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

Chapter 249 This Is the Difference Between Old Actors and New Actors
After the news of the filming of "Spider-Man" went viral on the Internet, many die-hard fans who liked Xu Nuo's movies wanted to come to Yuzhou City to meet them.

If you meet it, it will definitely be a bloodbath.

It’s not a loss if you haven’t met it, just take it as a trip to Yuzhou City, which itself is a popular tourist city.

Unfortunately.

No puppet ever met the crew of Spider-Man.

The reason is also very simple.

At this stage, Xu Nuo's "Spider-Man" crew has not started large-scale outdoor scene shooting, but is shooting indoor scenes.

Xu Nuo divided the filming of his "Spider-Man" into three major planning stages.

The first stage is the indoor family and campus scenes.

Most of them are literary dramas, mainly including the scenes of the little spider's family, the heroine's family, and the scenes of the little spider in the school classroom.

Although the literary and opera part seems to be not difficult to shoot, the requirements for actors' acting skills are quite high.

For example, the atmosphere of the little spider played by Li Cheng and his uncle and aunt's family needs the actor's acting skills to set off.

As for the campus part, Xu Nuo tried his best to capture that youthful feeling.

Although He Feiyang often ridiculed that Xu Nuo's "Spider-Man" was a campus youth romance film, and many netizens thought so, but Xu Nuo cannot deny that his "Spider-Man" It does contain youth, love, and campus elements.

This is also a part of the movie, you can't strip it off, but you can't use this element as the main core, because if you use this element as the theme, it is really a campus youth romance movie.

In Xu Nuo's view, if this part is filmed well, then it is the flavoring agent of the movie, and it is a bonus item.

The second stage is the scene of the outdoor scene.

The outdoor scene scenes at this stage are mainly non-difficult action shooting.

For example, the accident encountered by the little spider's uncle, as well as the plot of other outdoor scenes, are all filmed at this stage.

speak up.

Xu Nuo also set "Spiderman" to be filmed in Yuzhou City, and also considered one point, that is, the style attribute of Yuzhou City.

Because in "Spiderman" that Xu Nuo is going to shoot, one of the very important plots is that the little spider's uncle was killed, and when he was dying, he left the little spider with a sentence that had a profound impact on him.

With great power comes great responsibility!
It is impossible for Xu Nuo not to film this classic plot, otherwise it would be difficult to bring out the growth of the hero, Little Spider.

However, because Xu Nuo is shooting a domestic film, the environment in which the film is set is also different from "The Amazing Spider-Man".

"The Amazing Spider-Man" is a story that took place in New York, but for Liberty America, it doesn't seem strange that such a thing happened.

But after the localization, Xu Nuo must make an adaptation in the settings and shooting techniques.

After all, how can there be such a thing as being shot and killed in the street in China?

Since guns don't work, they can be replaced with knives, and the criminal who killed Uncle Spider can be set as an extremely dangerous fugitive criminal.

Then add the cyber city attributes that come with Yuzhou City, and then slightly lower the city's "security level" in the movie universe.

Of course, it can't be too harsh, it would not be so good if it became a simple and honest Gotham City.

However, if Xu Nuo wants to make DC movies in the future, he can set Yuzhou City a little bit overhead and set it as a simple and simple cyber Yuzhou!
These are all later stories.

Xu Nuo changed the setting of Yuzhou City in the movie universe, and then adapted the setting of "The Amazing Spider-Man" to localize the uncle being killed by criminals, so that it basically makes sense.

After all, cyber Yuzhou City, why is the crime rate higher?
The third stage is also the most difficult stage for Xu Nuo to shoot "The Amazing Spider-Man", so it is naturally the most exciting stage.

At the same time, the third stage is also the exciting stage of real shooting that Xu Nuo pursues.

This stage is the ultra-difficult action shooting between outdoor scenes and urban high-rise buildings, and most of them are based on real shots.

Simply put, it's a battle scene!
Xu Nuo planned to put this stage at the end of the filming. After all, this stage was too exciting to shoot. Xu Nuo was worried that Li Cheng, a young man, would be a little bit nervous after filming the scenes of this stage. "Sequelae".

