~： 246 - Fly to New York

The time gradually entered the middle of November, and the crew also started the final scenes here, most of which were fragmentary scenes of Christian Bale.

On the set of Clear Water Bay, the crew welcomed more local group performances for the first time. Christian Bale stole an apple on the street for a while, and then began to be arrested by the police again. After the camera passed, it began to be black and black again.

These are the footage of Bruce Wayne, who goes deep into the lower classes of society and understands crime.

Probably after the difficult shooting in the early stage and the torture of the action scenes directed by the action, Christian Bale's state was much more stable when he was shooting such fragmentary scenes.

At least it won't appear that after a scene is finished, it will take a few minutes before the show will appear, and his perfect performance during the time it starts up has also won unanimous praise from everyone in the crew.

"How about it, Tim, at least we definitely picked the right guy for the male lead, didn't we?"

Today's shot is Zach Snyder, and Wayne and Tim Burton are whispering between shots.

Tim Burton nodded. "Yes, he saved us a lot of shooting time, and I didn't expect it to be so smooth."

On the set, there were several big men lying beside Christian Bale. A group of police officers suddenly rushed in, twisted his arm behind him, and walked out of the camera range.

"cut, this is no problem." Zach Snyder cherishes this opportunity, even if it is a shot of the camera, he can learn a lot by himself.

Being able to control a crew of nearly 200 people, coordinate various departments, and shoot footage that meets the director's expectations is a very rare opportunity to exercise. Unfortunately, the footage here has already been filmed.

"Ok, pack up, we'll fly directly to New York tomorrow." Wayne shouted from the megaphone that Zach Snyder handed over from his chair. "After arriving at the Big Apple, everyone on the crew will take two days off!"

"Oh!"

After speaking, he smiled and shook his head, ignoring the booing of the crew, jumped out of the chair, beckoned to the core team, turned and walked into the director's trailer.

After a while, the three assistant directors, producers, directors of photography, lighting, props, sets, etc. all got on the trailer one by one.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Wayne reached out and tapped the table, and after everyone looked at him, he said, "Zach, the same rules, all the film after shooting is divided into two parts for preservation, and one for the Hotel safe, one copy is deposited in the bank."

"No problem, I'll deal with the film first after getting off the plane." Zach Snyder straightened his upper body and patted his chest.

Glancing around the crowd in the car, he looked at Tim Burton and Luke Simmons. "The logistical issues in New York, the lodging issues and the street usage issues, we have to make sure we communicate well, and we must not have any more problems.

With such a large investment in this film, these factors must not be allowed to affect the filming, resulting in a delay in the completion time. The film must be released in the summer program in May next year. "

This is his masterpiece that has reached the beginning of the summer season again after a lapse of one year. Whether it is Hollywood insiders, various media, and even a large number of public fans, they are all waiting to see what the Batman in his hands will do. Different, absolutely can't appear any moth.

"Don't worry." Luke Simmons nodded when he saw that Tim Burton didn't say anything. "The preliminary work has been done, and this time, I will go to confirm everything again."

After saying these two things, Wayne suddenly straightened his face and stretched out a finger in front of everyone. "After you arrive at the Big Apple, manage your staff well, if you let me know that you're in trouble because you smoked too much or smoked contraband.

Then there is no emotion to talk about, there is no chance, listen carefully, there is no chance, I will directly use the contract to speak! This scope also includes you, I don't care if there is an accident, whoever has an accident, whoever gets out! "

New York is no better than this, in that chaotic metropolis, it's too easy to get those inducement contraband, it can be said that there are dealers on every street after dark.

Under Wayne's icy gaze, several department heads nodded slightly. Seeing that they all understood what he meant, he waved his hand, indicating that they should all go away, nothing to do.

"Tim, this is just the beginning."

After everyone got off the trailer and went to the director to clean up the set, Wayne said to Tim Burton: "I don't expect the filming in New York to be as smooth as it is here, as long as the actors are in the group and they are in the studio. It’s good to finish the filming within the planned time.”

When he thinks of the bad things about filming "Joker", he feels that the city of New York is evil, and he will murmur in his mind, maybe he is not suitable to work in that Metropolis?

Speaking of this, Tim Burton raised his hand and patted his forehead and said: "By the way, the little actor who played little Bruce Wayne, his parents wanted to shoot him first, I agreed, because the kid His parents are still responsible and don't want him to waste too much study time."

