Chatty Hollywood

After the Saturn Award, the promotional trailer for "Guillotine Valley" caused quite a stir.

On the one hand, this is borrowed from the popularity of the Saturn Award.

On the other hand, it's also because the trailer for "Dropped Head" is really good.

Although it cannot be said that the best-looking pictures are in the trailer, Charlotte edited it in a very dark and grotesque style, with the horrible and domineering headless horseman...

"This is really a movie suitable for Halloween!"

After watching the replay of the trailer recorded by her father, Emily couldn't help but sigh.

At the Saturn Awards ceremony last night, the little girl was still regretting that "Happy Death Day" did not win the honor of best horror movie, but when she returned home, she found that the TV trailer of "Gulf of the Dead" had actually been released. NS.

Fortunately, his dad always has a hobby of video recording at any time while watching TV, which made Emily not miss watching the trailer.

"However, generally this kind of TV trailer will not be played only once, so there is actually no need to worry..."

Emily thought to herself. She thinks this trailer is very good, dark, mysterious, grotesque, scary...

Well, these are the styles that Emily prefers. However, what made the little girl even more concerned about at this time was a woman in a light blue dress who appeared in the trailer——

"Is this the weird ghost lady in "Fatal Bend"?"

The image of Alexis at the time made Emily remember deeply, she even cursed her secretly because of fear. But this time, the other party's image has changed dramatically-

"Although it is still very mysterious, that terrible woman can give a mother-like gentleness..."

Emily suddenly felt that the world was a bit unreal.

In fact, the little girl didn't know that the scenes related to Alexis in "Driftwood" were actually made up after the fact.

No way, so many people were staring at the official shooting. If Charlotte let Charlize and Alexis switch directly, it would really be a big change.

And if possible, Charlotte didn't want to reveal the secrets of the spell.

——So, she chose to let Alexis play again when she made a make-up shot afterwards.

After the adjustment of Cthulhu Disguise, no one could see that Alexis's appearance was actually very similar to Charlize.

The re-shooting went smoothly, but when the re-shooting was over and Alexis left, when Charlotte told everyone that she was the technical master of the Ghost Party Studio, the old gun and Addison Young were a little confused. .

"So, you mean that the beautiful woman who can be a celebrity just now is actually a programmer? Are the scouts in Los Angeles blind?"

Well, because of Alexis, I think the world is not real. Emily is not the only one...

********

In short, thanks to the east wind of the Saturn Award, the publicity work of "Guillotine Valley" is in full swing, and even the marginal role of Alexis has attracted a lot of attention.

This makes Judy Foster and Andrew Kevin Walker two producers very happy.

In contrast, Charlotte is a lot depressed. After all, although he is also a producer, the director’s job is more in post-production——

Although he doesn't work overtime every day in 996, his job is by no means like the other two, as long as he gives orders every day.

"However, during Halloween, it should be no problem for us to catch up!"

While drinking a strong bitter coffee, Charlotte calculated the progress of post-production there,

"The only troublesome thing is the two sets of special effects that were finally subcontracted to Industrial Light and Magic..."

——In the end, the two sets of special effects that were not suitable for the magical rendering were handed over to the well-known Industrial Light and Magic Company to complete.

As a well-known computer special effects company that has produced "Star Wars", the technical level of Industrial Light and Magic is still guaranteed. However, their charges are also very "guaranteed"——

"They shouldn't delay the progress, but the cost is just..."

The old gun on the side also sighed. At this time, he somewhat agreed with Charlotte's thoughts.

Indeed, if you often shoot special effects movies, having a special effects studio is a good choice.

In fact, although it looks similar to a leather bag company, the Ghost Party Studio is also considered a special effects studio.

However, the work of the studio is completely supported by the special technology obtained by Charlotte and Alexis, and lacks manpower. So when you encounter a picture that cannot be processed by a special technology, you have to subcontract.

Of course, this is the understanding of the old gun.

But even if Charlotte knew that he was using magic rendering, not computer special effects at all, he felt that it was necessary to add some staff who could do normal work to the studio.

Especially, Charlotte recently pondered a special plan...

"In short, don't care about the future, get the late stage of "Dropped Head" as soon as possible!"

Charlotte made up his mind.

After all, this movie is related to whether he can truly be promoted to a first-line commercial film director...

In fact, ordinary commercial film directors rarely get promoted to the top with just three films. This is of course a question of qualifications, but more, it is that the directors can't guarantee that every movie they make is profitable.

Like celebrities, filming failed works, directors will also fall in value.

What's more, unlike actors who focus on acting, the director must be responsible for the success or failure of the film, even if it is a director whose power is mostly blocked by the producer.

In other words, the success or failure of a movie actually has a greater impact on the director.

The continuous explosive success of the two low-cost horror films "Fatal Turn" and "Happy Death Day" ~www.readwn.com~ has made Charlotte a profit-making expert in the minds of many investors.

In this case, if it can be regarded as the big production of "Guillotine Valley", he can also successfully control it and get a good box office, then he can completely establish an undefeated in the eyes of the common investors in Hollywood. Golden body.

——Faith is a thing, although many times it is illusory, but once you master it, you have the strongest weapon.

This is true for wars, so are stocks, and so are movies.

For a successful commercial film director, what is it that supports his position?

Talent?

It is possible.

But on the other hand, do those literary and artistic film directors have no talent?

Woody Allen is known as one of the few cultural figures in Hollywood. He is absolutely talented to reflect the sense of culture in movies.

But if it is a commercial blockbuster, few filmmakers choose him to be the director.

Filmmakers would rather choose commercial film directors who are often criticized by critics, such as Spielberg or even Michael Bay.

What really supports the position of a commercial film director is his past box office results and the confidence that investors have in him because of these achievements.

And "Decapitated Valley" is a key step for Charlotte to establish investors' confidence in him.

but--

"Why does Paramount want to release the premiere of "Dale of the Deadhead" in the UK?"

Seeing the message from Andrew Kevin Walker, Charlotte was lost in thought.

PS1: "Halloween" series, also known as "Moonlight Panic", this is a horror film series with many sequels, you can check it out if you are interested. PS2: Actually, everyone says that the blast shell is the artist. After all, "art is blast"!
