Emma Thomas knows about Christopher Nolan. She knows that after changing the shooting site, all of Christopher's preparations need to be reversed, just like inception; In order to capture different textures of different planets, interstellar crossing will need to spend more time preparing.
So Emma just announced that the crew would have a week off. This is not only true when Albert came to Iceland, but also when Iceland returned to Los Angeles - the shooting in the studio in Los Angeles also involves the combination of actual scenes and computer special effects, and the preparation may take longer.
Although lanli, Annie, Matt and other actors all arrived in Iceland ahead of time for preparation, they didn't have any shooting tasks in the first week and could relax and adjust freely. Test lighting and shooting composition and so on, even if the use of doubles is no problem.
That's why Langley arranged a tour around the island.
However, in order to make up for his absence from the preparatory work of the crew, Langli went to the stage in person and cooperated with Christopher to complete the shooting of the test picture.
Far away, it seems very simple. It's just a panoramic capture. But in order to adjust the lighting, especially waiting for the natural light, Christopher and photographer Hoyt often just stand in place and wait for three or six hours. Only the lighting group and camera group are busy, and everyone else is waiting in place.
This is a very boring and patient work. What's more, Iceland has entered the winter mode now. Even if you stand outside armed, you can't bear the wind knife. This also makes the test work more difficult. You can only work for a few hours a day.
The only thing to be thankful for is that the shooting location chosen by the crew has not entered the Arctic Circle, and there is no need to face the trouble of polar night. There are still four to six hours to work every day. This created the conditions for Christopher's fantastic ideas, and avoided the dilemma that all scenes had to be shot in the shed.
Today is just the second day for the crew to make preparations. Even Christopher himself is still looking for the state. His mind is constantly calculating and conceiving the pictures. The use of lights and lenses is also constantly adjusting. At present, the speed of testing is slightly lower than expected.
However, this is the price of pursuing realism, which is time-consuming and labor-consuming. Although it can create a unique viewing experience, computer special effects can also produce similar feelings, and the audience is not necessarily able to distinguish between business trips. Only a few directors like Christopher and Alfonso still stubbornly adhere to their beliefs, but they also become the guardians of film art.
Putting aside the preliminary test work of "Star Trek" temporarily, Langley left the crew, joined Paul and meDo, and began to travel around Iceland along Highway 1.
But obviously, it's not an easy journey.
November 28.
"Lan Li, tell me, I want to know the boy, isn't that right? It's my responsibility and obligation as a father, and it's also my right! "
"Lan Li, however, is it not my right to associate with any boy? Why does Dad need to know everything? This is my privacy
"But you don't have the ability to judge!"
"Are you questioning my choice to make friends?"
"You know I don't mean that. Don't misinterpret it. "
"Are you not misinterpreting my words?"
"It's you!"
"It's you
November 29.
"Langley, I don't want to talk to Dad anymore. I want to finish this trip now. I'm sorry
"MeDo, you can't be so headstrong. Lanli has made time to travel and relax. Can't you understand lanli's hard work?"
"I can understand Langley, but I don't want to talk to you anymore."
"Then you can talk to Langley. It doesn't matter. I just keep silent. I will not force you to speak
MeDo is silent.
Paul was silent.
"... well, hey, Paul, meDo, which one of you is hungry? I'm hungry! Why don't we go to lunch now? What about the lunch menu? "
November 30.
"I'm serious, Mr. Paul, miss medot. I need a picture of you two! I! Yes! demure! I'm going to give you one last chance. No no no! No excuse, don't ask me why I need your group photo, the only reason is: I want it! So now it's better to shut up and take photos quickly! God! I'm almost blown away by the wind
"Hahaha, the strong wind in winter in Iceland is really exaggerated. Look at you two, you are like penguins damaged by freezing! Closer, closer! Come on, smile! Such a smile looks too sad, bright, happy! Wait, don't move. I haven't pressed the shutter yet! Wait a second. Laugh! Laugh
"Lan Li!"
"Lan Li!"
December 1st.
