v2 Chapter 859： The purpose of filming is for entertainment

"Duke Rosenberg has a special liking for ima. It is an indisputable fact. There is a successful precedent for the Dark Knight before. His summer file for The Rise of the Dark Knight this year is even more bold and challenging. The whole film has more than 1 hour. The lens was completely shot with an ima camera, and this is by far the longest ima shooting time record in a Hollywood movie!"

The release time is getting closer, and Warner Bros. various kinds of publicity are also increasing. Ima is undoubtedly one of the publicity points of the film.

At the beginning of April, Warner Bros. held a 6-minute ima editing for movie fans and media reporters, and the screening was enthusiastic.

"When the lights are dimmed and the playback starts, you can feel the touch of energy rising in the theater!"

"It feels great!"

Such remarks are also circulating on the Internet.

Corresponding to this, there is Duke's comment on ima.

"When we learned that we had formed a team to use the ima machine to shoot movies in Hollywood, many people told us that it was too difficult. This is an ironic thing. Since these cameras can go up to the Himalayas and down to the deep sea. It has even been used in outer space. Why can’t we use it to make movies?"

A few days later, the crew of The Dark Knight Rises held a global press conference at the Hilton Hotel in Beverly Hills, Hollywood.

Duke, the director, starred in Christian Bell, Gary Oldman, Gail Gadot, James Franco, Michael Kane, Lawrence Fishburne, the soundtrack Hans Zimmer, producer Charles Rowan and other creators attended the press conference to answer questions from the global media.

This is undoubtedly a heavyweight publicity campaign before the release of The Dark Knight. In addition to attracting nearly 7 from all over the audience, nb also broadcast live to North America and overseas through TV signals.

"There is no doubt that Duke Rosenberg's Batman: Hour of War and the Dark Knight not only takes the Batman movie, but also the entire hero movie to a whole new level. This is also the end of The Dark Knight Rise. The reason why it is highly anticipated by movie fans around the world."

Before the press conference began, the reporter from nb was doing aside the somewhat complicated live broadcast, "For the ending of the film set for Batman, Duke previously said that he had first thought about the ending of the story. Then he went backwards and thought about other things. In the plot, he said that Batman is a comic that has been serialized for more than 70 years. The characteristics of the serialization require that the story can be extended endlessly, but he hopes that this trilogy can become a self-contained story. So the third part is The whole story must be finished perfectly."

The news conference soon kicked off. When asked if he would direct a "Batman" movie in the future, Duke made it clear that it was time to say goodbye to "Batman", "I spent almost Ten years, this is a very important period in my life. This is a wonderful journey, and now it’s time for the end of this journey. It’s a bit sad for me to leave this series, and of course I might still be with these crews The members have collaborated in other films, but for the Batman series, it is indeed time to say goodbye."

On the scene of the conference, compared with Duke's calm and self-confident talk, Christian Bale seemed to have not completely stepped out of the role of Batman, and his eyes were deep and often lost in thought.

When asked by the media, "Which villain in the Batman series most want to play", Bell gave some surprising answers, saying that Batman is a villain. "The reason I like Batman is because he is almost a bad guy. He walks on the edge of good and evil. He has evil thoughts in his heart, but he can always restrain these thoughts and make sure that he is still on the right side. Bat. On the surface, Xia is acting chivalrously and righteously. In fact, the real motive in his heart is not so simple, but fortunately he can restrain himself with altruism and make sure that he is still a good person Take a look"

Like Duke, the rise of the dark knight is destined to be when Christian Bale says goodbye to the character of Batman. Talking about his feelings at the farewell moment, Bell seemed to have mixed feelings, "As Duke said, this trilogy is also an important part of my life. However, Duke’s decision on the film has always been correct, and he said it was saying goodbye. It’s not going to be wrong."

After routinely interviewing other actors, almost all reporters focused on Duke, and the question hit him like a wave. Most of the time, Duke basically has questions.

A reporter from the Los Angeles Times took the lead to stand up and ask, “Is it difficult for you to deal with the ending of the last Dark Knight and the plot of this one? The ending of the previous What impact does the role of this film have?"

