Chapter 159
Ask for a monthly pass! Ask for a recommendation ticket!
Filming started again, and by the time Helen Herman returned to the corner, Stephen Sommers was gone, and she knew that Stephen Sommers wouldn't be here forever, after all, she was planning another one with Universal Pictures. series.
Thinking of the big movie planned by Stephen Sommers, Helen Herman knew that she had made a mistake before and was too impatient. Such a super big production is still on paper, and there is no time for the agent to intervene. At this stage, especially Matthew, who was pushed by himself, still needs to concentrate on shooting.
She let out a sigh of relief, and after Matthew's reminder, her state of mind gradually calmed down.
It's not impossible to continue to advance this matter, but it's better not to disturb Matthew before the filming of the film is over. If the film fails, all her jumping up and down will be meaningless.
At the end of the morning's shooting, Matthew was obviously tired. The shooting for more than three hours in a row was almost all action scenes. Even with his physical strength, he couldn't bear it.
Although he is healthy, he is also a normal person.
Fortunately, there is no need to shoot action scenes in the afternoon. The filming plan of the crew is very user-friendly, obviously taking into account the tolerance of the actors. The most recent plan is to shoot action scenes in the morning and literary scenes in the afternoon to avoid excessive fatigue of the actors.
Once a person is too tired, it is difficult to concentrate mentally, and there will definitely be frequent situations during shooting, resulting in constant NG.
Actress Kelly Hu also joined the shooting.
As soon as she finished her makeup and appeared in the studio, she caught everyone's attention and was definitely the center of attention.
What Kelly Hu hangs on her body can't be considered clothes at all, she just uses cloth strips to cover important parts of her body. For a film that maintains the scale of PG-13, she has missed all the places that should be exposed. The places that should not be exposed can also bring people infinite reverie.
Needless to say, Matthew, even the handyman on the crew can see that the biggest meaning of Cassandra's existence as a heroine is to show off her body.
In commercial entertainment films with male characters, female characters, especially heroines, basically exist for this purpose.
The first scene between Matthew and Kelly Hu was very sweet.
"Get ready!" an assistant director's voice shouted from the studio, "All departments get ready! Shooting starts in three minutes."
Accompanied by his shouts, according to the director's request, Matthew lay down on the carpet behind the curtain and waited for the shooting to start.
"..." The voice of an assistant director came over, "The second scene, the first act, start now!"
As soon as the voice fell, Matthew propped his body up and swayed and stood up from the carpet. It seemed that the fall from the sky made him a little dizzy. He couldn't help shaking his head. With all the light, he immediately drew the long sword from his waist...
Unexpectedly, there was some problem with the hanging of the scabbard. The belt just blocked the position where the long sword was drawn. Matthew didn't fully pull it out for the first time. He almost broke the belt because of the excessive force.
"Stop!" director Chuck Russell shouted to stop filming.
The costumer immediately entered the venue to help Matthew adjust his belt and scabbard. This accident happened occasionally during filming, and it was not troublesome to adjust, and filming resumed quickly.
This time, Matthew smoothly pulled out the long sword from his waist, looked around vigilantly, and immediately found the maid next to the bath. - Hu suddenly stood up from the water, using the standard alluring pose of a beautiful woman taking a bath.
Director Chacha - Russell called stop again.
A makeup artist came to Kelly-Hu's place to style her hair,
Let her long hair cover her chest just right.
Kelly Hu was not wearing any clothes on her upper body. When she came out of the water just now, Matthew saw the two dots on her chest and knew that if she continued to shoot without any treatment, Kelly Hu would definitely disappear in the camera. It is a trivial matter for the crew and the actors themselves. The problem is that once the two points on the chest are exposed, the film is likely to become R-rated.
After ten minutes, the makeup artist made Kaili Hu's hair. Matthew stood in his position and didn't move. After the shooting started, he took the same pose again.
Hu Kaili picked up a sword from the bath and put on a very sexy and seductive pose, with the sword pointed directly at Matthew's side.
Matthew was still staring over there, like a normal man seeing a beautiful woman out of the bath.
Although this scene has not been rehearsed, he has deduced it in his heart and practiced it himself. In addition, the type of film is not very strict, so it is easier to deal with it at this time.
After shooting several films in a row, especially the roles he has acted in the last few times, there are many scenes. Matthew's talent is not very good, but it is not very bad. Like most of them, with the increase of shooting experience, With the accumulation of studio practice, he has made some progress.
