Hollywood Drawing - Chapter 612

Popular recommendation:

During the short journey from the director’s office to the shooting scene in the studio, James Franco looked at the thick cigar that had been extinguished in his hand from time to time.

The reason is very simple, and the way Wayne reminds him is really special. The cigar in his hand is a valuable commodity that ordinary people, even those low-level actors in Hollywood, will never be able to enjoy. If you want to enjoy this kind of top-level commodity in the future, then put away all the flaws in your character and finish it well. The next shooting work.

The hero of “The Flash” is an unattainable opportunity for 90% of the actors in the circle, and this is also the best way for James Franco to become famous.

As we all know, even if it is a little-known actor, as long as he proves himself commercially, there will be countless film companies coming to the door with projects in hand. As long as you can achieve success, fame and fortune will come naturally.

Become a big star and make a lot of money, and it is possible to enjoy the top things all the time. Wayne’s meaning is very simple, not only the top cigar in his hand, but also filming well, becoming a big star, top beauties, top luxury cars, luxury houses, these are the enjoyments he looks up to now, and he will naturally have them.

“Help me put it away, be careful, and return it to me after work is over.”

The moment he saw the agent, James Franco had a serious expression, handed the big cigar in his hand to the agent, and repeated several words in a low voice.

Then, under the doubtful eyes of the agent, he silently looked at Wayne who was sitting behind the director’s monitor, clenched his fists secretly, and whispered softly in a voice that only he could hear. “Mr. Greenberg, thank you so much for giving me this life lesson…”

“It seems that your reminder method is far more effective than my conversation.”

While Robert was still debugging the machine, Charles Rowan leaned on the monitor table, tilted his head and shrugged: “Mr. Greenberg, the life mentor, huh?”

“You are wrong, Charles.”

Before Wayne could say anything, the props team leader, Weeks Hart, leaned over with an unruly smile. He pouted and joked: “The boss has never been someone’s life mentor. When you continue to work with him a few times, you will understand the boss’s way of doing things.”

“Yeah, yeah, Vic was right.”

The casting assistant director Schwartz-Bob turned into the assistant director in charge of coordinating the scene after the crew officially started filming. “Charles, it takes time to see some things clearly.”

Today is the first day that the crew officially started filming. Everyone is obviously in a good mood. Seeing that several core creators want to make fun of themselves, Wayne just shook his head slightly, and didn’t say anything to stop it, a good working atmosphere. , is always the director’s dream scene.

“Wow, let me explain to our producers.”

Steve, the lighting supervisor who has been on the crew since the first scene, walked over shaking his head, with an unruly smile on the corner of his mouth, and looked at the producer Charles Rowan, who deliberately put on a hoarse look His voice pretended to be serious and said:

“Charles, from the way the boss acts, he can never be a life mentor. I can guarantee that this is the last chance he will give to the future star. Let me tell you the boss’s philosophy, then That is, when he did not dismantle your tricks with Yan Yue, he has quietly eliminated you!

In the eyes of the boss, he has always only made choices, not education! So, I can guarantee that this is the last chance for the future star. If he makes another mistake, he will definitely be eliminated silently! Wake up, Charles, you tell a tyrant that he’s a life coach…”

“Ok, it seems that your preparations have been done very well.”

Seeing a few people laughing and laughing, the more outrageous they were, Wayne closed the storyboard with a snap, and while lighting a cigarette, he tilted his head to look at the few people. “Very good. After the filming officially starts for a while, whoever makes a mistake in the department will invite the whole group to drink coffee and pay for their own money!”

“Hey, hey, boss, you can’t do this!”

“Shit, get out of the way Charles, get out of your way, you’re blocking me from doing lighting work!”

“Hey~, boss, do you want to be so ruthless, my salary is not that much…”

Several people acted in the same instant, looking up at the studio ceiling slightly, each turned around and quickly left the director’s seat, leaving Charles Rowan with a stunned look. In the end, even he, facing Wayne’s stare, shrugged his shoulders and turned to go to the third-party insurance company’s reviewer on the crew to discuss the issue of coordinating the shooting funds.

The director’s seat, which was still surrounded by the heads of various departments, was immediately left with Wayne and the director’s monitor. Sofia Coppola, who had been standing silently not far behind Wayne, saw all this if there was any. Thinking nodded.

“Such a harmonious crew atmosphere is something I’ve never seen in the industry when I’ve grown up so much.”

Turning her head and looking at the assistant sitting next to her, Sofia Coppola said emotionally: “I thought all the Hollywood crews would always be full of intrigues, scrambles and intrigues, Nina, this Maybe that’s one of the reasons Wayne has been so successful.”

