The Best Entertainment Era

Orange County, a middle class community.

When he came to the community theater, Paul stood at the door, looked at his watch, and was a little anxious: That guy Mario, really ink, why hasn't he come?

Anxious in his heart, he couldn't stand on his feet, and he kept walking back and forth.

Two days ago, someone came to the door through the director of the community theater and invited him to attend a movie screening and engage in a little special performance work. The working time was only three days, and the salary was as high as 2,000 US dollars.

After screening, he and Mario were all selected.

Although he works part-time in this middle-class community theater, he is not from here. Whether it is him or Mario, $2,000 is not a small amount, which is worth more than a month's normal income.

Besides, the other party and the dean of the community theater have jointly promised that this job is not illegal.

Finally, chubby Mario came to the door of the theater.

Why did you come here? Paul complained, We're going to sign the contract today, it's not good to be late.

Mario opened the Coke in his hand, took a big sip, and said, It's too late.

Paul pulled him up and left: Hurry up, this is a big deal of $2,000! It's almost enough for your sister's living expenses for the next quarter.

This extra income is very important to them.

The two came to the office of the head of the community theater, and saw the ordinary-looking middle-aged man again.

Good afternoon, Mr. Robert.

Good afternoon. Robert took out a few documents and handed them to the two, saying, This is the contract, please take a look at it first.

Paul and Mario took it and looked through it.

The person in charge of the community theater said at this time: I can act as the intermediary and witness of the contract. If you are worried, we will find a law firm.

Paul quickly said, Don't bother.

Hmm! Hmm! Mario kept nodding.

The conditions were negotiated before, and there was a guarantee from a trustworthy person. After reading it, the two signed the contract. Although there was a confidentiality clause, there was a reward of 2,000 US dollars, so just keep your mouth shut.

After signing the contract, the head of the community theater voluntarily left the office.

Robert opened the briefcase, handed the two ordinary copies to Paul and Mario, and said, This is a performance project you are in charge of, so you should get familiar with it first.

The two took it over and immediately read it. After watching a few paragraphs, they felt relieved.

I was still a little bit worried before, what if the other party asked for an excessive performance? Paul finished it first, and immediately said with a smile: Mr. Robert, don't worry, these bags are on me.

Robert reminded: Remember to go to my place two days in advance to strengthen the practice.

Isn't everything settled? Paul said with a vow: We will definitely abide by the contract.

The extra income of two thousand dollars is not encountered once a year.

Mario also finished watching at this time, shaking the fat on his face, and said: This is not too difficult. I can drink more Coke then to increase the degree of authenticity.

Paul quickly agreed: Yes! Yes! We just need to drink more Coke.

Robert nodded with a smile. These two are old actors in the community theater, and they are also considered clever.

After Paul and Mario were settled, Robert left the community theater and rushed to the next place. What Ronan said made sense. It is always good to make more preparations. Passive waiting is not as good as proactive fighting.

For distribution, apart from the film, create favorable conditions as much as possible.

Ronan also kept in touch with the distributors of several companies, during which he participated in a screening held by Lionsgate.

Like most film screenings in Hollywood, the audience of this screening is mainly composed of industry insiders and some movie fans, and the opinions of both will be valued by the film company.

After attending a regular film viewing meeting,

Ronan further perfected his plan. Although Hollywood in this era has come up with a lot of messy tricks, it is still worse than the future dance of demons.

Time moves and so does Hollywood.

Before the film crew returned to Warner Studios from the San Fernando Valley to shoot, Ronan went to the outdoor filming set once again when the film crew came back. Another film crew had already entered the villa and was preparing to shoot. They also brought a group of women with heavy makeup. actor.

These actresses are all experts in acting in love scenes, but unfortunately it was too early, and Ronan couldn't find any faces he knew.

People like Malena Morgan and Tony Black, who he admires more, may have to wait a few years before making their debut.

Stormy Daniels, who is biting Twitter and ruling the country, doesn't seem to be in the valley either.

With these messy ideas in mind, after the crew returned to Los Angeles, Ronan sent applications to several independent film festivals such as the Sun Denis Film Festival.

If you can't find the distributor, you can also take the road of film festival screening.

After James Huang and Ronan agreed on the shooting method of the background action scene, the crew's shooting speed was further accelerated, and it entered early June, and it was already in the final stage.

It has to be said that James Huang has accumulated a wealth of experience in his film career for more than ten years, and he is really good at shooting horror films.

Ronan didn't interfere much with the filming, he just came to the crew specially when the crew was filming the last scene.

bang— bang—

The gunshots sounded, and the masked gangster fell to the ground. Accompanied by blacks, two Arabs with guns ran in from the door and saved the protagonist's family.

The male protagonist pulls off the masks of the gangsters with trembling hands, and what is presented to him is the white neighbors with whom they seem to have a good relationship on weekdays.

The camera first sweeps across the vicious white faces, then turns to the blacks and the two Arab actors.

These three were upright in an instant.

After all, there is harm only when there is contrast. James Huang's camera language is clear and clear, and he doesn't play tricks on it.

Cut! James Huang yelled to stop shooting, and said loudly, This one is over!

Then he raised his voice again: I announce that the filming stage of Human Clearance Project is...completed!

Ronan stood not far behind James Huang, just watched the crew cheer and said nothing.

Most of the crew members are very happy, not only the high-intensity work is over, but also means that part of the salary will be paid in place soon.

There are two main salary payment models in Hollywood, one is paid on a weekly basis, that is, weekly salary; the other is paid in two to three times.

Ronan took the latter.

At this moment, he didn't show his presence, and he was thinking about the next post-production.

Compared with shooting, he will be deeply involved in the whole process of post-production.

Post-production can turn ordinary or even vulgar shots taken by the director into magic.

After the filming ended, other people were still busy celebrating. After all, for many people, this is very likely to be the first theater movie in their lives.

But Mrs Seyfried had pulled Amanda Seyfried from the crowd.

She took out a special tissue, carefully wiped off the makeup and blood on her daughter's face, and said in a low voice, Amanda, did you forget what I said? What are you doing with those people?

Amanda scratched her head and said, I see, Mom.

Mrs. Seyfried gave her a handbag: Go! and urged: Don't forget to ask for his personal contact information.

Now that it is determined to develop towards actors, any producer is very important.

Amanda responded, and walked towards a quiet corner with her handbag.

When Ronan was about to leave the set, he found Amanda Seyfried approaching, carrying her bag as usual.

Amanda, do you have cake again? He asked with a smile.

A cute girl who often sends snacks can easily make a good impression.

Well, here you are. Amanda handed it to Ronan, and said deliberately: This time it's different. Except for baking, I did all the other processes by myself.

Ronan opened the handbag and took out one. The cake was ordinary in shape and looked like a novice's work. He nodded and said, It's a very special gift.

Amanda put her hands behind her back, shook her body slightly, and said, Try it?

Ronan took a bite and raised his thumb: Not bad, it tastes better than the previous few times.

Amanda smiled with satisfaction: I see that you don't like sweets very much, so you deliberately put less sugar this time.

You can see that? Ronan knew that this girl was very careful, so he deliberately praised from the side: Unfortunately, after the filming is over, it will be difficult to eat such a small cake that suits your appetite in the future.

Amanda held out her hand: Give me your contact information, and I'll give it to you when I'm done.

Ronan laughed again, took out a personal business card, and put it in Amanda's little hand. Amanda put it away, waved to him, turned and walked away.

After all the shots were shot, the crew moved to post-production the next day.
