1
00:00:04,527 --> 00:00:08,042
Here's ''Lost City'' parts one and two.

2
00:00:08,407 --> 00:00:09,556
lt's cute.

3
00:00:18,687 --> 00:00:21,724
Moviemaking 101 . We'll be right back.

4
00:00:24,447 --> 00:00:26,438
What would you like to know today?

5
00:00:34,287 --> 00:00:38,280
Just before we shoot the show,
we have to take everybody out

6
00:00:38,367 --> 00:00:43,236
and show them what's in my brain and
the script and what we're gonna do with it.

7
00:00:43,327 --> 00:00:47,798
- What are you expecting out of this trip?
- A deeper understanding of your vision.

8
00:00:47,887 --> 00:00:49,878
Oh, you sarcastic...

9
00:00:52,607 --> 00:00:56,964
Jim's the director of photography. What
are you expecting to get out of this trip?

10
00:00:57,047 --> 00:01:00,039
- Lattice work.
- Lattice work. Fabulous.

11
00:01:00,127 --> 00:01:02,846
Here we go. We're at O'Neill's house.

12
00:01:02,927 --> 00:01:05,725
This is always fun
going into somebody's house.

13
00:01:05,807 --> 00:01:09,880
Everybody piles in,
stands around and then we leave,

14
00:01:09,967 --> 00:01:12,845
cos all the decisions
have already been made.

15
00:01:12,927 --> 00:01:15,282
- Did Lynn call you?
- Yes, she did.

16
00:01:15,367 --> 00:01:19,121
l'm gonna see from here down to here
with the front door.

17
00:01:19,207 --> 00:01:23,325
Some tchotchkes on here, too.
Venetians in that window.

18
00:01:23,407 --> 00:01:26,160
The telescope will go out here
on the deck.

19
00:01:26,247 --> 00:01:27,760
That's good.

20
00:01:29,287 --> 00:01:32,040
- Nice legs.
- They're directing shoes.

21
00:01:34,487 --> 00:01:38,196
The art department have a model
of the set for me to look at.

22
00:01:38,287 --> 00:01:41,962
lt makes it way easier if l've got
a model to look at. Here it is.

23
00:01:42,047 --> 00:01:45,881
This helps me to block out
what l'm gonna do,

24
00:01:45,967 --> 00:01:48,640
and it helps everybody to visualise the set,

25
00:01:48,727 --> 00:01:52,481
and helps the director of photography
figure out the lighting.

26
00:01:52,567 --> 00:01:54,762
lt's way easier to use than drawings.

27
00:01:54,847 --> 00:01:59,716
We started with a computer model. All
these pieces were built in virtual reality.

28
00:01:59,807 --> 00:02:03,880
Then l printed out the pieces
from the computer model on paper.

29
00:02:03,967 --> 00:02:07,198
- ls that good?
- l love that.

30
00:02:07,287 --> 00:02:10,597
With a model this detailed,
it's very easy for me to block.

31
00:02:10,687 --> 00:02:14,999
l may turn the chair away from the
borehole, which would be really cool.

32
00:02:15,087 --> 00:02:18,716
All the stuff's going on behind O'Neill then.

33
00:02:19,527 --> 00:02:24,555
l'm in the studio to show you what
it looks like before we put the set in it.

34
00:02:24,647 --> 00:02:28,720
You've seen the model and now you get
to see the set as it's being put together.

35
00:02:28,807 --> 00:02:34,439
The set's going in over here.
The ice cave will be over in here.

36
00:02:34,527 --> 00:02:37,200
This area here will be the borehole.

37
00:02:37,287 --> 00:02:41,326
This area right here is the actual ice room.

38
00:02:41,407 --> 00:02:45,525
This is the studio we shot ''Solitudes'' in,
the studio we refrigerated.

39
00:02:45,607 --> 00:02:49,043
ln fact, l'm gonna show you the exact spot

40
00:02:49,127 --> 00:02:53,598
where Jack and Sam were huddled just
before they thought they were gonna die.

41
00:02:53,687 --> 00:02:56,884
That's it right there.

42
00:03:00,567 --> 00:03:03,923
OK, you're not gonna believe
what this thing looks like now.

43
00:03:04,007 --> 00:03:07,044
This is the set for the ice cave
and the lava cave.

