77. Chapter 77 Adjustment
"Ah sneezing!" Sean sneezed, then rubbed his nose, and sucked harder.
Vancouver is not too cold now. He has been to New Zealand in July, but Los Angeles is indeed warmer. When I suddenly came here, I was still out in the woods. It was normal to sneeze twice.
The idea that Sean thought of avoiding reporters was to let the crew go out in advance. Those guys could find out what movie he was shooting now, but they might not be able to find out where the crew went out in the outdoor scene. As long as the producer is strictly prohibited from revealing it. Based on the current situation, Sean has begun to affect the production progress because he cannot meet the reporter directly. The producer is likely to do this, as long as the agent comes forward to communicate.
In addition, as planned, it was almost time to go out for a location, so after a quick discussion, the crew brought a large group of people north to Canada.
The reason I chose to take outdoor scenes in Vancouver is that the cost of shooting in Canada is relatively cheaper. Moreover, over the years, the two countries in North America have been almost integrated, and it is quite convenient to enter and exit the country.
"Prepare the position first." As the director's instructions, various departments and assistants began to get busy in front of the built cemetery, and then Huang pulled Sean aside.
"Listen to me, Sean, don't think so much. You just need to take out your usual state. If it really doesn't work, just write it in the script." He said.
Sean, who was supposed to go to move in person, immediately sighed. When filming "The Genius Ripley", he insisted on moving in person, and the same is true here. Interestingly, before this, many people praised him for his dedication, but after the scandal, it turned into hypocrisy in the whispers of some people. This is the human heart.
Sean didn't move now because he knew Huang was going to talk to him and what Huang was going to say. Even though he was mentally prepared, he couldn't help but sigh when he heard this.
Although he came to Vancouver, there were no reporters blocking outside the studio, his status still did not reply. There is no doubt that the things before were still affecting him, especially his anxiety about gains and losses, and his concerns about age issues being dug out by reporters, which would affect the movie and personal image.
Although he kept telling himself in his heart that even if he fell, he would just start over again, sometimes it would be difficult to have a second chance if he failed once. In addition to being isolated to a certain extent on the crew, Catherine continued to face him coldly. In addition to Garen, there were only a few people including Scott who could chat, which would have an impact on him.
After all, I still can't compare with those experienced big-name stars. Sean sighed in his heart. He knew all these problems and knew how to correct them, but it was not easy to know that it would be transformed into doing so. What's more, when I think of Naomi, I feel even more chaotic.
Because he was going out, Galen had to follow him. Because Galen wanted to follow him, no one was taken care of Pock and Lucy. Because Pock and Lucy were not taken care of, he could only find a way to entrust her.
This is the excuse for Sean to run to see her. Of course, she also had to add a bunch of text messages in facial texts and waited for so long in the streets outside - this was not an easy guy. In just over 20 minutes, at least three or four groups of black people passed by him. Sean was not as serious as racial discrimination, and had almost never been robbed. She also had several black friends in middle school, but like most Americans, she couldn't help but feel nervous when she encountered this situation.
Anyway, Sean finally entered Naomi's apartment, but the main purpose of that night was not to make her change her mind, but to break up, or to make a clear relationship.
Sean knew very well that at least for a long time, it was impossible for him to focus on a woman. If he was not very clear about this before, but after becoming an actor, some vague things became much clearer. Perhaps some people would say that it was because temptation was everywhere. Sean did not deny that there was this factor, but he knew more about it in his heart.
So, after saying "I'm sorry", he should have continued to make it clear, but Naomi sighed and blocked his words back.
Resentment, loss, helplessness, Naomi's sigh contained too many emotions, and Sean was involuntarily reminiscent of memories. The whole story of last year immediately emerged from his mind, making him speechless. Then, she began to talk about something else and asked him how he was on the crew of "The God of Death is Coming". His tone was light and there was no displeasure, as if the question before, and the question of whether he had sex with Gwyneth did not exist, Sean had to talk with him.
Then, they kept talking to the bed, doing nothing else, just sleeping together. When sleepy Naomi turned over, turned her back to him and shrank into his arms, pulled his hand over to his waist, and said vaguely, "I'm sleeping", Sean immediately realized that it was impossible for him to take the initiative to find out the relationship.
