Chapter Four hundred and Fourteen.(1/2)
It is said that the action director of "Havoc in Heaven" is brother Cheng Long, and Yi Feiyang has great trust in him.
"Okay, Brother Long, I'm going to work hard for you now. I'll give you half an hour. It's best to design a routine with a strong sense of comedy, okay?"
Cheng Long patted his chest and assured: "No problem, I will definitely handle it!"
Next, Cheng Long began to study the moves with the two martial arts masters. Finally, he came up with a plan.
In order to achieve a realistic effect in the Monkey King's battle with the Giant Spirit God, Cheng Long asked Yi Feiyang to hang in the air and keep flipping, and make various formations with other monkeys. Cheng Long believed that this way of hanging steel wires would match the animation effect.
The resulting martial arts design will be perfect. After Yi Feiyang tried it himself, he thought the effect was good and praised it very much.
Then the filming officially started, but before starting, Yi Feiyang solemnly introduced Cheng Long to Jordan.
Cheng Long was also a fan of Jordan and couldn't help but feel happy when he saw his idol. Jordan also liked the kung fu movies shot by Cheng Long. The two met very happily and soon became old friends who talked about everything.
During this period, Jordan also learned from Cheng Long the moves that would be filmed later. However, learning Chinese kung fu is much more difficult than learning to play basketball. In Jordan's words, "God, I feel like I have to have three heads and six arms."
, yes, although I can score a goal, I can't do the damn martial arts moves!"
Brother Cheng Long was very patient with Jordan, a "dumb apprentice". Finally, regarding Jordan's situation, Cheng Long suddenly said to him: "Dan, just think of the hammer in your hand as the basketball you are familiar with."
.Yes, it’s the feeling of playing with a ball! If you feel comfortable with it, treat it as a part of your body!”
After getting some advice from Cheng Long, Jordan's hammer moves really improved by leaps and bounds. He soon reached a satisfactory level.
At this time, the filming of this scene officially started.
For this scene, Cheng Long, as the martial arts instructor, racked his brains, while Yi Feiyang and Jordan, as the leading actors, suffered a lot.
Yi Feiyang hung on the wire for more than 3 hours, and many of the shots were shot from above with a crane. In addition to the high requirements for the leading actor, other extras also received martial arts training under the arrangement of the crew before filming.
It can be said that this scene is not a pure martial arts scene, but the martial arts scene is very heavy, and the design must express the word "skill". The Monkey King's skill is in sharp contrast with the clumsiness of the Giant Spirit God, and then there is a very subtle feeling in the fight.
comedy effect.
After watching the sample film, Yi Feiyang, the lead actor and director, couldn't help but applaud and praise. In his opinion, this first action scene was brilliant, and at least it was a good start for the rest.
…
Time passes quickly.
In the past few days, the scenes filmed by the crew in Huaguo Mountain have reached the most lively part.
The Monkey King, played by Yi Feiyang, was deceived by Taibaijin and went to heaven to become the butcher of the horse. When he found out that he was just a petty official looking after the horses, the Monkey King made a big fuss in the Royal Horse Prison. He returned to Huaguo Mountain and claimed to be Qi.
The Great Sage of Heaven; when Heaven's plan failed, they tried another plan and sent someone to confer him the title of Great Sage Equal of Heaven, and then appointed him to take care of the Peach Garden. The Monkey King was in the Peach Garden to take care of the fairy peaches, and happened to meet the Queen Mother having a peach banquet. He invited gods from all walks of life.
However, he did not have the status of the Monkey King. In anger, the Monkey King secretly ate the flat peaches and then made a big fuss about the peach festival, causing the Heavenly Palace to be filled with smoke and smoke. The Jade Emperor couldn't bear it anymore, so he sent heavenly soldiers and generals to capture the beauty.
Monkey King. So the story of a big commotion in the Heavenly Palace begins.
