0011 Chapter Sadness
This is Zhou Jing’s first time watching the shooting process of fighting scenes.
The crew has been busy for a long time, and the props team is conducting final inspections of props such as Wiya, cars, etc. to ensure that there will be no accidents during the shooting process.
Zhang Yilong and several other martial arts have been called over, and the action director is telling them the show, while the director is standing aside and does not participate.
At present, the domestic armed forces management basically follows the one from Xiangjiang, especially the "Hang Family Class" and "Hong Family Class" have the greatest influence. The martial arts group exists as a relatively independent department of the crew, and the director basically has no say.
Obviously, the crew in front of me also has this division of labor model.
On the other side, the leading actor of the scene was sitting next to the nanny car, with two assistants standing on the left and right, one holding an umbrella and the other holding a drink. Someone told him about the show and wearing sunglasses, which was so cool.
Zhou Jing knew this male lead, and he is currently the top domestic traffic star. He has just returned to China for a few years to develop. Zhou Jing is not very proud of his acting skills, but his status is there, and he is not good at resources.
Zhou Jing has always despised this strange phenomenon of "singing and acting when good, singing when good". He does not deny that many celebrities do have both singing and acting skills, such as many artists in Xiangjiang, but the performance of more celebrities after crossing the border can only be described as terrible.
Some things should be done by professionals. Just sing well and you have to use your poor acting skills to disgust the audience. Don’t blame so many people for damaging you.
Everything is ready and filming is about to begin.
In fact, this scene is not difficult. The male protagonist fights a group of people on the street, falls down from the second floor and falls on the tables and chairs on the first floor, and is hit by a car... They are the most common fighting scenes in some film and television dramas.
The male lead will definitely not be able to perform this kind of shooting scene in person. At this time, the role of martial arts is reflected. All the action performances are replaced by Wu. The male lead only needs to lie on the ground and show his face in the end.
And Zhang Yilong is today the martial arts substitute of the traffic young actor.
After hanging onto the Wia, the shooting officially began.
Zhou Jing originally thought that the martial arts scenes seen on TV were just actors doing actions and then presented through post-processing. It was not until this time that Zhou Jing realized that he was wrong.
Because every martial arts move is really fighting!
Whether it was kicking the body or picking it up and throwing it on the ground, it was all real shots, without any fraud, and Zhou Jing could hear the muffled sound of the fist hitting the body clearly.
Moreover, every action cannot be finished by shooting it once. When encountering high-demand action guidance, you can take more than a dozen times with just one action.
The martial arts scenes we saw on TV were the effects of these martial arts taking dozens of minutes or even hours to shoot.
As the male lead Wu Die, it is conceivable how much hardship Zhang Yilong has to endure during the filming process. As a bystander, Zhou Jing felt it was in great pain, let alone Wu Die himself.
Especially when shooting the scene of falling from the second floor, Zhou Jing was even more frightened. Although the Wiya was tied to her body, the tables and chairs on the first floor had been specially treated and cracked as soon as they touched, but if the staff in charge of Wiya was accidentally, they would definitely be injured.
To put it bluntly, these martial arts substitutes are making money with their lives!
More than an hour later, the indoor scene was filmed and the crew moved outdoors to prepare to continue shooting outdoor fight scenes.
The most dangerous scene in this scene is the scene where the male protagonist is hit by a car and then rolls down from the roof.
As a martial arts substitute, Zhang Yilong was standing there at this moment, and in front of him, a car was ready to rush over at any time.
"Start!" With the director's order, the shooting began.
With a bang, the driving car hit Zhang Yilong's body. Zhang Yilong's body rolled onto the roof of the car under the influence of the Wia, and then fell heavily.
The body of the fetus has had close contact with the car and cement. Even if Weiya is taking advantage of the shooting, the car hit the "bang" sound but it cannot be fake. Whether it hurts or not, you can tell whether it is painful by yourself.
"No, the grounding posture is not natural enough, this one needs to be reshooted." The action guide looked at the picture in the monitor, shook his head and said.
What else can I do?
Only reshoots.
With another "bang", the car hit Zhang Yilong again, and then fell to the ground hard.
However, this time I still didn't pass the test. The action guide meant that Zhang Yilong's fall was not natural enough.
Then take another shot.
After filming three times in a row, Zhang Yilong failed to make the request for action guidance. The director next to him finally became popular and scolded Zhang Yilong.
"Can you still shoot it? If you can't finish filming this scene today, can you take responsibility? If you can't shoot, replace people, don't waste our time."
"If you can shoot, you will definitely shoot. Give me another chance, and you will definitely shoot well this time." Zhang Yilong didn't care about the dust on his body and quickly said with a smile.
The martial arts director standing next to the director frowned. In the scene just now, the director had already "overwhelmed" the other party's status was indeed greater than that of himself, so he could only endure it.
"When you take a while, you will roll on the ground like this, your hands and feet must do this..." In order to speed up the shooting progress, the movement guide personally stepped forward and demonstrated.
Zhang Yilong nodded while listening.
A few minutes later, the shooting began again.
"Perfect! This one has passed." The martial arts director couldn't help but shout.
This time, Zhang Yilong finally took a picture that satisfies everyone. Zhang Yilong couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and took the opportunity to wipe his sweat.
In just a short while, I was hit by a car four times, and the two boys I just ate were almost spit out.
The fighting scene took more than two hours to end. Zhang Yilong untied the wire on his body, limped to the side, and sat down with difficulty.
"Brother Long, are you okay?" Zhou Jing rushed up and asked with concern.
"Oh, you can open your hands, it hurts." Zhang Yilong said with a grin. It was probably Zhou Jing's hand that touched the place where he was injured.
Looking at Zhang Yilong's body, it was green and purple, and there was no part of his body intact.
"Grass! Do you shoot like this every day?"
"What do you think? Oh, I fuck it, my butt hurts... You think martial arts are easy to do, but my body is just like this, I won't be able to hold on for another three or four years. The wonderful scenes you see are all made with our lives." Zhang Yilong said with a painful expression.
"You can't change the industry? This is too dangerous!"
"I have been doing it for more than ten years. I can't do anything except martial arts. What do you want me to do?" Zhang Yilong said helplessly.
Zhang Yilong didn’t know the dangers of martial arts. After so many years, he had seen many seniors in this industry leave seriously injured, and some even lost their lives. But what can he do?
The filming of Wu Die has ended, and the real body of the male protagonist is also time to appear. The director, martial arts director and other people are all surrounding him. From beginning to end, no one has asked Zhang Yilong about his life or death, and even the water is something Zhou Jing wants to come.
The filming task of the male protagonist is very simple, just lying on the ground and making a painful expression, without even saying the lines, because it can be dubbed later.
With exaggerated expressions and stiff movements, Zhou Jing felt that the other party was simply insulting the word "performance".
It took only more than half an hour before the male protagonist finished the movie he should have made up for.
"Thank you for your hard work, Westbrook, you go and have a rest first. I'll call you before you need to come on stage." The director walked forward with a flattering smile on his face.
"Thank you for your hard work, the photo was good." When the traffic student passed by Zhang Yilong, he suddenly said this coldly, but he never looked at Zhang Yilong throughout the whole process and walked straight to his nanny car.
"Thank you Westbrook," Zhang Yilong said quickly.
"This grandson, why are you pretending to be a big-tailed wolf?" Zhou Jing couldn't help but feel angry. He was a group of snobs and looked down on others!
Zhang Yilong smiled and patted Zhou Jing, "Okay, it's good to be able to say something to you, I'm not angry, why are you angry?"
