Chapter 796 You are now Forrest Gump

Next to the small park opposite Savannah City Hall is busy. The crew of "Forrest Gump" is busy here early in the morning. At the beginning of the film, Forrest Gump is sitting on the bus station bench and telling stories to passers-by is here. The crew is arranging the direction of the temporary actors, and Chen Kangjie is observing the surrounding environment.

When Chen Kangjie came here, he seemed to feel that he had walked into the story. The scenery here was very familiar and unfamiliar.

Just now, Chen Kangjie spent 20 minutes to meet with the mayor of Savannah and thanked him for his support for the crew work. The mayor liked Chen Kangjie very much. He said that he would do his best to meet his needs. Before leaving, the mayor asked Chen Kangjie for three autographs, which were for his children. He originally wanted to take a photo with Chen Kangjie, but Chen Kangjie politely declined. Generally speaking, Chen Kangjie was unwilling to take photos with outsiders.

"LONG, the feather you mentioned can only be stunts. We can't throw a feather up and float down like that," Jeddica said standing beside Chen Kangjie.

Their current position is on the grass opposite the bench Tom Hanks is about to sit on.

"I know too, so we first take a picture, then add the special stunts and that feather. This small town is really good." Chen Kangjia spun and looked around.

"LONG, the machine has been set up and we have used our longest boom," Carpenter and Burgess walked behind Chen Kangjie, and Carpenter said.

"Well, that's good. After a while, the camera goes down from the sky and heads over there. The light here is stronger, which is the top part of the church, and then slowly moves to the left. Here you can turn a small circle. You should imagine that there is a feather dancing in the air with the wind. Here you must stay on top of this big tree. The back is rotated to the direction of the library. The lens will be pulled up because the falling feathers will be blown up by the wind. Finally, turn around and slide from the church to the town hall. The ultimate goal is to Forrest Gump's feet, Jedica, when the lens reaches the road. At the time, the arranged extras would come over looking at the newspaper. There was an intersection between the two cars on the left and right. The person paused and walked over. The extras there would just come over just like usual. When the left car passed by, the car on the right drove over, the camera hit the roof, and then looked down at Forrest Gump's feet towards the ground. OK?" Chen Kangjie gave a detailed explanation to the two photographers and deputy directors. Most of the work was done by them. Director Chen Kangjie was a review function.

"Okay, I understand," Capone nodded. He has worked with Chen Kangjie and is more familiar with Chen Kangjie's routines. Jeddica nodded.

"Since it's okay, Jedica, please call Rofoman and the others and prepare to start work to see if the actors are ready," Chen Kangjie walked towards the chair he prepared for him.

Around Chen Kangjie, in addition to his bodyguards maintaining security and preventing non-staff members from getting close to Chen Kangjie, there are also a few spectators.

Niu Qihua and the others were fine in the hotel. They had already visited the sports field of George High School and could barely meet the needs, but Chen Kangjie was working, so they could only join in the fun.

In the distance behind, a large number of citizens were watching the shooting there. They didn't know that it was LONG's shooting. If they knew, the seven or eight police officers arranged by the mayor to maintain public order would probably not be able to stop it. It would be strange if they didn't come to find Chen Kangjie. Now LONG is very well-known in the United States, and its popularity and interest may not be much lower than Michael Jackson.

All staff close to know the director's identity were strictly ordered to keep secrets and would be fired if leaked.

"All staff and actors are in their place. The filming begins immediately. As needed, return to their posts." Jeddica stood on a table with a loudspeaker and shouted loudly. The citizens outside thought he was the director.

After receiving the instructions, everyone began to be busy in an orderly manner and returned to their own position. Tom Hanks, who was still communicating with Robin Wright Pan, was also quickly returned to the bench to sit.

In the first scene, although there is no close-up of him, there is a telescope. When the camera comes down, you must see where he is sitting, otherwise he will suddenly appear and it will appear abrupt.

"Everyone prepares for the first time in Forrest Gump, film it right away." Jeddica looked at Chen Kangjie, nodded when he saw him, and then said, ",,,ACTION".

Chen Kangjie sat in front of the TV screen, inside which was a picture of Carpenter and Burgess sitting on the robotic arm taking pictures and passing them back.

"CUT", Chen Kangjie shouted and stood up and walked under the camera's boom, "Two, your movements need to be more soothing, it's best to be a little poetic. The shooting range just now seems to be a bit too large."

"OK, do it again," Carpenter reached, and waved his hand and asked the staff below to shake him a little higher.

