Movie Master - Chapter 1011
Skillfully backed the car into the parking space, picked up his own coffee from the passenger seat, opened the door and walked out, and a battery golf cart drove over, “Hey, Mr. Strelo, today Are you still coming to work?”
Looking back, Lance saw a familiar face, “Jason, good morning.” Jason is a parking lot manager, and he has been able to see him almost every day during the past two months of working in Burbank.
“Do I need to give you a ride? It’s not far from Studio 13.” Jason patted the seat next to him, and Lance took a sip of coffee, and sat on it without any polite excuses, ” Not many people stay in Burbank to work today.” Jason said with a smile, today is the Golden Globe Awards ceremony, and most of the entire filming base has been emptied. Everyone is preparing carefully for this annual big party.
Lance shrugged. “There’s always someone to work, isn’t there?” Like Jason.
Jason realized it all at once, and laughed, “Those annoying followers at the gate of the base don’t think so.” Burbank filmed the gate of the base, and a large number of reporters gathered, all of them were watching Lance Every move, obviously, they are all guessing whether Lance will appear at the last moment like last year’s Oscar, but judging from the current situation, the possibility seems unlikely.
Lance took another sip of coffee, noncommittal.
Jason could sense that Lance didn’t seem to want to talk about it in depth, but he couldn’t give up easily. Even though he knew this, he still bit the bullet and said, “So, are you sure you won’t be at the party tonight?” Lance Holding the coffee, he turned his head, and his eyes fell on Jason, which immediately put a lot of pressure on Jason. Lance doesn’t like small talk, and he doesn’t like others spying on the internal work of the crew. This is a well-known fact in the Burbank photography base, but precisely because of this, news about Lance and the crew can often sell a lot of money. The price, not to mention… “Sorry, sir, I made a bet with my friends, so I’m a little curious. Sorry.” Jason explained messily.
Lance looked at Jason with a half-smile, and just when Jason was on the verge of collapse, his eyes shifted away, which made Jason heave a sigh of relief, and then he heard Lance ask, “What did you bet on?” ?”
Jason thought he had heard it wrong, and was stunned for a while in surprise. Lance repeated the question again, and Jason finally realized, “Five hundred, you won’t be present.”
But Jason didn’t wait for Lance’s answer, someone next to him interrupted the conversation, “Lance, hey, Lance!” A figure ran over quickly, following the golf cart parallel, Lance gestured, Jason Slowing down the speed of the car, the man stopped vigorously, “Jon would like to ask, have you read the script of the revised three scenes? Do you have time to visit the crew today?” Both “Iron Man” and “The Incredible Hulk” work at the photography base in Burbank, which is less than ten minutes away by walking.
“I’ve already revised the script. You can go to Percy to ask for it. I told him to pick it up yesterday. I don’t have time today, so I won’t go. There is a big scene here, and it may take a while.” Lance simply replied Finished, and then signaled Jason to move on, but before Jason stepped on the accelerator, Russell Crowe and Josh Brolin, who were passing by together, walked over, “Lance, you shouldn’t show up today Here and Beverly Hills are waiting for your appearance.” Josh’s muffled words immediately attracted the attention of many people around, and everyone stretched their ears.
Lance raised his voice and returned, “You shouldn’t be here today, Chiwetel is on vacation, are you sure you don’t need to take vacation?” Chiwetel Ejiofor, he, Russell and Josh are filming Ridley Scott. “American Gangster,” but Chiwetel won a nomination for Best Actor in a Musical Comedy, so today is the day off. “Or are you waiting for an invitation from the Losers’ Club?”
Russell and Josh both raised their middle fingers and responded to Lance, causing light laughter from all around. Lance ignored it, turned his head and motioned to Jason, and then the car started moving again.
The golf cart is driving on the wide and flat avenue of the photography base. Since there are no road shoulders on both sides, pedestrians come and go, and the speed of the car can’t be raised. Catherine standing on the side of the road can be seen from a distance- Zeta-Jones raised his hand and tried to make Jason stop, but Lance patted Jason’s arm to signal him not to stop, and then raised his voice and shouted in the direction of Catherine, “I’m in a hurry, next time.” The car wobbled past Catherine.
Catherine hopped her feet depressingly on the spot, “Damn Lance! You still owe me a cooperation!” She originally thought that she had hope to play “Iron Man”, but in the end, Rachel McAdams took away the opportunity. It really made Catherine very depressed.