In fact, he was not very firm at first, and at that moment he understood why he was not firm. This scene was so familiar that it was impossible for him to forget it. So, his feelings for Naomi were actually similar to those when he saw Kate, but he didn't notice it at the beginning. Can he let go in this situation?
"What a distressing life." Sean, who was lying on the sofa, sighed.
"Is that?" Garen, who was sitting on the other side, put down the book, "I need to skip now, grab your collar and shout, 'When are you going to fall like this,' or 'Get up, soldier, your mission is not completed yet'?"
"Ha, maybe both are OK." Sean said lazily.
Then he regretted it because Galen jumped up directly, jumped in front of him, grabbed the collar and lifted it up, shaking violently while shouting in a somewhat sad tone: "When do you plan to fall like this?!"
Then he shouted again: "Get up, soldier, your mission has not been completed yet?!"
"Enough is enough!" Sean, who was shook his head and had to shout, "You guy..."
"Are you better now?" Garen finally let go of his hand and asked in a relaxed tone.
"Very good, very good. I saw a lot of elephants with small wings flying around me." Sean, who sat up, said angrily.
"This means you are still normal," Garen clapped his hands, "Frankly, Sean, I think I'm very lucky to see you so depressed, lost, and even helpless. Let me think about when you came this last time? Even a panic expression requires repeated shooting to pass. It's so surprising. I think I can be an actor."
"Indeed, I think the two words you shouted before were very imposing and emotional. Maybe I can say to the director and let you complete the filming of the later part instead of me?" Sean hummed half-teared.
"Happiness is coming," Garen turned his head and mocked without hesitation, "I can replace you at any time as long as you want."
"Okay, Garen," Sean couldn't help laughing, "Don't irritate me, I know what I'm doing?"
"Are you sure?" Garen asked seriously, and then laughed.
"Don't worry, I've been adjusting these days and it will be fine soon," Sean patted his shoulder, "Thank you."
"You're welcome, I'm also for myself. If you are fired by the crew, you will have no income. If you don't have income, you won't be able to pay me a salary. If you don't have salary, my plan will be extended infinitely." Galen spread his hands.
The two of them looked at each other and then laughed together. The advantage of having a best friend is that when you are in a low mood and when you feel confused, someone will try his best to cheer you up.
Well, although these things are annoying, if you really put them aside, they won’t affect much. Moreover, Vancouver is here, not Los Angeles, there are no paparazzi, only work. Since the crew promised him to go out in advance, he should also find a way to perform well. This is also his principle of being a person. As for some people intentionally or unintentionally excluding and ignoring it, it doesn’t matter.
And this also reminds Sean that he is still somewhat easily affected by the outside world. Although his two lives have made him have a mentality much higher than his peers, he is still a little far from being unsuspecting to favor and disgrace. It doesn’t matter, it’s better to work hard to train yourself. It’s better to find problems now than to find problems in the future.
The scene is actually very simple, that is, the funeral of a student who died on the flight, or some passages in the streets and community during the day. Then Huang then reshoots the plot of Tylie's previous episode in a street cafe. As early as the 1980s, many outdoor scenes were shot indoors, especially horror films, where 90% of the night scenes were completed in the studio.
Basically, as long as the night houses, forests, or warehouses appear in the movie, they are all sets built in the studio. With the development of technology, many daytime scenes can now be blocked with some curtains, and then the desired background is added in post-production. For example, the scenery of a certain street is very suitable for the director's idea, but the background requires New York, Chicago or even the White House. When shooting, the scenery in the camera and the streets are covered with green or blue curtains.
And after a few years, many cities that are all produced by CG will appear, and then the shooting time in the studio will be longer.
Of course, this does not mean that real-life shooting can be removed from the stage. External scenes are still necessary to a certain extent. Moreover, horror films with low budgets are sometimes more cost-effective than using CG to produce them, just like "The God of Death". The only problem is that the shots will be fragmented and complicated. If the actors are not in good condition, it will affect the shooting progress.
