Rowan quickly walked towards the place where the crowd was gathering. One large camera after another was being debugged
constantly, and vehicles coming and going were constantly loaded with props for building the stage and scenes.
From nothing to a real and detailed scene, it appeared before Rowan's eyes in just two or three hours.
As Rowan walked towards John Woo, he looked at the grand scene of film shooting in this industrial age and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Although it was his first time seeing this he couldn't help but he impressed.
Just as Terence Chang said before, "Hollywood has treated movies as
standardized commodities, manufacturing them like an assembly line. The use of industrial base and the addition of various high-tech technologies have enabled Hollywood to maintain a strong leading position."
Rowan was still thinkiing when he heard John Woo's surprised voice: "Hey, the movements and forms are very well grasped, and also quite attractive. The next scene is relatively long, but you don't have any lines. Watch how Nicolas Cage performs and learn from him."
Without any objection at all, Rowan nodded and quickly found this shot. It was the scene where Troy, played by Nicolas Cage, was fighting with the guys in prison.
In the cold and dark prison, all the actors turned their heads to look at Nicolas Cage. Even though he was only wearing an old prison uniform, his complex aura quickly spread at this moment.
The some what unbelievable look disappeared, the corner of his eye twitched slightly, a heavy punch came and hit the corner of his mouth hard Nicolas Cage fell to the side in a daze, half-knelt on the grouind, holding on to the steel table.
Rowan looked over indifferently, and felt himself involuntarily attracted by the complex emotions on Nicolas Cage's face, and was slightly stunned.
"Cut!"
A crisp voice suddenly came, and Rowan suddenly came back to his senses. He clenched his fists heavily, and did not choose to escape. He raised his head and looked directly at John Woo. The latter raised his hand, turned his head and said to the lighting engineer: "The light should be a little dimmer, and remember to graidually brighten it as the lens changes. Remember to slowly amplify the frequency changes to highlight the chaotic nature."
Taking a deep breath, Rowan quickly adjusted the memory fragments
in his mind he has already seen the real Troy and was just surprised how Nicolas head the exact emotion but he won't be surprised anymore. He knew very well that John Woo was just considering his own face and not letting himself get too nervous.
But he knew very well that the most important reason just now was that he was suppressed by Nicolas Cage's aura, he felt that he was back in the dream dungeon, and he made the simplest and lowest-level mistake.
As the strongest thug under Troy, played by Nicolas Cage, he should show doubt and indifference towards Troy's changes, but aIso have a glimmer of hope and expectation, hoping that the omnipotent Troy will come back and take him out of this terrible prison.
At the same time, remembering the dream dungeon , two or three somewhat stiff and hesitant movements appeared in Rowan's mind, marking the mistakes he had just made.
Seeing this, Rowan took a deep breath and quickly returned to his indifference and gloom. On the other side, the prop master and makeup artist also re-applied makeup for Nicolas Cage and other actors and rearranged the scene.
"Scene 132, second take,start!"
Following John Woo's order, another actor started fighting with Nicolas Cage. Nicolas Cage quickly got into the state, half-kneeling on the ground more vividly and brilliantly than before, looking directly at Rowan with
a complicated look.
A powerful aura rushed towards him. Rowan narrowed his eyes slightly, without revealing any extra expression on his face. That kind of cold indifference madle him turn slightly sideways, and his gaze fell on the back of Nicolas Cage. Suddenly, his heart
moved and he raised his chin slightly.
Nicolas Cage's eyes lit up as he half-knelt on the ground. Although Rowan's expressions and movements were on point and it didn't look like he was lacking in acting experience. His face did not appear stiff, and his subtle and rich movements basicallly showed the
doubts and confusion of the strongest fighter.
Nicolas Cage showed a trace of confusion on his face, then he slowly stood up, without looking at Rowan. He seemed to be afraid that his identity would be exposed. He suddenly stood up and aimed at the guy rushing from behind and threw a heavy punch.
