The Greatest Showman

Chapter 2031: 2031 A slight change in mentality

When Bryce Dallas arrived on set, all the film crews were ready, but the lighting crew was still dimming—

This is the most time-consuming and labor-intensive part of the entire filming process. Even the director has no way to control it. In order to create an ideal shooting environment with the many lighting effects of the scene environment, the lighting engineer needs to go through repeated tests. A little bit of inattention, several hours have passed, including the director and actors, everyone needs to wait patiently.

The famous Italian director Bernardo Berolucci, who once filmed "The Last Emperor", said that the most important thing for a director is to wait for the patience of the lighting engineer.

This is also the reason why major Hollywood film companies always prefer studios when they shoot large-scale production films—because lighting engineers do not need to cooperate with natural lighting, they can completely create a shooting environment through artificial light in the studio, which not only saves time and cost, but also the most important thing. The point is that everything is controllable and relatively stable, and controllability means cost savings, which is far more cost-effective than live-action shooting.

The reason why "Jurassic World" chose to shoot live is not because of Colin Trevorrow's insistence, but because of the series heritage-the original "Jurassic Park" was filmed in Hawaii, and now the sequel starts from here, Universal The film industry is also looking forward to continuing the fine traditions of its predecessors.

On the other hand, it is because the environment and atmosphere of the virgin forest is very difficult to simulate and produce. If all the computer effects are used to create it, the cost is also very high, which is almost the same as the real scene shooting, and even more expensive. Instead, it's better to shoot on the spot.

Bryce nodded skillfully with the on-site staff and greeted "good morning" with a smile. She could clearly notice that the atmosphere of the entire crew was a little lighter, not the exaggerated change of belly laughing or bouncing around. , but the subtle changes in expressions between the conversations, as if full of energy, even the rhythm and intonation of the voice brightened, and even Bryce's footsteps became lighter.

"What's going on? What happened?" Bryce's mouth also curved lightly and said to the makeup artist and stylist team.

"Haha, when Renly arrived on the set just now, he surprised everyone..."

The entire make-up team babbled about the episode that happened not long ago: Renly arrived on the set but did not show up directly, but ran to the sound team, playing a sound effect made for the movie - the army squad was besieging and tyrannizing in the jungle The Tyrannosaurus rex suffered the sound of group destruction.

In the movie, the tyrannical Tyrannosaurus rex successfully concealed its footprints, and unexpectedly crushed a team next to the stream, creating the greatest panic; in reality, the scene and situation of the crew were almost exactly the same. The on-site staff immediately cried with fright.

"You should really see the footage from the scene..."

"...it's just hell."

"Lisa was immediately scared under the table, hahaha, it's so funny."

"Hey, you're not almost incontinent!"

"At the end, when Renly jumped out of the grass, that's the scene... Hahahaha, I was about to have a heart attack, everyone screamed and ran away, haha, the scene was too lively."

The entire makeup team described the scene word by word. Although everyone was frightened, the joy and excitement between the eyebrows and eyes could not be hidden. Also followed the brain supplement, involuntarily breed a kind of envy and yearning:

That must be very interesting!

Bryce also laughed with joy, but the corners of her mouth and eyebrows were a little hesitant, and it seemed that the corners of her mouth were pulled down by a heavy weight.

She couldn't laugh because of Renly, but not because of Renly.

When "Jurassic World" was first formed, the game between Thomas Tour and Renly has hardly been found, and no one has even mentioned it, as if it was just a dream, never A dream that happened; but Bryce could never forget it.

Renly took the initiative to inform Bryce's father Ron Howard of the scandalous conspiracy, which also made the industry director make an exception to intervene in the matter.

Over the years, Bryce has worked hard to avoid being called "Ron Howard's Daughter", hoping that viewers don't think she's taking shortcuts, but instead use her own strength to break out of the world - she thinks Renly can understand , because Renly's hereditary aristocracy had also been concealed for many years; but now it has fallen short.

She knew she shouldn't blame Renly, but she couldn't control her thoughts, and there was still a gap after all.

There were no problems with the subsequent filming, Bryce and Renly continued to work diligently to maintain a cooperative relationship, showing a professional attitude at the work level, but they were not friends after all; then, after three weeks, Renly ended "Interstellar". Going through the "promotional period" and returning to the crew again, Bryce faintly felt that the distance between her and Renly had widened again.

