​​

For Evan Bell, it has never been difficult to apologize, because when even saints make mistakes, there is no need to be unwilling to admit their mistakes for the sake of face.

​​

The "Juno" crew had already started filming for three days before, and Evan Bell felt that something was wrong the more he filmed, and it didn't break out until today. Don't underestimate these three days of work. The coordination of all departments of the entire crew is indispensable. The shooting of a movie is not something that can be done by one person - even if Christopher Nolan spent six thousand dollars in school For the US dollar to shoot the film "Following", there must also be coordination in many aspects such as director, photography, and actors. Therefore, it is very easy for the director to say "the previous film can't be used", but it means that the previous hard work of the staff is wasted. That's why the Best Picture award is important.

​​

So Evan Bell must apologize to the staff, which is not only an affirmation of their conscientious work, but also an acknowledgement of their dereliction of duty.

​​

Although this has never happened before, the crew members have been working with Evan Bell for a long time, and some people have even started filming with Evan Bell since "Love Notebook". . Therefore, everyone is not surprised at Evan Bell's attitude of daring to admit mistakes and apologize. If it wasn't for the fact that he had to get busy again at this time-the phone in his hand was still on the phone, it is estimated that many people would ridicule Evan. - Two words from Bell.

​​

However, in the eyes of the actors who joined the Evan Bell crew for the first time, this look was completely different. Although it is said that Hollywood is a producer system, the biggest unspoken rule of studio directors has never changed. There are only a handful of actors who dare to fight against the director and still be able to please them. In other words, the director is a unique existence on the set, although now It is almost impossible for the director to beat someone on the set, but it is not uncommon for the director to have a bad temper and spread to others. And Evan Bell has shown a new attitude.

​​

It has been said before that Evan Bell's testimonials for the behind-the-scenes staff who won the best adapted screenplay and the best original soundtrack at the Oscars were all for show, but even aside from Evan Bell's positive role in the screenwriter's strike Needless to say, just by looking at the attitude of Evan Bell working on the set, you can clearly feel that the entire atmosphere of the crew where Evan Bell is the director and producer is indeed different.

​​

Today, Evan Bell is even more expensive as the world's top director. At the age of 25, he won the Oscar for best director and completed the director's slam. However, he is still not arrogant or impetuous, and can clearly maintain his original intention. , and even apologized for his mistakes. This perseverance and perseverance is especially precious in such a colorful dye vat in Hollywood.

​​

Ellen Page is indeed impressed by Evan Bell. This may be the charisma, not relying on lip service-although Evan Bell's eloquence has always been very good, but the style of conduct is the real essence . If someone says that one day in the future, Evan Bell can be a great director like Steven Spielberg, George Lucas, Martin Scorsese, Francis Ford Coppola, Alan Peggy would definitely vote yes.

​​

"Evan, don't want all the film from the previous three days? Really?" Robert Faris was obviously still in disbelief. There was a lot of content shot in the previous three days, and all the film was not needed. This is definitely a red fruit. of waste.

​​

Evan Bell gave Teddy Bell and Eden Hudson the task of finding the props, and apparently took time off. He patted Robert Faris on the shoulder, "I don't want it all. Going to change the style and reshoot all the scenes, do you think it is necessary to stay?"

​​

"All reshoots? What style are you going to use?" Robert Faris, Evan Bell's official cameraman, just won the Oscar for Best Cinematography not long ago. The understanding is also very deep, and there are many parts in harmony with Evan Bell, so he captured the key points of Evan Bell's words at once.

​​

Evan Bell nodded, "I plan to use a strong visual contrast, the color of the entire background is a little darker and more complicated, of course, not too dark. Then, by focusing, the brightest colors are presented." It's a more conceptual way of expressing it, but Robert Faris got it right away.

​​

"You intend to use this contrast to bring out the feeling of sunshine?" Robert Faris asked, Evan Bell nodded vigorously, "Then the whole shooting method must be changed."

​​

This is a brand-new way of shooting. When shooting "Little Sunshine" before, the overall tone was lively and light, and the warmth was conveyed from every angle of the picture. But "Junot" Evan Bell didn't plan to do this, because it involves the abortion controversy, teenage pregnancy and other slightly depressing issues. If all the sunshine, it will not be able to highlight the real optimism.