The actor groaned and turned his head away. His fat and bloated body swayed slightly. A violent and fierce light suddenly appeared on Nicolas Cage's face, and he let out a violent roar:"I am Keith Troy!"
Then he picked up the steel dinner basin and hit the actor directly on the cheek. Chen Hu could see that Nicolas Cage did not use much force, but the actor screamed skillfully and staggered backwards.
Nicolas Cage suddenly spread his arms, a complex expression echoed on his face, and he made a strange and repetitive roar: "I am Troy, I am Troy!"
The actors around suddenly became quiet, and as Nicolas Cage made exaggerated movements and punched the actor hard on the back, cheers and screams suddenly rose up like a volcano of fire that had been
ignited.
It seemed that this angered Nicolas Cage, or perhaps helped to ignite Troy's nature, and he suddenly raised his right foot wrapped in a steel boot and stepped heavily on the actor's thigh, so that he could only lie sideways on the dining table.
Another tall figure suddenly rushed out, swinging his heavy fist and hitting Nicolas Cage firmly on the cheek. However, the tall drug lord did not fall down. Instead, his eyes suddenly turned red and he let ouit a roar filled with unwillingness and anger!
Watching this actor showing off his acting skills so wildly, exuding invisible charm in his every move, Rowan had to admit that the gap between him and himself was huge.
His own expression and voice acting skills are still hovering around 60 or 70 points and that too only for this charector thanks to his chest, while he guessed that Nicolas Cage's average is at least above 80 points for every one of his roles, and his temperament gives people a dazzling attraction.
This made Rowan feel emotional, but he also did not gave up the idea of pursuing
pure acting, simply because he knew with Dungeon dream even earning and Oscar is possible.
A strange howl came into his ears, and Rowan counted the time silently in his heart. When the camera lit up slightly, the expression on his face revealed a complex change. His eyes flashed with a Little disbelief, and at the same time, resignation, and indescribable joy.
Not only facial expressions were Required, Rowan's tall body slowly pushed aside the on lookers and couldn't help but move closer to Nicolas Cage, his fists slightly clenched, and waves of anger began to appear on his face.
John Woo, who thought he needed to call a timeout, suddenly had his eyes light up. Although Rowan's performance just now was bit immature, it could at least get 78 points. Moreover, his personal temperament and tall stature were quite suitable for this role, for this commercial blockbuster which uses action and plot as the main means of advancement.
Rowan's performance is undoubtedly qualified!
"Cut! Very good, a very beautiful long shot! Cage, you were great! Everyone take a 15-minute break, and then shoot it again."
After the entire shot was completed, John Woo looked at all the shots carefully, and finallly nodded with satisfaction and shouted loudly.
Rowan, who was a little nervous, breathed a sigh of relief. The young assistant handed him the mineral water. Rowan's heart moved, and he walked to Nicolas Cage, who was still adjusting his thoughts. After handing him the mineral water, he exclaimed in an excited tone: "You were great! I think I will have to practice for 100 years before I can touch your heels."
Nicolas Cage, who had already adjusted himself, showed a hearty smile, patted Rowan on the shoulder, and nodded gently: "You did well. Compared to a newcomer, you did quite well. But your steps were a little stiff just now. And as a super criminal who wants to get out all the time, you should always observe.the movements of the prison guards around you."
Rowan nodded quickly, then kept Nicolas Cage's instructions in mind one by one, though he knew what Cage was talking about and having Sean and Al Simmons fragments he did watch the guards subtly but Cage may have missed it though the camera wouldn't have. After that he gave a few subtle compliments and continued chatting with the superstar.
Mary, who was trying her best to stand behind John Woo, looked at Rowan who was chatting happily with Nicolas Cage, and couldn't help but nodded secretly. Although Rowan was very talented, but he was also very good at seizing opportunities. Chatting with Nicolas Cage could not only help him integrate into the crew better, but also improve his status silently.
