I'm not just an action star

The second drag racing scene is that the villain Carter Veron wants to try these drivers who have applied for the job, and let these drivers go to pick up something, and whoever gets it first will be hired.

So, these drivers rushed to fetch things, and staged a racing competition on the road.

The original version still had the old problem of not being able to capture that sense of speed.

Wu Long used the experience of the highway car chase scene when filming "Terminator" to recruit a large number of experienced racers.

These racers are in charge of various Mineta, Nichan, and Sanling cars, and they advance at a speed of 25 kilometers per hour on the filming road.Every driver must control the distance from the car in front as required.

Wu Long, Ross and the drivers of their car stunt team will have a racing competition previewed according to the plot in these traffic flows.

In this competition, the speed of their racing cars is about 50 to 60 kilometers per hour.Like Wu Long and Ross, they can go faster depending on the situation.

Before the filming, Wu Long and his fellow racing drivers conducted simulation exercises.

According to the plot, replace the moving vehicle with a fixed object, and then practice racing and interspersed in the traffic flow.

After practicing, start shooting.

On the day of shooting, dozens of cameras were rented and installed in different locations and from different angles to shoot.Some cameras are installed in cars in the traffic flow, and there are drone cameras in the sky to track and take down shots.

In the movie, apart from Wu Long and his companion Roman, the other six people can be regarded as another group.Between Wu Long and Luo Man, Luo Man has a competitive heart and wants to compete with Wu Long for the first place.The other group also competed with each other in order to compete for opportunities.

During the filming, Wu Long and Ross were in one group, and the other group of six were the drivers of Ross's car stunt team.

In the original plot, Wu Long and Roman took the lead from the beginning.This makes the scene less speedy and exciting.

The so-called speed is to overtake.Otherwise, how to reflect the speed?

If an overtaking car overtakes an ordinary car on the road, how can it reflect the ability of the protagonist?

The so-called stimulation is to conflict.The protagonist takes the lead from the beginning, so what conflict is there?

change!

After handing in their driver's licenses, the villain yelled for them to leave quickly, and one of the six members ran first.

However, Roman is also very fast, and he is about to surpass that person.The man bumped into Roman suddenly, knocking Roman into the air.

Wu Long is at No.3, the person behind him reached out to pull his clothes to pull him down, but he dodged.

Wu Long did not retaliate immediately, but went to check on his brother Roman's situation.

Roman said it was all right, and pulled Wu Long's hand up.When the two drove, the six cars had already run ahead of them.

After getting on the highway, Wu Long was in front and Roman was behind.When Wu Long wanted to overtake No.6, No.6 didn't want to be overtaken by Wu Long, so he turned the steering wheel to avoid hitting Wu Long's car.

Because Wu Long had been plotted against by these people before, he was already on guard.Immediately braking to pass, the other party did not expect Wu Long to react so quickly, drove off the side of the road and overturned his car and flew out.

Luo Man laughed and overtook Wu Long, who followed closely behind.

The two passed other vehicles one after another, and there were two competing cars ahead.They occupy the left and right, preventing Luo Man and Wu Long from overtaking.

In front of the two competing cars, there are two big trucks.

Roman immediately accelerated to pass between the two large trucks, and Wu Long followed closely behind.

Seeing that before being robbed by Luo Man and Wu Long, the red competition car also wanted to drive past the big truck, but was hit and crushed.It also resulted in a black Competition car crashing into the crushed red Competition car.

The rest of the story is the same as before.

When shooting, first take a long chase shot.

Racing according to the plot, interspersed among various vehicles at a speed of 25 kilometers per hour.When Wu Long wanted to overtake the sixth car, the sixth car was reminded not to hit Wu Long's car.

After Wu Long braked, the sixth car drove to the side without overturning.

Overtaking all the way, when they arrived at two large trucks, Ross, the substitute, drove past first, followed by Wu Long.

The steering wheels of the two large trucks were locked and unable to turn.This avoids the possibility of a car accident involving Ross and Wu Long.

He was supposed to get into the red competition car later, but he just made a point of getting into it and got out of the way.The remaining three competing cars passed by one by one and continued to chase Wu Long and Ross.

Next, Wu Long overtook Ross and drove in reverse.He also stretched out his hand out of the window and raised his middle finger.

Because it is a long shot, the whole process did not stop.The surrounding aircraft positions did not stop, and the drones in the sky did not stop to track and shoot from above.

When he was about to reach the exit, Wu Long got a prompt and turned the car around to open the entrance and exit curve.

Ross also followed the exit and exit curves.

The three cars behind turn side by side on the entrance and exit curve.When one of the cars was about to hit the separation island, it turned the steering wheel and drove across the separation island on the other side.

This long shot is finished.

After shooting this long shot, Wu Long thanked all the participants and drivers, and everyone applauded warmly.

