Chapter 1225

"... I try to present the kind of selflessness at the critical point of artistic perfection. For outsiders, it's crazy; But for the person concerned, that's perfect. " Damien finally calmed down, or finally regained his sense, and began to talk about his creative intention. "In some moments, we can be integrated with art, regardless of each other, just as the whole soul lives in the melody of music and the film."

With that, Damien's vision went crazy, completely without the image of an honest otaku just now. This reminds lanli of Alfonso Caron. Although they have different styles, one is a music fanatic and the other is a technology addict, their insanity and enthusiasm are the same.

Lan Li suddenly found out, is it because of the physical relationship? The industry partners he attracts are all of similar styles, such as Damien chazere, Alfonso Caron, Tony Kaye, and the Coen brothers. They all look like lunatics. They are desperate for their works, bursting with a unique enthusiasm and madness.

But when he thought about it carefully, Langley found that it was more often because of his own style that he attracted similar partners. The video of meeting Alfonso and the Grammy special award winning speech at the Almeida theater moved the Cohen brothers, Pioneer Village and Woody Allen to become Tony's introducers, and now Damien, The chance encounter of sneaking out in the middle of Oscar night.

So, is there chicken or egg first?

"What do you think, Lan Li?" Damien was a little nervous.

After all, it's lanli sitting in front of us. For Damien, the most popular top actors in Hollywood now are completely out of reach. All the knowledge about lanli comes from rumors. Among the rumors, lanli is a moody, arrogant and fastidious personality, which is not easy to get along with.

Lan Li's mind slowly settled down, and a smile rolled out of his eyes. "Yes, I agree." His attention has not left, nodded, agreed, "in some moments of performance, I will forget my existence, but really integrate into the role, into a wonderful state, showing a different performance quality."

"Buried alive" is like this, "love crazy" is like this, "anti-cancer me" is like this, and even the "gravity" and "drunken folk song" which have just been killed, the feeling of confusing the boundary between reality and illusion is extremely painful, but also extremely wonderful. The language is really indescribable, but it just makes people immersed in it and unable to extricate themselves.

Lan Li nodded slightly, as if to agree again. "To be honest, I miss the time before I shot my first work very much. You know, I need to play a character trapped in a coffin, so I spent eight hours lying in the coffin and really felt it

Slowly, Lan Li's thoughts fell into the memory, and then chuckled, "it's a stupid way, but it works. It really breaks the shackles of performance skills and integrates into it. If I do it again, I should do it again. " Then, Lan Li shrugged his shoulders and joked to himself, "after all, what other chance is there to experience the feeling of being buried alive?"

Damien pulled uneasily at the bow tie and cleared his throat.

Most of the time, he thought he was a madman, but now standing in front of lanli, he could only bow to the downwind. He just made up his mind for the picture lying in the coffin, and he shuddered and shivered for two times. Sure enough, rumor, blue is a vampire, this is absolutely not groundless.

Damien's liver is trembling. He's thinking, is he running away now? Or run away?

But on second thought, when he thought of his own work, Damien still insisted on staying where he was. There was no way. Who could make him a madman, who was desperate for his own work? What do you think of this work? Is there anyone willing to invest? "

Damien unconsciously adjusted his sitting posture, and the whole person was tense.

"No problem." Langley gave a positive answer.

Before he could finish what he said, Damien jumped up excitedly and grabbed his hair in disbelief. "Really? Wait, really? Ah! Ah, ah! I mean, thank you! Really? Are you serious? " After getting the confirmation of blue Li's nod again, Damien couldn't bear it any longer. He jumped and screamed, and expressed his joy all over. Finally, he grasped his fists tightly and growled, "ah!"

After more than two years of waiting and suffering, now the "pop drummer" project has finally found a breakthrough. Ecstatic, all of a sudden after the joy gushed out, he fell into a ecstatic gaffe.

After the ecstasy, he finally calmed down. After the real feeling came, he stood in the same place and was at a loss. He could not help rubbing his eyes with his right hand to hide his embarrassment and embarrassment. For a moment, the five flavors were so mixed that it was hard to describe. He finally calmed down and showed an astringent smile to Lan Li, "sorry, I mean, thank you."

There was a slight lump in his voice.

Blue Li showed a smile, gently jaw head, "I know what kind of feeling that is." It's not necessary to blame Damien. On the contrary, Langley likes Damien more. "I haven't said what I just said. Now we can talk about your needs."

Damien quickly sat down, gathered his knees together awkwardly, straightened his waist, and put his hands on his knees, like a clever schoolboy.

"I mean, what do you want. What production company or producer do you want me to pass the script to? " Lanli seriously expressed his ideas, for him, this is the first time, he is also feeling the stone across the river, "if I'm not familiar with it, maybe I can ask for some help through Joel and Ethan."

"Cohen?" Damien carefully inquired that when he saw that Langley gave a positive reply, Damien blinked his eyes and thought about it seriously. It seemed that he had been impacted too much, so he nodded his head to show his understanding.

Lan Li pursed a smile, and then said, "for the production cost, for the cast and so on, you have any requirements, please tell me, don't say that there are no requirements. We must first make a request, if the other party does not agree, then negotiate slowly, and show the bottom line at the beginning. This is not a wise behavior. "

Although lanli is not a professional producer, his understanding of film making is limited; But he was wise enough to negotiate.

Slightly stunned, Damien could not help rubbing his thigh quietly. His little action revealed his nervousness at the moment. He coughed twice and cleared his throat. "Well... I haven't made an accurate budget yet, but... I think, in order to ensure the smooth shooting, three million?"

Damien glanced at him secretly, but he was doomed to be disappointed. Without any change of expression, affirmation or opposition, he just watched him quietly. However, from another perspective, at least Langley didn't get angry or object, which is a positive signal.

"I hope I can participate in the post production, and the first cutting right must be mine; And the final changes and decisions, I have to participate in the discussion Damien's thoughts became clear and his words became firm.

After the shooting of a film, in the post production process, the editing right is crucial, not the direct work of the editor, but to participate in the editing ideas and ideas, which can fully reflect the creative intention of the director.

Generally speaking, the film has the right of first cut and final production. The so-called first cut right is the right to edit the first edition. The director can present his ideas to the film company and convince them that this is the best appearance; The right of final decision is literally the right to decide the final version.

This is the case with the American version of "the past of America", which has been criticized by countless people. The first cut right was Sergio's, but the final release version was edited beyond recognition.

For many new directors, they may not even have the right to cut. In Marvel movies, the directors have incomplete cutting rights. The first version must be completed according to the producers' ideas, and even the creative conception stage suffers from many constraints. This is why Marvel movies can form an assembly line operation, and it is not harmful to change the directors frequently.

Damien repeatedly stressed that his right of first cutting and creation is out of the protection of his works and the protection of his right of artistic creation.

As for the actors, to be honest, I don't have many ideas. After all, I can't find the money for the works, and I can't start looking for actors. But... "

Damien's eyes lit up slightly as his eyes fell on Langley. "But I think it would be better if you were willing to play in this work. First of all, your age and image are most in line with the idea, you are now a college student; Secondly, you can feel the madness and persistence of the character. "

"More importantly, you are an excellent actor. There is no doubt about that. I don't think anyone can be better and more suitable than you, but I don't know whether you can play drums. If you can play drums, it's perfect. You can really interpret the feeling of going crazy and blend it perfectly with art. "

With that, Damien began to describe the blueprint with great excitement. But gradually, he realized that he was just talking to himself. With Langley's current status and ability, he didn't need an independent work of an unknown director. How could he afford Langley?

Damien had an urge to bite off his tongue.
