Actually, that's it. Really, off we go?
Before Chen Zihao and Melanie had time to reflect, they got on the jeep and drove towards the shooting scene.
"If you're a liar and abduct us now, it's bad." Melanie regained her usual sense of humor and joked.
Nathan chuckled. "Ha, this is your territory. Forget it?"
In the midst of laughter, Chen Zihao also slowly regained his mind: the dream is really happening! He still couldn't believe that Lan Li really remembered him, and that promise was true! It's so incredible that Chen Zihao can't stop smiling.
Nathan is not a talkative personality, but Melanie and Chen Zihao, as tour guides, are extroverted. Because they are on the set of "Jurassic world", they are even more excited and chatter out questions. Nathan just needs to answer them, which makes the carriage full of joy.
Then they arrived at their destination.
In the distance, a field with a wide field of vision appears in front of us. In the center is a continuous open grassland. The whole open space is at least one kilometer long and can be used to shoot all kinds of scenes; From the far end, you can see the dense jungle spread out in a vast way. The undulating horizon makes you touch the forest vaguely, and then let others greedily explore the shooting in the open space in front of you.
"This is the shooting site in Jurassic Park!" Melanie, as a senior staff member of the ranch, has gone through the journey of film shooting scene countless times, and she naturally recognized it at a glance.
This used to be the actual shooting site of "Jurassic Park". They stayed here repeatedly every time. Not far away, there was a big wooden stake, which was the location of the first close-up shot in the series. Every time, they would stop to take photos for tourists; In order to highlight the sign, the ranch also placed the "Jurassic Park" holding sign beside the stake - of course, the sign was removed for shooting.
Nathan nodded in affirmation. "It's a little bit of the director's ingenuity, echoing the first movie in the series."
In fact, Colin is a huge fan of movies. There are many details in the Jurassic world that pay homage to Steven Spielberg's original series.
In addition, like other directors such as Christopher Nolan and Steven Spielberg, he also has an inseparable feeling for film cameras. In this shooting, Colin used many different types of film cameras to shoot, showing the unique grain quality of night scenes. One of the cameras was the prototype of Stanley Kubrick's "2001 Space Odyssey", The antique camera is Steven Spielberg's personal collection, which he borrowed from Colin.
However, Nathan's understanding of film technology is not even superficial, and the details of these films are meaningless.
Compared with Melanie and Nathan, Chen Zihao is so happy that he almost faints. His eyes are greedy and eager to look at every corner of the crew, such as the rocker cameras, the shooting tracks, the radio microphones, the live make-up tents, the work preparation and so on. He feels that his eyes are not enough, It's like entering a world full of magic.
Then, Chen Zihao fixed his vision: "Lan Li!"
It's just a low breath. Before it's fully formed, it just disappears in his throat, showing his excitement. But Melanie and Nathan still capture those fragmented syllables, and then both cast their eyes towards Chen Zihao's line of sight.
Nathan's voice immediately rang in his ear, "Nick and ty's part is not over, they are shooting a scene surrounded by countless dinosaurs. Tai said that he knew that he should scream when he saw dinosaurs. At the beginning of the audition, they tried to perform a simulated scream in the air; But he can't imagine himself being surrounded by dinosaurs and still enjoying it. That's strange, isn't it? Langley is trying to trigger the imagination of the two little guys. "
"Is Langley directing the performance of two little actors?" Chen Zihao asked curiously.
"It's not a guide." Nathan shook his head. "It's more of a guide. Lenley is a college student and has a deep understanding of the basic skills of performance. Neither Nick nor ty has ever received professional performance training. They may need some help to adjust their performance. Both lenley and Bryce can provide some guidance of imagination. "
"Is the transparent sphere tour bus specially designed this time?" Melanie's voice came in, and her focus was always different. "I heard that the ranch was considering introducing this kind of top ball tour bus. After the movie was released, a new tourism project would be set up in the ranch, but I didn't know whether it was feasible to put it into use on a large scale on the technical level, and the route planning also needed to be discussed."
