Hollywood Road

Chapter 98: Knuckle Twisting Frame

After filming the family scene of Dr. Gordon played by James Franco in Stanton Studios, Murphy led the crew back to the warehouse studio in Venice and continued filming the few remaining scenes, although he could see James Franco. The relationship between Ko and Lily Collins is subtle, but there is nothing to say, and James Franco himself pays attention to the fact that when there are others, he rarely shows the intimacy between the two.

As for whether there will be more intimate contact between the two, the filming has come to the end, and the scenes of Lily Collins and James Franco are all over, Murphy no longer cares about this.

He is still too busy with his own work, so there is no time to care about James Franco's special hobbies.

Kerry Mulligan also left the crew and returned to school to deal with the drop-out. Jonah Hill and Seth Rogen could detect some signs. It is too late to watch the excitement. How could they break this delicate relationship.

On the warehouse set, Murphy and the crew entered the last set-up scene. He was standing behind the director's monitor, next to editor Jody Griffith, and the two were reviewing the footage just finished.

This situation not only frequently appears in Murphy's crew, but is also the norm throughout Hollywood.

"For post-editing, as long as you cut off the first segment of the jigsaw..." Jody Griffith pressed the pause button, pointed to the monitor screen, and said, "Suddenly inserting the scene he appears will be frightening. effect."

Murphy put his arms around his chest, his head automatically played the interpretation according to Jody Griffith's statement, and nodded gently, "That's it."

When Jody Griffith left here, Murphy looked up and saw the assistant director Paul Wilson give him an'OK' gesture and said loudly, "Attention from all departments, now clear the scene, and filming continues. "

The people on the set quickly walked out, Philip Raschel sat behind the camera set up on the slide, Murphy took the portable camera sent by the camera assistant, and walked to another preset camera position, ready for a close shot. Snapshot.

The recording microphone slowly fell from the air, and an Asian, an African-American and a white actor were also ready.

With Murphy's order, the filming started again. The police officer played by the three actors confronted Rabin Bell, behind which was the prop master Baker Klebert who was tied to the knuckle twisting prop.

His limbs and head are fixed on a steel frame. Once the timer starts, the machine will twist the limbs 360 degrees, and finally twist the neck, causing a tragic death.

Murphy used a camcorder to capture Rabin Bell, while Philip Raschel's lens was rotating between the four people on the opposite side.

In the face of three police officers, how could the jigsaw obediently submit to it? He pressed the remote control and activated the joint twister. The microphone used for recording was beneficially placed on the top of the killing mechanism. The sound of the joint twister rotating and Baker -Kleibert’s panic sounds were all recorded accurately.

After more than three weeks of shooting, Murphy's crew has run into a certain tacit understanding.

The black man asked two police officers to rescue Baker Klebert. He stared at the jigsaw. There was a bunch of keys behind the knuckle. The white police officer tried to unlock the lock when he picked it up, but the lock was connected to the hidden shotgun. As soon as the key was inserted into the keyhole, the shotgun hidden behind Baker Klebert rang...

A gunshot, the white police officer fell to the ground, the black and another Asian police officer were distracted, the jigsaw took the opportunity to give the black a knife, and then escaped...

Murphy called to stop, and the crew rearranged the venue. The actor who played the white police officer had to make up and take close-ups to show the tragic death, so that the post-editing period could be cut with the shot just taken.

Baker Klebert also got a joint twist, and the command assistant and two interns tied the elaborate dummy to it.

This killing mechanism is not just a prop, but can actually be activated. It may be laborious to twist a person's bones, but there is no problem with crushing a dummy made of resin.

The filming started again. The Asian police officer dropped the dummy and went to see the black police officer. The black police officer could no longer take care of the victim behind him. He asked him to chase the jigsaw. After the Asian police officer left, under his comment, the machine turned. The man’s hands and feet were twisted one after another. Facing the sound of broken bones and the sound of Baker-Klebert’s simulation, the black police officer covered the neck that was scratched by the knife with one hand, and raised the gun with the other. ...

"Stop!" Murphy put down the camcorder, "This one is over! Go to the next scene."

The crew started busy transitions, and he went back to the monitor to watch the footage just shot.

Many choices here need to be made when editing, especially if it can be shown in the cinema, it must be carefully selected, otherwise it will definitely become NC-17.

There is no doubt that the design of the joint twisting frame comes from the next few parts, and it is more **** and cruel than the ones in between. It is not that Murphy has not considered whether it is appropriate to do this, but the future of this film is still uncertain, he Where does the mind come from to consider the situation of the sequel.

Even if there will be a sequel in the future, that will be after the success of this film.

Only one shot remained behind. The Asian police officer chased the jigsaw. After firing the shot, he thought he had hit the jigsaw. When he approached, he was in an ambush by the agency, and his life was miserable.

Murphy has also made changes here. The shotgun mechanism has been used before. This is replaced by a giant nail bar. Moreover, the Asian police officer stepped on a thin line that might cross the past, but a turn across the entire corridor. board.

In short, even if the police officer used the hurdle movement, he would not be able to dodge the flip, and would be killed by a whole row of giant spikes falling from the sky.

He was also one of the few minorities who died in the film, and he died while conscientiously pursuing the jigsaw.

Murphy paid great attention to the selection of actors. All the people who died after being judged by the jigsaw have the same characteristics, pure white, middle-class or relatively wealthy background...

These are bright on the surface and corrupt inside, let alone not a black person, not even a minority ethnic group.

Although it is not certain whether the film can enter the cinema channel, Murphy is also following some general rules of theatrical film. These rules are the lessons that countless films have summed up with the street, and there is always some benefit to avoiding it.

What is happening in North American society is not particularly clear to him as an outsider, but uniting ethnic minorities has always been the political correctness of Hollywood movies.

The transition work was quickly completed, and Murphy then began shooting the last shot. The Asian police officer chased the jigsaw to death, and blood filled the passage. The main camera gave the jigsaw the last close-up, and all the shooting was officially completed.
