Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    In the dimly lit hall, a high platform was welded with an iron frame, with a transparent above and a transparent pool below.

    Da Mimi was dressed in cool clothes, with chains tied to her body, standing on the high platform, eager to interact with the group performers in the audience, and then the mechanism on the bottom of her feet was opened, and she fell into the pool below.

    "OK!"

    Wen Ziren yelled, indicating that there is no problem, a strong man ran out of the camera, jumped into the pool and lifted Da Mimi up.

    "Pfft~"

    After spitting a few mouthfuls of water, Da Mimi wrapped her soaked suspender skirt with a bath towel, and ran over to ask.

    "Director, can I just now?"

    Wen Ziren frowned: "Yang, I'm sorry, the water splash is too big, and your hair blocked your face when you got into the water, can you do it again."

    "no problem."

    Da Mimi glanced at Cao Xuan next to her, and went to change clothes and blow-dry her hair without saying a word.

    Cao Xuan didn't say a word, as long as the details of the shooting were agreed upon, he would not intervene in the specific shooting, not to mention the big honey, even himself, he had to jump without saying a word.

    The scene of Da Mi Mi is the appearance of the four knights of the apocalypse at the beginning of "You Now You See Me", so it is necessary to catch the eye and let the audience see the awesomeness of the protagonist group at a glance.

    Simply put, this scene is an escape trick.

    The water tank above is a piranha. Da Mimi jumps into the pool below, unchains her body within 1 minute of diving, then swims up and escapes successfully. If the specified time exceeds 1 minute, the piranha above the water tank will be killed.  Falling into the pool, needless to say what will happen.

    There is another routine set up in the movie, that is, Da Mimi pretended to make a mistake in the water, and did not unlock the lock for 1 minute, and then the piranha fell down and dyed the entire pool red.

    Just when everyone thought the magic was wrong and there was a tragedy of human life, Damimi appeared in the corner of the hall and announced that it was all a performance just now.

    Compared with the normal escape magic, this magic is undoubtedly more exciting, and it is absolutely eye-catching.

    That is of course to attract the group actors in the movie, and even for the audience of the movie, it is also a good bridge.

    However, this movie looks very cool, but the actual shooting is very troublesome.

    The plot was filmed in sections. The first time Damimi went into the water was not satisfactory, but with the momentum, she first filmed underwater to unlock the panic scene.

    Then for this scene, Da Mimi soaked back and forth in the water all morning, and finally finished filming, and had to reshoot the scene of falling into the water.

    After all, it is a movie, and it is necessary to consider the aesthetics. The moment of falling into the water must be clearly captured.

    Da Mimi can only change clothes repeatedly, dry her hair, and then come up and dance again.

    After tossing and tossing for a long time, my physical strength is almost exhausted. I used to swim up by myself, but now I have to find a diver who is responsible for safety.

    After repeated shooting four times, Wen Ziren was finally satisfied. Da Mimi wet his body and went to shoot a segment that finally revealed the magic mystery.

    Afterwards, Da Mimi went to change her clothes, and the crew began to toss about the later scenes. In fact, they dyed the pool red, and then kept pouring out, creating a crazy scene of piranhas.

    It is worth mentioning that the piranha is a special effect. Before it was a big honey performance without real objects. Later, the picture of the piranha was synthesized into it, and it was done directly.

    After all, it is impossible for Cao Xuan to really release piranhas to bite Damimi. He thought about releasing other fish, but after experimenting, he couldn¡¯t swim as crazy as he wanted, and it caused trouble for the special effects team.

    Cao Xuan, who ran over in the afternoon, finally came to filming.

    When the pool was filled with red water and the surrounding crowd screamed in horror, he took off his hood and stood silently in the crowd looking at the pool with the corners of his mouth raised.

    "Okay, the actors rest, others clear the scene, and prepare for the night show."

    Wen Ziren yelled, the props, stage management and other staff began to get busy, and the group performers quickly took their money and left.

    A small group of 200 people took away tens of thousands of dollars in one day.

    I have to say, in fact, for the filming of "Now You See Me", a large part of the expenses are group performances.

    Compared with China, Hollywood group performances are really expensive. Of course, they are not as exaggerated as many marketing accounts advocate.

    Why $600-$1,000 a day? It doesn¡¯t take long to make up this kind of news. Many ordinary middle-class individuals in the United States have an annual income of only $50,000. Hollywood group performances also make money like this, and half of the United States has to come to Hollywood.

    In fact, it is not that there are group performers who can get this number, but this is a special feature.

    There are lines and appearances, but maybe only one or two scenes, not as good as a regular actor, but better than an ordinary group performance.room.

    One-on-one is not afraid of anyone. If you get into a chaotic battle, it will be hard to say. Even if you can break out of the encirclement, you will hurt a thousand enemies and hundreds of self-damage.

    It's better to choose a relatively simple and quiet schedule, with Cao Xuan's name, and not afraid to compete head-on with anyone.

    And because of the addition of "Sword Rain", this year's May file is much more intense than previous years.

    However, what is really worth mentioning is that there are only two movies "Ip Man 2" and "Iron Man 2" in the May file.

    As for other films, such as "Like a Dream" by Wu Yanzu and Yuan Quan, "Three Smiles: A Talented Man and a Beautiful Woman" by Xiao Hei Fatty, and the Hollywood animation film "How to Train Your Dragon", it is difficult to pose a threat to the above three films.

    Even the media called the May file a tripartite confrontation, directly ignoring the presence of other movies.

    This is also normal. "Iron Man 2" and "Ip Man 2" are both series of films. The previous films performed well, and the box office of the new film is guaranteed.

    "Sword Rain" has Cao Xuan carrying the flag, and it is even more favored by everyone. After all, Cao Xuan has not rushed to a movie since his debut.

    Previously, even "Save Mr. Me", which had a lot of unpopular themes + literary attributes, finally won 165 million box office.

    "Sword Rain" is Cao Xuan's original martial arts theme. Even if there are many materials that reveal that the film is literary, many people are optimistic that the box office of this film will exceed 200 million.

    Don't ask, to ask is to believe in Cao Xuan!

    Of course, "Sword Rain" is not without disadvantages, that is, in terms of publicity, Cao Xuan can't form strong support at all.

    In the early publicity, Cao Xuan only recorded a few VCRs, and the later roadshow probably couldn't point to him.

    Even Cao Xuan was able to participate in the premiere this time because of the opening ceremony of the World Expo, otherwise he might not be able to make it back.

    Although Fan Xiaopang can also provide some support, but she is filming "The Legend of Zhen Huan" and cannot show up often.

    Zeng Li has always been low-key, and her personality is introverted. It is unrealistic to point out her to lead a team to run a publicity campaign. Most of them are participating in interviews or interviews.

    Other actors either don't know much about publicity, or have too few roles to support them.

    The publicity team of "Sword Rain" is almost depressed. If it weren't for the rumors about Cao Xuan and Zeng Li, they probably would have quit.

    Fortunately, the publicity team quickly changed their minds, shifting the focus away from the artists, and focusing on Penguin Weibo, Mtime.com and several other platforms.

    These platforms have a large number of potential audiences, as long as they can penetrate these platforms, even without the support of many leading actors, the publicity effect will not be bad ?
