Where was the Dragon Knight filmed? The background is so beautiful! Who has a link to the background picture? thank you

The Dragon Knight has many grand and spectacular scenes, but it still belongs to the biggest battle of Faldendu, and the best army in Baatar attacked the strong fortress of Walden. This battle decided the end of Eregan's journey and the climax of the story. From the beginning of the war, Eragon and Sifei helped attack the invasion of the evil emperor, which opened the battle between Eragon and Desa. Eragon rode Sifei, while Desa rode a huge monster, stepping on the bodies of soldiers who died in the war, which was part of the sky. There are hundreds of extras and stuntmen fighting on land, which will be input into the computer and then expanded into a magnificent scene, comparable to the battle in the sky; Under the night sky, there is a dramatic decisive battle. With the development of serious conflict, Faldendu has become a testing ground full of destruction and evil justice.

The story tells that Warden Fortress was built in the crater of a remote volcano, with weathered white marble rock walls on the edge of the cliff, which recorded historical sites and built a volcanic wall, extending for a whole mile. Under the supervision of design director Wolfkno, the crew set up the most magnificent film scene in the history of film production. This scene is a complete spectacle, which can't be built by any studio, so after several months of landscape investigation, the crew found an abandoned open pit mine and crater in Hungary, which is close to the Austrian border. "This place is very suitable," Knohl said, because the Fardendu in the script is set in a volcanic area. This huge block can build the scene that the Dragon Knight needs, but first it even needs to open a road to facilitate equipment and personnel to go to the crater. It took 16 weeks to plan, build and decorate the landscape, and an originally desolate open pit mine became a lively community.

Peter Maidan, the second group of light and shadow magic director and action scene expert, has participated in two Superman movies, two Batman movies and four Harry Potter movies. He cooperated with director Steven von Meyer to bring this epic battle back to the big screen. "We want to make this place very real and exciting," said McDonald, who is experienced in this field. In order to make the action scene of the battle have momentum, Madang used 450 extras and stuntmen, every night 10 hours. It was the cold winter, and everyone had been working at low temperature for weeks. This includes the unusually tall Hugas and elves. Many extras who play Hugas must be 6' 6 "or higher, while elves must be shorter than 5'.

Deciding to shoot at night is a great challenge for photography director Hugh Qiang Sen. "This area covers a vast area, and it is difficult to illuminate every corner," Qiang Sen said. He and his team tried their best to set up all the necessary equipment in this huge and barren crater, and they hired a Russian team to take charge of the equipment.

In order to shoot this play, Kimberly designed costumes and weapons different from traditional ones. "I am imagining what weapons will appear in such a special fantasy world?" "Barry said," In this place, Reagan rode a bad army invaded by the "Four Flying" War, so he should not wear more than 25 pounds of weapons. I also don't want the characters to carry a lot of clothes and make them look heavy and dull. I want to be as neat as possible, so I use leather as a weapon. Barry found a well-known shop in London that specializes in designing clothes with leather and ordered these unique accessories.

The second set of filming in Hungary has come to an end, and it is only the first war drama. Director von Mayer, special effects expert Madang and the crew then moved to Pine Forest Studio in England, where there was a huge blue screen to shoot Ed's Riding a Horse and Thinking about Flying and robert carlyle's Desa Riding a Flying Beast (shooting a real person and then combining a computer with a dragon). Directors and designers hope that these flight scenes, as Madang said, "The more flexible the movements, the bigger the better. This should be as exciting as a roller coaster. 」。

Part of the actor rides on a saddle controlled by computer and moves hydraulically. According to the frequency and amplitude, the saddle part is then synthesized by computer animation. Ed Spieler also "really" experienced all dragon movements such as flying dragon, gliding and spinning. "Ed acted naturally," Madang said. "He wants to fly in the air and do his best." And before Ed came to power, the director showed him some shooting clips in this respect for his reference. "The Dragon Knight was the first movie to ride a dragon," said Von Mayer. "It's interesting to shoot these flight scenes. In order to present the reality of the body and at the same time have fantastic elements, we have made a lot of efforts. We want to ride a dragon like a fighter plane, and the audience can admire the surprise. 」

