Chapter 776 - Chapter 767: Trouble

"Haa ...

A few seconds after the explosion ended, Yumi and Inukai held on to their shields and shouted as if they were using all their strength.

It has to be said that green screen performance is indeed a very important performance. This performance method that relies entirely on imagination is still very challenging for the actor's acting skills.

Yumi already had a lot of experience in green screen performances when she was filming "Madoka Magica", so she was able to perform with ease.

The situation with Inukai is slightly worse.

The previous few shoots were okay, after all, the worst that could happen was that I could just NG and do it again.

But this time the scene is more complicated, and it will take a long time for the set design team to arrange the scene.

Even though Nanaya said it was okay, Inukai didn't want the crew to reshoot because of him.

As a newcomer, I have added extra workload to everyone. Even if those people behind the scenes don't say anything, they will definitely be dissatisfied with me in their hearts.

Therefore, Inukai asked Yumi to buy insurance for him.

When he was about to burst out laughing, Yumi stepped hard on Inukai's foot out of the camera's sight.

"Ah ...!"

The pain in his feet was fed back to his brain, and Inukai immediately let out a scream like a pig being slaughtered.

Although there is a certain difference between screaming in pain and shouting with all one's might, it doesn't matter much.

Once the special effects are added in post-production, in the atmosphere of black flames, the audience will naturally think that Inukai's shouting is just to show his strength.

Because when the audience watches the movie, they will actively put their own emotions into the scene.

In such a situation, as long as the actors show the corresponding expressions, the audience will naturally follow the story.

But in fact, this is completely a magic trick of the movie, and it is also a storytelling technique unique to the movie - montage.

This is also the reason why Nanaya used some "little tricks" to assist when the actors' performances were not up to par.

For example, sticking a "small massage device" on the soles of Ryougi Shiki's feet and making her make a shy expression.

Nanaya did the same thing to Lily, to help her act out Saber's expression after being captured by Medusa.

Of course, the most famous one is the kick that Nanaya gave Ori on the butt during the filming of "Kara no Kyoukai".

Because afterwards, Nanaya was chased for three blocks by Ori, who still had footprints on his butt.

Until now, when the old friends have dinner together, this incident is often brought up to tease Nanaya.

Yumi and Inukai didn't stop until the staff outside the venue gave the end signal.

But the shooting didn't end directly.

Then the sound of air cannon explosion was heard again on the field.

This is the shot where Mashu uses his Noble Phantasm to deflect the light cannon.

Finally, there was no more sound.

Dust began to fall from the sky, fluttering like a fine gray and brown snow.

Along with the falling "snowflakes", Nanaya's voice calling for a stop was heard.

This shot passed without incident.

"Thanks for your hard work."

Inukai shook his still aching foot and thanked Yumi.

Then, with the help of his assistant, he walked to a chair outside the set to rest.

The crew's cleaning team immediately entered the set and cleaned up the dust and garbage on the floor.

This scene would be gorgeous even without the black flame effects, but it created too much dust and garbage.

Ori stood in the middle of the set and directed the cleaning team to clean up the area as quickly as possible to avoid delaying the afternoon shooting schedule.

Nanaya was checking the recordings of the previous shooting.

Although Nanaya has passed this shot, there may be omissions in his observations just now.

Therefore, Nanaya would watch his own shooting materials repeatedly and try to find out the omissions as much as possible.

If they are just minor issues, Nanaya will note them down and try to cover them up during editing.

But if it is a more serious problem, it may be necessary to reshoot some shots or even reshoot a scene.

Yumi curiously leaned over to watch how Nanaya processed the video footage.

To be more precise, she was watching Seven Nights of Hard Work.

Not only them, all the women around Nanaya think that Nanaya is the most attractive at this time.

The shots were taken by several cameras at different angles, and the dust flying in the air alone was enough to create an extremely shocking visual impact.

Especially the two IMAX cameras, the images they recorded are even more amazing.

Yumi couldn't help but admire the powerful special effects in the movie.

Even though the shooting time in the morning is less than an hour, it is still necessary to ensure the best possible pictures.

The crew spent several weeks to ensure that every air cannon shot could achieve the best effect.

In order to make the dusty effect in the picture perfectly overlap with the light cannon effect that will be added later.

The prop team fires a different amount of high-pressure gas from each air cannon.

These are the optimal solutions obtained by the members of the props team through repeated tests.

The actual filming results produced by the crew were also very good.

