Chapter 530: Meeting the Paparazzi in the First Shot
At 8 o'clock in the evening, all preparations were ready, and the first scene of "The True Lies" directed by Chen Kangjie for the first time was about to start filming.
Because of the press conference, Chen Kangjie and the others did not hold any ruthless opening ceremony. They kept everything simple. In Chen Kangjie's opinion, the key is not the beginning, but the rescue. As long as they can make a good movie, it's fine.
After Chen Kangjie silently recalled the plot he had watched on the computer, he picked up the loudspeaker prepared by the staff: "The lights are turned on, please note that the first scene of "truelies" will begin soon, prepare,,,, action."
Chen Kangjie, who has worked as an assistant director in Hong Kong for more than ten days, is no stranger to the opening. In front of him, three TV display screens were placed, and the pictures in the camera would appear on it from time to time.
Harry: "Okay, this is Harry's Ronquist's, mine."
Swarzenegger, who plays Harry in Jimsi Off-road vehicle, said while flipping his coat and purse.
"NG", at the beginning, Chen Kangjie shouted "It's bad."
Chen Kangjie walked to the side of the car, took off his glasses, and raised his head to the photographer Russell Carpenter sitting on the camera seat, saying, "Man, didn't we agree to take a camera directly from the top to the roof, how could it be moved up from the windshield?"
"Director, this makes you feel more fluid." Carpenter said to Chen Kangjie below.
"This place does not need a sense of smoothness. When you slide up from the windshield, Harry's ID has been put into his pocket. I just need the process of hiding the ID in the car. This is to go directly to the topic. OK, you two, shake the camera directly." After Chen Kangjie explained to Carpenter, he ordered the two assistants behind the photography.
After saying that, Chen Kangjie returned to his director position. When he left, Carpenter not only did not get angry at Chen Kangjie's scolding, but instead smiled.
"Onemoretime, the actors are ready, the lighting is ready, and the first and second filming of "truelies" will be started soon." Chen Kangjie issued another order.
Harry: "Okay, this is Harry's Ronquist's, mine."
Albert opened a clinker bag, took out some documents from it, and handed them to Harry in the passenger seat: "This is Harry Tascoll's wallet, passport, ticket stub, hotel bill, and two Geneva postcards."
At this time, the camera moved down from the roof to reach the height of the window. At this time, Albert took out a bunch of keys from his bag: "This is your key."
Harry took the key and put it in his pocket. Albert turned around and took out a small gray box from the back seat: "In addition, this is a souvenir from the Snow Village in Switzerland."
Harry was a little confused, so he said: "What are you doing?"
At this time, another camera on Albert's side turned on, Albert: "It is the responsibility of a father to give to Dana, a fool, to buy gifts for children."
Harry: "It's so touching. Come and pick me up at 8 o'clock tomorrow." After saying that, Harry opened the door and got out of the car.
"NG", at this point, Chen Kangjie called for a pause again.
"Tom, there is a little less smile on your face. Remember, you two are good friends, have a life-long friendship, relax a little, and move more casually, don't be so stiff, OK." Chen Kangjie lay on the car window and said to Tom.
"Sorry, I'll be a little nervous when I play Swarzenegger," Tom nodded in response.
"Don't be so nervous. Don't look at him as big as he is, he won't eat people." Chen Kangjie patted the car door and left.
"The left and right cameras of this car should be turned on at the same time, and then connected through editing. Jedica, what do you think?" Chen Kangjie felt that the picture would still be a little messy, so he proposed a solution, but he was a little unsure. He could only ask the deputy director Jedica who followed behind him.
"This method is good, we can try it out," Jedica replied.
"OK, then let's do it again, everyone is ready." Chen Kangjie and Jeddica returned to the director's seat.
It was much smoother this time. Harry got out of the car with a gift box, opened the rear door, and twisted out his briefcase from it: "They listened to the report at 10 o'clock," Albert nodded.
Harry closed the front door with a call: "See you at 8 o'clock, beg you." After saying that, he was about to walk home, but Albert stopped him.
"Hey, Harry, have you missed something?"
Harry lowered his head and saw what was missing. At this time, Albert raised a ring in his right hand. Harry excitedly put down his hand and leaned towards the car door and stretched out his left hand to take the ring, "Good brother."
"NG, NG", Chen Kangjie stopped again.
"Arnold, you should have taken the ring with your right hand and using your left hand will affect the visual effect. The lights at the door there can't be turned on, and it's also awkward. You have to do this again." Chen Kangjie bluntly told Swarzenegger that he found.
