Ace Hollywood

The Daily Wellington story didn't make waves in Los Angeles and the U.S., with the exception of Daniel's fans who might have paid attention to the uninspiring coverage of the conservative New Zealand newspaper.

But Tasia - the editor-in-chief of the Daily News is already satisfied, they have done some research, the newspapers that published the interviews have received more praise, and even conservative readers are happy to see their cherished country praised by others - especially A popular Hollywood star.

While Peter Jackson and Francis cement their friendship with Tasia, Daniel must go into routine shooting.

Legolas uses green screen technology only this time, the rest, including standing with the dwarves, is done through many other techniques, such as long and short shots, or only shooting the upper body, the dwarf actor is kneeling, you know the current Compared with various advanced technologies later, green screen technology is simply insignificant, but the manpower, material resources and budget it consumes are still very considerable. And Peter is an excellent producer who tries to control the budget and unnecessary expenses.

Daniel is not familiar with green screen technology, but it does not sound particularly complicated. Simply put, they use a uniform background color, and then cut out the characters in post-production and place them in suitable positions, which allows the actual Characters and special effects are perfectly matched - if done right.

For example, in this scene of Daniel, he needs to jump up and down on the mammoth, and he has to shoot arrows at the same time - everything has to pretend that there is a prehistoric mammoth at his feet.

It's very dark, although every student who graduates from the performance department will take this class, but the actual shooting is still very difficult.

Besides, he also had to hang Wia.

Those flying movements all depend on Weiya.

"Everything is in place?"

Shooting in the studio is much smaller than outside, with several cameras in place at the same time, and Lesnar is still in charge of the most important one, close-up shots—mostly the result of his equipment in the end.

"All departments, Action!"

Daniel clenched his longbow tightly, and heard Aragorn's voice in his ears.

"Legolas!"

This is the horn of the Legolas moment.

Daniel turned around quickly, his chin was too high, and his eyes were fixed on the front. There was an incomparably huge mammoth, which was ravaging the battle team of Gondor warriors.

Lesnar pushed the camera closer and gave a close-up. There was nothing in the original idea, only a full-body picture, but he saw Daniel's facial expressions and eyes.

So handsome!

If Legolas is in charge of coaching, then such a scene cannot be missed.

Daniel's delicate face has smooth lines and an excellent angle. The firmness and confidence in his eyes are convincing. His blond hair is lifted a little under the slight blow of the air duct.

It's like a painting!

Lesnar sighed.

Peter didn't know when to stand beside him, looked at the picture on the small screen, and nodded involuntarily.

"It's no wonder that there is a genie incident." Lesnar said with a smile.

After this scene was filmed, Peter had a look at the footage from each camera. If it wasn't enough, he needed to take some more shots, but fortunately, everyone cooperated well.

"Prepare for the next scene."

The staff immediately pushed a slope-like thing, and Daniel stood on it a little wobbly. It was an elastic material.

This is a picture that simulates him jumping on top of the ivory. The mammoth shook his ivory, trying to shake the elf reptile on it, but Legolas didn't move.

Only a few panoramas are needed here, because Legolas is too small compared to the mammoth, and even its ivory, and if you can't get the ivory and mammoth into the mirror, you lose the meaning of standing on it - thrilling and exciting visual experience.

Daniel, who was filming shaking scenes in front of the green screen for the first time, was a little uncomfortable, his face and body were a little tense.

"Oh, sorry, I always feel a little worried."

"It's normal, Danny, I've seen actors who have difficulty standing up." The film's action director reassured Daniel, "You'll be fine, you see, you are strong and agile, you just need to get used to it, Get over your worries."

I have to say that this is a very strategic and experienced action guide.

Daniel bounced back and forth on the **** and bounced back and forth on the net. It took 15 minutes to get used to it before he exhaled and made an OK gesture to Peter.

Peter nodded at him, he wouldn't blame him, because Daniel's performance had saved him a lot of unexpected film.

"All departments are ready." The assistant director saw Peter nod, then waved and shouted, "Action!"

Daniel felt much more relaxed this time. He even had the energy to control his micro-expressions and small movements, opening or squinting his eyes as he swayed, and controlling the tension of his muscles according to the up and down range.

Passed perfectly.

Peter gave Daniel a thumbs up, praising him for his quick adjustment and adaptation.

"He's a talented young man."

"Old guy, you seem to appreciate him more and more." Peter teased Lesnie.

"Because seeing him is like seeing me when I was young."

"It's a little cold in the studio, or is it because of your jokes?"

"Director, please stay away from the photographer."

Daniel began to prepare for the next scene, such that one shot at a time, all the still standing shots were filmed. The director announced to take a break. They had been working continuously for four hours, and it had been six hours since Daniel started putting on makeup. UU reading www.uukanshu. com

He was a little out of strength.

Andy handed him a dairy drink. A lot of expensive filming had to rely on these things to supplement his physical strength, otherwise he would not be able to survive at all. As for possible side effects, I have to wait until later to make up for it.

Wia was transferred, and Daniel's really energy-intensive shooting was still to come. He needed to fly around on the body of the mammoth like a rock climber.

"Daniel, are you okay?"

"No problem." Peter gave Daniel a full two-hour break. The rest of the crew were eating lunch, but Daniel couldn't. He would be hanged by Weiya for several hours. If he eats, there will be some embarrassment. .

Starvation and a lot of physical exertion, at this time, ordinary people can feel that acting is not an easy job.

Daniel is very young, so the fatigue of the morning has recovered.

He also played Bruce Lee a few times while the crew outfitted him with Wia and protective gear.

"Let Daniel try the feeling first." After Peter finished talking to the staff manipulating Wia, Daniel found that his feet were off the ground, and his whole body was a little weightless. He tried to make some poses, which was a bit of a struggle, but no problem.

Weiya is mainly about some flying movements. The posture is important, and the acting skills do not need to be considered. For example, flying from the ivory to the thigh, and then climbing from the thigh to the butt, who will pay attention to your eyes.

Daniel got used to it for half an hour this time, and then he signaled to everyone.

The warm-up is over.
