A few days later, Sophia Coppola ended most of the extras’ scenes. The most difficult part was not filming, but makeup. The super avant-garde dress of Huiguo’s upper class made a lot of preparations for the costume and makeup team of the crew. Even so, the working hours of these workers are close to twelve hours a day.

Clothing is also a major feature of this movie. What Ryan asked for is simple, that is, to seize several key elements to attract the attention of teenagers and female audiences as much as possible.

As for whether the film contains some hidden satire, that is something that screenwriter Susan Collins and director Sophia Coppola need to consider.

There are a lot of action scenes in the shooting. Sophia Coppola is not good at these. The action scenes are basically handed over to Tiger Chen Lai.

When actors, directors and various other teams from Hong Kong were squeezed out of Hollywood, he became one of the very few people who could gain a foothold in Hollywood because of the integration of his own efforts and the support from Jenkins Pictures. Outside of Tiger Chen, there are not many Hong Kong filmmakers who can stay in Hollywood.

Kung fu movies that have been popular in North America for a period of time have also entered the sunset and are about to end.

This is the inevitable development of Hollywood, and it cannot be changed by anyone or any group company. After the establishment of Hollywood, there have been several short-term emergence of foreign films, but after Hollywood absorbed the essence, most of these outsiders were finally eliminated. Out of North America.

It's very simple. Hollywood action directors only need to learn some kung fu, combined with other fighting methods, supplemented by various high-tech methods, enough to design a fight that attracts the audience.

In the last ten years of Ryan's previous life, the situation has almost developed in this way. Hollywood has absorbed some of the advantages of kung fu. Combining the specialties of Muay Thai, Judo, Taekwondo, Karate and Free Fighting, the designed fighting is simpler, fierce and direct, and the actual effect after the movie is released has proved to be enough to attract the attention of the audience.

Tiger Chen basically gave up Yuan Heping's routine, he was almost completely Hollywood.

If you want not to be eliminated by Hollywood, you must first integrate into Hollywood and become a part of this big factory or assembly line.

After all, a high degree of commercialization and industrialization is the key to Hollywood's success.

Ryan's role is a completely masked villain, following the direction of the script. Except for the final fight with Pita and Katniss, there is no place to shine or show up. In the past life, it is a soy sauce crowd.

Most of the time, he just sits next to watch the filming of the crew, and occasionally comes on stage to show some cool action shots in front of the camera, and even the lines are pitiful.

Katniss is the only protagonist of the movie, and most of the camera shots will only follow Natalie.

In just a few days. Natalie has been tested by a series of action shots such as climbing trees and hanging wires. Although there have been several small accidents in the middle, under the protection of the crew's safety measures, she did not suffer any harm.

of course. The story takes place in the future Shi Huiguo, whether it is shot in a studio or several times to go to Brisbane for shooting, there will always be a green screen in front of the camera lens.

With the rapid development of computer synthesis technology. This has become a necessary part of all major productions.

After more than ten days of shooting, there was good news from North America. After several rounds of negotiations between Jules Stewart and Alan Ruston. An agreement was quickly reached, and Disney Pictures received the right to adapt "The Dilemma of Life" with a $1 million plus 3% North American box office share.

Ryan also took the time to finish reading this memoir, and then confessed that Julius started to write the script. This kind of movie is a one-man show most of the time. It is more about the mastery of the starring and the director. The script can only be said to be relatively inferior. Essential elements.

"The progress of setting up here is a little slower than expected." Sophia Coppola put down the coffee cup, "I talked to Ms. Kennedy on the phone yesterday, and the farm is basically set up. After this week, we will go to shoot the location first. ."

Today’s movie ended earlier. People who are familiar with Ryan, Natalie and Sophia Coppola returned to Brisbane and met in the hotel’s western restaurant for dinner. After dinner, they enjoyed coffee and chatted. Up.

"It's great." Taylor sniffed the coffee, and still picked up his juice obediently, "I miss Gelug."

"Who is Gru?"

Natalie, who was talking about something with Scarlett, suddenly raised her head and asked, "Your new friend?"

"That..." Taylor rolled his eyes and thought about what to say in an instant, "A shepherd dog, the leader of the hunting dog on the farm, is best at hunting hares."

Natalie nodded and turned to Ryan who was sitting next to her, "Don't you invite us to go hunting together?"