To participate in the kind of literary film that focuses on performance and character building, maybe he can be skeptical of life by the director and critics, but in this kind of entertainment film, he feels like a duck to water.
"Are you going to kill me?" Hu Kaili pointed at Matthew, "Still staring at me."
Matthew didn't answer, the door suddenly rang behind him, he rushed over with his sword, jumped directly into the bathtub, easily subdued Hu Kaili, passed under her arm with one hand, restrained her body, and covered her mouth , dragged her into the water together.
Although the two were entangled, Matthew focused all his energy on filming. Apart from feeling that Hu Kaili's body was soft, he had no other messy thoughts, and he had to hold his breath when submerged in the water, otherwise he really had to drink Hu Kaili's bath. water...
Matthew felt that the top of his head was submerged in the water, so he turned on Kaili Hu, counted silently for three seconds as the director wanted to go, and then got out of the water. Almost at the same moment, Kaili Hu also got out of the water.
Her hair was messed up by the water, and she was completely naked.
Hu Kaili also saw Matthew, she looked down at her chest, there was a red mark on it, and she couldn't help saying to Matthew, "You are too hard, it hurts me."
"Sorry." Matthew didn't do it on purpose. Hu Kaili got along well with him before, and immediately said, "I may have exerted too much force."
He raised his right hand, glanced at the wrist guard, and said, "The wrist guard is pressing against you."
The assistants of the two came over at this time. Hu Kaili took the blanket from the assistant and put it on her body and got out of the bath first. Maybe the water was slippery. She almost fell when she stepped over the bath table, and Matthew quickly helped her. She stepped out of the bath.
"Thank you." Hu Kelly wrapped her body in a blanket.
Matthew also took the blanket Mila handed over, put it on his body, and said, "You're too kind."
The two smiled and didn't say anything else. Instead, they looked at the director together. The director, Chuck Russell, gave a thumbs up to this side, indicating that this line was passed.
"Okay..." Matthew wiped the water off his face with a blanket, "Today is over."
Next, there are other scenes to be filmed, but there are no scenes belonging to the male and female protagonists, otherwise the director will not let two people shoot this scene.
After such a scene, whether it's Matthew or Kaili Hu, all the looks are ruined, and it will take several hours to re-make up.
Now you can just remove your makeup and go to get off work.
The hero Matthew enjoys an independent dressing room and a dedicated makeup artist, and the heroine Hu Kaili is no exception. As far as he knows, Hu Kaili's qualifications far exceed him. Fang - Zimmer, Mickey - Rock, Russell - Crowe, Ralph - Fiennes and many other stars have cooperated.
She can become a heroine, and she does have a certain amount of capital.
Taking off the heavy costume, sitting quietly in front of the vanity mirror, Matthew closed his eyes and patiently waited for the makeup artist to remove the wig. This is a time-consuming and labor-intensive project. It can't be seen in the lens, and it takes a lot of hands and feet.
"Matthew..." Mila-Wang came over and said, "I put all your things in the backpack, and the phone is in the second mezzanine."
She told Matthew in the morning that there was something to do this afternoon, and Matthew didn't embarrass her, he waved his hand and said, "Go, I'll call you again if something happens."
As long as he is still in the crew, Mira-Wang only needs to be responsible to him, and don't pay too much attention to other affairs in the crew.
Of course, her salary still has to be paid by the crew.
Matthew also knew that most of the stars brought their assistants into the crew, and from the day they entered the crew to shoot, the crew had to pay their assistants salaries.
This is more convenient than the crew providing personal assistants, after all, stars have a lot of private affairs that are not visible.
Sitting here is boring, Matthew is also thinking, does he need to hire a personal assistant? You can wait for the show to be released to see the response. If it is successful, he will be able to make a name for himself, and he will also need someone to help with chores. If it fails, there is no need to think about it.
If you hire a small assistant, you don't need to spend too much. As long as you can become famous, this cost is not a problem.
After removing the makeup, the makeup artist left, Matthew changed back to his clothes, went to get his backpack, and was about to go home from get off work. The door of the dressing room was knocked from outside.
"Come in," Matthew said.
The door opened from the outside, revealing a face with a slightly wretched smile. After he came in, he saw Ma Xiu carrying his backpack and asked, "Are you ready to get off work?"
"Yeah." Matthew glanced at Dave Villa and asked directly, "Are you okay?"
Dave Villa smiled and scratched his head, "It's something." He took a step closer, lowered his voice, and said, "Do you have time, Matthew? There's something I want to talk to you about alone."
