with the wind"

all the old people in this field were present. Which one did James Franco say? He nodded one after another. James Franco went up to Charlize Theron and continued, "after Amy appeared at the scene, she came up to me and fell into my arms. Then we put on the poster of gone with the wind With that, James Franco made a gesture, "I want her to fall down. After that, she'll fall back. Then I'll hold her and give the media an unforgettable moment."

Charlize Theron held his chin and said, "I think it's very good."

"I think this picture will be the best photo for people magazine in the next 15 years," said James Franco, beaming with approval after seeing the Oscar

The hero and heroine look at Murphy at the same time, only he has the final decision.

After only ten seconds of thinking, Murphy nodded and said, "OK, that's it. Let's try it first."

Everyone around him scattered, and he stayed to discuss with James Franco and Charlize Theron what to do.

Ten minutes later, the crew had a rehearsal. When Charlize Theron tilted and James Franco held her, Murphy finally found the feeling she wanted. However, the ordinary parallel shooting on the ground could not achieve the best effect of the lens.

He brought in the director of photography, Philip Raschel.

"Philly." Murphy said directly, "get the boom ready and hang a 21mm lens under the boom."

It takes a lot of time to prepare the boom, choose the right shooting angle, and take a test shot, but it's all worth it.

After the shooting officially started, Charlize Theron fell back, the crowd was excited, and then the camera gave her and James Franco a high angle close-up in the sky, which was perfect.

After filming, when Murphy shows Jonah hill and Seth Logan the picture, they act like what's going on in this shot

it's an intoxicating moment, because they finally find out how schizophrenic the third paragraph of the film is, and it's also a moment of sudden realization. When Murphy shows this segment to other people, they will be interested in it immediately Realize what effect Murphy wants in the end.

One of the most difficult scenes was solved. The location shooting of the crew in the small town became smooth. Although Murphy's voice amplified through the loudspeaker would be heard from time to time on the street, the shooting was carried out as planned.

It has to be said that James Franco has made great progress in recent years. He is like a tube of endless toothpaste. When he thinks he has reached the limit and will not produce anything again, Murphy will exert himself again, and then he will spit out a large part.

This geek's acting is no worse than any actor of Oscar level.

As for Charlize Theron, she won the Best Actress Oscar before. Makeup and image change really played a very important role, but her acting skills have been separated from the stage of vase. This extremely beautiful role, if not well controlled, will definitely be played as a vase. She didn't give Murphy any feeling of vase in the shooting, which makes her an elegant and crazy character Through the quality of the abdominal black female deduction incisively and vividly.Even if the two stars do not play well in some places, Murphy can give enough guidance.

After shooting so many films, as a director, he has accumulated a lot of practical experience. The specific performances he used to teach the actors are certainly unqualified, but it is not difficult to guide the actors to perform the state they need.

Of course, Murphy also knows that he is not the king of sunglasses. He knows that the director's influence on the live performance is relatively limited. More things, as early as the rehearsal in the early preparation, he communicated with James Franco and Charlize Theron.

His guidance is mainly based on two aspects: the actor's performance deviates from the effect he wants, and the scene needs to be redesigned just like a bloody reunion.

Most of the time, the director's on-site guidance must give way to inspiration.

At the scene, Murphy is more good tips, like a team coach as flexible.

After rehearsal and a lot of shooting, now the crew has adjusted to the best state, not everyone is the king of sunglasses. After three to five repetitions, the actors' attention will start to be distracted, and Murphy will try to enter the new content shooting before the actors feel tired.

The full rehearsal in the early stage saved the crew a lot of trouble at this time.

The improvisation of the shooting scene has a strong subjective color, and the improvisation content belongs to the part of the performance, which can instantly make the actors charming. Looking at the lighting effects, props and photographic equipment, Murphy needs to find beautiful inspiration from the actors.

Besides shooting, Murphy also pays attention to let the crew create personal space for James Franco, Charlize Theron and other actors.

A good director can always consider how to strive for personal space for the actors as much as possible. That is a box. The actors lock themselves up to complete the molding and enhance their faith.

It is very necessary to ensure that the actors are not disturbed during the shooting interval or when the actors encounter the "character wall".

In addition to the cast, Murphy also limits the scope of the crew's activities.

The moving lighting equipment, the chaos and noise of the transition will affect the attention of the actors. There are always many idle staff, actors' assistants or agents at the scene. Once there is a gap in the shooting, these people come up to gossip. The actors are coerced into unnecessary consumption, and they neither get rest and relaxation, nor keep their focus on the role Note.

At this time, Murphy's shouts will reverberate everywhere. Usually, not everyone can understand this kind of behavior, but he does need to build a box for the actor. Whether he can get in or not is his own business, but the crew needs to put the box there.

On the other hand, Murphy also needs to keep the actors in good shape. Since the shooting, James Franco and Charlize Theron's state has been constantly improving, and their emotions fully meet the requirements of the role. He must let them continue this kind of emotion.

In this respect, the first is to rely on the actors themselves, and the second is related to the director's shooting plan.

In the rush to play, many drama groups will focus on shooting a certain role, thus destroying the continuity of the actors' emotions. Crying in one scene and laughing in the next, extreme emotional changes are normal in the shooting, but few actors can successfully perform the two emotions in a short time.

Even the actors of Oscar winner level are ordinary human beings, not emotional expression machines.

Murphy will only break the continuity of actors in a play unless he has to.

It doesn't matter to shoot a movie in such a short time as death watch. Actors don't need to perform with explosive force. However, different lovers disappear, and a little bit of difference in actors' performance may affect the effect expressed in the whole shot.

In actual shooting, even if it slows down the overall progress, Murphy will try to take care of the shooting sequence between related scenes. If this kind of shooting that destroys the continuity of emotion is unavoidable, for example, he needs to focus on shooting all the single shots of a character in a certain room, and then turn the scene, he will try his best to let the actor get about 10 minutes of personal time between each scene .

Throughout January 2005, the cast stayed in the small town of Orange County, and the residents of the town cooperated with each other and signed Paul Wilson's agreement one after another, which means that their images can appear in the future films at will, which also saves a lot of money for the cast to hire extras.

With the development of filming, more and more actors joined the cast, and Amanda Seyfried, who plays Nick Dunn's student lover, also came to the town. It's not finished yet. For mobile phone users, please browse. Read for better reading experience.
