The Director of Music Department - Chapter 1397
Simply put, if you ask an actor to play a blind person, or a deaf-mute person, let him act directly, and you will definitely not be able to act that way.
At this time, it is necessary to experience life.
One is to observe and observe how blind people travel and live.
Then imitate.
There is another kind of experience, such as blindfolded, or closed mouth, to experience, blindness, or aphasia.
Of course, the latter is definitely more difficult.
The director is different.
For example, a director wants to shoot a story about a rural village, but he himself has never lived in a rural village, so naturally he can’t capture the true rural flavor.
At this time, he also needs to experience and experience this kind of rural life, but he does not need to substitute someone, but to observe and experience the local customs.
Therefore, Yang Qing’s words are not unreasonable.
What kind of movie he wants to make, if it is from North America, then the main life background and so on, he can prepare and experience it over and over again.
This is really not a big problem.
Wang Yifan smiled and said: “I have a story here, um, how can I say it, it can be regarded as a new bottle of old wine, the story is actually very simple to sum up, according to our domestic words, it is hanging silk against Bai Fumei, um, I can’t say that it’s pure hanging silk, but it’s probably the case, how about it? Are you interested?”
Wang Yifan finally made a decision.
To be honest, the plot of “Notting Hill” is simple and straightforward.
But this movie believes that the reputation is not small.
Known as the fairy tale of Notting Hill, everyone has a Notting Hill in their hearts.
So, this movie, if it is made well and run properly, is still quite good.
Hearing what Wang Yifan said, Zhao Dongming and Yang Qing reacted completely differently.
Zhao Dongming’s disappointment is almost written on his face. In fact, Zhao Dongming is not blamed for this, because romantic films, to put it bluntly, even in the era when romantic films are popular, in fact, the box office is not good at the box office.
But for Yang Qing, he is really worried that Wang Yifan will send a hit movie with high expectations or a more complicated movie as soon as he comes up.
In that case, not to mention the pressure, the key is that he really doesn’t believe that he can manage it well.
But if it’s just a relatively simple plot, and the expectations are not too high, then he can be more calm.
It’s impossible to be fat in one bite.
This is one of the reasons why Yang Qing chose the category of romance movies.
Because other types, with Zhao Dongming and Ali Media’s enthusiastic mentality, they will definitely attach great importance to them, and their expectations will also increase indefinitely.
After all, the price paid by Ari Media for this opportunity from Wang Yifan this time is definitely not low.
“However, this kind of movie has relatively high requirements for the male and female protagonists, um, especially in terms of popularity, and the requirements are relatively high, and the age cannot be too young.” Wang Yifan thought for a while and said.
Don’t look at the simple plot of “Notting Hill”, it seems that the filming is not difficult, but for this kind of film, the actors are very important.
Drama movies, watch actors, action movies watch action, science fiction movies watch creativity and special effects.
Drama films, especially romantic films like “Notting Hill”, to be honest, the actors can be said to be the core of the whole movie.
So, from this perspective, the cost of “Notting Hill” is certainly not too low.
In particular, the director is not a major Hollywood director, but also a commercial film, so if you want to find a suitable actor, the pay is certainly not low.
As for the box office, Wang Yifan is not worried about losing money, because this kind of movie can be said to be the most stable and safest.
Because of this kind of movie, it can be said that the routine is very straightforward. For some viewers, even if they may feel old-fashioned, they still won’t resist this kind of movie.
But Zhao Dongming obviously resisted.
No way, what Ari Media needs is an explosive film to give them a channel in North America and make an eye-catching publicity.
But if the box office fails to burst, then the effect will naturally be greatly reduced.
This is why Zhao Dongming is dissatisfied.
Of course, he was more dissatisfied with Yang Qing, and some did not understand Yang Qing’s ideas.
Obviously there is a better choice, but I choose a love movie!
But he just couldn’t directly express his thoughts.
Wang Yifan ignored Zhao Dongming’s reaction, but said with a smile: “In fact, the plot outline is very simple. The gentle and kind-hearted William lives in Notting Hill, west London, and owns a travel bookstore with poor business. Because of the unsatisfactory business, He could only rent a room with a strangely-behaved Spike near the bookstore. Since his divorce, his love life has gone blank.
Anna is a Hollywood movie star. Her jade photos appear on the covers of various magazines, and her every move has attracted worldwide attention.
On an unremarkable Wednesday, Anna walked into William’s bookstore. Her elegant gesture left a deep first impression on William. At the same time, he realized that this elegant lady is the well-known Hollywood actress. Anna. Soon after Anna left the bookstore, William met Anna again on the way back to help his colleagues buy drinks. He accidentally spilled a drink on Anna. Feeling guilty, William asked Anna to wash his clothes at his house, but he did not expect that he would fall in love with the star and pretend to be a reporter to date Anna on an excuse. Soon the two fell in love, but their sweet life was suddenly ruined by the reporter who discovered it. Anna was under pressure from the media and needed to make a decision, and the two also quarreled. The two embarked on a fairy-tale love journey with a huge gap in identity. ”
In fact, to put it bluntly, this is a typical routine of beautiful women + handsome men + chance encounters.
The most successful is the previous “Roman Holiday”. In contrast, the ending of “Roman Holiday” is more intriguing.
And “Notting Hill” is more like an adult’s fairy tale.
Zhao Dongming is actually a little distressed.
Without him, Wang Yifan’s very few stories, in exchange for the huge price of Ari Media.
Yes, Wang Yifan’s scripts can always be said to be a thousand words.
Because his movie projects have always been expensive.
But even so, Zhao Dongming can only eat it.
Because if there are other opinions, then he won’t even get this.
On the contrary, Yang Qing was quite surprised. To be honest, the story of “Notting Hill” is really old-fashioned.
If it is a script posted by someone else, the only attribute of this kind of script is to be shelved. That’s not right, it may also be taken by someone to shoot a low-cost Internet big.
But this story, from Wang Yifan’s mouth, turned into a priceless thing.
