Chapter 646 Sinking

The time has just slipped to September, and the weather has become a little cooler. The shooting of Titanic has entered the last highlight, that is, the shipwreck, which is also the biggest highlight and selling point of the whole play. Even the theme of love has finally sublimated to the extreme, and it has to be said that it is basically a disaster-like ending. The credit.

There are several factors for the shipwreck, one of which is the water tank - a water tank with 5,000,000 gallons (about 19,000,000 liters) is used to photograph the sinking of the Titanic, which can tilt the real model in the water, and there is a huge hydraulic pressure in the tank. The device can make the first-class dining room and the main staircase sink into the water at a speed of 30 centimeters per minute.

The second is to build a hinge device on the stern deck, which can make the stern rise from 0°-90° in a few seconds as an image of the broken hull when it sinks.

Third, there is a device hidden in the lifeboat deck and the main deck that can shoot the sinking and tilt of the model. At the same time, next to the main deck, there is a 50-meter-high crane that can walk on a 120-meter-long track. This crane is not only used as a construction tool when building the model, but also used Lighting and photography, of course, the reason why it can be used in this way is that the main deck is simply arranged according to the film shooting site, and there is a sliding track on it.

At the same time, because of the prophetic foresight, Playboy also knew that in another time and space, when James Cameron was shooting the sinking of the Titanic model, he found that the reality and calculation were wrong, and the water tank was not big enough. This was not big enough that there was no complete space for the model to sink quickly, and the model was made. It's good enough. I don't want some things in our country to cut corners. After the hull is destroyed, it still has good buoyancy. Finally, James Cameron had to order the complete destruction of the model. It is said that even he himself is excited to fight. It seems that he is not only a good worker, but also has a dark desire for destruction. .

In general, Lin Lin, the most important thing is the human factor, including the two scenes before and after the sinking of the Titanic in the Atlantic Ocean: the scene before the sinking is also the beginning of the real high * tide of the film - it involves not only the shocking scene before the sinking, but also the broken and disintegration of the ship. Elephants also include people on the ship who fall because the stern is gradually tilting, sliding down to hundreds of feet, rebounding between the railings, and falling down to the propeller or the super disaster scene in the sea. These are all stunts. The former is a machine stunt, but the latter is related to people.

However, James Cameron didn't do it. Even the latter was later done with a computer. Although he also criticized that the image of the cruise ship sinking into the water in the previous Titanic movies was often elegant, but after shooting, many stuntmen were injured, he finally He also had to compromise, although he still used the computer to make the scene look realistic - "Dangerous actions can be simulated by the computer to minimize the risk." This is the only thing James Cameron can say.

Secondly, it is the shooting after the sinking of the Titanic. In addition to using a remote-controlled submarine across the wreckage in reality and shooting the last complete picture of the sinking of the ship, it is the search for survivors on the sea after the sinking of the ship - this will be the smallest one in the shooting site with 350,000 gallons of seawater. It is not too difficult to shoot in the water tank. The only requirement is that some actors must apply special powder, which is like salt-like crystal powder, which will crystallize after encountering water. They then waxed their clothes and hair to create an effect that looked like they were frozen to death.

Playboy is lucky enough, but James Cameron caused a lot of trouble because of this scene, or it happened when the whole shipwreck began to be filmed.

Playboy's shooting date is September, while Mr. James Cameron's shooting date is a cold January, which is also the coldest time in the United States. Think about it. Lying in the cold and piercing ice water, the temperature outside is the same cold, and you have to stay in the water for several hours. What does it feel like?

The environment is too bad, but James Cameron is also a barbarian and under great pressure. Naturally, the consequence is that many actors have a cold, flu or kidney disease, including the heroine Kate. Winslet, and even some actors withdrew because of this. Of course, some people were unhappy with James Cameron's barbaric behavior, and some people complained. The final result was that this matter hit the actors' union.

The only luck is that the final investigation results of the Screen Actors' Union believed that the whole shooting site was safe and reasonable, and James Cameron was naturally stubborn, and there was no apology in the end. Especially when Titanic won a big victory, he was even more arrogantly that he was strict. The request achieved all that, but although he escaped the disaster, his character was greatly damaged.

The shooting schedule helped the playboy, but the real problem playedboy planned to deal with it with his evil ability - James Cameron finally had to give up the most shocking scene of the sinking predecessor falling from the tilted stern, but he wanted to try it.