The filming of the movie went smoothly, and Yi Feiyang's performance was also lifelike and showed his true colors. Especially in Yi Feiyang's view, his previous choice was absolutely right. No one except himself could play a role like the Monkey King to his liking.
After all, the only one who can understand the image of the Monkey King in his heart is himself.
And Yi Feiyang's efforts are also visible to everyone. Many people previously suspected that this talented director who is used to being a director will not be able to endure the hardships, and may voluntarily resign from the male lead in a few days, but Yi Feiyang's persistence and hard work
, but they were shocked, especially Yi Feiyang's impeccable performance of the role, which made them admire his constantly improving acting skills.
In a sense, Yi Feiyang has risen directly from director to actor, and he can definitely be called a real actor and a great star.
…
On this day, the filming of "Havoc in Heaven" officially began.
The main content is that King Li Tianwang of Tota followed the orders of the Jade Emperor and led the heavenly soldiers and generals to come down to earth to capture the monster monkey King.
The Monkey King led his descendants to fight the heavenly soldiers and generals who were about to arrive. The front was empty and there was no sound. Then, the sound of chaotic footsteps sounded, and soldiers and generals poured out from the front like a tide. These people were all dressed in shining gold.
wearing armor and holding various weapons, forming a confrontation with the Monkey King's army.
Then the camera pans to the "Heavenly Soldiers" and you can see their expressions and hear their disdain for the monkey's mockery.
In a close-up shot, King Li Tianwang, who is holding a golden pagoda, walks out from the heavenly soldiers. Ren Dahua, who plays this role, shouts majestically: "Too, that monkey! Why don't you just capture it quickly?"
Close-up:
The Monkey King turned the golden hoop in a circle, "Haha, you can surrender if you want me to, but you can ask me about the golden hoop in my hand first!"
"Bold Monkey, I think you won't cry until you see the coffin!" King Li Tian waved his flag, and the heavenly soldiers and generals around him rushed over.
Monkey King: "Children, come on!"
The monkeys and grandchildren also rushed forward.
Long shot:
The two groups of men and horses collided together like a tidal wave, and the soldiers came and went, fighting fiercely.
Close-up shot, the Monkey King plucks out his hair, blows, and creates dozens of incarnations, entangling several powerful heavenly soldiers and generals. Then he raises his golden cudgel and strikes King Li Tianwang with one blow!
But at this time, the third prince Nezha, as the pioneer officer, took action!
The Monkey King fiercely fights the Third Prince, and a fierce battle is about to begin!
…
During the temporary break.
"The next set of shots is about to start shooting, take your time, yes. Bao'er, the third prince Nezha you play should be sharper... What I want is sharpness. It's not about dressing up. Well, this look is very good. In fact, I am very
I want you to wear a red bellyband!" Yi Feiyang said, looking at Baoer's style.
Qiankun Circle, Huntian Ling, stepping on the hot wheel!
Bao'er was wearing a very elegant red costume, standing on the plastic Hot Wheels, playing with the red tassel gun. "Watch the move, monster monkey!" He poked and poked at Yi Feiyang, having fun.
Very happy.
"Bruce, are the Hot Wheels under her feet too fake? Look, the plastic is not even shiny." Yi Feiyang pointed to the two cheap Hot Wheels.
"I'm afraid it will be difficult to shoot if I switch to metal. The weight is too heavy and Bao'er can't bear it." Bruce explained. "As for the gloss, I will ask the prop staff to spray some fluorescent powder on it later. Yes, that's it.
It will shine as soon as it comes!”
"What a great idea. Besides, her hairstyle is not good enough. Look, there are two hairpins on both sides of her head. She looks like a Teletubbies!"
"This...I made it based on the shape in the mainland cartoon "Nezha Hao Hai"." Bruce didn't understand. He had just checked the information before making it. What was his mistake?