44
00:03:07,127 --> 00:03:09,243
This is where the chair'll be placed.

45
00:03:09,327 --> 00:03:12,205
lt's the same for both the ice cave
and the lava cave.

46
00:03:12,287 --> 00:03:16,280
This is all tin foil.
This is what's gonna make the ice.

47
00:03:16,367 --> 00:03:22,078
This light works like a black light,
so the entire set will be outlined like this.

48
00:03:22,167 --> 00:03:25,045
lt's painted with a UV paint called Wildfire.

49
00:03:25,127 --> 00:03:28,278
lcicles are lances for really big jousters.

50
00:03:28,367 --> 00:03:30,437
Those are the icicles.

51
00:03:30,527 --> 00:03:34,486
There's no rules in an icicle fight.
l need some fake icicles.

52
00:03:34,567 --> 00:03:36,398
We need giant ones.

53
00:03:36,487 --> 00:03:38,796
Forced perspective.
They're gonna be huge.

54
00:03:38,887 --> 00:03:41,117
How huge is that?

55
00:03:41,207 --> 00:03:46,122
lt's not huge. This is huge.
Look at that. That's huge.

56
00:03:46,207 --> 00:03:48,402
The next scene is this.

57
00:03:48,487 --> 00:03:51,877
Start back here. Steadicam across here.
We open this up.

58
00:03:51,967 --> 00:03:57,280
First time we see the room will be here
on O'Neill, and then open it up like that.

59
00:03:57,367 --> 00:04:01,565
Now let's see how much of the day
we take up getting into this room.

60
00:04:03,287 --> 00:04:08,566
l told you. Was l lying?
lt turns into a La-Z-Boy.

61
00:04:08,647 --> 00:04:13,243
By lunch it won't be here on set any more.
lt'll be in his room.

62
00:04:13,327 --> 00:04:17,206
On Stargate we normally use one,
maybe two cameras to film a scene,

63
00:04:17,287 --> 00:04:19,847
but when we get behind,
this is what happens.

64
00:04:19,927 --> 00:04:23,806
Four cameras shooting a scene
that's three pages long.

65
00:04:23,887 --> 00:04:27,766
The person that suffers the most
is Jim Menard, director of photography.

66
00:04:27,847 --> 00:04:31,283
The viewer's the one that suffers.

67
00:04:31,367 --> 00:04:34,120
This is where everybody
watches all four cameras.

68
00:04:34,207 --> 00:04:39,486
This is not simply a director,
but a true Regisseur.

69
00:04:39,927 --> 00:04:44,796
- He's talking about Andy Mikita there.
- Yes! A second Regisseur.

70
00:04:44,887 --> 00:04:47,355
- You guys tired? You can't be tired.
- No.

71
00:04:47,447 --> 00:04:50,519
You've been at it for only 1 4 hours now,
and you're tired?

72
00:04:50,607 --> 00:04:51,835
No.

73
00:04:51,927 --> 00:04:54,964
Hell, no. lt's nothing.

74
00:04:55,047 --> 00:04:58,835
l just weep when l'm tired.
Everything makes me cry when l'm tired.

75
00:04:58,927 --> 00:05:02,363
Amanda's tired because
next week she has to direct her episode,

76
00:05:02,447 --> 00:05:04,881
and we haven't given her any time to prep.

77
00:05:04,967 --> 00:05:08,926
How true, my friend.
But you know what? l'm gonna kick ass.

78
00:05:09,007 --> 00:05:14,001
l'm gonna knock people's socks off.
Knock their blocks off.

79
00:05:15,367 --> 00:05:18,916
lt's gonna be amazing. She's been doing
a lot of prep on her own time.

80
00:05:19,007 --> 00:05:22,079
lf l had to do that,
l wouldn't be directing right now,

81
00:05:22,167 --> 00:05:25,921
because the stuff l'd turn in would be
crap, but she's gonna do a great job.

82
00:05:26,007 --> 00:05:29,204
We're with supervising producer
Damian Kindler.

83
00:05:29,287 --> 00:05:31,164
There's no red light.

84
00:05:31,247 --> 00:05:36,446
- Kindler's on set. Can we get rid of him?
- l wanna get Kindler and mezuzah.

