478 Chapter 473 Hatton Town (seeking subscription, tickets) (1/2)
On January 24th, Lehmann led the crew to Hatton, Oklahoma.
This is the main location in the movie. Basically, 80% of the scenes in the movie will be shot in a small town.
After arriving at the destination at 3 in the afternoon, Lehman first brought the person in charge of the location team to the town mayor to say hello, and also set aside some funds for supporting the maintenance and construction of the town.
In other words, I spent this one hundred thousand dollars in exchange for the care when shooting.
Otherwise, a random incident can affect the crew.
We contracted several hostels in the small town, and arranged them a little bit, which were temporary residences.
Seeing that the crew were still arranging shooting equipment, the tired-looking actors brought their assistants and managers into various rooms with their luggage, Lehmann clapped his hands and said:
”Everyone settle down first, and gather on time tomorrow morning. Don't be late.”
After the order, Lehman asked Black next to him: ”Are the people in the digital field here?”
”Here, the studio they built there is surveying and mapping on the spot, collecting various data.”
The ”Mist” crew spent close to 12 million U.S. dollars for the special effects rendering. For a small workshop in the digital field, it is a big business that is difficult to meet.
After all, there are many special effects studios on the market, and the reputation is also the biggest in Industrial Light and Magic.
Although I don't know why I was selected by Lehmann to subcontract the work, this does not affect the great importance of this cooperation in the digital field.
At this moment, two small container trucks are parked on the open space at the entrance of the town. Under the command of the staff, in addition to the crew members are still disassembling equipment, the digital field is also carrying various equipment.
Afterwards, Lehman introduced Thomas, the art team, the lighting team, and one of the producers Blake, and other major leaders of the crew to the digital field.
This can be regarded as an acquaintance, and you can consult these people for any problems during the shooting.
Several people chatted, and the digital technician named Scott Bryant next to him saw that Lehman was curious about some surveying and mapping equipment, and said with a smile: ”Director Lehman, in order to cooperate with the filming of the ”Mist” crew and We have prepared a complete set of required lens effects to ensure that all your requirements can be met.”
While talking, he carefully explained the operation essentials of the equipment to several people.
In fact, it is their greatest sincerity to send so many technicians in the digital field to cooperate throughout the entire process.
...
In the temporarily rented residential house in the small town, Lehman is directing the staff to set up the scene. This will be the starting point of ”The Mist” and the shooting location of the first shot.
Nicholas Cage and his uncle’s old partner Al Pacino are generally standard methodological acting styles.
This type of actor is very particular about integrating the emotion of the role into himself and then showing it.
