“Petrified ! Songs have always been a nightmare for me,” writes big B.
The actor writes about filming for a climax song for his upcoming film Aladdin. Since the film involves a whole lot of special effects, Bachchan uses his blog to tell his fans all about how this is achieved.
“The story is contemporary but set in a fantasy world of make belief. The one feature that you do notice in both the stills is the green backdrop with little red marks on them. These are where digitally images will be filled in later. Green backdrops are used when greater depth or volume is required and when they cannot be physically built. So a minimal construction is set up, actors act around it and imagine that there is a lot more to it.
There are photographs too of another sequence - the genie atop a snow mountain. There is a lot of blue that surrounds the image. This is all cloth where digitally snowy peaks and a large mountain will be filled in. And you would never know the difference. I mean now you would, because you have been told of it, but in general it is seldom noticed,” explains the actor.
