"Next is a close-up shot of being stung by a jellyfish, so I made her skin a little redder!" Tang An stood up to explain, and then asked Yang Mi with concern, "How are you, are you okay?"
"It's nothing, it's just starting to hurt!" At this time, Yang Mi couldn't feel any pain anymore, but he still looked at Tang An with some resentment.
"Hurry up, it will disappear soon. Please ask the village chief to buy some good food to reward you tonight!"
"oh!"
Even adding extra meals didn't make Yang Mi happy, but she still climbed into the water tank obediently.
If the conditions are not enough, we can only use this crude method, but it works!
The arms, shoulders, insteps, and exposed skin all over the body should be shot in a close-up, and then it’s the thighs’ turn.
Although it was only the outside of the thigh, it was still inconvenient for Tang An, so he asked Xu Ruoyun to help pinch it.
Maybe it's because the meat on Yang Mi's thigh is relatively strong, but Xu Ruoyun squeezed it hard twice and there was no widespread redness.
"Why don't you try to pull it off?" Tang An suggested.
"Ah... no, it hurts to pull someone!" Yang Mi quickly shook his head.
"Then take a photo?"
"Try it!"
Xu Ruoyun stood a little to the side, found the right position, and slapped him.
It was a little red, but it subsided immediately.
Increase your strength and get another slap from "pia"!
Still not working.
Tang An shook his head, "Use harder!"
Xu Ruoyun glanced at Yang Mi, and with a cruel heart, she gave Yang Mi a hard "pia" and slapped it down hard.
"Ah! It hurts!"
With one palm strike, a large area on the outside of Yang Mi's thigh instantly turned red, and tears welled up in his eyes.
Xu Ruoyun realized that he had dealt a heavy blow and quickly rubbed her, "How is it? Mi Mi is okay!"
"It hurts so much, it's so hot!" Yang Mi had tears in her eyes.
"Okay, stop crying, let me take a look!"
Tang An looked at the red area and shook his head. A large area was completely red, which was not good at all.
"I'll do it, this piece is too fake!"
Tang An walked over, put his hand on the other leg, and squeezed it slightly, causing patches of bright red to appear just right.
So soft and smooth!
"What else are you looking at? Come in quickly!" Tang An patted Yang Mi on the head.
Yang Mi's mind went blank for a moment. He said "Oh" and climbed into the water tank again with a red face.
The last close-up shot was successfully taken, and after checking that it was getting late, Tang An announced that the work was over.
After asking two boys to help pack up the tools, Tang An came to the large pit of more than 100 square meters.
The pit is already full of cobblestones and looks good, but the water needs to be drained.
The village chief's pressurized water well is in the backyard, and the pipe has been connected. Tang An went and tried it, and he could put the water in, but it took a lot of effort. After all, the place is so big.
The next day, the village chief called two people to take turns pumping water. Within an hour, the pit was filled with water.
Tang An poured the blue gong he had prepared into the pool, and soon the entire pool turned blue.
"Wow, what is this, director?" Yang Mi exclaimed from the side.
"Copper sulfate pentahydrate will turn blue when poured into water!" Tang An said.
"It can't be poisonous!"
Xu Ruoyun was worried when he heard the word sulfuric acid.
"It's okay if the concentration doesn't exceed the standard. That's what most swimming pools do!" Tang An smiled slightly and reassured them.
A large rock was placed in the center of the pool, and Yang Mi would perform on it for more than 20 days.
…
"Click!"
"Your hands are too steady. Pay attention to the subtle shaking process. Remember that you are giving yourself stitches!"
What was being filmed was the scene where Yang Sijia climbed onto a rock to sew her own wounds.
Because this scene was too cruel, it was cut when I watched it on the computer, but it was not cut when it was originally released.
As for the unreasonableness of using necklaces and earrings to sew wounds, it doesn’t matter. Which movie can do it completely reasonably?
Don’t forget, this is a horror movie. Can using a thread to sew a needle has the same effect as using an earring and necklace to sew?
What we want is this effect, so that the audience dare not watch it!
The filming continued, and Yang Mi was seen holding the earring in her hand and tremblingly reaching for the wound on her thigh.
After a pause, he dug in from the edge of the hideous wound and let out a painful scream!
"Click!"
"Tighten your thighs and lean back when inserting!"
Of course, it was impossible to actually put stitches on his thigh. Yang Mi's thigh was wrapped with a layer of prop skin, and there was a blood vessel hidden inside, which would break if it was pricked.
"Click!"
"Click!"
…
After ng it 4 times in a row, Tang Anwei was not angry. In fact, it was like this during the past few days of shooting.
Every slightly difficult shot requires Tang An to explain it carefully several times.
"Stretch your legs over here!"
Tang An took the necklace and sat next to Yang Mi. "The most important thing in this scene is the movement of your hands. You have to use your movements to bring the audience into it and make them feel bloody and scared. Every movement must mobilize the audience." The emotions of the audience will change with your movements. I will sew it again and watch carefully."
Tang An lifted her injured left leg and placed it in front of him, "See clearly!"
"Um."
Yang Mi nodded vigorously and watched Tang An's movements intently.
"Remember, there must be a clear pause when you plunge in!"
Tang An explained while demonstrating.
He held half of the earring and pressed the sharp end against the wound.
The thumb and index finger holding the earring trembled slightly.
He gritted his teeth, closed his eyes, paused for less than a second, and then slowly plunged in.
His hands trembled violently, and he paused for less than two seconds.
He grabbed the other end with his right hand and pulled out the earring. His whole arm was tense and he paused for two seconds before continuing to repeat the previous action.
"Are you sure?"
After completing a complete set of actions, Tang An clapped his hands and asked.
"Okay!" Yang Mi nodded.
"How do you feel?"
"...I...it hurts just looking at it."
As Yang Mi spoke, the corner of her mouth twitched, as if what Tang An had sewn just now was really her leg.
"What we want is this effect, which makes the audience feel pain and even cover their eyes and dare not look at it!"
"Okay, practice it twice yourself!"
He spent the entire morning filming this shot. Tang An took the trouble to correct Yang Mi's movements over and over again. It wasn't until 12:30 noon that he finally shot a reasonably satisfactory shot.
"Miss Xu, come and take a look!"
Tang An waved to Xu Ruoyun on the side and handed the monitor to him.
Xu Ruoyun came to the screen, looked at the scene of Yang Mi giving herself stitches, twitched the corner of her mouth, gritted her teeth and closed her eyes involuntarily!
She didn't think it was that scary when she was filming it, because she knew it was fake, but when it actually appeared on the screen, she was still shocked.
Tang An, who had been observing her expression, nodded and called the two boys over again.
"Ah!" Dabao screamed when he saw it halfway. He couldn't help but cover his eyes with his hands and took a few steps back!
"Okay, this is over, let's call it a day and eat!"
The most intuitive thing that determines the quality of a shot is undoubtedly the audience's reaction. The reactions of the three of them just now are enough to prove that this is a qualified shot.
