In conditions of self-isolation, Russian TV series began to gain more and more popularity. Viewers give preference to novelties of domestic cinema, among which there was a new project from NTV with Nikolai Kozak in the title role. What is known about where the television film "Three Captains" (2020) was filmed, in which city the photo and video shooting took place? Let's reveal all the secrets of tape production.
Plot
For these three heroes, the job is far from easy. Three retired Interior Ministry captains, Alexander Pekhota, Alexei Ternovsky and Viktor Seregin, are professional explosives technicians. And they are called only in the most difficult cases: when the mines are not made according to factory schemes, but with their own hands - the so-called "homemade". And although their service in hot spots is already behind, all three will have to face the dangers that await them in civilian life. In addition, they will have to meet with a colleague who once went over to the side of the enemy.
Filming
Footage from the filming of the series "Three Captains" (2020) is already freely available on the network. And the series itself premiered on March 30 on the NTV channel. The series was directed by Ilya Shekhovtsov ("Disgusting Art", "Witnesses", "Such Work").
The main locations where the series was filmed are located in Yaroslavl and the Yaroslavl region.
It was very convenient in terms of travel - not far from Moscow. The work was carried out both among new buildings, for example, at the Shinnik plant, and in the historical part of the city.
During the filming process, the actors had to get acquainted with pyrotechnics. After all, something explodes every now and then in the series - something that the main characters have to face, and the main villains too. But you shouldn't worry about the team - representatives of the Ministry of Internal Affairs were on duty at the site, controlling all the dangerous scenes with pyrotechnics and explosions. The actors admit: they were scared not from the scenes with the explosions, but from the ticks, since many frames of the tape were filmed in the grass.
Also, difficulties arose not only with the element of fire, but also with water. The scene of the escape of the main villain on an inflatable boat almost fell through. And all due to the fact that the river near Yaroslavl, where the shots of the escape were filmed, was shallow, and therefore the boat always clung to the bottom. Also, according to the concept, the film should have had a lot of scenes with wet asphalt. But the right amount of water was not always enough, so the team had to use fire hydrants.
The location of the entire film crew was also difficult. All the trailers of the actors and staff were located in the immediate vicinity of the cameras, so people had to hide in the bushes and ravines. And at one point there was not enough extras for the hostage-taking shot, so make-up artists, costume designers and drivers had to be involved.
A photo of where the Three Captains (2020) series was filmed, in which city the main production of the serial film was carried out, and what is known about the filming process itself - this information was very interesting to viewers. The NTV project will definitely appeal to fans of explosions, action scenes and a dynamic plot.
