“Ottoman” production is the first commentary

[the return of the Otto series of the general guide・Showa] The Showa section is updated every Thursday, and the Heisei article is updated every Monday

The third time “Ottoman” production is the first commentary (first part).

“Ottoman” officially started shooting on March 16, 1966, starting with 3 words together. This section of supervision is Iijima Minhiro, so the first three of the “Ottoman” live production sequence belong to the Iijima group. These three are the second words of the later screening order, “Fire to the Invaders”, the fifth words “The Secret of Cordyceps”, and the third words “The Battle of the Kurt”. On the first morning of the boot, I started photography at 9 o’clock and lunch at 12 o’clock. The first shot of the first scene of the first scene was produced in the battle room of the Science Special Search Team. After receiving the newsletter, the Fuji Mingzi team turned over and reported to the team leader

Before each shot is officially photographed, it will be customary for all the cast members of the scene to rehearse once, and each of them will be played again, but the camera has not started to operate. Because we know that the film is very expensive, so not only have to go through the test rehearsal without directly filming, and even the test shot is not just an audition. In this test phase, the Mingzi team took off the headphones, but the official photography version, which is the feature film that can be seen today, is not picked. There is also the first sentence in the test phase is “Captain!” and then start reporting, but this sentence is also omitted in the positive film I saw today, directly to start reporting

The big machine in front of the correspondent Akiko is the set of the Kurt team of the art supervised by Iwasaki in the “Ottoman” class. The large props that express the scientific sense of the science team’s futuristic sci-fi. After seeing the film, they all know that the lights on the wall are dynamic and flashing. Iwasaki originally planned to participate in the debut of the Yokoya stunt studio “WoO” in 1963, but did not come (refer to the end of the eighth end of the “Aote Series Tong Z”). Later, it was the art supervision of this class in “Ottoman”, “Otsai” and “Odds and Great Warfare”, and it was overloaded with a little space between “Altman” and “Otsai”. In the file, I also went to support the “Fast Animals” produced at the same time

All the automated instruments in the room, of course, were not really valuable for the automatic equipment to be photographed at the time. They were connected with wires, and they were controlled by the exercise class led by the technician. However, there were still not enough people at the time. After the audition, I was ready to start formal photography. The foreman assisted Suzuki Junji, who had already shouted the first command: “Make the first words! Scene 1! Lens 1! Formally prepared!” Iijima Supervisor personally shouted the starting order, but he suddenly heard someone whispering behind him: “Supervise, supervise…” Iijima turned back and the performance assistant handed him a thing: “Sorry… insufficient manpower Can this please ask you a little first…”.

That thing is a small metal rod for the exercise class. Holding this behind the circuit board, it corresponds to the lights on the big instrument in front of the Mingzi team, so it can realize the seemingly irregular light and dark flashing. Effect. Iijima looked up and looked around, not to mention that the acting assistants of the exercise class did not have any hands, and even the other classes were not even free, and everyone had tasks. Okay, Iijima said that there was no way, so I had to supervise and personally perform the operation of this small light bulb. So it means that in the photography, while watching the circuit board while watching the actors’ acting skills, he has achieved acrobatics that is actually very difficult to operate

Just this morning, I also photographed the following shot of the map. Obviously this is a synthetic lens, which is photographed by this class and handed over to the optical photography technician Nakano of the special technical class in the later stage. Ichikawa Liming producers have just said with Iijima that the synthetic lens is limited to a maximum of three words, and the first day of photography is so consumed. Because the synthesis work takes a lot of time, it is necessary to try to shoot the material as early as possible

This is a typical masked image with a blue screen technology. The box in the completed dynamic lens is the meaning of the screen. The map on the screen is enlarged a little until it is accurate to the coordinate point pointed by the village captain. The box part is actually a piece of blue at the scene, and the actor stands there and points to a point on the blue part. Part of the map is photographed separately, and the focal length is adjusted a little in the photography to form an effect like the map is magnified. The last two sides are recombined, and the dynamic map shot is placed in the box

It can be seen that this is not a successful shot at the time, the hand of the village captain and the pointer and the shadow of the head of the head, so covered in the synthesis work. In addition, you can see that when the captain pointed at the small stick, the precise coordinates of the finger were shaking slightly, because at the time, there was no map that could not see the exact position. That kind of special technology (= “special photo”) is not as old as it is now, and there are fewer actors who have the opportunity and experience to participate in this synthetic lens. It is a magical experience

Although Iijima did not participate in the planning stage closely, but since it is the first block of the production site, the three of the Iijima group played a key role in the “Altman”, but also directly The foundation of the entire Altman series. The first of them, the screening of the Baltan Stars appeared in the second sentence, “Fire to the Invaders”, and the island was put on the vest of the vest of the North Male. I used to say that he changed the name of the protagonist from forced water to Honda, and this time I will say one more. The famous child, Hoshino-no, whose full name is Hoshino, is because I have a brother named Iijima