Many of these eye-opening scenes are from Weita Digital Company in New Zealand, and their most famous work is Adventure of King Kong Robot in The Lord of the Rings Trilogy. In the part of Faldendo, Vita decided to give Sifei more room to play. "He flies more naturally here because he is old," said george murphy, director of visual effects at Vita. "We have also made Sifei more imposing and expressive, so that he can play a more decisive role in the war. 」

"Our main design for Sifei is on the body," said Guy William, one of Weita's visual effects directors. "We made his wings have many different expressions in the war, which is not found in other scenes of the film. William and Murphy also prepared the dragon's fighting posture and movements, armed to the teeth. In order to show the scene and environment of the climax of the war, William's biggest goal is to make the audience identify with the role of "Si Fei", just like other human characters in the film. Their design should look real, but it has a magical feeling. Whether it is at night or in hand-to-hand combat with the enemy, "Want to Fly" has a royal dignity and elegance, and these have to be completed by the light just now. " If we only rely on ordinary light, we can't show "want to fly" at all, especially in the moonlight, "Murphy said. So we made a series of lighting scheduling and adjustment, which not only made the performance of" Want to fly "clear, but also strengthened the tension of this night battle. 」

Murphy and William also created a terrible monster. Desa rode on him and flew over countless bodies that died in the war. This monster will have a wonderful one-on-one fight with Sifei. As described in the script, monsters are almost killing machines, cold-blooded and fearless. It is huge and dark, and every time it appears, it rolls up a puff of black smoke and dust, just like death. "The monsters in Desa are in sharp contrast to Sifei, which is natural, but the monsters are conspicuous everywhere, with sharp teeth, oversized heads and teeth and no feet. It's almost Okumo and bats. A cow's head and a vampire's teeth add up to a monster. 」

Murphy said: "This role was designed at one time." . "But it is a challenge to convey it technically, especially when there is smoke. It is really difficult for a heavy body to move effectively in the smoke. Weita designed some special effects for the Hungarian shooting scene to make the battle more Willie. " We must control all the details of the scene and how to match the real person and animation in the post-production. "William said that all our action scenes are in and around the volcano, which is very shocking visually, because with the speed and angle of flight, it will give the audience an unforgettable visual experience. 」

Vita is also in charge of another large-scale action scene, which is also where deep emotions are put into the film. It is a self-sacrificing performance to explore the friendship between Ai Lingang and Si Fei. William said: "We have dealt with the softer and more private parts of Sifei here." "We strengthened his facial expression animation, paid attention to the action details, and let the interaction between them develop independently. At a magical moment, it pushed the characters and stories to a new chapter, that is, Vita created "Si Fei", which experienced the transformation from a young child to an adult, similar to an adult ceremony. The magical visual effects of Vita and light and shadow, together with exotic and rough Hungarian and Slovak shooting locations, created Alagarcia in Dragon Knight. Dragon Knight is also one of the biggest movies made in these two places. There are more than 500 crew members, which is unimaginable in the ancient city of Budapest. The ranch where Illigan, his uncle Gary and his cousin Lola live together is set on a piece of land in the Budapest Valley, about 45 minutes' drive from the town.

Brother Baatar and his henchmen's lair are in a cave on the hillside, and they can only enter through the gap at the top of the mountain. It's very secretive and steep. The film crew used special cantilever equipment to move the equipment to the cave, including cameras, radio equipment and other shooting equipment, as well as the scenery and costumes necessary for the scene. After you put it in the cave, because this is a national reserve, you can't move around, and everyone's activities are officially confined to such a small space. After that, the mountains in Slovakia provided many shooting places. The mountain scenery was natural and magnificent, and you could see valleys, gullies and waterfalls.

Exterior location, special effects technology, artists and craftsmen, directors and related personnel, as well as actors, have jointly created these worlds and characters, and put the fantasy imagination in Christopher Paolini's book into practice and presented it on the big screen, which is completely unexpected. "I originally thought" Dragon Knight "was an image and a film," the author pointed out. "I first saw these characters and actions in my mind. But because I have no money to make a movie, I will write it down in words and put it in a book. 」

The realization of the Dragon Knight has exceeded Paolini's dream, and the major film companies will adapt this epic fantasy story with the chief team and great investment. Paolini's own experience, his imagination and the heroic character of his characters all remind us that dreams are not far away.
