Chapter 65 Train the actors!
Many people saw what Chen Lin did in one morning.
Almost all experienced cast members present were familiar with the crew, and of course they knew he was running in the crew.
But you actually used an old actor like John Litgo to work in the crew, which is a bit unreasonable!
Chen Lin waved his hand to the director's assistant and signaled that he knew.
This is a very simple question, but it was ignored by Chen Lin. In Hollywood, he is just a new director!
Despite the trust of Disney, why does a doll-level director who is only 25 years old earn a John Litt high-end running-in crew that is already well-known?
Hollywood is full of actors with all kinds of quirks. If you are a senior director, all the problems in the filming are not a problem!
But the reality is that Shen Lin is just a fledgling director in Hollywood!
The young director must be cautious and accommodating in many aspects. Of course, it is OK to run in the crew, but you must not find veteran actors or big-name actors!
An old actor like John Litgo is still subtle, but he just lets his assistant be responsible for conveying it. If he encounters a bad temper and a little famous person, it is not impossible to just throw it to him in person.
The circles shrouded in fame and fortune will never be harmonious!
Chen Lin is very clear about what his goal is. In order to achieve this goal, he can make the necessary compromises!
The reality is obvious, he does not have the ability and qualifications to fully control the crew.
However, it doesn’t matter. As long as the movie can be shot on schedule, the rest can be ignored!
Later, Chen Lin changed the shooting plan and moved more scenes of temporary actors to the front. After a full week of booting up, he never filmed several scenes of major actors. After three days, with the resolution of various job conflicts in the crew, the crew's operation gradually began to smooth.
...
Next is the regular shooting!
"Adjust the aircraft No. 3 to the air and shoot!"
The whole set was busy but not chaotic. Chen Lin held up the loudspeaker and ordered, "Hoyt, there is a problem with your No. 2 aperture, readjust the black and white balance!"
The next scenes focus on shooting family daily life.
Of course, the air filled with C-9O is indispensable during shooting.
Chen Lin is very similar to Hoyt's philosophy. When he was shooting this family scene, he needed to present the intimacy and directness of a documentary-style handheld movie shooting.
But he also wanted to use large format Imax film to show the combination of beauty and texture!
Hoyt didn't agree at first because of the huge size and weight of the Imax camera, we couldn't use it in smaller, closer environments!
Although Hoyt is also a standard film enthusiast, he insists that this shot should be made with a high-definition camera.
As for the effect, it can be completely made with lights!
Chen Lin firmly disagreed, and Hoyt could only carry it on his shoulders, no matter how heavy it was.
Although Chen Lin was curious about how he did this, this adjustable shooting can make the entire conversation look easy and improvised!
"The director's requirements have become very strict during this period."
Standing on the edge of the set, a girl with a hood held her mother's hand and muttered, "If I can't do it, will he scold me, mom?"
"Dear, do you have no confidence in yourself?"
Her mother hadn't answered yet, Matthew McConaughey walked over from behind and reached out to rub the hood on the girl's head, "You're doing well in the show."
The little girl, who was about ten years old, turned her head and smiled mischievously, "Hello, Dad."
Matthew McConaughey also laughed, "Don't worry, McKenzie, Chen Lin is the best-tempered director I know. He is very patient and you are also very good. He will like you."
"Do you know him very well, Matthew?"
"Of course, we've worked on a drama!"
Matthew nodded, then saw the little girl with a cramped face and knocked her big forehead hatefully: "I am a straight man, and Chen Lin is also a straight man!"
"Who knows?"
McKenzie muttered a few words.
Then, Chen Lin walked over, talked about the scene a little, briefly explained the positioning issue, and then started the official shooting.
For an acting guy like Matthew sells Connor, this scene is not difficult.
A very normal family conversation, a few simple questions, leads to the ghost line throughout.
But McKennie Foy, who starred in the movie for the time, is different. This girl's performance in the audition is amazing.
Now it’s the turn of real shooting, the little girl’s expression is extremely stiff!
I guess I'm too nervous!
"stop!"
The test shot was temporarily suspended, and Chen Lin walked to the shooting site. When McKenzie Foy saw him coming, his expression on his face became even more nervous.
Children and animals are both difficult to control during shooting. Chen Lin is very clear about this and must not treat child actors with a harsh attitude, otherwise it will only have a negative effect.
Chen Lin sat on the sand of props and pointed to the opposite side, "McKennis, Timothy, sit casually."
McKennis plays the girl Murphy, and Timothy plays the teenager Tom.
Both are Cooper's children.
Timothy has few scenes, after all, the savior is Murphy.
The performances of the two young actors are not very satisfactory. Timothy plays Tom, but McKenzie is a bit disappointing.
"Director Chen Lin..." The little girl looked at him with a little fear.
"Hey, dear, sit there."
He showed a kind smile to her and Chen Lin asked, "Am I scary? Or is it that I am very ugly that makes you dare not sit opposite me and look at me? Many people praise me as an amazing handsome guy!"
The little girl squeezed out a smile, pulled Timothy Chaimaid and sat opposite Shen Lin.
"I heard you are from Los Angeles? It should be the hottest time there!"
"That's right, when I was at home a few days ago, the temperature was as high as 10 degrees! I didn't expect it to be so cool here!"
McKenzie's tone was filled with sighs!
1oo degree? Chen Lin was a little surprised at first, and then thought about it. What she said was the temperature of Fahrenheit, which is equivalent to 38 degrees Celsius!
"The process of making a movie is a wonderful journey, you can experience the spring, summer, autumn and winter of the world." Chen Lin smiled, "You can suddenly appear that the world suddenly changes from summer to winter, and you can also see others happy and sad."
After talking to the little girl for a few casual words, McKenzie gradually relaxed, and Chen Lin immediately entered the topic, "I heard Matthew say, are you happy to play with him?"
"Yes, I usually call Matthew Dad." She reached out and hugged Matthew McConaughey's arm, "Matthew likes me very much, and I like Matthew very much."
"Then you should be very happy to be with Matthew. Why was it so stiff just now?"
"Uh..." McKennie Fury shook her head, "I'm just a little nervous."
"hy? Matthew is your dad."
Matthew McConaughey, who had been standing next to him, immediately responded, "Yes, my dear, you were not nervous at all when you were with me."
"I just..." She lowered her head, "I'm a little afraid that I'll behave badly."
"What's the matter now?" Chen Lin asked.
"I will prove myself!"
Children around ten years old are at the competitive age group, "waiting to see."
"I'll wait."
