Chapter 145： watch movie (1/2)
In the slums of Soweto, in front of a relatively empty and large metal house, the crew was busy on the mud, the set engineer Gordon ’s ears placed some debris trees, and the blasting stunt team arranged explosives around the many metal houses To prepare for the explosive shot of ”Vigus maneuvering the army through the army”. (Reading network)
”Wait later I want those metal houses to fall apart, the canopy to pick up, and then a mushroom cloud, the smoke begins to diffuse ...” Wang Yang in shirt and trousers looked at the metal house over there, carefully explaining what he wanted effect. Wendy Lusco, the chief acrobat next to him, nodded from time to time. When he was finished, he said, ”OK, I understand, no problem.” Wang Yang patted his shoulder with satisfaction.
Wendy Lusco walked to the Tin House, directing his stunt team. Wang Yang looked around, and Donny sat in a folding chair not far away to watch the script, and photographers such as Vale and Harry discussed the shooting. The actors who played soldiers walked under the guidance of assistant directors ... ”He can go to any job, but he sees the crew blocking the periphery from far away. Between the patrols of a bodyguard, there are five or six black children under seven standing there. Watching curiously.
Looking at the immature faces, Wang Yang walked to Downey's side and picked up a pale blue canvas bag, and walked over to the children. When he saw him coming, the children looked at each other in suspense and surprise. Wang Yang took out some candy from the bag and gave it to them with a smile, saying, ”Hey, these toffees are delicious, try it! I hope you will like it. Can you understand what I am saying? ”
In South Africa, there are official languages such as Zulu, English, Afrikaans, and so on. There are countless dialects in the slums, but the children nodded. Understand English.
”Well, there are ...” Wang Yang pulled out of his bag again, haha, and magically took out a lot of animal dolls, mammoths, squirrels, saber-toothed tigers ... ”all in” Ice Age ” ”The role model” he laughed: ”Hold, some cute animals.”
”Ice Age” has now been fully produced and edited, and the final dubbing work has been completed. The release date has also been set. It will be released in North America on May 10 next year to lead the flame film's 02 summer vacation. This animation is still not favored by the market and the media. Except for Pixar, Disney and DreamWorks animation companies, Fox and Sony are frustrated. What can Blue Sky Studio do?
However, the flame film ignored the sound of splashing cold water. The promotion of ”Ice Age” is proceeding in an orderly manner. Putting these toy models on the market is one of them. The distribution department is also discussing the possibility of cooperation with McDonald ’s. For example, get a ”” Ice Age ”family package” and the like.
The children took the sweets and toys. When the first boy about six years old tore the sugar paper and put the toffee in his mouth, the children were ”SH!” Di cheered, tearing open the sugar and eating it, and gave Kaka laughter.
”It's all for you.” Wang Yang grabbed all the sugar in the canvas bag and delivered it, and the children followed with joy and tucked into the pockets of worn clothes on his body. ”He looked at the children with a smile and smiled. Go back to the crew. At this time, the first sugar-eating boy suddenly smiled and asked, ”Sir, what are you doing? ”
His face was a little dirty, with big round, black-and-white eyes. His eyes were full of curiosity. Wang Yang stooped and touched the little boy's fluffy hair with a smile, saying: ”Director. I ’m Yang, what ’s your name? What is your name? ”
”My name is Sodo!” The little boy shouted with a smile, and several other children answered with a smile: ”My name is Sau.”, ”Ai lìya!” Sodo looked at the crew over there curiously. Why are there so many people, with those big cars and planes? ”He looked up at Wang Yang and asked,” Is the director doing well? ” ”
”Well, that's the director, who made the movie.” Wang Yang stunned slightly, how to explain to the children what the director is? I used to think that the projectionist was the director ... He didn't make a sip and tried to say: ”I'm the director of a movie, I have to teach everything ..., ... a little girl named Ai Liya who is dressed in blue Blinking in doubt, he interjected and asked, ”What is a movie? ”
Sodo also said curiously: ”Yeah, what is a movie?” Saou and several other children also asked this question while eating sugar.
”Have you not watched a movie?” Wang Yang frowned, and saw the children shaking their heads and saying, ”No.” Ai Lìya asked again: ”What is a movie?” He was a little silent. What is a movie? He did n’t know if there was a movie theater in Soweto. There were many people who had a good life. They had cars, TVs, computers and mobile phones: there were asphalt roads in towns and shopping malls.
But the real slums here, such as this area, the bumpy dirt roads, are all iron hut. There may be only one electrical appliance in the house, that is, a light bulb, or no light bulb. These children are only ten kilometers away from the prosperous city center of Johannesburg, but have not even seen a movie.
