The Greatest Showman

One Thousand and Eighty-One Opening Problems

One after another, all the crew members of "Gravity" have arrived at the Surrey Photography Base and are ready to shoot.

However, the staff was not in a hurry to turn it on immediately. Before the official start of work, the props team, the photography team, the lighting team, the visual effects team and the director team all gathered together, meeting day and night, round by round. Calculations are made, and preparations for the movie are in full swing.

Not because of Renly's accidental dehydration, but because Alfonso Cuaron came up with a grand opening for a movie that was ready to shoot an unprecedented 18-minute long shot in space:

In a continuous and coherent long shot, panoramas, close-ups, action scenes, etc. are displayed one after another, and various plots are presented simultaneously in a single shot. It is even necessary to combine zero gravity and long shots to combine the story of space. Blended with the special effects of technology; and, flawlessly, seamless, and immersive, showing the vastness and grandeur of the universe.

Needless to say, this was the most difficult sequence of shots in the entire movie, and even one of the most difficult shots in the entire history of cinema. So far, no one has done it - for reference, even in 2017, it is still "no one later", no one can perfectly replicate such a feat, showing the reality and shock of space.

This is Alfonso and the entire technical team. After five years of research, research, thinking, breakthroughs, experiments, and summarization, the final summary results show.

In fact, according to the experience of the previous life, after the "Gravity" really shot and produced the long shot of the opening eighteen minutes, it won the adoration of the entire industry, including countless technical leaders and industry leaders. In one fell swoop, Alfonso's status in the Hollywood industry was established.

The difficulty of such a long lens is evident.

Now, the main staff of the crew are constantly rehearsing and demonstrating, and in the case of one shot to the end, they must ensure that all links are perfect.

In the story, the opening plot is a work mission to repair the space station. Ryan, Alex and another astronaut work in space, checking for problems with the space station's communications system. During repairs, a Russian missile hit an abandoned Sputnik, and the debris set off a knock-on effect that plunged three crew members into crisis.

During the actual shooting, the other astronaut did not appear on the camera, and the production was completely completed with computer special effects, and then dubbed in the later stage to complete all the performances of the character. In other words, the filming fell on Renly and Rooney's shoulders.

In the whole one-shot-to-the-end shooting, every link is crucial. If any small detail goes wrong, they have to overturn it and start over, even if the actor said a wrong line or missed it. One beat, then all the shots will fall short.

Not to mention, it's an eighteen-minute long shot. They spend months figuring out and arranging the shots to prepare for the shot, and days or even weeks after they actually get to work.

This means that the actors have to be involved in the preparation and really be part of the long shot.

However, in the absence of Renly and Rooney, the "Gravity" crew steadily began the final stage of preparations. This does not seem to be a problem for the crew.

What's even more exaggerated is that when Renly and Rooney both appeared at the meeting site in the studio, all the discussion stopped, and people cast a look of astonishment and surprise, as if they saw a monster, let it be. People strongly doubt that in the next second, they will flee directly.

"...Only two tracks are definitely not enough. We need to build at least three more tracks. No, four tracks. The entire camera position is too complicated. The scene management must have a more magnificent perspective, and it is still not enough."

Emmanuel Lubezki, who was speaking, shook his head repeatedly.

With a slight frown, he firmly expressed his dissatisfaction and opinions. As a photographer, he is the director's eyes, transforming all the ideas in the director's mind into movie images. The importance of work is beyond doubt.

At this time, his expression was so focused that his reaction was a few beats slow. After he finished expressing his opinion, he noticed that no one responded, and then he slowly turned his head along the line of sight of everyone and saw it at once. Renly and Rooney standing behind.

"Damn it!"

Emmanuel reflexively cursed out a foul language, in Spanish, not English, more of a subconscious instinct, his eyes widened in astonishment.

The sloppy beard and messy hair looked even more comical at this time, and then he frowned, looked at Alfonso, and asked in Spanish, "What the hell is going on? Why does he Come here? You didn't mention it before! Is he okay? Are you sure he's okay? Really?"

