Chapter 430 "Jurassic" filming begins

The authoritative British film magazine "Empire Magazine" recently announced the 2013 global box office rankings.

"Iron Man 3" took the top spot with box office revenue of US$12 billion, followed by "The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug" and "The Hunger Games: Catching Fire", with great potential to catch up.

The focus of the market has come to the ongoing filming of "Jurassic World."

What will happen if this IP, which has attracted much attention in film history, will be rebooted more than ten years later has touched the hearts of many movie fans.

"Li has come to Hawaii for filming, right? How is the progress?"

"I'm really looking forward to this movie."

"Li can be said to be the number one director of science fiction films. What kind of chemical reaction he will have with dinosaurs is really worth looking forward to."

It can be said that since Li Mu officially joined the team and filming started in Hawaii, it has been the focus of heated discussions among the audience and the media.

Of course Universal's Adam Ferguson is the one looking forward to "Jurassic World."

Here on Oahu on the Na Pali Coast, only two walls were actually built, including the observation space and door in the middle.

Shu Chang jumped up suddenly, which startled Liu Yifei, but she was immediately attracted by the news, "Let me see, let me see, show me quickly."

Liu Yifei couldn't wait and stuck her head over.

Shu Chang complained.

The first part of "Jurassic World" basically revolves around the Indominus Rex.

Li Mu was also a little interested. This thing ran very happily on the grass, but it was a pity that there were no dinosaurs on either side.

At this moment, Liu Yifei, who was not accompanied by Li Mu, returned to her villa and called for friends, well, that is, she called Shu Chang.

Liu Yifei twisted.

Shu Chang just came over in the evening after finishing his work for the day.

This is where the Indominus Rex is kept, and the enclosure is filled with plenty of trees to help the monster hide itself.

"Hey, Wu Jing and Xie Nan announced their marriage. Wow, these two people just received their marriage certificate without saying a word."

"Li, do you want to try this gyro ball viewing car together?"

"Let me tell you, Miss Sissi, is it too much for you to think of me without your fiancé by your side?"

She was lying on the sofa like an old man, not thinking that she was an outsider at all. After all, she had lived here for several years, and her familiarity was no less than that of Liu Yifei.

Li Mu felt that he was almost done and could try shooting first.

Liu Yifei thought about it and decided to act according to her plan and not to disrupt the plan.

"Forget it, it's better to wait until later and give him a surprise then."

Many dinosaur models and some scenes require the scenery here, and they are taken back for special effects and models.

Although she said this, Liu Yifei didn't feel the slightest apology on her face.

After Li Mu announced the end of the ijnt mission, Chris Pratt looked at these big toys with interest.

But so far, it has only collected about 4000 million U.S. dollars globally, and it has a high chance of becoming the most profitable blockbuster this year after "The Lone Ranger" starring Johnny Depp.

This achievement can be said to be irresistible. Global's loss of more than 100 million US dollars is a foregone conclusion.

However, at this moment, Li Mu is still working on the set with the team. After all, this lineup is not his own. It is still a preliminary preparation made by Universal, and the actors are not familiar with it yet. In the past two or three days, in addition to reading the script, even testing Shooting, and doing on-site split shots along the way.

"When do you plan to visit the class?"

Wu Jing's Weibo suddenly revealed the photos of the two people's marriage certificates, and attached the copy:

The number of likes and retweets has increased rapidly.

After the director arrives at the scene, he will divide the shots on the spot based on the on-site rehearsal situation. This is especially the case for directors with rich shooting experience.

"I've seen through you a long time ago."

"Later, otherwise it will look like I'm in a hurry."

But the "Jurassic World" version of the theme park was filmed in the parking lot of an abandoned amusement park in New Orleans, Louisiana, where the art team has built a large number of shops and restaurants that are more than 130 meters long.

"Okay, let's give it a try."

However, there is a difference between the gyro ball viewing car and the actual movie, because the spherical glass is added in post-production, and the real one has no glass.

"Sorry."

Different from the past, which was more like a modified off-road vehicle participating in the African savanna, the design of "Jurassic World" is more in line with the near-future world view of this game.

The main shooting tasks were all concentrated on the Napali Coast on the north coast. After all, this is a dinosaur theme park.

Due to Universal Investment, "47 Ronin" starring Keanu Reeves was delayed for more than a year, and the investment cost increased to US$1.75 million.

"OK, we'll start shooting the first set of shots tomorrow. Let's go to bed early today."

Shu Chang didn't care either.

This approach is more realistic.

"But pull it down, aren't you anxious now?"

