Chapter 308: *Thor 2* original cast, why is the schedule delayed again and again?

~6 min read 1,179 words

Xu Can returned to the office leisurely.

Seeing that the project proposal had been printed out, the original cast was to be gathered again.

*Thor 2* was still considering whether to continue acting.

The schedule had to be set in advance so as not to clash with other films!

The crew scene maintained the most professional state.

He stretched, and first came to the crew scene.

The most important thing for every sci-fi film is the construction and structure of the scene.

Art director Charles walked over.

He scratched the back of his head with a pen, "Making a divine realm more realistic is a huge challenge for me!"

Xu Can looked around at this venue. It looked plain and unremarkable now, but it would soon become a place that was both real and cool!

"Thor's hometown has its own unique culture. We must let the audience watching the film feel that this hometown truly exists; only then will it have texture!"

Charles became even more troubled. Just building the scene for a sci-fi film was already a difficult problem, and now he had to make this scene even more realistic!

"For us art directors, the construction process before filming every movie is a process of finding problems for ourselves. Why did I tell you to make it as realistic as possible!"

He smiled bitterly, but every time, it was exactly this kind of challenge that allowed them to create all kinds of miracles.

"I believe we can build all the scenes successfully together!"

In the office, they started to design as much as possible according to the script.

"Most of the scenes in the previous film took place inside the palace, but this time it's different!"

"We will explore Thor's hometown in depth, and we need to restore the Golden City in Norse mythology. These are all big challenges for us, and we must make them have their own unique culture while also containing a sense of the depth of time!"

Xu Can's words made the creative team silent as much as possible.

This would inevitably cause their schedule to be delayed again and again, and it was absolutely impossible to release it according to the specified time.

"There are so many audiences waiting for our film to be released. Further delays might make the audience impatient. Are you sure you still want to continue changing it?"

Charles pondered the various budgets again carefully.

This was not a small sum of money!

"Moreover, you require us to make it grand in scale and fine in workmanship. Just a bunch of requirements means all materials need to be top-notch. Is our budget really enough?"

"Do you still need to worry about the budget? With me, there is never a need to worry about the budget!"

Xu Can's words made them calm down for a moment.

"Since the budget is not a problem, we must start from our own strength. My creative team must put the biggest challenge on the Golden City as much as possible!"

Xu Can looked at the pictures on their computers.

It wasn't the most appropriate scene in his heart yet.

"The entire divine realm is a place with thousands of years of history. It must never look like a city that is completely integrated with modernization!"

Having its own cultural heritage is the most important thing.

"Can we determine the final style? If we want to have our own culture, we must determine a style, or fuse multiple styles together. It must be close to classical and connected to modern..."

Charles also put forward his own opinions.

Xu Can nodded gently.

Looking at the styles they kept finding, not all of them satisfied him.

"In the picture you are looking at now, it might be gorgeous and eye-catching after special effects modification. During the filming process, as long as you use the right light, you can also shoot this effect without re-P-ing it later!"

Xu Can nodded gently; he knew that too.

After many modifications, Thor's hometown was finally built successfully.

Xu Can didn't put forward any more modification opinions.

Charles finally relaxed.

"You finally stopped letting us modify it. The members of our team haven't slept comfortably for a long time. This is great!"

"Is it me who won't let you sleep? It's that your requirements for me are just as high. You don't want to let go of any detail. Everything shown on the lens will be a process of magnification..."

The production of props was relatively smooth.

Dozens of hammers had to be prepared in advance to avoid wear and tear during the filming process and to be replenished in time.

Hammers of different qualities and materials had to be prepared in advance to facilitate filming in different scenes. Some needed the props to be damaged in time, so lighter weights had to be chosen.

"These glowing hammers can be used when lightning hits the hammer, making it look as realistic as possible on camera!"

Everything was ready.

Xu Can stared at the lens.

Some preparations before filming still had to be done in advance.

"This waterfall is to be used in the film. You help me find a suitable angle, and by the way, take out the aerial photography equipment!"

No lens appeared out of thin air; it was only after their filming and exploration from multiple angles, as well as filming at different times and under different light, that they could choose the most suitable lens!

They made so many efforts just to make the entire film more refined.

Charles, as the prop team, also followed by his side, watching the props at the scene to see if there was any need for timely replacement.

"Not bad, this waterfall just now should be the most spectacular waterfall, right?"

It was almost identical to the hometown scene in their concept map.

"Of course!"

Soon they arrived at the filming site of Stonehenge.

Just as Xu Can set up the rack, the assistant hurriedly ran over.

"It's not good, I can't film!"

Charles also became nervous. This time was just right. If they couldn't film, their light would be affected, and they would need special effects to redo it, which wouldn't have such a stronger sense of reality!

"How can that be? We'll go talk to him again. Our filming permit has already been obtained, why won't they let us go? Could it be that they want to add money temporarily?"

Xu Can hurriedly grabbed Charles; he still had to hear clearly why.

The assistant gasped, "We got this filming permit, but there are still many rigid requirements. It just so happens that the time we arrived now is the opening time of the scenic spot, and there are many tourists, so we can't go over now!"

Xu Can hadn't even spoken yet, and Charles hurriedly said on the side, "Why? They didn't tell us this at the beginning and just let us come over. Isn't this delaying our time again? We can only come tomorrow!"