If we shoot the literary and drama parts with sequelae like this, the effect may not be so ideal.

So Xu Nuo scientifically planned the three stages of his actual filming of "Spider-Man".

Each stage has been fully prepared before the opening ceremony.

Three days after the "Spider-Man" opening ceremony event.

In the Xiacheng district of the peninsula area in the center of Yuzhou City, there is a mossy step in the middle of an old street, which is the place where Little Spider and his family are located in the movie setting.

This residential area is relatively good in this area, but because the surrounding environment is a bit old, and there is some distance from the city center of Yuzhou, which is the real group building, the scene does not look like a big city Rather, it has the style of the old city of Yuzhou City.

Shooting in such an environment can make the picture more advanced.

The so-called high-end sense does not refer to the bustling high-rise buildings, which would be somewhat empty. Of course, in Xu Nuo's "Spider-Man", whether it is the old style of the old city that has not been demolished, or the high-rise buildings in the city center The style of the bustling metropolis will be presented one by one in the movie.

"Li Cheng, in the scenes we're going to shoot later, you have to perform well in a state of panic, bewilderment, surprise, and calm analysis. This is a test of your acting ability."

During the break, Xu Nuo called Li Cheng over again and gave him a good advice.

"Yeah, Director Xu, I think I'm fully prepared."

Li Cheng took a deep breath.

For the next scene to be filmed, Li Cheng has been preparing for a while. When he lived in Director Xu's house and trained to become a little spider, Li Cheng also used the fragmented free time to master the scene during the devil training. The change of the role I want to play.

After all, it is from an ordinary person to a "Spiderman" with extraordinary abilities. If the understanding and performance of this transformation process are not in place, then the whole movie may become crotchless because of this.

"Have the final preparations and inspections on the scene been done?"

Xu Nuo picked up his thermos cup, unscrewed the lid and took a breath of hot air, then took a sip of tea, and asked the staff around him about the preparations on the set.

"Director Xu, the props for the next scene have all been installed,"

The staff replied.

"Take another 5 minutes break and get back to work."

Xu Nuo looked at the time and decided to give everyone another 5 minutes of rest.

During the three days of filming, the big guys in the crew really got into work every minute, and everyone showed a very full spirit.

And the performance of the actors is also good.

The lines between Li Cheng and his uncle and aunt were filmed fairly smoothly. The family atmosphere captured the feeling that Xu Nuo wanted, and some interesting details were inserted in it.

5 minute later.

"Come on, come on, let's continue working, the actors are in place, and enter the set."

Xu Nuo began to greet the crew to continue working.

First of all, there are the two roles of little spider's uncle and aunt, who have already changed into pajamas at this moment.

Because the next part to be filmed is the "interesting" plot that happened after the little spider took the subway home.

Of course, the scene of "triggering" Spider-Man's extraordinary ability in the subway is also quite exciting, which can be regarded as the beginning of Spider-Man's extraordinary ability from the visual effect.

However, the section on the subway needs to wait until the indoor plot scenes are filmed, and then go to the subway to shoot the scene.

As for the matter of contacting the subway track operator of Yuzhou City, Real Media has already contacted it, and the Yuzhou City subway track operator will actively cooperate with Xu Nuo's filming.

"The actors are in place."

Following the information sent by the crew through the pager, Xu Nuo sat in front of the monitor screen and controlled the entire shooting.

"Okay, let's take a shot of my uncle taking a nap at home and waiting for the hero to come home."

Seeing that all the preparations had been made on the set, Xu Nuo gave the order to start shooting.

In the room at this time, to be precise, in the room picture in the camera, there is only one person, and this person is the uncle of the little spider who looks a little fat and a little old.

The videographer's camera is directly in front of him.

Uncle's acting skills are of course nothing to say, he is an old actor in the industry, but because of his personal image and resources, he obviously hasn't played the leading actor in film and television dramas, but as a supporting actor, He's always been great as well.

Sure enough, when Xu Nuo gave the shooting order, the actor Uncle quickly entered the state, supported his cheek with one hand, and began to "doze off".

