The Best Entertainment Era

Less than mid-June, earlier than planned, the crew entered the post-production stage, and editor Jessica Felton followed the crew into the post-production studio of Warner Studios.

To start the post-production ahead of time, he must pay the corresponding compensation, but in front of the time saved, Ronan was also generous once.

He is not stingy himself, and he is very aware of the huge incentive effect of money, but at this stage, the funds in his hands are limited, and every money must be spent where it should be spent most.

I've seen about two-thirds of the shot.

In the editing room, Jessica Felton neatly tied her long hair behind her head and sat in front of the workbench, I will spend the next week carefully studying all the shots taken by the director, and then formulate an editing plan.

Ronan nodded slightly, and subconsciously glanced at Jessica Felton. He wondered if it was because she was sitting too close to the workbench. The female editor's huge chest seemed to rest on the workbench. .

Presumably this will reduce the burden on the body? After all, weight cannot be ignored.

Okay! Ronan pulled a chair and sat in front of the workbench next to him: I will try to find time to read it again.

With the shooting of James Huang, he has seen all the shots long ago.

Jessica Felton adjusted the back of the chair and found the most comfortable position. Even though it was covered by a tight-fitting shirt, the two big balls were still spread out on the workbench like water bags.

Worried about me? she asked.

Ronan shrugged. No. I need to study.

Huh? Jessica Felton didn't understand: Why?

Ronan said directly: Insufficient ability.

Jessica Felton nodded and said, There are few men who are as honest as you.

Ronan smiled: It's not ashamed to admit your own shortcomings.

There was a knock on the door of the editing room, and Jessica Felton called out to come in. Immediately, two people walked in with several large packages, many of which were daily necessities, including the must-haves for women every month. Pads.

Jessica Felton pointed to the open space at the door: Put it here first, and I'll clean it up later.

Then, another man came up dragging an extra-large box. Judging from the outer packaging, it seemed to be a bedding or something.

Jessica Felton directed the opponent to put behind the door again.

After these people left, Ronan asked curiously, What are you going to do? Are you moving?

Almost. Jessica Felton said directly: Isn't this editing room with a rest room? I'll be living here for the next two months.

Ronan was quite surprised: We have plenty of time.

Jessica Felton raised her finger and shook: You don't understand, editing is a job that requires 200% of my energy, and I can't be distracted. So, you need to find someone to send it to me. Food and drink, don't let any irrelevant people come in and disturb me.

She took out her mobile phone and handed it to Ronan: You have my mobile phone. If someone contacts me, you can push it if you can. If you can't push it, you can figure it out. Except for the professor, you don't need to tell me anything else.

Ronan looked at the phone and asked, Where's your family?

I made an agreement with my family yesterday. Jessica Felton was clearly prepared: They won't disturb me during this time.

Meeting such a serious, responsible and devoted person, what else can Ronan say, and nodded: Okay! No problem!

This is really a super technical house.

How much peace of mind would it save if every employee could be like Jessica Felton?

Unfortunately, not everyone can combine hobbies and work.

Let's get to work. Jessica Felton stopped talking and started playing the footage.

Ronan also looked at it seriously in front of the assistant's desk.

Jessica Felton next to him was concentrating, as if there was nothing else in the editing room except the shots, and every time he watched a shot, he would record it in his notebook.

Sometimes, after seeing all the shots of a scene, she would go back and watch it again and again, seemingly looking for every cut point in the shot.

Editing is the selection, selection and assembly of a large number of materials shot in a film, and finally compiled into a coherent, smooth, clear-cut and emotionally appealing work. It is the main component of film art creation and an indispensable part of film production. An important process, a re-creation of a film from shooting to completion.

This was originally part of the director's job, and it was a very important part.

With the continuous development of science and technology, movies have evolved from early silent films to sound films. The editing process has become more and more complicated. It was time to operate the editing equipment and edit the film by myself, so editing professionals gradually emerged: editors and editing assistants.

In the last 20 to 30 years, as Hollywood has completely established a producer-centered system, directors and editors are already two completely different professions.

Even, the editing under the control of the producer can cut the film completely different from what the director wanted to express.

From film material to a complete film work, editing often has to go through multiple steps such as review, initial cut, re-cut, fine cut and even comprehensive cut.

Jessica Felton has no assistants, everything has to be done by herself, and she is also very involved.

After concentrating on watching for two and a half hours, Ronan's eyes were a little tired. He rubbed his eyes and looked to the side. Jessica Felton still kept the sitting posture at the beginning, staring at the monitor screen closely, only his right hand occasionally Write and draw in a notebook.

No wonder she wanted to put the two big groups on the workbench.

Staying in one position for a long time, the two big clumps are big and heavy, can really become a burden.

I remember Amanda Seyfried muttering in private that it seemed possible that her back was sore and her legs were cramping.

Ronan secretly praised him from the bottom of his heart. He is worthy of being a professional-level senior technical geek. Not only can his skills stand the test, but he even takes his posture into consideration.

The attitude is serious, the professional skills are superb, the asking price is not very high, the appearance is extremely good, and they also bring their own bedding.

Where can I find such an editor?

If the final film of Human Purge is not bad, you can consider establishing a long-term cooperative relationship with this senior technical nerd.

Ronan waited for his eyes to feel better, and went to fetch two glasses of water. The glass of water was placed within Jessica Felton's reach. Just as he was about to sit back and continue looking at the camera, the phone rang suddenly.

The classic Nokia ringtone was extremely harsh in this relatively quiet editing room. Before Ronan took out his mobile phone, Jessica Felton turned his head, bright blue eyes were sharp, as if he would eat people at any time.

Obviously, the female editor is very dissatisfied with the ringtone that interrupts her work.

Sorry. Ronan quickly took out his mobile phone, hung up the phone first, and said, I won't bring my mobile phone in next time.

Like a student who made a mistake and was caught by the teacher, he hurried out of the editing room.

It wasn't until he was far away from the entrance of the editing room that Ronan picked up his cell phone, ready to call someone back, but when he looked down, it wasn't his cell phone in his hand at all!

This is clearly the mobile phone that Jessica Felton gave him before!

Blame the Nokia ringtones.

Ronan couldn't help shaking his head, remembering what he said before, he called back the number he just called.

The phone was connected immediately, and a sweet female voice rang through the receiver: Hello, this is Green Real Estate Company, we just launched a sea view apartment, facing the sea...

Ronan cut off the phone directly. It's only the end of the 1990s, and telemarketing is so arrogant?

He took out two mobile phones, turned them all to silent, and returned to the editing room lightly.

In the next few days, Ronan would spend a few hours a day in the editing room to watch the shots. Occasionally, when Jessica Felton was resting, the two would discuss editing style issues.

After the arrival of July, other post-production staff also joined the work one after another.

During this period, because Ronan had to deal with the company's work, he didn't go to the editing room for a while, and when he went again, it was a horrible place.
