A movie published on October 27, 2017Blade Runner 2049", The world continues as it is from" Blade Runner ", including the point that the same protagonist Harrison Ford appeared as hero Rick Deckard of the previous work" Blade Runner "produced 35 years ago There are many attempts to make you aware of things strongly. One of them is the appearance of the previous album, Heroine · Rachel, which had not been revealed at all in the trailer. The production process of Rachel's appearance that surprised the audience as it was 35 years ago is revealed only a little.

In this work, various things have been kept secret until disclosure, but one of the facts that has been kept secret is re-emergence of Rachel. Even in the field, it seems to have been called "Rita" so that the fact of Rachel's appearance will not be leaked out.

Actor Sean Young who played Rachel with "Blade Runner" produced in 1982. Rachel who appeared in the play was itself 35 years ago.


However, it is indeed impossible story to leave the same face after 35 years, CG is used. In this scene where Deckard and Rachel face each other, an actress Lauren Peta stood as a base before Harrison Ford when shooting. After that, synthesized the face of Rachel according to the marker that was attached to Peta's face. It is quite creepy to cut out here, but this is also interesting where it is also like a blade runner.


Rachel is completed if you incorporate hairstyle, eyebrows, etc. together.


This is the scene that Rachel appears in "Blade Runner" shaking the cigarette. Perhaps it seems as if you used the old video as it is, but it's actually a different thing ....


It was due to "digital double" using CG.



This is the same scene of the old work.


When comparing it, you can see that the area around the hair is clearer.


Also, as one of the scenes that is not Rachel's, though, it is a "love scene" of a hero K and his lover Joy. It is revealed at the appearance scene of Joy in the main part at once, but in fact Joy is a real hologram. However, in order to touch K with somehow, I will synchronize myself with the movement of the prostitute's body and lay K with the body. Even if you see this story this scene makes full use of VFX, but it is very painful and beautiful scene.

Since Ana de Armas who played Joy at the time of shooting existed, you can attach a hand to the head of K properly.


However, since Joy in the play is a hologram, it is used in a form that synchronizes the body of the prostitute to touch K. Because it is not completely overlapping, sometimes Jiyi's hands and bodies and prostitutes' hands and bodies are displaced.


Although it may seem a little creepy when viewed with still images, it is a scene that makes me feel excited by the movement of Joy's feelings.


Regarding the existence of Rachel, please be sure to check out the special video that Harrison Ford said.
