After Zhao Wei's sex scene, there was the sex scene between Chen Kun and Zhou Xun, but not on the bed, but by the pool. This was a dream and needed a real make-love. Shao Shuaijun discussed with the director team how to shoot it.
There were many, so I finally decided to use a stand-in.
This stand-in is very interesting. Through the borrowing of the camera, Zhou Xun is asked to hold a girl and Chen Kun is held to a boy. Each performs a confused and infatuated performance. Then the scene is cut to one piece, and it becomes two people having sex.
The battle. Zhou Xun is really dedicated. There was a scene before where he was required to verify his true identity. Zhou Xun appeared completely naked. Of course, the key parts were covered.
Shao Shuaijun called to start, and Zhou Xun and the female stand-in had already set up their poses. They were both naked and hugging each other. Huang Jiahui carried the camera to record Zhou Xun's expression.
"Kut, let's start this section again! Zhou Xun, you still have to let go, look more lewd, raise your head, and show the pain and joy caused by sprinting!" Shao Shuaijun stared at the monitor and shouted with a loudspeaker.
After coming back.
"Stuck, it's not enough. Be a little harder, let go a little more, bite your lips, hold your breath, hold your chest up and your head up, and grab the opponent's shoulders with both hands. Start!"
Shao Shuaijun transformed into a salty and wet demon, guiding Zhou Xun step by step on how to act as a charming fairy. The salty and wet skills passed down from the shoe-selling director made people around him marvel. Even though the director was young, this expert was able to make a difference as soon as he made a move.
Do you know if there is one?
Under Shao Shuaijun's careful training, Zhou Xun completed the shooting task brilliantly. After Chen Kun got stuck a few times, he completed the shooting with the big man in his arms amidst everyone's laughter.
"Very good. You two have worked hard, and the stuntman has also worked hard. Zhou Xun, hurry up and change your clothes. We still have your scene to shoot in the afternoon."
The following scene is the most terrifying scene in the movie, Painted Skin!
Xiao Wei, played by Zhou Xun, took off his human skin after Zhao Wei, played by Zhao Wei, arrived, put it on a chair and used a brush to paint and touch up makeup. After taking off the human skin, Xiao Wei was a body covered with
The black body of the maggot will be created using special effects during later synthesis.
But her human skin was actually made from scratch.
This pair of human skin was specially custom-made from the United States and made of high-tech materials. In order to have the delicate texture of human skin, it was not only designed to be light and thin, but also able to clearly show the facial expressions of the wearer. It took a total of
More than one million dollars were spent to make this skin. This human skin must be kept at a temperature of 15°C at all times during transportation, otherwise the material will harden and turn black.
The human skin is made based on Zhou Xun's face. In order to show the peeling phase, makeup artist Bobo has to help Zhou Xun put on this skin. This time is expected to be 3 hours. In other words, Zhou Xun needs to be at 15℃
temperature, remain naked for 3 hours.
Just to pursue the scenes in the movie that are less than 6 seconds long.
It's really hard.
"Your external relations production team should prepare soup to prevent Zhou Xun from freezing." Shao Shuaijun said a few words and left the dressing room.
By the afternoon, Zhou Xun's skin was also worn.
"Sister Bobo, how are you? Is everything OK?" Shao Shuaijun rushed to the dressing room and asked.
Wu Baoling pushed Zhou Xun out and said, "Director, let's take a look. Has Xiao Zhou's appearance changed?"
"Wow, it's very good, just like a real person."
Zhou Xun is covered in human skin. If you don't look carefully, you won't be able to tell that he is wearing a mask. Every frown and every smile is clearly displayed on his face.
"Isn't it? Makeup is really difficult to apply. This skin is more suitable for Western skin. If there are no blood vessels under the skin, it will appear white. However, the skin color of our Asians is yellowish. It is really difficult to color the skin. And it is small.
Zhou also suffered a lot because the glue smelled terrible."
"Zhou Xun, thank you for your hard work. Let's hurry up and shoot so that you can be relieved as soon as possible!" Shao Shuaijun nodded with satisfaction and shouted to everyone on the set, "Hurry up and get into your positions. The filming is about to start. Don't wait too long, you're looking for scolding, aren't you! Zhao
Where's Wei, where's Zhao Wei, go find her for me, we've scheduled her for filming in the afternoon, why doesn't she come?"
"Come on, come on, director"
Zhao Wei ran into the scene in a panic: "Just now..."
"Don't explain to me, just go and touch up your makeup quickly. The shooting will start in ten minutes."
The human skin was a little troublesome, but the shooting went very smoothly. Zhao Wei's frightened expression was just right, and Zhou Xun's confident and coquettish look was also just right. Especially when the human skin was spread on a chair, and Zhou Xun drew with a pen, he was standing under surveillance.
Shao Shuaijun, who was behind the machine, felt a creepy smell.
"Card, perfect, today's show is over, call it a day!"
After Shao Shuaijun called it a day, he and the crew hurriedly moved out of the Qinhan Ancient Town. The scenes here were completely over, and there was no longer any need to maintain the rental of this large scene. From July to mid-October,
In more than three months, the expenditure in this Qin and Han ancient town alone reached more than 30 million, which is enough to scare many directors.
After leaving here, the crew stayed at Yangcheng Street in Hengdian. A cave was built here half a month ago to shoot the most exciting human-monster battle. In the original version of "Painted Skin", Wang Sheng's transformation after being confused was so fast that it seemed
It's very mysterious. In order to make a change, Shao Shuaijun set up a human-monster battle to advance the plot and let Xiao Wei feel Wang Sheng's true love for Pei Rong and be moved.
At the same time, this will also be the most exciting fighting scene in the film, which is several times more exciting than the camp raid at the beginning.
In order to achieve the desired effect of a big scene, the split shots alone were as thick as a notebook, which took the director's team several days to draw. The props team, lighting team, and photography team held meetings again and again, and there were rehearsals.
It took several days. Finally, at the end of October, the filming of this transvestite war started.
More than a hundred troupes, disguised as various monsters, fought with Wang Jiajun in the cave.
Every shot change requires half an hour of props arrangement.
Every time a situation occurs and is resolved, Shao Shuaijun feels that he has experienced something more.
A great director must be able to control big scenes.
The subtle adjustments of personnel, camera placement, props and lighting effects, how to arrange electrified scenes. How to imagine the post-production effects in the chaos, and then express your own ideas.
All of this is like an enlightenment.
Shao Shuaijun's experience is rapidly increasing.
It's like breaking through a bottleneck, and there is a large smooth road behind, and you can run fast.
Without directing such a scene personally, it is impossible to imagine what the director should do.
Time continues.
From the end of October to the beginning of November, a human-monster war took place after a week of hard work.
Finally, in the evening of this day, the last shot was perfectly displayed in the camera.
Slowly turn off the monitor.
Shao Shuaijun stood up, and a sound came from the loudspeaker: "Card!"
This means that "Painted Skin" is finished!
There were roaring cheers in his ears, and there were smiling faces in his eyes. Shao Shuaijun smiled slightly. It felt so good.