After the speech, Melanie noticed Nathan and Chen Zihao's surprised sight. She shrugged, "what's the matter?" "You pay attention to movies, I pay attention to equipment, isn't that normal? Now it's too far away. Lanli looks like a kitten and has no real sense. When he gets close, I'll start to pay attention to lanli just like you. To be honest, last time I was on the tour bus, I didn't realize it was lanli. I didn't look at it seriously. "
Take a serious look? How else do you want to take a serious look?
Nathan could not help laughing. "That's the top ball, but I'm not sure about the plan of gulanni ranch." Melanie is right. Everyone's focus is different“ In fact, it's not difficult to operate. Now Nick is operating. So, if the ranch wants to be introduced, it should not be a problem. "
During the conversation, lenley and Bryce had already left the scope of the camera, and the shooting continued without affecting the rhythm because of the arrival of the two tourists.
But it's kind of... Stupid to watch.
Through the monitor screen, you can see the remote shooting picture at a close distance, but because there is nothing in the whole field of vision, the two little actors have to show surprise and admiration, just as if they were really in a dinosaur group; The problem is that the onlookers can't do the same as the actors, so the picture looks like two lunatics sighing at the air.
Melanie deeply felt, "I should have no way to be an actor in my life. I can't stop laughing."
However, this idea lasted only a moment, and then it changed, because Langley and Bryce appeared.
In fact, the scenes that lenley and Bryce are going to shoot are also full of absurdity——
A stuntman is wearing a giant Brachiosaurus rubber headgear. Brachiosaurus is a herbivorous dinosaur similar to giraffe, which can be regarded as one of the largest herbivorous dinosaurs. However, at this time, the stuntman is wearing a Brachiosaurus headgear, but only a headgear. Then the lower part of the stuntman forms a strange proportion with the long and narrow neck of Brachiosaurus, and his whole body is full of comics.
That's not all.
There are red dots painted on the head cover of Brachiosaurus, and then there are wires extending out. There are a lot of electronic equipment behind it, which makes the whole head cover more clumsy and incompatible with the surrounding environment. It looks like a circus actor coming to the scene, and makes the scene full of joy.
Lanli and Bryce are dressed in a regular way, which is in sharp contrast to the brachiosaurus headgear, and even a little out of place. The whole picture becomes weird.
Melanie's eyes widened, and she couldn't believe her eyes. "... it looks like a high school drama. All the props are handmade by herself, revealing a feeling of" sincerity "- in fact, it's cheap and rough, which is the top production in Hollywood? Isn't that right? "
Because it was so straightforward, Nathan couldn't help laughing. "That's motion capture technology. Post production will complete all the work; Now wearing a headgear is to give the actors a reference template. The delicate movements of the hands will not be separated from the computer special effects. In short, it is more realistic. "
Despite Nathan's explanation, Melanie showed a "I doubt" attitude, and her eyes were filled with disbelief.
Nathan didn't go on either. He cast his eyes in the direction of lenley and Bryce. The shooting had officially started; Melanie and Chen Zihao are both laymen. They can't see them from a distance, so they cast their eyes on the monitor screen. But then they find that there are two sub cameras on the monitor, and they don't know where their eyes should be.
But when the show started, everything was OK.
Owen stepped down from the car, carrying his rifle, carefully looked around, and then walked towards the low moaning Brachiosaurus lying on the ground in front of him. After confirming that he did not see any other threats, Owen carried his rifle on his back and stopped at the head of the brachiosaurus.
Bent down on his knees, carefully checking the state of brachiosaurus.
Owen didn't worry or rush. His hands stopped slightly in the air. It seemed that he was feeling the temperature of Brachiosaurus with his palms. Then his right hand gently covered the neck of Brachiosaurus and gently stroked it. His left hand slowly touched the forehead of brachiosaurus. His eyes were full of tenderness and looked into the eyes of brachiosaurus, That light action seems to be taking care of a fragile baby, the softness between eyebrows makes all emotions sink down.
Without any language, just an action and an expression, lanli firmly grasped Melanie and Chen Zihao's sight with her performance.