Many of the elements established in the 3rd book have become things that have been circulating for half a century, directly forming an effect on the examples of the works after the series. For example, the serials of the past predecessors also told stories. At this time, no one has ever seen how Altman shines, how to take off and fly, what is the scene, and the OP of Altman. The effect of discoloration and smoke on the screen. These were not created in the house at the planning stage. They were led by Iijima Supervisor and Takano Hiroshi (substance stunt supervisor) at the position of the photographer. The production team of the Iijima Group was developing a brain hole on the front line of photography

The first draft of the script was completed on February 10, 1966, the original title “Baltan Stars”. At this time, there is no precedent script that can be referred to in Iijima. There are only the plan book and the agreement issued by the Tokyo Broadcasting and Television Station (TBS). This series of documents we have talked about in the past is a reference. The Baltan Stars became the first cosmic person in the commemorative Altman history. On the posters of various monsters in later generations, the introduction of the Baltans was also familiar to the party

Of course, the topic here is not about setting, it is always used to tell the reality. There is basically one less sentence in the introduction. It is said that the weakness of the Baltans is a certain element of the squirrel that exists on Mars, and Altman’s slaying squirrel light contains this element. How can you be so smart! Here, it actually contains 2 points. The first point is that the Baltans are of course entirely created by Iijima. The second point is that the light of Speightsam is also the creation of Iijima from head to toe

Let me say the second point, the documents have been shown in the past, and the light of Speights is not something that exists in the planning stage. This is the earliest script for Iijima, and the premise is only for the plot. The name of the light is from Iijima, and the substance of Spencer is also set by Iijima. Literal translation means the cosmic element, set to the atomic number 133, and the element that is not currently in the periodic table. There are also those who have also talked about the serials of the predecessors. How do the cross-cutting movements lie, the light that is emitted is a visual image, and it is also agreed by Iijima and Takano

So the original logic, not Altman’s common killing technique just contains the Baltan star’s nemesis, but Altman deliberately issued this kind of light to use the Baltans. It was only later that it continued, and it became the status of Altman’s nirvana. Not only has it developed into a symbol of Altman, but it has become a big symbol of the whole series. There is also a more fundamental point beyond its own to be aware that this is clearly laid out an impression. That is to say, Altman’s symbolic skills, the nature is light, the entire Altman series is such a representative expression is light

This sci-fi sensation was extremely pioneering in the era, and it was hardcore to let the audience dream. The deeper reason, the source of inspiration, is precisely because it is a grain studio, there is a brand of Yuan Gu Ying Er, so this product will appear. Because at that time, the English-speaking old man was a special film for special effects supervision in Dongbao, he often played this way, because this kind of image has high requirements for optical synthesis of special technology. At that time, there was no other production capacity in other places, so there would be no soil for this kind of creativity

To say the first point, Iijima’s creation of the Baltan Stars is inseparable from Mars. This is because, then the elements contained in the light of Speights are brought to Mars, which is fruit. In the mind and cognition of Iijima, or in his feelings and imagination, his origin of the concept of the universe is Martian. Now when talking about the entire Altman series, say monsters, cosmic people, subconsciously used to be like a thing, and the image and concept of the existence of the cosmic human enemy in the series is the foundation of the establishment of Iijima..

Originally, “Otto Q” was named “Otto Q” by TBS, and the route was also designated as a monster theme by Sakai. The production of Jincheng Zhefu’s pen script is in the fifth book “The Gift of the Universe” and the 17th book “The Egg”, which implies the existence of the universe but no cosmic people appear. For the first time, the Otto series clearly has a cosmic person debut, which was made in the official script of Uehara Masahiro. “Otto Q” produced the 19th “Cosmic Command M774”. However, this time the cosmic people only appeared in the appearance of human beings. At that time, in the Dongbao special film, there were cosmic people appearing in this way

For the first time, there is a cosmic person image that is consistent with the concept of the general Otto series. I came to Iijima to participate in the original work of “Otto Q” and produced the 21st “Challenge of 2020”. Iijima served as the supervisor of this article and personally wrote the script, and co-authored with Jincheng to become a masterpiece of “Otto Q”. For the first time, a cosmic person who clearly has his own appearance and violates the common sense of human body structure and has enormous capacity has appeared in the works of the Otto series

