Don't call me Master, call me Director

This "Severn X" will become the pioneer and patriarch of this genre, providing inspiration for countless related works in the future.

In fact, as early as when preparing for "Super 8", Shen Er had already written the script of "Seven X" by the way.

And because of the need to participate in the film festival, Shen Er also specially wrote two script outlines for the movie version of the script that only retains the main line, and the TV version of the script that will be expanded into a TV series in the future.

Originally, Shen Er planned to polish the script again, trying to make this world's first cyberpunk work more perfect.

However, the current environment makes Shen Er decide to speed up the progress and launch this work as soon as possible.

For this reason, Shen Er sent an email to Cloris, asking her to help choose a suitable film director in Europe and the United States.

There is no way, Shen Er himself has been blacklisted by the film critics. To make such an award-winning film is to actively enter the home field of those old guys, and they will definitely change their ways and become disgusting.

Shen Er is not shaking M, and he himself is really not good at this kind of slow-paced story.

So "Seven X" can only be handed over to others to shoot, and he can participate in the production as a producer.

After issuing the director employment announcement of "Seven X", Shen Er temporarily put the progress of this work on hold, and planned to wait for his favorite director to appear before continuing the project progress.

At this time, Shen Er's energy was fully put on the shooting of "Super 8".

Shiro, who "collected materials" in Yokohama, finally returned to Fuyuki City. After passing on his memory of Yokohama's architecture to Red A, the two emiya began their journey of building masters on the set.

In addition, Cu Chulainn, Diarmuid, Enkidu, Yanqing, Master Li... and others also began to rehearse the action scenes of the final battle.

As we all know, before the new generation of Ultraman, except for the special case of Xieren (Jack), most Ultraman basically didn't use weapons very much.

Even if there is, it is either changing a bucket like the prince (Taylor) to sober up the alcoholic, or using the whole lightsaber to pretend to be aggressive like the king (Aguru).

Compared with using weapons, Ultraman prefers close-to-hand combat. No matter how powerful their light skills are, they are only used as execution skills in most cases.

This situation is no exception even for Ace, the director of the meat factory who has the nickname of King of France.

This kind of situation is naturally a compromise made due to the limitations of shooting technology and cost at that time.

Tsuburaya always likes to add some reason-finding settings to such a situation. For example, in order to make Ace's melee combat look more reasonable, Tsuburaya even specially added the setting of Hercules to him.

This is probably why there is Ace in Zeta's red power type...

It's just that Tsuburaya's settings are seldom carried out to the end, and more often the settings are lost after the settings are completed.

After all, Lun Chishu Yuangu is definitely the leader in the industry, and many settings are filled in for the sake of filling in the settings.

For example, Nan Xizi, the female human body of Ace, in order to realize that she was actually a moon person when she grew up on the earth, Tsuburaya specially added that Nan Xizi was sent to the earth after being rejuvenated, and fell asleep on the earth for 1 people. Year.

In other words, the actual age of this sister is actually the same age as Leo...

However, this setting didn't last long. Tsuburaya threw it away after it was proposed once, and never picked it up again.

Anyway, just look at the settings of Tsuburaya, Shen Er will only choose the settings that are beneficial to him, and following the settings of Tsuburaya is an absolute nightmare.

So even if the fighting literacy of the 8 Ultramen is actually the same, but in order to highlight the characteristics of each Ultraman, Shinji still let the Ultra fighters in the movie change from the almighty kings in their respective TV dramas to specialized fighters.

For example, Sai Mingming has the light skills that are not inferior to the light king Ace in quantity, but in the movie, he basically only uses head darts and Aimelium light.

While Ace retains various light skills, his fighting characteristics of dismemberment are also preserved. It's just for grading reasons that the second master will not shoot as violent as in the original drama.

In addition, Cu Chulainn was also required to undergo special training. He served as the actor of Jack Altman's leather case in the film.

With such an arrangement, the second master naturally took a fancy to Cu Chulainn's spear skills and asked him to use Jack's javelin more in the movie.

In the original time and space, due to the lack of funds for props, Jack did not use the bracelet in the TV version of Mebius and the two theater versions, let alone the javelin that the bracelet turned into.

This kind of tribute without a full set of behaviors is unacceptable in the eyes of the second master. He has already decided to engage in feelings. If you don’t have a 1000% audience, how can you buy it?

Designing a special fighting style for each Ultraman, and extensive use of weapons and light effects will undoubtedly increase the budget.

But Shen Er is very clear that if the film wants to attract people, the action scenes are the key, and the real action scenes are even more critical.

The former Tsuburaya didn't know if he was bewildered by doing CG. The final battle of Mebius's two theatrical versions both used CG for production.

But with the CG technology at the time and Tsuburaya's budget, the battle scene wasn't much worse, not to mention horrible.