Of course, he can't do all the work alone, but he is now the owner of the Chinese Martial Arts Academy with thousands of disciples. In nearly two years, under Zhang Weihao's drill, excellent disciples have become very good masters. They are not ordinary stuntmen.

"Luffy, you have to remember that when your body falls to the crossbar below, your chest and abdomen will exert force, and your body will bounce on it, then hit the side under the boat with your back, then fall down with your strength, and finally fall into the water..." A week ago, Zhang Weihao came over with Luffy and his 200th apprentices. Everyone has been They are all experimenting. Naturally, the playboy came by himself. Although even if others are injured, he can easily treat it, but there is no need to happen, and this kind of thing should naturally be avoided.

Today is the official start of shooting. If it really jumps down from the stern of the Titanic, which has sunk more than half, there are still more than 300 feet, that is, more than 100 meters, it is still terrible. Even if there are protective measures, there are still movements in the air, and it is easy to get injured if you are not careful.

It's not easy to be a stuntman after learning kung fu, especially in this case. Therefore, the playboy also has to let them understand how stuntmen can make the most reasonable use of their bodies to make the most reasonable response to the scene, which can not only meet the director's requirements, but also be hurt. Of course, the acting skills are naturally unnecessary. .

Finally, the height was adjusted to 50 meters. Although it was still dangerous, it was much better. In addition, many places such as the side of the ship below were made of foam plastic, and protective measures were also added in other places. The playboy tried several times in person, but still tried it with the force value of Luffy and others. I felt that it was almost done, so I opened it. Start the official shooting.

Luffy nodded. For nearly two years, he has been the best apprentice in the martial arts school. Zhang Weihao also officially arranged him as a big brother. This position has been vacant before.

Jumping, just like jumping down from the sixth floor. Although the rope behind him is released quickly, it can still support him. When it reaches more than 20 meters, it is the first crossbar. People fall from such a high place and hit it, and it is easy to break their muscles and bones.

Luffy pulled under the rope and hit it. According to the order of the playboy, he spit out the ketchup in his mouth, like blood. Then his chest and abdomen were twisted, and his back hit the side of the boat made of foam plastic, and then his whole body fell directly down like a cannonball. I fell into the water.

From the top to the exposure of the water, there are panoramic cameras and storyboards during this period. Even the water has special shots of shooting scenes after falling into the water, trying to make all this real and perfect. James Cameron was the idea at the beginning. Unfortunately, his people couldn't do it. In the end, he could only use computer stunts, although it was still realistic. However, it's just realistic. It's naturally a few streets away from the real thing. The reaction, the details of the limbs, and even the reaction of clothes and hair, etc., can't be completely imitated.

Luffy is of medium to upper difficulty. Under the traction of the rope, his body has to toss and turn twice in the air, especially the one that hits the crossbar. It is like an American stuntman. Under such a fast situation, his body is soft, and it is impossible for his waist and abdomen to bounce up, and then smash the side of the ship with his back.

At the beginning, the stuntmen here were a little disoperable to playboys to use their own people. When they tried, they knew that it was really not what they could do. However, thinking about those particularly dangerous things, such as banging several times between the side of the boat, and finally falling next to the propeller, were the playboy. The two of them went to battle in person with Zhang Weihao. It was not only the problem of collision between the side of the ship, but also the moment when it landed on the propeller. The propeller still turned. It was not as simple as being injured if it was not a careless thing. Even when the playboy jumped down, everyone screamed. By the way, it was really very dangerous. .

Of course, after completion, it is naturally very good. When I watched it in front of the camera, I was really shocked to the extreme. Playboy has begun to think that although there is no way to make 3D now, he will suggest that the audience who like to watch it will go to see the current simple three-dimensional movie, which will be more perfect.

After the playboy and Luffy finish the stunts, the scene is naturally not played. At this time, it is the turn of the professional actors to play. They will complete the last part of the stuntmen, such as the frightened face in the water after falling into the water, the appearance of struggling when it surfaced, and hitting the deck, spiral When the oars waited for the place, their last miserable scene, the tragic and shocking scene, were all swept over the face, and the expressions appeared one by one. Luffy and others naturally had nothing to do. What's more, even if they could, a boat of people turned into Chinese faces in the end, which was too fierce.
