The filming of "Rogue One" slowly kicked off amidst the turmoil and chaos. The first day of filming went through ups and downs. Rumors and gossip were easily filled with a basket; but with it With the advancement of the filming work, things gradually entered the track, and the work started to go smoothly.

It's even above the expected value.

The performance work of Lan Li and Felicity is getting better, and there are often different sparks between the opponents. The occasional on-site performance can also be the finishing touch. The most important thing is that because it is a commercial film, two actors' work The atmosphere is also extremely relaxed, try to avoid overpowering and breaking the overall balance, which also makes the shooting studio often reverberated with laughter, and the cheerful and cozy working environment makes people feel happy.

The humor of the two actors Ben Mendelson and Wen Jiang runs through the rest of the filming, and the interaction between Alan Tudyk, a super life treasure, and Max Mickelson, the king of cold jokes. I can always burst into laughter inadvertently. Of course, there are many masters hidden among the staff. Even if there is friction and stumbling during the work, unpleasant things are inevitable, but I can always relax after the shooting.

However, the real decisive factor is the work style of Garys.

After the running-in period before the start-up, Garis determined the relevant details and fully established the shooting framework and execution method of the whole movie. All of them are hidden in his mind. During the shooting, he can do it at any time according to the specific situation. After the adjustment, the instructions and intentions became clearer. From the behind-the-scenes production team such as the lighting group and the photography team to the performance team and other actor teams, the thinking became clear and direct.

Naturally, the entire crew went up and down like the same precision instrument, starting to spin at high speed.

What Jason McGatlin was worried about did not appear. The first scene was filmed twenty-nine times over and over again. It was only a special case. The smooth filming work allowed all the crew members to unite and focus on. Work together for a common goal.

Difficulties and setbacks still exist, they will not disappear completely, but this is the work of filming, encountering problems, solving problems, moving on, and then encountering problems again. The same is true of life.

For example at this moment.

"Craig, where's my reference map? Craig, it's stuck again! Craig!"

The entire crew is calling for Craig-hammack's (craig-hammack) visual effects on-site executive director. Felicity is hanging Wia, suspended in mid-air, and then filming has no way to start. All the staff are looking for Craig, the voice of the walkie-talkie could not be transmitted, and in the end, he could only run directly, hoping to complete the communication face to face, so that the shooting could start smoothly.

The idea of ​​the entire movie "Rogue One" is based on John Knoll, who is also one of the producers. He is a senior employee of the world's top visual effects company Industrial Light and Magic. His origins with the Star Wars series can be traced back to In the mid-1990s, a story concept conceived for the empire's ultimate weapon "Death Star" was derived from the original series, but it has not been until now that his idea has been realized and put into production.

As one of the most authoritative visual effects experts in the world, John Knoll also arrived at Pinewood Studios, but like Lan Li, he focuses more on his own work. The coordinating and distribution of the crew is by Jason- McGatlin is in charge.

The reason why John Knoll arrived at the scene in person was to adopt real-time special effects technology on the set. Lan Li had previously experienced it during the filming of "Interstellar", but no "Rogue One" was so complete and comprehensive. The entire special effects team performed on the actors. In the process, the entire virtual special effects scene was built.

On the one hand, virtual special effects scenes are projected on the screen through a projector to create an actual synchronized environment for the actors and blend into the performance state more perfectly; on the other hand, the virtual special effects scenes will also be synchronously presented on the monitor screen to provide a reference for the director , So that the director can evaluate the effect while shooting.

Of course, these virtual special effects are relatively rough and not complete enough. In the post-production process, they need to be further improved, and may even need to be re-produced; but in the shooting process, they can still provide an intuitive and effective reference, which greatly changes the blue screen/ The nothingness and emptiness of the green screen shot.

In order to achieve this effect, John Knoll’s entire special effects team built a giant LED surround screen with a diameter of 50 feet on the set. The center of the screen is 20 feet wide to play dynamic images to ensure that it can create the most realistic and appropriate Virtual shooting environment.

"Interstellar" was filmed more than a year ago. In just one year, the shooting technology has obviously been updated, and John Knoll is one of the leading figures. However, advanced often means that more debugging is needed. Still not mature enough, problems will inevitably occur in the shooting process.

