Halo of cheating in the entertainment industry

The original version of "Inception" was filmed in six countries across the country. The cost of this alone is quite huge, which is not affordable for the Zuli version of "Inception".

But in fact, such a shooting location is just to make the movie more refined, and it will not affect the viewability of the movie too much.What's more, Su Li's "Inception" also spans east and west, and there are many shooting cities, which also cost a lot of money.

Su Li's "Inception" investment is much, much less than the original "Inception", but Su Li will never think that his "Inception" will be worse than the original version.

In terms of the rhythm of the whole movie, he may not be able to keep up with the original version of "Inception", and he may have a slight lack of control in some structural aspects, but in terms of the atmosphere of the whole movie, he I feel that I can surpass the original "Inception".

In terms of special effects, he also wants to make his "Inception" completely surpass the original "Inception". In terms of controlling the action scenes, he feels that his own will definitely be able to beat the original.

But in the end their investment was not that much...that is, there is no need to waste where there is no need to spend money, and after adding the price of labor, "Inception" will definitely be an excellent movie.

The shooting here in Shanghai is mainly empty shots and some indoor scenes. In fact, there are not too many scenes that really use actors walking on the street.

For example, the special effects shot of "Inception" that many people talked about and was so shocking, the steps and complexity they needed to shoot were actually not too many.

After this shot is broken down, the real actors Su Li and Yang Mi will walk on the street. There is no need to use special effects in this shot, but when the whole world is about to get rid of the laws of physics and press down directly towards the sky, the one where the gravity is messy You can't shoot on the street when you're shooting.

This shot needs to be shot in a studio. There will be a cuboid with a diameter of about three meters. This cuboid will be suspended horizontally. The actors will walk in the hollowed-out factory building on both sides, which will also slowly rotate. You can combine this shot with the world upside-down scene in the movie.

Many empty shots shot in Shanghai are used for some post-production synthesis, and many shots shot in Shanghai are dream cities.

------

Unlike Kunming, the land rent in Shanghai is astonishingly expensive, and it is quite difficult to clear the scene to start shooting, so the shooting cost is also quite staggering. Su Li sadly found that the cost of the budget seemed to be exceeded again.

So far, the whole film has some places where the shooting budget is not enough, and some shooting budgets are overestimated. The actual shooting cost is still higher than the forecast. From now on, the final result of "Inception" The shooting cost will reach more than 3 million yuan, and after including the publicity, it will be quite close to [-] million yuan.

After filming this scene in Shanghai, most of the rest of the film will be completed in the studio in Beijing.

"Inception" was filmed in Shanghai for more than a month, so when the entire crew left Shanghai and was about to move to Beijing, Su Li was already 22 years old.

Su Li, who has just turned 22, is still very busy and faces a lot of pressure every day. After returning from Yunnan, Su Li continued to sleep only three or four hours a day for more than a month.Although his boxing skills are becoming more and more energetic, he can't help but feel a little haggard.

This day was December [-]th. After Su Li finished the filming mission at night, he was holding a lunch box in his hand while he was pulling it into his mouth while looking at some information reports on the table.Yang Mi is not here these days and has gone to catch up with other movies, so Su Li will not be too strict with his eating posture, as long as he eats enough.  …

At this time, he received a call from Li Xian, and after quickly connecting the phone, he said, "Li Xian? What's the matter?"

"It's like this, I want to bring you some bad news..." Li Xian was a little embarrassed at the other end.

"What's wrong?" Su Li's heart sank slightly. Fenying Special Effects Studio basically undertook the task of special effects for "Inception". Many models and some processing are already in progress. If there is a problem with special effects, then It's really something to worry about.

"The fighting scenes about the snowy mountains that we discussed at the beginning... From now on, there are some unforeseen problems."

"What's the problem?" He finally calmed down a little when he heard that it wasn't caused by other things. The snow mountain was originally scheduled to be produced through post-production. Could it be that there is something wrong with it?

"It's like this." Li Xian said directly: "Before the shooting of "Inception", I once told you that the scene of the snow mountain battle can be shot through post-processing... But now it seems that if Sticking to that shooting method, the amount of post-compositing production is too big..."

