Chapter 1404

In Damien chazere's play, he invented a top music school called shelver college, but it is actually the Juilliard conservatory in real life. It is one of the top professional music theaters in North America and even in the world, and the gold lettered signboard is the biggest business card.

In order to truly present the style of shelver college, Damien tried to communicate with the Juilliard Conservatory of music, hoping that the crew could complete the field shooting work in the Academy.

Unexpectedly but reasonably, after learning that it was an independent work starring Langley hall, the Juilliard conservatory generously turned on the green light and allowed the crew to enter the teaching building of the college to complete all shooting. At this time, it was summer vacation. Although some students stayed in the college to study, most of them still had a holiday, which also provided convenient conditions for the crew to shoot.

But also because it's summer vacation, shooting at Lincoln Center becomes impossible. Summer is the season of the most intensive, lively and busy performances. The schedule of all performance venues has been full for more than half a year or more. Even if Andre Hamilton comes out in person, he can't make an appointment to the venue.

Fortunately, the student union of Juilliard Conservatory of music actively completed the arrangement.

Alice Talley hall in Lincoln Center is the central venue of the chamber music association and the New York Film Festival. It is located in the interior of the Juilliard Conservatory of music. It serves as a performance venue for students all the year round. A small number of performances can be adjusted. In addition, rehearsal performances can also be changed temporarily.

After a series of rearrangements, the burst drummer crew was given three days to shoot - not including the night. It's very, very hard for the crew to solve all the problems.

For Damien, it was unthinkable. Just relying on a name, just like a business card, can solve most of the problems unimpeded, even do not need to spend too much time and energy, money spending has been reduced to an acceptable range.

What's more, he was worried that the Juilliard conservatory would refuse because the story of "pop drummer" distorted the image of jazz and teachers into darkness. Peter Erskine, the drummer who is going to dub behind the scenes for Langley, has a little bit of a word about Damien's play. What's more, shelver college is a real Juilliard conservatory?

But they didn't. Not only not, but the door is open.

No wonder big name actors are still so popular in independent film circles, even if their target market is not box office at all. The integration of resources, the expansion of contacts and the authority of fame are all added values that money can't measure. Even art must exist on the basis of life.

Rooney, Paul and Ryan walk into the architecture of Juilliard conservatory, which is a mixture of postmodern style and Victorian style. The traces of a hundred years can hardly be found. It is full of modern and contemporary concise and neat atmosphere. You can capture the texture of New York City from every corner.

But the wonderful thing is that Manhattan's bustle and noise seem to be completely isolated. It seems that you can enter a completely different world with only one door in and out. There is an indescribable classical charm flowing in the air, elegant and profound, quiet and far-reaching, which can not be accurately described, but makes people feel comfortable.

Maybe it's the trumpet key chain hanging on the student's locker, maybe it's the empty rehearsal room full of musical instruments, maybe it's the violin sound coming from the corner upstairs, maybe it's the information about the band's rehearsal and performance on the bulletin board... From all aspects and the details in the corner, it seems that you can really feel the music flowing slowly under your feet.

During the walk, I could not help but hold my breath and try my best to make myself quiet, for fear that my noise and movement would destroy this unique tranquility.

Shed and reality are different after all.

Even if the scenes built in the studio are more real, even if they are copied in a scale of one to one, they can't replace the reality after all, just as it's hard to paint the skin of a tiger, the flavor of life and the precipitation of history can't be imitated, and the film effect naturally has a deviation.

Some directors always insist on shooting on the spot, which is the reason.

Despite the lack of guidance, but after a while, three people still successfully found the location of the crew. Because the whole crew is moving from a large rehearsal room to a separate practice room. Even a sparrow sized crew still has nearly 30 staff members, and the mighty mobile team is hard to ignore.

"Hey, Rooney!"

Damien saw the three people coming in front of him at a glance, and he took the initiative to say hello. His shy smile was a little stiff, but he was still cheerful and friendly enough. Then his eyes fell on the two people next to him, and he kindly introduced himself, "good afternoon, I'm Damien."

