Under the operation of CAA and bill rosis, Gail gado quickly opened her own personal blog, and uploaded some fitness photos from time to time to tell everyone that she was working hard for the role of wonder woman.
In fact, as Gail gado said, in addition to fitness, she also carries out a lot of training in fighting, boxing, fencing, Brazilian jujitsu and other events. After all, the wonder woman is not Superman. Although fighting is basically straightforward to show strength and speed, the characteristics of the goddess of war also determine the need for certain skills.
For Gail gado and Chris Evans, the most urgent task is fitness and training.
After the final draft of the script and the split shot Sketchpad are determined, the special effects production of "body of steel" has started before shooting. In order to cope with the time-consuming and labor-consuming special effects production, Murphy will also start shooting the action scenes after completing several promotional shots.
Different from the previous shooting, this film will use more than 2500 special effects shots. Murphy plans to build a green screen in the studio to complete all the shooting involving special effects shots. As for the final battle of big boss, he also found the Russian actor who played ganglish at the beginning to shoot and produce in the way of motion capture.
During the long preparation period, in addition to all kinds of busy work, Murphy will also make people jump out from time to time to disclose some information, so as to maintain the topic of "body of steel".
For example, in mid October, Chris Evans spat on the media in an interview, "I exercise two hours a day, which is cruel. I usually like to exercise, but this time it's different. I feel like I'm going to throw up. I think I hate that coach, I hate this movie, and I want to go home and sleep for a week. It's really cold-blooded and merciless. I have a fast metabolism, and I'll lose weight, so as soon as I eat it, I'll get fat again. "
He added, "it's disgusting to practice, it's disgusting to eat. I can't even look at fried chicken. I'm going to swell up in practice, but at the same time I have to consume protein. It's a real dilemma."
Although it's for publicity, it's no exaggeration. Chris Evans has made great efforts to be competent for the role of Superman.
Accordingly, Gail gado, who plays wonder woman, will not be easier than him.
She has a very high metabolism, which makes it difficult for her to maintain her weight. She has to increase her food intake, especially high protein. She trains for about two hours each time. She only focuses on two muscle groups. By increasing the amount of exercise, using faster speed and from every possible angle, she constantly stimulates her muscles until she reaches her set fitness goal.
By early November, Gail gado had gained 15 pounds of muscle.
Two weeks later, Murphy led the crew to leave Los Angeles for the location of San Jose. After a long and busy preparation, the filming of "body of steel" officially began.
On an ordinary Monday morning, just after dawn, dozens of trailers and trucks drove to the outskirts of a small town. Under the command of Murphy, they began the intense preparation before shooting.
As a lot of work has been completed yesterday, now more is to set up lights and adjust the camera position.
While waiting for Philip Raschel to adjust the camera, Murphy asked Gail gado standing behind him, "is the reporter contacted by Warner brothers here?"
Gail gado nodded his head. "On the way. It'll be there in a minute. No more than five minutes."
Now she looks a little fuller and stronger than before, but not so thin. The increased muscles make her more symmetrical.
In addition to the guest role of wonder woman, Gail gado works more as an assistant producer. She has fully accepted Murphy's words and specially asked for internship leave from school to study in the cast.
Just as Murphy encountered many difficulties when he started, there is a big difference between learning and practice.
"Let Ghent coordinate with the press." Murphy carefully confessed, "I want to shoot the first, and then put reporters in to take pictures."
The crew's preparations are still in progress, Murphy continues to be busy, not far from the periphery, some reporters have got off the car.
Seeing the busy set ahead, herstein raised his camera to shoot, but a staff member stopped it.
"I'm sorry, sir." The staff is quite polite, "the crew will start shooting soon, there will be a unified media photo time."
In this regard, Hollywood has always had a tacit understanding with the media. Helstein did not insist and put down his finger on the shutter.
After waiting for a minute, his eyes suddenly tighten as he looks at the set. Chris Evans, dressed in a tight blue suit, appears in front of the camera, as if communicating with the director Murphy Stanton.