The joy and enthusiasm unique to Spanish burst out incessantly, showing Emmanuel's inner mania and shock vividly.

"I'm pretty sure he's fine. You see, shadows are still visible on the ground."

It wasn't Alfonso who answered out loud, but Renly. The proficient Spanish made Emmanuel's back muscles stiff, but the next moment, Alfonso couldn't help laughing— Shadow, which is also one of the criteria for Westerners to judge ghosts. As for the other staff, in Spanish, they are vague and at a loss.

Amidst the laughter, Emmanuel also reacted. Seeing Alfonso's cheerful smile, he closed his eyes in annoyance and muttered in a low voice. Apparently, he had completely forgotten that Renly's foreign language skills were already well-known. In "Fast & Furious 5", Renly had shown a few simple Spanish sentences before.

Scratching his head vigorously, Emmanuel turned around, stood up generously, and stretched out his right hand toward Renly, "Sorry, I thought that your physical condition still hasn't recovered. So, I didn't expect you visit.” This time, he spoke English, with a less accent than he expected, and he was very fluent.

Seemingly aware of Renly's scrutiny, Emmanuel voluntarily explained, "As a photographer, a deep understanding of the director's ideas is the foundation of our work. Therefore, I must learn how to communicate with the director." Indirectly explained own level of English.

Although Renly didn't say a word, he deciphered more meanings from one look. In one encounter, Emmanuel showed the keenness and depth of being a photographer; of course, as a technical The otaku is direct and straightforward, without the politeness of social occasions, straight and generous.

"Don't worry, my body is fine. After the sleeper woke up, the prince still fell in love with her, didn't he?" Renly also reciprocated, and calmly mentioned his health in English, but the expression was a little...

"Ha ha ha ha."

Rooney couldn't help laughing at the first, and then everyone else burst into laughter. The scene was lively and the atmosphere became a lot more relaxed and happy.

After waking up, Renly realized that after being dehydrated, he slept for a full thirty-six hours. If it wasn't for the doctor's repeated emphasis, Renly's health was not a problem, it was just mental and physical fatigue, and he entered a deep state. In sleep, otherwise, Nathan and Roy are ready to escort Renly to the hospital.

Thirty-six hours, even for Renly, who has always loved sleeping, is unbelievable, and at the same time explains a series of strange behaviors after waking up, all the question marks have found the answer-

Since leaving JFK International Airport in New York, Renly has not eaten for nearly 70 hours. Naturally, he cannot eat solid food immediately, and needs to restore his stomach.

After experiencing the familiar and unfamiliar liquid food, the conversation between Renly and Rooney also collided with many sparks. They needed to further communicate with the director and further improve the characters according to the script and the director's ideas; so they came When I got to the studio, I inadvertently interrupted the meeting, and then the above scene appeared.

To any one of the staff, Renly now looked like... a vampire.

First, he stayed in the light box for nearly eleven hours in an incredible way; then he broke free from the bondage and left the light box; .

Is there a more fitting explanation than a vampire?

Facing a frightened Emmanuel, Renly didn't like to keep the focus on himself, they still had more work to do, and he couldn't wait to be part of the team, so, He took the initiative to change the subject, "What were you discussing just now? The long shot at the opening of the movie?"

Renly and Rooney stepped forward, moved a chair, and joined the circle of people, ready to participate in the discussion.

But Alfonso is still a little worried. After all, Renly has just woken up, and he has only adjusted for a few hours. It doesn't seem like a good idea to start working now, "Renly, are you sure?"

Renly shook his head solemnly, "No, I'm not sure." Alfonso's expression froze in an instant, "But I'm pretty sure, if I continue to lie in bed/on, I may have to Really become a vampire."

puff.

Still unable to hold back the laughter, everyone bowed their heads one after another, as if speaking ill of others behind their backs, and suddenly being exposed by the person involved, it was both ashamed and absurd, and it felt extremely wonderful.

Renly then showed a big smile and nodded towards Alfonso, without further explanation, he returned to the topic, "The opening long shot, then Rooney and I can't be absent, How we stand, move and perform, it's all important, right? I don't want to miss this historic moment."
