Remember 【??】in one second, to provide you with wonderful novel reading.
"Duke Rosenberg is a compelling and popular director and producer. What is his production company like?"
Sitting in the reception lounge of the Duke's studio, Gao Fangfang couldn't help but think of this question. She just passed the jet lag and couldn't wait to contact Warner Bros., and then had this visit and interview.
Although he is from the national TV station on the other side, Gao Fangfang is a smart man. He knows that this is the United States, and his identity and the TV station behind him are not good enough.
After all, she was going to visit the Duke’s studio and interviewed Duke Rosenberg, the world’s top director.
This famous Hollywood director has the qualifications and capital to make any media and reporters, even if Gao Fangfang knows very well, Warner Greater China promotes this interview more to use the power of his TV station to promote and promote "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" has entered post-production.
The door of the lounge was knocked suddenly, and then a tall, brown-haired woman pushed the door and walked in, smiling and proactively extending her hand to her, "Hello, Miss Gao, I am Duke’s assistant. Tina Fei."
Although the other party claimed to be just an assistant, Gao Fangfang stood up for the first time and shook her hand outstretched, "Hello, Tina, can I call you that?"
Gao Fangfang once studied in Los Angeles, otherwise he would not be able to get this interview assignment, and he also knows about Hollywood. He also did enough homework before coming. If you really treat this tall and beautiful woman as an assistant , Then there must be something wrong with her head.
She knows the position of this woman named Tina Fei in Duke Rosenberg's entire group. It can be said that Duke Rosenberg's great achievements have directly made his assistant the top power figure in Hollywood.
Tina Fei slightly opened the distance between the two sides, "Next I will take Miss Gao to visit the Duke's studio."
Although the Duke's studio was acquired by Time Warner a long time ago, all traces of Duke are still preserved, and many important measures are often handed over to Duke for decision-making.
"Thank you."
Gao Fangfang said politely, and followed Tina Fei, together with his cameraman. Out of this lounge.
She knew very well, how could a director of Duke Rosenberg's level be a guide for a reporter? Being able to send Tina Fei over has shown sincerity and importance.
And Gao Fangfang also knows. Now that "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" is less than half a year away from the North American and global release dates, director Duke Rosenberg will inevitably seize every minute of his busy film post work.
Movies like "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" must be filled with a lot of special effects shots, and there will be a lot of detailed work to do on the narrative level.
When passing by an open office. Gao Fangfang saw Duke Rosenberg, the director was discussing work with several people, and he seemed quite busy.
Gao Fangfang looked at it a few more times. She didn't feel any nervousness from Duke Rosenberg. He and his current partner Charles Rowan were explaining to some people.
"Duke Rosenberg is a compelling and popular director and producer. What is the production company he founded?"
As the visit and the cameraman filming proceeded, Gao Fangfang had a general impression.
Many similar Hollywood studios are located in single-family villas or office buildings near the studios, but "Duke's Studio" is not. It is located in an indescribable, lonely building near Burbank. A few blocks away is the Warner Building.
Perhaps this was done to facilitate contact with Warner Bros. Duke Rosenberg, when he was young, liked to make jokes and pranks-the exterior wall of this building was written "National Typewriter Company", a fictional company A company that doesn't exist at all.
Walking inside this film company, Gao Fangfang can see Duke Rosenberg’s stuff everywhere. The walls of the long corridor are filled with various posters, including one An old American football game leaflet with a photo of Duke Rosenberg printed on it.
"This is a game in Duke high school."
Tina Fei, who accompanied her, commented in a timely manner, "In this game, Duke sent the first 60-yard touchdown in Mountain Middle School history. This is also the most memorable thing Duke High School remembers. one."
Gao Fangfang knew that Duke Rosenberg had an American football team and couldn't help asking, "Is he very proficient in American football?"
Hearing this, Tina Fei couldn't help shrugging. "In the amateur level, the level is pretty good, compared with professional players..."
She couldn't help shook her head.
Seeing Tina Fei shaking her head, Gao Fangfang also understood, and stopped asking questions, and continued to watch the poster on the corridor.