"Ryan."

"Paul."

Damien pursed the corners of his mouth with a look of pleasure. "I know, of course I know. I've seen your work. I mean, the work of the two of you. "

"Thank you." Ryan gently jaw head said friendly, cold joked, "if there is a chance in the future, I hope to cooperate.". Although I haven't seen your work for the time being, I believe that lanli's choice will never go wrong. Since he has cooperated with you, it means that I have got the pass. "

Ryan missed the conversation between Rooney and Paul just now, so he didn't understand the situation. At this time, he was much more relaxed.

But after all, Rooney was still a little worried and asked, "is everything ok with the shooting?"

Damien didn't think much. He nodded with a smile. "It's going well. Everything's going well. Lanli's performance is really excellent. I think 'buried alive' and 'detached' are enough shock, but only when we watch live can we know what a real performance is With that, Damien rubbed his hands excitedly.

"We just shot a big play. The chemical reaction was so wonderful that the performance and shooting became a kind of torment. I mean, in a right way, it presented the essence of the whole play and made people tormented, but after the torment, it was pleasant and smooth. Lanli is a rare actor, isn't he

Damien's excitement and joy are clearly expressed through language, and people can't help looking forward to the play, such as Ryan; But at the same time, we can also feel that Damien didn't notice any abnormality, as if everything was normal, which made Rooney recall the state of Langley just now, and the uneasiness surged up again.

Paul noticed that Rooney was absent-minded and uneasy. When they stepped forward, he took the initiative to fall down, came to Rooney's side, and comforted him in a low voice, "don't worry, Langley knows what he's doing."

Rooney raised her head, met Paul's eyes, gave a smile, and then nodded her head in agreement. "Let's go and see what Langley is doing. Damien's description is really full of expectations. I've already begun to envy the audience who will see it in the cinema in the future. "

A little joke made Paul laugh.

The group of people soon came to the single practice room, but everyone was hustle and bustle to be blocked outside the door, because the practice room space is too narrow.

The whole room is about six meters long and four meters wide. It covers an area of less than 24 square meters. At this time, there are already a Simmons mattress, a set of drums, two cameras, two lights and so on. In addition, there are three staff members and a lanli. The limited space is so full that we can't even find a place to stay.

At this time, the staff are busy adjusting the position of the camera and the angle of the light.

While lanli lies on Simmons, with his upper body flat on the mattress and his lower body on the wall. The whole person presents an inverted back supine position; You can notice that he is listening to music with earphones in his ears, and is slowly immersed in the world of music.

The plot of the next film is consistent with that of the previous one.

After suffering from Fletcher's devastating blow and insult, Andrew learned from the bitter experience. He is definitely not the type of giving up easily, let alone the type of giving up. Therefore, he decided to break and then stand up.

He simply moved his dormitory to the practice room - mattresses, toiletries, music scores, albums, that's all. He didn't plan to leave here until he really practiced the track "whipping" successfully.

This fierce force broke out for the first time and paved the way for the subsequent story; At the same time, this fierce force is so similar to Lan Li who trapped himself in the coffin and the light box.

Now Langley is listening to buddy rich. Not for the plot service, but for the performance preparation, he needs to truly capture the "whipping" rhythm and Inspiration of buddy Ricky's performance. Only by truly understanding the difficulty of the repertoire can he truly present the pain and struggle in the performance process.

Seeing this, Ryan is ready to go in and say hello. Unexpectedly, Paul and Rooney both stop, which gives Ryan a fright.

For Ryan, who has never worked with Langley before, he can't understand the current situation at all. Paul explained that "Langley needs a little time to figure out his role carefully before he goes into the official shooting." Then Paul talked about what he saw during the shooting of "speed and passion 5" and "transcendence".

Unconsciously, Ryan thought of the comment of the New York Times: is he a genius in the spotlight or a lunatic behind the scenes?