You know, Yumi and Inukai were very close to the place where the air cannon exploded, but they were not blown away by the dust.

Moreover, the two people in the picture are very clear, and the dust does not block the camera from shooting.

This can be said to be extremely rare.

"You did a great job."

After watching the filming, Nanaya pulled Yumi aside and praised her.

"You were very calm during the filming, which is much better than before." Nanaya said calmly.

"That's because you haven't let me shoot an explosion scene in a long time." Yumi pouted and said, "I will always grow up."

Nanaya thought about it and it was indeed true.

When filming "Madoka Magica" before, Homura Akemi was indeed involved in quite a few explosion scenes.

But basically, either the explosion is made with pure CG special effects, or the people and the explosion are shot separately.

It seems that, apart from today, the most recent explosion scene that Nanaya filmed with Yumi should be traced back to the time of "Magic".

Seeing the embarrassment on Nanaya's face, Yumi smiled sweetly: "So, big brother, do you think I will still be scared?"

Nanaya nodded seriously, "I thought you would scream out of fear, or throw away the shield..."

"Big brother~ Even when I was a kid, I wouldn't do this!"

Nanaya touched Yumi's head with her hand and praised her at the right time: "Well, our Yumi-chan has grown up."

"Hehe~~Thank you, big brother, for the compliment~~"

Yumi giggled, she really enjoyed the feeling.

On the other side, Lily was looking over here, her fair face a little gloomy.

Lily felt very uncomfortable watching Nanaya and Yumi chatting and laughing.

I was talking about Cosplay with my sister last night, but today I ended up chatting with Yumi again.

So tomorrow, should I go to New York to flirt with Sister Shion?

Of course, this is not what Lily is most angry about.

Lily was angry because Nanaya refused to look for her even when he tried to tease Yumi.

It's obviously easy to get started, okay?

Brother-in-law, don't you like cosplay? I can wear blue, white, black, and swimsuits. Any clothes are fine!

This made Lily feel very discouraged, and she didn't know how to approach Nanaya.

Although I had elevated our relationship to a level above intimacy a long time ago.

But it is extremely difficult to go further.

By now, Lily had fully realized one thing.

In his attempt to hook up with Nanaya, his beloved sister became the biggest obstacle between the two.

[Sure enough, I must think of a solution next time I meet my sister. ]

Lily knew that as long as her sister didn't nod, Nanaya would just play dumb no matter how she hinted.

Even because of his overly aggressive attitude, the other party has started to avoid him.

When I pretended to be drunk yesterday, Nanaya treated me very gently.

This was the warmth Lily hadn't felt for a long time.

[I really want to be treated like this by my brother-in-law all the time. ]

Because of this, Lily felt very unhappy when she saw Yumi being treated differently.

Although when they were in Trier, Lily and Yumi had a good relationship because of their similar ages.

After all, before Kujo Fuu and others joined the team, Lily and Yumi were the only little kids in the team.

But that is now in the past.

After joining the crew of the prologue, Lily has always had a strong sense of confrontation with Yumi.

Originally, Yumi and herself were stars of several levels apart, and their status in the circle had never been equal.

But with the support of "Madoka Magica" and the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress, Yumi's recent status in the entertainment industry has begun to threaten Lily.

Of course, Lily doesn't care about any of this.

But Lily would never give up her position in Nanaya's heart.

But after the competitive mentality, what followed was envy of Yumi.

[If I were you...my brother-in-law would probably get close to me! ]

[If possible, I'll be the one chatting and laughing with my brother-in-law! ]

So, if...

Lily's mind became more and more confused. She didn't know how to make Nanaya fall in love with her, and she didn't know how to discuss this issue with her sister.

She was so worried that she became confused and dazed.

By the time Lily reacted, she found that she had gotten into trouble.

"Cut! Lily, what are you doing?!"

Nanaya's angry voice came from the loudspeaker.

Lily found herself standing in the center of the set, with Yumi holding a shield in front of her.

He was wearing black Saber armor and standing in front of the opponent with swords in both hands.

However, the black prop sword had been broken in the middle, and the tip of the upper part of the sword had disappeared.

Lily quickly searched with her eyes and found that the half of the prop sword that flew out was poking at a camera of the crew.

[It's a big disaster! ]

This was the thought in Lily's mind at this moment.

But when she saw Nanaya's angry eyes, Lily's nose felt sore and she burst into tears.

"Ugh, wow—brother-in-law ahhhh!!"