85
00:05:36,527 --> 00:05:41,442
He's concerned that there's no mezuzah
here on the... ls it the left or the right side?

86
00:05:41,527 --> 00:05:43,836
Nobody understands that joke.

87
00:05:43,927 --> 00:05:50,241
21 . The lens of choice. A fabulous lens
for a 35mm television show, actually.

88
00:05:50,327 --> 00:05:55,003
Especially one that's shot in 16 x 9 that
only people watching the DVD get to see.

89
00:05:55,087 --> 00:05:59,922
We start back here,
and we start dialling the gate.

90
00:06:00,807 --> 00:06:05,403
And the gate starts to spin,
the cross happens...

91
00:06:05,487 --> 00:06:09,082
- We're into it here. Hello, Peter.
- Good morning.

92
00:06:09,167 --> 00:06:13,240
- Finally, Peter has lines after seven years.
- Whoo-hoo!

93
00:06:13,327 --> 00:06:16,922
Unauthorised offworld activation.

94
00:06:19,607 --> 00:06:22,724
That was a nuke. Or worse.

95
00:06:22,807 --> 00:06:26,686
- l'm just talking to the general.
- This man is a true leader of men.

96
00:06:26,767 --> 00:06:29,122
- l know. He's from Texas.
- Are you from Texas?

97
00:06:29,207 --> 00:06:32,995
- l am from Texas.
- You don't mess with Texans.

98
00:06:33,087 --> 00:06:37,285
We've got the real general here.
Chief of the Air Force.

99
00:06:37,367 --> 00:06:40,837
- Hey, look, there's Anubis.
- The galactic psychopath.

100
00:06:40,927 --> 00:06:44,158
Could l just explain to everybody
what's gonna happen?

101
00:06:44,247 --> 00:06:48,206
The lights going down is your indication
to spin and to look around.

102
00:06:48,287 --> 00:06:50,278
Then l'm gonna bring in Anubis.

103
00:06:50,367 --> 00:06:52,517
He appears, we spin around
and look at him,

104
00:06:52,607 --> 00:06:56,316
and then the secret-service guys
are all gonna pour in the sides.

105
00:06:56,407 --> 00:06:59,956
These two gentlemen
are gonna be firing rounds.

106
00:07:00,047 --> 00:07:02,163
They're using their own guns.

107
00:07:02,247 --> 00:07:04,602
These are two real secret-service guys.

108
00:07:04,687 --> 00:07:06,882
These guys are shooting. Don't flinch.

109
00:07:06,967 --> 00:07:12,041
Two of your own guys are gonna come in
and they're gonna start shooting at him.

110
00:07:12,127 --> 00:07:15,597
At the same time
this picture is gonna go up.

111
00:07:15,687 --> 00:07:18,759
l have to have a crane.
l don't think l can do it without a crane.

112
00:07:18,847 --> 00:07:21,042
The move won't work
without a technocrane.

113
00:07:21,127 --> 00:07:23,516
We just lost the technocrane.

114
00:07:23,607 --> 00:07:26,041
- What?
- lt's broken.

115
00:07:26,127 --> 00:07:30,643
When the shotguns start in there, is that
when we blow the picture? Thank you.

116
00:07:32,367 --> 00:07:36,155
Oh, man. We only have two paintings.
This has to work.

117
00:07:36,247 --> 00:07:40,240
And camera... action!

118
00:07:40,327 --> 00:07:42,795
Why not a city or two?
Just to prove his point.

119
00:07:48,087 --> 00:07:50,760
The secret-service guys
start shooting at him.

120
00:07:53,727 --> 00:07:55,399
He sticks his hand out.

121
00:07:55,487 --> 00:07:57,284
You are the leader of this world.

122
00:07:57,367 --> 00:08:00,996
Henry Hayes.
President of the United States of America.

123
00:08:01,087 --> 00:08:04,557
He's not gonna actually touch him.
He's just going to shake his hand.

124
00:08:04,647 --> 00:08:07,445
You bring destruction upon yourselves.

125
00:08:07,527 --> 00:08:09,643
Never going to happen.

126
00:08:09,727 --> 00:08:12,719
Run away, David. Lights.

127
00:08:14,407 --> 00:08:15,965
And cut!

128
00:08:18,407 --> 00:08:19,635
Too much?

