The Director of Music Department

"Music Department Director ()"

I have to say that in some respects, China is indeed not as good as Hollywood.

Especially in terms of brain holes.

Wang Yifan only provided concept drawings of several chariots that he could remember.

But more is to provide them with a reference.

Understand, his thoughts and needs.

In the end, the group of people like Minik gave Wang Yifan a huge surprise.

In a soundstage at Mina Films' studio, the first models were put on display racks.

Some people may not understand, why make a model?

These models are not used in filming.

But in fact, for these props, especially the chariots, it is absolutely not enough to have conceptual drawings.

As for refitting cars, the amount of engineering is huge, so most of them first produce concept drawings, then make them into models, and finally carry out physical transformation based on the models and concept drawings.

And these models are not useless, on the contrary, after these models are released in the future, they will be models of peripheral products of the movie.

The most conspicuous place on the display stand is not the car of the hero Max, nor the war machine of the heroine Firoza.

It's the electric float of the mysterious guitarist!

Minik introduced Wang Yifan excitedly.

"The electric float is designed according to your idea of ​​a fire-breathing guitar player. It is equipped with giant speakers, and there are several taiko drummers at the rear of the car. It is equipped with the double-necked fire guitar of an electric warrior to encourage the team to move forward. This The cars are insane, the moving stage with all the speakers, and the fire-breathing guitar you came up with was the highlight.” Minik loved the job.

"I even want to own such an electronic music float. It is so cool. I believe that when the movie is made, it will definitely shock people, hahaha!" Minick said excitedly.

"Is this car usable after refitting?" Wang Yifan was still a little worried, because these refitted cars are like giant war beasts. Whether such a car can be truly practical in the desert environment is also a question he needs to consider .

"Don't worry, there is no problem, we already have a complete solution!" Minick is very confident about this.

"The appearance of these cars is cool, but in fact, the internal modification is even cooler. Everyone will fall in love with this kind of tank. They are simply walking war machines!" Minick continued.

Watching them side by side gave Wang Yifan the greatest feeling. On the contrary, how crazy and messy Americans are when they change their cars, as can be seen from these models.

And seeing Minnick's excited look, Wang Yifan didn't want to say anything more, the people on Laomei's side just like to play, and the more crazy things they like, the more they like them.

As for vehicles, Wang Yifan is an out-and-out layman. His requirement is that these modified cars should be cool enough, and the others are secondary.

Of course, these modified cars themselves are not cheap.

According to Minik's introduction, the cost of just a few main characters' chariots is definitely not low.

Putting it in other movies can definitely be regarded as a sky-high price.

For example, Firoza's war machine cost millions of dollars to modify!

The other large chariots also cost a lot, but the results are indeed shocking.

Of course, the coolness of "Mad Max Fury Road" is not only these wild and violent chariots with different shapes, but also many other things, which are equally cool.

The film will use a large number of stunt personnel. For this reason, a professional acrobat from the circus was hired for many years. Many stunts rely on on-site shooting. In addition to the skills of the stunt personnel, some professional equipment is also being prepared.

In fact, if you want to play high-end and difficult moves, you really have to admire the degree of death of the old and beautiful people.

For example, chariots, just look at Minik's attitude.

Many times in our country, when choosing a vehicle, most of the priorities are safety and the like, but many of them don't look at this at all.

Most of the time, they focus more on cool!

Do you think that the most popular cars on Laomei's side are those small cars, no, all kinds of heavy vehicles are the most popular on their side.

Especially trucks with rough lines and heavy-duty pickups are their favorites.

Why do you say they are capable of killing? Because there was a scene in the shooting script that required the modified car to perform a spectacular crash effect, the stunt crew needed to find the safest way to flip the locomotive.

In order to solve this problem, the stunt personnel specially made a flat steel plate and installed it under the car. It can be retracted after hitting the ground, so that the stunt driver can control the car when the car turns over.

And this brand-new method makes the shooting of flipping locomotives quite safe. During a test, a mechanic flipped 8 and a half laps.

Imagine the concept of turning eight and a half times.

And what's so special is not that the person is flipping, but the car is flipping!

This can be said to be an action that can break the record in the movie world.

Of course, in the early years of Hong Kong Island movies, there were also many extremely "death" stunts, but in recent years, few people would attempt such high-risk and difficult stunts.

Because of that year, many people's attitudes towards movies were really, very focused.

Many stuntmen can be said to be really desperate.

Just like the big brother Cheng in the previous life, why would a scene be played repeatedly several times in a movie, because he, the action, was done by the actor himself.

At that time, the eldest brother Cheng was already a famous star, and he deserved to be popular even if he worked so hard.

But today, this situation is almost invisible.

Some people, even if they are a bit worn out, can stop filming. If they can persist in filming, they will be able to hype that they are dedicated!

But in Hollywood, many stuntmen still insist on doing such high-risk moves.

Back then, when the truck driver was filming "True Lies", it is said that there was a scene shot that was hung on a helicopter, and the director held the camera from inside the helicopter and leaned out to shoot.

It can definitely be said to be a typical example of not being crazy and not surviving!

In fact, in the golden age of Hong Kong Island movies, it was actually no worse than this.

Some directors, in order to make movies, do everything they can.

There is a horror film director who actually made the actors eat rotten food in order to make the shooting more realistic. Anyway, it is outrageous.

Also, in order to film a scene where a person is bitten by a dog and the vicious dog is subdued, the director starved the wolf dog for several days without telling the actor in advance. As a result, the actor was almost killed by the dog on the spot!

This situation is not to say everywhere, but it is definitely very common!

Therefore, it was not unreasonable for Hong Kong Island movies to come out frequently at that time.

But what about today?

Many filmmakers of the older generation have also begun to enjoy it, and many actors have also begun to protect themselves more, or they will not make such a big sacrifice for a movie.

But here in Hollywood, don't look at many actors. It seems that they are said to be a vase for face. But many times, their professionalism is really unmatched by many young actors.
