Behind-the-scenes shooting of Paradise Lost

Behind the scenes shooting tidbits? Text/editorial department

92 ● Two weeks before shooting

The killer was busy.

After postponing the shooting time three times and changing countless shooting locations, the shooting time of this book and the list of all the people who participated in the performance were finally finalized. Alas, I can only say that not only the "cowboy" is busy, but even the "killer" is not idle! He is not only busy with the promotion of records, but also has several idol dramas in progress, more of which are overseas promotion trips. The murderer handled it calmly and the people next to him were anxious.

● One week before shooting.

God, give me a sunny face.

The rainy and cool weather has lasted for a whole week. Seeing that the shooting time is approaching step by step, God just refuses to give some warm sunshine. I can't help worrying, what if the killer's hair breaks in the rain? Do you want winter clothes or autumn clothes? Should I be a vegetarian for a week to show my sincerity? Do you want to go bye-bye and ask for good weather?

It's really hard to wait for such wild speculation!

● Three days before shooting.

Be in a daze at 7: 00 in the morning

When everyone is not sure whether the weather will get better, the closer the time is, the more people will panic. I can't help calling and harassing director Huang's colleagues, hoping to find out the shooting time and place. I only heard the easy answer on the other end of the phone, "We can decide whether to take photos first in the mountains or in the urban area according to the weather conditions. If you really want to give time today, then wash and dress at seven in the morning and meet on the mountain! "

Stupid! Is this an artist's life? ?

That was close. The schedule I gave you later was changed from seven to ten. Director Huang's colleagues also said that it had never been filmed so late, all for us to adjust the time! Let's just say that we are too comfortable on weekdays! )

● Two days before shooting.

Bling-Bling Customization Day

Today is customization day. What is a "custom fit"? It is to decide what clothes to wear when taking pictures, and will match the appropriate clothes according to the plot and the mood of the characters. Of course, on this day, we saw the skinny stylist carrying two bags of clothes, shoes and accessories rented from the manufacturer, so that Yu Zhe could choose enough.

Originally, the killer in the author's mind was a man in white clothes and trousers, but later I heard that the killer didn't seem to like being too conspicuous in the crowd, so most of the killers were dressed in black, so we had to follow good advice and set the killer's suit in black. I didn't expect the stylist to get inspiration that day, just adding a jewel-like silver killer suit to two black clothes. After Yu Zhe tried it on one by one, everyone present was attracted by this silver coat, plus shirts, ties and a conspicuous cross necklace. I really can't help but say, cool, there is a kind of justice with a little rebellious flavor. So far, it is certain that the killer in black will never appear in the book. (Laughter)

During the fitting, Yu Zhe took pains to put on a suit and let us take pictures. Interestingly, our fitting room actually has a big French window! We were worried about his exposure, but he calmly replied, "no one will watch it outside!" " But you may have to wait outside. "Oh, how did that happen? It turns out that our staff is terrible, haha!

Although the sky is still cloudy today, there is no sunshine, but the rain has stopped. I think, maybe this cloudy sky can make the murderer more melancholy! I hope it will clear up the day after tomorrow, but we are going to shoot in the mountains!

● The first morning of shooting.

La la la, the sun is out.

Unbelievable, the weather has changed! Become radiant!

Early in the morning, our soldiers divided into four roads and headed for Yangmingshan. These four paths are: Yu Zhe, director, stylist and three editors who can't stand up and have swollen eyes. The scenery along the way is beautiful, which seems to indicate that today's shooting will be smooth.

First of all, I came to the first shooting scene, which is a garden shop and herbal restaurant. When the director was busy preparing shooting equipment and scene selection, I saw two people come in with Yu Zhe's jump. Yu Zhe said shyly, "Sorry, everyone, I hurt my foot before filming." The murderer was wounded before the war. How to do this? Everyone in too many chefs throws away OK ties for fear that he will hurt his feet by wearing shoes.

Li Er ran into a garden store because of the rain. In order to show the best rain curtain for the light and rain at that time, Li Er had to keep running in and out until he tried to get the most beautiful rain picture. We all feel distressed when we read it. Although the sun is out, there is still a slight cool breeze on the mountain, and we are afraid that she will catch cold. When Lill was in the rain, the murderer kept pointing at a small tree and threatened to trim the branches and leaves. This photo is actually interesting. Lill was very busy, but the killer showed a freeze-frame picture, always bared his teeth at the tree, haha!

● The afternoon of the first day of shooting.

Summer turns into winter, and blue and white drag killers appear.

After lunch, we followed the director up the hill, looking for a place that was "as beautiful as approaching heaven". Actually, the director is very casual. I feel that even an inconspicuous path on the roadside will become a very tasteful picture under his lens. At this moment, the director's feeling is that it is better to kill Baraka Highway.

