Ungabizi uNeill Blomkamp nge Hollywood umqondisi, okungenani akusenani. Le ntokazi eneminyaka engama-37 ubudala yaseGoli ishiye ukucwebezela okuphezulu kwezitudiyo ezinkulu zaseHollywood emuva kanti njengamanje ipholisha enye yezayo.

Futhi, ungamfoneli nje umqondisi wezinganekwane zesayensi; uzonda amalebula. Eqinisweni, i- Isizinda se-9 umqondisi unethemba lokuqondisa amafilimu asabisayo; eziningi zazo. Okuningi kulokho kamuva.

Ifilimu yakhe yakamuva ingukushintshwa kwe-horror / sci-fi, kepha ngeke idlalwe e-El Capitan eHollywood Boulevard noma eGrauman's Chinese Theatre. Cha, lo msebenzi wobuciko wobuciko umahhala futhi usakazwa ku-YouTube njengamanje.

Yebo, kunjalo, indoda eyake yabizwa ngomunye wabantu abanethonya kakhulu eHollywood futhi ebhekele izingoma ezinkulu ezifana Isizinda se-9, I-Elysium futhi I-CHAPPiE, ikhipha izikhindi ezibukeka ezinkulu zesabelomali mahhala kusiphequluli sakho. Futhi kuyamangalisa.

Lokhu kungena kwakamuva, okungokwesithathu ochungechungeni olungalingani, kubizwa I-Zygote (buka ngezansi), futhi yikho konke okufunwa ngumlandeli owesabekayo, kufaka phakathi enye yezinhlekelele eziphazamisayo nezinobuhlakani bokugxila inyamazane yayo emaphaseji aphakathi kwezinkanyezi eminyakeni.

Kepha ukuze uqonde ukuthi kungani uBlomkamp efuna ukuphuma eTinseltown ayokwenza lawa ma-blockbusters aluma, kufanele wazi ukuthi wenzani esikhundleni salokho.

Usungule isitudiyo esibizwa nge-Oats Studios, isitudiyo esisebenza ngaphansi ngokuphelele kuyo yonke iminyango. Lokho kufaka iqembu le-Visual Effects, igazi lamafilimu akhe adlule nawamanje. Ngalokho, waya kuchwepheshe.

“Ngakho ngisebenze noChris Harvey ongumphathi wemiphumela ku-'CHAPPiE, '” usho kanje. “Ngimncenge ukuthi eze ezojoyina i-Oats bese ngihola uMnyango we-VFX lapha. Waqhubeka futhi wakhetha lolu hlobo 'lweqembu le-ninja' labantu abangaba ngu-20 ngqo. Zifana nangempela, empeleni, ngempela abafana abanamakhono. ”

In I-Zygote, uyabona ukuthi leli qembu lizibophezele kangakanani ekwenzeni umkhiqizo wekhwalithi nokujabulisa osebenza ngaphansi nje kwemizuzu engama-30.

Izingxenye zokubukwa okwenziwe ngamakhompiyutha kanye nokusebenzekayo kwenziwa kungabonakali. U-Blomkamp uyachaza ukuthi lokhu kungumphumela weqembu elincane elisebenza esakhiweni sokufakelwa kanye nokuxhumana okuqhubekayo phakathi kweminyango, “kuyizinga elihle nje lokuqapha lelo hlobo lomkhiqizo elinomphumela omuhle obukeka ungokoqobo; endaweni ethile phakathi kokusebenziseka kanye ne-CGI; kutholakale ibhalansi, ”usho kanje.

Izizathu zakhe zokuya eholweni laseHollywood azilingani, futhi akagunci amagama uma ubuza ukuthi kungani, “i- [Oats] yenzelwe me. Ngasetha isitudiyo lapho engingasebenza khona ezintweni engifuna ukusebenza ngazo ngendlela engifuna ukwenza ngayo. ”

UBlomkamp uthi iqembu lakhe liqongele inqwaba yemali futhi kuze kube manje usekhiphe amafilimu amane akwa-YouTube, I-Zygote owesithathu ozodedelwa. I-Rakka futhi I-Firebase ezokuqala nezesibili ngokulandelana.

