Ryssarna skall nu spela in en långfilm i rymden, men en filmcrew på tre.
http://www.collectspace.com/news/news-100521a-soyuz-ms-19-launch-challenge.html
"A Russian cosmonaut who suffered a cardiac arrest during a spacewalk at the
International Space Station will receive the emergency surgery he needs to
survive the trip back to Earth now that a surgeon has been launched to the
orbiting outpost.
Or rather that is the fictional plot line behind the real-life liftoff of
Russian actress Yulia Peresild, producer Klim Shipenko and veteran cosmonaut
Anton Shkaplerov on a mission to film the first feature-length movie in space.
/Dessa tre är inspelningsteamet./
The three crewmates launched Tuesday (Oct. 5) on board Russia's Soyuz MS-19
spacecraft from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan. Riding atop a Soyuz 2.1a
rocket that was specially decorated for the movie, Shkaplerov, Shipenko and
Peresild took flight at 4:55 a.m. EDT (0855 GMT or 1:55 p.m. local time) on a
fast-track, two-orbit rendezvous to the space station.
The Soyuz is scheduled to dock with Russia's Rassvet mini-research module at
about 8:12 a.m. EDT (1212 GMT). Update: Docking occurred at 8:22 a.m. EDT (1222
GMT) under manual control by Shkaplerov due to communication issues."
Regin kan nog väntas bli litet improviserad. Det blir nog inte lätt att spela
in saker, i noll-G och minimalt filmteam.
"Peresild and Shipenko will spend 12 days on the space station filming segments
for "Вызов" ("Challenge" in English), a joint production between Roscosmos, the
Russian television station Channel One and the studio Yellow, Black and White.
Peresild will play the surgeon, Zhenya, with Novitskiy, Dubrov and Shkaplerov
taking a break from their real-life role as cosmonauts to play bit parts as the
space station's crew in the film.
Shipenko will fill several of the behind-the-scene roles, including director,
make-up artist, sound editor and cinematographer.
Most of the 35 to 40 minutes of filming will take place in Russia's Nauka
multi-purpose laboratory module, but other areas of the complex may be shown as
well. It is not clear if any of the other Expedition 65 crew members will
appear in the movie."
Troligen kompletteras dessa 35-40 minuter med scener jordsides. Annars blir det
ingen långfilm. (Svenska Filminstitutet definierar en långfilm som misnt 1h15m
lång.)
"Roscosmos first announced the film project in November 2020, after the news
broke that actor Tom Cruise was in the early stages of working with director
Doug Liman, SpaceX, Axiom Space and NASA to film a movie aboard the space
station. Jumping at a chance to claim another first in space, Roscosmos quickly
set about to cast the actress who would be the film's lead.
Peresild, 37, was chosen from a pool of 3,000 applicants and 20 finalists in
May. Together with her back-up, Alena Mordovina, Roscosmos said that the
casting also tested a new model for selecting and training individuals for
spaceflight under an abbreviated schedule.
"It didn't come easy for me," said Peresild, referring to her training at a
press briefing on Monday. "There are so many acronyms, and if you don't learn
them all you won't understand anything else further on."
An accomplished actress who has already achieved fame in Russia, Peresild has
appeared in award-winning Russian movies and television series, as well as
acted on stage at the Malaya Bronnaya theater in Moscow. Her launch coincides
with World Space Week, which this year is themed around "Women in Space."
Peresild is only the fifth Russian woman to fly into space out of the 67 total
female astronauts worldwide. Cosmonaut Valentina Tereshkova became the first in
1963.
Shipenko, 38, is a film director, screenwriter, actor and producer. His
earlier credits include the 2017 feature film "Salyut 7," which was loosely
based on the real 1985 mission to the last of the Soviet Union's Salyut-class
space stations. /Här en sovjetisk film om Salju 7 på engelska, men den är
tidigare och inte 2017-filmen https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P3SKcY6d-tI /
Shkaplerov, 49, has already logged more than 533 days in space having
previously served on three International Space Station expedition crews in
2012, 2015 and 2018. When he returns to Earth in March, Shkaplerov will rank
seventh in the world for the most time in space.
Before "Challenge," Soviet-era cosmonauts filmed aboard Soyuz T-9 and inside
the Salyut 7 space station for the Russian 1984 narrative film "Return from
Orbit." Twenty-four years later, privately-funded astronaut Richard Garriott
shot "Apogee of Fear," a short science fiction film set aboard the
International Space Station."
Fast det känns litet grand som ett stunt. Att göra något bara för att vara
först.
Delar av filmen "Apollo 13" spelades in i noll-G, i form av att flyga i
ballistisk bana i ett jetplan, den s k Vomit Comet. Här en film om det:
