Reborn as the Sweetheart of a Paranoid Boss-Chapter 446: Filming the Grand Scene

Looking at the image displayed on the computer, Selena Kensington stood up.

"Camera one, move a bit further away, uh, shift slightly to the east."

"Camera three can lower the lens a bit... Yes, just like that."

"Okay, remember to focus the lights on the lead actor’s face."

Selena stood up and directed for a while, looked at the image reflected on the computer, then sat down satisfactorily.

"Have the fight instructor guide them again, and remember to avoid accidental injuries."

"Start as soon as everything is ready."

Selena said to the production assistant beside her.

"Okay, Director Kensington."

Then, the production assistant went down to give instructions.

This time, Selena brought several fight instructors to handle such a grand scene.

After waiting for another ten minutes, when the assistant returned, Selena said, "Let’s start."

"First scene, two armies face off."

"Action!!!"

After the assistant spoke, the wind machines below started working.

The wind from the machines made the battle flags of both armies fly.

And the warriors of both armies had solemn and murderous expressions.

Occasionally, a horse neighed, but no soldier took the first action.

Both sides were engaging in a silent confrontation.

After a while, Karth’s Great General said, "Rhys Kidd!!! Today, this will be your burial place!!!"

With the words of Karth’s Great General, many soldiers in Karth’s camp raised their spears in protest.

"Karth will win!"

"Karth will win!"

"Karth will win!!!"

Faced with such provocation from the enemy, The Valerion Kingdom’s soldiers couldn’t stand it anymore.

A soldier already said to the general riding the horse in front, "General! Karth is bullying us too much! We request to fight!"

"General! Please allow us to fight!"

"Let us fight!"

The soldier’s words quickly infected other soldiers, who eagerly said.

The general did not answer the soldier’s request but looked towards Rhys Kidd in front.

"Crown Prince, please give orders."

The general respectfully said.

Rhys Kidd held the horse’s reins, turning it to face The Valerion Kingdom’s soldiers.

"Our Valerion Kingdom soldiers are naturally brave and invincible!!!"

"We don’t care for Karth’s small provocations..."

Turning the horse’s reins again, facing Karth’s army, he continued the previous words, "But we will not tolerate such arrogance either!!!"

With Rhys Kidd’s words, The Valerion Kingdom’s soldiers were roused.

They didn’t want to lose momentum to Karth and shouted.

"The Valerion Kingdom is invincible!!"

"The Valerion Kingdom is invincible!!!"

Rhys Kidd listened to the soldiers’ powerful chants, slightly lowered his head to look at Paloma Quinn beside him.

A hint of tenderness flashed in his eyes.

"Are you ready? This is your battlefield."

Rhys Kidd said to Paloma Quinn.

Paloma’s lips slightly curled, her eyes showing confidence and strategizing demeanor, "Naturally."

This war, she had waited too long for.

Her gaze turned to the great general among Karth’s army, showing hatred and determination.

That is the one who slaughtered her Vorlag people in The Royal Capital!!!

She will personally take his head!

"Sound the war drums!!!!"

’Boom Boom Boom!!!’

With the order, war drums thundered across both armies.

The drumbeat became louder, and the warriors’ chants got even louder.

The tension was palpable.

War, on the brink of eruption.

"Cut! Passed!"

The assistant’s words signified a successful take of the scene.

Selena was satisfied with the extras.

They didn’t falter nor try to muddle through amidst the crowd.

"These extras are pretty good this time."

Selena praised.

"Yes, these selected extras have spent two to three years in the film city, they are mostly familiar with these grand scenes, with some guidance, they quickly understand."

Assistant Director Elder Xu explained beside her.

Selena nodded, "Let them adjust a bit, then let’s film the next scene."

The next scene is about the armies starting to battle.

It requires various fight scenes and high camera usage demands.

"Okay."

After more than ten minutes, the set started operating again.

"Action!!!"

The assistant’s words fell.

The scene then switched to the formal combat.

"Attack!!!!"

"Charge!!!"

The soldiers of both armies engaged in battle.

The clash of weapons made piercing sounds.

Rhys Kidd and Paloma wielded their spears, moving freely among the enemy, killing Karth soldiers one by one.

In just a few minutes, their bodies were stained with unknown blood.

And there were more people falling on the battlefield.

"Stop!"

Selena suddenly shouted.

"Maintain this position."

She added.

"People on the east side, watch the people around you."

"As for those beside the protagonists, manage your expressions, display the mindset of disregarding life and death, determined to protect your home and country."

"The camera can have more close-up and wide shots, and put more focus on the extras."

"Alright, continue."

After saying a few things, Selena sat down.

The assistant glanced below and immediately had the people on the set adjust.

A few minutes later, the scene continued filming.

This scene took over an hour to shoot.

During filming, Selena stopped several times to make various adjustments before concluding the scene.

After more than an hour.

Selena first let the actors rest and have a wash.

After all, there were quite a few rolling shots.

She watched the just-filmed images with the assistant director.

The images displayed on the computer.

"These shots can actually be combined."

The assistant director said.

"Some are duplicated, Paloma’s close-up can be delayed a second or two and then accelerated."

Selena nodded at the assistant director’s suggestion.

Sloane Hawthorne’s skin looked great, even under the camera’s close-up, she stood up to it.

Moreover, Selena hadn’t let the makeup artist apply heavy makeup to Sloane, just a bit of sunscreen.

This made Sloane even more dazzling under the lens.

"Capture this frame as a promotional image."

Selena pointed at Paloma’s close-up on the screen.

The assistant director nodded beside her, "Okay."

After the actors touched up their makeup and rested for ten minutes, the crew began shooting other scenes.

The afternoon’s filming passed quickly.

After finishing today’s shoot, Selena let the crew pack up the equipment and props to rest at the hotel.

Back at the hotel, Selena called Sterling Norwood.

"Sterling."

As soon as the call connected, Selena shouted.
