When you get into work, time passes quickly.
For more than a week, residents of Kauai’s largest city, the city, have seen hundreds of "Jurassic Park" crew members go to the canyon area of the island every morning to shoot, just like going to work.
The news of the "Jurassic Park" has already appeared in the media. As a high-profile movie, people are wondering how Eric will "resurrect" the dinosaurs of ancient times.
Of course, there are people who are willing to work for this. In addition to the "Jurassic Park" crew, there are also paparazzi from all over the world on Kauai, and they all need to explore the secrets of the crew in order to prevent them. The film crew had to take very strict security measures, especially the dinosaur model. Once the photos of the models were leaked out before the film was released, it would be a big thing for the film. Disaster, after all, the selling point of Jurassic Park is a realistic dinosaur. If the audience sees the dinosaurs in the picture and suddenly thinks of the dinosaur model photos exposed in a magazine, the viewing experience will definitely drop. .
Therefore, even the crew of the crew can't see the dinosaur model all the time. Only when the relevant clips are taken will the props appear on the set, and once the shooting is completed, the model will be quickly escorted to the guard by the special person. Tight warehouse.
At the start of the main crew on Kauai, the two male and female protagonists of Allen Grant and Ellie Setler also photographed archaeological scenes in the Red Rock Canyon National Park in California. The playlist of John Hammond’s lawyer also filmed the amber mine scene in Dominica, where only two young actors and other supporting actors appeared in the crew. Jurassic Park is a multi-line narrative film, so this situation has not affected the operation of the crew. Eric can just take some minor shots to get the crew together.
A week later, when the starring actor appeared on Kauai, Eric had completed the scene of the accident when the film began to transport the Raptor and most of the obese software engineer Dennis.
In the dinosaur base built by the canyon, Eric looked at the bulls who were still frightened and screaming in the venue, as well as several staff members around the scene who were stunned and turned around and told the assistant director responsible for the props arrangement: "Royce, what's going on? Don't you say that there is no problem?"
Royce did not have any other staff to watch the lively mood, bitterly said: "Eric. This cow is usually very docile, although it is a bull, but it is smashed, a few lashes will not go wrong. I think, it... it might be high."
Royce said, pointing to the nearby crane. At this time, the shot was taken to the Raptors. A live cow was sent to the Raptor's 'Lone' by a crane. However, the originally docile cow was being After the crane was hoisted, it quickly violently struggled, and the force was so great that the mechanical arms of the crane were still shaking. This situation can't be used even if the lens is barely shot, and Eric has to immediately direct the driver to put the cow down. However, after landing, the stimulating bulls still did not calm down, madly dragging the wire ropes wrapped around them, and almost hurt people.
Between the two talking, the staff with an anesthetic gun appeared outside the venue. I was shown, shooting and stunned the hairy bull. Several other crew members stepped forward and dragged the cow out.
Eric screamed at the forehead. The animal actor really was a big trouble for any crew. Fortunately, the dinosaur props were not alive: "Royce, but I don't care what method you use, tomorrow, at the latest, give me a look. ...not afraid of high cattle."
Although this simple feeding lens may only appear in the movie for a few seconds, it has taken more than two hours from the start of preparation to the present, but in the end it is the result. Royce certainly sees Eric. Depressed, did not dare to bargain, nodded a promise, Eric has already taken the speaker from the assistant: "ok, this lens skips first, we directly shoot the next scene, Nickel, quickly set the plane, still There are other people who are moving!"
When I heard the director’s roar, the people who were still remembering the interesting things quickly woke up and went to their jobs. Eric also picked up the books and walked over to several stars.
"I am sorry, it seems that we have to shoot the next drama directly. You definitely have no problem here?" Eric went to Sam Neil and others to ask.
Sam Neil, Helen Hunt and others laughed and surrounded, and nodded and said no problem.
Eric did not participate in the activities of the actors between the actors. He only needed to see the final result. He saw everyone nod and went on to say, "The next step is a group play, and all five of you will appear in the camera. In order to cooperate with you, the corresponding dinosaur sound will be played. I hope that everyone can reflect the emotions of their characters."
Although some small accidents have been made because of a arrogant Terrorist cow, even if it is a good crew, there will be some minor accidents from time to time, so everyone is not surprised. After skipping the feeding lens, Nickel, who is the director of photography. Frank quickly arranged the next few shots.