"I mean, that cartoon was for children, and Nezha was only seven or eight years old. Now we are filming a movie. This hairstyle is too childish... In this way, if you look at us eight years old,
The sixth version of the TV series. Although Nezha's appearance in it is not good enough, it is much more exciting. Just follow that!"
"Okay, let me change it!"
Here, Yi Feiyang and the special effects makeup artist Bruce finished communicating. Yi Feiyang turned around and asked Fat Jack: "Jack, we have almost finished filming the scene in Huaguo Mountain. In a few days, we will shoot the scene in the heaven. Where are you?"
Have you made your choice?"
"It's been done a long time ago. According to your wishes, I found a few ancient building groups. Look, here is the Suzhou Garden, this is the Forbidden City in Beijing, and here is the Qinhuai River in Nanjing!"
The fat man handed over a large pile of landscape photos for Yi Feiyang to sort through.
Yi Feiyang looked at it briefly and said: "I remember there is a saying that there is heaven above and Suzhou and Hangzhou below, so choose the Suzhou Garden. Well, after the filming of this scene is completed, you can fly there first and decorate it.
for a while, and then shoot by yourself... Remember, we must have a good relationship with the local government. We are filming and need their help. In addition, when setting up the scene, we must pay attention to protecting the environment. We must not destroy other people's places because of filming.
!”
"Haha, I understand, boss, you have told me this many times!" the fat man said with a smile.
"Mainly because I'm afraid you won't remember it!" Yi Feiyang smiled and went over to greet the prop masters, "Pay attention, we'll start filming immediately, and we'll rest for ten minutes at most!"
Ten minutes later, everything was ready.
This scene shows the battle between the Monkey King played by Yi Feiyang and the Third Prince Nezha played by Bao Er.
This fight scene is second only to the fight between the Monkey King and Erlang Shen in the whole play. As a martial arts instructor, Brother Cheng Long also put a lot of thought into designing this scene.
You know, although Brother Cheng Long was born in Kung Fu movies, and he also has a group of Cheng Jiaban, but the action scenes he starred in and filmed before were all modern dramas, either playing policemen or urban heroes, such as Chen Jiaju and Meng Bo.
, and what about Flying Eagle... He has acted in very few costume dramas. In particular, costume action dramas are not his strong point. Therefore, in terms of action design, there is no need to juggle tables, chairs, benches, or jumping up and down, but to use weapons.
You come and go, which creates a problem for him.
But the eldest brother Cheng Long is the eldest brother after all. He has been immersed in action movies for so many years. He can still use the moves that you come and go with. What's more, behind him are the martial arts masters from Hong Kong. Everyone uses their brains together, and soon they will
Designed the fight scene between the Monkey King and Nezha.
Of course, a fighting scene like this needs to be practiced by the martial arts masters first, and then Yi Feiyang and Baoer do it again. Fortunately, Yi Feiyang has practiced martial arts himself, and he has quickly accepted the traditional Chinese stick moves.
.But this is a pain for Bao'er because she, a little girl, has never fought since she was a child, let alone perform moves with a red tassel gun.
Therefore, Baoer was delayed alone, and the fight scene that was originally planned to start shooting in ten minutes was delayed again. Yi Feiyang was helpless about this. After all, God is not as good as God, and many things make you unable to control yourself.
Half an hour later, seeing that Bao'er had almost learned the moves, Yi Feiyang called the photography team to start filming.
Since this fight scene is a battle between gods and demons, it requires flying into the sky and escaping from the earth. Therefore, it is indispensable to have a series of rocks falling apart, trees breaking, and massive explosions.
Yi Feiyang said before that he would never destroy the ecological environment here for the sake of filming. He said so, and he did so. Therefore, the stones and trees that will be blasted are basically props designed by him at a high price, and
Not the actual trees around.
Originally, it was okay to blast some here, since there were so many trees and rocks anyway. No one cared about the deep mountains and wild forests, but Yi Feiyang would rather pay than do so, which made the old village chief and others admire him.
