Chapter 606
Unity.
A united crew and burst of energy can surprise everyone.
The Young and Dangerous crew can finish a movie in 11 days plus post-production, well Du Caige doesn't have the ability.
But in the middle of January, everyone found out that according to the shooting plan, the remaining shooting tasks can be completed in just six or seven days.
In other words, the goal of completing the shooting before the Spring Festival can be guaranteed to be achieved.
For Du Caige, that means he can go to the Stars and Stripes country in a hurry after the crew is finished, and join Duan Xiaochen to attend the Grammy Gala held in Los Angeles this year.
Then before the Spring Festival, he will also fly to the north, where he will participate in this year's World Fantasy Convention.
"A Song of Ice and Fire" is the most popular novel for the "Best Novel Award" at this year's World Fantasy Convention, and if there is no one, he just dropped by to receive an award.
Although the "World Fantasy Award" is not the most valuable fantasy novel award, it can be regarded as a relatively authoritative award.
If it can be won, it will definitely be a major positive for the upcoming second volume of "A Song of Ice and Fire".
And the "Track Award" is also an appetizing dessert before the Hugo Award and the Nebula Award, but the award time is May, and he may not have time to come to the Stars and Stripes to receive the award.
But the Nebula Award in June, no matter how busy he is, he has to go there. After all, this award is high enough, and after winning it, it will be of great benefit to the sales of the work.
And in the future, with the title of "Nebula Award Winner", it is really a pass to open countless places in the circle.
And when the Hugo Awards are presented in August, he should be able to relax a little bit.
This year's Hugo Awards will be held in Juliet's former home town. Wouldn't it be fun to take Xiao Xu on a trip to win the award by the way.
So in the last few days, Du Caige worked hard, and "The Tyrant on the Set" changed his style for a while and became passionate.
And driven by his passion, the efficiency of the entire crew has become higher.
Several main actors have also maintained an excellent state, and the number of NGs is very small.
And repeatedly praised by Du Caige,
The mentality of the actors has also become more confident, entering a virtuous circle.
Du Caige made preparations when he made the shooting plan before, and put all the scenes where Huo Linger's mentality changed and became more confident to be filmed at the end.
Sure enough, Xu Qingya can enter the play without much guidance now.
By January 21, most of the shots were finished.
In the next few days, there will be a few additional scenes, and then there will be a few scenes in which Du Caige himself made a cameo. He will play the fake martial arts master, the head of Hunyuan Taijimen, and the Internet celebrity old bacon to protect the country.
It is quite difficult to play a 65-year-old comrade, even with the skill of a makeup artist and even if Du Caige's acting skills are not bad.
When Brad Pitt played the elderly Benjamin Button in the classic movie "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button", for realistic effects, the method used was to use 3D scanning technology to reproduce a 3D digital model of Brad Pitt's head . Then, let Pete make many kinds of expressions, and make models of each expression separately, and also make 3D digital models of Barton's head of various ages.
Finally, the 3D digital model of Brad Pitt's head corresponds to the key points of the 3D digital model of Benjamin Button's head.
Du Caige also considered adopting this method.
But for the image of a supporting role, is it worth it?
So he still made preparations.
First, use makeup to act once.
At the same time, during post-production, if I had time, I used the method in "Benjamin Button" to redo Niu Baoguo's head.
If you don't have time by then, let's do it.
Before shooting each scene, the makeup artist had to fiddle with his face for more than 3 hours to achieve the effect of an elderly person.
Fortunately, this time is severe winter, not too hot, not too sweaty.
Otherwise, it would be too cumbersome to have to touch up makeup every once in a while.
Rao is so, these scenes are not easy to shoot.
It's all finished, and it's already January 23.
The whole crew returned to the magic capital, and more than 400 people packed a hotel on the next floor to eat and drink. Of course, Du Caige would not be stingy when it was over.
This meal cost more than 140,000 yuan for the dishes alone, and nearly 80,000 yuan for the drinks. The fastest update mobile terminal:
But this is by no means a waste.
