Legendary Hollywood Director

By the time Lehmann took a flight back to Los Angeles, the French cinema market was still hot.

The main reason is that the theme of "Untouchable" is very coincidental, and it just hits the soft hearts of most audiences.

In this regard, it can only be said that the local culture has a great bonus.

Rest overnight.

When Lehman went to the company, he first called Liam and asked him to pay attention to keeping in touch with the three film companies of EMI, Gaumont and Europa.

In fact, there is not much to talk about, overseas distribution is still very weak for Blue Butterfly Pictures, and it is enough to check more.

Sitting in the boss chair, Joseph greeted him and began to report on his recent work.

In addition to daily operations, management and some small personnel adjustments, Joseph also knew that Lehman's focus must be on the preparation of the company's most important project "The Dark Knight" next year.

Now, the actor has been in place, and Nolan communicates with the main creator while setting the scene and setting, and perfects the next shooting arrangement.

Lehman pondered, and felt that the speed was okay.

When Nolan makes a movie, the most time-consuming part is always the preparatory work. Instead, the filming actually takes place without delay.

According to his memory, the original time and space film took more than half a year to polish the script. After the filming, he waited for several months to wait for the schedule. Now, with Lehman's suggestion, a lot of things can be saved.

At least, it took only a month and a half to complete the first version of the script.

In this way, it seems that we can really catch up with the summer vacation next year - if it is too late, Christmas is not bad.

It will never be delayed until 2008...

After all, according to reason, it is best not to delay the release time of the sequel. The best shooting mode for the sequel should be the "Harry Potter" or "007" series. Now, another one is launched, and it will definitely maintain a certain degree of topic during the period. For Xuanfa, I don't know how convenient it is.

It's a pity that some directors have more ideas about filming, or the overall plan is vague.

Of course, that's actually Warner's fault.

If Firefly didn't take over, they would argue with Legendary Pictures, with the main creator, and even delay filming...  

Right now, "Untouchable" is being released smoothly, and while it has won word of mouth and earned a reputation, it will also bring in a lot of money. "She" is in post-production. After visiting the class a few times, Sophia has his dad's help, so I don't worry about it. , and they have already made up their minds to build momentum from the European Film Festival first, and then go back to the Oscars to expand their influence. In this regard, Lehmann mentioned a few words, and the Coppola family has spare capacity and does not need to worry too much.

And "Night at the Museum" has been in the late stage for a long time. It is estimated that it will land in theaters at the end of December, just in time for the "300" class, and continue to acquire the North American box office market. In addition, there is also the screening of "The Edge of Society"... ...And then, the operation of "Pan's Labyrinth" is almost at the end. When the Oscars pass in February next year, it will be the best. If it doesn't, it will actually recover the cost. .... No way, after all, the plot is a bit depressing, and it is normal for the audience not to like the tone of the tragedy.

After all, it doesn't matter if you cry because you are moved or felt by a certain plot, but cry because of suffering and the sorrow of the world. Many viewers don't have that battered heart...

Even if the film is praised by many film critics, it has won the recognition of the quality of word-of-mouth.

Thinking about it this way, there will be more things to do next year-

Lighting entertainment has just begun to develop, and it is necessary to invest money in it to cultivate a mature animation production team...

After "New York City" and "The Walking Dead" continue to cultivate the identity of the zombie theme, the second "I am a hero" and "I am a legend" also need to be filmed in a planned way, at least next year, the second part must be pushed into the hospital Online, those fan groups are urging every day on the forum, they can't ignore it, oh, no, shoot according to the mood...

In addition, Lehman is also a little itchy, and he wants to shoot again...

Lyman waved his hand, and when Joseph left, he braced himself to deal with some of the company affairs he had accumulated.

Alas, time is running out.

Been busy until the afternoon, except for a break for lunch in the middle...

Lyman got up and moved his body, still thinking in his mind-next year, when the fireflies will really take off.

He had been waiting for such an opportunity for a long time.

......

Nolan is now measuring the route step by step.

This scene will be shot with an IMAX camera, no sloppiness.

Of course, there is another reason that the cost of the scene is too high. If you mess up, it will not only mean that you need to re-set the scene, set the scene, and delay the shooting. The more than 1 million invested in the early stage is completely lost.

If there were passers-by at the scene, he would definitely be shocked by such a big scene.

Because according to the shooting requirements, the abandoned hospital in front of me, the hospital that was bought by the crew now, will be blasted, and it will be more waste than waste.

In order to report related matters, the person in charge of the firefighters fund insurance even went to the scene to supervise and evaluate the feasibility of shooting.

In case of an accident, it is them who are unlucky.

According to the insurance agreement, no matter who has an accident in this explosion scene, it means trouble, and losing some money is a trivial matter.

What's worse, Nolan also asked the actors not to use doubles for the frontal shots... Heath Ledger even nodded and agreed.

Trouble.

It's troublesome to meet such a director who likes real-life shooting.

Obviously they have consulted with professionals in the industry, similar explosion effects can be simulated with special effects, maybe the scene is even more macro...

Unfortunately, Nolan is a person who insists on the concept of real shooting.

Not to mention that the shots made by special effects are a little less "exquisite". For example, the air wave effect of blasting is still more impactful if you really face the pictures taken in by the explosion, and even if he can do it, he doesn't want to. .

Even if it's cheaper and easier...

It's just the style of each director, and Nolan doesn't use special effects at all, but why do scenes that can be shot actually rely on external forces?

Of course, he's not a big-handed director who doesn't care about filming.

Therefore, at this moment, he led the shooting team to start simulating the situations that may occur during the shooting, minimizing the danger and maximizing the feasibility.

The preset explosion point is repeatedly deduced with professional blasters.

Then there is a standard for the actor's entry time and exit time. There is a lot of rehearsal, and it is exactly the same. Basically, there will be no accidents.

Because the explosives used for filming seem to be very powerful, but they are actually within the controllable range.

According to the expected design.

This scene is the turning point of Harvey's transformation - a bright person will also be swallowed by hatred, and the "instinct" of human beings drives him to the road of revenge. In other words, in Nolan's conception, no matter how great people are, they will inevitably be controlled by selfish desires, but this is also human beings, an imperfect existence.

Therefore, instead of talking about Batman and focusing on reshaping this character, the sequel should talk about the counterattack of the heroes who are wrapped up in the times in such a decaying city.

It is also because this scene is important that more measurements and calculations are needed.

Nolan stood in the open space in front of the hospital with a wide-brimmed hat on his head, looking inconspicuous.

But the eyes of the people around him involuntarily converged on him, waiting for him to issue orders.

"It takes one and a half minutes to walk to this white line from the exit of the hall, and the set explosion time is two and a half minutes... It should be enough."

Nolan thought in his heart ~www.readwn.com~ but looked around carefully, constantly calculating the possibility of each step.

This area is already very familiar to him, and he has walked a dozen times just walking back and forth.

But tending to be cautious, Nolan still beckoned to let the blasting team take a dummy model and use the orbital method to simulate the effect to see the effect.

Although it is not really detonated, it is completely feasible to experiment with specific procedures on the computer with specific parameters.

However, there were some small difficulties in the middle.

For example, because the set detonation time is always slower than the travel time, how to "calmly" go beyond the white line, and then just explode such an operation still has some tests on the synchronization rate.

The key problem is that when the actors are really in battle, they are likely to panic when they are in a hurry. Many of the white lines still don't explode, and they look a little silly, or they can't highlight the calculation ability and boldness of the clown.

Of course, there is still time, you can rehearse more and reduce mistakes...
