Best Movie Star

Chapter 158: impatience

Ask for a monthly pass! Ask for a recommendation ticket!

Standing in the studio, Matthew glanced at the bow and arrow in his hand and waited patiently outside a tent. Filming was taking place inside the tent. He would need to break in for a while. Since he could not see the situation inside the tent, a man wearing a The assistant director of the headset was standing nearby, waiting for a notification inside, before gesturing to him. m. The most economical mobile phone traffic, no advertising site.

After waiting for a long time, the assistant director shrugged and made a few mouth gestures.

Matthew generally understood that the scenes in it were NG.

He put down his longbow, held it on the ground with one hand, and with the other hand skillfully inserted three strangely shaped arrows back into the quiver behind him.

The voice of Chuck Russell speaking to the actors came from inside the tent. Matthew knew that the filming would not be possible for a while.

Suddenly, a chair was placed in the back, and assistant Mila-Wang's voice came from behind, "Take a break, I've been standing for half an hour."

Matthew did not refuse, handed the bow to Mira, and sat on the chair.

It must be a lie to say that he is not tired. He rushed to the studio for makeup before four o'clock this morning. Even if the crew had equipped the male lead with highly professional makeup artists and assistant makeup artists, they were close by the time they finished styling. At 8:30, and then officially started shooting at 8:30, more than half an hour has passed, and the first shot has not been completed due to various circumstances.

Not only these, but also the equipment on his body, from simple leather armor to bow bag to long knife, even if the long bow is not counted, the weight is 30 pounds.

Fortunately, he had practiced cross-country with weights, otherwise he would have been out of breath.

Matthew waited for a while, then beckoned the assistant director over and asked, "What's going on inside?"

The assistant director pointed to the tent, "The actor tied to the post is always in trouble."

Matthew nodded, stopped talking, and waited with peace of mind.

Although he didn't know the actor tied to the pillar, he knew that he was also a client of Angel Agency.

Filming soon started again, Mila Wang took away the chair, Matthew held a bow and arrow, and was ready to go again, this time there was no NG, he quickly saw the assistant director's gesture, a vigorous step rushed into the tent, bowed his bow The arrow, the three arrows tied together, was immediately shot out by him.

Matthew didn't know if this kind of archery with one string and three arrows really existed. Anyway, he couldn't do it, so the prop master fixed the other two arrows on one arrow at the same time.

Even so, the arrows shot were completely out of focus, and the prop bow was so soft that it flew out only ten meters before it landed on the ground.

However, this does not affect the shooting. What such a scene requires is only the shot of the character shooting the arrow, and the enemy who died under the arrow completely relies on post-editing.

The shooting didn't end. Matthew followed the designed routine, dodged a stabbing long sword, and pulled the longbow in his left hand towards the man's head. Due to the meticulous rehearsal during training, the actor fell to the ground just right.

Matthew then threw away the longbow, pulled out the sharp blade from his waist, first parried the slashing knife, then flew with his big feet, kicked another soldier who rushed up, and turned around to swing the knife again, looking very dashing, thinking The actor who attacked from the side fell to the ground clutching his neck, which was no longer a pre-designed routine.

Although there are design routines, this is a long shot and requires actors to play on the spot.

In the early plan of this film, it was to get a PG-13 rating, so artificial plasma was basically not used in the filming on the spot, and there would not be scenes of severed limbs and blood and brain plasma flying together.

"Cuck!" Chuck Russell called to stop filming, then announced, "This scene is over!"

Matthew put away the weapon and handed it to Mila Wang behind. Chuck Russell walked into the set and said to Matthew, "This action scene is very good."

The action director Tim Madsen was standing next to him, and Matthew simply sold it, "It's an excellent design by Tim."

This is not a complete compliment. Tim Madsen specially combined his physical characteristics, especially the advantages of flexible pace and good coordination, and designed this set of action routines that combine agility and strength, which is very suitable for shooting cool Brilliant action scenes.

During the rehearsal, Tim Madsen had filmed in order to find the deficiencies in the action design and improve it in time. At that time, Matthew thought the effect was very good.

After a short rest, the filming started again. In this scene, Matthew had no literary scenes, but all action scenes. He faced many enemies. On the spacious ground in front of the camera, the actors tied to the pillars were the center. He kept wandering and fighting, and under his blade, one actor after another fell to the ground with great cooperation.

Compared with the previous literary dramas, Matthew's action scenes were shot quite smoothly. Although many of the fighting scenes in the back were shot in fragments, usually only one shot every ten seconds, but NG rarely occurred, and most of the shots were shot. Once or twice.

