Chapter 81 Low EQ and Comrcial Movies
"Oh, Roland, what are you doing standing here?"
Just as Roland was staring at the cast list, feeling overwheld by the luck of being able to hook up with Robert Zeckis in the ti loop, a familiar voice suddenly ca from behind.
Not only that, when he turned his head to check, his right shoulder also sank, and a head poked out from the left side.
"I've been looking for you for a long ti, and I thought you didn't co! Are you avoiding ?"
"Congratulations, "Ho Alone" is a hit. Your road to fa is much smoother than mine."
That's right, the first guy who got close to Roland after joining the group was naturally Charlie Cosmo, who had t once but gave Roland a lot of help. When this little guy wearing a peaked cap found Roland , and rushed forward without hesitation, that kind of familiarity, even more sophisticated than Jas.
"Ouch!" After seeing the other party's smiling face, Roland complained in a half-joking tone, then raised his elbow in a friendly way, and punched the other party's chest very rudely, "Charles, I need to Avoiding you?"
"If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be able to enter the crew of "Terminator 2"."
"If you didn't join the crew, what would you do with the announcent of "Ho Alone"?"
"The box office records are credited to you! If the filming schedule is not too full, I would have invited you to my house a long ti ago..."
Roland doesn't blush when he tells a lie now.
What does it an that the shooting schedule is too full?
He has been playing at ho for nearly a month, okay? !
But these, Charles doesn't know!
And after hearing Roland's excited words, Charles, who originally used filming as a way to make friends, smiled even more, "Don't talk about "Terminator 2", I don't want to film anyway. ..."
"However, it is okay to go to your house as a guest."
"I saw the entertainnt news earlier, it said that you are taking care of your sister at ho recently?"
"Oh, I really envy you."
"The three sisters of the Olsen family are so cute, they seem to be much more comfortable than that naughty ghost in my family..."
Yes, in this family of several children, Charles naturally has a younger sister.
However, even if he has a younger sister, compared with Arica's youngest daughter, the gap is still a bit big.
As the doctor sang in "Red Rose": "The unattainable is always in turmoil."
In Arica, where it is possible to organize a group to steal a baby if you raise your arms and shout, the charm of the Olsen sisters is unstoppable.
Taking the three Olsen sisters into the topic, they can talk about more things.
However, before they chatted for a while, soone discovered the two people who were fishing in corners.
tiptoed to behind them, then jumped out, clapping Charles' shoulders with both hands.
When the sudden sound and the sudden touch appeared at the sa ti, the two squatting there suddenly trembled.
Turning around, Charles, who was still pouring bitter water on Roland and telling how difficult his sister was, imdiately rolled his eyes, looked at the girl behind him with resentful eyes, and said helplessly, "Shit! Gwen! You Are you trying to scare to death?"
"Oh, Charles, don't you forget who scared last ti."
Complaining words can't win the other party's sympathy at all. Not only that, after seeing the familiar helpless face, the girl turned her eyes rcilessly, looked at Roland beside him, and said with a smile full of surprise: "Roland - Ellen? It's you?"
"I'm Gwyneth, nice to et you."
"I've seen Ho Alone, and you did a great job."
The sudden unexpected sound really startled Roland.
While turning his head to look around, he was still pondering in his heart, which blind guy dared to provoke him and Charles—you know, this is Spielberg's crew!
After revealing their identities, no one from the outside world ca to provoke them, so why would there be people in the group who are stupid enough to make trouble for them?
But when Roland saw the troublemaker's face, that familiar figure imdiately made him swallow back the doubts in his heart.
Because the only guy who can be so skinny in the crew is Spielberg's goddaughter, Gwyneth Paltrow.
And her appearance is indeed not a bad luck, right?
"Hi Gwen, nice to et you."
Although the pleasant chat with Charles was interrupted by the other party, Roland didn't care about these details.
Anyway, before the filming starts, chatting with anyone is just small talk, and it doesn’t matter if there is one more person or one less person.