"It was said before that the project volume is too large...but we discussed it clearly at that time."

"In the past, we were a little optimistic, but now it seems that the project volume is much larger than we imagined... At that time, it will take more than a month just to synthesize the fighting scene on the snow mountain... Moreover, the budget is too large. It is about three times higher than what was agreed before..."

It turns out that the problem lies here

Su Li thought about this matter in his heart. It will take more than a month to produce, and the budget will be three times higher... It is really not worth the loss. If we stick to this post-synthesis road, we may really have to go to a In a dead end.

"I see..." Su Li knew that it was time to make a decision as soon as possible, and he quickly made this decision: "In this way, cancel the scene of the snow mountain, and let's go directly to the snow mountain to shoot."

"Going to shoot on the snow mountain?" Li Xian was also a little worried about him: "Can you control that place?"

"Take one step at a time." Su Li's mind is still very clear, since one road doesn't work, he has no choice but to take another road.

There are still many advantages of going to the snow-capped mountains to shoot. The effect of the shooting will be more realistic, and there will be more gimmicks in the promotion of the film.

However, there are also quite a few disadvantages. The first is the problem of location selection. It seems that no movie in China has been shot directly on a snow-capped mountain. It is quite difficult to choose which snow-capped mountain to shoot.Secondly, when shooting snow mountain scenes, the difficulty of shooting will increase, and the safety may also be greatly reduced. If some unexpected problems occur, there is no way to avoid them.There are also many other problems. It is really not a good choice to make a movie in such a place where the natural conditions are quite harsh.

However, Su Li really had no choice.

After thinking about it, he has already started looking for a place where he can take on the task of shooting.

This place is not difficult to find. In such a huge China, it is not difficult to find a snow mountain that can be photographed. It is just that the subsequent props and house layout will be a huge expense.

It seems that the pre-production preparations for the shooting need to go there again. After a day of discussion, Su Li and the others finally chose the shooting scene at the Xiling Ski Resort in Chengdu, Sichuan.

The issue of the venue fee is easy to discuss, and Su Li and the others even want to not pay any venue fee - just the current title of "Inception" doesn't know how much attention it can bring to them, they confiscated it Advertising fees are considered polite.  …

But in the end, the other party still wanted to charge a little symbolically. "Inception" should be filmed on it for a few days, and they couldn't manage it in these few days, so they still had some losses.

The next more important issue is to set up the set and the snow mountain, including the house—some scenes can be shot in Kunming, but some scenes must be shot on the snow mountain now because of the change of the scene.

The preparation time may take about a week, and it will definitely cost a lot of money. Su Li is also planning to shoot the scene on the snowy mountain at the end of the movie.

After he was about to leave Shanghai, he immediately decided on the scene by himself.

On the last day of filming, Su Li and the others originally wanted to leave quietly without leaving a cloud, but unfortunately they were already being watched by the media. They followed up for an interview while the crew of "Inception" was still in Shanghai .

During the filming period of "Inception" in Shanghai, the crew still accepted a lot of media visits and interviews. Now "Inception" is about to be transferred to other places for filming, and the media are also coming.

These days, the media has communicated "Inception" with the outside world. Many people know about the filming of "Inception" and are always paying attention to the progress of Inception.

On the afternoon of December [-], after the last shot in Shanghai ended, most of the media gathered in front of some of the main actors and began to ask questions.

After shooting these shots, Su Li also properly explained to some staff members to set up the scene, and he himself started the interview in front of the reporters.

"Mr. Su Li, how is the filming of "Inception" going?"

Su Li said: "From the current point of view, our progress is quite good. The film will almost be completed in January next year." He has nothing to keep secret about these matters, and he will answer all questions.

"I heard that "Inception" will be filmed on the snow-capped mountains of Sichuan in a few days... Is this true?" The reporter was quite well-informed, and Su Li took a special look at him.

He also has nothing to hide, and it doesn't matter if he gives the media a lot of trouble, it will make the movie more attention.

"Yes, and it will be implemented soon..."
