Legendary Hollywood Producer

The crew of the crew traversed a small town in Los Angeles and finally stopped on a hillside.

The next scene to be filmed is that the agent "Ethan" is chased and killed by the big villain's younger brother. He drives and flees while fighting back with a gun.

This location is the top of a mountain, the road is fairly flat, and there is a cliff, which is very suitable for the next shooting.

All the formalities have been completed long ago, and immediately after the arrival of the large crew of the crew, they began to be busy.

The special effects team and the pyrotechnic team are discussing various designs during the shootout. The camera team is busy arranging the camera positions, and Roman is not idle. He finds the director Christopher McCauley and talks about some things about the next shooting scene. .

"The simulated weapons have been shipped, and the gunpowder configuration has been completed."

This is a live shooting, not a computer synthesis. All the required props need to be confirmed by a third-party guarantee agency, which is Allianz Fire Insurance Company, before they can be used. After all, the lethality of those gunpowder and simulation weapons is still there. If you are not careful, it will hurt the crew members, but you can't be sloppy.

"Well, I will pay attention to shooting safety." Director Christopher Macaulay clearly understood the meaning of Roman's words.

After the exhortation, the final confirmation came.

"Camera No. 1 is placed on the front of the vehicle, and Camera No. 2 is placed on the top of the **** on the left side." The director's words continue, "The two cameras use wide-angle shooting to capture the entire shooting process. Also, I The wireless camera you need."

"Ready." Scene Scott asked director Christopher Macaulay to look at the prepared camera.

"This is the No. 3 machine, put it in the protagonist's car, and use it to capture Tom Cruise's facial expressions."

Obviously, the next shot has a close-up of Tom Cruise's face.

When Scott was about to leave, the director Christopher Macaulay reminded him: "Fix it, and the speed of the waiting meeting will be very fast."

In this shooting, except for the fake weapons, everything else will be the same as in reality, just to ensure its authenticity.

After explaining this, the director went to the actor's side and began to order: "Tom Cruise, you will be careful later, don't get hurt."

Although the most dangerous action of turning back while driving a car was done by a substitute, he still performed the chase scene in front of him. This is also Tom Cruise's insistence. According to Roman's intention, he hopes that all dangerous scenes will be completed by the substitute. But in that case, Tom Cruise would not be the "Desperate Saburo", he did pay a lot for this series, and many dangerous shots require real shots in person. People who came from Allianz Fire Insurance had quite objection to this, but fortunately they did not withdraw the insurance. Otherwise, their withdrawal would add a lot of trouble to the production of this movie. In Hollywood filming, insurance business is also a very important part of it, and it cannot be easily missed.

"Director, I will pay attention to safety, please rest assured."

Christopher Macaulay wanted to exhort a few more words, but seeing Tom Cruise's good attitude and tone different from the past, after all, he didn't say much.

"Clearance?"

"The clearance is complete."

"Camera?"

"Ready."

"..."

After a series of inquiries, the director went on to say: "All departments are preparing..." Roman also stood behind the director's camera, watching the next shooting, "The 113th scene, the 25th scene, start "With the play of the scene, Roman's attention became more concentrated, and the dangerous shots also had Tom Cruise's participation, so he couldn't help but take care of it. If something happened, he would also have to deal with it as soon as possible. . Risking the actor's injury and possibly delaying production schedules and time issues, he also underwent a lot of pressure to support Tom Cruise's determination. He wants to shoot as real as possible, and Roman, as a producer, is also willing to satisfy his ideas. Everything is for the market performance and audience reputation of the "Mission Impossible" series.

The sound of the car's motors continued to sound, and a silver-gray car appeared first from the camera. Tom Cruise was sitting in the driving position, his face calmly controlling the car to rush into the road up the mountain because the speed of the car was very fast. The dirt road and the dusty visual sense are quite good. Behind him, the villain played by the speed stuntman also played, and five cars whizzed past.

"Cut! This is over." As soon as director Christopher Macaulay said, the crew members immediately took action.

Arrange new props, reset the camera position...

"Tom Cruise, you did a great job." Roman said with a thumbs up to Tom Cruise who got out of the car.

"Unfortunately, I can't take all the real shots. I control the steering wheel with one hand, and I can't focus on driving. It's a bit reluctant, and I can't do it well." Tom Cruise said with a little regret, and then he again Put your gaze on the shot you just shot, "Director, can you let me see how it works?"

Christopher Macaulay re-adjusted the camera and said: "Look at it, the chase scene has a very strong sense of picture."

After reading it carefully, Tom Cruise was also very satisfied with his performance.

Half an hour later, the substitute who was waiting for Tom Cruise's car continued to shoot the counterattack.

With the beginning of the shootout, the props team became busy.

Because the vehicle will roll over and lose control after being hit by a bullet, it is obviously too dangerous to shoot with a real car, so it is necessary to use a vehicle model made in advance.

The chase is still a real car, and if it is destroyed, the model is used.

Falling bumpers, bumpy car doors, and shattered car window glass, these tragic sights also indicate to the audience how dangerous an out-of-control car is.

The skills of several stunt drivers are very good, and the simulated car accident scene is also realistic enough. Although it is a model, it also shows the posture of driving a real car. After the filming was completed, the medical staff waiting around quickly checked whether they were injured. After all, it is necessary to simulate the loss of control and damage of the vehicle. Even if it is a model, it crashes like that. inevitable.

Fortunately, they are very professional and have a lot of experience in protecting themselves. None of them suffered serious injuries. At most, they were splashed with glass **** and shed a little blood. Once the medical staff bandaged them, there was nothing wrong with them.

Everyone in the crew was happy to be able to successfully complete the shooting of the dangerous scene. Because the actor who played the role of ‘Lindesai’ had to quit the crew after filming, Roman also took advantage of the opportunity to organize a farewell party...
