PASSAGE TWENTY-SEVEN

Wonderful experience

1.About twenty of us had been fortunate enough to receive invitations to a film-studio to take part in a crowd-scene.

2.Although our “act” would last only for a short time, we could see quite a number of interesting things.

3.We all stood at the far end of the studio as workmen prepared the scene, setting up trees at the edge of a winding path.

4.Very soon, bright lights were turned on and the big movie-camera was wheeled into position.

5.The director shouted something to the camera operator and then went to speak to the two famous actors nearby.

6.Since it was hot in the studio, it came as a surprise to us to see one of the actors put on a heavy overcoat and start walking along the path.

7.A big fan began blowing tiny white feathers down on him, and soon the trees were covered in “snow”.

8.Two more fans were turned on, and a “strong wind” blew through the trees. The picture looked so real that it made us feel cold.

9.The next scene was a complete contrast. The way it was filmed was quite unusual. Pictures taken on an island in the Pacific were shown on a glass screen.

10.An actor and actress stood in front of the scene so that they looked as if they were at the water’s edge on an island.

11.By a simple trick like this, palm trees, sandy beaches, and blue, clear skies had been brought into the studio!

12.Since it was our turn next, we were left wondering what scene would be prepared for us.

13.For a full three minutes in our lives we would be experiencing the excitement of being film “stars”!

美妙的经历

1.我们当中大约有20人有幸收到了一家电影制片厂的邀请，参加了一个人群场景的拍摄。

2.虽然我们的“表演”只会持续很短的时间，但我们可以看到相当多有趣的事情。

3.我们都站在摄影棚的另一端，工人们在一条蜿蜒的小路边上架起树木，为场景做准备。

4.很快，明亮的灯光被打开，巨大的电影摄像机被推到合适的位置。

5.导演对摄像师喊了几句，然后去找附近的两位著名演员说话。

6.由于摄影棚里很热，我们很惊讶地看到一个演员穿上了厚厚的大衣，开始沿着小路走。

7.一个大风扇开始把细小的白色羽毛吹到他身上，很快树就被“雪”覆盖了。

8.又有两个风扇被打开，一股“强风”吹过树林。这幅场景看起来很真实，使我们感到很冷。

9.接下来的情景形成了完全的对比。它的拍摄方式很不寻常。在太平洋一个岛屿上拍摄的照片显示在一个玻璃屏幕上。

10.一对男女演员站在布景前，使他们看起来好像是在一个岛屿的水边。

11.通过这样一个简单的技巧，棕榈树、沙滩和蓝色、晴朗的天空被带入了演播室!

12.既然下一个轮到我们了，我们就不知道会为我们准备什么场面。

13.在我们的生活中，有整整三分钟的时间，我们会体验到成为电影“明星”的兴奋!
