Hugo's New Year kicked off amidst a busy schedule. In order to preempt the release date on July 4, "Independence Day" was intensively filmed. After more than four months, Hugo finally started working again, and it was still such a work full of topics and full of attention. The reporters were really excited for a while.
It is worth mentioning that Tom Hanks personally wrote the script and picked up the guide tube himself, "The Unstoppable Miracle" was announced a week after the official launch of "Independence Day". This movie also attracted a lot of attention. Media eyes. Although the film only invested 2.5 million yuan, the cast is quite worth looking forward to.
The movie tells the story of a rock band named "Miracle" in the 1960s that quickly rose from a small town to become a well-known icon in the country, and then disappeared like a meteor. The film adopts a dual protagonist model, telling the story from the perspective of the drummer in the band. He was the last member to join the miracle, but his talents conflicted with the lead singer.
The drummer role is now the newcomer actor Tom Everett Scott (. Everett.) who has mixed in the TV circle, and the lead singer role is played by the glorious keyboardist and guitarist Alfonso Lopez. The highly anticipated heroine is played by Charlize Theron. In addition, Tom himself played the role of the band manager, and it caused many people to discuss that Liv Tyler (. Tyler) also played an important role in the movie-her father was the lead singer of the famous rock band Smith Spaceship Stephen Tyler (Steven. tyler).
The "unstoppable miracle" has also been dubbed by many media as "before sunrise" this year.
However, Hugo did not have time to visit the crew of the "Unstoppable Miracle", because there was almost no break for the filming of "Independence Day".
Hugo was sitting in the fighter pilot’s seat with his helmet and mask scratched on his neck. Standing aside, Sergio pointed to a plastic steering wheel in front of Hugo, “Man, at least you have played nes (red White machine) airplane games or racing games, right?"
Hugo shrugged and said regretfully, "I am not a fan of racing cars."
If you stand outside and look at it, this scene will become very strange. A one-to-one fighter model is placed on an iron frame. Sergio is standing on the wing of the plane and Hugo is sitting. In the cockpit, but the problem is that there is no instrument watch in front of Hugo, just a plastic steering wheel, nothing else.
Such a tin toy looks really ridiculous, just like the kind of airplane toy Hugo played in the children's park when he was a child-they have no way to control it. Or maybe it's the kind of cockpit game model with coin-operated wobbly on the side of the road-but this one just happens to look like an airplane.
On the ground and behind the plane, there is a frontal green background, and nothing else is empty.
Hugo is now shooting the fierce scene of fighters attacking alien spacecraft. This exploratory battle wiped out all the fighters of mankind. Only the male protagonist Steve survived. It can be seen that the battle was fierce, but in fact, Hugo was sitting. Shoot in a toy tin box.
This reminded Hugo of the "Titanic" filming highlights: all of them were filmed in a huge tank at the shipwreck-it can be understood as a dirty swimming pool.
"This is really disappointing, I thought it would be very exciting." Hugo looked at Sergio with a sad expression, which made poor Sergio completely dumbfounded, and asked, "So, what you expect What is it?"
Hugo patted the plastic steering wheel with no touch in front of him, "Man, you at least give me a real racing steering wheel, so I can feel it." Sergio stared at Hugo helplessly, as if Say, "Otherwise?" Hugo smashed his lips, "You know, I filmed'Life and Death Speed' before, and everything was real, including explosions. I could feel the excitement of being a part of the movie. , The whole shooting process is very...er, very real."
In fact, when filming "Life and Death Hour", although no acting skills are needed, Hugo does feel the same, because the whole atmosphere is shot on the spot, and the sense of reality is blown away.
"Hugo, that is the effect that'speed of life and death' hopes to create, but we are not." Sergio chuckled. "We need to create a lot of war scenes and explosions. If we shoot all of them physically, we don't need to spend any money. Not to mention, we need to blow up several Los Angeles."
"I know, I know..." Hugo certainly knows that the most magnificent scene in "Independence Day" is the fall of the city. "But... Forget it, I mean, are all these scenes made with computer special effects? "
The development of Hollywood was a watershed in 1994. Why are there disputes such as "Future Water World" and "Independence Day"? It’s not just the remuneration, it’s not just the cost. The most important thing is that the computer special effects technology gradually matures. The super large scenes that were impossible to make with computers in the past have been realized. The shots that used to cost 10 million to produce now only need Five million can be produced, which directly gave birth to the birth of the super visual effects blockbuster.
