Tacit understanding, in the process of performance can indeed produce more possibilities, the collision of chemical reactions can often stimulate more creative inspiration sparks.
Lanli and felicity are just like this. In the process of communication, running in and adjusting with each other, they can always find wonderful sparks in those trivial details, such as a look, a figure, a walk, a pause... And then the whole performance gradually becomes full and vivid.
Shooting is still not easy, camera position, lighting orientation, panoramic layout and so on need to be adjusted according to the performance of the actors; But the shooting atmosphere is obviously focused and efficient, which is true for all staff——
In the previous shooting, there were constant mistakes, repeated shots and pauses, but no one knew what happened and how to adjust it to get on the right track. It was like a headless fly was stuck in a glass can, rushing left and right. Apart from being dull or dull, the frustration was not exciting.
Now the shooting, all the work has become clear, you can feel that we are working in the same direction, little by little change progress, step by step close to the goal, that sense of achievement is irreplaceable, easy to focus attention, wholeheartedly into the work.
The situation is different after all.
The first scene still hasn't finished quickly. Garris is looking for the arrangement and combination of different angles and different depth of field, hoping to set the tone for the scene frame of the whole film. On the one hand, he verifies his shooting idea, and on the other hand, he makes fine-tuning according to the actors to determine the best presentation scheme.
Before and after, the first scene was filmed 29 times, which finally ended the work of the first scene of "grand theft one" on the first day.
When Garris officially announced the "completion" of the first play, the whole crew cheered. Obviously, no one expected that the first scene would be so hard; Whether this means that the next shooting will be a tough battle or not, at least the work of the first scene is over.
It's not just the staff who feel the pressure.
It's said that after all the shooting work on the first day, executive producer Jason mcgatlin made a special trip to Garris to express his concern about the shooting difficulty, progress and budget of the crew - the first scene is definitely not the most difficult one, but if the first scene is what it is, and the subsequent shooting also continues this style, It must have been a disaster for the crew. Especially in terms of budget.
Not only that, Jason also specifically mentioned Langley: in order to make a "irrelevant" play so repeatedly, it may be no problem to make art films, but it is not a good thing to make commercial films. The pressure of actors will multiply, and the performance process will become more and more difficult.
No one can be sure how the rumor came out. Many of the original words were distorted and tampered with from word to word. However, some people vowed that "Langley would not like it". This is Jason's original words, which became a lethal weapon to suppress Garris and ended the conversation.
No one dares to offend Langley.
Maybe Lan Li is approachable, maybe he is kind, maybe he is humorous, maybe he doesn't care about the gossip, maybe those things have no influence at all... But the reality is that no one wants to offend Lan Li, even if it's just a potential possibility.
Gareth Edwards, of course, understood that.
According to the rumor, someone witnessed Garris standing at the door of the room, smoking three cigarettes after seeing Jason leave the room, staying outside alone for a long time, forcing the crew members waiting for a meeting in the room to hang out there - and the room was very quiet.
As we all know, conflicts often arise in large-scale film groups, especially in brand commercial films such as Marvel series or Star Wars series, because the power of the producer is superior to that of the director. In the process of the work of the film group, the forced intervention of the producer is easy to produce many unexpected conflicts, and the director who lacks the right to speak is easy to have differences with the actors, Finally, it forms a vicious circle which is difficult to reconcile.
This is also one of the biggest worries of the "grand theft one" crew before it starts. Besides, besides the power distribution between the producer and the director, there is a real blue Li who is superior to everyone - even if Catherine Kennedy is in front of blue Li, they don't know what will happen.
But few people can expect that the conflict broke out on the first day. For people who eat melons, this is absolutely exciting; However, for the members of the cast, it is the beginning of disaster. So, what will happen next? Even if you don't have to stand in line - in fact, it's easy to stand in line. Everyone chooses to stand behind Lan Li, which solves all the problems, but the atmosphere on the set will be terrible.
No one wants a treadmill environment.
