Chatty Hollywood

Is Charlotte telling the truth?

of course not.

He was talking more about fantasy, about the future.

It's just that this set of fantasies sounds very real and very scientific.

——Well, this seems to be called science fiction.

What he actually used was of course spells——

The ghost of River Phoenix was attached to the black stockings that were used as a hood!

The ghost itself will naturally attract Yin Qi, coupled with the strengthening of Charlotte's spell, the Yin Qi on the black stockings becomes very strong.

Human eyes cannot see Yin Qi, but Charlotte gave Edison Yang a special filter, but it can be photographed.

This is the essence of the black smoke on the headless horseman's neck seen through the camera.

Moreover, if you don't know a little bit of magic, whoever puts that stocking on your head will be possessed by Rui Fan.

Charlotte hopes that through this method, Rui Fan can truly "play" the Headless Horseman.

——Of course, Rui Fan has a problem with the fact that he must be attached to the stockings.

But who makes this thing the lightest and most suitable?

The poor ghost's opinion was ignored...

However, these words cannot be told to other people.

Therefore, there are those specious black technologies that Charlotte mentioned earlier.

Those technologies are certainly not impossible, but they are not now in 1995.

In the 21st century, the era after "Avengers 2", the green screen special effects technology has been very mature, and the motion capture technology has also developed for several generations. It is relatively easy to realize what Charlotte said.

——Of course, it may be more difficult to load the special effects synchronously when shooting, but it has already revealed the clues.

This is like the difference between the Nautilus in Jules Verne's novel and the Nautilus, the world's first nuclear submarine...

***********

In any case, the shape of the headless horseman has been settled, and the shooting after that will be easier.

After all, although the story is exquisite and interesting, "Sleepy Hollow" is a commercial film after all, and it will not require the acting skills of the actors to the point of perversion.

Generally speaking, the shooting in Hudson Canyon, the location location, was relatively smooth.

Although at the shooting scene, everyone felt that it was a bit against the harmony to see the stuntmen wearing black stockings playing the headless horsemen.

But after watching the original film, no one said anything——

The headless horseman in the original film, with a faint black smoke like a flame rising from his neck, coupled with his black coat, black armor and black horse, is simply the god of death from hell.

That momentum!

Anyway, the very oriental description of "can stop children crying at night" easily flashed through Charlotte's mind.

——Well, considering that the headless horseman has no head, I'm afraid it just doesn't have much momentum, and children will be frightened just as much.

However, after watching the original film, Christopher Walken was not very satisfied with his appearance.

In his words, it is:

"If the aura of the headless horseman I play with the head is not as good as the one without the head, then I might as well just give the two stuntmen the pay."

For this reason, he not only fine-tuned the look with Charlotte's support, but also increased his investment in shooting a lot.

"Walken can be regarded as showing the full strength of Oscar's Best Supporting Actor."

After watching his performance, Charlotte secretly said this to the assistant director Lao Qiang.

Of course, the Headless Horseman's aura is not only due to the special effects of Charlotte's spells.

The one who really brings the aura is actually River Phoenix who is attached to the stuntman.

Although he didn't play a similar villain BOSS before his death, as a talented actor full of aura, he just attached himself to the body of a stuntman, and after watching Christopher Walken's performance a few times, he can grasp the essence.

In addition, as a ghost, Rui Fan's ability to influence people's hearts is naturally stronger than that of ordinary people.

If it wasn't for Walken's high acting skills and timely adjustments when he found something wrong, I am afraid that in "Sleepy Hollow", there will really be a situation where the copycat acting skills overwhelm the original...

However, other than that, there were no unexpected problems during the shooting.

While a few scenes around the tree of death made everyone feel a little hairy about the horror oozing from the tree, nothing happened.

After all, "The Tree of Death" was just a sham before the movie came out.

In terms of trouble, what is more troublesome is a few shots that really need special effects——

In one of them, the hero Ichab meets Katrina's stepmother's sister in the Black Forest. The latter is a witch. At Ichab's request, she is prophesying and guiding him.

During this process, the witch's face will suddenly become like a female ghost or a rotting zombie, and her eyeballs will stick out like poisonous snakes.

To achieve this scene, it should have relied on computer special effects or special effects makeup, but it is relatively simple here in Charlotte——

After all, being scary can almost be said to be the instinct of ghosts, and Charlotte, who is good at dealing with ghosts, also has similar means.

He achieved this effect by sneaking an illusion on the face of the actor playing the witch.

And in order not to scare other people during filming, he also specially recited a protective spell to everyone in the crew.

The name of this spell is "Not Seeing Mount Tai", which is the exact opposite of the "One Leaf Blinding Eye" that he had cast before.

The function of the latter is to make ghosts unable to see people, while the former is to make people unable to see ghosts.

In other words, you can't see the scary methods used by ghosts.

For some little ghosts who only know some scary illusions, this is a very good countermeasure.

Out of sight, out of mind!

But when dealing with those powerful ghosts who have actual means of hurting people, using this move is completely suicidal.

It is said that in the past, this trick was used by Taoist priests on some timid mortals to prevent them from being frightened by the phantoms of ghosts and ghosts.

As for himself, people who can cast spells would never use this trick.

After all, if you are afraid of ghosts, what spells do you need to learn?

However, when Charlotte was shooting the film, it was just right to use this spell——

"Can't they all see?"

In the eyes of Charlize, who was not cast by Charlotte, the face of the actor who played the witch just now had a terrifying change.

However, everyone on the set turned a blind eye and did what they should do, even Ichab Karan who stood opposite the witch, that is, Depp.

"My spell is to make them invisible."

Charlotte whispered,

"I intend to achieve the special effects of this scene through magic, so as long as my specially processed camera can record it, that's fine."

"That's how it is. Indeed, it's troublesome for others to see it."

The girl nodded, but then asked Charlotte about the Saturn Award.
