"Attention, all units!"
"One mirror, one time!"
"Start!"
With the order of Zhuke, the staff of all units of the whole "burst drummer" crew started immediately.
Lighting, photography, etc. are aimed at the actors on the stage at the first time.
At night, in a dark music practice room, Damien chazare, the future best director Oscar winner, plays Andrew Neyman, a 19-year-old freshman in the play.
At the moment, Andrew practiced jazz drums alone.
Born in a single parent family, he aims at legendary musician Charlie Parker and wants to become a top jazz drummer.
Bang Bang~
The sound of the drum being knocked is heard all the time.
At this time, Fletcher, known as the "devil mentor" in the regular school orchestra, suddenly came in.
Seeing this, Andrew could not help but stop.
"What's your name?" Fletcher, bald, asked flatly.
"Andrew, Andrew Neyman!"
"What grade?" Fletcher continued
"Freshman."
Fletcher bald: "do you know who I am?"
"Yes, sir!"
"So, you know I'm looking for musicians?" Fletcher asked
"Yes, sir."
How can Andrew, who is known as the devil's mentor and is dedicated to pursuing his music dream, not know?
There's no doubt that Andrew really wants to join Fletcher's band.
"So how do you stop?" Fletcher said faintly.
Andrew immediately picked up the drumstick and knocked on his best piece of drum music, whiplash.
In fact, the name of the movie "the crackling drummer" is actually the biggest egg of the whole movie.
The English name of "pop drummer" is "whiplash", whiplash means "whip rope; The tip of a whip; Whiplash is also the song that the protagonist Andrew practices constantly.
"Fortunately, I saw this movie more than once in my last life. Even now, I still remember a lot of drumbeats clearly. With the help of the legendary Bob Dylan, I finally restored whiplash. No, even better." Zhuke looked at the performance on the field and said in his heart.
In the original time and space, "whiplash" is a piece of drum music, which was created by the director, um, Damien chazele, who plays the No.1 man now.
Damien chazare, the future Harvard University graduate, is not in vain.
Bang ~ Bang ~ bang!
The music of the drum is constantly ringing in our ears.
Zucker watched their performance intently.
"Did I let you continue to play (drum) Fletcher said.
"I'm sorry. I thought you said why don't I fight?" Andrew was a little nervous.
"What do you mean you're sitting there like a monkey? Show me your basic skills. " Fletcher's venomous tongue attribute was triggered, and he took off his jacket by the way.
Smell speech, Andrew where still can sit to live, still a little excited at the moment.
"Double rock."
"Double, I want double, double up!"
"Come on! Come on, come on... "
Andrew, like a puppet, obeyed the instructions of Fletcher, the devil's mentor, beating the drum with high morale.
But!
After a period of drumming, Andrew looked up and saw that Fletcher was no longer in the music studio!
He's gone!
All of a sudden, Andrew was very frustrated.
He is eager, eager and eager to join Fletcher!
Dong~~~~
Just then, the door of the music studio was pushed open again and Fletcher came in again. At that moment, Andrew's heart was rekindled with hope.
"Oh, I forgot my coat."
Fletcher suddenly, and suddenly disappeared, leaving the hero Andrew here to blame himself.
"Ka...!"
Jock called to stop.
"Simmons, you really deserve to be an old actor. The rhythm and facial expression are quite in place Zucker praised it.
Hearing the speech, Simmons said with a smile: "thank you for Mr. Wald's praise. Although I haven't played any important role in my acting career, I have been involved in more than 50 films. Well, I admit that almost all of them are supporting roles with limited lines."
Simmons cherished the opportunity to perform.
In the movie spider man, Simmons plays the boss of Peter Parker's newspaper. Although there are still few scenes, he makes the role one of the highlights.
No, in the future Spider Man series, he has won the role of newspaper boss.
"Damien, your performance is totally out of order. The hero Andrew will be nervous when facing the devil's mentor Fletcher, but what about you? You are really nervous! And it's out of character. It's really nervous. " Zucker's criticism.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Wald. I'll be OK!" Damien made a loud promise.
He didn't make excuses because it was his first time in a movie, but he accepted it very frankly.
Zhuke nodded to himself: "in the future, it's not unreasonable for him to be the winner of the best director Oscar."
The first trial, failed!
It's nothing. How many shots can there be? Most of Hollywood's good movies are produced by trial and error.
Of course, even if the show is a success, Zucker will shoot more.
You don't see the great director James Cameron. In order to keep improving, as long as it's a play, no matter whether the result is good or bad, at least five films will be shot.
In his words: "if you don't force them, they won't know the energy in themselves!"
Zhu Keshen agreed.
......
Shooting continues.
Andrew did, and he finally joined Fletcher's band.
But on the first day, Andrew deeply felt the strictness of the devil's mentor. No, it should be!
All rhythms and intonation must be exactly the same. No matter how fast the rhythm, Fletcher can hear a tiny difference. Any mistake, you'll be kicked out of the band.
Even when Fletcher was demanding, Andrew worked hard to get his mentor's approval.
Fletcher said: "at that time, Charlie Parker was forced out by his teacher hitting him on the head with a cymbal."
Soon, Andrew felt the "love" from his mentor Fletcher.
"Shit!"
"I told you about Charlie Parker, how he became a legendary musician, Charlie Parker? Joe Jones banged a cymbal on his head
"It's like this!!"
Boom~~~~
Because of a bad beat, Fletcher threw the chair directly at Andrew and beat time with his face.
The expression is extremely fierce!
Andrew, the leading actor, was stunned!
Unwilling to return home, Andrew kept practicing until he was bleeding and couldn't pick up the drumstick.
"Extreme and paranoia are the common characteristics of many artists."
Andrew's extreme and paranoia also brought him opportunities. In the assessment performance, he was ordered to replace the core drummer who had to read the score to play.
Also because of this opportunity, Andrew passed the examination and took over the position of the core drummer.
.......
One night, Andrew ran into Fletcher in a bar.
Fletcher said a sentence that made Andrew wake up: "there are no two words in English that are more harmful than" not bad. "
Only extreme and paranoid, can reach the peak!
.......
Fifteen days passed.
The film "the cracker drummer" has completed all the shooting stages.
Compared with the original time and space, the 19 day shooting cycle of director Damien chazere himself is still a few days shorter. It's not that Zucker is better than him, but because the configuration of his crew is much better than Damien's grassroots team.
After all, Zhuke is the boss of Wald pictures. Who is not around Zhuke?
"The first watch" is presented. Ask for a ticket~
