Legendary Hollywood Director

After spending more than two hours loading all the filming equipment onto the truck and sealing the set, Lehmann told everyone about a dinner party at a certain hotel.

Are you going to finish the banquet? Besides, Lehman still has some ideas to win over.

Two-thirds of these behind-the-scenes people are under Europa Films. However, after so many works have been co-operated, both parties are familiar with each other. What Lehman thought was whether he could establish a good cooperative relationship with these people, Even if you don't cooperate with Europa Pictures, you can still make a move.

After all, a production team with a tacit understanding is sometimes more valuable than a person with strong individual skills.

The actors went back to the hotel after filming.

And Lehmann had to go to Europa Films to talk to the relevant person in charge about the copy, and by the way, go there to register the right to use the studio.

In the evening, after a meal together, they went their separate ways.

Next, it took about a week to fine-cut the first version of the film, and Ryan and Thomas had to worry about the rest in advance, but Lyman bought a plane ticket and flew to Los Angeles.

Without him, Chainsaw also needs him to stare.

......

In the post-editing room of Warner Studios, Wen Ziren showed great enthusiasm for the arrival of Lehman.

The film had been filmed as early as the beginning of September, and he had been busy editing these days.

If someone with experience comes here, they can also help with reference.

Soon, Wen Ziren and Ray Warner put the samples into the player.

On the bright screen, Jason Statham looked helplessly at Hugo Weaving, begging not to kill him.

In the end, he still failed to be ruthless and sawed off his leg. Instead, Hugo Weaving picked up the pistol on the ground and shot him in the shoulder.

After falling down, Hugo Weaving said loudly that he had done what he asked for, and the door to the basement opened smoothly.

He dragged his body and crawled hard.

After a while, Jason Statham woke up. The shot just now came to an end. Hugo Weaving kept his hand and didn't kill him.

But seeing that people were about to escape, he collapsed again.

Shout out not to abandon him.

Hugo Weaving made a promise, promising to ask the police to rescue him immediately after he went out.

After a while, only Jason Statham, who was handcuffed above the water pipe, and a corpse on the ground were left in the cramped basement bathroom.

Suddenly, he seemed to see the most terrifying thing in the world, the corpse, actually crawled up from the pool of blood.

Shaking his head, in his most desperate eyes, he closed the door again... This paragraph is well-cut, the rhythm is lively, the mirroring is delicate, and the back and forth perspectives are interspersed, which seems quite tight.

Logically speaking, it should be a proper movie climax/tide point.

As a result, the jigsaw played by J-K Simmons has just appeared on the stage. Without saying a word, it was too neat when the door was closed. The screen suddenly turned, and the camera was inexplicably pulled into a medium shot, and then disappeared?

Is this the complete film? Lyman looked at the screen that was no longer lit, and it was quite painful.

Well, how is it? Wen Ziren asked expectantly.

What do you think about the last paragraph?

Leave it blank?

Give the audience a little space to imagine.

However, you have prepared so much ahead of you, isn't it just for this last character reversal, the plot has reached this stage, and the tone is not raised a little, won't it look incongruous, and the audience will be unhappy watching it.

Is it bad? Wen Ziren asked weakly.

certainly.

Later, Lyman watched the film again.

When I rewatched it again, I kept pointing out some small problems, At the beginning of 9 minutes and 3 seconds, the dialogue is being cut and refined, don't analyze everything, leave some suspense for the audience... the second Here, this shot is too redundant, the scene is too dull, not tight enough... And at the end, you have a good use of tones, but you need to add a little jigsaw front shot, and finally the door is closed. Sometimes, also give a close-up, try to put the perspective on the jigsaw...

After that, a few people watched the demo several times, and they were busy from the morning until after 5 o'clock in the afternoon, and they ate lunch in the editing room.

Finally, the original film is shown again.

Even Ray Naval, the pseudo-producer, can feel the rhythm of the film is much smoother.

As for the director Wen Ziren, he definitely doesn't want to change it. He wants to incorporate all his shooting concepts into the post-production for such a half-month period.

But in fact, it is not that he does not understand film appreciation, and he also keenly feels that these subtle changes really add a lot to the film, and the visual experience is even more shocking.

Excuse me. After watching the edited film, Wen Ziren said sincerely. He now understands why other people's films always have good results, and the sensitivity of this editing is different.

No no no, this movie is better directed by you, and it's nothing to me.

Although everyone likes to hear good words, Wen Ziren's contribution cannot be easily obliterated.

This Chainsaw was originally someone's idea, and the cuts of many shots are also very imaginative, especially the shaping of the horror atmosphere, there are too many merits. His role is nothing more than icing on the cake.

Has someone made the soundtrack? Lehman pressed his head with his fingers and asked suddenly. In later generations, this film can be well received, and the wonderful background music is also a lot of bonus points.

Well, I'm asking someone to do it, but I haven't found a perfect match yet. Wen Ziren said with a light breath.

In this regard, you should keep an eye on it.

For this matter, Lehman can't help much. After all, each director has different aesthetic preferences. Besides, he doesn't know much about music either, and he always outsourced the production to Hans Zimmer's team. The tunes given by others, if you listen to them, they are generally enough.

After cutting the film, Lyman called Shirley Lansing, the CEO of Paramount Pictures, to let her know so she could prepare the pre-promotion for the film.

As for Shirley Lansing, she paid the same attention to this project. She paid more attention to Lehman herself. Hearing this, she also said that she would find someone to arrange the corresponding matters.

Initially, it is scheduled to be released in October, and they will have a meeting to discuss the specific day.

After hanging up the phone, there is nothing to need him here.

Thinking of the agreement with Warner, Lehman couldn't wait to make it.

When he came here this time, there were a lot of things.

In addition to Chainsaw, the Million Dollar Baby project can also initially agree on the general shooting process after he finishes filming Micro Love.

So, after leaving Warner Studios, the next day, I hurriedly invited Warner...
