Chapter 1082

After a while, all the members of gravity's crew have arrived at Surrey photography base and are ready to shoot.

However, the staff were not in a hurry to turn on the machine immediately. Before it was officially put into work, the props group, the photography group, the lighting group, the visual effects group and the director group all gathered together, meeting day and night, calculating round by round, and preparing for the film in full swing.

It's not because of the unexpected dehydration of Langley, but because Alfonso Caron put forward a grand opening of the film, ready to shoot an unprecedented 18 minute space shot:

In a continuous long shot, panorama, close-up, action scenes and so on are successively displayed, and various plots are presented in a single shot at the same time. It is even necessary to combine zero gravity with long shot to integrate the story of space with special effects of technology; And, flawless, seamless, immersive to show the vastness and magnificence of the universe.

There is no doubt that this is one of the most difficult scenes in the whole film, and even one of the most difficult scenes in the whole film history. Up to now, no one has ever done it - as a reference, even in 2017, it is still a "Comer". No one can perfectly copy such a feat, showing the reality and shock of space.

This is the final summary exhibition of Alfonso and the whole technical team after five years of repeated research, research, thinking, breakthrough, experiment and summary.

As a matter of fact, according to the experience of the last life, "gravity" has won the admiration of the whole industry, including countless technology magnates and industry bigwigs, after truly shooting and producing the opening 18 minute long shot, which has established Alfonso's position in the Hollywood industry at one stroke.

The difficulty of such a long lens can be seen.

Now, the main staff of the crew are constantly rehearsing and demonstrating. In the case of one mirror to the end, we must ensure that all links are perfect.

In the story, the opening plot is a task of repairing the space station. Ryan, Alex and another astronaut work together in space to check the communication system of the space station. In the process of maintenance, a Russian missile hit an abandoned satellite, causing a chain effect of debris, leading to three staff members in deep crisis.

In the actual shooting, another astronaut will not appear on the camera, complete the production with computer special effects, and then dub later to complete all the performances of the role. In other words, the whole shooting work is on the shoulders of lenley and Rooney.

In the whole shooting work, every link is very important. If any small detail goes wrong, they have to overturn it. Even if the actor says a wrong line or misses a beat, all shooting will fail.

What's more, it's an 18 minute long shot. In order to prepare for the shooting, they need to spend several months calculating and arranging; After they actually put in the work, it will take them a few days or even weeks to complete the shooting.

That is to say, the actors must be involved in the preparation process and really become part of the long shot.

However, in the absence of lenley and Rooney, the "gravity" crew started the final stage of preparation steadily. It doesn't seem to be a problem for the crew.

What's more exaggerated is that when lanli and Rooney both appeared at the meeting scene of the studio, all the discussions stopped, and people cast a look of amazement and surprise, just like seeing a monster, which makes people strongly doubt whether they will run away in the next second.

"... only two tracks are absolutely not enough. We need to build at least three more tracks. No, four tracks. The whole position of the camera is too complicated. The scene scheduling must have a more grand perspective. It's not enough now."

Emmanuel lubezki, who is speaking, shakes his head, frowns slightly and expresses his dissatisfaction and opinions firmly. As a photographer, he is the eye of the director and turns all the ideas in the director's mind into film pictures. There is no doubt about the importance of his work.

At this time, he was so attentive that his reaction was slow for several times. After his views were published, he noticed that no one had responded. Then he slowly turned his head along everyone's line of sight and saw blue Li and Rooney standing behind.

"Damn it

Emmanuel, reflexively abusing in Spanish rather than English, was more of a subconscious instinct, and his eyes widened in amazement.

He frowned, looked at Alfonso and asked in Spanish, "what's the matter? Why did he come here? You haven't mentioned it before! Is he OK? Are you sure he's ok? Is there really no problem? "

The special joy and enthusiasm of Spanish burst out ceaselessly, showing Emmanuel's inner manic and shock incisively and vividly.