Then he turned to Russell Carpenter: "Carpenter, I want to ask a question. When Albert raised the ring, can you pass the camera lens through the ring to see his eyes?" This time, Chen Kangjie did not criticize Carpenter, but was completely deliberate.
"I can do it, just adjust the focal length and move the camera position. Also, when my camera is put down, Albert should raise the ring a little higher, at least to the same as his eyes," Carpenter promised and said a solution.
"Tom, did you hear it?" Chen Kangjie's name for actors is a bit messy. Sometimes he calls the characters in the movie, and sometimes he calls the real name of the actor, but it's pretty good, everyone can understand it.
"Okay, director, I understand," Tom gestured to the outside of the car window with an OK gesture.
"Then come again," Chen Kangjie stepped back.
When this period was repeated, Swarzenegger did not make any mistakes. His left hand was changed to his right hand. The light was indeed brighter, and he could basically see his face. Russell Carpenter also keenly passed the camera lens through the ring and looked at Albert's eyes when Albert raised the ring.
"Go back to sleep, good guy." Albert, who had finished his work, drove forward after saying this. At this time, both cameras were aimed at Swarzenegger who had to continue.
After watching his partner drive away, Harry turned around and took a deep breath toward the door.
Here, Chen Kangjie did not arrange for Swarzenegger to pick up the newspaper on the ground. In Chen Kangjie's opinion, it was very dark at this time and it was not so early to deliver the newspaper. He deleted this small plot and let Swarzenegger go directly to the white door.
"OK, OK, thank you everyone. The first game was passed, successful, and turned the scene into the house." Chen Kangjie finally expressed his satisfaction with this scene, thanks to his communication with the actors and staff. Otherwise, according to him, as a rookie, he would never come a few times and never pass.
Chen Kangjie finished speaking, and the staff applauded. Even Fan Wenxuan and Jon Gordon, who came to watch, applauded and came to congratulate him. The others smiled and did the transition work.
"Long, congratulations, the beginning is good," Fan Wenxuan smiled at Chen Kangjie.
"Long, I didn't expect you could really be a director, that's great." Jon Gordon was like putting down a huge rock in his heart.
"Jon, it seems that I was the director, hahaha," Chen Kangjie said happily to Jon Gordon.
Chen Kangjie is still quite proud of Qiao Ao and the first scene can be successfully concluded.
"Director, sorry, I'm missing one prop." At this time, the crew's props trot to Chen Kangjie.
"What's missing?" Chen Kangjie's tone was very kind because he was on the happy camera.
"Family portrait, Harry's family portrait", the prop replied.
"Then let's take a photo now. Mother Costy and daughter Danny are both present. Just use a camera to put one into the photo frame for a minute." Chen Kangjie made an idea casually.
Props lowered their heads and replied weakly: "But we didn't bring a camera."
"Didn't bring a camera, are we going to take a picture here tonight?" At this time, Chen Kangjie also remembered that the first shot inside was a family portrait of the protagonist's family of three. But it was still early, and Chen Kangjie wasted time without thinking. He planned to finish shooting all the indoor parts tonight, so he was a little anxious.
"Ah", at this time, a woman's scream suddenly came from behind a small building opposite Harvey's house. Then, the girl said in horror: "What are you doing, bastard, what are you doing, let me go."
In order to shoot this scene, the crew has done the work of several neighbors around Harvey, asking them to turn off the lights and keep them quiet, so under normal circumstances, this kind of harsh noise will not be made on the scene.
"Brother Qiang, you and Brother Jun go and see what's going on." Chen Kangjie frowned and sent Xiong Ziqiang and Tan Jun who had been around him to check it out.
After a while, Xiong Ziqiang and Tan Jun returned, followed by Samidov, John Jimmy and others, and they were also suppressing two people.
"Don't be so rude to ladies, let her go," Chen Kangjie waved to his bodyguard.
"You bastards and hooligans, why should you catch me? It's so damn, it hurts me so much, bastards."
"Miss Streisan, what's wrong with you? What does it mean to come here?" Chen Kangjie took two steps forward, stood in front of the furious HBO TV reporter Streisan, and said slowly in a deep voice.
"Hmph, we are free from the press and interviews. We almost let Johnny go and return our things to us." Streisan did not give him face because of Chen Kangjie's gentle attitude.
Chapter completed!