The tit for tat between the producer and the director is common in Hollywood, which has numerous development possibilities in the future; But most of the time, it ends with the director's compromise, which is the simplest and quickest solution - that's why Marvel series prefers second tier and even third tier directors, and that's why Katherine Kennedy still chooses Garris as the director after a round trip.
So, how would Garris choose?
After the end of the three cigarettes, Garris turned back to the room and continued the crew meeting. The meeting went very smoothly, and no waves happened. The same was true of that night: Garris's silence and calmness seemed to have accepted the reality, and did not make any resistance and response.
The gourd eaters who are looking forward to something can only come back disappointed: such a strong beginning ends in such a boring way.
But it's not the end of the story, obviously.
The next morning, before he started shooting, Garris went to lanli's personal lounge alone. They stayed in the lounge for less than five minutes. Then Garris left. After a little while, lanli was ready to go to work.
Originally, this is nothing at all. The director talks with the actors before shooting, discusses the parts and scenes, and plans ahead of time for the day's work. This is basically the normal process of the crew's daily work. Therefore, Garris's action did not attract any attention in the crew.
But a few people have noticed that in the process of the day's intense shooting work, Langley's managers Roy rockery and Jason mcgatlin left the set and had a private exchange for a period of time - it didn't seem like a big deal, and nothing happened after that.
However, the rumor has reappeared.
Before the shooting, Garris went directly to lanli and asked him if he was not satisfied with the first day's work and whether their working mode needed to be changed.
Such reckless behavior caused a cry of surprise among word of mouth. If the rumor is true, does Garris have a brain?
His action, in the end, is threatening Jason, let the producer shut up; It's still forcing and embarrassing lanli - even if lanli really said that through Jason, in the face of Garris's face-to-face questioning, lanli can't admit it or damage his image. No matter what the result is, Garris will be like Zhu Bajie looking at himself in the mirror. He is not a person inside or outside, offending the producers and the actors.
But it is obvious that the melon eaters are not Lan Li, and they do not understand Lan Li.
"Ha ha, you should ask me if I'm a double faced person, face to face and back to back. It's more direct, and I may be more flustered, so as to show my feet."
According to the rumor, this is lanli's original words - because the stylists and hairdressers of lanli were at the scene at that time, but the credibility of the rumor depends on different people's opinions.
Obviously, instead of being furious as expected, Langley had a serious and in-depth discussion with Garris. Then he comforted and encouraged Garris, expressed his support for Garris to continue shooting according to his own rhythm and pace, and finally produced a work in line with Garris's expectations.
"But I must stress that budget control is very important. I don't care, but you need to know what you're doing It's the only way that Langley can explain to Garris - don't forget, Langley is also the producer of grand theft one, and he understands the importance of budget control.
After the conversation, Garris left the rest room in a happy mood, and the next day's work was smooth without any negative impact; Soon after, Roy found Jason, and they had a private conversation. No one knew about the secret conversation between them. But to be sure, there were no more waves in the follow-up, and the small twists and turns seemed to disappear without a trace.
It can be imagined that Lan Li certainly does not like someone behind his own name "fox pretending tiger power", especially after the "interstellar crossing" infighting; At the same time, Jason certainly doesn't like Langley's interference in the management of producers, especially in budget control, but the game between the two sides is not so simple.
It's not that "east wind overwhelms west wind" can solve the problem. What's more, both sides need to compromise and compromise with each other to find a comfortable area that both sides can accept, so as to ensure the smooth operation of the film crew. "Grand theft one" is the real key.
What if the negotiation and cooperation fail? Then, it is likely to be a tragic situation of "one shot and two scattered", and "future water world" is the best negative case; And then "Ranger solo" in 2018 was another bloody tragedy. The end result is that both sides lose.
However, judging from the current situation of "grand theft one", Roy and Jason should have reached a consensus, and there is no division for the time being. It is not clear whether Jason will bow down and compromise or Roy will make peace. In addition to the two parties, other people who eat melons have no way to know.
The only clue is that after the meeting with Roy, Jason made a five minute call to Katherine Kennedy. That's all.
