Chapter 377： Crew station

Please remember the website of this site:; Please post it to your QQ group [Weibo/WeChat] forum to recommend the promotion introduction! In the previous life, in order to maximize the benefits, Peter Jackson and the producer once released three "The Lord of the Rings" Ryan has watched the production of the song several times because of his love for this series. Now I still remember some of the revelations of the New Zealand fat man.

Peter Jackson’s favorite candidate for Arwen was not the black-haired long-faced model and actress, but Uma Thurman. It is said that the latter’s audition effect was excellent. Not long before the filming started, Uma Thurman did. I was pregnant, and finally the fat director had to use the spare tire later.

And now, the crew has chosen Charlize Theron. The woman here looks cold and glamorous, but in fact she is sensitive and delicate. Her biggest problem is her temperament, but this is not particularly difficult for mature actors, of course. It's not easy.

As for the appearance, it is the easiest to solve. For the current makeup technology, it is very simple to turn blonde and blue eyes into black and gray eyes.

Surrounded by the Southern Alps, Queenstown is a beautiful small city near the sea. There are large snow-covered mountains and green hillside meadows nearby. Lake Wakatipu, which is very close to the city, is deep and blue. The mountain lake, set off the scene of the small town, is like a fairyland.

The crew of the crew enters the urban area of ​​Queenstown. Ryan looks through the car window. There are towering poplar trees along the way. The mountains on both sides of the trees can be clearly seen made of schist. After leaving the city, occasionally Some sceneries that come into view have a plausible familiar feeling.

Even sometimes, Ryan suspected that he had come to Middle-earth.

Now this beautiful town and its surrounding scenery are not well-known. If "The Lord of the Rings" can succeed, Queenstown will also enjoy huge benefits.

After turning the two hills, the car came to the area where the valley and the grassland combined. After Ryan jumped out of the car, what appeared in front of him was a miniature version of Hobbiton that looked like a fantasy version.

And not far from Hobbiton, several huge temporary studios are undergoing final finishing work, which will become the base camp of the "Lord of the Rings" crew. Even Peter Jackson’s Weta Studio has set up temporary offices here.

"Kind God, open your eyes and see, our boss has finally appeared."

When Ryan came to the busy Peter Jackson with an assistant, the New Zealand fat man would inevitably complain, even if he knew that his complaints would not have any effect on the film investors, "It’s been more than a month since shooting. King Eliza is finally willing to take responsibility and save Middle-earth."

"Well, Peter."

Seeing the staff around him a little embarrassed, Ryan simply joked. "From tomorrow, you are the master of Minastiris, and the position of King Gondor belongs to you."

Peter Jackson just complained, and then returned to his sorrow, "Ryan, do you need me to show you around? In the next year and a half, this place will become our base."

"Don't you need to be a cameraman?" Ryan knew that Peter Jackson had spent 18 months shooting for the trilogy.

"I think you came from Los Angeles and overlooked one thing. Today is the weekend. The crew is off."

After Peter Jackson gave a few words to the people around him, he took the lead and walked towards the'Habbiton'. When he got closer, he pointed to the green location. Said to Ryan, "Since the location was determined last year, I commissioned a landscape expert to preset the Hobbiton scene here, planting various trees, flowers, and vegetables..."

Although the movie is sure to use cg special effects far exceeding "Titanic". But the crew still strives to truly restore every scene, even if it is a reduced version.

"Oh, that bridge is quaint. Can you go up and try it?" Ryan asked, pointing to Shire's stone bridge.

"It's made of polystyrene. If you don't mind falling into the water, you can try it."

A crisp woman's voice came from the other side of the two. Ryan frowned first, then turned around and greeted with a smile, "Hi, Charlie, when did you come here?"

"Do you mean New Zealand or here?"

Charlize Theron only brought Ryan's embarrassment a little, and resolved it with the following words, "Director Jackson, can you give me the position of the tour guide? When I came just now, Mr. Alan Lee was looking for you. ."

Alan Lee is the concept designer of the crew.

"Well, it looks like I should be busy again." Peter Jackson specifically asked before leaving, "Ryan, as a director, I hope you can adapt to this as soon as possible. We have been waiting for you for too long, Monday. We’ll shoot Rivendell’s scenes when we’re in."

"No problem, I promise."

Peter Jackson left, and there was a silence between Ryan and Charlize Theron. In fact, since that call, the two have barely contacted each other.

"This is Shire's location."