However, after seeing Roland's slightly formulaic smile, Pepper, who ca to say hello, squatted down familiarly. Not only that, but she also looked at Roland with interest.
Just as Roland was puzzled by her rudeness, a voice without any barriers ca out of her mouth.
"Oh, Roland, I didn't expect you to be a little different from Kevin in the movie."
"You are cuter on the screen, but your current outfit seems to have nothing to do with being cute."
"Could it be because you don't want to play a child? Want to grow up?"
"But I think it seems better for you to be filming a sequel!"
"Dad doesn't have anything suitable for you here, since this is the case, why don't you seize the opportunity in front of you?"
All right…
Roland, who originally wanted to smile and deal with it, decided to take back his previous thoughts.
The appearance of the small pepper is indeed a sign of trouble.
Roland thought that this little pepper who jumped forward and greeted him friendly was different from the mother he saw through the screen in his previous life, but what he didn't expect was that the little pepper of this era was indeed quite juicy, completely It ets the conditions of "Playboy" wanting to secretly shoot, and this EQ is not the sa as what the outside world said. It is only after being in love and suffering a blow that it becos zero.
Comnting on other people's dressing style as soon as they co up, and directly asking him to seize the opportunity in front of him in an adult tone, this kind of behavior is really bad.
If Anne Hathaway is a person who thinks everyone in Arica is pretending, then Pepper Gwyneth Paltrow is a person who thinks everyone in Arica is fake. You know, in Roland In the entertainnt reports I read before, "Star" weekly listed her as the first of the twenty most hated celebrities.
Of course, the reason why people hate her is not because of so water queen.
When the list appeared, more than ten years had passed since the Shuihou incident, and in this case, the reason why people still hate her was because what she said in public was so ugly.
Just like Emperor Hui of Jin who said 'Why not eat minced at', Xiaojiali is the typical spoiled rich second generation.
Unlike the forr host who publicly stated in the variety show that her monthly living expenses reached 700,000 yuan, Xiaojiali's behavior is even more popular, taking pictures to post on Monts, and taking her dog on a private jet What she wants to do is to directly publish a book to show off her wealth. Not only that, she also exposes Diss's own ex in front of the dia, Diss Scarlett has big breasts, and performs facial liposuction for her three-month-old daughter, etc. blah blah blah, these are her feats...
It is no exaggeration to say that compared with the queen of water, those stupid things she did are what make others really hate.
And Roland thought that this guy's attitude might be better after having this identity of his own, but he didn't expect—
Forget it, forget it, don't care about this guy with zero EQ.
In Roland's opinion, maybe only the guy who said 'Shaq did it too' can kill Pepper in terms of slander.
With the ntality of not being as fussy as a silly beep, Roland had an awkward chat with the other party, and then found an excuse to learn, and left the scene directly; thinking that such a person could directly throw the Batman book on the bus As soon as he left resolutely, Roland had no idea of continuing to contact her. Now he would rather make a mistake in front of Spielberg and be scolded by the other party than communicate with the guy who can't talk. First, he was upset, and second, he was afraid. I can't control my fist.
What's more, there is no one who gets mixed up with the little chili pepper.
After Ben Affleck broke up with Pepper, he fell in love with Jennifer Lopez, and then went all the way to the end; after Brad Pitt divorced Pepper, he went through marriage, divorce, and remarriage, although the box office remained the sa , but the awards are faulty.
Because of this, for his own future, Roland naturally wanted to stay away.
Of course, after throwing Pepper to Charles, the next crew mbers t for the first ti, and it was quite pleasant.
Julia Roberts did what she said, and gave Roland a copy of the director's cut videotape of "Pretty Woman". Not only that, she also kindly signed an autograph for Roland.
And Dustin Hoffman's five-year-old son is already a fan of Roland. When Roland approached, the little guy excitedly wanted to take a photo with him; facing Max's request, Roland naturally would not refuse. After posing the POS and greeted with a smiling face, Dustin, who was in charge of pressing the shutter, laughed and recorded all this.
