Chapter 313 The new film starts shooting
After much persuasion, Zou Wenhuai agreed to film other scenes first, and wait and watch the heroine. After that, he dispelled his idea of working on the movie again. Qiao Feng finally hung up the phone.
Qiao Feng doesn't mind working together, but he really has no actresses available recently, and he is reluctant to use actresses from other companies to be the heroine. Unlike the prison-themed movies he collaborated with Shaw Brothers, there is no heroine at all, so there are supporting actresses with very little time to appear.
Therefore, it is better to postpone the cooperation. Let’s wait until the actresses in their company have time.
At the end of August, Heroes 2 was still dominating the last period of the summer season, but Qiao Feng had already taken Zhong Chuhong and the crew to the United States.
Because the bodyguard has been painted in Hong Kong, it has won more than 34 million yuan in box office in 25 days of its release. As a movie with more love than action, fake action real love, such a box office is amazing.
The box office of the bodyguard, coupled with the top ambition of more than 140 million US dollars, Qiao Feng felt that he could start to talk to 20th Century Fox about the release of the bodyguard.
There is a professional team in the discussion of issuance and Shi Nansheng's overall decision, so there is basically nothing Qiao Feng has to worry about. He just needs to give a goal.
So, after flying to the United States, Chen Kexin went to the selected shooting location to see the actual situation, while Qiao Feng took Zhong Chuhong to DreamWorks Animation Studio to visit another industry in the United States besides DreamWorks Film Company.
I walked around the DreamWorks Animation Studio, then looked at Edwin Cartham and John Lassett's recent work and unfinished animation short film samples.
Qiao Feng has basically no requirements for DreamWorks animation work so far. He just needs them to continue to develop drawing software in the original direction and continue to produce some short films.
This studio is not yet profitable, and what it is currently necessary to develop technology and accumulate technology for computer drawing and three-dimensional animation is the top priority.
So, after Qiao Feng praised everyone, and then rewarded a certain bonus according to the salary ratio, he left the studio.
Then, Qiao Feng asked George Lucas for a coffee and told me that I asked Industrial Light and Magic to produce special effects. This matter was mentioned when I talked about the cost of the special effects production of the next two movies before buying an animation studio a few months ago.
Qiao Feng was just finding a reason to ask George Lucas to have coffee and talk about maintaining the relationship. It was not their turn to discuss the price in person.
Maintaining relationships and laying the foundation for future cooperation is Qiao Feng’s goal.
I was basically busy with trivial matters in the past few days after I arrived in the United States. After everything was ready, the first movie for Europe and the United States that Qiao Feng and Zhong Chuhong collaborated on was finally started, and the first movie I knew in Chen Kexin's life started filming.
In a dinner, I rented several houses and then separated the old apartments, the crew was filming the opening scene of the movie.
The photographer carrying the camera and the track camera are shooting the picture according to the predetermined shooting position and angle.
Chen Kexin sat behind the monitor excitedly, looking at the shooting scene, and said to Qiao Feng who was standing behind him: "Boss, this movie looks like a horror movie. If you just watch the movie, you would never think that this is a romantic movie or a romantic movie that makes people cry after watching it."
"How is this contrast, isn't it interesting?" Qiao Feng asked with a smile.
"Well, it's very interesting, but you have to take a good shot at the back to have a contrast effect." Chen Kexin said casually.
"That depends on your directorial skills. I believe you can take a good shot." Qiao Feng smiled and patted Chen Kexin on the shoulder, and said in encouragement.
Chen Kexin nodded confidently, said thank you, and then stared at the monitor more attentively.
When Qiao Feng walked to the other side and talked to Zhong Chuhong who was wearing makeup, he had already heard it off because he was dissatisfied with a certain picture and shouted loudly, asking for a new shot.
"How is it, is it good?" Zhong Chuhong looked up at Qiao Feng who was walking towards him, asking with anticipation.
"It looks good, everything you wear is good." Qiao Feng gave a very vulgar and very rich answer.
However, this is indeed what Qiao Feng said in his heart. Zhong Chuhong looks good in everything she wears. And now she is wearing a red and blue plaid shirt with loose casual pants, white shoes, and neat short hair. It looks really good, and gives people a refreshing feeling that is different from the past.
"It's really good." Qiao Feng said affirmatively again.
"Hehe, it's good to look good." Zhong Chuhong smiled with a cute neck and shrank her neck. The goddess style was gone, and then pulled her shirt and said, "I have never worn a shirt like this. I've been worried that it would look bad."
"I'm worried that Zhang Shuping is responsible for the styling and art guidance. Don't you say that the styling he made is very good? And my references are included, why don't you make you ugly?" Qiao Feng pointed at Zhong Chuhong's nose in a funny way.
"But they are just worried." Zhong Chuhong said coquettishly.
"Okay, then I can't do anything about it." Qiao Feng smiled bitterly.
"Hehe." Zhong Chuhong smiled unimportantly again.
............
More than half an hour later, the opening shot was finally finished. The crew packed up their things and moved the equipment to another room next to them.
The house just now was specially made for old age and then used for shooting. Although there are not many shots that require shooting, it is a must.
The story of the movie tells a story about a couple who moved into a new apartment and they were about to get married, so they decorated the two floors of the dilapidated apartment as a wedding room, and then a series of stories happened inside and outside the house.
This house will be the most important scene of the story. Although the dilapidated look of the house before decoration is not used for many ears, it will also be used, and it is quite important.
Especially Chen Kexin told Qiao Feng that he wanted to have a certain right to create himself, that is, he would want to further create the script outside the script given by Qiao Feng. Qiao Feng agreed. Anyway, there is a storyboard script, and Chen Kexin wanted to shoot what he wanted to shoot after finishing the script.
If you take good photos at that time, use them. If you don’t have good photos, just give up. It’s no big deal.
The trouble is that I don’t know if Chen Kexin will use the extra scenes, so I just keep the old house directly.
If this were not the case, in order to save costs, the house should be released after taking all the shots of the old house.
"Be careful, be careful, tie the safety rope and let the people below avoid falling and hitting them." Chen Kexin directed the staff to fiddle with the shooting props, repeatedly reminded him to be careful. After he said there was no problem, he turned his head and asked, "Mr. Qiao, Miss Zhong, are you ready?"
"It's ready."
"Okay, let's start shooting."
Chapter completed!
