Chatty Hollywood

Chapter 353: Green Mile

Keanu Reeves didn't know that he was being designed by his good brother at this time.

He just felt that his performance this time was very helpful.

For some reason, he had a feeling that he was really exorcizing.

Even when facing the little girl who played the role of the demon possessed, he almost had the illusion that something was really wriggling under the opponent's skin.

This made Keanu Reeves a little frightened, but inexplicably excited.

He didn't stop performing because of the surprise in his heart, instead he came to the state even more.

This dangerous and exciting feeling even reminded him of the feeling of riding a heavy motorcycle.

Following the plan in the script, he smashed the window while asking someone to bring a mirror.

At the same time, through the window, he told Chase, the little apprentice and driver who was waiting for him downstairs, to move the car away.

However, because of the different scenes, Chas, played by Joseph Gordon-Levitt, did not appear in this scene.

-Chase's shots need to be edited and synthesized after the corresponding scenes have been specially filmed.

Now, after Keanu Reeves finished saying hello at the window according to the script, he began to use the big mirror to exorcise—

On the one hand, he suppressed the little girl who was possessed by the devil, and on the other hand, he let the mirror hang up parallel to the bed where the little girl was...

"CUT! It's over!"

When the preparations for the exorcism were almost done, Charlotte called a timeout.

There is actually no way to stop shooting at this place, because in the back, you need to take a shot of the demon being cast into the mirror by Constantine.

This not only involves the special effects part, but also faces a problem—

I need to take pictures in the mirror. In this way, how can I hide the camera that is only facing the mirror?

When shooting a movie, there are too many situations where I accidentally put on the cover and exposed the camera because I was facing the mirror.

So, Charlotte changed his mind altogether.

At the beginning, it was indeed an ordinary large mirror, but when the demon in the mirror was taken close-up, the mirror would be replaced with a larger screen.

On the screen, the reflection shots taken in advance will be specially played, that is, the shots where the devil appears.

In this way, the reflection of the camera in the mirror will naturally not appear.

As for the demon caught in the mirror, Ruifan came out of friendship naturally.

—For Charlotte, there is no need to make a special effect for a ghost.

However, because of this, the scenes of the exorcism must be paused here.

The shot of the devil being taken into the mirror will be processed separately. The next scene to be shot is indeed an interesting scene prepared by Charlotte—

In the original "Detective of Hell", when the demon was taken into the mirror, it was immediately trapped in the mirror.

Next, Constantine and the others only need to throw the mirror out of the window and smash it.

However, in Charlotte's view, the expressiveness of such a scene is a bit worse.

Simply put, compelling is not enough!

Therefore, Shaarat specially designed a lens in which the image in the mirror is reversed here.

It's like the scene where dream builder Adriana first created a dream in "Inception", turning the street in the mirror into a real street.

Or the mirrored world in "Doctor Strange".

Of course, Charlotte does not intend to use too complicated lenses here.

After all, this demon is essentially just a small miscellaneous soldier. It's a bit strange to use magical spells to deal with it, but it can't be used later.

Charlotte just designed a lens that blends and reverses the scene and reality—

After the demon was taken into the mirror, Constantine also turned around.

In the next moment, his reflection in the mirror became his real body.

He punched the demon in the face, knocking it backwards and falling, really falling into the mirror.

Constantine retreated from the world in the mirror by the counterforce of this punch and returned to the real world again.

Then he taunted the trapped demon,

"Say hello to your boss!"

—This is the Charlotte design lens.

At present, this kind of lens is still quite novel and impactful.

However, although this may be only a ten-second shot at the time of the screening, it is not a lot of trouble to achieve when shooting.

Just to show the effect of this mirror reversal, Charlotte and Addison Young tried ten times to determine the final effect.

To achieve Constantine's fight with the devil, you need to use special effects photography.

Of course, in fact, Charlotte uses his magic special effects—

He directly turned Rui Fan into a demon, and attached himself to the little stuntman who had been prepared in advance.

In this way, in the camera lens specially processed by him, a real demon appeared.

However, the other unknowing staff of the crew, as well as the protagonist Keanu Reeves, did not know this.

In Reeves's view, what he is doing at this time is actually a green-screen filming.

The stuntman who plays the devil is dressed like a Smurf and is about to accept his "punishment punch."

"But, isn't it about green screen shooting? Why is he wearing blue now?"

Before shooting, Keanu was still a little curious.

"Green and blue are actually okay."

Charlotte explained,

"Green and blue are used as the background color, which is more convenient for the technicians to erase the captured content in the later stage, and then put in the computer special effects."

"But in that case, why are they called green screens instead of blue screens?"

"Because the blue screen has a small drawback."

Charlotte shrugged.

"In Hollywood, many actors have blue-green eyes, and they are generally more blue. If you use a blue screen to replace special effects in post-production, you may accidentally erase the eyes of the actors at the same time."

"…All right."

—This reason is indeed reasonable enough, and Keanu is completely speechless.

It is not that he has never experienced green screen photography before, but he never knew it. com actually has such a cheating reason.

"But wouldn't there be such a problem with the green screen?"

Hearing this, Charlize, who was watching, was also a little curious.

"The green screen does not have this kind of problem."

Charlotte smiled.

"For the colors displayed by the human body, red comes from ferrous ions, and green comes from copper. But that kind of copper is toxic to the human body."

"So there won't be people with pure green hair or pure green eyes?"

"Yes."

Charlotte nodded.

"The green eyes we often say, or blond and blue eyes, are actually blue-green to a greater extent, and they are more blue. This color is actually different from pure green. As for the hair—"

"There are really no people with green hair."

Charlize understood what Charlotte meant,

"The green hair I usually see now is dyed."

"Yes."

Charlotte didn't say anything, but there was a little whisper in her heart—

"What kind of mentality do those guys who like to dye their hair the same color as the green grassland?"

Of course, Charlotte also knows that in the American concept, environmental colors have no additional meaning.

—So in their TV series, there are more stories of permutations and combinations of environmentally friendly colors...

On one side, Keanu Reeves didn’t know what Charlotte was muttering in his heart. He just followed Charlotte’s words and thought of a question—

"Since the blue screen has this kind of problem, why did we use the blue screen for this shooting?"

"Well..."

Charlotte smiled bitterly and shook her head...