This suit doesn't appear in the book. Later, we thought it might be better to use a red suit when a boy is addicted to love. Yes, it's the red suit with small flowers in the book. )

Custom-made shoes line up, isn't it spectacular? There is no doubt that this is only a small part, what is seen and not seen in the mirror, and a pile of clothes, belts, suspenders, necklaces and gloves.

Yu Zhe's expression is a little painful. It must be a big wound.

But in the end, the bag is too exaggerated, and the shoes can't be worn at all, haha!

Good weather, where is it raining? Look at the picture and you will know that the staff and a water pipe can create a beautiful water curtain!

There is a better place to capture the feeling of heaven. As a result, we set off in the bright sunshine. As the mountains get higher and higher, the sky becomes gloomy. The director's car stopped, and everyone got off. A thick fog came with a chill and drove the group back to the car, shaking all over. On reflection, I'm afraid we can't see a good view because of the fog. Finally, under the command of the director, we turned around and followed the director to another hill with a "legendary towering tree".

That big tree looks really super aura and really feels close to heaven! Because it's a short walk from the parking lot, everyone is worried about Yu Zhe's foot injury. Unexpectedly, he quickly took out a magic weapon ── blue and white mop and walked up the mountain with a smile step by step. The upper body is a killer suit, but the feet ... can only be said to be super weird!

Two days before the shooting, the beautician Kim reminded us that if the weather is cold, remember to make ginger tea for the artist or bring some warm bags. So we regained our poor cooking skills, bought old ginger the day before and cooked super spicy ginger tea with love. But when shooting in the morning, the sun was dazzling, and I think ginger tea should be useless. In the afternoon, the mountain is like a cold current crossing the border, and everyone's nose is cold. At this time, Kim showed a smug smile and a look of "ginger tea, please". We quickly handed the hot ginger tea, only to see Yu Zhe's brow wrinkled. "I've never drunk anything like this." Everybody open your eyes. What? Get out of here! /Really? This is not the first cup of ginger tea in his life, is it?

● Shoot the next morning.

Photos are flying all over the sky

Come to the shooting point early in the morning. This is a restaurant featuring "like home", all kinds of fabric sofas and a small staircase. It's really like home here, and it's very special. The focus of the morning was filming "The murderer found himself the one who killed Li's ex-boyfriend", and there were many inner scenes.

Today's knives include a long sniper rifle and a short pistol. Yu Zhe couldn't put down the two guns. When shooting, you can see him holding a gun and gesturing to kill people. Of course, without a goal, how can we make a correct gesture? So, you can see him holding a gun to the head of the staff and enjoying himself. (These are props guns, which are harmless. Children should not learn them! )

Yu Zhe saw the photos of Li Er's ex-boyfriend in his wallet and was shocked by the photos flying all over the sky, which pushed the atmosphere to a climax. The director gave full play to the skill of directing the play, and constantly added drama with feelings, which added a little drama tension to the original script.

● Shooting the next afternoon.

Dark alley gunfight, underworld boss reluctant.

Highlight! This afternoon is the best time to show the killer's prestige, and it was filmed in an alley next to a busy road. It may be a problem for us to overcome the passers-by and bystanders who appreciate us, but Yu Zhe and the director ignored this.

In the scene of shooting an emotional warming scene with the heroine Li Er, the director had a brainwave and asked two handsome guys and beautiful women to throw small flowers to represent a sweet feeling. Although it was easy to throw, after more than a dozen times, not only the small flowers became broken, but also the soil did not know where to fly.

The road leading to the top of the mountain is under construction, and the road condition is very poor. At one time, we thought that the road could not be closed, but fortunately, the construction unit gave up a path and we were able to move on.

The legendary blue-and-white dragger kills people without blinking an eye. Stay away from idle people!

This long sniper rifle makes Yu Zhe completely unwilling to put it down. Look at the cool look of his gun, his feet are still black and blue! As for who he is targeting, for the safety of the parties, it is not open to the public here, ha! Others exist before they start working. I saw the director lying on the ground for a while, sticking to the wall for a while, and leaning against him to do difficult movements for a while. Wow, it's really not an image. However, he is very handsome. The director really has the temper of an artist. He keeps a low profile and doesn't care about other people's eyes. He just concentrates on his own creation.

Remember the killer's blue and white mop? You can't wear it here at all. First, too many passers-by will see it. Second, there are many scenes where you can take pictures of your whole body. Therefore, Yu Zhe forced the injured foot into the killer's small black leather shoes, and ran and jumped according to the director's request. As a result, his foot injury finally healed and it hurt again. Anyway, the next step is to shoot the scene of killing the underworld boss after drinking, and the facial expression is also very convincing. At first, the makeup artist didn't want to be the mafia boss, but despite repeated invitations from Yu Zhe, he nodded. What's cool is that he wore sunglasses, black clothes and a little baby face, and immediately changed his face. He really looked like a mafia boss and was super fierce.

Thanks to all the staff, the shooting went very smoothly. Thank you for reading this work. I hope you will like the introduction of this new publication.