In the corridor leading to the conference room are hung a poster of
Speed ​​of Life
signed by Keanu Reeves, a poster of
Breaking Death Island
signed by Nicholas Cage, and
Saving Private Rui
signed by Tom Hanks. "Well" poster, "Chicago" poster signed by Naomi Watts, "The Matrix" poster signed by Charlize Theron, "One Hundred Thousand Fire" poster signed by Gerald Butler, and Vigo Mortensen's signature The poster for the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy...
It is simply a collection of Duke Rosenberg's works.
Across the long corridor, Gao Fangfang followed Tina Fei into the newly renovated auditorium. Here is dedicated to reviewing the scripts delivered. In the middle of the review hall is an enlarged giant poster. It is a famous Marvel movie character Natasha Normano painted by a child on the workbook. Husband, next to her, she wrote in immature handwriting: "I love Natasha, she is beautiful and smart."
Tina Fei said again, "The author of this painting is Duke's goddaughter Suri Cruise."
Gao Fangfang nodded. The little girl named Suri Cruise was obviously the daughter of Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman.
"I want to ask a question."
Obviously, Gao Fangfang is not very interested in this painting. Instead, his eyes are fixed on the employees who read the script in the review hall, "How should a typical Hollywood company like Duke Studio review the script? Or, say, some When a project arrives at a film and television company, what should its review process be more appropriate and efficient so that you won’t miss a good script?"
This is an extremely cumbersome question to answer. Tina Fei couldn't explain it in too much detail. After thinking about it, she gave some very general answers.
"The strict control of the editing department must be based on the motivation to reduce the company's investment risk," Tina Fei said simply, "They tried their best to evaluate and review the script from the perspective and mentality of the audience, including the subject matter. The selection, the pros and cons of the lines, the quality of the picture, and the novelty of the story are all considered. The editing department must be more professional, more attentive and more responsible than the employees of other departments of the company."
Tina Fei answered here. As a veteran in this industry, she knows very well that even if she does what she just said and implements such a rigorous method and system, can she really select excellent scripts and projects? It's still very difficult.
Although the people who call for the script for this link, although they want to leave a better and developable story, in fact, the result after the primary election is basically dead.
Most projects in Hollywood have rarely evolved from scripts that were actually collected. The possibility of such a delivery script becoming a movie is very low. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a big wave.
Later, Tina Fei took Gao Fangfang into the exhibition hall of the Duke's studio. The shelves in the hall were filled with memorabilia and models related to Duke's previous movies and TV works.
No matter where Gao Fangfang’s gaze falls, one or two interesting trinkets can be seen, and other surprises constantly popped up during the visit. For example, she discovered that a beeswax hair removal machine actually had a slap printed on it. The large and small "Neo" logo, and the note beside it also says that it was used by Keanu Reeves when he appeared in "Dark Empire".
The scale of the Duke’s studio is not very large. Gao Fangfang simply put it away. There are about a hundred people. But what makes her most curious is that the company employs a group of full-time handicraftsmen. Their job is not only interesting with machine printing. The theme T-shirts can also be used to make various props by 3D printing or handmade.
Tina Fei told her that this can help them get what they want quickly in the creative stage, and use this to determine whether the idea is feasible.
To further explain his point of view, Tina Fei went to the cabinet and took out two rope guns used in "Batman". One was printed out in the company, and the cost was only 3 US dollars. After making various adjustments to the model, the second one was finally made out of resin and metal, which is the prop that was actually used in the film, and it cost about $800.
Gao Fangfang found that there are many editing rooms and a 60-seat small theater with the most advanced technology.
"Although it is used less frequently here."
Looking at the empty theater, Tina Fei couldn’t help but think of the busy time, and said,
Duke attaches great importance to constantly correcting problems during the production process. This reflects his passion for filmmaking since childhood. All available resources to achieve results."
Following Tina Fei around the entire Duke’s studio, Gao Fangfang and the photographer returned to the original reception lounge, and an assistant brought coffee and black tea in due course.
After the assistant left, Tina Fei looked at her watch and said, "Wait a minute, Duke's work should be almost finished. I'll check it out.
Gao Fangfang immediately gathered all his energy to prepare for this interview.
(To be continued.)