"Accidentally, I met you; accidentally, I fell in love with you; accidentally, I married you; I will treat you carefully all my life! @谢南"

Some directors do not write storyboards, but only director scripts or director scene scripts.

"I would also like to send them my best wishes first."

Liu Yifei quickly picked up her mobile phone on the table, and the two of them also left messages to express their blessings.

"No, I have to tell Amu first."

Liu Yifei murmured to herself subconsciously and called Li Mu without stopping.

It was just early morning in Hawaii, and a new day of filming was about to begin, and the relevant crew members were already preparing.

"Huh?" Li Mu was a little surprised when he saw the phone ringing in his hand.

"Brother Jing is married, do you know?"

As soon as Li Mu answered the phone, Liu Yifei's sweet voice rang in his ears. "Huh?" Li Mu was also a little surprised. This was fast enough, and it was also very fast.

"What he just posted on Weibo."

Liu Yifei was still telling Li Mu slowly and non-stop.

Li Mu listened quietly and responded from time to time.

"Li Mu is so patient. I listened to you talk a lot of nonsense."

Shu Changgang listened to Liu Yifei talking non-stop and couldn't help but complain.

"You're a bachelor and you won't understand."

"."

Shu Chang felt like he had been hit hard.

"Brother Jing, you have accomplished such a big thing without saying anything. Congratulations."

At this time, Li Mu took advantage of his free time to call Wu Jing.

"Hey, accidentally, accidentally."

Wu Jing seemed to be still immersed in joy at this moment, and something felt wrong when he spoke.

"???Accidentally created a child?"

Li Mu was shocked.

"Uh, no, no"

Wu Jing explained in a dumbfounded way, which also made Xie Nan roll his eyes. This big boss couldn't even speak clearly.

"You won't miss a meal, I tell you."

Li Mu said jokingly.

"That's necessary. If Director Li hadn't gone to Hawaii, you would have had a drink tomorrow."

Wu Jing said with a smile.

"."

After hanging up the phone, Li Mu checked the time on his watch and hurried to the set.

This once "shaky" project is finally about to officially start filming.

The exterior shots were shot using 65mm film and a 2001mm camera that was used by Kubrick to shoot "65: A Space Odyssey".

Shooting people will switch back to 35mm film.

Naturally, the use of 35mm and 65mm film is to give the film a better texture on the IMAX screen.

Digital photography has completely replaced film.

But for the sake of image quality, there are still filmmakers who insist on shooting on film.

In the past, most movies were shot in 35mm film format. With the development of giant screens, some people are also trying to shoot on 65mm film, because the wider the film width, the higher the image size and resolution.

Nolan is a film fan. His "Inception" and "The Dark Knight Rises" both used 65mm film.

The decision to shoot on expensive 65mm film also means that "Jurassic World" will eventually be presented in the IMAX giant screen format.

This was also a special beginning. Instead of using people as the first shot of the first scene, we used framing to start the shooting.

"Li, the extras will arrive tomorrow."

The executive director communicated with Li Mu about the scenes that needed to be shot here later.

There are a lot of extra scenes here, such as the scene where the luxury cruise ship sails to this world-class park, and the natural scenery of the coastline is connected with the first part. This is also a point that needs to be paid attention to when creating.

When writing the script, in order to connect with and pay tribute to the first film, Li Mu specially and skillfully arranged ten details for the fans.

For this shot of a luxury cruise ship, in order to show its level of luxury, Universal directly rented a billion-dollar luxury cruise ship to shoot.

There are about 800 extras needed here.

It has to be said that a large part of the cost of shooting these blockbusters is spent here.

"Owen, what happens next is up to you."

Li Mu called Chris Pratt's name in the film, and while filming the location, he also filmed the actor's scenes nearby.

Chris Pratt suddenly became serious.

In "Jurassic World", Chris Pratt's performances are basically without real objects. Of course, if he really can't fit into the scene, some models will still be used in front of him, but they are generally not used in this way.

Because it has to be dealt with later.

"stop!"

"Hey, okay."

"Look at me, Blue."

Chris Pratt was on set, waving his right hand as if directing something.

"."

"Good, Owen. It's over, let's change to the next game."

For this simple role, Chris Pratt, who has been wandering all the way up to now, can win the role of Star-Lord and appears in Jurassic World, naturally has no difficulty.

"Are the kids ready?"

Li Mu asked the executive. These two actors were not selected by him personally. Universal's casting director selected them after a large number of interviews.

The roles of these two children were the result of discussions between Li Mu and Spielberg. Of course, Spielberg also likes to add such characters in movies, such as "Jurassic Park".

Li Mu spent a lot of effort to prevent these two children from becoming annoying brats.
