Maybe it was the surrounding weather that gave the two male protagonists more incentives, or maybe they just didn't want to suffer. As soon as the filming officially started, the two of them showed quite convincing performance.
"The Dark Knight, Scene 47, Act 1, start now!"
The slate was laid down crisply, and the director of photography, Robert, manipulated the main camera No. 1. With the aid of the cantilever, he gradually pushed the lens forward from far to near. In the center of the lens, the main targets were the two male protagonists.
"Give a life to a coin?"
At this time, Christian Bale was wearing a dark bat armor, and the whole person was under the camera, and was photographed extremely strong. Robert was very aware of Wayne's request, and the camera deliberately stayed on him for more than a second before switching to Chali-Xin again.
"it's not true."
"His name is Schiff Thomas." A low, hoarse voice came out of Batman's mouth. "Paranoid mental categorizers, who used to be patients in the Arkham Asylum, are the type most attracted to clowns."
Charlie Sheen frowned, followed behind Batman in a battle armor, and said angrily: "The Joker kills Gordon, and Rachel will be the next one."
"You wish..."
This piece of literary play belongs to a long shot. Except for the voices of the two actors talking, the scene is extraordinarily quiet. Wayne folded his hands on his chest, his glasses stared at the director's monitor without blinking, and nodded slightly from time to time.
The staff who are familiar with him know that such an action is definitely a compliment to the actor's performance, and it will not appear on him normally.
"Ok, cut!"
It wasn't until the entire long-shot performance that Wayne shouted into the loudspeaker without hesitation. "Beautiful work, this one is over! Give them thick clothes and hot coffee, and pay attention to the actors' warm work."
The moment he shouted to stop, the two actors breathed a sigh of relief together, and immediately put on the down winter jacket shivering, took the hot coffee handed over by the assistant, and squatted on the ground and took a small sip.
The shooting sequence this time follows the setting from simple to difficult. These literary dramas that Wayne is relatively good at are almost concentrated in the first half. Relying on the adequate preparation of several main actors, the shooting progress has been ahead of the plan.
These shots are simple for several main actors. Except for Charlie Sheen and Nicolas Cage, they have all participated in the first filming. With previous experience, the shots of several people can be considered as simple. Handy on.
Compared with the literary dramas that he is good at shooting, those tedious action scenes are almost all put to the back, including several extremely important large-scale blasting scenes, which he plans to shoot before leaving New York.
The gradually cold weather challenges the actors' ability to bear almost all the time, and the frequency of rest in the crew is gradually increasing. Every time a scene is completed, it is a scene of chicken flying. The assistant chased the actors to wrap clothes and deliver coffee, and the makeup team chased them for makeup.
After finishing the shooting every day, others can hide in the warm bed, or go to the bar to relax, while Wayne will take the editor and sister, dive into the temporary pull room, and start to prepare for the editing work in advance. .
As time went on, and throughout the month of November, Wayne would preside over shoots in the mornings and afternoons, and in the evenings, in addition to diving into the pull-out room, he would occasionally exchange ideas with ILM's special effects team, some of which were not special. Important cutscenes, he gave Gilmour all to shoot in groups.
The atmosphere in the crew was full of concentration, and everyone knew why he was desperate to grab time. Seeing that the awards season was getting closer and closer, no one wanted to make trouble at this time, and they were all trying their best to cooperate with his work.
"I've seen the first Batman: Hour of War more than once."
In the hotel's temporary pull-out room, the sky outside the window was completely dark, and Wayne and Julia were constantly looking at the scenes shot during the day and discussing at any time. The editor Julia, who looks like a black auntie, looked at her junior brother with a puzzled face. "From the footage you've shot, I see some differences between Batman and the first one."
Looking at these films every day, the difference is not difficult to find as long as you are a little careful. Compared with the first film, Christian Bale, who is now in the lens, is obviously stronger. There are also some subtle differences in the armor.
"Yeah, that's what I want."
Wayne shrugged, stood up and stretched his arms wide. "Batman keeps improving, doesn't he?"
