Chapter 163 vulgar

The shabby road was covered with cracks, and the road was covered with weeds, and a rusty sign was erected in the weeds. The military base two miles away!

The sign is located on the south side of the road and opposite to the north. There is a row of trash cans. The trash cans seem to have been cleaned for a long time. Not only are they filled with garbage, but they are not visible outside. They appear to be a bit disgusting gray-black, lying quietly on the edge of the grass on the side of the road.

This is a basically abandoned highway. In the past, not to mention vehicles, there was no one in sight.

However, today the crowds are crowded here. Five or six large trailer trucks and more than a dozen business vehicles are parked on the nearby weeds. Dozens of people are busy around. Some are setting up cameras, some are checking the light, some are setting up the venue, and some are doing final inspections of several green military vehicles.

Murphy stood in the shadow behind a trailer, listening to the information summarized by various departments, and looked at Jessica Chastain standing next to him.

"Relax," he could tell that Jessica Chastain was a little nervous with heavy makeup, "just like you did when you were performing a stage play."

Jessica Chastain nodded and smiled.

Paul Wilson came over, "The departments are ready."

"Well, I get it." Murphy picked up a bottle of water from the high chair next to him, unscrewed and took a big sip, turned around and walked behind a camera, picked up the loudspeaker, and shouted, "Shooting in five minutes!"

The crew entered the final preparations before the filming started.

Jessica Chastain walked to the trash can, and under the command of Paul Wilson, he became familiar with the move again. Several military vehicles also drove to the nearby area. An actor from the Caa was wearing a school uniform and stood on the front.

In this crew, except for Robert Downey Jr. and James Franco, who gradually became famous, there is no actor with a relatively high reputation, and he will not seek actors with a pay of more than 10 million US dollars as he used to do. Murphy would save too much money than the one he used to.

There are also films that are used to make them old and deliberately blurred and require money.

Murphy also gave up this approach. A film must adapt to the development of society. Deliberate blur can indeed inspire the nostalgia of a small number of people, but it will drive more viewers out of the theater. How many people enter the theater want to watch vague and noisy videos?

He didn't know exactly how much the box office of this film was, but he vaguely remembered that the sales of video tapes were much better than the box office.

It has to be said that the video's handling of the screen effects in the past was not in line with the needs of the theater screening market and was more suitable for home videotape viewers.

Therefore, Murphy asked Felli Raschel to use a slightly dim photography style, but rejected those deliberate deeds.

After all, he is not Robert Rodriguez after all. He has no special feelings for films like "G-Royal" type. If he shoots it completely in the style of Robert Rodriguez and invites some well-known actors, the 8 million US dollars will definitely not be enough.

He remembered that "Scary Planet" was released in the first place with Quentin Tarantino's "Evidence of Death". The cost and box office were calculated based on the sum of the two, but the result was no 1+1amp;gt;2, or even 1+1=2.

There is no doubt that Quentin Tarantino's fame and achievements are far greater than Robert Rodriguez, but Quentin Tarantino dragged his back on this film collectively known as "The Suppression Room". "Evidence of Death" has been criticized and has become one of Quentin's few failed works.

The cooperation between the two geniuses came to an end.

Of course, "Scary Planet" is not uncommon, especially when it is released in theaters. Some things must be restrained, especially those that are too disgusting.

Just like "Saw", blood and disgust cannot be equated. The former can resonate with a lot of audiences, while the latter will make most people feel nauseous.

It hasn't been long since 9/11. If this film is to be released on a large scale in theaters, it must conform to the current social environment. Murphy appropriately lowered the scale of the film, especially gave up some disgusting content about the lower body organs of the human body, and instead increased the weight of absurdity and black humor.

In his idea, this is an absurd noir movie in which a beautiful woman and handsome guys go together to kill zombies.

The crew departments were ready, and Jessica Chastain and other actors were also in place. Murphy nodded to the scene record, and the scene record placed the scene record in front of the camera lens.

"The Planet of Terror, the outfield scene, the first scene, the first act, now begins!"

The scene was performed by cross-shooting at 45 degrees. Murphy and photography guide Felix Raschel each operated a camera. Due to the good lighting conditions on the scene, no lighting was used.