129
00:08:19,727 --> 00:08:23,686
- How was that?
- lt was good. lt didn't suck so badly.

130
00:08:23,847 --> 00:08:27,123
The actors have to be in these suits
all day. l'm gonna wear one, too.

131
00:08:27,207 --> 00:08:29,562
Here we go. And action!

132
00:08:33,167 --> 00:08:37,922
(Daniel) Architecture definitely indicates
this was built by the Ancients.

133
00:08:39,887 --> 00:08:41,878
- And cut.
- Cut!

134
00:08:44,247 --> 00:08:47,045
- That was good. l liked that.
- Put your gloves on.

135
00:08:47,127 --> 00:08:51,245
- He doesn't have any spare gloves.
- You gotta put your rubbers on, too.

136
00:08:51,327 --> 00:08:53,761
(Amanda) Yeah, the rubber boots.

137
00:08:53,847 --> 00:08:56,077
- MacGyver's bathroom.
- MacGyver?

138
00:08:56,167 --> 00:08:59,398
l said MacGyver, didn't l?
O'Neill's bathroom.

139
00:08:59,487 --> 00:09:02,638
Used to be MacGyver's.
He took over the MacGyver house.

140
00:09:02,727 --> 00:09:05,799
- Michael...
- Yes, Martin?

141
00:09:05,887 --> 00:09:09,846
He has the phone and he washes it
cos he's got shaving lotion all over it.

142
00:09:09,927 --> 00:09:14,045
You've created a story in your mind
about what you're gonna be talking about

143
00:09:14,127 --> 00:09:16,687
while you're being washed?

144
00:09:16,767 --> 00:09:19,645
Don't make it too sexually, you know...

145
00:09:20,967 --> 00:09:23,561
Look what he's doing.

146
00:09:24,607 --> 00:09:25,642
Oh.

147
00:09:25,727 --> 00:09:29,163
- lt looks too small, Barry says.
- lt does not. lt looks great.

148
00:09:29,247 --> 00:09:32,796
- Fine. Anybody else?
- This is the cliché shot.

149
00:09:32,887 --> 00:09:36,960
- Alex, what are you doing here?
- We're waiting for Rick.

150
00:09:37,047 --> 00:09:38,924
Then we are going to do a rehearsal.

151
00:09:39,007 --> 00:09:41,282
Look. Steam in a can.

152
00:09:42,767 --> 00:09:46,999
This is hilarious, this scene. l can't stop
laughing. l have to leave the room.

153
00:09:47,087 --> 00:09:51,239
Here we go. And camera, and go, Rick.

154
00:09:53,767 --> 00:09:56,281
(Martin) Ring, ring, ring.

155
00:09:57,487 --> 00:09:59,205
- What?
- Jack.

156
00:09:59,287 --> 00:10:03,963
l've translated the writing on the
colonnade SG-2 discovered on P3X-439.

157
00:10:04,047 --> 00:10:07,403
l think the monument contains
a repository of the Ancients.

158
00:10:07,487 --> 00:10:08,920
Repository?

159
00:10:09,007 --> 00:10:12,204
The thing that grabbed your head,
made you talk crazy.

160
00:10:12,287 --> 00:10:14,278
So we should stay away?

161
00:10:14,367 --> 00:10:18,440
Considering what we know, we should
find a way to access the information.

162
00:10:18,527 --> 00:10:21,997
Sam found that device
on the Tok'ra planet

163
00:10:22,087 --> 00:10:26,444
that has been able to translate
all kinds of different energies into... into...

164
00:10:26,527 --> 00:10:28,518
Should l just go on? lt says ''Go on.''

165
00:10:28,607 --> 00:10:32,520
That was the best work
l've ever seen you do in your whole life.

166
00:10:36,967 --> 00:10:41,597
lf you give me a block of stuff right
in here, it stops me from seeing there.

167
00:10:41,687 --> 00:10:45,999
Then that strafing line - boom, boom,
boom, boom - is not obscured.

168
00:10:46,087 --> 00:10:49,796
Come over here. Second strafing line
comes from approximately that tower.

169
00:10:49,887 --> 00:10:53,197
This is a glider now - boom, boom, boom -
coming up toward us here.

170
00:10:53,287 --> 00:10:58,407
Keep going with the pan. Alkesh coming
in - boom, boom - coming at us here.

