How to make Nava's summoner and armored warrior? Really, can you?

The summoner of armor warrior is a prop for filming, but it is actually made of plastic, so it is impossible to really summon armor. The armor combination shots in TV series are made of special effects.

First, the actor stands in a fixed position with the summoner at his waist, and then the photographer will pause the camera. Then a staff member will come and fasten the belt for the actor, fix the summoner, and then turn on the camera to continue shooting. When the actor made some summoning movements, the photographer paused the camera again. At this time, a stuntman has put on a holster, stood in the position of the original actor, posed as the original actor, and finally turned on the camera to continue shooting. This completes the whole process of summoning armor.

There is also a stunt that is usually used in movies, that is, the steps of the protagonist changing while walking, or putting on armor one by one. This stunt is expensive to make and needs to be shot in the wrong position. First, the actor goes through this transformation, then the leather actor goes through this transformation, and finally it is synthesized by CG technology.

The shooting procedure of feature films is very complicated and hard, so we should be considerate of those actors, especially the leather actors.

Armored holster is semi-sealed, so it will be very hot in the holster when shooting, so pull the holster open every once in a while to breathe, otherwise it will suffocate. Sometimes a group of shots takes half a day, and a leather actor often repeats an action dozens of times.

Some factories in Studio City can make filming props like this. Nava the Armor Warrior was filmed in Xiangshan Film and Television City.
