Chapter 500 The King Of The Set!

Khalifa took a big gulp of air nervously and tried his best to calm his nerves while trying to envision the feeling of the character in the script.

He looked at the director and all those on set and repeatedly told himself that they didn't exist.

That's right!

In his mind.... he was now Merlin, who was currently heading towards Camelot.

Right now, they are about to film the beginning part, which was Merlin basically walking along a forest trail toward Camelot.

And while he walked, a dragon (narrator) had to talk over the scene.

For this part, for all dragon scenes in this TV series.... one would only hear the dragon, and see a glimpse of its body, like its tail and so on.

But they would never see the full-body, as Baymard didn't have the technology to make it seem that the dragon's mouth was moving on its own yet.

In short, the plan was to make fake dragon parts and have people skate them if the dragon's voice was angry or not.

In short, even if some part of the dragon's face had to be shown.... it would only be its eyes.

There would be scenes where its eyes would glow in the dark and so on.

Anyway, Khalifa was currently dressed in an attire befitting this world's era.... and also had a peasant sac as his backpack.

His hair was also trimmed slightly and cut to look like the character he was trying to depict.

.

"Is the recorder ready?"

"Yes, director..... we have adjusted the volumes from the scene."

"Great!

When the scene begins, play both tapes immediately!"

"Yes, director!"

As it stood right now, there weren't any editing tools to add music or whatnot into the movies.... so all they could do is record whatever they wanted, and then play it alongside the scenes.

So they had already recorded the music in one tape and had also recorded the dragon's voice in another.

This is where those controlling the Volume had to be smart.

They had to know when to make the switch up the music from different recorders, for climaxes, big reveals, and so on.

Each scene had speakers hidden all over the place, so as to let the camera and microphones pick up everything.

Landon had even had them record all sorts of sounds as well.

Like the sounds of horse hooves running about, or even the sounds of someone eating something crunchy, stepping on a twig....as well as the sounds of splashing water.

.

As for how they could cut and place scenes together, one should know that back on earth.... before computerized editing systems were born, the initial editing was done by physically cutting and pasting pieces together neatly and carefully using a splicer and threader using a special flatbed machine.

Physical editing was what they would use to place all the pieces of films together.

In short, he had almost every method that he had come up with..... was what was used by film crews back in the days.

"Places everyone!.... places!" The director yelled out.

This was his first time directing, so he too was extremely nervous as well.

After all, they would show their finished products to Landon at the end of each week.

So how could he not be

"Merlin Scene 1 take 1"

"Action!"

The entire place fell into deep silence, and soon Khalifa began walking down the trail that the fake forest trail that he was supposed to pass through in the script.

And as he walked, the Camera strategically followed him.... and the voice of the dragon could be heard over him, as well as the low-tuned sounds of music playing in the background.

Low recorded music of violins playing.... as well as the Low sounds of trees rustling and birds chirping, could be resounding around the set.

Khalifa walked forward, looking left and right.... while trying to remember the feeling of one leaving home for the first time.

Somehow, listening to the dragon's narrator voice.... made him feel like he was actually Merlin.

.

"No young man... no matter how great.... can know his destiny.

He cannot glimpse his part in the great story that is about to unfold.

Like everyone, he must live and learn.

And so it will be..... for the young warlock arriving at the gates of Camelot.

A boy..... that will in time, father a legend.

His name..... Merlin!"

After the dragon spoke, the music increased even more, making everyone on set want to see what will happen next.

Was this what was called a climax?

"Cut!"

Once the director had called for the scene to end, everyone couldn't help but clap loudly.... as they had really felt like they too were on a journey to Camelot alongside the young Warlock.

"Excellent!"

"Good Job young Warlock!"

"Oh my God!..... I was really shocked when the music picked up out of nowhere."

"I know right?

My heart is still beating fast from excitement alone."

"Damn it was good!"

'Clap! Clap! Clap! Clap! Clap! Clap! Clap! Clap!'

Watching how the scene unfolded before their very eyes, of course they felt immensely proud of their hard work so far.

Especially those controlling the music, the lighting and so on.

In their minds, the whole scene was perfect.

Even those acting in the following scenes to come were also amazed as well.

They were extremely thrilled and decided to work hard and make their own scenes come to life as well.

In their opinion, Khalifa truly resembled the person in the script.

In short, it was perfect.

But how could it be so easy?

"Khalifa, when passing through this particular region on set, your facial expression looked grim for a split second.

So take note of that.

Also, can I get hair \u0026 makeup to touch him up a bit?

As for those in charge of lighting, try not to flash it directly into Khalifa's eyes.

We will run the scene again from the top!"

.

And so just like that, all over the studio's streets, buildings, homes and even fake caves and forests..... one would find several filming crews doing their best as well.

Some filming crews like those filming horror scenes, were so frightened by the spooky sounds and acting from the characters, that they soon began to shiver from it all.

While others tried to hold back their laughter, as they were filming comedic scenes instead.

But all in all, these people on set had soon realized that no matter how good it looked in their eyes... a scene could only pass as watchable if the king of the set said so.

Long story short, Mr. Director was the king of the set.

Mr. Director, please spare us.