After Wu Long watched the replay, he was sure that the scene passed and there was no need to shoot it again.Everyone is celebrating again, happy to be able to participate in Wu Long's shooting.

In addition to getting paid, they can also get the co-signatures of Wu Long and Ross.The signature is on an overhead photo taken at this time.

Whoever drives what kind of car will intercept the photo and sign it as a gift to the other party.

In doing so, he won the favor of many people.They have posted on the Internet one after another, which is equivalent to helping "Fast and Furious 2" to promote.It is also promoting Wu Long.

In addition to shooting long shots, it is shooting car accident shots.

The car that wanted to avoid hitting Wu Long's car overturned and flew out, so it was easier to shoot.This kind of shot is very common, and for Ross and his famous car stunt team, it is very easy to complete.

The hardest part is the shot of the red Competitor getting run over by a big truck.

It is not easy to use real big trucks to directly crush.Because the wheels of this kind of big truck are not big enough to ride on a sports car.Most of the time, the sports car will get stuck there.

In order to capture such a picture, there are usually three methods.

One is a scaled-down model.This kind of flaw is easy to be seen.

The second is a scale model car or a shell car, and the scale model of the rear half of the large truck is shot.

The third type is all real car shooting.Or a combination of two and three.

Watching the "Fast and Furious" series, the latter is to see how to destroy the car.All kinds of cars, real ruins.This is a gimmick, just like the "Death Comes" series looks at various ways to die.

Of course, many cars are just the shell of a luxury car.

Wu Long used real cars to shoot them.Of course, it is impossible to have only one sports car for this scene.

One is to put on a luxury car shell and shoot collision shots.

One is a scrapped car, the shell was rebuilt, and the shot was shot.The wheels of the big truck in this shot are hard to lift to crush the sports car.There is a platform on one side of the vehicle to be crushed, and the wheels of the large truck are on the platform, so that the height is not so high, and the wheels can be rolled over.

Later, it was edited together to form a shocking scene of a big truck crushing a luxury car.

The last shot of hitting the separation island was also relatively easy to shoot.There are car crash scenes in many movies. For Ross and his car stunt team, it is very easy to complete.

After these shots are shot, they will be cut into long shots later.

The original long shot will cut out the middle two sections, and then edit the car accident scene into it to form a pseudo long shot.

During the show, the screen will be divided into two screens.

One screen always plays this false long shot shot from above in the air.

The other picture is the shots taken at different angles from dozens of other camera positions, corresponding to the time points of the pseudo-long shots one by one.

For example, in the pseudo-long shot, the car wanted to avoid hitting Wu Long, but Wu Long braked to pass.The car couldn't control it, swayed off the road, hit the side of the road, rolled and flew out.

Another scene is the No.1 perspective in Wu Long's car. After braking, the car rushes in front of Wu Long's car, and Wu Long bypasses it.The car swayed from side to side in front of Wu Long's car, and then rushed out of the road, tumbling and flying out.

When the car rushes out of the No.1 angle of view in Wulong's car, it will switch to the outside angle of view and show the scene of the car flying.And Wu Long's car passed by and continued to overtake other vehicles in front.

This kind of overhead shooting has been used all the time. It is Wu Long who thought that in the news of Merikan, there are often helicopters shooting scenes of police cars chasing criminal vehicles on the highway.

Therefore, Wu Long adopted such a picture.For the audience of Merican Country, it has a strong sense of substitution.

Especially later in the film, when the police chased Wu Long and Roman, they also dispatched two helicopters.In such a scene, it is more realistic to use an overhead shot.

It can make the audience think that they are watching real news, and then think that the pictures in the movie are real and are pictures that happened in reality.

This road racing scene is over.

It is the fourth car racing scene in the film, where he is chased by the police.

The shooting of this racing scene was not difficult according to the original version, but it was difficult according to Wu Long's requirements.

The lack of any car crashes in the original made the audience less interested.As said in "Reaper 4", to watch racing is to watch crashes.

In reality, many people think this way, but not many people say it.

I can't see the violent crash in reality, but I want to see it in the movie to satisfy the dark thoughts in my heart.

The original version has no sense of speed and no crash scene, who would like to watch it?

Wu Long needed a big car crash scene, and multiple police cars collided together.Those movie fans will feel refreshed when they see such a scene.

Filming this car chase was pretty much the same as the last road racing scene.

First take a long shot with no crashes and no accidents.Then edit as needed.

The long shot is a drone tracking overhead shot, which is a common practice.Some helicopter shots will also be edited in order to increase the sense of news-like realism.

After taking the long shot, I will shoot the car accident.

Because it is racing in the traffic flow, the speed of the car cannot be raised.That's why he was chased by the police car.

