Director: The special effects are too expensive, so I had to make real shots

Chapter 59 You may not know Director Xu's style very well
Xu Nuo's film crew consisted of more than [-] people, plus various boxes containing equipment needed for filming, as well as other luggage and packages, it seemed that there were quite a lot of things.

But for a Kunpeng transport aircraft, these can not fill its stomach.

You must know that the cabin load of this transport aircraft is as high as 66 tons, which can accommodate nearly 300 fully armed soldiers or more than 120 fully armed paratroopers.

The crew members and actors who boarded the transport plane were dumbfounded at this time.

Director, you said to charter a plane to the shooting location.

The plane you chartered turned out to be a fat girl?

None of the people present had ever flown on this kind of plane. They thought that the chartered plane mentioned by director Xu Nuo was just an ordinary civilian airliner.

Under the guidance of Colonel Luo Wei and other rabbit soldiers, everyone in the crew carefully sat in the transport cabin of the fat girl and fastened it.

"Colonel Luo."

Xu Nuo called Luo Wei who was checking the safety belt not far away.

"Ok?"

Luo Wei turned around and walked over, asking, "What's the matter, Director Xu?"

"How long will it take us to get to the base? There is a scene in my movie, which is going to be shot on a transport plane."

Xu Nuo asked Colonel Luo Wei.

Originally, the scene on the transport plane in the original plot of "Transformers" after the explosion was carried out on a helicopter transport plane.

The filmed plot is a picture of members of the military team returning to the military base in a helicopter transport plane after completing their tasks, and the team members are chatting on the helicopter transport plane.

This scene is actually quite important for the film, mainly paving the way for the natural state of the human army before the Decepticons stun and invade.

Xu Nuo made a slight change to this scene.

Because Xu Nuo felt that the helicopter transport plane was not grand enough, he went directly to Fat Girl and filmed the scene where the captain and the special operations team appeared on the transport plane.

"It will take a few hours to get to the Northwest Military Base, why? Are you going to start filming on the plane right now?"

Luo Wei replied.

"Isn't this only five days? The time is tight. It won't be possible to shoot now, but we can make preparations on the way to the base."

"Then I'll let the plane fly a little more smoothly, but this is your first time riding on the Kunpeng, you still have to get used to it, I suggest, or go there first, when you need to shoot this scene on the Kunpeng, If you take off again, it won’t cost you much money for fuel, and you, Director Xu, are not short of money.”

Luo Wei said to Xu Nuo with a smile, and suggested to get used to the state on the Kunpeng transport plane first.

Anyway, director Xu paid for the various expenses of the transport plane's mission.

This is why Xu Nuo was worried that his budget of 5 million yuan would not be enough at the beginning. All kinds of things from the military needed to be used in the actual shooting would cost money everywhere, and everything was still available. not cheap.

Originally, Xu Nuo was thinking at the beginning, when filming the urban air combat Starscream attacking the J-[-] combat formation in the final climax of "Transformers", whether to actually shoot Starscream to kill a few real fighter jets.

But this idea just went around briefly in Xu Nuo's mind, and then he quickly shook his head to dismiss the idea.

Because it's not realistic.

Not to mention that the cost of a 6 fighter jet is more than [-] million.

The most important thing is that this is not something that can be filmed with money. It is impossible for Luo Wei and the others to agree with Xu Nuo to shoot down a real fighter.

no way.

For the air combat scene where Starscream turned into a fighter jet and shot down several other fighter jets, Xu Nuo could only make a model of the fighter jet in proportion to blow it up.

Gotta blow something up.

"That's fine, Colonel Luo, what you said makes sense, let's let everyone get used to the transport plane first, and then formally film this scene later."

Xu Nuo listened to Luo Wei's suggestion.

I just seemed a little anxious because I only had five days.

If the actors and the camera crew did not adapt to the state on the Yun-20, then it is estimated that it would be difficult to shoot the picture effect that Xu Nuo wanted.

"But Colonel Luo, there are only five days this time. If I don't finish filming the relevant scenes, will I still have time later?"