Jason turned his head to look at Catherine, who was drifting away, his gaze was drawn back, and he fell on Lance in astonishment, especially when he saw Lance’s calm and calm face, he was even more astonished, but Lance didn’t pay attention to it at all. His intention was to just drink coffee leisurely. To be precise, along the way, almost everyone was greeting Lance, and the greetings kept coming one after another. It reminded me of the golden age of Hollywood when the production companies were still covering the sky with their hands, and the top producers were well-deserved on the set. King, it’s just that after the antitrust bill came out, that golden age is gone forever.
The golf cart stopped at the entrance of Studio 13, and a group of workers who were loading and unloading props at the entrance of Studio 15 diagonally across the street whistled one after another. Class jokes can be heard endlessly. It is no exaggeration to say that the entire Hollywood is paying attention to Lance’s dynamics, newspapers, media and film companies are only part of it, so people working in the industry are more or less paying attention to this big drama—if Lance If Adams refuses to attend the Golden Globe Awards again, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association will really be ashamed and ashamed. Even the new film history box office champion is absent from the awards ceremony. How can the Golden Globe Awards be called the number one event in the United States?
Lance still ignored them. After getting out of the car, he patted Jason on the shoulder and said with a smile, “It’s better to double the bet.” After speaking, Lance turned and left.
Sitting in the driver’s seat, Jason was stunned for a moment, then suddenly understood, and immediately smashed the steering wheel excitedly.
Walking into Studio 13, he saw Albert who was confirming today’s shooting schedule head-on. He heard the greeting at the door, raised his head, glanced at Lance, and shouted, “Lance, wait. “Then I explained to my assistant again, “Okay, give this itinerary to the assistants of the leading actors.” Immediately afterwards, he quickly chased after him, “The picture of the motion capture technology that Edward tested last time has come out. , it’s still a bit distorted, and it feels better to use computer special effects to make it directly, are you sure you want to do this?”
“Where is the video?” Lance did not answer Albert’s question. Motion capture technology is still a new thing in Hollywood, and the general public opinion believes that this is a useless technology, except for Robert Zemeckis. Besides, few people value this technology.
Lance knows that the current motion capture technology is still not mature enough to achieve the fake effect, but the current technological development has reached Lance’s idea—the eyes are no longer dead fish eyes like computer special effects, but can truly convey The details of the performance of the actors, even the subtle changes in the details of the expressions can be seen. Although the overall picture is still slightly distorted, it has made a small improvement compared to the “King Kong” period. In 2006, it has already Enough to shock the audience.
Albert also knew that no one could change Lance’s mind, so he just sighed softly, “At Hayden’s place, he felt that the camera position and lighting could still be improved…” Before he finished speaking, Lance had already He took steps in the direction where Hayden was.
Edward Norton was sitting on a chair and carefully flipping through the script. There was a commotion in his ears. He raised his head subconsciously, followed the staff’s line of sight, and then saw Lance—even the “Invincible Hulk” Inside the production team ~www.mtlnovel.com~ are also speculating today whether Lance will attend the Golden Globe Awards. In fact, as long as Lance is willing, today’s filming work can be handed over to the assistant director. It will neither delay the filming progress nor miss the ceremony. There are countless solutions to the party that is close at hand. But unexpectedly, Lance still appeared on the set in person, which also meant that the Golden Globe was once again let go.
Looking back, Edward saw the surprised expressions of Naomi Watts and JK Simmons, but Edward showed a bright smile, “We shouldn’t be surprised, should we?” For the first time, the mainstream media in Hollywood was ignored, not to mention the Golden Globe Awards, last year, even the Oscars were almost ignored. Since Woody Allen, Lance is definitely the first stabbing head who is so out of tune with the mainstream media.
Turning his head and looking at the studio where the work was carried out in an orderly manner, the main crew of the “Invincible Hulk” crew is composed of Lance’s royal team, and then some new employees have been recruited. Look at those veterans, their expressions are extremely calm, like golden balls. The award has nothing to do with them at all, so professional, so calm, it is indeed completely different from other crews.
Edward put the script on the table, stood up, and said to Naomi and JK, “I’m going to discuss today’s shooting with Lance, how about you?” Naomi immediately stood up, JK also Some hesitation, but still stood up cautiously, Edward smiled, “Today is just a normal day, the work of the crew is what we need to pay attention to, there is no difference.”
As if responding to Edward’s words, a warning voice came from the studio door, “No taking photos! No visiting! Today is not a public interview day, and reporters are not allowed to enter!” Edward exchanged glances with Naomi and JK, and laughed dumbfounded .