What Du Caige said before the meal was: "Thank you all for your dedication, allowing us to complete the shooting ahead of schedule. Saving so much time will also save a lot of money, and at the same time, it will allow more time for post-production. So let's eat and drink as much as you like today, this is not my treat, the money for today's meal is saved by yourself!"
These words are much more friendly than those directors who feel that they are benevolent when they invite you to a meal.
Du Caige toasted one by one. Of course, he didn't have the amount of alcohol, so he poured some Sprite and pretended to be. It was impossible for everyone to ask him to drink hundreds of glasses of wine, he would drink to death.
When the atmosphere was at its highest, the staff of the production crew began to distribute red envelopes. All the crew members had them, and none of them fell. All of them were big red envelopes.
Some impatiently opened the red envelope and looked at it on the spot, and immediately shouted, "Long live Director Du!"
Without it, this red envelope is really atmospheric.
Ordinary staff members start from 3,000, which is equivalent to a month's salary for an ordinary college student when they first get employed.
Some important positions, or particularly hard positions, can get 5000-6000.
Some people calculate a little, even if the average red envelope is 4,000 per person, and there are 400 people, it will cost 1.6 million in cash.
Doing things with Director Du is refreshing!
It would be even better if the movie could still sell well and make them both famous and fortune!
This finale banquet was not open to the public, but several reporters who had a good relationship with Zhumeng Mutual Entertainment were invited. The fastest update PC ::/
There was no need for hype and no money to buy hot searches. The next day, "Hemingway's new film was completed, and millions of cash were found on the spot" on the hot search.
And Du Caige has quietly boarded the plane to Los Angeles.
"Baba, it feels weird in my ears! I think I'm going deaf!"
Caiwei, who was sitting next to Du Caige, twisted uncomfortably.
"Caiwei, isn't it the first time for you to take a plane? It happens every time you take a plane. This is because of the change in air pressure, the air pressure outside decreases rapidly, and there is a pressure difference between the air pressure outside and the air pressure in our middle ear. , this will make the eardrum of our ear swell outward, causing a feeling of pain. Don't worry, it's alright, the ear will not be deaf!" Du Caige had seen the relevant content before, and then he could use the camera memory to extract it and use it in his daughter. Beep in front of you.
"What is air pressure?"
"There is air everywhere around us, and this air actually exerts pressure on objects, which is air pressure." Du Caige said in a language that children can understand.
"Baba, how can I keep my ears from hurting?"
"You swallow more, stimulate the Eustachian tube to open, and keep the air pressure in the middle ear and outside of the ear balanced, and it won't hurt."
Caiwei swallowed continuously, and sure enough, her ears didn't hurt so much.
She said admiringly, "Baba, you are amazing! My Baba is a superman! He knows everything!"
Du Caige immediately fluttered.
Being adored by his daughter makes him happier than winning a Grammy.
"Haha." Yan Yingzhen sneered from the side.
But when Caiwei turned her head to look at her, she immediately showed a gentle smile: "Yes, Caiwei, your father is very good. From now on, you will go to your father after school every day, and let your father check your homework for you, and then let your father tell you about it. Stories, teach you a lot of knowledge, okay?"
"Okay, okay!" If it wasn't for the seat belt, Caiwei would have jumped up.
Du Caige was speechless.
So don't provoke Mr. Yan.
This woman has become a sword, and she can turn corruption into magic with a single stab. Great, I am Mr. Yan.
This time Du Caige went to Los Angeles, not only to win the award, but also to accompany Duan Xiaochen. After all, women in love need nourishment and watering.
But after Yan Yingzhen found out, she insisted on taking Caiwei with him.
The apparent reason is of course not "I won't let you and Duan Hu live in the two-person world", but "How many times have you met Caiwei since this year? It happened that Caiwei was on vacation. Given her age, I also thought about it. It's time for her to come out and see the outside world, so let's travel together this time. By the way, let the child witness the highlight moment of her father winning important awards. "
Such a strong reason, there is no way to refute it.