“Baqedile ncamashi indlela engiyifunayo; Angiphenduli muntu, "uyachaza" Sakha isitudiyo ukuze sibasebenzise. Uma ekugcineni sikala, futhi singathola indlela yokwenza imali ngalokhu. Ngaleso sikhathi, sizobheka imibono ezongena enkampanini bese sibheka ukuthi sifuna yini ukuba isitudiyo esijwayelekile futhi sisebenze nemibono yabanye abantu. ”

I-OATS yaqala ukusebenza cishe eminyakeni emibili eyedlule ngemuva kokukhishwa kwefilimu yakhe eyayideleleke ngokweqile I-CHAPPiE. Uthi kwathatha isikhathi eside ukwakha ingqalasizinda. Khonamanjalo, bekufanele futhi athole ukuthi angakuqhuba kanjani konke.

Kepha lesi yisikhala sakhe, isikhathi sakhe futhi lena yimibono yakhe. Akunandaba noma yiziphi izivimbamgwaqo angahlangabezana nazo njengesiqalo, akukho lapho angathanda ukuba khona.

"Uma usebenza njengomqondisi wamafilimu, awuyena umculi," esho. “Uyabona kubantu abanemali. Futhi abantu abanemali bazothonya ubuciko obenzayo. Angifuni ukusebenza kuleyo ndawo. Ngifuna ukusebenza endaweni lapho ngilawula khona engikwenzayo. Kunzima ukukwenza lokho ngoba kudinga imali. ”

Ababukeli nabalandeli abanjengathi yibona abazoba yisinqumo esinqumayo sokuthi uBlomkamp usuka kuphi lapha. Impumelelo yezikhindi ezifana I-Zygote Izonquma ukuthi i-Oats izobaphathela kuphi abasebenzi bayo, lokho kungasho ukuthi ukwenza ambalwa abe ngamafilimu amakhulu.

Uma lokho kuyimpumelelo u-Oats uzokwakha amafilimu amafushane, ubabiza ngokuthi "ama-incubator ukuthola eminye imibono." Futhi hhayi eyakhe kuphela.

Uthi uBlomkamp, ​​“Nginentshisekelo yokuthi ngibe ngumuntu onobuciko ovunyelwe ukwenza engifuna ukukwenza. Nokugqashula amaketanga okuthi le nqubo ivame ukuhamba kanjani. ”

Uthi inqubo ejwayelekile yokukhiqiza yaseHollywood ayisebenzi kahle, kepha ukuvumela abantu ukuthi babe nenkululeko ethile ekugcineni kuvuna inzuzo enkulu kakhulu.

“Ngakho-ke umuntu ngamunye, emnyangweni ngamunye lapha ngokweqile unobuhlakani obungaphezu kwalobo abebengaba yibo ngoba sonke siyakwazi ukuxhumana, asenzi izinqumo ngokususelwa kwimali esivele sixhumana ngayo ngokushesha futhi sithumela imininingwane emuva naphambili futhi sibona okubukeka kangcono. Izinqumo empeleni zisuselwa kunoma yini esebenzayo kunokuphikisana nezinqumo zezimali. ”

Ngambuza ngokuthola umlingisi owaziwayo njengoDakota Fanning Zygote. Ngangizibuza ukuthi ngabe kokuthola igama elikhulu izinkanyezi kumabhayisikobho akhe kwakuyimfuneko, mhlawumbe ukuyinika ukugcizelela okwengeziwe ngomlomo.

Ungikhuze ngokushesha, "Asikho isidingo," esho. “Kunjengokuthi uma ukhokhela okuthile ephaketheni lakho, ivelaphi le mfuneko?”

Uke waqondisa uDakota phambilini futhi wathandana nomsebenzi wakhe, “Ngingumlandeli wakhe omkhulu. Ngakho-ke ngicabanga ukuthi ngingathanda ukusebenza naye ngokwengeziwe futhi ukumfaka kulesi siqephu kufana nethemba lokuthi ukuqala nje kokusebenza naye ngokwengeziwe. ”

Kukhona okunye angathanda ukulandela ngakho futhi yilolo hlobo olwesabekayo. UNeill uthi kungenye yezindlela azithandayo futhi wayengeke akhathazeke ngokwaziwa njengomqondisi ozenzayo.

