This is a scene where the Dragon Squad is renovating at the government military base. It is also one of the few scenes in the entire film that does not involve fighting. It is also used to calm the audience's minds and adjust their emotions.
In the camera, several team members were sitting and resting, while Zhao Xun kept chewing candies in his mouth.
Jiang Luxia next to her glanced at him and asked, "Hey, why do you always like to eat sweets?"
Zhao Xun raised his head and said optimistically, "You see, you have known me for so many years, so you don't know. When I was a child, I was naughty and my mother always beat me. She would give me a piece of candy after she beat me once, so now,
, No matter what the task is, as long as you have candy to eat, everything will be fine.”
Jiang Luxia paused for half a second, then suddenly stretched out her left hand and hit Zhao Xun on his military cap.
Zhao Xun said "Hey", not knowing what was going on, he straightened his hat and said, "Why are you hitting me?"
Jiang Luxia smiled happily and said, "Didn't you say that as long as you eat sweets, it won't hurt?"
"Okay, pass!"
Tang An, who had just finished filming and had been staring at the monitor, nodded with satisfaction and announced that he would continue with the next shot.
"Zhang Ruoyun, Peng Yichang, I'll give you ten minutes to prepare for the next shot."
The first shot of the day is rarely the same. Sometimes even a simple scene will need to be shot twice due to various problems. Tang An was a little surprised that he was in such good condition today.
However, several actors breathed a sigh of relief. Although Tang An had not lost his temper in more than a month, everyone had carefully understood him as the number one director in the Mainland.
Anyway, no matter what sources of information are collected, overall, Tang An is not a very kind director.
In other words, there is no such kind of director at all. No matter how good-tempered he is, it is scary enough to get angry.
Facing Tang An, of course they could make no mistakes without making any mistakes, not to mention that Tang An lost his temper inexplicably early in the morning, which made it clear that he was in a bad mood, which made the actors even more nervous and did not dare to make mistakes.
The filming continued, and then came the scenes between Zhang Ruoyun and Peng Yichang.
Zhang Ruoyun sat on the bed behind the truck, leaning against the side, with one leg dangling slightly.
"Do you know that Luo Xing and I still have a game to play?"
Zhang Ruoyun was chewing gum in her mouth, looking like she needed a beating.
"I know." Peng Yichang replied with two words without looking back, but then said, "You want to compete for admission to the Venezuelan Special Forces Sniper Training Camp. There is only one spot in the entire Jiaolong."
"What a pity." Zhang Ruoyun sighed slightly, "I didn't have the chance to compete with him. He is the best sniper I have ever seen."
Hearing Zhang Ruoyun praise his partner and good brother, Peng Yichang turned around and looked at him.
Zhang Ruoyun asked, "Have you been like this before?"
"How about it?"
"I'm nervous and my ability to withstand stress is too poor. You can't dodge bullets on the battlefield. This lesson is given to you by Brother Suan. Remember to pay the tuition next time."
Scenes of the tragic scenes on the battlefield suddenly flashed through Peng Yichang's mind, and his face felt a little uncomfortable, but he still stubbornly turned his head and turned his back to Zhang Ruoyun.
"Click, do it again!"
"Zhang Ruoyun, be careful not to act casually. You are a soldier. No matter what your character is, you are a soldier first, and then other characters."
"Keep your role firmly in mind and integrate it into every action. A soldier must behave like a soldier. Even if he is trying to be cool, he cannot act like a domineering president. He who pulls a few strings cannot act like a gangster."
After mentioning the points, the shooting continued.
It was impossible to take any shot at once, and this time it took five consecutive shots to meet Tang An's requirements.
Looking at the clip just now in front of the monitor, Zhang Ruoyun's performance is similar to the original version, but their respective images are slightly different.
Peng Yichang's performance is better than that of the original version. His appearance is suitable for this kind of role, and he is obviously younger.
However, Peng Yichang is younger and cuter. I am afraid that this pair of CPs will not run away. When the time comes, some female video websites and forums on the Internet will probably have some fan fiction written by rotten girls as before.
Sure enough, you have a rotten look at people!
"Makeup artist, please touch up Zhao Xun's makeup."
At the end of November, filming was still going on, and the crew had been in Africa for a month and a half.
The progress is still within the plan and there is no delay, which is one of the few good news.
In war movies, it is common for both actors and crew to be injured.
All the actors were injured, but fortunately they were all minor injuries, so they could just do what they had to do, and they wouldn't have to take a photo and post it on Weibo, which would make it miserable.
Several employees in the explosion team were also injured. The most serious one was injured in the thigh because he failed to control the explosion range during the experiment.
There were a lot of things, but I was lucky that there were no irreparable injuries.
The crew moved to a village to shoot a war scene where the rebels were stationed.
The next scene is the stone sacrifice scene, which took at least an hour just to put on makeup.
After putting on the makeup, Tang An touched it and found that it was very realistic. Half of his face was punched through and the flesh was bloody. It was not like an ordinary horror movie that just makes it disgusting and then ends.
This kind of makeup is not difficult. First, wax the skin, cover the edges, apply vermilion oil, then smooth out the color, then apply brown eye shadow on the edges, draw a few lines with black eyeliner in the middle, then highlight the edges, apply some BB, and add some plasma for the final details
Adjust it.
Any assistant with some ability can do this, and it will be as scary as it needs to be.
Now Zhao Xun's makeup is not disgusting, it looks more real. Tang An touched the smashed half of his face with his hand, and a large piece of rotten flesh felt like it was about to fall off.
The cut wound on the neck is also very real. The first requirement for all the special effects makeup in the film is to be real. We don’t want a horror movie to be disgusting and scary.
The preparations are complete and the shooting will begin in five minutes.
Zhao Xun, who had been punched through half of his face and cut his neck, was covered in blood. He was leaning against the wall weakly. His eyes gradually lost their energy. Only his eyelashes were still beating slightly, and his eyelids twitched unconsciously from time to time.
Jiang Luxia ran over and knelt in front of him. She was stunned for a moment when she looked at the blood spurting out from her neck, and then immediately covered the bleeding wound with her hands.
"It's okay stone, it's okay, it's okay"
After realizing that he covered his left side with his right side, Zhao Xun's entire neck was cut open, and his hands were unable to stop the blood from pouring out.
Zhao Xun's mouth was also half broken. He opened it slightly and struggled to spit out a few words.
"It hurts so much"
Jiang Luxia's eyes were red and her face was helpless. She suddenly remembered something and quickly took out a candy from her pocket. She kept shouting "eat candy, eat candy".
But I was so anxious that I didn't tear off the wrapping paper.
"ah!"
Jiang Luxia growled and hurriedly tore off the wrapping paper.
However, just as he stuffed the candy into Zhao Xun's half-rotten mouth, Zhao Xun had already breathed his last breath, and his head fell weakly on Jiang Luxia's shoulder.
Jiang Luxia held Zhao Xun's head and cried loudly.
"Stone!!!"
"Okay! Pass!"
In front of the monitor, Tang An blinked several times before announcing that it was complete.
The scene just now was very bloody, and the same bloody scenes are everywhere in "Operation Red Sea".
But for these similar plots, the audience will not feel disgusted, but more sad and moved.
After all, no one wants to go to the cinema to watch a movie that makes them unable to eat. There are so many bloody horror movies in the world, how many of them can be a box office hit?
