Andre's smile just froze. He looked at Eaton, then at Langley. At last, he shook his head and looked up at the sky and sighed, "what kind of friends do I make?"
But Eaton's eyes widened and he was full of confusion. He didn't know what had just happened. He just cut in. Now looking at Andre's depressed face, he was innocent and confused, and could only look at lenley; But lanli didn't answer either. He just shook his head with a smile and denied it. Eaton didn't pursue it any more.
"So, what's the party about today?" Eaton is a big personality. Even if you don't understand it, you don't pursue it. Even if you're unhappy, you don't care. Even if you don't understand it, you don't tangle. "If it's because of Venice, I've already prepared those clothes and shipped them to Duke Hamilton's private residence in advance. At that time, you can choose them according to the weather."
August is coming to an end, which means September is not far away.
The global premiere ceremony of "gravity" will be held soon, first the global Premiere of Venice Film Festival, then the North American Premiere of Toronto Film Festival, and then the U.S. Premiere of New York Film Festival. Three waves of publicity of the film festival have landed, officially starting the awarding season.
However, Warner Bros. is more inclined to promote commercial films. The reason why they choose the premiere of the festival is mainly due to the appeal of Alfonso Caron and Langley hall in their professional fields.
So, in the next period of time, lanli will be busy again.
Venice Film Festival, which will also be the second European film festival that Langley will participate in this year.
Different from Cannes, Venice is a big city, or a tourist resort. Many British nobles have private residences here. The Duke of Hamilton, even one of them, learned that Langley was going to Venice to attend the film festival this year, so Andrey opened the door of his private residence near the river to welcome Langley to stay.
As the private stylist of Langley, Eaton will be responsible for all the red carpet modeling and premiere costumes of Langley. After finishing his work early, he consigned all the costumes to Hamilton's private residence——
Eaton and Langley are no strangers there. When they were studying in the past, they went to Venice for many holidays, all of them living in the private residence of the Duke of Hamilton.
One of them was the long holiday of St. Patrick's day. A group of them stayed in Venice. After the holiday, they still didn't go back. Finally, Andre's second brother John came to Venice in person to cover for them. It also became one of the happiest days in my youth, carefree and carefree.
Blue Li gently closed jaw, said to understand, "in September, are you going to Venice?"
"I need to go to fashion week and this year will not be over." Eaton shook his head. "I'm planning to start a private party for fashion week next February to further expand my brand influence."
"It's rare that you are so proactive now." Langley jokingly said that in terms of social relations, Eaton has always been a relatively passive party, and the marketing of personal brand has never been able to enter the next stage. "Just in time, you can have a talk with Andre."
"..." Andre looked at blue Li with question marks.
"What?" Eaton, on the other hand, breathed out with a little excitement.
Andreton was discontented. "What's your reaction? Shouldn't I be the one to show my dislike? There is still a sequence of events. "
Eaton immediately closed his mouth and pretended that nothing had happened.
But Lan Li did not give face to smile, "I'm serious. Eaton, now Andre has officially started to invest in film projects. If you have the opportunity, you can actually cooperate with some Hollywood films as a starting point for publicity. "
"It's like the British Royal movies like 'the king's speech' and 'the Queen'. The suits in them are very particular. They have to be really expert. In this respect, I don't think anyone is more suitable than you; Besides, you can also participate in the costume design of some modern British films, or the works of World War II. It's a very interesting process
Lanli was not joking. He was very serious about his ideas and opinions.
After "pop drummer", Andre once again participated in the production of "Night Walker". There is no doubt that he has begun to enter the Hollywood industry.
If the situation of "Jurassic Park" and "interstellar crossing" were not too complicated, he would even suggest Andre to join them; However, now Andre only has capital and status, but he is not familiar with the rules of the industry. The muddy waters of Warner Bros., Universal Pictures and legend pictures should not be mixed in.
Naturally, Andre needs to build up a relatively close cooperation team. Thomas tour, the Weinstein brothers and so on all come here in this way, which plays a vital role in gaining a foothold in Hollywood——
The so-called team, including all the staff in front of and behind the scenes, should never underestimate the important role of the staff behind the scenes, especially for the self-made independent production companies.
Eaton has been looking for the further development of its personal brand. If it can cooperate with the film, it will be a good display platform, at least according to lenley. Especially for some British films which pay attention to the details, the position of fashion design becomes more and more important. Now the top professionals in Hollywood are far from enough. This is exactly the field of Eaton.
So, today, Langley invited Andre and Eaton to have a talk. If they can reach a cooperation, it's best; If not, it doesn't hurt.
Andre immediately entered a state of thinking, because he knew that Langley was not an aimless personality.
But Eaton didn't think so deeply. After a moment's meditation, he blurted out, "is this really appropriate? I haven't cooperated with the film crew. I don't even have the chance to watch. I don't know exactly what the operation process is. Can I really be competent? What's more, is it not doing business? Is this really effective for my brand promotion? "
In fact, the last time Langley returned to London, Eaton thought about it, and mentioned it to Langley and Andre, but only mentioned it. After that, there was no following. Now that the opportunity really came, Eaton became hesitant.
"It's very simple. It's all right to tailor according to the age background, the character's characteristics and the character's character." Lanli said with a smile that the costume is actually a part of the performance, a very important part, so lanli is no stranger. "Does it sound very familiar? In fact, it's not much different from your daily work. The only difference is that now you are tailor-made for the characters in the script. "
"But now, through your red carpet, I have gradually opened up some situations in Hollywood. If I change my job to design clothes for movies, will it confuse people's ideas and opinions? That's not appropriate? " Eaton's personality is like this, always easy to think too much, in an instant, he has thought about countless possibilities.
But in the face of such a problem, lanli has no way to give an accurate answer, "I'm not sure. After all, it's not my major. But if you are interested, I can let Andy arrange it. You go to Burbank to watch the fashion designer's work process. You can find some inspiration, make your own judgment, or communicate with them. If it's not suitable, it's OK. "
Eaton didn't answer immediately, lost in thought.
Andre, however, took the initiative to start the conversation. Now he has come to understand the deep meaning behind the matter. He has a more long-term and macro perspective than Eaton. "Do you mean that I have to set up my own production team? From actors and directors to all the people behind the scenes? "
"It's not necessarily a fixed team, but it's better to have a team that you are familiar with and trust, which is very important for the initial stage of an independent production company. This time, you choose to cooperate with Sony classic. The production team is selected by them. Your control is still too weak. "
Later words, even if don't need lanli to explain, Andre also immediately understood.
The particularity of "pop drummer" lies in that lanli is the producer, and Sony's classic production team is relatively united, focusing on the film production process without any problems. The overall cooperation is very happy.
But Langley can't be a producer every time. Even if he is a nominal producer, he doesn't have so much energy to do everything, which means that Andre must have more effective means of intervention and management. Even if it's not to manage the film production process, it's also to control cost and quality.
As for whether Andre can be satisfied with the partnership between legendary pictures and Warner Bros. before, he still hopes to be further involved like Thomas tour. This is the question that needs to be considered in the future.
Andre gently agreed. Between the two sentences, he made a decision. "That's it. You and Andy say hello. I need his help in the next period of time."
Now that we have decided to set up a film production company, we should plan well. Although Andre seems to be a slob on the surface, he is not so smart and wise as the leader of a world-class whisky distillery. When he was young, Andre was a carefree young master. After many years of reunion, lanli remained unchanged, but Andre was different.
"By the way, has your production company been registered? What's the name? " Lan Li just remembers this matter now and asks about it.
"Sisyphus." Andre replied.
