The filming went very smoothly. Leonardo is a well-known actor who pursues acting skills. Andy Lau has also been in the entertainment industry for decades. The two can barely be called veteran actors. They can cope with the Tangier plot. Click on the content and get it at your fingertips. A week and a half later, the crew successfully finished filming, packed up, and set off for the Canadian ski resort of Calgary. Calgary is a mountain town located in the Rocky Mountains, where Banff National Park is located. "Inception" was filmed at the ski resort in Banff National Park. It is not an easy thing to obtain a filming permit in Banff National Park and build buildings on the snow-capped mountains. The clerk of Sasha Entertainment communicated with the park management many times before getting the permission at a considerable cost. Because it is the peak skiing season, filming will delay the opening of the ski resort to the public. Therefore, the park management requires that filming be opened for tourists to watch instead of skiing. For the sake of the beautiful scenery here, Wan Xiaohu finally agreed to this request. Therefore, when the crew arrived shortly after New Year's Day, a large number of tourists were already stranded in Banff National Park, and a large number of them were enthusiastic fans of the starring actors in "Inception." As soon as the crew's bus entered the park gate, it was warmly welcomed by these fans. "Well, let's stop the car for a moment. You guys go down to meet the fans and sign autographs. We'll wait ten minutes before going to the hotel." In this situation, Wan Xiaohu didn't want to spoil the scenery. But, when Leonardo, Ellen Page, Andy Lau, Chow Yun-fat and others got off the bus to sign autographs, he was hiding in the bus, enjoying the warmth of the air conditioner. Canada in January is still a snowy mountain, and the temperature is not low. It is best not to reach out if you can. When the fans outside the car saw the idols getting off the car, they burst into loud cheers and kept pushing forward, trying to get their hands on the notebooks and other things in their hands. Give autographs to idols. ¡°The enthusiasm of the fans is still really strong.¡± The driver sighed. Wan Xiaohu casually added: "To truly measure the value of a star, you still have to look at his fans. Without fans, no matter how good your acting skills are, you can only play villains and supporting roles. With fans, you can act in idol dramas even if you have facial paralysis." The producer on the other side laughed and said: "Today's teenagers make the most money, and they are all obsessed with idols. We grew up in an era where science fiction movies were king. What everyone was obsessed with was the character in the movie, the queen in "Star Wars". , Darth Vader, wow, I have a deep memory. Children nowadays are obsessed with the actors behind the movies. No matter what your acting skills are or what bad roles you play, they will still be fans of you. " "So, Sasha Entertainment. The main direction of attack is teenagers. "Twilight" will be our mainstay in the next five years, and we will continue to develop "The Hunger Games" to target teenagers." Several people chatted about fans, and then the topic changed. Moved to recent shoots. "It's been a hard time during this period. I'm not afraid of anything, but I'm just a little afraid of the cold." Wan Xiaohu wrapped his fur coat around him. "The planned shooting time here is not short. After all, it is the third dream space, so it is quite difficult to grasp." "There is no way, just overcome it! It is quite interesting to enjoy the snow scenery occasionally, just like experiencing the Eskimos "Tiger, you can't experience Eskimo life by staying in a hotel," the producer suggested. "Okay, since you enjoy it so much, I will arrange for someone to check out your hotel room and set up a tent for you in the photography area. By the way, you can also help our crew look at the equipment and save on transportation back and forth." "Well, I remembered. I have cold legs and can't sleep in the snow" Soon, ten minutes were up. With the fans reluctant to leave, the actors returned to the bus and drove to Banff National Park. 's hotel. The crew already had a life producer and arranged everything in the hotel. The external producer found Wan Xiaohu and asked him to lead the leading actors to the hotel conference room to be interviewed by reporters. Today, Wan Xiaohu is the most popular director in Hollywood and a master figure leading the trend of science fiction. The US$160 million blockbuster "Inception" directed by him has naturally attracted strong attention from major media before it has been filmed. The reporters could not sit still after learning that the filming was being done publicly in Banff National Park. After getting off the car and going into the room to change clothes and eat a light meal, Wan Xiaohu met the leading actors and went to the conference room. The content of this shooting is the battle in the snowy mountains on the third level of the dreamland. There are not many actors, only a few leading actors who have left the country. Leonardo, Andy Lau, Chow Yun-fat, Ellen Page, Cillian Murphy, and the rest are just a few supporting characters who don't need to show their faces. As soon as I entered the door, my eyes were filled with white.Mang, the reporter¡¯s flash weapon is too powerful. "Director Wan" "Leonardo" "Liu