Jessica Chastan wrapped her coat and walked slowly forward along the north side of the road. She stared at four-foot high-heeled leather boots, and a short, low-cut tight body shirt close to her hair color. It highlighted the cost of her chest and exposed a snow-white waist. Under her slender waist, there was a short leather skirt that could not be shorter. As her legs moved, the scenery could be vaguely seen.

Such a low-cost production, sexy and hot heroine is one of the main selling points. In the North American film market, although zombie films are a small category, there are also many related films. Why do audiences buy the account of this film?

Zombies are similar, so you have to find a way to kill them and who to kill them.

Sexy and hot strippers kill zombies, of course, different from strong men, and more interesting.

Murphy's camera lens is mainly directed at Jessica Chastan, while Philip Raschel uses a panoramic lens to include both Jessica Chastan and the road next to her.

Several military vehicles suddenly broke into the camera from a distance without slowing down, whizzing past Jessica Chastan. Jessica Chastan seemed to be brought by a vehicle, and her body tilted and fell on the trash can on the roadside. The trash can was immediately overturned, and some debris buried her underneath.

A recording assistant sent down the recording microphone with a pick-up rod just right.

Jessica Chastain, who was lying on the ground, cursed a moment of cursing. When Murphy heard it, he frowned and shouted, "cut!"

The busy crew stopped immediately, and everyone looked at Murphy. Since the director called for a stop, it means that someone must have made a mistake.

"Jesse!" Murphy sat behind the camera and shouted to Jessica Chastain in the trash can, "You are a nightclub stripper now, not a top student at Juilliard. Do you know how strippers will scold people? Not as gentle as you!"

He gave a rough request, "Be vulgar!"

After saying that, Murphy shouted loudly, "Reset the set and start again in ten minutes!"

After throwing away the rotten leaves hanging on her body, Jessica Chastan got up from the ground, rubbed her knee that had just fallen, and quickly walked towards the makeup trailer. Time was limited, so she still had to put on makeup.

While walking, she turned to look at Murphy who was sitting behind the camera and giving instructions. The former gangster director who had been an unknown gangster, had become the controller of the crew invested nearly 10 million US dollars, and was skillfully and orderly directing the crew's operation. The past youth almost disappeared completely.

His growth rate was amazing, as if he was born to adapt to this industry.

Back in the makeup trailer, Jessica Chastain changed into the same outfit at the request of the dressmaker, but the costume seemed to be smaller, and the gullies squeezed out on the chest were deeper and the skin exposed under the leather skirt was also more.

Thinking of the current character setting, looking at her extremely vulgar outfit in the mirror, Jessica Chastain always feels a little sad. Could this be the film career she pursues?

No one paid attention to her, and no one had spiritual communication with her. Everyone here, like every component on the assembly line, rotated tightly and busyly, completing their own part of the work.

The filming started quickly, and after another repetition, the first shot of "Scary Planet" was announced to be completed.

The crew finished the set as fast as possible. Before the sun could turn south, they rushed to the bridge not far ahead. On the bank opposite the bridge, Helena Espora's team had built a wooden barbecue restaurant. The barbecue restaurant mainly consisted of sets and models, so of course it was impossible to enter it to shoot. Murphy just directed people to take some panoramic shots. The scenes in the barbecue restaurant had to be shot in the warehouse in Venice before shooting.

Helena Espora brought people to do the final tidying. Robert Downey Jr. and Carrey Mulligan, who arrived in the morning, entered the makeup trailer and started to put on makeup. An old truck was driven to the wasteland next to the barbecue restaurant by a prop group.

When the venue was almost arranged, Murphy went to the women's makeup trailer. Carey Mulligan had finished makeup and was sitting in front of the mirror in a daze. Jack Watson's female assistant was very eye-catching. Seeing Murphy come in, she whispered and walked out of the makeup trailer.

Carey Mulligan sat without moving, but her eyes were looking at Murphy through the mirror.

"Hi," Murphy walked behind her and greeted her, "What are you thinking?"

Carrey Mulligan just looked at him through the mirror, just like this time, without saying anything.

Murphy frowned, "Dear..."

"I don't want to talk to you!" Carrie Mulligan finally turned his head, and the baby's face was gloomy. "I don't want to listen to you either! I've seen it during this period. You, like Julian Fellows, and my parents, said you were considering me, but in fact you didn't think about my feelings at all!"
Chapter completed!