Almost at the moment of seeing Chris Evans, herstein realized that he could get the big news today!
The shooting of the crew is very simple, just two scenes of Superman walking. Soon after the shooting is finished, when the deputy director comes to inform us, all the reporters, including herstein, rush to the set like a swarm of bees. They can realize that there will be a series of arguments around the new Superman in the set.All the cameras were aimed at Chris Evans, who was still on the set, as if at the super-a stars in Hollywood.
Camera shutter sound, many reporters only photographed Superman dressed Chris Evans, regardless of other, rushed out of the set, rushed to their cars, took out the notebook, with the fastest speed to the pictures and typed out the text, to the Scriptwriter's side.
Nowadays, the timeliness of news is more important than before.
Just half an hour later, the most prominent position on the home page of IMDB was the latest report on body of steel.
"Superman's classic modeling has changed dramatically," body of steel "unveils explosive news
To the right of the title is a picture of Chris Evans' new Superman.
IMDB news: body of steel, which is being shot in the suburb of San Jose, California, recently exposed a group of set photos. Different from the previous irrelevant pictures, the protagonist of this outflow photo is superman. What's more shocking is that it reveals a very explosive news to us. The new version of Superman will bid farewell to the iconic plug-in red underwear
"No matter the official stills or the exposure photos, due to the dark light and long distance, we didn't find any significant difference between the new and old Superman costumes. However, today's close-up shows us the great secret. Superman's iconic red underpants are gone! We can't help but admire the courage of director Murphy Stanton for using such a different outfit from the classic cartoon
"In addition to the red underpants, we also found some other changes in Superman's shape. The clothing chose a similar scaly texture, which not only fits the body, but also highlights the actor Chris Evans's well-defined body. In addition, we also found a belt ring like decoration on Superman's waist. It is not clear whether it is for other purposes or just for clothing However, with such a subversive shape, the disappearance of curly hair on the forehead and the increase of the S-Mark on the chest, we can't help wondering whether this is the familiar Superman? "
The shape of Superman is not a change, it can be said that it is a drastic change.
There is no doubt that all these are for the publicity and marketing of "body of steel". Since the preparation entered the late stage, Murphy has no longer involved in the publicity and marketing, but left all the responsibilities to Warner Bros. and turned all his energy to the film shooting and production. Even the publicity related to shooting is also in line with Warner Bros.'s publicity plan.
After the news of the great changes in Superman's classic style came out, Warner Brothers also handed a survey data to Murphy. Most people are not averse to Superman's new style, and quite a number of Superman fans still have expectations.
There are also critics, which is inevitable.
Of course, more people are more interested in the plot of "body of steel". In the past five Superman movies, the story of Superman has been modeled. Even "superman returns" directed by Brian singer is just a new bottle of old wine. In addition to the use of new technology, that movie is not essentially different from Christopher Reeve's Superman series.
A superhero movie like this, as long as there are no big problems in logic and technology in a specific setting, even if there are some defects in the story, the audience will generally have a good evaluation.
"Is Superman back that bad?"
On the plane to Alaska, Gail gado looked at Murphy sitting next to him and asked, "do you think it's very bad, too?"
"It's worse than I thought." So Murphy shrugged his shoulders to avoid the mistakes I made
Gail gado looks at Murphy and doesn't quite understand what he's saying.
This is the closest person to him. Murphy doesn't hide his words. "In the movie superman returns, I can only say that a gay director is shooting his own" God of men ". Every shot is looking up and every shot is a delicate close-up. In addition to keeping up with the times in special effects, in fact, it's still a remake of the old version of Superman. Brian singer has completed a self satisfaction, but the Superman series is facing a more severe situation. "
In other words, in some ways, he would also like to thank Brian Singh. If it wasn't for the failure of Superman return, he would not have the super high treatment.
The plane landed in Juno, the capital of Alaska, and Murphy led the crew to the snowy plains in the far north, ready to shoot the part of wonder woman vs Superman. (to be continued). )