The smooth shooting work during this period not only made the shooting progress much ahead of schedule, but also saved millions of dollars for the crew. The budget saved in the end will be put into the post-production work, as long as you think about these , The exhaustion brought by busy work seems to be less unacceptable.
"What's the use? Batman is a loser anyway."
Naomi Watts, who was waiting on the side, yawned and wondered to the man standing in front of him: "I don't understand, Batman is already so bitter, why do you finally give him such a Depressed ending."
Everyone who has read the script has more or less doubts about this aspect, because it does not conform to the laws of Hollywood at all.
If you look closely at the films that have been successful at the box office, almost all of them have an absolute protagonist who cannot be beaten to death. Even if there will be various twists and turns in the middle, the end of the film will definitely become a big reunion that most fans love, or the whole family. joyous.
"Nami, Wayne is past the time when you need to use the regular ending to please the majority of the audience."
Without waiting for Wayne to say anything, Julia adjusted her sitting position slightly, looked at the Australian actress, and explained: "Remember the "Happy Death Day" you participated in? His early films, although they also had strong There is also no shortage of discussions on personal style, social attributes and human nature, but when you look back and think about it, is "Happy Death Day" also a happy ending?" In fact, not only "Happy Death Day", Wayne later filmed "Escape" "Out of the Dead" and "The Clown Returns to the Soul", although the film itself has absurd attributes, but when it comes to the finale, the final plot trend will still give a big reunion that most fans can accept.
This has a lot to do with the choice of film. When you first enter Hollywood, all plans must be stable. Only such a film with a happy ending can gain the goodwill of most ordinary people and make fans continue to enter the theater to buy. Tickets for viewing.
"Yes, Nami."
Wayne nodded in agreement, and praised his senior sister in his heart. He had to admit that this senior sister, who looked like a black aunt, knew him very well in some aspects.
Not only in Hollywood now, he knew very well in his heart that even in the past 20 years, a happy ending that meets the expectations of most audiences is also the mainstream that occupies the high box office in the theater market.
However, there will always be some special cases of things. "Nami, I don't know if you have noticed. Whether it is a literary work or a great classical music work, the classic works that can be circulated for many years and are always taken out by people are generally tragedies."
Hearing his description, Naomi Watts nodded thoughtfully, and she somewhat understood what Julia meant. Wayne has passed the period when he needed to rely on the routine of reunion to gain a firm foothold among movie fans, and now he is looking for something far more than good-looking box office.
"Like 'Joker'?"
The Australian actress looked at the man beside her and said: "I remember starting from the movie "Joker", the ending of your works tends to be open-ended. This is the case with "The Departed", and now it is the same with "The Dark Knight", Right?"
"Yes."
Wayne nodded approvingly. "The ending with regrets is more impressive. Also because of the regrets, it is easier to stimulate the empathy of the audience. In fact, whether it is a happy ending or a ending with defects, there is no difference between the two. Everything still has to go back to the movie story itself Does this also prove that you have high expectations for The Dark Knight?"
Naomi Watts made an inference, rolled her eyes, and said, "Whether it's insiders or ordinary audiences, everyone seems to have decided that "Joker" will be the pinnacle of your directorial career. I understand you , you will never be satisfied with your previous achievements, it seems that this "Dark Knight" is a work that you have ambitions to match or even surpass "Joker"!"
After a reminder from the Australian actress, editor Julia also reacted. The movie "Joker" is destined to appear with the adjective of greatness. Now, as a younger brother, I want to make a movie with the same influence again. The difficulty is not ordinary.
The success of "Joker" is not only a factor of the quality of the film itself, but also the addition of social trends, etc. No one can tell how much.
In a few years, Wayne's other successful film genres will have varying numbers of followers, but there has never been a production company to copy "Joker", which can explain too many problems. So far, even Counting the entire film history, only this film is so socially provocative.
"Make a bet, Nami."
Looking at the film of "The Dark Knight" on the table, the corners of Wayne's mouth began to rise uncontrollably. "Just bet the influence of this "Dark Knight", how about it can be compared to "Joker"?"
"you sure?"
Naomi Watts smiled, glanced at Julia, the black editor, and took two steps forward without pretentiousness, lying in the man's ear and said softly: "Bet, the bet is up to you!"