"As the third film in the series, our challenge is to shoot a story with value to be told, so that the audience feels it is necessary to go back to this series and to Gotham City."

Adjusting a comfortable sitting position, Duke is ready to fight with reporters for a long time, saying, "From the beginning, I didn’t want to treat this film as a simple episode in the Batman series, but to form a complete one. So the ending of the previous movie must have an impact on the plot of this movie. The story of the previous movie still has a deep meaning in this movie. The story of the previous movie must continue to extend in this movie. It is the starting point of our thinking."

After being named, the reporter from Entertainment Weekly took the microphone and asked, "Why do you insist on using ima technology for production?"

"I didn't deliberately insist on anything, it was just a choice. When I used ima to shoot and project the film on a huge screen, I can say that I have never seen any other film format that can match the image quality of ima. For me, the characters and stories of the Batman series are more realistic, and the huge image of ima can reflect this characteristic of the film."

Duke knows the essentials of propaganda, and then said with a smile, "The ima camera we use is only four in the world. When shooting the rise of the Dark Knight, we broke one, so there are only three in the world."

There was a burst of laughter at the conference.

These words are all facts. When shooting a car crash, an ima camera was unfortunately destroyed. This is already the second ima camera destroyed by Duke.

After the laughter stopped, Duke said again, “ima can attract the audience to leave the TV at home and watch the movie in the cinema, because the huge visual effect of ima cannot be created in the living room. Now it attracts the audience to leave the residence and go to the cinema to watch the movie. It's getting harder and harder, but ima gave the audience a reason to do this."

A reporter from the Boston Globe asked, "It is said that this film is currently the longest film shot with ima. May I ask the director, how did you decide which shots were shot with the ima camera and which shots were shot with the ordinary camera?

After thinking about it for a moment, Duke gave a very interesting answer, "Because the ima camera is noisy, the dialogue scenes are usually shot with ordinary digital cameras, but the shooting of fighting and war scenes is usually using the ima camera. Taken."

There was laughter again at the scene.

Because the 6-minute ima editing has been held before, and the plot of the film has been revealed to the outside world, the following Times reporter asked questions about the plot, "This film seems to have some political implications. In the trial screening, the plot of Bain leading the mob to destroy will definitely become a very controversial scene. Do you want to make a very political film from the beginning?"

"I think my film has never been very political. When the Dark Knight was released, many people looked at it from a political perspective."

Compared with what Duke said just now, it is closer to the category of the truth. "In fact, the purpose of shooting the film is to entertain and tell a good story. I like to build a plot in a fictional environment like Gotham City. , So that the film can have a wider resonance among the audience, because each audience can bring their own living environment into the film. In the process, some audiences may follow their own ideas and come from a political perspective Understand the film, this is also inevitable."

The New York Times reporter turned his attention to several newcomers, "The last film in the series has achieved unprecedented success. Will this put pressure on you to shoot this film? Especially for the newcomers. For an actor, is there extra pressure?

"It is true that the success of the previous film brought us a lot of pressure. But when we sat down and started conceiving this film, all we thought was to make this film well, and we could not deliberately copy the previous one. Ministry’s success."

Duke took the question first, "The success of the last one is incredible, and sometimes I can’t explain it myself, that’s great. But the real pressure is from the film companies, who spent so much money on making films and advertising, my films Must make money for them, this is where the pressure lies."

The microphone turned to Gal Gadot, and she said, "At first I was a little nervous because the other actors are more or less cooperating with Duke, but I am a newcomer. But everyone is very enthusiastic on set. Tell me about the situation. Duke and the lead actors treat me no differently from other old members, and the anxiety at the beginning has gradually improved.

James Franco’s face was filled with a sunny smile, “When the Dark Knight was launched, I watched it twice and loved it very much, but at the time I never thought I would be a member of the series. After that, I Cooperating with Duke in Inception, it was an adventure full of surprises and excitement, and then further, I got the opportunity to star in this film. For me, this is really a dream come true."

At the end of the press conference, the first trailer for the rise of the Dark Knight was announced. (To be continued.)
