Huayu Zhihao

Chapter 175 is no different

Liam Neeson and other actors, as well as Alan Ferraz and other behind-the-scenes staff, all watched Chen Hao burn incense and worship God with great interest, obviously a little confused and curious about this set of oriental opening ceremony.

Chen Hao didn't care about the eyes of the people around him. After burning incense and worshiping God, he directly lifted the red cloth on the camera and announced that "Taken" was officially launched!
Although Gong Huang said that it would be okay to start filming directly, Chen Hao still followed the established shooting plan, first filming the scene of Liam Neeson's house.

"Everyone be quiet, ready to start filming!"

"Are you ready for photography?"

"All right!"

"recording?"

"OK!"

……

"The first scene of "Taken" in the second scene is the first time, pop!"

Liam Neeson was lying on the sofa, holding a photo frame in his hand, and fell asleep with his head slightly raised.

Suddenly Liam Neeson woke up, looked around, and finally landed on the photo album in his hand.

He reached out to turn on the desk lamp, glanced at the photo frame in his hand, and placed it on the table. Then he picked up a drawing at hand and looked at it, then got up and walked out of the camera.

"Crack!" Chen Hao shouted while looking at the monitor.

"Neson, when looking at the photo frame, last a little longer, and it's better to have a smile on your mouth, and be gentler when you put the photo frame on the table."

"Okay, director!" Liam Neeson nodded.

After Liam Neeson sat on the sofa again and made an OK gesture, the second shooting began.

This time, Liam Neeson showed the image of a loving father according to Chen Hao's request, with gentle movements and a smile, coupled with his tall figure, there seemed to be a kind of contrasting tenderness.

After Liam Neeson left the camera, Chen Hao shouted, "The camera is in the frame for two seconds."

After looking at the monitor again and finding that there was no problem, Chen Hao shouted, "Okay, it's over, the next set of shots!"

Everyone in the production team breathed a sigh of relief when they heard the words, and there were smiles on their faces. Don't think that only Chinese people pay attention to a good start, and the same is true for foreigners.

The next set of shots is still Liam Neeson. He bought a birthday present for his daughter, so he bought it and packed it himself.

"Do you know the order of gift wrapping?" Chen Hao asked with a smile.

"Don't worry, director, I've successfully bagged several times just now." Liam Neeson assured with a smile.

Chen Hao nodded when he heard the words. Standing with Liam Neeson is still a little stressful, because Liam Neeson is more than 1.9 meters tall.

The subsequent shooting was indeed completed in one go. Although Liam Neeson looked tall, he was not clumsy, and wrapped the gift smoothly.

"Okay, continue!" Chen Hao shouted.

The scenes were not difficult, and even Munissen did not make low-level mistakes. The crew had experience in cooperation behind the scenes, and they cooperated tacitly, which made Chen Hao feel good.

Next, Liam Neeson's friends asked him to have a dinner. Most American houses are single-family houses with gardens and lawns, so they made barbecues and drank beer on the grass.

The four talked and laughed, talking about Liam Neeson's 17-year-old daughter Xiaohu and his wife Gong Huang.

The dialogue in this scene is a bit long, so the actor NGed three times because he forgot the words.

There were no other major problems, and it went down very smoothly.

So far, in just one morning, the filming of several scenes at Liam Neeson's house has been completed.

At noon, everyone rested for a while after eating, and Chen Hao and Chris, one of the assistant directors, decided the scenes to be shot in the afternoon.

"For this birthday party, Xiaohu's stepfather is a rich man. A birthday party must be attended by many people. Specifically, there must be at least two to 30 people in the long shot." Chen Hao said.

"Don't worry, I've already contacted 40 group performers, and the number is absolutely fine," Chris said.

"OK, but you have to tell them a good show, and don't make some low-level mistakes that delay the progress of the filming!" Chen Hao urged.

"Leave it to me, I will arrange them." Chris said.

Chen Hao nodded when he heard the words, and then went to rest in the rented mansion.

This mansion is the home of Xiaohu’s wealthy stepfather in the play. In reality, it was contributed by a friend of Davis’s acquaintance.

"How do you feel?" Chen Hao looked at Xiaohu who was reading the script and asked.

"It's really no different when it comes to filming!" Xiaohu pouted.

At first, she thought that filming in Hollywood would be very different from that in China, but after one morning, she felt that there was not much change except that she became a Westerner.

Of course, there are still some differences in many other aspects, such as filming time, the environment around the crew, etc., but when it comes to filming, it is basically the matter of the actors and directors. How much difference can this make?

"Taken" is not the kind of blockbuster special effects, there is no need for various motion capture, post-production special effects and other scenes that look fun and novel.

"Then you should prepare well, your role will be in the afternoon." Chen Hao smiled.

"Don't worry, it's just acting in its true colors anyway, it's not too difficult." Xiaohu said lightly.

Chen Hao smiled when he heard this. At this time, Xiaohu did not enter the Emperor Films to receive professional acting training, but he had already joined many film crews. It was when there were no rules and regulations, and his true colors stood out, he was quite aura.

Anyway, I have acted more in idol dramas than in the future, and it is basically a routine period. It is much better.

In a blink of an eye, the rest time is over, and the afternoon shooting is about to begin.

Chen Hao sat behind the monitor and waited for the start, Hao Yi went to communicate with various departments, and Chris was speaking with the extras.

When there are too many people, it is difficult to control, and some unexpected situations are prone to occur. Therefore, a big scene can test a director's ability to control the field.

And sometimes some group performers feel that they are very talented and worthy of being discovered, so they will do everything possible to show their uniqueness.

In this case, unless you are the male lead of an entertainment novel, this is actually a kind of harm to the crew.

You are wasting time, delaying the filming progress of the crew, and delaying the emotional continuation and schedule of the protagonists, so unless you are an entertainment male lead or have a backstage, you will be easily expelled from the crew.

This time Xiaohu's 17th birthday party, as the daughter of a rich man, naturally many people joined in.

In order to make the scene look lively but not messy, the assistant director could only repeatedly tell the extras not to make mistakes.

After Chris came over and said that everything was arranged, Chen Hao nodded and signaled to start shooting.

""Taken" No.18 scene first scene first time, smack!"

Liam Neeson got out of the car and walked into his ex-wife's house with the birthday present he bought for his daughter.

The camera gives a vista of the mansion, moving slowly as Liam Neeson.

"Crack!" Chen Hao looked at the monitor and suddenly shouted, "What's the matter with the two people over there? Why are you always staring at the camera?"

　Thanks to "China Entertainment Little Reporter" for the 1000 reward!