"Matthew is well prepared."

In the far corner of the filming area in the tent, Helen Herman stood with Stephen Sommers and said during the interval, "If he didn't have the long-term accumulation of exercise, the shooting would not have been so smooth."

"Yeah." Stephen Sommers nodded in approval, "Matthew's dedication is unquestionable, and he has a special talent for action scenes. He can often be seen through a little bit, and he can express it in the most appropriate and perfect way."

Helen Herman lifted her black-rimmed glasses, "I think he has the potential to become an action star."

Stephen Sommers was silent at first, then said after a while, "Action movies, especially traditional action movies, are dead."

"But the emerging action films are on the rise." Helen Herman pointed out, "For example, action plus sci-fi, action plus magic type, the response has been very good in recent years."

Filming resumed without Stephen Sommers speaking, nor Helen Herman speaking.

However, Stephen Sommers kept his eyes on the set, and Matthew Horner was really prepared. The next long shot showed extremely agile skills, and he dodged from the double team of four people. out, showing its fangs like a deadly poisonous snake...

Undoubtedly, this young actor's performance in action scenes can only be described as almost perfect. Even if he was present to direct the filming, I'm afraid there is no reason not to let him pass.

He couldn't help but think of the super project he was planning with Universal Pictures. The currently confirmed actor, Van Helsing, is a very skilled and extremely powerful monster hunter.

Such a character known as the bravest hunter of mankind, of course, also needs a matching actor.

Fame aside, Matthew Horner looks like a good fit.

Stephen Sommers made a decision to include Matthew Horner on the shortlist of candidates, or even as a key subject of investigation. If this film can be successful, how can Matthew Horner accumulate some fame, most notably. At least you can be a little star.

And it fits his idea of ​​making Van Helsing younger and cooler.

The shooting on the set came to an end temporarily. After the director Chuck Russell called to stop, Matthew supported his body with a long prop knife, and his breathing was a little rough. The equipment on his body was too heavy, especially after shooting for such a long time. The time, nearly thirty pounds of equipment, felt like a hill on top of him.

After more than two hours of filming, Chuck Russell could see that Matthew's physical fitness had reached a critical point, and he quickly ordered, "Pause filming and rest for half an hour!"

Matthew walked to the resting place and sat on the chair. The stylist immediately came over to help him remove the heavy weapon equipment and leather armor. The makeup artist who had been following the shooting came over and carefully wiped the sweat from his forehead.

In just a few minutes, from the stylist to the makeup artist to the props artist, three groups of people came to serve him.

This is the hero, one of the central points on the set!

As long as Matthew wants, he can immediately recruit people from any department of the crew.

Of course, Matthew will not let people run around for no reason. He has adjusted his mentality very well. Even if he becomes the hero, he is still low-key and humble as always.

As long as others don't stand in the way, he won't foolishly rush up and kick others.

Taking off his equipment and wearing a blanket, Matthew sat for a while, his breathing gradually calmed down, Mira brought tea, and he took it and drank most of it in one gulp. The physical strength he had lost before was quickly recovering.

I have to say ~www.readwn.com~ This body has very good innate conditions for sports, and he can feel it himself, like the routines of swordsmanship and close combat during training, which are very fast to learn. Extraordinary people.

This is also the most precious treasure left to him by the previous one.

Matthew drank a cup of tea and leaned back on the chair. He was about to close his eyes and continue the rest when he saw Helen Herman walking over.

"Is something wrong?" He knew that Helen Herman would not come here at this time if he was okay.

Helen Herman nodded slightly and looked at Mila-Wang on the other side. Mila-Wang was very knowledgeable and made a random excuse to stay away from here.

"I just tested Stephen Sommers." Helen Herman obviously didn't think much of the leading actor in that big production. "He should have listed you as one of the backup candidates."

She urged, "You have to behave well."

Matthew looked up at Helen Herman and asked, "Don't you think it's a little inappropriate to say this now?"

Helen Herman was stunned for a moment.

"Are you in a hurry?" Matthew read and guessed, roughly understanding Helen Herman's current state of mind, and reminded, "It's not like you, Helen."

Hearing this, Helen Herman woke up and was silent for a while, as if thinking about what he had done during this time. After a few minutes, he spoke again.

"Thank you." She thanked her very seriously, "Thank you, Matthew. I'm so anxious."

Helen Herman was about to leave, and before leaving, she said, "These things will be discussed after you finish filming this film. You focus on filming and don't think about other things."
