screen age

Chapter 313

But after only a few minutes of filming, both Andy Lau and Zhang Ziyi felt extremely uncomfortable...

This is the first time for them to feel this kind of uncomfortable feeling. Of course, it is not the first time for them to shoot this kind of movie that may torture the actors. It's really the first time.

So now Zhang Ziyi and Andy Lau are starting to feel overwhelmed.

Zhang Ziyi is a bit better, after all, she also needs her to go to the gym for many martial arts scenes in "The Grandmaster", so she is in pretty good physical condition now, but Andy Lau is different...

It's not that Andy Lau is in poor health, but that he is also at this age after all, time is not forgiving, and many times everyone will be troubled by this.

"Get ready, you might have to go up and have a look later." At this time, Chen Xi said to a person beside her.

This person is an emergency doctor, and Chen Xi specially prepared for the filming of "Gravity" this time. After all, Chen Xi has already prepared and planned for many things in his heart. Of course, he also knows what the situation is. What should I do next.Therefore, Chen Xi has prepared many things for "Gravity". If there is any problem between Andy Lau and Zhang Ziyi, Chen Xi will be able to respond in the first time.

"Okay!" Doctor Dai nodded to Chen Xi, expressing that he understood.

10 minutes later...

After the shooting of this section was finished, Chen Xi also called a pause, so Andy Lau and Zhang Ziyi both got out of the mechanical arm and the huge light box, took off the helmets of the spacesuits, and the two of them Her hair was almost dripping with sweat.

"How is it? Is there any major problem?" Chen Xi hurried up.

"Okay, it's okay." Andy Lau forced a smile at Chen Xi, and said, "I'll just take a rest." This is Liu Tianwang. In fact, no matter how others criticize Liu Tianwang, his attitude is definitely not The problem is, in order to shoot the film, he can make breakthroughs in many aspects.Like the kind of slave he was when he filmed "Lost Orphans", even though some people often think that Andy Lau's films always have a taste of "I'm good at acting" and "I'm working hard at acting", but Liu Tianwang's attitude It also supports many of his films, at least his performance in some films will be quite good, such as in "Sister Tao".

Zhang Ziyi wanted to say something on the side, but after hearing what Andy Lau said, she also closed her mouth. In fact, for Zhang Ziyi, the nightmare has just begun. After all, Andy Lau's role is relatively small, but Zhang Ziyi is from the beginning to the end In fact, there is no problem with Zhang Ziyi's attitude, otherwise, it is absolutely impossible for an actor with a problematic attitude to reach Zhang Ziyi's position today, but sometimes she may express some thoughts of her own, and such thoughts do not matter. It's not that Chen Xi also likes it very much.

After Dr. Dai checked the two people, they both said that there was nothing wrong with them, so the filming continued.

With the slow movement of the robotic arm, the shooting is also under normal progress.

Now many things have been adjusted and programmed, so the performance of the actors constitutes the first element. Zhang Ziyi and Andy Lau have also gradually entered the state. In fact, Chen Xi also solved a problem in the scene shot by the two of them. Question: Visualization of shooting!After entering the era of CG special effects, many human movies need to pay attention to a lot of things, especially in motion capture. Sometimes actors with a set of motion capture equipment need to imagine the effects of the things they shoot. Then make a corresponding expression, as if Juan Fu played the dragon in "The Hobbit". In front of him, the imitation of the Hobbit can only be a few mineral water bottles.

Therefore, when shooting some special effects blockbusters, the performances of the actors themselves may feel as if they are insane dancing in a group of demons, and they don’t know what they are doing... The light box that Chen Xi and the others made actually solves part of this problem, because the light box The lightbulb content that can be adjusted by Chen Xi and the others can provide actors with enough video content for their own imagination, so the difficulty of performing will be much reduced.

After a week of filming, both Andy Lau and Zhang Ziyi have adapted to this huge "light (oven) oven", but at this time Andy Lau's role is also coming to an end, after all, Andy Lau is the leading actor in "Gravity" It just appeared in two scenes, and the others never appeared again. The shooting of these two scenes was not difficult.

The shooting method of "Gravity" is actually shot according to the shooting convenience, not according to the timeline. In fact, most movies still use such a method. They are shot according to the timeline. It will allow actors to experience the growth and inner changes of the characters more deeply, and their performance may become better and better over time.It's like the Korean movie "Suyuan". It is easy to cause waste of shots and waste too many resources.

The last part of Andy Lau in "Gravity" is the part where he turned into a god to help Zhang Ziyi after filming.

In fact, this paragraph has a strong religious flavor, and science has once again returned to religion.

Chen Xi will also understate this paragraph a little bit... Otherwise, it will always make people feel that Chen Xi is like a banana man who is filming the story of the core of Christianity. In fact, he mainly feels that his skill is not enough, otherwise he will try his best Let’s reset the content of this paragraph, and replace the gods with a strong Christian flavor with a philosophical God without too many religious elements.

Philosophical God and Chinese Tao actually have a little similarity. Of course, whether it is a philosophical God or a religious God, there is still a strong sense of personality in the middle, but the Chinese Tao does not detract from anything. There is not so much ultimate concern, but everything is formed and maintained coldly.Chen Xi just wants to do a little more design in these aspects, and no matter what angle you understand from, it will actually be understandable.

Chen Xi's approach can be regarded as an attempt. He is also trying to cultivate his own independent ability. Otherwise, when everything in his head is outdated, what method will he use to maintain his previous status and status? strength?