"Preparation, the first and second filming of Forrest Gump, take the place,,,ACTION." After getting an OK gesture from a friend of the card, Jedica shouted again with a loudspeaker. This time he didn't see Chen Kangjie's nod, and Chen Kangjie didn't mind. It's nothing wrong to reduce this.

Chen Kangjie stared at the soft scene on the screen. The scene was already very beautiful, but Chen Kangjie just felt that something was missing, and always felt a little empty, which made people feel uncomfortable.

Chen Kangjia turned his head to the lonely feather on the table. He understood that it was this. There was no protagonist in the picture, and there was no music, because it was something that was easy to dig out people's emotions. The picture without music would give people a sense of loneliness.

If the movie "Forrest Gump" is successful, the music will be of great significance. The whole movie has more than thirty songs from beginning to end. These music are neither dull nor exciting, but it can give people a silent warmth.

This movie still invites Alan Silvestri as the soundtrack, but Chen Kangjie plans to write the piano song "I'm Forrest Forrest Gump" that only appears at the beginning and end. I remember this piece of music almost once after listening to it. The light and elegant melody is like a breeze that blows through your ears, and it also gently brushes through your heart.

If the scene at this time, plus this piano music and the feathers as the protagonist, it would not appear monotonous and deserted, and would definitely make people imagine.

At this time, the picture had been taken down, and the supporting actor had already started to act. On the screen, Chen Kangjie could also see Tom Hanks.

"CUT", Chen Kangjie shouted for a pause again and stood up, "Rofuman, didn't you tell the extra to stop here? Why did he walk directly over? The speed of the vehicle here must also stop."

"Director, I explained it. Maybe everyone is nervous when filming on the first day." Luo Fuman looked unfair.

"Then tell everyone again, start over from where this male extras appeared, and the pedestrians in the distance turned their heads to the camera no matter how they turned around. What's the use of turning around? They can't see clearly, and the audience won't remember them. You can tell them again and ask them to be more professional." Chen Kangjie encountered problems one after another on the first day of shooting.

"OK, director, you have a rest first." Rofoman walked towards the extras with a horn, and he called out the crash of the two cars.

Fifteen minutes later, the shooting continued.

This time it was much smoother. After all, there were no close-ups. As long as the extras' actions were not big mistakes, the progress and quality were in the hands of the photographer. Carpenter and Burgess were both very professional photographers, and Chen Kangjie explained it very clearly to them. This should be no problem.

"OK, the first paragraph is over, prepare for the next paragraph." Chen Kangjie recognized the quality of this paragraph, picked up the feather and walked to Tom Hanks.

"Tom, your hairstyle is really stupid, haha," Chen Kangjie said as he teased Tom Hanks, and then bent down to put the feather on his left foot, but the feather just couldn't be put.

Seeing Chen Kangjie standing upright with an unhappy look, Tom Hanks asked in doubt: "LONG, is there something wrong?"

"Of course not right. Did you bring these shoes yourself or the props gave them to you."

"This is what I brought from home, I've been wearing it for the past two days of running," Tom Hanks said, looking at his shoes, he didn't figure out what was wrong.

"Man, you are Forrest Gump now, not the big star Tom Hanks. Look, your shoes are so new and clean, which is not in line with Forrest Gump's style from afar. Hurry up and put your white Nike shoes in the soil of the park there and wrap them around."

"sorry", Tom Hanks, who understood, stood up stupidly like Forrest Gump, and walked to the side consciously.

"Remember to add some water to the soil, otherwise it will not appear dirty enough." Chen Kangjie added another sentence to Tom Hanks' back.

Hanks didn't reply, and his pace became faster. He just threw Chen Kangjie with his hand and said "OK" gesture.

Chen Kangjie shook his head and smiled. Tom Hanks entered the role very quickly. After he returned from a pair of good sneakers, Chen Kangjie put the feather in his footsteps.

"After you pick it up, you must carefully place it in your favorite book. You are Forrest Gump now. Open the box and I will see if it has been sorted out inside."

"It's all sorted out, you see, in addition to this book, there are socks, table tennis rackets, hats and other things. Do you want to eat one?" Hanks opened the chocolate and handed it to himself.

"I don't like eating candy. If I eat too much, it's bad for my teeth. Thank you, okay, let's start right away." Chen Kangjie waved his hand and walked back.

"Second game starts soon," Chen Kangjie returned to the director's seat and instructed Jeddica.