"I'm sure he's OK. You see, you can still see shadows on the ground. "

It's not Alfonso who answers aloud, but lanli. Emmanuel's back muscles suddenly stiffen because of his proficiency in Spanish. But the next moment, Alfonso can't help laughing - shadow, which is also one of the criteria for westerners to judge ghosts. As for the rest of the staff, in Spanish, they are at a loss.

In the laughter, Emmanuel also responded. Looking at Alfonso's smile, he closed his eyes and muttered a few words. Obviously, he completely forgot that Langley's foreign language ability has long been famous. In "speed and passion 5", Langley showed a few simple words of Spanish.

After scratching his head, Emmanuel turned around, stood up and stretched out his right hand to lenley. "I'm sorry, I thought you still didn't recover. So I didn't expect your visit. " This time, he spoke English with a less accented accent than he thought, and he was very fluent.

As if aware of Langley's look, Emmanuel took the initiative to explain, "as a photographer, we have a deep understanding of the director's ideas, which is the basis of our work. So I have to learn how to communicate with the director. " Indirectly explained their English level.

Although Langley didn't say a word, he interpreted more meaning from one look. A face to face, Emmanuel showed his keen and profound as a photographer; Of course, as a technical otaku, he is straightforward and straightforward, without the politeness of social occasions, straightforward and generous.

"Don't worry, I'm not in any serious condition. When the dreamer wakes up, the prince still falls in love with her, doesn't he Lan Li also reciprocated by mentioning his health in English, but in some ways

"Ha ha. Ha ha

Rooney was the first to laugh, and then the others all burst into laughter. The scene was so lively that the atmosphere became more relaxed.

After waking up, lanli realized that after dehydration, he had been sleeping for 36 hours. If it wasn't for the doctor's repeated emphasis that lanli's health was ok, it was just mental and physical fatigue, and he entered deep sleep. Otherwise, Nathan and Roy were ready to escort lanli to the hospital.

Thirty six hours, even for lanli, who always loved to sleep, was incredible. At the same time, it also explained a series of strange actions after he woke up. All the question marks were answered——

Since leaving New York's Kennedy International Airport, Langley hasn't eaten for nearly 70 hours. Naturally, he can't eat solid food immediately and needs to get his stomach back in shape.

After experiencing the familiar and strange liquid food, there are many sparks in the conversation between lanli and Rooney. They need to further communicate with the director, and further improve the role according to the idea of the script and the director's ideas; So, they came to the studio, inadvertently interrupted the meeting, and then the above scene appeared.

For any staff member, the blue gift looks like... A vampire.

First, he stayed in the light box for nearly eleven hours; Then relying on their own efforts to break free from the shackles, left the light box; And then fell into a long period of sleep, signs of life remain stable, but never wake up.

Is there any better explanation than a vampire?

Facing Emmanuel, who is still in shock, Langley doesn't like to continue to focus on himself. They still have more work to complete, and he can't wait to be a member of the team. So he takes the initiative to change the topic, "what were you discussing just now? A long shot at the beginning of the movie? "

Lanli and Rooney came forward, moved a chair, and joined the circle, ready to participate in the discussion.

But Alfonso is still a little worried. After all, lanli has just woken up, just adjusted for a few hours, and now he is working. It doesn't seem like a good idea. "Lanli, are you sure?"

Langley shook his head solemnly. "No, I'm not sure." Clapping, instant Alfonso's expression solidified in the mouth, "but I'm sure that if I continue to lie in bed, I may really become a vampire."

Poof.

Laughter is still not able to hold back, all of them bow their heads, as if they speak ill of others behind their backs, and they are suddenly exposed by the person concerned. They are ashamed and ridiculous, and feel very wonderful.

Lanli then showed a big smile and nodded to Alfonso. Without further explanation, he went back to the theme directly. "With the long opening shot, Rooney and I can't be absent. Our standing, walking and performance are very important, right? I don't want to miss this historic moment. "