In the movie, Wu Long and Roman want to use the cars on the road to block the police cars.Police cars are not like criminals, they have to take into account the safety of the public.In order to avoid hitting innocent vehicles, the police car will have an accident.

Rush off the road and overturn the car.

Rolling and rolling on the road.

When the helicopter shot the emp electronic pulse jammer at Wu Long and Luo Man's car, Wu Long shouted that these things should not be shot.Then distanced itself from Roman's car, and swung in a large serpentine shape.

He didn't hesitate to drive the two cars to separate, and each drove to the side of the road on both sides.

Suddenly drove back to the highway lane.

When the opponent missed the aim, he suddenly accelerated again.

The emp electronic pulse jammer missed Wu Long and Luo Man, but hit the police car chasing behind.

Two police cars were hit and lost power, causing more than a dozen police cars behind to collide and even pile up.

A police car continued to pursue.

Wu Long and Luo Man turned out of the exit curve, and a police car couldn't dodge it and hit the separation island.

After filming this car chase scene, after the break, we filmed the last scene where the car flies out and rushes into the yacht.

The original was filmed on Key Biscayne, Florida.It's really filming a car flying into the sea, but it's not flying a yacht, and I don't have that technology.

Before the car enters the sea, special treatment must be carried out on the car.The engine, brakes and fuel lines were removed, and the bodywork was thoroughly cleaned so as not to contaminate the seawater.

The shooting of the original version was actually very simple, just eject the abandoned car with the dummy into the sea, and it was over.The rest of the aerial shots and the shots of hitting the yacht were shot on land.

The close-up shots with real people were shot on green screen and then composited later.

The original shot of the car crashing into the yacht was a cable-pull cable in the air to lift the car up.

Use a frame to build a part of a fake yacht, and the empty shell car slides down the cable stay and hits the fake yacht.Simultaneously detonated, resulting in flying impact fragments.

"I Have a Scroll of Ghosts and Gods"

In the later stage, some special effects were added to synthesize together, and this thrilling scene was completed.

This is the original shoot.

In the end, this kind of shooting looks like too much editing makes the impact not strong enough, and the visual effect is not amazing enough.It also lacks the sense of speed, thrill and excitement.

A good routine, but failed to produce a shocking effect.

failure!

The box office proves it all.

In order to save the box office, Wu Long had to change.

The method he changed was still the fake long-shot trick.

First, build a triple-wide trestle floating on the sea at the place where the car flies out.The trestle is paved with buffers and covered with green screen.

Take a shot of the car catapulting out.The side camera position, the facing camera position, and the drone tracking the overhead camera position, shoot together.

When you're done shooting, take note of where you landed.

Remove the trestle.

Real yachts are driven on the sea, and real cars are driven by the sea.Both sides travel at pre-calculated speeds, guaranteed to land on the yacht if the car does fly off.

Aerial tracking and overhead shooting.In the end, the car did not fly out, but the yacht sailed to the predetermined position.

On the set, take a shot of a car crashing into a fake yacht.

This collision is not the kind of hoisting and collision in the original version, but a real collision when flying out.

It's just because it only needs to hit the lens, so it won't fly very high and then fall down.In fact, the drop is only half a meter.

The fake yacht that hit is also very real.

This shot is also an overhead shot, and the shot seems to hit the yacht with the car.The explosion exploded many fragments, making the visual effect look even more explosive.

In the end, the wrecked car was placed on the yacht, and the actors were in place to shoot at sea.

So the post-production special effects of the lens are synthesized.

It forms a pseudo-long shot of aerial tracking and overhead shooting.

Clips without frame shots.Use two screens to display simultaneously.

One is a pseudo long lens.

One is the performance shot of the actors in the car or the side, front and other shots.

When the audience is watching, because the pseudo-long shot has always existed without interruption, it can hold the audience's heart tightly and hang it.

From the aerial shot, you can see the sense of speed, and you can also see that the car is constantly chasing the yacht.The comparison of the distance between the two sides can increase the excitement.

The pseudo-long shot has been followed, and the audience can see that the car continues to accelerate, and finally rushes up the slope and flies out to the sea.

real!

thrilling!

Just because there is no interruption, the hearts of the audience can be hung and lifted all the time, and finally watching the car rush out with their own eyes, the hearts of the audience are also lifted into the air.

Stimulate!

Another frame has a side shot and a head-on shot of the car as it flies into the air.Facing the camera head-on, it is as if standing at the front of a yacht and seeing a car flying behind.

Immediately afterwards, the picture of the fake long shot is enlarged, and only the picture of the fake long shot is on the screen.

In this shot, along with the car smashing into the yacht, the shocking scene of "Peng" was scattered everywhere.

Moreover, when the car falls, you can also see the villain in front of the yacht retreating in horror.

Cool!
