150. Chapter 150 Filming finally started
The clear sun hangs high in the sky, making the clean and tidy community look particularly refreshing. On the lush boulevard, two young men, a man and a woman in simple school uniforms were walking slowly, and others ran past each other from time to time.
"I've been in jail once, and I mean, I burned a room, and although no one lives in it, I was punished to continue to go to school and not drive until I was 21 years old." The boy said, while looking at the girl beside him, "But I have changed it. I'm practicing painting now, and...writing. I want to be a painter or fake it, or... doing both, writing novels and illustrations by myself, and people will know that I have changed myself."
"Donny Dahl, your name is so strange, like a cartoon character, a superhero or something." The girl had a faint smile and looked very beautiful.
"You think I'm not." The boy asked jokingly.
"Cut!" The director's voice rang out at this time.
"No, Sean, no, it shouldn't be like this." He said that, coming to Sean, and saying in circles around him, "It's a hell. Everything is in place, but there's always something missing when shooting."
"So do you have any good opinions, Richard?" Sean smiled, not taking his pickiness to heart.
"I have said everything I should say. It's okay when the test shot is done, but after the official start, the first two shots are OK, and the ones behind it gradually become wrong," Richard Kelly, who was only a few years older than him, said a little depressedly, "It's just a very simple scene. Donny has to show a certain degree of shyness and bad words. This is his first love, and it shouldn't be difficult..."
"Why not like this..." Sean pinched his chin and pondered for a moment, "What you asked before was to slow down and stutter a little while chanting the lines, and keep the same gloomy expression while keeping the same expression as cramped, right?"
"Yes, that's it." Kelly nodded in annoyance, then looked at him in a conscious way, "What new ideas do you have?"
"It's just a little thought, I can't say it for the time being. Why don't you see what you do?" Sean said and walked aside.
He took a deep breath first, then closed his eyes and brewed for a moment, then opened his eyes and looked at the air beside him, making a look of shame, and at the same time his brows were slightly frowning, giving people a feeling of nervousness and embarrassment, and at the same time, he spoke: "Look... well... do you want to go with me? I mean...be my girlfriend!"
When he said the first sentence, he was a little hesitant, and when he came to "Do you want to go with me?", he became quick and anxious, and then he became hesitant and laughed in a whisper. Even so, his slightly frown brows still did not let go, giving people a feeling of having something to hold in their hearts but being unable to say it.
It's really hard for him to make such rich expressions in these few words, but they are all very real, which makes the director and the people around him a little stunned.
"Yes, it's this, I want this!" Kelly shouted at this time, his joyful expression enough to explain his feelings, "Damn it! How did you do it!"
"You know, although I look more like a high school student through makeup, it is difficult to make a radical change in temperament, and I still look a little mature. So if you want to show that feeling of being uncomfortable and having a girl out for the first time, you need to use more expressions to suppress that mature feeling." Sean explained.
"Use more emoticons to suppress?" Kelly muttered a few words, then clapped his hands suddenly, "Yes, that's it, now we'll do it again."
As he said that, he began to greet him. After Shaun sighed softly, he immediately returned to his position and prepared to start again.
When late June arrived, "Charlie's Angels" finally closed the film after almost half a year. Drew probably felt a little sad, so even if there was still some final work, "Detective Hallucination" was launched. Richard Kelly, who was director, was born in 1975 and turned 25 years old more than two months ago. He graduated from Southern California. The script of this movie was conceived at that time, but no one was willing to invest in the next year.
The producers either thought the script was too strange, or that a guy who had just graduated from college and didn't have a single work could not believe that he could make a good work. He knew that at the beginning of this year, at a trailer screening for "Charlie's Angels", he recommended his script to her and asked her if she could play a role in it. Drew agreed, but asked himself to be the producer.
Kelly, who was depressed, said that this was a great thing, and immediately agreed. After a series of preparations, after raising 4.5 million yuan in funds, the filming finally started this summer.
It's quite interesting to say. After Sean came to the crew, Kelly kept a distance from him. Among all the actors, except Drew, who has not yet arrived, he is the only one who has become famous. For a young director who has no qualifications and directed his own debut work, the most troublesome thing is to get along with famous actors during filming.