As for Robin Williams?
This guy who has a very good relationship with Director Howard naturally couldn't disappoint Roland. After Roland wrote the blessing of "May you go to the top" in the autograph book that Roland carried with him, he asked Dustin for a cara and raised his arms high. Looking up at the sky at a forty-five-degree angle, he left a permanent mark on the huge set.
People without brains will not last long.
And the guys who can get to their level are basically human beings.
Everyone (except Pepper) knows that Roland is rising very fast now. If the next "Terminator 2" explodes, even without Spielberg's relationship, they can still sit at the sa table Eating, chatting, and farting, but now, it's just bringing this ti closer without limit.
In this case, giving convenience to Roland is giving convenience to himself.
After all, no one can guarantee that he will not be needed in the future.
In fact, as long as there are no contradictions, the act of forming a good relationship is common everywhere.
Not to ntion, they are from the sa camp!
After going around, Roland touched Spielberg again.
After a simple greeting, he quickly picked up the agenda and read it.
Since his "sturdy" deeds in the "Ho Alone" crew and "Terminator 2" crew have already spread throughout the circle, everyone from the top to the bottom didn't feel that Roland's behavior was overstepped, let alone Think he is playing tricks.
What happened to Robert Zeckis's apprentice seeing a director?
After being taught by Chris Columbus and Jas Caron, how could he not read it?
In this way, it beca Roland's daily job to follow the crew with the schedule in hand.
...
The narrative structure of "Captain Hook" is actually very simple. It belongs to old wine in new bottles. Although the story is subverting tradition, the sensational line is actually very young. But as a comrcial film, Spielberg obviously knows what the audience wants to see. Even though the narrative of the script is very procrastinating, with too many descriptions of Peter Pan's midlife crisis, and it doesn't advance the plot in a way like Indiana Jones, but the shooting thod is not a problem, plus the crew The mbers are all bigwigs with rich shooting experience, so the project is advancing, which is really fast.
What is assembly line operation?
Watching Spielberg do Robin and Dustin, that's assembly line work.
The front is on the set, and the script is on the back. After the front set is finished, the back will go directly.
After all the units were in place, the photographers and actors started to move. Everyone knew what they should do, and they could pass through at most three. The kind of behavior that is not NG, not entangled, and not deadlocked is really the sa as Jas Caron. , there is a huge gap.
Why take more shots for later selection?
There is no such thing at all, okay!
Under the full concentration, taking one shot three tis is actually the best state of an actor.
After all, human energy is limited, and there is a limit to passion for new things; if the director makes the actors shoot the sa scene repeatedly, unless there is a real problem with the actor's performance, otherwise, it will be very frustrating for the actor positive.
Don’t say anything, act it out a few more tis, we can pick the most perfect picture when the ti cos.
There is absolutely no need for this when making comrcial films.
"It's not about competing for awards. For a comrcial film, it's enough if the acting skills are above the standard line."
"There is no need to make it the sa as an epic film, let the actors find the best state and dedicate a crazy performance."
"If you really shoot one by one slowly, it will only increase the production cost of the film, and this behavior is extrely detrintal to the director, because you make this kind of comrcial film to make money. As long as the selling point can be perfectly presented, other things Just keep it normal, don't go too deep into it..."
Facing Spielberg's own comrcial film shooting theory, to be honest, Roland was actually a little confused...
Because, more than a month ago, when he was filming "Terminator 2", the truck driver was still emphasizing excellence with him.
"But... Director, Jas has been reshooting, reshooting, and reshooting..."
Taking advantage of the gap between the sets of the crew, Roland, who had been watching from the sidelines, raised a question in his heart, "Jas said that he wanted to find the most perfect picture, and he did the sa. Not much."
"Really? Then do you rember that when Jas was filming, he liked to retake those scenes?"
To be honest, even though he knew for a long ti that his grandson in the crew was like a book with a hundred thousand whys, but when Spielberg really got in touch with it, he realized that Roland's problems were really special!
