The Goddess Shines on America

　　 Facing the uninvited guest in front of him, York immediately stepped forward: "Hey, who are you? How come you are here?"

　　 Alice glanced at York: "Excuse me, are you?"

　　 "This is the movie club, I am the minister here, York, my little sister, you should be a middle school student, how did you get to UCLA?"

Since she is the minister, Alice has to talk a little more, shook hands with her friendly and said, "Since you can represent everyone in the community, it will be easy. I have a filming plan now, because the cost is not very high, so I don’t plan to recruit too professional actors. Are you interested in working with me?"

　　 These remarks stunned everyone, and York laughed and said: "You mean, you want to pay for us to make a movie!?"

　　 This is an unprecedented joke, and David laughed a lot from the side. Just imagine, in the dignified and well-known UCLA Film Club classroom on American campuses, a seventh-grade girl who appeared abruptly wanted to ask everyone to make a film... This situation is too surprising!

　　 Alice shrugged. Of course, she knew that it was a bit of a hassle to win the trust of these college dogs, but compared to asking DreamWorks to recruit actors step by step, this trouble was not a problem at all.

"That's it. My name is Alice Wang and I live in Culver City. Not long ago, my family and my neighbor jointly established a film company called DreamWorks. The registered address is just south of Sunset Boulevard. The company is a company, and I personally do it. I am very interested in making movies, and I have some savings. Of course, I can't afford to pay for a million-dollar production, but... So, are you interested in co-production with me?"

　　 While speaking, Alice constantly scanned the people in the classroom. The scale of this film club is really good. There are currently more than ten members present. You know, filming is a costly activity after all, even if later generations have a DV machine, not to mention that they still rely on bulky video tape cameras. Therefore, seeing so many people in one breath has proved that UCLA's film club is indeed very powerful.

　　 "You mean, if we make a movie with you, we have a chance to actually release it!?"

　　York was suddenly excited. Although I don't know what the **** is DreamWorks, he is also a film company anyway. What is the concept of a movie company? It is an absolutely tall existence that has left the university movie clubs on three streets. At the very least, it can allow the filmed movies to be shown online in theaters. This is something that most movie clubs can never do. !

　　In this way, the two sides hit it off immediately. For York and others, this is nothing but **** luck. Although this girl can't fully represent the film company, she is at least the boss's daughter, right? Even at the lowest level, this is a great opportunity to really meet people in the Hollywood industry, and idiots will let it go.

　　 For Alice, asking these college dogs to help them make a film will save a lot of money. According to the rules, both the director and the actors are divided from the box office, but if you hire these movie lovers, it is completely different.

　　 Haven't you seen the expressions of these guys who are going to heaven for joy? In the eyes of the actors, it is the most basic thing for the finished film to be released, even the lowest level of the crowd will not be polite. But for them, the focus is just to make a good movie, as for the income...

　　 "I can only put out 20,000 yuan at most, so the box office performance is really uncertain. Maybe the attendance rate on the premiere day can't even reach 30%. So in terms of remuneration, how about using a fixed amount to calculate it?"

　　 York thought for a moment and said, "I need to discuss it with everyone."

　　 During their discussion, Alice wandered in the corridor at will. Of course she was not afraid that York and others would disagree. Sure enough, when York asked her to walk into the classroom again a moment later, the whole room was full of smiles.

　　 "Alice, everyone agrees to your proposal."

　　York said: "Twenty thousand yuan is not a decimal. It is enough for us to buy a professional video camera of good quality. It is not easy for you to spend so much money. So, in terms of remuneration..."

　　Undoubtedly, Alice's age of only thirteen played a decisive role. Even if her father had the ability to create a company with others, it was not her own money. Everyone put themselves in consideration, if they were willing to spend so much money to make movies at this age, then they would undoubtedly be an enthusiast-level movie lover.

　　 Same kind!

　　 "First of all, it’s a friendly show. You don’t need to be paid. You just need to pay the cost of the filming. If it can be released... Haha, then pay us 10,000 yuan each!"

　　 10,000 yuan...

　　 Seeing the contented look of the people in the classroom, Alice couldn't help but wonder, is she a bit too bad?

