Legendary Hollywood Director

Chapter 480: Return of the Golden Ball

Under the setting sun, Nicolas Cage skillfully approached Samuel and greeted several actors in the crew to go for a drink.

Today, eight or nine scenes were shot in the supermarket. The one-day shooting plan was successfully completed, and the working time of the crew was close to eight hours.

As long as this speed can be maintained, Lehman believes that it will take another five to six weeks to complete the filming of the film.

Therefore, when there was ample time, he did not ask the crew to work overtime.

In Hollywood, or in other words the entire United States, under the protection of various guilds for members, it is basically impossible to work overtime unconditionally.

So, working overtime is still a serious issue.

Even in some Western countries, in order to limit the exploitation of employees by companies, overtime taxes are deliberately imposed.

And if it is to make Americans work overtime, in addition to dealing with the guild behind the staff, negotiating and granting subsidies that are satisfactory to all parties, and cannot be forced.

After a busy day, the crew sealed up the filming equipment and basically left the studio.

Lyman, on the other hand, organizes the shot by himself and makes some marks, which will be used later in editing.

Next to her, Eva was still thinking about the scene with the script.

For her, acting in a non-positive role is still a lot of pressure. If she can't hold the show, it's impossible not to talk about her because Lyman is the director.

Or rather, Ryman will be a little more strict because of this.

So, even during her rest time, she would figure it out by herself.

After all, there are several powerful actors in the crew, and when something goes wrong, her mistakes are the ones that hold back the filming.

Lehmann was quite satisfied with Eva's attitude, she would not ask for any preferential treatment in the crew, and worked hard to move forward.

Then, with the increase of footage, Lehmann had another job at night, which was to start the rough cut of the first edition together, often working late into the night.

Otherwise, the most tiring person in the crew is always the director.

There are too many similar trivial facts.

After a few days of running in, the filming progress of "The Mist" suddenly accelerated. At the same time, it was also divided into two groups, one for the main line and the other for the branch line.

"Cut," Lehman stuck his head out from behind the director's monitor. This was the scene where religious fanatics, under Eva's command, wanted to **** Cage's son for sacrifice and quell the wrath of Death.

"Who...why are you laughing while hiding behind? Is it appropriate for you to show a smile on such a serious occasion?"

This is not good for filming group scenes. The quality of the extra actors we recruited is uneven, not to mention the laughing scene. Some people do not move very well.

And one small mistake can ruin the whole shot.

As soon as Lehman spoke, the assistant director decisively criticized and readjusted his position.

After a while, all the leading actors who finished their make-up also entered into their own state, and they did it again.

Cage hugged his son, facing the surging public opinion, with a gesture of swearing to defend himself.

And the little actor is less than 6 years old and looks very cute.

I believe that after the release of this episode, the audience will be more angry with religious fanatics. After all, such a child will be launched to live sacrifice, no matter how he thinks, he will definitely hate it.

In this way, Eva's head was shot to death by a cold gun, and it would be a climax of applause.

Then there is the ironic scene of making birds and beasts scattered.

The props group rented a real pistol—in the United States, real guns are cheaper than imitation ones.

Put blank ammunition in the pistol, and after a few tries, it was completely OK, and then said to a group speaker: "The moment Miss Eva finishes speaking her lines and turns her head, you will take out the gun and shoot. A camera will be aimed at you, you must be careful and quick in your actions, understand?"

Qun Yan nodded happily.

"Will there be any danger?" Lyman asked.

"No, Miss Eva has a blood bag hidden on her body. When you hear the sound, just break it, it will be fine."

Everyone resets, the board of the scene record is gently buckled, and the camera instantly captures Eva and the group performer.

"Hand over that child, we only want that child."

The blind followers behind him also pressed towards the child as if going mad.

"boom!"

A shot rang out.

The crowd suddenly quieted down, and then they all fled.

Only the surrounded Eva fell to the ground clutching her chest...

"Okay, it's over."

……

……

The filming of "The Mist" was completed very quickly, and the two-month shooting plan that was formulated might not take that long.

The reason why the shooting went so smoothly was mainly due to the wonderful performances of Cage and Samuel.

These two, a best actor and an Oscar nominee for Best Supporting Actor, were soft-hearted, not to mention that the characters didn't have a particularly complicated personality change, and they didn't have too much pressure to perform, and they even had to put on some performances.

As for Eva, the simple scenes are not bad. I have the experience of acting in several works in the past few years, but when I encounter a few powerful actors in the opposite scenes, the number of ng starts to increase. Compared with Cage, etc. People, as an actress, Eva still has a long way to go.

However, she is willing to work hard, but she can barely maintain the presence of the camera, so as not to be overshadowed by a few actors, and even in some scenes, there are still very bright performances, which can form a certain degree of pressure on Cage.

This is not an easy thing to do.

After all, Cage has been acting for more than 20 years. He was born in Coppola, a family of performers since he was a child, and he started his career as an actor early on.

"OK, I'll be here today, and the crew will have a holiday tomorrow and the next two days." After the last scene was over, the crew members cheered and began to quickly clean up the studio.

"I wish you good luck tomorrow~www.readwn.com~ Producer Blake ran over and said.

Everyone knows that Lehmann is on vacation because he is going to attend the Golden Globes dinner.

The Golden Globe Awards do not have professional voting judges, so the difficulty of public relations is very small, and the meaning of dividing the cake is even greater.

Almost a famous film crew can get a nomination and join in the fun.

As for "Million Dollar Baby", relying on its excellent reputation, the film has a high number of screenings at the box office. It has broken the average score of 15,000 US dollars in a single venue for two consecutive weeks, and has been nominated for Best Drama, Best Actress, and Best Actress. Five awards for Best Supporting Actor, Best Director and Best Score.

Although the Golden Globe Awards are too subjective, they are purely entertainment, and the gold content is close to nothing, but what should be paid should be paid.

Because some of the organizers are Oscar judges, they can get a good impression. That's all.

At night, Lyman drove back to his home in Beverly Hills.

Park the car and take Eva upstairs.

The girl was tired from the journey, and wriggled her soft body like a caterpillar a few times, but she still arched into Laiman's arms.

"I told you not to come back, you don't believe it." Laiman squeezed the girl's waist with a smile.

"But am I your female companion?" Eva raised her head and said.

Another night of ecstasy...
