| And as an experiment, because I dauntingly create a task for myself of recreating a Saturn V launch for this particular movie, because I put it out there, |

| They were -- had camera moves on them. |
火箭——上面是有摄像机在移动的 |

其实事情是这样的,我所做出来的 和他记忆中的是截然不同的 |

所以,你们所反应出来的情感,或者你们所看到的 都和Jim拍出来的片段一样,有着都有同样的感觉 同样令人难忘,所以我觉得我们的大脑蛮有意思的 |

穿梭前进,所以我们想营造一种 让人觉得这是他平凡的日常生活的感觉来 所以一镜到底这个想法就变得很重要了 当然,拍摄成3D |
| it's a huge camera that's hanging off of a giant stick, so to recreate a steadycam shot was the task, and make it feel kind of like what the reaction you got when you saw the "Goodfellas" shot. |

| So what you're now going to see is how we actually did it. |

事实上是有5个分镜,分5次来拍 有两个不同的男孩 |

或者其他类似的拍摄手法,基本上 分为五个场景,两个不同的男孩,不同的时间 这全部要让人感觉是一镜到底的 我觉得很棒的一点是 这算得上我参与过最受好评的镜头了 |
| and, you know, I was kind of proud of it when I was done, which is, you should never really be proud of stuff, I guess. |
嘿嘿,在完工的时候我还挺自豪的 我觉得吧,还是不要自豪过头变骄傲了 |
| So I was kind of proud of it, and I went to a friend of mine, and said, "You know, this is, you know, kind of the best-reviewed shot I've ever worked on. |