　　 After all, if it works well, the box office of this movie is hundreds of millions...

　　 However, it is true that this is more than the remuneration offered by themselves, and it has nothing to do with them...

　　 After all, for these people, the primary purpose of filming is hobbies. If a movie with a cost of 20,000 dollars can really get the box office... 10,000 yuan is indeed a lot of money for them.

　　 The confidentiality agreement was quickly printed and signed. The twelve employees on the scene of the entire film club immediately became Alice’s temporary employees. As for the specific positions, they can come back to discuss. Filmmaking was originally a hobby, and now everyone has a high extra fee of 10,000 US dollars, and the possibility of official release, this contract is really no pressure to sign!

　　 "Then I will tell you about the content of the movie now."

In this way, sitting on the best steel tube chair in the classroom, Alice smiled and said: "We are going to shoot a supernatural thriller movie, and the picture is directly using the most primitive camera lens. , What we want is a documentary style."

　　 This sentence made everyone look at each other for a while, a supernatural movie, it sounds so cool, but what does the documentary style mean?

　　 Sitting in the crowd, David spoke: "In other words, are we filming a pseudo-documentary?"

　　 Hearing this question, Alice couldn't help but shine. Long before she first entered the classroom, she heard the conversation between this guy and his companions, which can be said to have left a deep impression on her.

　　 "Yes, it's a fake documentary, it's a shame that you can tell it so sharply."

Alice simply looked directly at David: "In essence, this is of course a fictional story, but in terms of shooting techniques, we have to portray it as a self-portrait image. In other words, the protagonist is carrying a camera to shoot his own Life, and this life is the plot of the story...Of course, we have to make a joint editing."

Some of the college students suddenly realized and shouted in applause, while others frowned in contemplation. It was still David. Before York, he asked: "The camera is very heavy. If you let the actor and actress carry the camera to shoot Is it too fake for yourself?"

　　 Alice nodded, and couldn't help but admire this David even more. What he said is indeed reasonable, after all, even if it was "Blair the Witch", the originator of the pseudo-documentary, it was at least 1999, and the DV machine was already available. For today's 1984, the huge and bulky camera is really not suitable for the so-called selfie, not to mention it is still in the video tape stage.

"On this point, we can start with the plot itself and rationalize the protagonist’s behavior of carrying the camera. When making a movie, what we do is tell the story. If we can’t find a reason for this, then what kind of movie will be made and what will be the group? Film club? Everyone is right?"

　　In this way, this problem was easily solved, but a new problem also followed, that is, Alice did want to modify the original movie script to rationalize the change from the DV machine to the camera. Basically, the male protagonist must be reasonably strong, otherwise, given the weight of the current camera, who would use it to play family selfies?

　　 "York, I think you are suitable."

　　 As a result, Alice pointed directly at York: "It's over six feet tall~www.NovelMTL.com~weighs over one hundred and sixty pounds, and her arms are full of muscles. Are you sure you are not playing rugby?"

There was a burst of cheerful laughter from the members, and York scratched his head embarrassedly and said, "Actually, I was a rugby member in high school, but after I went to college, I focused on the film club. By the way, Alice, your parents and people Is the co-founded company short of people? I should graduate in a year and want to try it."

　　 Alice thought to herself, when did she say that her parents and Lawrence co-organized it? But that's not important. She shrugged and said, "Of course I welcome it. As long as you can apply for a suitable position, of course we don't mind your joining."

　　 "Alice, when do you plan to start shooting?"

　　At this time, David, who had been reading the contract carefully, said: "Also, if I can, can I try to direct?"

York took a sip and frowned, "You are directing? David, even if you have been in Industrial Light and Magic for two years, you are still capable of special effects, right? Is the director quite capable? This is what Alice wants to film. Movie, if you screw up..."

　　 "You mean Industrial Light & Magic?"

　　 As soon as I heard this name, Alice had the urge to close her mouth from ear to ear. She felt that this young man had a lot of ideas when she eavesdropped outside the house. Now it seems that it is really amazing.

　　 "Your name is David, right? What is your full name?"

　　 David shrugged and said with a relaxed look: "David Fincher, from Denver, don't look at me in the first grade. I'm 22 years old."