​​

The dark background color is actually the environmental background representing the society, or directly, it is the endless traps in the society and the tens of thousands of negative thoughts in the mind; Positive part. Through this way of contrast, the feeling of one and two sides of the thing is presented, and then the focus is used to let people focus their thoughts on the positive and optimistic focus.

​​

This is very particular about the use of color. In simple terms, a whole piece of black, a whole piece of red, the background is black and the focus is red, which is different; and the background is gray, the focus is red, or the background is brown, and the focus is yellow, which is another the difference. This has a great impact on the effect of the whole picture.

​​

"Then you should also hand over the costume design team." Robert Faris was the first to shout.

​​

Evan Bell pulled Robert Faris to the camera, "I will say it myself in the costume design team, you try to focus first."

​​

Before and after, Evan Bell and Robert Faris discussed for nearly a quarter of an hour, then Robert Faris discussed with the entire photography team alone, and Evan Bell went to discuss with the clothing design team. Fortunately, since the filming of "Juno" itself is a modern drama, there is a wide range of choices, and it will be much faster to find clothes.

​​

Since Evan Bell changed almost the entire director's thoughts, the execution of the entire crew had to change, and it was obviously impossible to continue shooting on the same day. However, the sharpening of the knife did not cut the woodwork by mistake, and it took another two days to prepare, which made the crew ready again.

​​

Before six o'clock in the morning, Evan Bell arrived at the filming location with the crew and said with a smile, "Well, today is the official opening ceremony of the 'Juno' crew, and everything starts today."

​​

The filming location at this time was the door of Poly's house in the play. Evan Bell still chose the scene where Juno told Poly that he was pregnant. In fact, the shooting of this scene was very difficult. Both Peggy and Michael Cera were tested very rigorously. But today is not the real opening ceremony. Everyone has been running in for five days before, so it is not a big problem to start with this scene.

​​

In the play, there is a lawn in front of Poly's house that is not so neat. It rained in Vancouver yesterday, and the whole ground turned dark blue, but the crew didn't think it was enough, so they watered it twice, and then the staff also spilled it. Lots of litter and leaves, darkening the color of the entire background.

​​

A bicycle—that belongs to Juneau—is parked on the bike path next to the lawn. On the lawn, there was a round carpet with a brown bottom. Although it was slightly different from what Evan Bell had sketched before, the tiger head in front of it fit perfectly. On the carpet, there is a chestnut-brown sofa. In order to find this sofa, Teddy Bell even made a trip to Toronto. On the left is a round table of the same color with a lamp on it; on the right is a table lamp. There is a dark green tube that resembles a fireplace chimney.

​​

This small area is actually a part of the living room at home, but it is on the open lawn, which looks out of place.

​​

Ellen Page and Michael Cera's clothes have also changed slightly Ellen Page has not changed much, just changed the sweater vest to a red one, and then prepared it for her An old-fashioned Sherlock Holmes pipe; Michael Cera has changed a lot, because he plays Pauly who is about to go out for a run, so he is wearing a school track and field team uniform, a red-brown short-sleeved T-shirt, embellished with A bright yellow pattern with bright yellow shorts, cuffs, and headband; then topped with stockings with tonal trim, and tan-black running shoes. It can be said that the whole set of Michael - Cera's styling has been changed, especially the bright yellow shorts became the biggest bright spot in an instant.

​​

Robert Faris is adjusting the camera according to today's weather conditions, while Evan Bell is talking to Ellen Page and Michael Serra, "I'm going to shoot this from three angles: panorama, close-up and close-up. The scene, let's start with Alan..."

​​

After changing the whole scene, although the filming has not yet started, Evan Bell has rediscovered the feeling, and the familiar feeling of smoothness has returned to his mind, which is really a good signal.

​​

"So, you two already know the content of this scene, so let's shoot it first, you show me your understanding, and then we will discuss the details of the performance slowly, how about?" Evan- Bell looked at the two young people with inquiring eyes. The two young people couldn't help nodding in approval. Evan Bell laughed, "That would be better. It seems that we can start the machine."