The South African Diamond finally broke the silence and walked slowly along the periphery of the'Habbiton' towards the studio. "The filming here has not yet started. There is a grand banquet in the script. Now the number of actors is obvious. Not enough, Peter plans to let us and relatives of stunt actors come to visit the class, and when there are enough people, we will start shooting..."

Speaking of relatives, Charlize Theron's mood, which was originally not very high, instantly became even more depressed.

After becoming famous, Charlize Theron’s past has long been dug out by those unscrupulous tabloids. There was a lot of trouble in the past. Ryan’s previous life only knew that she had experienced unusual anxiety and full of blackness before she became an adult, but she did not. It occurred to her that her mother had paid such a high price to protect her.

Seeing what she looked like at this time, Ryan guessed that maybe she remembered those unpleasant past events again, and quickly changed the subject, "Charlie, I seemed to have heard you say last time. Peter sent you an audition invitation. Not very interested, why did you take over this role again?"

"This role is very good." Charlize Theron's dyed black eyebrows trembled slightly, as if the master was in the same mood now, "Actually, before I received the invitation, I had not read about the "Lord of the Rings". "Any literary works of "I don’t know anything about Arwen Evening Star."

"Later, I read the original work and Peter's script, only to realize that this is a smart and brave elf princess, willing to give up eternal life for love..."

Hearing that Charlize Theron seemed to be analyzing the role of Arwen, and it seemed to be insignificant, Ryan turned his head calmly and looked at the side of the studio, through the gap open at the door. It can be seen in the middle, which is covered with blue curtains.

This series will use a lot of cg composite shots. Except for some locations, the actors will perform on the blue screen most of the time.

"Last call, I'm sorry, Ryan."

Walking to a secluded meadow, Charlize Theron suddenly stopped and faced Ryan, "I was in a bad mood last time, I drank too much..."

"Phone? Last time?" Ryan pretended to be confused and shook his head. "I forgot about it."

Charlize Theron didn't let him go, staring at him and continuing, "I know that something was too much last time. You are willing to help me because we are friends, not to get anything in return."

Every friend around the other party developed unusually smoothly. In the first few years after becoming famous, Charlize Theron had also seen the filth and darkness of Hollywood. She knew that Ryan didn’t even need to take care of it, just a little care. At once, let your friends get fair and just treatment, and get equal opportunities during auditions, which will reduce their path by a lot of obstacles.

She herself is the best example. After becoming a friend of Ryan, Charlize Theron can clearly feel that the deliberate difficulties encountered are almost gone. The career quickly climbed to the top, and even got the first in life. Nominated for the Golden Globe and Oscar for Best Actress.

"Okay, Charlie." Ryan waved his hand indifferently, "It's okay for friends to help each other."

Seeing that the South African Diamond wanted to speak again, he went on to say, "Maybe I still need your help someday."

Want me to help?

Charlize Theron's mouth pulled out a smile, which looked unusually beautiful, but who could appreciate the bitterness but her?

Twenty-four years old, a beautiful and precious age group, she was able to turn down the invitations of several movies and went to New Zealand to play a pure vase role that could no longer be pure, for what?

"It's getting late." Ryan yawned greatly, as if he was really tired. "I should go back because of jet lag."

"Is your trailer ready?"

Charlize Theron followed Ryan's side and said thoughtfully, "The mosquitoes here in New Zealand are particularly powerful. Regardless of the low temperature, they are still rampant. The mosquito killer must be on all the time."

"Well, I will pay attention." Ryan nodded.

The climatic conditions here in Queenstown are very good. Summer is not too hot. In winter, although there are occasional snowflakes, it is not too cold. It can be said that when Peter Jackson chose the location all aspects were considered. Happening.

"Then... let's stop here today."

Walking back to the crew’s residential area, Charlize Theron showed a trademark smile, "I won't interrupt you to rest, Ryan, see you during filming."

Seeing the thin and tall man disappear from the field of vision, Charlize Theron's brows raised higher and higher, and she had passively waited for too long.

Arwen and Aragorn, the fairy princess and the Eliza King, had a lot of affectionate scenes during filming. There are countless people in this circle who came together for shooting emotional scenes.

In the luxury trailer on the other side, Ryan was lying on the bed but couldn't sleep. The faces of Nicole and Natalie were turning around in his mind, and he couldn't be peaceful when disturbed.

In the end, he simply took out his notebook and typed on the script of "Pirates of the Caribbean". After seeing the Miss Keira Knightley from London, this series was put on the schedule by him, but there is no need to worry about filming, after all, Elizabeth? Miss Swann still has some time to grow up.