"Future Water World" is just a failed experiment. "Toy Story", as an animated cartoon, came out last year and achieved success. It is also based on this reason.
Of course, Hugo knows that in the next ten years, the rapid development of computer visual effects, at this time five million shots can be produced, then it may only need one million-or even 500,000 to complete. This has made comic hero movies popular, and scenes like the "Avengers" can't be done at all now.
"No, we used the actual model for the aircraft..." Sergio pointed to the overall model of the Hugo landline. "As you can see, we built this aircraft completely according to the actual situation. This is The model used by the army. In these fine parts, there are still gaps in the pictures produced by our computer, so real models are needed. However, other than that, we will use computers to make the background of the sky, explosions, and battle scenes. All the green parts in the range will be replaced by computer special effects."
Although the computer special effects at this time have taken shape, they are still not fully mature. This is also the most successful place for "Independence Day". Such amazing special effects were produced in 1996, and even after 15 years, they will not be too far behind. many. Hugo suddenly remembered something: the computer special effects for "Independence Day" have been produced since April last year.
"It's just that all this is boring than I thought." Hugo curled his lips helplessly.
It’s no wonder that Hugo had such an idea. Before that, Hugo had also shot many scenes in the studio, but most of them were shot on the spot, and there are many things like "Schindler's List" and "Schindler's List". "Before sunrise" went directly to Europe to shoot. But now Hugo is trapped in the studio, performing on a green screen, which is really a new experience.
"This is the price of a commercial blockbuster." Sergio shrugged, with a helpless expression on his face, making people laugh. "Go back to business. You will perform according to your own understanding of flying a plane. Remember , There are teammates flying together on both sides of you, and we will instruct you on the'flight' situation through the headset."
This is the shooting of a blockbuster visual effects film. Standing in front of a green screen, there is nothing empty, not even a reference object. This is a lonely job.
Hugo suddenly remembered the off-site footage of Ian McLean (ian.) who played Gandalf in the "Lord of the Rings" series. Because Gandalf had a conversation with the short hobbit, in order to film the huge difference in height , They can’t stand in the same scene to shoot, so every time Gandalf and the Hobbit are together, Gandalf is performing alone, with crutches placed next to them, with photos of the Hobbit pasted on them. Use this method to help Ian's performance, and finally use green screen technology to put the characters in the same scene.
As a result, Ian felt extremely lonely in the middle of the performance, and said helplessly, "Who am I talking to..."
"Independence Day" is really a brand new attempt from beginning to end.
"Huh, great, let's try it out. Let me rehearse first. I'll find the feeling, how about it?" Hugo took a deep breath. Although it felt very difficult, Hugo was also a little excited. The new experience is different from any previous work. This kind of experience is not only fresh, but also quite exciting, giving the whole set a completely different scene.
"Very good!" Sergio also knew Hugo's professionalism, and pointed to the front of Hugo. "The height of the lens will be parallel to your eyes. Take a long shot first." After the explanation, he didn't wait for Hugo. Answering , he jumped down and made an "ok" gesture to Roland who was standing behind the monitor.
Roland picked up the walkie-talkie and said a few words, but found that he didn't get a response, so he shouted, "Hugo!" When Hugo looked at him, he pointed to his walkie-talkie, and Hugo reacted. Wearing the helmet and eye mask, the walkie-talkie is placed in the helmet, so that during the shooting process, the on-site staff can give feedback on the current shooting scene in time and let Hugo perform corresponding performances.
Then Roland heard Hugo's voice from the walkie-talkie, "First rehearsal twice. I am still a little uncomfortable with the green screen. You go through the process first and let me find the feeling, how about it?"
Roland couldn't help but was stunned, not because of Hugo's unfamiliarity, but because of Hugo's frankness. As the most popular actor in the United States, there are not one thousand or eight hundred comments about Hugo's outstanding acting skills. But at this time, Hugo said so honestly that he was not used to the green screen-Roland's walkie-talkie clearly said this Passing a message to every staff around is not only a courage, but also an honesty.
This is Roland's first impression of Hugo after the boot.
"No problem, let's not turn on the camera. Let's walk again." Roland picked up the walkie-talkie and said calmly.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