"Of course you can if you like it." As soon as Ryan's voice fell, Scarlett over there tapped the table lightly, "In this case, you can prepare a bow and a pot of arrows for Nat..."

"Need to prepare a throwing knife for you?" Ryan joked.

"She can't miss the rabbit even if she is prepared." Taylor bit the straw and muttered sarcastically. "We tried yesterday, but Scarlett couldn't even miss the target."

Scarlett Johansson shrugged, but rarely said anything, and obviously knew that the level of throwing a knife was bad enough.

Several people laughed and talked about the herbivores in Australia, and the topic turned back to the movie.

"The crew borrowed the warehouse area of ​​the farm to build the 12 districts." Sophia Coppola said of some preparations there. "The hilly area at the edge of the woods has been set up as a battlefield for the game."

She suddenly sighed, "Frankly speaking, Ryan, the production cost pressure of 100 million US dollars is a bit heavy. If you hadn't prepared an action director, I would definitely not take this series."

"Sophia, don't you want to make the face of those critics who criticized you back then?"

Holding a coffee cup, Ryan said in a bewildered voice, "You won the Oscar nomination for best director. The critics who laughed at you back then said that female directors can make literary and artistic movies, and they do nothing at the box office. You don't want to be in those film critics. Is the person slapped **** the face?"

"And..." He raised his finger and interrupted Sophia Coppola's words, "If you really want Hollywood to recognize your value, high-grossing movies are indispensable."

There are many people who have won the best director Oscars in their previous lives, but everyone who can really get into the ranks has proven themselves at the box office or in business.

Oscars may discriminate against purely commercial film directors to a certain extent, but Hollywood definitely does not.

The simple truth is that for film companies, is Sam Mendes, who won the Oscar for best director for his debut, important, or Michael Bay, who has never made an Oscar?

You can even replace Michael Bay with pure commercial film directors such as Stephen Sommers and Roland Emmerich.

Having said that, Ryan really doesn't remember who the director of "The Hunger Games" was in his previous life, otherwise he would not choose Sophia Coppola.

However, this is also beneficial. With the opening of the Internet era, it has become a normal phenomenon for directors to come to the front desk. The all-feminine main creative lineup is definitely easier to attract women's attention.

Maybe you can do some public relations work with several large feminist organizations, and ask them to properly promote the movie when they engage in activities?

Go back to Disney to discuss it.

Several women were chatting about topics of interest to each other, while Ryan was listening and thinking about these things.

"The Hunger Games" wants to succeed, not only to promote the film, the influence of the novel is also indispensable, like the "Harry Potter" series, movies and books have a very significant mutual promotion relationship, and The most indispensable thing for Disney is the experience of promoting young people's works.

From this year to the present, in Nielsen's statistics, "The Hunger Games" is the best-selling book second only to the "Harry Potter" series and "The Da Vinci Code". Since its publication, the United States has sold nearly 7 million in total. In terms of the promotion of online and e-books, Disney has also made great efforts. On several websites such as Amazon, the sales volume of this book has never fallen out of the top five.

By adapting books that have responded well to the market into movies, and then promoting the sales of books and peripheral products through movies, Hollywood is very familiar with this set.

On the premise of ensuring the popularity of movie promotion, Disney's temporary promotion focus is still on the novel. With more readers of the novel, the movie will have the most basic audience in the future.

Perhaps after the movie is released next year, Mockingbird will become the most popular brooch in the United States.

"Mv? Waiting for someone from Hollywood Records to come over~lightnovelpub.net~Taylor's words interrupted Ryan's thoughts. He smiled and said, "Honey, are you in a hurry? "

"The time is fixed, there is nothing to worry about." Taylor turned the empty cup, "Even if it is to be filmed, it depends on Sophia's schedule."

"When will the record be released?" Sophia Coppola asked.

"My fifteenth birthday." Tyler pointed to Ryan, "He said this is my birthday present this year."

"The mv will be released sooner." Ryan added, "About half a month in advance, so I told you to cut a part of the film, plus use the game location as the mv shooting scene, if the mv market is well received, it can also Promote the movie."

Although it has not been launched yet, the relevant departments of Disney and Hollywood Records have formulated a comprehensive publicity plan and have deliberately selected an alternative mv first platform.

With Disney's huge resources, it is not difficult to win a girl with an already extraordinary strength. (To be continued...) ()
