Chapter 136 True character (please subscribe)

The tall, special-shaped actor's prop ax fell down, Martin rolled to dodge, and the German shepherd rushed over from one side, entangling the extraordinarily strong perverted deformed man.

With quick eyesight and quick hands, Martin stabbed out the prop knife with his backhand and plunged it into the blood bag tied to the stuntman's leg.

 When pulling it out, red liquid squirted out.

 Martin rolled again, dodging the falling prop ax again.

 Ajia shouted stop, and the shot passed smoothly.

 After a short break, the location was set up, the shooting continued, and soon came to the last scene.

  Martin, with the help of the German shepherd beauty, took the old-fashioned shotgun thrown by the deformed girl and blew off the giant deformed man's head.

 The mainstream of Hollywood must properly highlight the role of women.

Not only were deformed people, but the two German shepherds who died stupidly were also male dogs and beasts.

On the contrary, the beauty accompanied Martin until the end.

Martin, covered in blood mist, walked up to the dummy and fired a series of shots.

 The blood bag on the dummy exploded.

Director Ajia shouted: "Stop! Pass!" He picked up the loudspeaker and shouted at the top of his lungs: "I declare that the filming of "The Mountain Has Eyes" has been completed!"

 The set was filled with cheers.

 The end of work not only means that you can take a vacation, but also that your remuneration will be paid in installments soon.

 Buck, Lewis and others opened their hand-held salutes, and ribbons and strips flew all over the sky.

  It only took the crew 24 days to shoot all the scenes.

 Post-production returned to Los Angeles.

Champagne was also prepared on the set, and all the cast and crew toasted to drink together.

 Martin came out after taking off his makeup and changing clothes. Producer Craven was giving small gifts on behalf of the crew, most of which were worthless props.

 The really high-priced props on the ledger must be disposed of as rubbish.

Of course, there are also crews and production companies that are so stingy.

 Craven came over with a red-stained wooden bat and a prop knife and asked Martin: "Which one do you want?"

 Martin asked: "Can't I take them all? I want to take them all away."

Craven said seriously: "It is an unwritten rule that each person only carries one item."

Martin has never heard of it, but Craven is a relatively old-school filmmaker. He respected his opponent’s opinion and chose the wooden bat.

Ajia brought two glasses of champagne, one to each person, and they drank together: "I feel very good about this shooting. Martin and Wes, you are the best partners I have ever had in this industry."

Craven said: "I watched most of the scenes carefully. Ajia, you shot it well, and Martin acted well, especially the revenge scene in the second half."

He has been a screenwriter, director and producer for many years. Different from those who are literary and artistic, he is truly oriented to the front-line market and has a unique judgment on the market: "This model of one person, one dog and one gun, seems to be against the whole world. From a pure audience The angle feels particularly good and it should have a certain degree of market acceptance.”

“I think it’s going to be a genre,” says Martin.

 Because of his insufficient status and lack of funds, he would not elaborate.

A production manager came over from behind and said, "The people from the Screen Actors Guild are here."

Craven asked: "Is there nothing wrong with us? What are they doing here?"

"They asked Martin about the snake bite on the actor next door," said the production manager.

Craven had already known the details and said to Martin: "To tell the truth, what happened that day has nothing to do with you. Don't worry. You have paid your dues and you are one of their employers."

 “Understood.” Martin walked out.

 He was the investor’s representative, so Craven and Ajia simply followed him.

Martin is not worried. Dalot has already evacuated those subordinates. This is Mexico, not Los Angeles, and the Screen Actors Guild cannot find those people at all.

 Coming to the conference room next to it, a man and a woman were waiting.

ˆThe production manager introduced both parties, and the middle-aged man Wilson was obviously the leader.

 Martin shook hands with them and said: "Let's work as soon as possible, the crew still has activities."

Wilson was quite polite: "Mr. Davis, we take the liberty of interrupting. We mainly want to know about your communication with Mike Vogel on the day he was injured."

"He drank, and I drank too. What exactly were you talking about? They were just bragging to each other. He had to drag me to the wild to fight with venomous snakes..." Martin briefly talked about the banquet hall, and he could do it without lying. Clean: "I was scared when I found the rattlesnake, so I turned around and ran away. Many people saw it. On the way I left, I heard he was bitten by a snake. That's all."

This was no different from what Wilson learned. He asked a few more questions and took the initiative to leave: "Excuse me, Mr. Davis."

 Martin said politely: "It doesn't matter."

After the others left, Martin asked Craven: "Wes, how was it handled over there?"

Craven often interacted with Brad, the producer next door, and understood the situation: "The exit process was started over there. Vogel left the crew and wanted compensation from the crew and the insurance company. The crew said it was a personal act and there would be more to come later. Keep pulling."

Martin looked like he was lucky: "Fortunately, when the wind blew, I woke up a little. I would rather be a coward than get bitten by a snake."