The shooting of this section is more dangerous, and it is actually a bit difficult. This section must go through post-production, but for the convenience of post-production, Zhang Ziyi can only take a part of it now, and sometimes her legs and body are sometimes It needs to be supplemented by CG special effects, but this will make Zhang Ziyi more uncomfortable, so in order to maintain her body balance, Zhang Ziyi has to straighten one leg all the time, plus the surrounding light boxes and various The action is really tiring.

...After three days of filming for this part, Andy Lau's role has been completely wrapped up!
Andy Lau invited everyone in the crew to have a meal. During the meal, Andy Lau's attitude was completely different from that at the beginning.

When Andy Lau and Chen Xi first met, although they were very polite and polite, Chen Xi felt that there were too many flavors of hello and me in this kind of politeness and politeness. There is no real admiration for Chen Xi...but after so many days of filming, Andy Lau was indeed convinced by Chen Xi.

And in the usual chats with Zhang Ziyi, Andy Lau also heard that many of Chen Xi's ideas for "Gravity" are the first in the world, and these things are shown here by Chen Xi, which is simply an amazing pioneering work!Therefore, Andy Lau's respect for Chen Xi is also much stronger. The existence of Chen Xi should be a benchmark for people in the Chinese film industry, and it is also a direction to pursue.

In fact, Andy Lau mainly invited Chen Xi to dinner today. When other people were eating, Andy Lau took Chen Xi to a high-end club. Stars in such high-end clubs often come. After all, these people here have seen too many stars. , almost immune to celebrities, anyway, neither Chen Xi nor Andy Lau came in with much expression, more just treat them as ordinary guests rather than celebrities.

In fact, Chen Xi's reputation is getting bigger and bigger now, especially after "Source Code", the movie he acted in made Chen Xi's popularity in China soar, reaching a quite terrifying level, and now Chen Xi wears a scarf Its more than 2000 million fans are really not covered...

Up to now, there are already fans with bibs that surpass Chen Xi, but if Chen Xi posts a bib casually, there will be more than [-] to [-] comments below, and some so-called celebrities who have more fans than Chen Xi, they post a bib. There may not be a thousand comments, and the reason for this requires everyone to think deeply.

Because of the current popularity, Chen Xi is always recognized by many people every time she goes out. Some time ago, Chen Xi's parents came to the capital, and Chen Xi went shopping with them, but was recognized by others. That day, Chen Xi herself was surrounded. In desperation, they can only let their parents go first, and then look for opportunities by themselves. Although their parents will feel a little excited and excited when they see Chen Xi's current popularity, after all, their son is so famous, and this kind of happiness is hard to hide. However, thinking that it is difficult for Chen Xi to go shopping with them quietly now, the two of them feel a little lost.

Sometimes, that's the way it is.

The world is safe and secure?Live up to Tathagata and live up to Qing?
Chen Xi and Andy Lau chatted a lot. When it came to movies, Andy Lau's rich experience in movies even if he inherited Chen Xi's memory, Chen Xi still felt like a treasure trove, and Chen Xi's understanding of the film industry was still very limited. Some insights into the future of Chinese-language films will always give Andy Lau a feeling of being overwhelmed, so this is also a good time for the two of them.

After finishing this matter, the filming of "Gravity" continued.

What Chen Xi can feel the most now is the things brought about by the growth of his status. At the beginning, when Chen Xi was just a young director who had just debuted, when he was filming "Latent", there were a few shots in the middle that Chen Xi felt that it was not good. They had to discuss in their hearts for a long time before going to talk to Sun Honglei, and when they spoke, they had a discussing tone, even cautiously, and were worried that they would offend this star... But now Chen Xi... If Zhang Ziyi's performance has Although Chen Xi would not scold people directly for something that was not in place, he still said it unceremoniously. If there were several times, Chen Xi would be impolite and scold directly.

When Zhang Ziyi was scolded by Chen Xi at first, she was stunned for a while, and she felt that tears were about to come out. After all, Chen Xi was so much younger than herself, and the date of entering the film industry was much shorter... But Zhang Ziyi was just like that She was so similar for a moment, and soon she became docile.

After all, Chen Xi already has this qualification, he is already the best director in China, "Lost in Thailand" and "Source Code" in commercial films, especially "Source Code" with a global box office of [-] million US dollars It has pushed Chen Xi to a position that was incomparable to him before. Now that he is in China, he may not be as good as some veteran directors in other respects for the time being, but when it comes to purely commercial films, he no longer has to worry about provocations from any Chinese directors.

So Zhang Ziyi just nodded with red eyes, and Chen Xi felt a little embarrassed seeing her like this, and tried not to swear afterward.

In fact, Zhang Ziyi was under a lot of pressure. It was the first time for her to shoot such a role that was almost a one-man show, and it was so difficult to shoot during the whole process. From some perspectives, it really made Zhang Ziyi feel "Gravity" Zhang Ziyi is quite clear about the psychology of the heroine in ", and some of this person's thoughts, especially the deep-rooted loneliness.

In this way, Zhang Ziyi also performed well. Her acting skills were already good. Now that she has this kind of icing on the cake, Zhang Ziyi's performance will become more and more penetrating.

In a scene shot today, in the movie, Zhang Ziyi was spinning around, spinning uncontrollably in space. The actual shooting now is to use the camera to catch up with Zhang Ziyi at a very fast speed under the control of the mechanical arm. She could hardly move her eyes during the whole process. After this shot was finished, the filming of "Gravity" actually came to an end. After another week or so of shooting at most, "Gravity" could be finished.
