[US Entertainment] Superstar

Chapter 256 Coordination and Cooperation

When taking the elevator downstairs to the studio, Eve was constantly thinking about the plot of the movie.

I don't know if I got in on it myself or what. The content in the script is far from the plot of the movie in Eve's memory. There is a big difference.

In the original time and space, only the beginning of the first part of "The Bourne" is consistent with the novel, and a large-scale adaptation was carried out later, such as Mary's identity. The first time Bourne met Mary was in the United States. embassy.

The script she is going to star in now is almost the same as the story of the novel, except that the inappropriate background of the times has been replaced.

The background of the novel is the Cold War period, and the background of the movie is set in 2000. Just like the event that Mary is going to attend now is the famous World Economic Forum in Davos, this clever combination with reality will make the audience feel like It's like watching a documentary, more real and believable.

It is impossible for the crew to actually go to Davos to find a group of economists and bigwigs for a meeting, but to conduct a simulation here in Zurich.

After getting out of the elevator, Eve saw various signs of the World Economic Forum. Maybe the crew has already contacted its headquarters, and they will go to shoot the exterior scenes of the headquarters to combine them skillfully, so that the audience will not see the flaws.

In the conference hall, the actor playing the cia killer is rehearsing with Matt Damon, and several cameramen carry the cameras on their shoulders or in their hands, and conduct shooting experiments from various angles.

The pictures captured in this way will be jittery, because the camera will move with the movement of the cameraman. In the past, the cameras Eve saw were stabilized by a stand or a machine. I have never encountered this kind of cameraman running along with her. The scene is estimated to be quite physical-consuming, and there is no way to do this job without enough physical strength.

Director Doug Liman was checking the rehearsal status on the monitor. As a result, he saw a red-haired figure passing by in the corner of the screen, and all his attention was attracted by the bright hair color.

In fact, Eve has been very careful to avoid the attention of the camera and the staff.

She walked quickly along the wall of the conference hall towards the director's area, not wanting to disturb Matt Damon and others.

However, the red hair is too eye-catching and conspicuous, as long as it enters the peripheral vision of other people's eyes, it will not be ignored.

One after another, the staff and actors have come to understand that this red-haired actress should be the lead actor of the movie, Eve!

Previously, the crew members only met each other during the preparation of the film, and hadn't seen the heroine appear since the filming started. Now Eve's appearance on the set is indeed sensational news.

"Good afternoon, Doug." Eve showed an embarrassed and ashamed look, "I'm sorry to disturb your rehearsal, I just wanted to come over and ask, is the current hair color okay? Do you need any changes?"

Everyone is equal in the Hollywood crew culture. Everyone calls each other by name, not any respect. Of course, this equality is also relative. Several leading actors and main creators can be equal, and some staff members will call Miss Campbell or Damon gentlemen.

Looking at her hair, she smiled and said, "It's pretty good now, but can it be darker later?"

"It's not so eye-catching after washing, but you can't wash your hair on the first day of dyeing."

Don't ask Eve how she knew about it. In the last movie "Legal Blonde", she relied on this trick to overturn the case in court. She naturally remembered it very clearly.

"Since it can be darkened, it's fine. If it's still so eye-catching while fleeing, it's the killer's biggest target." Doug opened his arms to hug his school girl, and added, "Welcome to the crew."

"Thank you, I hope I didn't affect the filming efficiency of the crew."

Those who are rehearsing over there are the staff of the crew, because Jason Bourne, played by Matt Damon, will hijack Mary at the World Economic Forum in Davos and use it as a shield.

It's just that Eve has never been here, and the role of Mary can only be replaced by a male staff member, so the scene looks a bit weird.

Doug Liman shook his head, this is the schedule made by the producer, even if there is a problem, he will not blame Eve.

He shouted to the photographers and actors over there: "Everyone take a break, let me introduce you, this is Eve, who plays Mary-Saint Jago in the movie. She just returned to the team today, and I will talk to you later Let's rehearse together."

"it is good!"

"That's Eve, she looks really pretty."

"It's the first time I think red hair is so beautiful. I heard that she won the Cannes Best Actress this year. Her acting skills should be fine."

"You're finally here." Matt Damon came over and gave Eve a hug. He may be the person who knows Eve the most in the crew.

There were thin beads of sweat on the actor's forehead.

Eve smiled and said, "I heard that you have already filmed a lot of content. If I don't come, maybe there will be no heroine in the movie."

She doesn't want to have too much involvement with Matt Damon. As the hero and heroine of the movie, they must be filming together, but both parties have boyfriend and girlfriend, and it will be troublesome if they cause some troubles.

Hollywood is really small, and everyone is always connected.

