Chapter 98: Blair the Witch II: Book of Shadows

   "How come there are two scripts?"

   The next day, watching the two scripts placed in front of her by Charlotte, Judy Foster was a little confused.

   "One is a new version of the sub-screen script of "Happy Death Day", with certain adjustments."

   Charlotte started to explain,

   "The other is a script called "Blair the Witch", which I received when I attended the celebration party of "Fatal Bend" in USC last time."

   "You plan to make this script into a movie later?"

   "No, you are going to make this script into a movie later!"

   "What!?"

   Charlotte’s words once again blinded Judy,

   "You received a script and plan to let me film it, why?"

   "To paint the skin!"

   Charlotte directly stated the reason that Judy could not refuse.

   "This is a very crude and terrible script. If I shoot it, it will be easy to complete, but I will definitely face overwhelming criticism afterwards."

   "So you don't shoot yourself, but let me do it!?"

   Judy looked at Charlotte with an irritating look, and the latter corrected it.

   "It is for you to shoot, but not as an actor or director, but as a producer."

"Producer!?"

"Yes."

   Charlotte pointed to the script of "Blair the Witch",

   "I wrote some simple instructions at the end of the script. You will understand what I mean after reading it."

"Yes?"

  The queen nodded noncommitantly, unfolded the script and read it.

  —This is the plan Charlotte and Charlize talked about yesterday.

   Regardless of whether Judy deceived them, Painted Skin, a monster monster, and even the Cthulhu who might have created Painted Skin, their current source of power is "The Silent Lamb."

   is the remaining fear after watching "The Silent Lamb".

   Invisible fear accumulates into invisible magic, which can be borrowed by related ghosts. And to eliminate this kind of ghost, one or two new movies, in Charlotte's view, is a good choice.

   come from the movie, go back to the movie.

   "The script of this movie is terrible!"

   Soon, Judy, who quickly browsed the script of "Blair the Witch", let out a sigh.

   "But, I probably understand what you mean-it's a terrible movie for the director, but not for the producer."

   "In terms of publicity, there is a lot of room for manipulation."

   Charlotte gave her own evaluation.

   "That's right."

   Judy also agrees with him,

   "However, why should I do this? Doing the propaganda operations that you have attached will also damage the credibility of my production company to a certain extent."

  ——Yes, Charlotte attached the original historical propaganda plan for this film that opened the era of internet viral marketing at the back of the script of "Blair the Witch".

   In summary, it is just one word.

saute! ! !

   Although in 1994, Internet promotion in North America is far worse than in 1999, viral marketing is unlikely.

   But on the other hand, the North American audience at this time has not yet experienced those fresh tricks, and they are still very simple and young.

   This opens up possibilities for hype.

  Especially, Charlotte also suggested that Judy take advantage of some real-life events, such as a thorough Viamers Valley case that was previously used by "Fatal Corner".

   It’s not difficult to fry the ancestors of the pseudo-documentary "Blair the Witch" in a circle like this, but the producers will definitely consume some credibility as a result.

  -After all, it was intended to be promoted under the guise of "This is a record of real events" as in the original history.

  Wait for the audience to find out that you shed their tears of flickering, but in the end it was only for the money in their pockets...

   This will definitely damage the credibility of the producer.

  Judy Foster, as an old river and lake who has been in Hollywood since he was a child, it is not surprising to see this. And Charlotte is confident that she can persuade her:

   "It does damage some credibility or credibility. But the question is, who did it damage?"

   Charlotte’s words made Judy realize,

   "You mean, highlight the actors and directors in the hype, and dilute the existence of the producers? This is a way, but for the directors and actors..."

   "That's why I don't know how to make this movie!"

   Charlotte shrugged her shoulders, with a very indifferent look.

   "For directors and actors who are already well-known, making this film may indeed damage their credibility. But for newcomers who are just entering the industry and very young, this is not the case."

   "Even if young newcomers receive some stigma as a result, they will succeed in opening a career path in the future. For them, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages."

   Judy wants to understand,

   "Do you want me to go directly to the person who wrote this script to make this movie?"

   She pointed to the author's name written on the script--

   Daniel Merrick.

   "He is now a freshman in USC. With your means, it is easy to control."

   In Charlotte's view, for Daniel Merrick, shooting "Blair the Witch" is indeed more pros than cons.

   Although deceiving the audience may bring some credibility decline, but the success of the film has left a deep impression on the major film and television companies is real.

   With the trust of these investors and distributors, after a few years of silence, after the limelight has passed, there is no problem in launching their own new movies. After all, audiences are forgetful.

   In fact, Daniel Merrick in the original history took this route. It is a pity that his level of director is really average, except for his debut "Blair the Witch", other works are not very popular.

   However, even so, this guy is actually on the fast track of career development.

   After all, even Charlotte, because of some strange factors, was able to hold the guide tube in his early 30s, and he would be considered young among directors.

   When you are in your 20s, you can even stand out when you are still in college. What can be dissatisfying?

   For the actors involved, this principle is also the same.

  Judy Foster also understands this, so she no longer has to worry about the director and the actors. After all, she knows from the script that the film "Blair the Witch" is not difficult to shoot. The only trouble is the publicity.

   "In this case, the movie itself is fine. But what did you mean by "for painting the skin"?"

   Now, the lady queen is most concerned about this matter.

   And Charlotte, it’s been a long time since she asked this question,

   "Just as it means, when the movie you supervised is released, I can use magic to let you get power from the audience's fear. And this power can temporarily suppress Painted Skin and slow down his birth."

"Is that right?"

"certainly!"

--no.

   Charlotte’s words are a lie.

  Here, there is only one reason why he used the script of "Blair the Witch" and handed it over to Judy Foster——

  He is testing.

  Although he has made his own speculation that the person's paper that may have triggered the incident should still be in the hands of Judy Foster, Charlotte lacks evidence after all.

   And let Judy produce "Blair the Witch", two months later, he will be able to obtain sufficient evidence ~www.readwn.com~ After all, this film is really easy to shoot, and it can be completed in a few days if it is faster. Coupled with the hype, two months of release is more than enough.

  Once the film is released, Charlotte will be able to judge the true relationship between her and Painted Skin by observing the power changes of Judy and Painted Skin——

   If there is no change in the power of the paint skin, it means that Charlotte's guess is wrong. Judy Foster is really just an unfortunate victim, as she herself said.

   But if the power of Painted Skin increases, it will be the opposite, indicating that the book is really in Judy's hands, and even Painted Skin comes from the dark side of Miss Shadow Queen's heart.

   Otherwise, why would the power of fear gathered by Judy through Blair the Witch be absorbed by Painted Skin that has nothing to do with this movie?

   Unless there is a closer connection between the two, which is Charlotte's inference.

  ——As for the power of painting skin, Charlotte is not worried.

   Sometimes, stronger monsters are easier to deal with, because they will forget to escape because of their strength.

   just--

   "Is this method too roundabout? Isn't there an easier way? For example, directly invading Judy's heart or something?"

   When he explained this step to Charlize yesterday, the girl's reaction was like this.

   "Yes, yes, but my mana is not that powerful!"

   Charlotte is also very depressed,

   "And if we don't use magic, we have no means to open her mouth forcibly in the face of a big coffee like Judy Foster!"

  ——Especially the other party is still an acting master!

   Looking at Judy Foster in front of her, Charlotte added another sentence in her heart.
