Winx Reimagined: Behind the Live-Action Magic

Question: Tell me a story 1 famous. The real director decided to adapt the animated series the Winx Club and made a full-length film with live actors.The director of the film says he watched this animated series, and I realized it has a lot of possibilities. That's why I started shooting. The most difficult thing was to choose the actors. I know that myself and Ginio Straffi, the creator of Winx, used Sailor Moon as the basis for the famous ones. people of that time, as well as barbie dolls, so I decided to watch the series and find people who look like the characters It was also difficult. make costumes for the transformation of the main characters wings and also paint it all Emma Stone, the role of Bloom. she says after watching the animated series, I didn't understand why she was so unique, then I realized that she was the main character, she was always ready to protect her friends and always ready to help everyone, so I decided to play this character and it was a little awkward to walk in this costume The director speaks again: "I specially made comfortable costumes for the characters so that they were comfortable to run and walk in, they were based on costumes for figure skating and athletics," so the costumes fit the actors very well and do not even constrict movement An inscription appears on the screen: Bloom fairy dragon flame. then the special effects directors tell blue, we have the fire fairy of the dragon, her favorite color is red, but although blue prevails in her costumes and we repeated her costume, Then you can see how the directors. We made the details of the wings costume out of special plastic so that he could see the effect in the flight scenes. We painted all this in 3 stages. The paint sometimes burst, so we had to paint it again. * the special effects director approaches the costume and touches it and says, as you can see, the fabric is smooth and does not constrict the movement so that the actress can put it on at any time * then footage from the movie is shown, as Bloom fights monsters. then the special effects director reappears, Bloom's boots were well made, they could be fastened with a special fastener. Bloom's hair is red hair, we specially made a special wig for the actress, so Emma Stone looks simply gorgeous in this outfit. Of course, initially the director wanted to draw Bloom on the boots. flames, but then this idea was abandoned, although we paid no respect to the pose in this film, it's a concept in the frame where Bloom runs through a fiery whirlwind Then the inscription Stella fairy of the bright sun Margot Ro appears on the screen. The director says, of course, the audience didn't like the way Stella was portrayed, but then she was revealed as a deep character. then Margot Robbie gives a comment Stella is a very bright fairy, she is beautiful, always ready to support a conversation, even sometimes joking, I like that about her. Then Margot Robbie says it was just good to wear her suits. The fabric was not compressive, it was easy to run and walk in them. It was much better than when the director wouldn't let me wear Harley Quinn in Suicide Squad during my role, and here I was given a nice costume for Margot Robbie, saying her casual look was good, though the sandals were a little big and it felt like I was walking on stilts. The director interrupts and says Stella is Bloom's best friend. They appear together very often in this film. Special effects directors, we specially made Stella's costume, took a special fabric, connected it with a ring, however, we had to hem some points. The wings are also made smooth to depict flight in spectacular scenes. A special effects supplier passes by and says, "Here you go, a wig, actresses, a suit and boots! We have depicted everything in exact detail in a scene from the movie. He says listen, the fashion for pearls has long been outdated Think about what Margot Robbie said about the role in the movie and how well the costume looked on her. And how did she like the character? then a new inscription appears on the screen flora is a fairy of nature in this film, she is played by an actress with Selena Gomez in the next frame Selena Gomez sits in chairs and says flora is a very kind and good fairy she will never allow her friends to be offended, she always devotes time to nature and plants for this, I like her costume, even though It was easy, but sometimes it got in the way. for example, it was uncomfortable even though it was elastic and the chest sometimes got stuck in the 1st position Special effects directors, we made Flora's costume Elastic as well and painted it green. For example, it looks cool at night or in night scenes. Special effects suppliers are trying on a costume. then Selena Gomez says the costume is light, but still sometimes it was difficult to walk in it, and I like the scene from the movie flora waters the plants and says be careful with the plants. The next inscription is Musa, the fairy of music, the actress of the Order of CHO In the next shot, the actress sits in a chair and says Musa is a cool character, even though she acts like a girl, she's combative. I liked the scene in which I play this character. She smashed monsters. She's a kid. She has a cool guy. I like this character.Special effects directors and production designers. and also the technicians say Musa's costume was the easiest to make, it was light, the boots were just as beautiful and the wings were simple, but anyway we spent money on them, we painted them in 3 layers, glued sequins on them and tried on the actress by the way, the hair for all the heroines is wigs, the actresses had to sit in chairs for several hours to apply makeup. And a wig, so that's what we did. A scene from the movie "Musa says, 'Come on, we're the Winx fairies, we're going to beat everyone'. Another scene, but what about Stella, are we going to let people experiment on her The inscription on the screen Aisha the wave fairy is played by Yara Shahidi as an actress sitting in a chair and saying Aisha is just a good heroine, she is strong, always resilient, she is ready to stand up for herself, she does sports, she looks a bit like me, I also jog in the morning, and Aisha is a cool girl, and her costume is just awesome. The mix of emerald and green is just awesome. The directors of the equipment and the people have learned for the special effects. and the props of the film were shown aisha's costume aisha's costume was a bit difficult, we had to paint it in green and emerald, the wings of the boots were painted in 2 layers, we had to attach the wings of the costume so that they would not fall off The director of the film says Aisha has always been a fairy who appeared in season 2, but I decided to include her in the 1st film since this film is not a Winx franchise, it's like a separate universe, so Aisha is here. A moment on the set. The director adjusts the wig of the actress and her wings and the director shouts: "good fight with Trix." 1 2 3 In the next frame, the inscription tekna the fairy of technology, actress Maisie Williams, appears Maisie Williams says it's awesome to play a fairy. She's a tech fairy. She has a cool costume. And she's a good strategist. It's a shame that they don't show her much in the later seasons. The editors and directors in charge of the special effects said it took us a very long time to make a costume, we made every detail separately, sewed on the wings so that we could change them, made boots from old ones, we took ordinary boots, painted them purple, betrayed the costume, we had 8 tekna costumes. each of them either tore or broke, for example, one day Messi Williams came out in one of the costumes right on stage and during the fight scene the costume on her tore, we had to throw a towel over the actress. He still keeps the helmet. We made the wings of the helmet green, a visor like a green mask or glass so that we could push it out. supplier of special effects. he puts his hand up and a mask appears, as you can see, everything is working, this is the same torn suit. as you can see, we have option number 3, did it fit the actress well? And then the boys bring something else, and these are the wings of a paraglider. The wings can be changed, they look like magnets. A scene from the movie tekno Strix fights and shouts hey witches it's time to end you the magic inside us Then the next scene. Winx's costumes are taken outside and 1 person shouts, "Whose character is this, is this Bloom? Other people making the film said sometimes, instead of making something new, we took the old one. Here's our costume warehouse. These are the costumes of the main characters. Here are the boots. Here's everything we did for the film. Some of them were broken, for example, the tekne suit-that's the torn version. then the girl in charge of makeup shows the wigs and these are the wigs the actresses had to wear wigs to avoid spoiling their hair It was interesting to make this movie. We became friends on set, and one day we brought pizza, Bloom's favorite food. Figure out how the filming went on. then they show scenes where the main characters transform and fly away, and the director says the film paid off, many products were released in theaters, and I'm glad I filmed this brand.then the special effects directors show. This is where we keep fairy costumes for bloom costumes, stella costumes, flora costumes, Musa costumes. Aisha's costumes and here are the costumes of Tekna and here is the torn costume, come up with what kind of torn costume it was. Here we keep wigs here are the former dressing rooms here the actresses were made up. The special effects directors continue to show the props of the film