At this time, the original script of Altman, the Baltan Stars completely established the first character image of this nature in the history of Altman. The existence of the cosmic man has the same status as the monster in the historical Altman series, which is formed through such changes. Iijima made a preparation draft, and the title was still “Baltan Stars”. In fact, it was also a bit of a crime and the original “Otto Q” was shown in the first words “Down with Gomes!” “The same rebellious mentality.” The more you emphasize the monster route, the more I want to make something different, then let a cosmic person come out, anyway, it is in line with Sakai’s requirements for monsters

And the nature and characteristics of the Baltan Stars are also very painstaking, their ideas, origins, status, communication methods and so on. It shows that the people of the earth and the Baltans are dealing with each other. It is not only the people who look different, but the two civilizations that are different from each other and do not understand each other. Even the setting of the cosmological language has been brought up, and all of them reflect the sci-fi creative thinking that the works of the time are still scarce, and the new works start from scratch, starting from the perspective of the original source. However, after the long-term series of habits in the following year, many points are simplified, which is the characteristics of the times

The cosmology idea came up because the island was originally used to let the cosmos say it, and it was prepared to arrange the dialogue between Altman and the Baltans. However, according to the agreement between TBS Film and Television and the Round Valley Stunt Studio, the cosmic superhero who originally defined this M87 nebula (instead of the M78 nebula) expresses its meaning in a similar way to electrocardiogram. No verbal discourse will be made. After learning this, he was guilty. How to express the communication between Altman and the Baltans, so he simply saved the country and replaced it with the Baltans and the early field players. Therefore, in the plot, this is the appearance of the Baltan Stars who are possessed by the scientific search team and realize the dialogue of the universe through the human mouth

Science’s special search team’s well-handed team player, the original actor is Ishikawa, guest of “Otto Q” production, the last one, “The bottom of the ultra-quick westward”, is the island to supervise this article. Ishikawa was a relatively red star at the time. Iijima wrote the original script of Altman. The space for character image creation and action performance was quite large. He wrote the role of the well-handed player. It is based on the premise of Ishikawa. As a result, three days after the start of the auction, Ishikawa’s withdrawal from the low pay was considered

In the serial of the predecessor, I said that I played a two-day performance in Ishikawa, and it should be revised to three days. This will put a lot of pressure on the schedule of the Iijima group. First, I have to find a new actor to come on the bench, and I have to retake the scene of the well-handed player Ishikawa has already played. At that time, Iijima was really alive and agitated. The related affairs of the casting and the actors were theoretically managed by Dongbao. Therefore, of course, Dongbao was responsible for filling the pit

There are two bottles in the waiting list of the well-handed players, so he is allowed to go, that is, the instar inventor who we can see in the film today. The second bottle is the exclusive actor of Dongbao, and Gu Gumin came in the same period, and he is already a good friend. This time, the Kurt team is in addition to the team captain and the team members, the others are Dongbao people, plus Dr. Altman and Dr. Iwamoto are also Dongbao people. As a result, it was not long before the two bottles came, and the rice island supervision was angered

He didn’t deal with Iijima Supervisor, so he was a little nervous when he first came. He could only ask for the predecessors who came three days earlier than him. The Honda team said that the husband, anyway, I am like this, only dealing with the supervision of the film. After all, they are people from Dongbao, and Iijima is a TBS person. As a descendant of Dongbao, the Mingzi team is a predecessor on the topic of what kind of person in Iijima, because she has been a heroine for more than a year at the photography site of Otto Q. However, the older generation is still a member of the team. We also said that he has appeared in many TBS TV series, and I have been able to manage his friendship with Iijima Sauce

岚 The team member said no problem, Iijima Sauce is a good guy who will guide you thoughtfully as long as you work hard. The well-handed players are not enough peace of mind, and then ask the Mingzi again, you also filmed the play with the Iijima Supervisor, right? The Mingzi team said that it was of course, and then I blew the island to the sky, saying that Iijima’s supervision was like my eldest brother. He can teleport over time, but he can also explain it to you easily. Then he will leave like a spring breeze. Now he can continue to shoot new dramas with Iijima Supervisor. When he comes, he will go abroad to travel overseas. My brother is back. This wave finally reassures the well-handed players, so they began their own rehearsal before the official photography. The first shot of the day did not have the captain’s play, so they came early with their four players

I practiced the well hand and pointed to the Taiwanese questioning team. How do you read this sentence? I looked at the eye socket… and then moved my lips to say, this is pronounced “Bunny Longhorn.” The well hand was forced, and the rabbit had a long horn, and Honda had heard it. Let me show it. Looking at the position he pointed to on the table, the Honda team said solemnly, the right hand, this is really pronounced “Bunny Longhorn.” …… This round is really forced by Mingzi, and I don’t know this line. I saw that Asada was making eyes to her, and she was pulling her sleeves