"Ok, no problem." Wayne agreed. "Anyway, there are not many scenes. The scenes of Bruce Wayne and Thomas Wayne will be shot first."

This is not a separate film. After the release, if fans are careful enough, they will find that little Bruce Wayne and Thomas Wayne are still the two actors in "Joker".

In fact, for the first "Batman", there were not many changes in these personnel and stories. The most changed places will appear in the post-editing work and the structure of the film.

Once Christopher Nolan's first film used the editing method and narrative method that disrupted the timeline, and if Wayne did the same, the finished film would undoubtedly have no imprint of his film.

The two situations are completely different. Bruce Wayne is not frozen by Warner Bros., and Batman is still the most familiar superhero.

Almost everyone knows that when Bruce Wayne was a child, his parents were killed in a robbery, and there are many different versions of the origin of the story of the death of both parents.

Wayne's purpose is very clear. Now that "Joker" has been mentioned, he will continue the story in "Joker" and use the version that appears in this film to deepen the impression of public fans.

Because he witnessed the death of his parents since he was a child, when young Bruce Wayne became an adult, he became the Batman who fought criminals and safeguarded justice in Gotham City. Even children knew this story.

But how did Bruce Wayne become Batman, and his life experience from childhood to adulthood was blank.

Wayne is shooting this "Batman" in his hands, but he spends a lot of time exploring Bruce Wayne's motives and reasons for becoming Batman.

So at the beginning of the film, he had already made a design. In the dusk, groups of bats flew by, and under the illumination of light and shadow, a huge Batman logo was formed in the air.

It can be said that with such an opening design, Wayne interprets the tone of the film. This film is about the birth of Batman.

And he has already made a plan. When the film is edited later, he will use the linear narrative that he is good at to minimize the use of interrupting the timeline. This can greatly reduce the threshold for watching movies, so that even children can understand.

After all, he is different from Christopher Nolan. Wayne will never include private goods in the film. When Nolan was filming "Batman", he had the meaning of proving himself in it, but Wayne didn't have to care about that.

What this first film needs is to lower the threshold for watching movies, create greater influence among ordinary movie fans, and lay a solid fan base for the second movie, and when it comes to the second movie, he will consider burying Enter more clues, leading to another DC superhero.

"Are you sure you don't want to go out for a walk?"

The crew packed everything up, and all the staff returned to the hotel. Since they were leaving tomorrow on a plane chartered by Warner Brothers, many of the staff walked out of the hotel and wanted to take a good look at this oriental city before leaving.

Naomi Watts stood by the hotel window, looked down at the staff walking out the hotel door, and turned to look at Wayne. "Maybe we should go out for a walk too, or maybe we can go buy some souvenirs, I've heard luxury is cheap here."

Wayne put down the notebook flipped in his hand, looked up and found that it was not only Naomi Watts who wanted to go out, but assistant Miss Nina also looked at herself with bright eyes when she heard the luxury goods.

"Hey, don't look at me like that, if you want to go out, you can go together, I still have a shooting plan to sort out. Nina, you're not willing to spend money to buy things. Going to luxury stores is also a matter of reading magazines in hotels. What's the difference? I really don't know what's the use of saving so much money. UU reading "

The assistant lady pouted, looked at Naomi Watts, and continued to flip through the magazine in her hand. If the boss doesn't go out, she will definitely not be able to go out. Who knows if he has anything to ask himself when he is working, and North America calls to find him, and he needs to determine the purpose before handing it over to him.

Whether it's life problems or various things in contact at work, Wayne is almost inseparable from Nina. This is also the most successful part of Miss Assistant's work. If she succeeds in letting the boss leave her, she will lose half of her ability to live. , and the greatest work boost.

This also tied herself up. In a few years, she had never been in a relationship at all, and almost all the men who approached her were men with ulterior motives.

"Ok." Wayne clipped the pen into the notebook, closed it, and threw it on the coffee table. "When I arrive in New York tomorrow, I will spare a day to go around with you."

He looked at the two women who pretended to be pitiful, and raised his hands in a gesture of surrender. "In addition to tomorrow's consumption, I will pay for it, so Nina, if I were you, I would hurry up with Nami now, open a fashion magazine and study, which store on Fifth Avenue should I go to tomorrow."