If it weren't for Tsuburaya's action design is really good, and the camera shooting is also very innovative; plus the stingy Aunt Dong next door has repeatedly broken the lower limit of special shot CG, the negative evaluation of the battle part of the two theater versions must be much more.

Shen Er has always been very puzzled. With Tsuburaya's usual style, after finding that the CG effect is not ideal, he should directly change it into a leather case.

Like in "Tiga", after using CG to make a few episodes of Ultraman taking off and monsters exploding, but found that the effect was not satisfactory, Tsuburaya immediately replaced it with a model.

As a result, when it came to Mebius, he used CG again and again, which can be called weird.

"I don't know if the budget is too much, or the budget is too little, or is it easier to use CG to corrupt internally? It can only be said that the country is about to perish, and evildoers are everywhere..."

During the filming break, the bored Shen Er was thinking wildly.

In the previous life, this was an internal secret of Tsuburaya, so Shen Er naturally had no way of knowing it.

Because of his premature intervention in this life, things were stillborn before they happened, let alone knowing.

"Shinji, you are really relaxing!"

Shirou, who was taking a break in the middle of the set, sat next to Shinji, and said angrily, "I almost had a virginity crisis in Yokohama, but you are so leisurely in Fuyuki City! Why is it always me who has to work hard!"

Shirou complained louder and louder, and finally shouted out.

"Shirou, what happened to you?"

Shen Er sat up straight and moved his head closer.

Although the second master doesn't like being a gossip, he is as interested in other people's gossip as his sister.

"It happened when I was in Yokohama two days ago." Shirou was not very embarrassed, he scratched his hair and said hesitantly, "I was having dinner at an izakaya that day, and a girl came over to strike up a conversation with me... ...Then......"

Even with countless details hidden, Shinji can guess what happened to Shirou.

Peach Blossom Luck, no, it should be Peach Blossom Tribulation.

"It's really scary, actually using magic eyes to charm me." Shirou said with lingering fear, "You didn't see that woman hugging my body and shouting "" in her mouth, it's really scary. "

"Looking for a child~"

Shen Er smiled slightly, not paying much attention.

He and Weber didn't encounter this kind of thing too many times in the clock tower.

It is said that Weber still often encounters the incident when he lifts the quilt and finds a naked female magician lying inside.

"At any rate, Shirou, you are the only person in the entire magic world who can use the inherent barrier." Shinji patted his good brother on the shoulder and said, "Now I hope that there will not be too many magician families who use your genetic factors to give birth to children."

Shirou complained: "There is nothing to be happy about this kind of thing, right?"

"Then, how is that female magician's skill?" Shen Er smiled meanly, and gave a man a knowing look.

"What the hell? I used magic power to impact the magic circuit and escaped after unlocking the control." Shirou snorted coldly, "If I really made a mistake, what should I do if I have multiple children for no reason?"

Shen Er asked in surprise: "Hey? Don't you know? We can control our body fluids by adjusting the magic power. Although we can't achieve [-]% pregnancy, it is not a problem at all if we want to be [-]% pregnant." .”

This is a magic power technique taught by Mr. Zouken after Shen Er entered puberty, in order to fear that the Matou family will suddenly have a few more heirs of Yeluzi who don't know where they came from.

"What is that? I don't know at all?"

Shirou had a black question mark on his face.

His father, Kiritsugu, was from Nokiko himself, and Kiritsugu himself didn't know the magic power usage skills necessary for a big family, not to mention Shirou.

"Tsk tsk." Shen Er patted his good brother on the shoulder, "Shirou, you missed a hundred million."

Shirou waved Shinji's hand away angrily: "Don't look at me with such sympathy, scumbag."

Chapter 134

"Matou Shinji's new work, the Ultraman movie begins, and the set reveals the secret! "

After entering the summer, similar news began to circulate on the Internet. This is to remind fans that the new work directed by Shinji has entered the shooting stage.

On blogs, IMDB, Yahoo and other major websites, I also got a lot of information that Xingyue company actively disclosed.

〔The stage for this story will be Yokohama City. Currently, Shinji Matou’s production team is filming scenes in the city’s famous attractions such as Yokohama Chinatown and Yokohama Mirai 21! 〕

On the IMDB website, an article beginning with "According to the latest insider information" vividly described the filming process of the filming team in Yokohama, and guessed which scenic spots will appear in the movie.

Subsequently, a photo of Hiroshi Nagano appearing on the set of Fuyuki City was published on the blog, with the title of "Reappearance of the Great Ancient".

Although Hiroshi Nagano has completed more than half of the shots at this time, the official announcement of his joining the crew is only now.

[Yuan Dagu, played by Hiroshi Nagano, has finally returned to the Ultraman series. The last time this beloved character appeared was in Tiga’s theatrical version. 〕

[In "Super 8", his superficial identity will be a staff member of the Yokohama Tourism Bureau, and his secret identity will be the Ultraman human body that saves the world! 〕

All of the above are half-truths and half-false news voluntarily released with Shen Er's permission.