Oh! Understand what conspiracy these two great men are doing, and the captain of the captain will not lick his nose on both sides. So Mingzi decided… 呃 纣 虐 虐In fact, what is going on here is to try to explain to those who have no basis in Japanese, which is the following. The truth is the word “total” in Japanese, pronounced “とにかく”. However, this pronunciation is converted into Chinese characters in Japanese and can be written as “兎に角”, which is written on the table

However, Chinese characters are converted back into pronunciation. It is normal to have a plurality of pronunciations in Japanese. As for what to read, this is a problem of language foundation. Written as “兎に角”, you can read it in the end, you can also read it as if you are growing on the rabbit head. But of course, the Japanese generally know that this should mean “in short,” and no one really understands what it means. The language threshold required in this specific case is not high, but the well-handed player… He is a very hard-working person with Chinese characters

They then practiced on their own, this has a shot that is well-handed and talked: “The rabbit is a long-horned horn, and the squad is a player.” The well-handedly said this, but still loudly, a serious. Honda laughed and laughed, but he laughed and said that it was very good. The well is really honest, is it good, then come again. It’s really been practiced all the time. After a while, at 8:30 in the morning, Iijima Supervisor arrived and the scheduled start time was 9:00. After the greetings were finished, the photography preparation work was completed. The photography technician Takano Hiroshi and the lighting technician Kobayashi also waited, and the production staff were also in place

However, it is not official photography. Just said that there must be a test phase first. It was the turn of these shot. Iijima Supervisor issued the order for the audition to start, and the scoreboard also started. The well-handed team member: “The rabbit long-horned horn, the squad player.” The other three players instantly had a cold back, but look at the rice island supervision. With a mouth open, nothing is said. At the scene of the photography, the order of supervision is like a military order. As long as the supervision does not clearly scream a CUT, in principle, the actors should continue to perform as usual. If it is a formal photography, then the photographic technician must not stop the camera, and continue to let it convey the film, all strictly in accordance with the clear instructions of the supervision

So everyone finished the audition as usual, and finally waited for the order to stop at the island. Then he said a word to the well, and the lines should be written according to the words written on the Taiwanese. I heard a little of pressure, but of course I didn’t say anything, just responding to a sentence, I know. So Iijima orders, test again! The board was started again. The well hand: “Bunny long horn, squad player.”… He said, he really said, the other three players secretly glanced at each other, the atmosphere did not dare

This time Iijima Supervisor shouted on the spot, Kata Kaka! Two bottles of Jun, what did you say? The second bottle was also sternly replied: “The rabbit has a long horn, 岚.”… At this moment, Takano Hiroshi peeked at the camera’s viewfinder’s eyes and moved away. Xiaolin Zhe only left the main light and put the other The lights are off, and the movements of the other production staff are all like the fixed image in the lens. Iijima’s supervision is still calm: “I’ll ask again, what did you just say?” Two bottles: “Bunny Longhorn, 岚 Player…?”.

Iijima: “Well, I know, OK.” After a second or two, he continued: “If you work like this, I hope you will go out from the studio right now.” His tone is steady. No change has occurred. As for the two bottles, it has completely fallen into a state of confusion. Iijima saw him not moving, and then the next sentence: “If you don’t go out, then I will go out.” Then he turned and walked away. ……The studio immediately blasted the pot, and the squad members seemed to suffer the most: “It’s awful! The rice island sauce is actually angry!” The Honda team shook his head silently

The foreman assisted Suzuki Jun, who was next to him, and had been eager to figure out what the hell was. Take a look at Taiwan and then say to the two bottles, is this not “in short”, it is “in short”!.. two bottles suddenly realized! Then mourn, Suzuki saw this posture and understood that he really did not understand, and quickly went back to the island. Later, Iijima returned to the room with a smile, and after half an hour, the camera was finally settled. At this time, the captain of the village has also come, and there is no need to wait for the victim or the supervisor to investigate the culprit. After learning what happened, the first thing the captain is to smash the squad members of the bully!

“Ottoman” produced this first book in the history of the scene, the most quintessential shocking the country at that time, or the special photography film produced by the special technical class, the scene of Baltan Star and Altman. Next time, focusing on the special scene, I will continue to explain the production of “Ottoman”. I will mention another point today. The following picture shows the air battle images of Altman and Baltan. The panoramic lens is of course a newly created two-person doll that exists only for this lens, while the close-up shows that the two are beaten together in the air and flipped

This is the simplest and most effective photography method used by Takano Hiroshi, and the blind photography in special photography techniques. The body part of the actor 2 does not need to move at all, nor does it have to be flipped, let alone the suspension line of the performance class hanging in the air. In the movement, only the cameras controlled by Takano’s hands deliberately swayed to achieve fierce battles, and the process was also turned 360 degrees. In the lens, the special photos of the high-risk killings of Altman and Baltans were formed