Participating in the filming of the great film “The Godfather” since infancy, the assistant director is quite familiar with the operation of the Hollywood crew. These admirations are not only the sensibility of a woman, but they really surprised her from the bottom of her heart.

“You are right.”

It was rare that there was a woman in the crew who made her feel good. Nina closed the magazine on her lap, pushed her glasses and said, “The reason why they are harmonious is because they need to show Wayne before work starts. Look, it’s a way to show that you value your work.”

“Aha?” Sofia Coppola looked at Nina in disbelief.

“There will be bad things in other crews in the circle, but the boss’ crew is actually quite a bit.” The assistant nodded, glanced at Wayne’s back, and explained in a low voice, “It’s just because these people already know the boss. The work habit, whenever the preparatory work begins, it will put away all the contradictions between them.

The prop team leader Wicks Hart, everyone calls him Wick, in fact, there has always been a deep conflict between him and the set supervisor Mia Craig, and the two groups will also have friction from time to time . There is also lighting expert Steve, who often does not deal with the person in charge of the live radio, and there are many similar things. ”

Nina’s explanation made Sofia Coppola frown slightly, obviously overturning the cognition she had just gained. But this is right, and this situation is in line with the composition of the Hollywood crew.

Everyone has their own pursuits and desires. The more talented and capable they are, the more so. Obviously, they want to suppress this large group of top players in the circle. Even if they are reluctant, they must clearly show that they will The determination to cooperate tacitly is the ability of the crew leader.

“Sophia, don’t be deceived by the appearance of those people.”

Glancing at the thinking woman beside her, Nina sighed and reminded again: “What you want to see is never the superficial performance of those in charge of various departments, but to learn how to coordinate everyone. , work **** the project together.”

Don’t look at the assistant lady, she is always like a transparent person in the crew, but she sees the relationship between the core creative team more clearly than Wayne.

She still remembers what Wayne talked to her a few years ago, the director of the crew is actually equivalent to a big contractor, and the most important thing in front of the director is always how to coordinate the work of the small contractors. , and then we can talk about creation.

“James.”

The sound of Wayne calling the male lead sounded on the set, which also attracted Sofia Coppola, who immediately took a few steps forward, pricked up her ears, and listened in the cluttered studio environment.

“James, how are you preparing?”

“No problem.” James Franco looked down at the director behind the monitor and said confidently: “I’ve practiced countless times, Mr. Greenberg, don’t worry.”

“Pay attention to your body language, movements, expressions, gestures and voice.”

Wayne gently flipped a light meter in his hand and warned again: “As a field investigator, you are very knowledgeable and observant. Show me your self-confidence through performance, okay?”

“Ok.”

Patting the male protagonist on the shoulder, Wayne nodded with satisfaction, took the light meter and walked towards the set, and began to take the trouble to check it again from beginning to end.

“Steve, the light is still too soft.”

It didn’t take long, he called in the direction of the lighting team, and after Steve trotted over, he threw the light meter into the opponent’s hand, and continued: “Be tough, I’ll wait for you.”

“No problem, boss, I’ll do it as soon as possible.”

As the various departments are ready, Gilmour is also directing and coordinating the extras in the scene for the last time. In fact, the first scene was very simple. Barry Allen, as an on-site investigator, inspected the scene of the eucalyptus and gave his own analysis under the onlookers of the crowd and colleagues.

“Camera crew?”

“Ready, boss.”

“Lighting~www.mtlnovel.com~ When everyone said there was no problem, Wayne nodded to the on-set recorder, put down the loudspeaker, sat behind the director’s monitor, and stared at the upcoming start without blinking. shooting.

“The Flash, scene one, act one, start!”

With a sound of “pop.”, as the slate was laid down in front of the main camera, the shooting officially began.

James Franco’s first shot was lying on the ground to observe the scene traces. His expressions were all transmitted to the director’s monitor through the main camera.

His expression was serious and confident. After a little observation, a smile appeared on his face, and then he got up from the ground with the camera, knelt down on one knee, and observed the traces on the ground. At this time, other cameras are capturing the performance of others around them.

“Escape vehicle.” James Franco looked down at the traces on the scene, and said quickly: “It’s a Chevrolet Trailblazer. This Chevrolet has just been launched for two years. Because of the weight of the body, the rear tire marks will be like this. Generous and clear…”

As he spoke his lines quickly, the camera on the side was also shooting the footage quickly recorded by the staff next to him. Multi-camera and multi-angle shooting was always the best way to improve efficiency.

There are other cameras that have been capturing the reactions of the crowd, and Wayne’s standards are much lower in this regard, because the cameras hardly focus on the expressions of the crowd.

“cut!”

When this simple scene ended, Wayne shouted into the loudspeaker at the right time: “Well done, James, but it’s not enough, you can do better!”

“All departments reset, do it again.”