Bengifuna ukuthatha impikiswano kusuka kuma-cinephiles okungenzeka abe nencazelo engacacile yokuthi yini ehlukanisa ukwethuka kwezinganekwane zesayensi. Noma noma ngabe lokhu kukhethekile kukodwa. Uthi ifilimu yakhe yokuqala enkulu ibingenazo izinto eziningi ezesabekayo, kepha bezikhona.

"Amanye amafilimu engiwathanda kakhulu yi-science fiction-horror," echaza. “Ngisho ngokusobala ngithanda i- Alien amafilimu kukhona. Futhi uyazi, amafilimu engiwenzile esikhathini esedlule - amafilimu amakhulu, empeleni, ngicabanga kuphela izindaba eziqanjiwe zesayensi. Ngiyacabanga Isizinda se-9 inezici ezimbalwa ze-horror yesayensi eqanjiwe. Kepha empeleni kuyisayensi. ”

Amandla amakhulu obuhlakani kanye nokuhlaziya komphakathi kwamafilimu akhe aqanjiwe esayensi anezincazelo ezithile ezijulile zokufanekisa. Ikakhulukazi ama-movie akhe athinta imvelo yomuntu, ukuzidela nokucindezelwa.

Ngibuze ukuthi ngabe ukucubungula kwe-cerebral kuyizisulu zalolo hlobo noma ngabe izindaba zezindaba zivimbela ukuhlola kwazo. Uthi banedumela elikhishwa inyumbazane, yebo, kodwa ngokuya ngendlela umuntu asebenza ngayo bangashukumisa ngendlela efanayo.

"Ngicabanga ukuthi bonke bayalingana - sengathi uma ubheka ama-Academy Awards - ngicabanga ukuthi ukwethuka kanye nezindaba eziqanjiwe zesayensi zombili zehliselwe emuva ngokulingana ekamelweni," kusho yena. “Akuwona uhlobo lwabantu abacabanga ukuthi lungamabhayisikobho aphezulu. Futhi ngicabanga ukuthi phakathi kwabo bobabili uphakeme kakhulu, izingcezu zobuchopho futhi uthanda lokho abantu abangakucabanga nge-B-grade. Ngicabanga ukuthi ubukhulu bezindaba eziqanjiwe zesayensi nokwesabeka kufana ncamashi. ”

Unikeza izibonelo ze Alien futhi Blade Runner njengama-sampling ama-crossovers, kodwa futhi uyagcizelela ngokungamakwa njengomculi othile osebenza kuphela ngaphakathi kohlobo olulodwa noma i-trope.

“Iqiniso lokuthi ngisebenza eqoqweni lamavidiyo we-YouTube empeleni lihlanya ngokwengqondo njengoba kungenzeka abanye abaqondisi bakhathazeke. Kepha njengokuthi, anginandaba ngempela, ”Uyanezela,“ Kungukuthi yini ezwakala iphoqelela ngobuhlakani, futhi ngingathanda ukuba ngumuntu owaziwa njengomuntu osebenza ngokuthuthumela ngoba amanye amafilimu engiwathanda kakhulu akuwo lolo hlobo. ”

Futhi kulabo abazibuza ukuthi ucabangani zakamuva Alien prequel, kuzofanela ulinde. Kwakunamahemuhemu okuthi uzoqondisa I-Alien 5. Kepha lezo zinhlelo zibukeka zihambe ngendlela.

“Angikayiboni. Ngokusobala ngifana nomlandeli omkhulu we Alien - njengokukhulu -kodwa angikakuboni Isivumelwano okwamanje. ”

Kepha leyo yinto enhle ngombono walo mbhali. Lokhu kumnika isikhathi esithe xaxa sokwakha ama-Oats Studios, nokwakha lawa mafilimu amancane, kodwa anamandla amakhulu afana ne- I-Zygote Mahhala.

Lezi yizindaba ezimnandi kithi sonke esijabule ukubona lokho asibekele khona uhlobo olwesabekayo. Futhi okujabulisa kakhulu ukuthi bangaba izithombe zobude obugcwele ngenxa ye-Oats, ngoba akafuni kuphela yenza izikhindi.

“Yicabange njengesitudiyo esincane, esincane seNeill Blomkamp esenzelwe ukwenza imibono enginayo.”