While arousing the attention of the public, it will not make the audience guess the plot by revealing too much.

There is no way to release these news to reporters. Everyone knows that the great director Shinji has started shooting a new film, and the Fuyuki City studio is surrounded by reporters all day long.

In order to prevent these reporters from secretly capturing any key content, the film crew and reporters formed a tacit understanding—the film crew would release some movie news from time to time, while the reporters listed the set as a restricted area and were not allowed to enter.

Because now Shen Er is shooting intense and complex action scenes, and he has no time to deal with media reporters, but various magic tricks will be used in the shooting process, so ordinary people must be prohibited from appearing on the set.

Shinji is currently filming the air combat part of the film's last stop.

After careful selection, Shinji decided that the monsters to be fought in the final battle would be Hippolyte, Jeponton and Five Emperors.

How can I say that this movie also gathers the Heisei Big Three, so what if the Five Emperors don't make an appearance.

In this air battle that is being filmed, the two sides of the battle are the Five Emperor Beasts and the Heisei Three Heroes.

And the location where they filmed is really in the air.

In order to show the flexibility of Ultraman and the monsters in the air, Shen Er sent out all the things in his hands that could go to the sky.

Some high-speed flying shots were shot with Iscanfar's bullock cart and Medusa's Pegasus hanging from the actors.

And those shots of hovering and fighting let the actors perform on the chain field built by Enkidu.

Shen Er first recorded these materials with a camera, and then just removed the chain P in the later stage.

During the filming of this episode, the actors seemed thrilling, but in fact they jumped and fought back and forth between the chains in the sky very dangerously.

In order to prevent falling due to weakness in the lock of the sky, in addition to Enkidu who can fly originally, Tiga, Dyna and Gaia of the Heisei Three Heroes were composed of red A and Yan who have no divinity respectively. Played by Qing and Lancelot.

In fact, Shinji also wanted Iskandar to play the supreme Gaia type and the strong Dyna type, but unfortunately the divinity of the emperor made it very awkward for him to film on the sky lock.

Coupled with the limited duration of the movie, it would be a bit messy to let Dyna and Gaia also change their forms, so in the end Shinji gave up this idea.

So the only Ultraman who appeared in multiple forms in the whole movie was Tiga.

Well, this is the treatment of the protagonist in the legend.

"Ah!"

In the air studio, Yan Qing, wearing a Dijia leather case, kicked the flying five emperor beast (Enkidu) on the head with flapping wings.

Shen Er, who was sitting on the chariot, was engrossed in watching the real-time images transmitted by the monitor.

The burly five emperors kept firing light bullets at the three Ultramans, forcing the three Ultramans to be unable to get close.

And whenever Ultraman uses the light skill, Wudimon will use the eye Q to absorb the light and then bounce back.

In the end, with the cooperation of the three Ultramans, each of them found the part of their old opponent on the Five Emperors Beast, and launched a light attack at the same time, and shot this guy down to the ground.

This action is still very difficult and dangerous, even if the heroic spirit falls from this height and survives, he will be half disabled.

And because of wearing a slime holster, the heroic spirit has no way to transform into a spirit body.

Therefore, from the beginning to the end of the shooting, all other heroes were on standby outside the scope of the camera to prevent accidents.

In order to successfully shoot the high-altitude battle, the crew started various preparations a long time ago, and preset many emergency response plans.

However, Shen Er was still very cautious during the shooting. He knew that no matter how skilled the heroic spirits were, accidents might happen, let alone the lucky red A.

So it is necessary to prepare protective measures in advance.

And not only protection measures, how to fight this air battle also needs to be well planned, otherwise the effect of shooting will become very messy.

So before shooting, Shen Er specially asked the animation company to help produce and design the animation preview of this part of the play, as a reference for several heroic actors when shooting.

Through this animation, not only the actors who appeared in the camera knew how to fight, but also Gilgamesh and Medusa who helped put on the special effects also understood what kind of light effect they should add to the picture. , It can greatly help the team to better complete their work.

In fact, the preparatory work Shen Er did came in handy. During the official filming, Yan Qing and Hong A made a mistake in their positioning, and they jumped onto the same chain, causing their center of gravity to become unstable and fall down.

Fortunately, Enkidu pulled the two of them with a chain in time. Although Yan Qing and Hong A's shoulders were dislocated due to the strong pulling force, if they really fell to the ground, half of their lives would probably be lost.

These two are not Uncle Hai, they have only one life and they dare not bet that their spirit base is strong enough.

Fortunately, after this small accident, the actors of Ying Ling paid more attention to the safety of the shooting, and the shooting progress was greatly accelerated. This aerial drama that was originally planned to be completed in nine days was actually filmed in only two days.
