Who is a child did not open his mouth in the movie with a terrible accident and the pursuit of the protagonist? Our idols on the screen do extraordinary things, after which they left only a couple of scratches - a realism achieved by the labor of many people. Hero of the interviews, stunt Viktor Ivanov, may be called the director. He shared with us a story about a difficult, but heroic work of stuntmen. - How did you get into the ranks of stunt? - The 70-year one of my older friend who worked in film, called me with a friend to yourself. Before that I did not have a profession stuntman, but he had some sports training. Stunt art captivated me because it was necessary to constantly invent how to carry out a trick to use all the ideas that come to mind. While there was no details for specific tricks in each project must come up with something different, because our capabilities were closely associated with a limited budget. Ideas can be anything, but many of them fall away if, for execution of the chase will give two decommissioned "zhigulenka. Fast enough, I gained experience, and in 74-year became stunt. Supervised conduct of the work, thought, as it is done. While the stunt work did not bring much money, so I arranged with fellow group with which we went on tour with his show. Act accounted for the terrible cars that we isolated the local authorities, and they had to be divided to two hours to recover for the next performance. It became for us a good school - on the set of cars could turn two or three times a year, and there we were doing it more often. Explosions, we do ourselves, although the shooting there are special people, pyrotechnics. On our side it was pretty dangerous stunt - was used for this powder and all sorts of explosives. - What is your automotive experience? - Drive the car I started with 12 years of age, and the rights received in 1972, when he reached adulthood. Before fell into the ranks of stunt men, was fond of motorsport - highway-ring races. To prepare the machine to trick you can, and with their hands, but we use the services of acquaintances guys in garages, they have become accustomed to certain works, understand what is required of them. Sometimes you have to piece tinkering instances some equipment for the machine to perform the trick. Unfortunately, after that, they lie somewhere and rust because we have no museums kaskaderstva. - You only do car stunts? - I performed all the stunts that are in the arsenal of the stuntmen, - burning, falling from heights, horse riding, explosions and gunfire. But for the past 15 years, I just got carried away car stunts, they are closer to me and easier. In the environment of the stuntmen is considered an elite area, as the work with the cars more time-consuming, and the organization - more costly. To avtotryuki not make a dent in the budget of the movie, they should carefully consider and plan execution. Before buying a car and smash it into the end of the movie was an event, but now producers have become more willing to accommodate our requests, are starting to buy a decent car - they understand that the quality of tricks added to their rent. For example, the data were published about the film "The Bourne Supremacy" - it turned out that the pursuit of this film, I worked on, added rental $ 45 million. - Tell me about your work in film. - Last time, I basically come up and shoot stunts, this director's work. My work in the American film "The Gift", which will be released on screens in the autumn, was the full responsibility for avtopogonyu. The entire project, they were filmed in Bulgaria, and the pursuit should have been taken in Moscow. They filmed the beginning and end of the movie, and I had to work with these machines that they gave me, and with actors who have never worked with avtotryukami. Now go home to continue shooting the movie "Love-carrot" in its main machine - the van, but the salt of my work consisted in selecting a style chase, as there is a comedy plot. I have worked over the last two parts of the movie about an agent Borne, coming soon on the new film "Indigo," where I worked under the guidance of Martin, my son - he is also a stuntman. Soon we'll go with him to work for the next James Bond film in Italy, where he will shoot a big chase. My track record has about 180 feature films and film works. - Recently, the premiere of the movie "Streetracers ... - Our stunts in "Streetracers" will be nominated for the "Taurus" in the next year. Work on this film, we walked away from the actors, we met only two or three times - we have finished his own stunts, but they approached the wreckage, and act out their scenes. Our crew had their own equipment. Travel by Ferrari, driven by sitting Lesch Chadov, shot in the pavilion, he also starred in the race along the waterfront behind the wheel of the Victory. In other places it dubbed my son Martin (he dubbed Matt Damon in the Bourne movies). Martin has also served a six coup jeep, which later burned down. To perform this trick, we have built a pneumatic gun, with which the machine flew into the air. It is used to flip the Nissan one of the heroes. The machine made a