Ajia said: "People like Vogel are asking for it. If you get injured, how much trouble will our crew have?"

Martin said something appropriate: "Maybe I am in the same agency as him, and my priority is higher than his, blocking his way."       Since the filming started, Craven and Martin have always had a good relationship. He specifically reminded: "That person is not You have good intentions, kid, there are people like this everywhere, you have to be careful in the future.”

 After filming is over, most of the crew will return to Los Angeles. Martin and Bruce will stay and move directly to the next door.

 In the evening, Martin hosted three stunt doubles, Buck, Lewis and Frank.

 Bruce presented the gift prepared by Martin.

Lewis said: "You are too polite."

 Martin laughed: "The most difficult and easily injured part is all shouldered by you. The action scenes are the easiest for me."

Barker shook his bald head and said: "The crew paid us."

 Martin picked up the small handbags and placed one in front of each person: "It's not something valuable, it's mainly to commemorate our special experience."

 Frank opened it with a bit of surprise: "Handheld game console?"

  Martin said: "You often play games during your breaks. I specially found someone to buy it, Nintendo GBA-SP."

This thing is not expensive, only US$150 per unit.

Lewis said: "I have been optimistic about Nintendo's new game console for a long time, but I have never bought it. Martin, I'm not polite."

Buck also put away his handbag. He had more ideas, so he bald: "Martin, if you need a stunt double in the future, remember to call us."

 Martin nodded: "I will definitely recommend you to the crew if we make action scenes again."

 In this cooperation, the three of them are relatively reliable in terms of weight-bearing.

The crew of "The Mountain Has Eyes" withdrew from Mexico, and Martin reported to the crew next door. He didn't even need to change the room, but only changed the crew who paid the bill.

His role has also changed from an avenger who kills all the perverted and deformed people to a sunny and handsome football coach.

On the first day he came to the set, Martin found Capis on the training ground: "Director, I'm here."

ˆ Capis looked at him for a moment. He was the same confident and handsome guy he usually saw, and asked: "Do you need a few days of rest to adjust?"

  Martin said: "No, I'm ready."

　　Karpis nodded: "You don't have to exert your strength, just show your true colors."

Martin said to himself that if he really wanted to play his true self, he would have to screw up the character.

ˆ Capis glanced at the shooting plan: "There is no scene for you today, so you can do it yourself."

“Director, you are busy.” Seeing that Capis was working normally, Martin took the initiative to leave.

However, he stayed on the set and integrated into the crew that had already started filming as soon as possible.

  The crew started filming soon.

 Martin came to the rest area, sat under a sun umbrella, and compared the character scripts to identify characters with whom he would interact.

 The person who has the most scenes with each other is naturally Blake Lively, and then the women’s football team members he leads.

 At the back of Martin's character script, there are many professional training terms.

Although he remembers the names of some stars, Martin is not even a pseudo-fan. He can only memorize these professional terms by rote.

Someone suddenly sat on the chair next to him. A woman with long dark brown hair took the initiative to say hello to Martin: "Hello, I'm Ai Bo."

 Martin nodded: "Hello." He looked at the other person who looked familiar. He had seen him while watching a movie some time ago: "Are you the girl in the opening scene of "The Ring"?"

Ai Bo smiled and said: "Yes, I am the girl who seeks death, and I play one of the four sisters here."

Blake, who was wearing sports shorts, came from the other side at this time, keeping his eyes on April, and said with great dignity, "You occupy my seat."

Reality is not as deep as sisterly love. April wanted to say something, but finally endured it. When he stood up, he said: "Martin, I wish you good luck."

 Martin waved his hand: "Goodbye."

 Blake pulled up the chair and sat down. The aura on his body disappeared instantly, and his tense face smiled brighter than the sun: "You are finally here."

She crossed her chest with one hand and held her chin up with the other, staring at Martin's beautiful profile: "Why do I think you are more handsome the more I look at you?"

 Martin knocked on the table: "Seriously, our scene will be filmed soon, so take some time to rehearse."

Blake said: "It's actually very simple. I fell in love with you at first sight and fell in love with you."

 Martin flipped through the script: "The training camp is over and then we separate?"

"Have you not read the original work?" Blake saw Martin nodding and said, "The first draft of the script must be separated. Brad did not agree with Uncle Capis's adaptation and recently changed the script, so after I returned home, I worked with him again You reunite, a perfect love.”

 They are both very dedicated. Blake has finished shooting the scene in the morning, and Martin does not have to shoot today. They discussed each other's roles.

 Communication with the actors is very important.

 After the crew finished work that day, Martin and Blake went to the beach to review their lines and rehearse.

 Blake is a pretty girl who works very seriously and works as hard as other actors. Although she comes from an acting family, her family background is not particularly outstanding among the second generation of Hollywood stars.

In Martin's opinion, the second generation of celebrities from top-notch families can only be happy if they are in the acting industry.
