The magic of cinema
5 Hollywood scenes, shooting of which demanded an incredibly great effort.
Despite the availability of advanced technology it is easy to assume that Hollywood can do everything. Lazy filmmakers can just sit down at the MacBook and to create the same effects that used to cost millions of dollars - for example, to blow up a couple of BMW. But in fact, the magic of Hollywood is not dead, and many of the scenes, about which we speak contemptuously: "Fake!" Worth more effort than it seems.

1. For the film "Pacific Rim" built entirely functional heads of giant robots.
"Pacific Rim" director Guillermo del Toro - a love song about a Japanese movie monsters. And it's true: the monsters fighting with robots, and we expect that everything was filmed in front of a green screen.
Yes, this is the head of the robot, "a life-size 'tall with four-story house. It is necessary to simulate the effects when people are inside the robot - for example, during the battle with the monsters.
Actors actually fastened to the metal contraption. They did talk, like rag dolls, they really poured gallons of water on top of that it was a bit risky, given that they were surrounded by these appliances.
Next - worse. Recall that the actors physically tacked to the metal rod. This means that they all felt the full program "bumpy". But the worst thing you can call it that, in order to detach from the terminal and get out of the "armor" was needed almost an hour. So if during the filming of a sudden wanted to use the toilet ...
2. In the movie "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory," starring real training proteins.
"Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" also demanded a lot of work. For example, in the film there is a scene where the Willy Wonka (Johnny Depp), shows a protein that put nuts on a conveyor belt. You might think that this is just a bunch of people hung with sensors, but they are real proteins. In fact, to teach them the trick, it took several months.
In other words, if you think that a fictional character Willy Wonka was crazy enough to teach squirrels nuts put on the conveyor, in our world there is a real, and therefore even more crazy people who really did it - director Tim Burton.
Protein, by the way, is very difficult to train. They are not domesticated for generations. This is not a dog that learns what you like in a couple of weeks of practice. So the work was incredible, incredibly difficult.
The process demanded not only a repetition of the same with a thousand times the same animal was still needed and special props - a material that proteins could gnawing.
According to the scenario proteins also were to attack the girl, and that they also taught. Yes, in this scene involved real live proteins. However, the actress was out of danger: instead give it to the mercy of tens of rodents used understudy. She put on a mask, indistinguishable from face of the actress to make her look like a girl and protect the eyes from squirrel claws.
3. In the movie "Iron Man 3" with parachute jumping real paratroopers.
In "Iron Man 3" Digital effects are not just a lot, but a lot. Well, how else to portray the man in a suit, rocket, which is struggling with the soldiers from the lava? So you can decide what is the scene in which Iron Man must save the people thrown out of the aircraft, also made by computer simulation. Although, if only because the actors to throw out of the plane without a parachute prohibited by the rules of the union.
According to executive producer Louis D'Esposito first jump really planned to stay in front of a green screen. And then the director of the second plan mentioned that sign with the team of skydiving «Red Bull». And for some reason we decided that capture the scene live - a great idea. And what a professional skydiver does not want to play in a movie?
The problem, however, was the fact that even professional skydivers choose to jump out of an airplane with a parachute on his back. The crew are reluctant to admit it, and special costumes were made to the parachutes was not visible under clothing. It took eight days and 600 jumps, to work out and shoot the scene. Below is a must have looked strange: people were thrown out of the plane in business suits and military uniforms. Over and over again.
Learn to skydive difficult than simply portray that jump. Jump beautiful - even more difficult. And use the camera in such conditions too difficult. This means that a multimillion-dollar blockbuster dependent on a group of people sponsored by the energy drink. But in the end everything was possible.
4. For the film "Evan Almighty" to build a real Ark.
From sequel "Bruce Almighty," no one but Morgan Freeman did not expect anything good. It may seem that the film was made only in order to earn money. And even more surprisingly, for a film from scratch built Noah's ark.
Wooden monster designed production designer Linda DeStsenna. She also worked on the film "Blade Runner" and "Back to the Future 2". The ark was 76 meters long, 25 meters wide and 15 meters high.
Then, the ark came 200 live animals 90 species, ranging from otters and ending with lions and horses. Above the stage worked 86 trainers. Recall that the animals are not always everything goes smoothly, sometimes they run away, sometimes you have to reshoot something, so it was necessary to ensure that the predator and the potential victim were not in the same room. And for one lion had to watch four trainers.
The rest of the scenes in the film are made using special effects. And the ark within a week after the shooting were separated on board - like a real biblical relic.
5. During the filming a remake of "The Evil Dead" actors must have planned to kill.
hen in 2013, the year it was announced that shooting a remake of "The Evil Dead" fans breathed a sigh of relief: it became known that the director completely abandoned the use of digital special effects to keep the spirit of the original of 1981. True, most of us at the same time hardly think that actors have signed a contract agree to torture.
For example, in the film there is a scene in which someone tears of blood to the face of another character. Half a minute. The only way to do this - almost drown actress. What we did with actress Jane Levy - she had to lie on your back and think about the good, until the sticky red liquid poured from a hose on her face. Under the plan, at the end of the scene, when the actress already starts to choke, the scene has dosnimut.
But it's flowers. Levy says that her "favorite" scene in this film (which says a lot, considering that even the poor thing had to endure for the film) - the one in which she covered their faces with plastic and buried alive.
No, really - it was possible to bury a dummy. But the filmmakers were afraid that will not be enough realistic then. So they gave Levi a tube for breathing and actually threw her ground. So the "Evil Dead" - really realistic horror film. Think about it, if you reconsider.
