"Wow, standing in front of you makes me feel like I'm not an actor at all." John Riley said with a dismal face.
Ben westshaw, standing nearby, nodded. "I almost feel like I've never performed before. Maybe I should change my career. "
Even Rachel Weitz, who came to watch, joined in the fun. "Director, can I leave the group now? I don't think I'm suitable for this movie. "
Lan Li, who became the target of the collective siege, looked at a group of colleagues speechlessly, but instead of arguing, he turned to Eugene and said, "director, how many times can I get paid for my film? I don't know, three times? Five times? It seems that my workload is beyond the contract. In other words, we can shoot a monologue with David's monologue, an experimental film. I think I can
Looking at Lan Li's appearance, all the staff around him couldn't help smiling, especially the gaping expressions of John and westshaw, which made him even more happy. But because the atmosphere was not right, the laughter was always in his chest and didn't burst out.
At the end of the day, it has to be blue Lilly.
Lanli threw his eyes at the bewildered Augus. He couldn't say a word when he choked. He seemed to have forgotten to breathe. His chubby cheeks began to swell slightly. Then lanli said, "what should we do? I think we've set Augus on fire. He's going to explode."
Boom!
The whole set burst into laughter, which could not stop.
However, oggs is not a director who fights with the whole audience. He looks at lenley helplessly. He doesn't joke with everyone, but he doesn't stop everyone. Then he finally starts breathing again and expresses "strong condemnation" to lenley with his eyes.
Langley can detect that oggs is not really angry, but he does mind that the shooting progress is delayed, so he turns to John and whispers in his ear.
Argus is completely confused.
Then you can see John standing up and coming towards Eugene, "just this scene, let's do it again. What's your opinion?"
Angus didn't react at first. Did Langley and John just talk about it? Then why can't Langley come by himself?
Then, with a flash of inspiration, he understood that Langley made it clear on purpose: on the one hand, he emphasized filming, because he knew it could calm him down and focus on shooting again; On the other hand, it implies that he is still biased against Langley, so he let his beloved John to comfort him and ease his "resentment".
This... This is obviously making fun of oggs.
Oggs looks at Langley speechlessly and tries to struggle against him. But when he looks at Langley's innocent face and seems to be in David's performance state again, he can't be serious. In the end, he still can't help but laugh. Langley always knows how to control the whole situation, doesn't he?
He turned his head and looked at John, "let's remake it again. The performance just now is very good. You can do it again according to your own understanding. I don't have any opinions." Seeing Lan Li again in the sight of Yu Guang, Ou Gus thought about it. After all, he didn't hold back, "why didn't Lan Li come over and let you come over?"
John blinked. "So why don't you go over and ask lenley and ask me?"
"Argus"... "Then breathed out a long breath and raised his voice and said," this scene just now, I'm going to remake it! "
John turned and walked towards blue Li, with a bantering smile on his face and shaking his head, just like two high school students who do bad things together.
……
The shooting progress of the "lobster" crew is very smooth, and the working atmosphere of the whole crew is also very relaxed.
For Lan Li, comedy performance is really a kind of enjoyment. We can explore different ways of performance and explore different forms of performance.
Later, Langley went to town several times to watch Buster Keaton's works. Sometimes it's just myself, sometimes it's in groups. Because of the performance of Langley, many actors in the crew are interested in Buster Keaton, hoping to get inspiration.
Eugene was overjoyed.
Bast Keaton's performance does give "lobster" this black humor works more possibilities, but the specific situation is still different because of the different actors, obviously, Langley is still the best, his performance is exquisite, touch is the best, often can capture more chemical reactions.
Besides John and westshaw, lenley and Olivia spend a lot of time together. They are not friends, because every discussion is very formal. They discuss comedy performance, stage style, character quality, and so on. They also sneer at each other because of their disagreement. The tense atmosphere often makes the bystanders sweat, But two people are very dedicated, after the quarrel, but it seems that nothing has happened in general.
When it comes to friends, they don't seem to be at all; They say that they are not friends, but they always sit together and discuss it over and over again.