"Lanli, you look very happy today. What's the matter?"
"Yes, I think you are different today. What happened? Was there any surprise last night? "
"Oh. I just enjoy nature. This trip around the island, I always feel like this, don't I? Iceland is really a magical country. Standing on the earth, you can feel the gravity, but it seems to be on Mars. In front of nature, we can't help but become humble and feel our own smallness and humbleness.
I think we should learn to cherish life. "
"... it's really strange for lanli!"
"Ha ha, isn't it strange that it should be your father and daughter? They still refuse to talk to each other. They only join hands when they talk to me. I try so hard to create opportunities. Don't you feel it? God, both of you are equally insensitive. "
MeDo was silent again.
Paul was silent, too.
Lan Li had no choice but to help his forehead. These two father and daughter were really... For fear that others would not know that they were both "Walker".
Even Langley didn't realize that Paul's personality was so stubborn. Behind the warm smile of the sun, he always refused to give in easily. On some issues of principle, he was even stubborn. But if you think about it carefully, Paul's attitude towards diesel will give you some clues.
And meDo actually inherited such a personality.
Sure enough, people always say that if you want to get to know a person better, travel together. Because in the course of the journey, those trivial details can often try to find out each other's habits and attitudes, even the three outlooks, and both sides can smoothly complete the journey, then it is a rare harmony.
Looking at each silent meDo and Paul, Langley's smile can't help but rise. He likes such a little tempered Paul, because such a Paul is more real. He doesn't have no temper, he just doesn't want to waste his temper on people who are not worth caring about; On the other hand, it is because he cares that Paul is more impatient.
Involuntarily, Langley remembered that when shooting "detachment", Paul had a dispute with diesel because of his relationship. He went to the set in New York to express his apology to Langley face to face. Everything comes from a sincere and enthusiastic heart.
In the past few days, lanli's mood was always tense. He didn't know how to change his fate, because he was not God after all; He didn't know how to avoid disaster, because he was not a prophet after all. He was not sure if Paul had evaded his destiny when he came to Iceland from Los Angeles. He was also not sure if his destiny had deviated. He had to wait with anxiety.
Every second, every moment, that tension never disappeared. But the reality is that time passes by unconsciously.
On the 30th, nothing happened. There were no accidents, no bumps, no bumps. The whole day was calm; Then the first day went by like this. Until night came, Paul was still sitting safe and sound, arguing with his daughter, just like a child who had not grown up.
Everything is natural and trivial. It's so calm that it's boring. I can't feel any waves. But Langley is enjoying the peace, because Paul is still alive.
That's what matters.
Lan Li didn't know what he had changed, how many chain reactions butterfly wings would cause, and whether his decision was right or not. But... He was sure that he didn't regret it. Even if he did it again, he would still make the same decision.
Paul seems to be aware of the eagerness and moving in blue Li's eyes. He can't help but stir up his eyebrows and cast a puzzled look. He asks "what's wrong" with his eyes.
Blue Li showed a big smile, shook his head and said nothing, and then make complaints about it. "I mean, it's really a very hard thing to travel with you. I must firmly remember that I can't leave you alone in the same space. It's as if you can't put cats and dogs together."
"Lan Li!"
"Lan Li!"
Paul and meDo cried out at the same time, but Paul was a little helpless, and meDo was a little coquettish, which made Lan Li laugh happily.
Suddenly, there was a restless sound in my ear, "Aurora? Wow, the aurora appears! Wait, it's really Aurora! "
The hustle and bustle of voices came, vaguely unable to hear clearly, but Langley seriously captured the information in a few words, and then raised a smile at Paul and meDo, "Aurora! Do you hear me? The aurora is coming
"Lanli, don't change the subject." Paul tried to struggle for a while, but his words were not powerful at all. Then he saw Langley standing up happily, patting Paul and meDo on the shoulder, and shouting happily, "do you hear me? aurora! Come on, let's go after the aurora
Without waiting for two people to respond, Lan Li trotted out of the hall of the residence tonight and rushed out.