Wang Yang looked at the children's curious eyes and shook his head with a smile. He said, ”What is a movie? Sorry, I can't answer.” He touched Ai Liya's head and said, ”You will know only if you have done it. But I can say that the movie is a beautiful Taobao women's Tmall Taobao Mall Taobao women's winter coat m thing. ”He smiled and said:” You should watch a movie, every child, everyone Everyone should be able to see that the children in the movie all seem to understand, Ai Lìya still thinking hard; Sodo ripped a pack of toffee, and asked while eating: ”My mother said you are going to explode To our house, isn't it? ”His face was full of doubts, and he didn't understand how to explode. Anyway, it would bang, and then the house could no longer live.
Wang Yang nodded and said, ”Yes, but don't worry, you will live in a better house.”
In order to speed up the filming process, the crew did not choose to build the tin house by themselves ”but directly chose the local people ’s residence. I did not expect that the house that immediately participated in the explosion was Sodo ’s home. Of course, Stephen Mark Comi had already talked to their parents. The compensation is enough to build a small one-storey brick building. They have already removed the house from the house and squeezed it to the relatives' house nearby. Using a large bulldozer to directly crush the house, burn down the house with illegal breeding, etc., the crew destroyed a lot of metal houses, but the locals did not become hostile, anyway, they vigorously recommend their own homes. Rich compensation.
”Suo Duo!” At this time, a black woman came out of the tin house not far away. She saw the children and Wang Yang standing together and hurried to the night. Seeing her mother, Sodo happily threw the past night. Pointing at Wang Yang, he smiled and said, ”Mom, he gave us good polysaccharides!” Mother Sodo saw the sugar and toys in the children's hands and immediately thanked her with a smile. ”Sir, thank you! Thank you for the things you gave them, and bother your shooting. ”
”It's nothing, they are cute.” Wang Yang smiled and took a toffee from the canvas bag, took out a toffee, and smiled at the children: ”Yes! Actually, I still have one, left for myself to eat. . ”
Ai Lìya, Sodo and others all laughed haha, and after Sodo ’s mother thanked her again and again, she took the children away. Looking at the children who walked a few steps away, listening to Sodo's voice: ”Mom, what is a director? Making a movie?” Wang Yang suddenly moved in his heart and shouted to them: ”Hey” guys, interested to see See how the director made the movie? ”
The children turned around happily, and all jumped up with great joy, shouting and replied: ”Okay!” And ”I want to see!” Wang Yang couldn't help but also smiled, beckoning and smiling, ”Come on, then But you must all be obedient! ”
Accompanied by two bodyguards and Ms. Sodo, the children stood a little behind the film crew, looking at the people and things around them curiously. The handsome man in a handsome military uniform came and carried a black machine. Big fat man walking, a weirdo with a green face ... And this man who came over and had a blood cloth tied to his left hand, he laughed and said: ”Hello” children, call uncle! Uncle has sugar for you ”” ”The sugar in my bag!” ? ”
& nb Soldiers more than twenty actors or sleeping or standing, and hidden behind the debris trees. Hearing the ”& nbā” from the amplified microphone, there was a dense ”dada” gunshot, and the bullet shell was thrown to the ground.
These are all prop-guns that fire empty-packed bullets. Naturally they do n’t have any lethality, but they have the sound and light effect of real bullets. This also makes children watching in the distance give up some fear. Be excited. At this time, the soldiers stopped suddenly, and some rolled out a very painful barking sound. In the split-shot footage in the hands of the animators of the special effects team, they were either directly beaten into a pool of flesh by the mecha, or they struggled halfway.
& ut is fine, passed. ”Sodo over there also shouted with a smile:” cut! ”Ai Lìya also shouted:”! ”Wang Yang couldn't help but look back at them, smiled and gave a thumbs up.”
After taking this shot, I came to the most important explosion shot today. The stunt team is all set up, the row of metal houses are all packed with explosives, and behind them are also pipes that produce a lot of gray smoke.
”Everyone is on their own, please leave the safety line, pay attention to safety!” Wang Yang kept talking to the microphone and looked at the surrounding people one by one. After confirming that everyone was in the safe area, he also determined that Five cameras including Lei Fist and Harry-George were ready. He nodded and smiled, ”Okay, there will be a big bang, please hold your ears tightly, a few pis! When entering the countdown, ten ,nine……”
In addition to the working crew, Downey and other actors and children covered their ears with both hands, eyes fixedly looking at the iron house in front. Listening to the countdown coming, Sodo tensed nervously, what is an explosion ...
The bombs of the concubine bombarded the soldiers who were hiding next to the metal house. The missiles were released. The row of metal houses suddenly exploded in a row. The metal sheets were scattered everywhere, and the canopy rose into the sky. A violent flame Scattered, gray smoke enveloped the burning ruins.