However, compared with those naive academics, the questions he asked are actually quite interesting.
A series of questions such as the use of the lens, the division of roles, and the introduction of the picture are all supported by examples, which are different from the guy who ca out of the ivory tower. Most of the ti, it’s not that Roland doesn’t know what this technique is called, but he I don't understand how the cara movent of various shots is related to the up and down shots, and when it cos to editing, he will derive such a shooting and editing, whether the audience will look comfortable, that kind of guided substitution Whether it will make the audience's nerves tense or relieved, and in this case, is it possible for the audience to appear ntally exhausted or bored...
The content Roland asked is actually the actual application of movies, and how to combine movie stories with business, this kind of thing is Spielberg's housekeeping skill, or in other words, this kind of psychological research is actually Jewish. The foundation of helping to establish yourself and Hollywood, because only by embracing business first can you win the favor of investors, and once investors are willing to vote for you, it will be much easier whether it is to win prizes or sell movies.
so…
What Spielberg taught was actually the theory he had learned from Lucas.
Or, he taught Robert Zeckis, Chris Columbus, George Lucas taught Ron Howard, and communicated with Brian Palr, the guy who eats.
"Uh..." Under Spielberg's stare, Roland thought for a few seconds, and then replied: "The scenes that Jas likes to retake most are actually so fighting scenes. Compared with shooting narrative shots, the fighting scenes he Take more..."
"Of course... it could be that we're doing a good cut of the action?"
The stinky words made Spielberg scratch his head with a smile. He didn't comnt on Roland's acting skills, but went straight to the point, saying: "Yes, the fighting scene has been reshot many tis, this is the embodint of the selling point..."
"The movie "Terminator 2" was originally an action thriller. As long as it is played beautifully, it can keep the audience in their seats."
"Jas's large number of remakes is to strengthen the selling points of his movies."
“You said it yourself, he doesn’t reshoot a lot of his own narrative footage.”
"Why?"
"Because whether there is drama in the actor's eyes, it doesn't matter at all. As long as the actor can fully show an emotion, then the narrative shot can pass, just like Arnold, ruthless, is his label, wearing a pair of sunglasses The face is enough, but what about Linda? Shanna Connor, as long as you show your hatred for Arnold and your motherly love, that’s fine. As for you, I don’t need to emphasize things like motherly love and fatherly love, right? I have read his script, if I rember correctly, at the end of the movie, Jas should ask you to cry, as long as you can show your reluctance and fascination with T-800 when it left, this scene will pass..."
"If an actor performs well, he earns money. If he doesn't perform well, it's not too late to call Nogood."
"The most important thing in making a comrcial film is to highlight the selling point. Just like the day you auditioned, the selling point of Peter Pan's son is innocence. If there is no such thing, it is really impossible to act. As long as the selling point is determined, even if the actor's acting skills are not up to the standard Robert De Niro, it doesn’t matter if it’s not like Robin Williams, it’s not like Dustin Hoffman.”
"As long as you stay on the level line, you'll be fine."
Okay...
Roland Buddha.
Although he has always known that comrcial films do not emphasize acting skills, and a guy like Dwayne Johnson who habitually shakes his eyebrows can also perform well in movies, but—he really doesn’t know that these big directors also make comrcial films in this way.
However, it is normal to think about it.
It’s like Robert Zeckis’s Forrest Gump.
Even though this movie won six awards including Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Actor, but—
Still dusted like a dog by the original book.
Because Robert Zeckis revised the original work, he chose to embrace business.
In the "Star Wars" prequel trilogy, Hayden Christensen, who played with Natalie Portman, is recognized as one of the most chemically unreactive screen couples in history. This is the most failed casting of Star Wars, but even so, it does not detract from the greatness of "Star Wars", because their selling point is not this screen couple at all.
Grab the selling point, and then desperately **** in, as for the others?
The big difference is not bad, you can pass the level in about 70 minutes.
Regarding the experience taught by Spielberg, Roland instantly felt that he could shoot with a dog on the director's seat.