It's like now. Felicity was ready, but there was no picture on the display, and I didn't know which part of the problem was wrong, so everyone was looking for Craig.

Felicity, who was suspended in the air, was relaxed, and there was still time to joke, "Craig, you didn't deliberately retaliate against me because you lost Texas Hold'em last night? You should blame Tony, it's not mine. wrong!"

The set is full of joy.

Another example is the previous scene.

Lan Li and Felicity, who were in the scene, had a dispute. They disagreed on the performance details, lighting route, and lens track. As a result, the camera crew, lighting crew, and audio crew were all involved. , The tense situation made others cry out in a cold sweat.

In the end, Lan Li made the final decision and left all the circumstances to Garris's decision, and in the end he obeyed the director's instructions. Facing the tremendous pressure of coordinating the differences between different departments, Garris did not panic at all, calmly analyzed the situation, and even put forward his own different opinions, completed the adjustment, and finally made the final decision.

Although Garis is a stunned young man who doesn't understand the world, his ability to integrate in the process of work is impressive. The impartial and upright attitude, on the contrary, allows him to divorce his position and give more objective and rational opinions; more importantly, he clearly knows what he is doing and how to achieve his goals. This is the key role of the director's position. .

Of course, the premise is that his partner will not be so angry.

But I don’t know whether this can be regarded as Garis’ unexpected talent. Even in the large crew, he has found a place in his own way. From "Godzilla" to "Rogue One", it seems that this is at least, When Warner Bros. ended the filming of "Godzilla", there were no negative rumors.

In the end, the tense and smoky situation was resolved satisfactorily. After the filming was over, the actors and staff were talking and laughing again.

In this way, the filming of "Rogue One" is on the right track. The crew runs more smoothly and smoothly than expected, and the advancing speed is faster.

The same is true for the scene being filmed. Craig appeared in time and quickly solved the display problem. The crew restarted the filming work. Felicity successfully completed his shooting task and ended the suffering of the scene. Before entering the next scene, the crew needs to re-adjust, lighting and cameras, etc. need to be re-arranged, which allows the actors to win a short break to adjust the time.

Felicity adjusted her slightly sore shoulder muscles and walked towards the lounge, only to find that Lanly was also sitting in the common room, which made it a joke, "This gentleman, please don’t Is it okay to maliciously occupy public resources? We need more rest space."

Max, who was sitting diagonally across from him, chuckled lightly, "The next scene is his. He came here to look for us to play against."

The good ridicule was broken by Max. Felicity stomped his feet and cried out complainingly, "Max!"

Then Tony-Zhen opened his mouth to relieve the siege, "Lan Li came here on a special trip, in fact, he prepared coffee for us. Today's afternoon tea was provided by Lan Li."

"Hohoho, welcome, welcome." The actors next to him were all booing.

Felicity looked helplessly towards Lan Li, spreading his hands, "I only said a word." Then everyone was covering for Lan Li.

Lan Li spread his hands and said calmly, "Do you know how difficult it is to be loved?" The little proud expression made Felicity roll a big eye, again and again Shaking his head to express his helplessness, "Dear Lan Li, you have changed."

"I guess so." Lan Li's response caused the surrounding actors to laugh collectively. Even Felicity did not hold back, and laughed after a chuckle.

But because I laughed so happily~www.novelhall.com~ Felicity’s arms, waist, etc. were pulled, and her sore muscles made her facial features fold in the middle, although today’s Wia is not long. , But after many days of accumulation, the body still protested, and she needed to rest.

Felicity found a chair nearby, sat down, looked around, and then complained, "Wait, where's the coffee? I thought we could enjoy coffee?" Obviously, the joke against Lan Li is not over yet. Felicity narrowed his eyes and looked at Lan Li meaningfully, expressing his condemnation.

While talking, Nathan Press led two staff members, pushing a small cart with coffee busily placed on it, and the strong coffee aroma diffused in the lounge, which was easily attracted. It got everyone's sights, and at the same time answered Felicity's questions.

Lan Li showed a big smile at Felicity, as if saying, "The coffee you want."

This made Felicity roll his eyes silently in response, but Lan Li laughed happily.

In response, Felicity said, "Coffee is still more important."