Famous actors always have certain privileges on the set. The greater the fame, the greater the privilege. If the other party has a good temper, it is fine, but if the temper is very bad and the director does not have the fame and power that can match him, he is often easily accused of being angry. Kelly does not know Sean, so keeping a distance is inevitable. Sometimes he dares not speak loudly before filming. Although he has Drew's support, Sean is also recommended by Drew.
Fortunately, Sean also understood this and conducted a detailed investigation of Kelly before coming, so he quickly showed his favor. The other party was only five years older than him and was easy to get close to. After a while, he quickly became familiar with him, so the beginning scene came.
"Very good, Sean, that's it, you did a pretty good job," Kelly shouted with his arm waved after a test shot, "but the expression was a little bit more."
"What should I do?" Sean rolled his eyes and laughed.
"It depends on your own performance," Kelly shrugged, "I can't explain it clearly, in any case, just moderation."
"Damn, you are the director. You have the obligation to tell the actors how to perform and not push all these things on me." Sean cried out in complaint.
"Sorry, man, you can do more." Kelly laughed, "You know, you are an excellent actor."
Well, those who can do it are more laborious. Sean grabbed his head, a little helpless but a little proud. The reason why he was able to make targeted suggestions just now was because before coming to the crew, he did conduct a detailed analysis of the character and almost entered a dead end and couldn't get out.
This is a science fiction film that combines a lot of content related to the multiverse. Simply put, although the universe is stable, it will not go crazy and cause some accidents, such as the damn person not dead. At this time, the primary universe will separate an offline universe and then adjust it at a fixed time to restore the world to its original orbit. If it cannot be restored, then the primary universe will have problems and eventually collapse into a black hole.
In fact, this explanation is not completely correct. Kelly made a thick setting. Sean shook his head after reading it. Could he still plan to shoot a series?
The topic goes back to the story. The male protagonist Donnie Dal should have died in an air crash. When a plane flew over his house, the engine fell down, but there was a small problem here. The engine fell into a wormhole and fell into the male protagonist's home 28 days ago. At that time, the male protagonist was not at home, so he was not hurt. So an offline universe was created, and a purple rabbit came forward to arrange various things. The male protagonist must accept his death fate 28 days later.
It's almost that. Anyway, after combining Kelly's settings, Sean reads the script several times repeatedly, giving up the initial understanding of the hero saving his girlfriend to die, and replaces it with the current one.
Then he analyzed and interpreted the male protagonist from this perspective, but for some reason he always felt something was wrong. He called Garen and Sanders couldn't help. After carefully reading the script, they all agreed with Sean's analysis, but they also felt something was wrong, and they didn't know what was wrong, until Jordanna read the script.
"Isn't this a story about puberty for high school students?" she said.
So Sean suddenly realized that he wanted to knock on his head, but actually forgot about this. When he first saw the script, he had already understood that in a sense, this script can also be regarded as using science fiction to describe a dark youth story.
This way, it will be much easier to analyze characters, and it will be easier and more close to the feelings of characters that the audience needs and can understand than from a science fiction perspective. I have to thank women for their emotional thinking, and Sean and others are bound by rational thinking.
However, even so, various problems will inevitably arise during shooting. His understanding is not necessarily the director's understanding, and it takes time to transform what is understood into actual effects. Therefore, when shooting a movie, many shots have to be shot repeatedly.
"Sorry, I let you cooperate for so long, Gina." After finally ending this scene, Sean said the heroine who played with him.
"It's okay, I happened to learn acting skills from you," Gina smiled, not taking it to heart. "You were really amazing just now, Sean, you can do the same method, no wonder you can get an Oscar nomination."
She blinked her eyes, looking very curious, and her handsome appearance was unique.
"Thank you, I'm just good at observing and summarizing," Sean smiled slightly, looking very modest. "In addition, he has good luck and the actors who act together are all actors with excellent acting skills, which allows me to perform, so I have achieved some results."
Chapter completed!