But after a while, he reacted.
Even if you tie yourself, you can't shoot, because the speed mastered by these great directors is sothing mysterious and mysterious.
Because only they know what screen can be used, what screen is good, and what screen is the best...
And wanting to distinguish this is much more difficult than learning how to shoot!
‘Maybe this is the difference between Ron Howard and Chris Columbus and Robert Zeckis? '
‘The first two learned the basics, while the latter learned how to distinguish. '
‘Basic plate is the foundation of embracing business, and only by distinguishing levels can you step into the door of art? '
Although this conclusion made Roland sigh, he didn't have a headache.
Because he understands what it ans to be an actor and a good guide.
Can you beco a director if you act well?
No…
It’s not enough for you to act well, you also have to know how to play other roles.
Otherwise, there will only be a situation where the lead is not good.
Directors are like chefs. They want to mix various ingredients together to make a delicious al. How to find the taste of the public will test their skills and talents. A director who can only tell the inner world may be a good director , but in the vast majority of cases, only those directors who can satisfy the masses can stand at the top.
Art is actually a minority culture, but it can also be a mass spirit.
After experiencing first-hand what the teacher taught in his previous life, Roland, who had been with three major directors, finally understood what he was missing.
Is it hard work?
No... that's the craftsman.
What he lacks is actually his own distinct imprint.
For George Lucas, the space opera represented by "Star Wars" is his distinctive mark; for Jas Caron, the crazy pursuit of technology and visual effects is his distinctive mark ; For Peter Jackson, the fascinating world of Middle-earth is his distinctive mark; as for Spielberg?
Maybe—
Childlike innocence is his distinctive mark, right?
He knows what the audience wants to see.
Because those things were all dreams he had longed for.
And dreaming of sothing like this is a bit out of reach for Roland...
Just when Roland was thinking about what he liked, Spielberg, who had already co to the monitor, suddenly called him, "Roland, co here, and teach Charles how to act this scene!"
What?
Roland, whose thoughts were interrupted, raised his head suddenly. When he cast his eyes on Spielberg, the leisurely figure leaning on the director's chair made him stunned for a few seconds, and after he reacted, a kind of joy spontaneously erged , suddenly appeared...
Okay...
It doesn't matter if you can't find a clear mark for the ti being.
It’s okay to start with craftsn first!
He is only eleven years old, why should he worry about that speed!
Let’s play the role of the child first, and then talk about other things!
Anyway, with these guys around, he has countless examples to watch.
And after these quantities have accumulated to a certain level, experience alone can push everything flat!
If you can't be Dugu Qiubai, you can practice as a sweeping monk!
Because of this, when Roland returned to his senses and ran to Spielberg with a smile on his face, he picked up the script and beca more confident, "Director, this baseball scene?" Compliant, asked directly.
"Hmm." Spielberg has seen Roland a lot.
Students, after seeing the gap between themselves and the teacher, there will be a gap more or less. At this ti, let them try it themselves, and they will know where the gap is.
After being able to accurately locate, it will not be like a fly, tossing around indiscriminately.
What's more, it's Sony's money, not his own, so don't be afraid!
"You see how to play the baseball ga, and then tell Charles."
"Take the guide tube by yourself, don't ask any questions, and talk about it after you finish shooting."
Such a relaxed environnt made the two leading actors who were resting and waiting shook their heads...
have to…
The old Jewish gang has appeared again!
Don't say that Spielberg asked Roland to shoot, whether this behavior is in compliance.
For the Jewish Gang, they can shoot whoever they want!
You know, when Francis Coppola was not famous, he dared to let George Lucas, who studied behind his ass, shoot at will in a movie invested by Warner. people!
In the situation where they could be fired at any ti, they all ca wild, and now...
No one can stop them.
What's more, the Jewish gang has always led apprentices like this.
There is no better way than teaching while burning money...
have opinions?
Any comnts fired !
If I can find soone to take over, then I will lose!