Xu Nuo asked Luo Wei about the military's "schedule".

"It's definitely not going to work this year. The five days were coordinated by the Military Propaganda Department as much as possible. There are tasks in all aspects of the follow-up. There may be opportunities early next year. I will fight for it when the time comes. You wait for my notice." Bar."

Luo Wei explained.

"Okay, but at the end of the year, I will go to Antarctica with the polar research ship Xuelong."

Xu Nuo thought, if Colonel Luo Wei wins some more time, the assistant director can only lead the team for the Antarctic scene.

I mainly focus on the scene where I sit at the base, after all, compared to the Antarctic part, the former is more important.

"To Antarctica?"

"Well, there is a scene to be filmed over there."

"Director Xu, when you make movies in the film and television industry, don't you use green screens and studios to shoot? Why do you want to use our base, military weapons and equipment, and go to Antarctica?"

Although Luo Wei is usually in the army, he knows a little bit about making movies.

If you look at the whole country, how can any director make a movie like this?
Even fighter jets are used, that is, Xu Nuo. If you are another director, if you tell Luo Wei to borrow a few fighter jets, aircraft carrier formations, etc. to make a movie, you see, I will ignore you, yes Are you out of your mind?
"I make movies, and I love real shots."

Xu Nuo said calmly.

There is no way.

There is a plot in "Transformers", that is, the elders of the hero's family found Megatron and his spaceship in Antarctica and activated the fire coordinates on the pair of glasses.

In this scene, Megatron and its spacecraft can use models and special effects, but the Antarctic point must comply with the principle of shooting as much as possible.

Therefore, Xu Nuo has already contacted the polar research ship Xuelong, and the crew will rent it to go to the South Pole.

"You really love real shots."

Luo Wei knows that some directors will try their best to use realistic shooting methods, but Xu Nuo, who pursues the ultimate real shooting, is really the only one.

"Xiong Li, have the scripts of your combat team been correct? On the way to the filming set, let me tell you about the relevant scenes, because one of your scenes will be carried out on the transport plane in the current flying state For filming, you have to adapt to the state, understand?"

After Xu Nuo finished chatting with Luo Wei, he planned to verbally talk about the scene on the transport plane with the crew and actors.

Let’s talk about it now, after the plane arrives at the military base and lands, you can directly arrange shooting and live demonstrations on the plane, and then make full preparations for shooting, and then let the plane take off to the sky for formal shooting.

"clear."

Xiong Li nodded solemnly.

He basically understood that the director was going to do it for real, not only for the real filming on the transport plane, but also for the real base.

Because Xiong Li has participated in "Terminator", he naturally understands what kind of real shooting madman Xu is. It seems that the real explosion scene can no longer satisfy Xu.

I don't know what kind of real work Director Xu can do.

"By the way, Lao Luo, how much is the cost of the air-to-ground missile mounted on our J-[-]?"

At this time, Xu Nuo suddenly leaned over to the ear of Colonel Luo Wei who was sitting next to him, and asked in a low voice.

At this time, the other actors on the plane who played the role of the military team didn't know as much as Xiong Li. When Director Xu said that they were going to shoot on the flying transport plane, they were either confused or excited.

"Director Xu? Are we filming on this fat girl?"

"Fuck! This is a bit exciting."

"Not a studio?"

"Is it so real?"

The actors are all going to be stupid. Well, they have read their part of the script, and it is indeed a scene on the "transport plane" where the team members chat on the way back to the base after completing the training mission.

But everyone thought that this "transport plane" must be just a studio built similar to the scenes in the transport cabin.

but.

Director, where's the studio?
Co-author, you directly give us a real transport plane, right?
Xiong Li saw the bewildered faces of the actors playing his teammates beside him, so he smiled lightly and said to them: "You may not know Director Xu's style of filming very well."

Then, he added another sentence: "It would be nice if you didn't let you take a real shot of skydiving at an altitude of [-] meters from the transport plane."

Otherwise, you think Director Xu's salary is so easy to earn.

Cast: ? ? ? ? ?