"Okay, let's start with being woken up from a nap and being woken up by the little spider coming home."

Xu Nuo said again.

On the actor's side, he quickly woke up from a dozing state and woke up after a slight shock. The whole process and state were very natural.

Basically, there are no traces of the performance, so the picture performed in this way can be said to be full of sense of substitution.

"Crack, okay, let's go through this shot once."

Xu Nuo looked at the picture on the monitor screen, and nodded in satisfaction.

This is just a very simple shot shot by the uncle actor. In a shot like this, there is only one person in it, and there are no lines. The time is short, and it only needs to express that kind of meaning.

Therefore, if such a shot goes well, it can basically be passed through in one go.

The shot of the uncle, the actor, is waiting for the little spider who has not come back very late. In fact, there is an aunt waiting beside him, but this kind of close-up shot only needs to be given to one person.

And there was a reason why it was given to my uncle.

Because the uncle will encounter an accident later, giving a few more close-up shots of the uncle before that can strengthen the sense of shock of the uncle encountering the accident later.

"Next shot."

For these relatively simple shots of the same scene, Xu Nuo shoots directly in one go. The biggest advantage of this is that the scene environment and props do not need to be fragmented and then restored after shooting.

The next shot to be shot is of the little spider trying to sneak home after a late night.

But it's a pity that there was still movement.

Because at this time, the little spider has undergone a "gene mutation", evolving from an ordinary person to a "Spider-Man" with various strange abilities, but he still doesn't have a clear understanding of the abilities obtained after the mutation.

The simplest example is that the power has become stronger, but the little spider is still unable to control this powerful power at this initial stage, so some interesting scenes of "ridiculousness" have arisen.

And it was precisely because the little spider couldn't control its strength well at the moment, so it made a noise when it tried to go home quietly.

At this time, Li Cheng is naturally going to appear on the stage as a little spider.

I saw him carrying his black schoolbag for school, holding his favorite skateboard, and carefully entered the house.

"Carefully, close the door gently."

It can be said that Li Cheng has skillfully memorized the performance process of this part of his play.

After entering the room, Li Cheng carefully closed the door.

Although the door is closed gently, it needs to be processed in the post-dubbing process, because according to the movie setting, even if the little spider is careful when he comes back here, he will make a comparison when closing the door because he can't grasp the power well. Loud noises, resulting in the failure to go home quietly.

Since Li Cheng wasn't really a Spider-Man with extraordinary abilities, his soft closing of the door obviously couldn't cause a loud bang.

So this sound will use sound effects in post-production.

If this is the case, for Li Cheng, it can be regarded as a "no real performance", because he closed the door gently, but he had to show the expression that he was worried about being discovered by his uncle and aunt because of the movement caused by the closing door.

These need to be mastered by the actors themselves.

Li Cheng's performance is also not bad, from the cautious and nervous state when he first entered the door, to pretending to be normal after the sound of closing the door, he walked towards the living room with a little embarrassment and poked his head forward, while blurting out the lines in his mouth: "I'm back , Uncle and aunt, I'm sorry, I'm late."

Seeing that the little spider came home, the faces of the two actors, uncle and aunt, changed from worry to relief.

This kind of facial expression and the change of the whole person's state, I am afraid that only such a powerful actor can do it very naturally.

To be honest, Xu Nuo could see through the monitor screen that in this scene, Li Cheng's expression changed from cautious and slightly nervous to awkward and then pretending to be normal to greet his uncle and aunt who was waiting for him. Compared with my uncle and aunt just now, it is still a bit worse.

But fortunately, Li Cheng's performance can be regarded as able to catch Xu Nuo's eyes.

It's just that the gap in acting skills between old actors and new actors like this can be seen at a glance.

Fortunately, Little Spider's character design by Li Cheng is very good. Although it is a little worse than the old actors, it does not seem to be inconsistent with the whole.

This is also Li Cheng's advantage over those traffic stars in the domestic film and television industry. If it were a young fresh meat to play the part of Li Cheng just now.

It is estimated that if Xu Nuo vomited blood, he would not be able to take a satisfactory shot.