The outstanding box office results of "Interstellar" have once again proved Renly's status as the number one person in Hollywood in just three weeks, and it has maintained absolute strength even on a global scale. Take a look at the UK and China premieres. The grand occasion, that is the unreachable height, instantly widened the sense of alienation between each other to the extreme - even they, when they saw Renly, still couldn't help but have a kind of "that's the real artist". sigh.

The sense of strangeness and distance made Bryce a little uneasy. Before that, there was no sense of unfamiliarity that could be approached, but now it became more and more stiff and stiff, as if an insurmountable gap had been drawn in three weeks. People were awkward, not nervous or scared—or, in a word, awkward, awkward.

Bryce knew it was unnecessary emotion, and Renly had never targeted her, nor had she had to; but she just couldn't control herself. It was as if everyone was talking about Renly at this moment, and Renly's mischief brought everyone closer; but for Bryce, it widened the distance.

Bryce didn't know how to express this subtle emotional change, even to her agent, even to her husband. It seems that they can't understand it.

"The Guard is Here"

Only... a sigh.

"Bryce, what's wrong?" The makeup artist is the most sensitive and can delicately capture the subtle changes in the actor's expression and complexion. "Your complexion doesn't look good."

Bryce retracted her thoughts and smiled, "It's okay, I just didn't sleep well last night." Then, she held her cheeks slightly exaggeratedly and looked left and right, "Is the skin condition very bad? ? God, I can't appear in front of the camera with a heavy make-up, what should I do?" Using this method, he successfully diverted his attention.

"I'll take a look, I'll take a look. Well, it's not a big problem, just tinkering..." Then they started discussing how to maintain it, and finally escaped.

Makeup and styling came to an end quickly, as the entire film took place in one day and all had one look—even though the shooting cycle needed to last nearly three months, they were still one look, which made the stylists There is no place to use it, and more energy is spent on "Lianxi".

Bryce stood up and came to the outside of the temporary dressing room/dressing room. The gaffer was still measuring and dimming the light. Today's sunshine was a little too bright, but it broke the balance that has always been there, and it was not easy to continue the show, so the gaffer needs to An emergency adjustment was made; then Bryce saw Renly not far away.

Ty Simpkins, Nick Robinson and others were around, "...Did they really wait outside the hotel all night? Don't they want to eat? What about sleeping? And, school! You don't have to go to school. Is it?" Simpkins chirped like a sparrow.

Renly didn't get impatient either, but answered earnestly, "Yes, they've been waiting all night; yes, of course they need to eat too, but they can order takeout, you know, pizza always works. ..." Renly answered even the most boring questions.

Obviously, Simpkins is asking about the best news in the "Interstellar" promotional itinerary to satisfy his curiosity; while everyone else is also stretching their ears to express their anticipation.

During the time that Renly was away from the crew to promote around the world, the noise of social networks seemed to have not stopped. Even in Hawaii, far away from the North American continent, the film's strong topical dominance can also be felt - three weeks before its release, The movie theater in Honolulu is also hard to get a ticket, and it seems that everyone can't wait to go into the movie theater to support this work; not to mention the gossip and rumors.

Now that Renly came to the side from above the "news", everyone naturally couldn't easily miss it. Even Bryce had a feeling of "looking up to the artist", not to mention the other members of the crew. As a unique and supreme big name in the entire crew, Renly is indeed special.

In the face of these gossip questions, Renly also rarely showed patience. It seemed that his return to the crew also brought a good mood, allowing him to answer those absurd and funny questions one by one. The scene looked like a fan meeting.

Bryce let out a long breath, clenched her fists secretly and told herself: There's no need to be nervous, it's just Renly. They've worked together before, so it won't matter; now, nothing has changed for Renly, she doesn't need special treatment, she doesn't need to be nervous, she just needs to be herself, a professional actor, and everything will be fine.

Stay professional. Stay professional. Stay professional.

Bryce repeated it three times deep in her heart, letting the irritable and mixed emotions settle down, and then stepped forward, walking in the direction of Renly, showing a polite smile, nodding in greeting .