So the two of them just hugged politely, without even kissing each other, and kept their distance.

Matt Damon jokingly said: "You came at the right time. An hour ago, I was still asking the director how to shoot this scene after rehearsal."

"I'm sorry, then I'll join now." Eve didn't care about the fatigue of the journey, she didn't want to wait until tomorrow's filming to be the one who had a problem.

A venue like this was expensive to rent for a day, and she felt it was her duty to save a little money for the crew.

Doug himself doesn't want to squeeze actors, but since Eve has already said so, what's the problem?So he took the radio microphone, led Eve to the door of the meeting room, and began to speak.

These scenes were all drawn by him as storyboards, and now they are used to coordinate and cooperate with actors, photographers and sound engineers.

Robert didn't make a sound at all, and he was very happy to see Eve actively integrate into the crew.

"Miss Campbell is too hardworking. It was a meeting, but it turned into a rehearsal." Mandy muttered in a low voice, silently taking out the script, ready to hand it out

.

"This is the profession. She likes filming very much, and she is not afraid of being tired doing what she likes."

The two of them stood together watching Eve keep nodding under the director's explanation, and whispered to the cameraman from time to time, as if they were studying the best angle to shoot.

"You walked in from the door with Matt. Before you thought he was also a member of the conference, but after entering the door, you found that you were hijacked. So you have a flustered and frightened change process."

"Matt, you pinch her arm with your left hand, pull her in front of you, and put the wooden warehouse on her back. The cameraman pays attention to the close-ups here. The No. 1 camera takes Eve's whole body, and the No. 2 camera For her backside and Matt shot, shot No. 3 to shoot the lecture scene. Now you go through this route with me."

Doug Liman personally led the two actors from the entrance of the conference hall straight ahead, stop and go, and even blocked the ppt projector.

In this carefully designed route, several cameras will not shoot each other, and it is more in line with the positioning of the characters.

At the bustling World Economic Forum in Davos, when an economist was talking about it, who would have thought that the former CIA agent and the current agent would meet on narrow roads?

This kind of lively and tense contrast will make the audience feel anxious and enhance the movie-watching experience.

"The lighting engineer will cooperate with you. When you reach this position, the light will suddenly turn on. You must wait for the light to turn on before reacting. Matt, after you see the light turn on, if you don't want to be discovered by two agents, you must Push Eve down, use the bodies of the rest of the lecturers as cover, and slowly crawl forward."

"According to the state, you should be frightened. You want to resist but dare not bet on whether the wooden warehouse is real."

The economists on the stage gave passionate speeches, and the audience responded positively, but there was a cat-and-mouse game going on behind them, which was the highlight.

The group performers will not come over until the official shooting tomorrow. Before they arrive, Eve and Matt must keep all the procedures in mind, and they must also cooperate with the cameraman and lighting engineer.

Doug Liman hoped that this clip could be completed well, so after explaining it once, he asked: "Eve, do you understand the process? Do you need me to say it again?"

In fact, this passage is entirely for Eve alone. Matt Damon and the cameraman have already rehearsed it, so it is naturally very clear, only she does not know how to shoot it.

"I basically understand, why don't you just practice walking? Can you give it a try?"

Eve has worked hard on the script and novel, and she only needs to memorize the route. Anyway, it is inconvenient to move after being held hostage.

All she has to do is take care of the camera while acting.

In the past, the position of the camera was fixed, and there could be a clear direction during the performance.

But this time it was the cameraman who was carrying the machine himself. If the cooperation was not tacit, the camera might have captured something else when he performed by himself.

When encountering this kind of thing, there is no other way, only more running-in.

Doug thought for a while, "Try it once, simulate shooting, so that you can find out directly if there are any problems. Do you want to recite the lines first?"

"No, I've already memorized the lines. If there are very few mistakes, it shouldn't affect the practice."

She didn't blindly magnify her words, but left room for herself.

Doug Liman returned to the monitor, he held a loudspeaker and said loudly: "All attention, practice will start immediately, all departments are ready, action!"

The author has something to say: Let's summarize at the end of the month.

Due to personal reasons, the update this month is tired, and the quality of the text has also fluctuated.

After updating this chapter, organize the outline and details carefully, because in the next plot, two movies will be released one after another, awards season, Olympic Games and other important content, these plots are quite difficult to write.

Originally, I was going to write these in April, but I didn’t know how to write, so I was afraid to write, and some were afraid of code words, for fear that the writing would not be good.

As a result, this kind of fear harmed me instead, causing the novel to be updated frequently.Only by facing these problems bravely, otherwise, I will never be able to write.

I hope that it can be updated in May and return to normal or even an outbreak state.
