"If this scene is not filmed well, I will starve... until early tomorrow morning and continue filming!"
Director Ashley's commanding voice sounded in my ears:
"Are the extras ready? Come on, hurry up... The right time is this afternoon. There is only one hour left. Once it gets dark at 5:30, this scene will have to wait for another ten
Two hours!”
"That, that, that! What about you - put the mobile phone in your hand in the corresponding position. Don't let something go wrong in a moment. The camera will be blurred. Do you think the audience is just like you, they are all fools?"
Not only this scene, but the entire filming of "The Hunger Games Part 1" was tight... Even so, there were still some small mistakes caused by actors, extras, props and other groups of people - and so on, it is necessary to
The directing team is fully investigating...
Being able to correct them one by one before shooting will save you a chance to retake...
"Meng, let's go see if Xia is okay. If she's okay, we can start filming."
The time came to 4:30 in the afternoon, and at Ashley’s command, the recorder hit the board:
"The Hunger Games Part 1, Act 113, Scene 1, Action!"
…
"What will happen to us when we go back?"
"I don't know, I think we should try to forget this experience."
"I don't want to forget."
On the train back to District 12, this was the last conversation between the two people - they were able to survive together in this game where only one person survived. At the last moment of life and death, they adopted a "love strategy", but this was just
Just a strategy…
For Katniss, it was like this - the two were still strangers at that time, and she did this just to survive...
And in District 12, there is Gale waiting for her return...
But is this really the case?
…
The people of District 12 are waiting for the return of the two at the station.
When the two people appeared, cheers and applause rang out in this small shabby station. There was no communication in the original work. Everything was shown from the eyes of the two people and the complicated and awkward relationship between them.
In front of the audience, the "celebrity lovers" held hands and raised their hands high to express their triumphant return to everyone...
Katniss' eyes fell on Gale for the first time, then her sister sitting on Gale's shoulder, and her mother beside her...
At the end of the camera, it fell on President Snow - his emotions and anger were expressionless, leaving only a pair of complicated eyes...
"Click!"
"...Everyone is waiting where they are, no one is allowed to move!"
Almost everyone is worried about this - whether they can pass it depends on the review in the next few minutes...
The whole crew's eyes were either on Ashley or Xia Yu. The one who fell on Ashley was the crew and staff, and the one who fell on Xia Yu was almost the entire cast, including the extras.
…
Ashley looked at her nervously.
Looking at Xia Yu was changeable, their eyes filled with a variety of emotions: admiration, surprise, admiration... more complex, like looking at a monster.
Even the veteran actor who played President Snow looked at Xia Yu with emotion.
There's no way, it's too scary... It's been three months since I joined the cast of "The Hunger Games Part 1", and the number of shooting days was sixty-eight... Under the sixty-eight days of high-intensity shooting, everyone was more or less
If there is a problem, the staff will not talk about it.
All actors, whether they have been in the acting industry for thirty or forty years, or veteran actors who have been in the acting industry for twenty or thirty years... have emotions, or when the details are not in place, after all, this is a science fiction film - but even they
Old actors all make mistakes sometimes...
But during the entire sixty-six days of filming, no one saw Xia Yu make a mistake, even once - the crew and crew were used to it, but the actors couldn't. Who can understand the tension of the entire sixty-six days?
The older ones thought it would be like an outdoor vacation... but ended up getting involved!
The crew and crew also made a bet - after all, the beautiful country does not prohibit it, they are all betting on how many scenes and how many days Xia Yu can continue filming "The Hunger Games Part 1" without being NG.
"The well-known bet?"
Both Ashley and Zhuang Ling had heard about this bet. Even... poor Ashley wanted to place a bet.
It's a pity that as a director, he blatantly participates in the gambling game, which has a very bad impact.
'I can't even bet, why do you?'
Ashley jealously issued an order: Personal gambling capital was not allowed to exceed 30,000 US dollars - it was expressly forbidden to discuss this long-term tug-of-war gambling game within the crew.
In addition to the crew, you can usually talk in other places.
All in all, the final prize money from this gambling game has now accumulated to 2.32 million US dollars.
Among them, the crew members who have experienced the filming of the "Twilight Series" basically passed every day and every scene - and there were more than 20 people who participated in this bet and passed it all. If they won,
, they will share the prize pool together...
So in addition to lamenting Xia Yu's performance, I was also nervous about the final result of this two-month bet...
Even from Ashley's perspective and her trust in Xia Yu's acting, she knew that there was nothing wrong with this scene, but she still checked it several times until five minutes later, her hanging heart dropped three times.
Yue's heart finally fell into her stomach.
The tight seriousness and coldness on her face finally dissipated little by little, and she took the trumpet she had prepared long ago and laughed wildly:
"I announce that "The Hunger Games Part 1" has been completed!"
In an instant, the whole group burst into cheers, shouts, and gestures of celebration...
Among them, the most emotional ones are the new actors, especially Sam Boyd.
He followed it all the way to the end, and even pushed a few drafts in the middle, saying, 'It's obviously just a science fiction movie, but it's more rewarding than any performance in any art movie he's ever participated in!'
For more than a month, he kept a close eye on Xia Yu's performance, breaking his definition of performance again and again... This was the first time he had the idea of cooperating with a certain actor.
He really wants to make a drama or literary film with Xia Yu that has dozens or hundreds of scenes. 'That must be an unprecedented film that makes me... really feel the strength of her performance!'
But soon, with the completion of "The Hunger Games Part 1", his eyes gradually dimmed.
With Xia Yu's current popularity and celebrity status, how could it be possible to collaborate on a movie with him?
Everyone was greeting Xia Yu and Ashley, shaking hands and congratulations - but it was Sam Boyd, who had gone from being tense and high-profile to now quietly withdrawing...
He didn't know that when he turned around, Xia Yu's eyes fell on him.
Thoughtful.
