Today, the saga of Stephenie Meyer’s novels has fans all over the world. The film adaptations, with a total budget of over $330 million, played a significant role in its popularity. This allowed the creators to use many modern techniques thanks to which they could faithfully show the story of Bella and Edward.
The pregnancy was devastating for her character’s body. Did Stewart have to undergo a metamorphosis?
In the first part of “Breaking Dawn”, the fate of the main characters unexpectedly changed course. Bella () married the vampire, Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson), and soon after, during their honeymoon, she found out that she was pregnant. However, she did not expect that the vampire-human hybrid would have such a radical impact on her life and health. She started losing weight rapidly and her complexion turned gray. Not only did she feel bad, she looked bad too. At one point she was almost fighting for every single day. However, she wanted to complete the pregnancy, which ultimately, thanks to her great dedication, she succeeded.
Many wondered how the actress who played this role, Kristen Stewart, managed to lose such drastic weight in a relatively short time. In the remaining scenes in this film, he looks completely normal. It turns out that the creators wanted to create just such an impression. “We wanted to leave the audience with a question mark as to how we did it,” director Bill Condon. The actress did not have to undergo such a serious metamorphosis, which would undoubtedly affect her health and well-being. Especially since the scenes were shot in a completely different order than we saw them in the film. So how did Bella’s pregnancy episodes come about? You will be surprised.
This is what the behind-the-scenes of the first part of “Breaking Dawn” looked like. Fans of the saga are still in shock
The development of technology has been improving the film industry for many years, giving creators new, previously unknown opportunities. Their use, however, requires considerable financial outlays, which the creators did not have to worry about – as much as USD 127 million was allocated for the first part of “Breaking Dawn”. In the scenes where Kristen Stewart is going out, appropriate makeup obviously played a huge role, but not only that. – We would have to stop production for a few months for me to lose or regain weight. So I said, “well, I hope you can handle it well, because I can’t do it” – actress.
However, the greatest magic will happen only at the post-production stage. It was then that such a shocking and at the same time credible effect was created using computer programs. Additionally, in some shots a puppet was used, based on Stewart’s posture and appearance. Although it was a long and arduous process, it paid off because the results exceeded the viewers’ wildest expectations. Many even claim that Stewart actually looked as if she was about to die in these scenes.
Technically, the amount of work they put into this part is admirable. The whole process is fascinating. I never thought it would all take so much work
This is crazy! They did an amazing job
This puppet is truly creepy and weird, but hellishly perfect and authentic!