turnover of 4.5, but in the final version, it just took off. As the crowd in "Streetracers" involved local fans of speed, but serious tricks they do, just spinning around its axis in place. For filming in the city, we blocked the traffic on the streets, it was one of the reasons why the film was shot in St. Petersburg - Moscow streets is difficult to block at any time of day. A race to win, where Lesch Chadov chases a Porsche, filmed at night, three minutes before sundown. But mostly we spent shooting at night - no problems with the setting sun, and the race-then the plot of the night - we had 56 night shifts. This limits the possibilities of photography - the machine can be removed only at the illuminated areas. Wagon in this movie, we broke through radio. It is a pity that at the site near St. Petersburg, where we worked, there was no steep cliffs, so we had to bury her in a rather small slope. The driver of the truck Jack himself participated in the filming tricks, it is to adjust to our pace and demands, and he sat behind the wheel. Acuity he has added a permanent melteshenie cars under the wheels, but he coped well with its task. When were the final shots of the truck, we have built specifically for this machine electrical control wheel and pedals, which are controlled by remote control. But since there was a manual transmission, I had to disperse the wagon to 70 mph, then climb to another machine, and then she ran a joystick. - Over the past few years has changed the level of tricks in Russia compared with Hollywood? - It makes no sense to compare the film industry in Hollywood and in Russia, all this can be seen on the screen. Of course, the domestic film develops, the cost of shooting increase, purchased new equipment, but it is too early to talk about a major industry. I worked in Hollywood for 15 years. In America, the budget for the film exceeds our a few times, they have faked shooting and technical support - few competently perform the trick, half of the success depends on the shooting. A car shooting pretty dynamic, they require a serious approach. Our producers have begun to understand it, in the team a lot of young guys who think, how to shoot, but as it is not necessary - all that is necessary in order to chase on the screen or flip looked spectacular. For several projects I'm doing with the operator Ilya Boiko, and, in my opinion, he is the best in this genre. Although I live in Russia with his family, I am still drawn to the well-established projects. In Hollywood, a position - coordinator of gaming machines. This is a special person who selects the machines to suit our requirements, customize them to work, is responsible for them during filming, be sure to have always been car-doubles, the sequence of tracks (if the machine somewhere hesitated, then in future there should be a dent on twins). In Russia there is no such office, usually I work with have already bought cars, which sometimes do not run away in the creative plan. The Americans have established cooperation with automakers, for example, for the filming of "The Bourne Ultimatum" identified six Volkswagen Tuareg, each machine in this movie was for 8-10 twins. While producers have to apply to at least six months before filming began, and some require that the machines were in the frame just their brand. Yet they read the script and evaluate whether the story will not hurt their image. - Kaskaderstvo - a profession? How do you prepare the cars and stunts? - Injury was significantly less, since there are many protective equipment. Preparation of the machine is held at a professional level, for each trick it is different - sometimes do not record stunt (only lap belts) so that he could lie down or evade, and for coups use six-point seat belts, special chairs, straps, helmet and lock for the neck , protection of feet and hands, fireproof overalls. Arc must be done so that they not only defended the stunt, but was visible damage to the car. Framework needs to be done so that the car was to crush, sometimes doing "cage" for the driver - to prepare the machine takes about three days. Chase for the "Bourne Supremacy" took off a month in Moscow and a month in Berlin, and chase for "The Bourne Ultimatum" - one month, but were prepared her for six months. In Russia, however, if the trick is to identify four of the day, it's a good thing. For filming stunts in Italy for the next James Bond training will last four weeks, and shooting - six weeks. - What trick do you most remember? - I remember one of the trouble of cheating - in the movie "The Holy cargo in Prague, I had to jump on the Volga River with the 18-meter bridge. The difficulty was that the shooting took place on the existing bridge, where we were not able to block traffic because of the trams, so the work must be done quickly. I had to call in on a trampoline, already sitting on the step, but as soon as the car take off and begin to fall, I had to jump into the water, simultaneously with the Volga. Actor, which I dubbed, was a rather large, the role he was wearing a heavy overcoat, because of which I was uncomfortable to jump, and I knocked his shoulder at splashdown.