Dehua" "Zhou Runfa" The reporters, both Chinese and foreign, were crowded in the small conference room so densely that Wan Xiaohu and others , can only stand on the wall side of the conference room. Moreover, reporters seem to have to stretch their microphones in the faces of celebrities before they stop, for fear that their microphones will be far away and they will not be able to grab the opportunity to ask questions. "Don't be anxious, everyone. There is enough time for this press conference. Please enjoy the air conditioning and take your time. Everyone has a chance to ask questions." Wan Xiaohu dodged the microphone and said helplessly. After hearing that everyone had a chance to ask questions, the reporters shrank back. Then the slightly chaotic but still orderly questioning began. "Director Wan, I am a reporter from NBC. My name is XX. Find your figure." Wan Xiaohu pondered for a moment and said, "Everything is possible. I think I should appear once more in "Inception", but you need to find it. I can reveal that in "Inception". In "Rise of the Planet of the Apes", I had a wonderful performance. Well, I played an orangutan, Caesar's younger brother, and I also had a close-up of facial expressions, although it was very short. " In the past, Wan Xiaohu was keen on playing small roles. I am addicted to acting. Now that I have experienced so many things, I no longer have any interest in acting. The reason why he planned to play a small role in the movie was just to add a publicity stunt. Some viewers fell for this and went to the cinema several times in order to find Wan Xiaohu. During the release of "Rise of the Planet of the Apes", there were many fans with obsessive-compulsive disorder who repeatedly walked into the cinema in order to find Wan Xiaohu. Then many fans on the Internet discussed what Wan Xiaohu was hiding in the movie. It can be said that Wan Xiaohu himself also contributed a small amount to the global box office of "Rise of the Planet of the Apes" of 630 million. ¡°Moreover, we will continue to contribute to DVD sales. The final answer must be answered in the bonus features of the DVD. "Director Wan, you haven't revealed what type of science fiction story "Inception" is about. Now that it's open for filming, can you tell us what this movie is about?" "The basis for this movie is, It is a dream stealer. We have hidden the secrets of this dream stealer on some small objects and will distribute them for free to fans of "Inception" at many comic and film exhibitions this year and next year. In the hands of fans who are looking forward to it. I believe that with the wisdom of movie fans, it will only take a moment to unlock the secret of Dream Inception." Wan Xiaohu smiled meaningfully. Using Dream Inception as the main promotion was a plan developed by Sasha Entertainment Planning Department. "Inception" will use viral marketing to spread some short stories through the Internet to arouse the curiosity of the audience. In the early stage, we built several websites with introductions to Dream Inception, and then printed these websites on T-shirts, hats, water bottles and other souvenirs in the form of QR codes. Then it will be distributed to movie fans at animation exhibitions and film exhibitions around the world. These otakus who like to attend animation and film festivals like nothing more than to think about it. They will definitely find these QR codes, scan them, and finally enter the specially designed website. At the same time, some small spinning tops and USB flash drives will be distributed in various ways, and there will also be hidden secrets in them to divert the attention of movie fans to the website. The first website was very simple, it was called the Dream Stealer website. It contained a carefully designed instruction manual for the Dream Stealer, along with some clues and tasks, mainly to illustrate the possibility of dream stealers. Once you complete these tasks, you can jump to another website. The second website is called the ¡®Conscious Crime¡¯ website. There is also a third website, called the 'What is Dream Sharing' website, hidden on posters on the street, and then mainly introduces the origin and theoretical basis of dream stealing, trying to uncover the conspiracy of 'dream stealing', and can also jump to the end Go to the 'Crime Awareness' website. The Conscious Crime website will be the main promotional venue for the movie. According to the release schedule, some posters, trailers, etc. will be released in stages this year and next. If you want to be the first to see these contents, you must first complete some tasks such as the maze. Small tasks like games to attract everyone¡¯s interest. These websites will neither reveal the content of the movie prematurely nor tell it in a way that is too enigmatic, confusing and boring. Mainly through some publicity, it emphasizes the two science fiction concepts of ¡®your brain is the crime scene¡¯ and ¡®dreams are real¡¯. Then find some researchEnvironmental experts are invited to explain these arguments and create a feeling that this is not an illusory movie, but a real scientific documentary! In short, the promotion of "Inception" is a huge war. ¡°Director Wan¡± The reporters had many questions. The meeting lasted until noon, and then ended with the reporters taking photos with unfinished business. In this way, the filming progress of "Inception" is advancing rapidly.