171
00:10:58,487 --> 00:11:01,843
And we pick up SG-1
and they jump into the gate here.

172
00:11:01,927 --> 00:11:05,886
We do have an evening scene
which we'll play over at the ruins

173
00:11:05,967 --> 00:11:09,403
with Anubis and Jaffa and his gang.

174
00:11:09,487 --> 00:11:14,845
We don't bring Anubis out in the daytime
cos he looks dumb. That's seriously why.

175
00:11:14,927 --> 00:11:19,159
lf we don't find that Lost City,
we're as good as dead. Or worse.

176
00:11:19,247 --> 00:11:22,364
You can't sell that line.
l defy you to sell that line.

177
00:11:22,447 --> 00:11:26,486
Don't defy me.
l think we could both sell it.

178
00:11:26,567 --> 00:11:28,558
Or worse.

179
00:11:28,647 --> 00:11:30,638
(laughter)

180
00:11:31,647 --> 00:11:35,435
He crosses over here. He's looking left.
He goes here. There he is now.

181
00:11:35,527 --> 00:11:38,166
l jump back here,
reorient a new axis here.

182
00:11:38,247 --> 00:11:42,923
- He's looking left to him still.
- Oh... you!

183
00:11:43,327 --> 00:11:46,717
- Let me do this.
- No, don't do that line.

184
00:11:48,207 --> 00:11:50,038
Suck me.

185
00:11:50,127 --> 00:11:53,563
l won this for the standing broad jump in...

186
00:11:53,647 --> 00:11:56,115
We've wet down the grass.
lt's tinder-dry.

187
00:11:56,207 --> 00:11:58,562
We'll find out
if we burn down Maple Ridge.

188
00:11:58,647 --> 00:12:02,162
Burn it. Burn it all. lt'll be beautiful.

189
00:12:02,247 --> 00:12:06,160
We're gonna have a few explosions,
scare the... out of the grasshoppers,

190
00:12:06,247 --> 00:12:08,238
do a little dialogue and go home.

191
00:12:08,327 --> 00:12:11,842
- l'm hoping for an early wrap, myself.
- (laughter)

192
00:12:11,927 --> 00:12:15,715
There go the firemen to the fire truck.

193
00:12:15,807 --> 00:12:21,040
We've got 13 firemen here today, two
water trucks and a lot of nervous people.

194
00:12:21,127 --> 00:12:25,643
The special effects guys are loading
up the gas bombs. Take a look at this.

195
00:12:27,047 --> 00:12:29,436
This isn't gonna be easy.

196
00:12:29,527 --> 00:12:32,803
For me, it's easy. All l say is ''Action''
and then it goes nuts.

197
00:12:32,887 --> 00:12:36,402
All right, one more time.
Why are we doing this? Why?

198
00:12:37,847 --> 00:12:40,407
- Safety's third today. lt's not first.
- Safety!

199
00:12:40,487 --> 00:12:43,081
First is a good TV show.

200
00:12:43,167 --> 00:12:47,046
- Are you nervous?
- Not nervous. Ray's here.

201
00:12:47,127 --> 00:12:51,325
- Are you nervous for the wildlife here?
- Mostly, yeah. Spotted owl.

202
00:12:51,407 --> 00:12:55,480
The sperm whale.
Can you say... whale?

203
00:12:55,567 --> 00:12:57,364
Let's blow something up.

204
00:12:57,447 --> 00:13:02,680
Everybody listen up! The first set of
booms from me is fake. lt's just for timing.

205
00:13:02,767 --> 00:13:07,716
So the second set when the Alkesh
comes in is the big ones. You'll hear 'em.

206
00:13:08,287 --> 00:13:10,164
And action!

207
00:13:10,247 --> 00:13:14,763
SG-1 , we have incoming!
Boom! Boom! Boom!

208
00:13:19,407 --> 00:13:20,442
Face hugger!

209
00:13:22,167 --> 00:13:23,077
Jack!

210
00:13:23,167 --> 00:13:24,680
OK, more explosions.

211
00:13:24,767 --> 00:13:26,758
Take cover!

212
00:13:28,527 --> 00:13:30,040
We're doing this for you.

213
00:13:30,687 --> 00:13:32,678
ENHOH
