Director’s Legend

The Lost Domain is a very special place and the edge of the subconscious. In all the narratives of "Inception", the Lost Domain is not a first-level dream, but a place independent of the third-level dream. Once you enter the Lost Domain, you will get lost in it. In the movie, Cobb and Mel are lost in the Lost Domain.

However, regarding the level of dreams, Shao Shuaijun's design did not specifically delineate, because the ending is an open ending. If the top stops, it is the three-level dream plus the lost domain. If the top does not stop, then it is still in the dream, which is the fourth-level dream plus the lost domain.

In short, this is a very complicated story. In the groundbreaking action, a total of seven dreams have been entered, plus the interstitial and flashback methods, even if you tell it for ten days, you can't understand the level of the dream. But in any case, this is a sharp story.

The reason why I shot some shots in Morocco is because the environment here is very suitable for storytelling, and because there are often large-scale film crews shooting here, there are film crews with rich experience and both ability and integrity. At any time, as long as the crew needs to start work, the local cooperation work is in place. The local residents are also very used to the working methods of the blockbuster crew, and they cooperate very well.

Shao Shuaijun sat under the parasol, and the sea in Tangier was in front of him. On the seaside, the crew built a large row of houses to construct the basic prototype of Lost Field. In the later special effects, the lost domain will be gradually expanded, and various collapse and destruction effects will be created. And now, we are going to film the plot of Leo and Allen going ashore.

As soon as the start time came, Shao Shuaijun's tables and chairs were immediately taken into the building by the staff. Then he and the crew were one of them. He took off his shoes and socks and ran into the sea, waiting for the shooting. This afternoon, I don't know what's going on. There is no wind and the waves are very small. The crew had to rent an engine and modify it a bit to build a small wind-making machine.

"begin!"

...

After shooting from Tangier, the crew immediately rushed to Calgary, Canada. Here in Banff National Park. There is a fortress hill that can provide shooting. Just returning from the tropics, it’s a wonderful experience to go to the frigid zone to enjoy the ice and snow. Shao Shuaijun and photographers in order to step on the shooting. Driving a snowmobile. Speeding across the mountains and plains.

"I like snow-capped mountains! Ooo! What a beautiful view!" Shao Shuaijun sat in the car. Shouting loudly, panting. The higher the place, the thinner the air.

The guide laughed: "Only very senior skiers or climbers can reach higher peaks."

"Oh, my goodness!" The assistant directors wailed immediately, and then peeked at Shao Shuaijun secretly. In the past two days, they stepped on the spot, and they saw the crazy side of Shao Shuaijun. Without the place he dared not go, without the snow action he dared not play, he was not here to make a movie, but to take a vacation.

Sure enough, Shao Shuaijun's eyes lit up: "I feel that Gongbu, Wang Fuzhou, and Qu Yinhua are possessed at this moment! Let’s-go!"

While driving the motorcycle, the guide asked, "Who are Kampot, Wang Fuzhou, and Qu Yinhua?"

Gao Zhisheng gasped for oxygen and said, "China, the Himalayas, people who climbed."

"They are the heroes of our Chinese mountaineering session. They climbed to the top of the Himalayas on the top of the world! They did not use artificial oxygen at an altitude of 8882 meters. Only the Chinese in the world can do it! Ou, Gao Zhisheng, you are too useless. There is firewood, it’s less than three kilometers away, and you are still sitting on a motorcycle, and you pant like this, and your physique is too weak!" Shao Shuaijun was very excited, driving on the snowy mountain, this feeling is very wonderful.

When the motorcycle stopped at the highest point of Fortress Hill, looking at the plain white world below, Shao Shuaijun felt his head dizzy. Now he is at least four kilometers in height, and he feels a little unsteady when he stands.

"Director, take some oxygen!"

Shao Shuaijun's face turned blue and rolled his eyes: "Do you think I am a person who wants to breathe oxygen? Four kilometers, play! I tell you, wait a minute, we will start shooting from here and slide all the way down. Beautiful enough, I want the audience to enjoy all the wonderful things I enjoy now... Uh, no more, come on, give me a breath of oxygen..."

The shooting on Fort Hill was painful and happy. It was cold and cold, and it felt novel when I first arrived, but it gradually became dull. About a week or so, the filming on Fort Hill was over, and the actors had already evacuated. As the director, Shao Shuaijun had to wait another day, because a model of the fort was built here for filming.

In order to be realistic, the scale of the model building is 10:1. At the same time, it must be covered with snow, fog, etc., plus post-processing special effects, so that even if it is imax photography, the fortress looks very real.

"Sister Xiuxiu, you definitely can't think of what I am doing now, haha, we are demolishing a fortress...Of course, it is a cool and tall fortress on a snowy mountain.?" To the satellite phone, Shao Shuaijun wrapped in a large down jacket. Talking.

There is no cell phone signal near Fort Hill, so you can only use satellite phones to make calls. It has become a fixed habit for two people to call Li Xiuxiu every three or five days.

Li Xiuxiu's voice came from the phone: "Take down the fortress, just fool you!"

"Don’t fool you, the fortress was built by our play... Haha, it costs very little, mainly because the labor costs are more expensive, there are too few Canadians, and the workers are not easy to invite. We made a 10:1 model, and the shooting was over. The local government asked us to demolish it so as not to pollute the environment...not much to say, I have to go up and kick, it feels like I am a giant!"

After the fort was demolished and the waste material was taken away, the crew officially bid farewell to Fort Mountain and Canada.

Now, all you need to do is to solve the final scenes in Los Angeles, and then wait for post-production, and then it's released.

But before that, Shao Shuaijun will return to China to participate in ****. He was identified as a representative of the National People's Congress this year as an outstanding representative of the literary and artistic circles. In order to cope with this conference, Shao Shuaijun took the time to give a report. The topics are very general, only for the entertainment industry, and the content of the film industry upgrade should be completed as soon as possible .

This time, President Hu published a report titled "Hold high the great banner of socialism with Chinese characteristics, and strive to win a new victory in building a well-off society in an all-round way." Shao Shuaijun also pretended to hold a pen record below, in fact, he did not even listen to it. Enter a few words, all on paper to conceive the shooting problem of this episode of Los Angeles.

When the meeting ended, Shao Shuaijun was blocked by reporters and asked some questions: "Director Shao, what are your views and opinions on Mr. Hu's report?"

Shao Shuaijun said solemnly to the camera: "Look forward and look forward to the future..."

The conference did not end until October 22, and Shao Shuaijun returned to the United States on the 23rd. Some simple scenes were already filmed by several deputy directors.

After a week of hard work, finally, on November 2, 2007, after three and a half months of preparation and shooting, the regular scenes of "Inception" came to an end! Since this play is involved in the whole process of special effects production, the later part, from light distribution to special effects, can be completed in about one and a half months.

As a result, "Inception" is officially determined to fight this year's Christmas file!

On November 21st, North America and China premiered simultaneously, and then landed globally! (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