It's a unique partnership.
Because of the harmony of the whole crew and the accurate positioning of the actors and styles, the shooting progress of the crew is very smooth, even beyond imagination. In less than three weeks, the shooting of the hotel part has been completed, and the shooting of the forest part has also been smoothly put into shooting.
For other film groups, the deployment of light is undoubtedly the most troublesome and difficult part of outdoor shooting. This was the case when shooting "Star Trek". A play takes two hours to shoot, but it may take four or even six hours to adjust the light, and a whole day's work is spent waiting; But such a problem does not exist for the "lobster" crew.
At the beginning, oggs chose Ireland and sneim town as his shooting base. The main reason was that he wanted to use natural light to complete the shooting and make full use of the gloomy and dark environment here to create the cold texture needed for the film.
For Augus, natural light is the most perfect light. It doesn't need to be adjusted and improved. When he arrives at the shooting site every day, he adjusts the corresponding shooting plan in the face of any natural conditions. Wind and rain can't stop the shooting work of the crew. He doesn't even need to spend time to complete the work of light measurement and dimming. He can roll up his sleeves and go to battle.
Of course, the light changes in Ireland are relatively stable throughout the year, which also ensures that oggs can face a relatively balanced shooting environment, and the light and weather can be kept in a stable state, which also saves countless time for shooting - otherwise, if it is sunny today and stormy tomorrow, the shooting will not be completed, and even the play will not be finished.
From the hotel into the forest, the shooting progress of the "lobster" crew did not feel any obvious change, and the real situation that made the shooting progress a little turbulent was still the script.
Although oggs works overtime every night, the script of the forest part still has many flaws. In every day's shooting, oggs and the actors need to make subtle adjustments to the lines, basically in the state of thinking while shooting, which also doomed the shooting progress to be unable to flow up, so the speed will inevitably be affected.
However, the whole production team devoted themselves to shooting, but they didn't feel the "speed blocked" state. The completely focused working state made the stumbling trivial, because the whole creation process was smooth, and brainstorming and thought collision ensured that the shooting always maintained passion, Every actor actively participates in his work, forgetting the meaning of time, and can only feel that everything is developing on the right track, which is enough.
What's slightly different is that after the story goes into the forest part, part of the plot takes place in the dark, while Engels insists on shooting with natural light, which also means that they can't artificially create the effect of dark night, but need to adjust their work and rest time, rest during the day and work at night——
In this way, the shooting of the night play becomes interesting.
In addition to the environment and state, they also need to race against time, otherwise, the change of surrounding light after sunrise will make the shooting impossible.
Now lanli finally understands how difficult and expensive it is to shoot the "wild Hunter", because the requirements of the "wild Hunter" for the natural environment are tens or even hundreds of times more stringent than those of the "lobster", which also means that the crew needs to struggle with nature and time all the time.
No wonder the investment cost of this work easily exceeds 100 million yuan.
So far, all the troupes in lanli's experience have strictly abided by the eight hour working time rule, with no more than eight hours a day, and lobster is no exception. This also means that in order to shoot the night play, the whole troupe has to sleep during the day, compulsorily toppling the jet lag.
In the past, when shooting "detached", Tony Kaye also liked to shoot night plays. Langley had experienced shooting scenes all night, but it was in New York at that time. The whole city was full of noise, and even at night, it was still like day; However, this time shooting "lobster", we need to go into the night of nature, that is, the whole night. Moreover, the forest next to the small town of SNIM still maintains the original ecology, which also means that insects and wild animals exist. Naturally, the overall shooting experience is different.
This is another reason why Langley likes the "lobster" crew very much: he has experienced a new shooting state, and then adjusts the state according to different conditions, which is also a severe test.
At five o'clock in the afternoon, Nathan wakes up lanli. Lanli sits up straight with his eyes closed, but he still doesn't want to leave the bed. It seems that he keeps his eyes closed and goes to sleep again. Then Nathan's voice comes from his ear, "lanli, Matthew is coming."