"Photography, ok!"
"Light, ok!"
"Recording, ok!"
"..."
The response from the various groups of respondents sounded in the intercom, and Eric announced that the filming began.
This is a shot of five leading adult actors who saw the base feeding the Raptor. At this time, Dr. Grant and his team saw that the dinosaurs had not resurrected for a long time. However, the mood of the people was different.
As a dinosaur archaeologist, Dr. Grant is still in an excited state, from time to time to ask John Hammond and administrator Robert Malden a variety of questions, showing a strong desire for knowledge. Dr. Ellie Setler showed the woman's unique intolerance after seeing the dinosaur eating process. The excitement of seeing dinosaurs has disappeared a lot. The chaotic scientist Ian Malcolm has been showing some anxiety from the moment he saw the resurrection of the dinosaurs. He watched the anxiety of the Raptors more severely after eating. John Hammond has been in a state of self-sufficiency in observing the reaction of the people. Lawyer Donald is thinking about how to commercialize the Jurassic Park.
Although everyone's minds are different, it is not so easy to be perfect, but consider that the audience tends to focus on the person speaking. Eric, who is concerned about the monitor, has been focusing on the speaker, if the other party's performance during the speech is impeccable. And other people are above the standard, then this shot can pass.
Even so, a few minutes of conversation shots still used more than an hour remaining in the morning.
After lunch, the actors are in good shape. The crew immediately moved to another scene.
"Look at Royce. If you find the right cow tomorrow, arrange the shot of the morning shot. If you can't find it, follow the original schedule. Also, pay attention to the recent weather conditions. Preparing to arrange the scenes of the rainy day chase, I don't want to see the rain, I want to start shooting but there are all kinds of problems..."
After a day's work, Eric took a bottle of mineral water in his hand. As soon as he walked, he quickly explained the precautions to the director's assistant director.
The two walked all the way to a jeep, the driver opened the door for Eric, and Eric’s water in his hand was finished. The empty bottle was stuffed into the trash can on the side of the road before it got into the jeep.
In the back seat, Allen, who is sitting on the other side, has spread out the folders on his knees.
At the time of the film, Eric was a director, but, many times. Upon completion, Eric had to switch to another identity.
The jeep is driving smoothly on the road. Allen did not say anything nonsense and started his own work directly.
"The budget for the new season of Friends, X-Files and Who will become a millionaire has already been made, and there are budgets for the fireflies and Disney movies in the second half of the year. These documents need to be read as soon as possible. And sign it."
Eric nodded.
"The opening of Disneyland Paris is scheduled for September 10th. I hope that you can attend the opening ceremony in person and have already sent an invitation."
"September 10, what is this date?" Eric wondered.
Allen explained: "Disney also raised objections. The summer vacation on September 10 just passed. However, this is the arrangement of the French partner. The whole of Europe is against the opening of Disneyland Paris. They choose this date and definitely It is also because of the corresponding pressure."
Eric's index finger is slightly stroked on the thigh. The filming of Jurassic Park is only ten weeks. If everything goes well, maybe he will be able to go to Paris on September 10.
"Look at the situation. If I can attend, I will rush over, otherwise I will."
Allen quickly recorded a few words on the memo, and then continued: "There is one more thing, about "Disguised Geek", Fox is responsible for the overseas release of "Disguised Geek", currently the film is only in Europe seven. The country has not yet covered the five major ballot countries of Britain, France, Germany and Italy. However, its total box office has accumulated more than 40 million US dollars. The marketing department has handed over a report, expecting the film's overseas box office. It may break through 200 million US dollars, almost twice the size of the mainland."
Allen said that looking at Eric and not going on, these can clearly convey the meaning of management.
Eric shook his head and smiled. "Fireflies are responsible for domestic distribution. Fox is responsible for overseas. When I set up tg, I agreed with Liz, so that they should not play this idea. Moreover, "Disguise Geek" is just a Unexpectedly, most of this style of local comedy will not achieve any good results overseas."
Allen opened his mouth, but did not say anything, quickly remembered, and then said: "And, Mr. Martin Davis will come on the fifteenth."
"Isn't that day a day?"
"I told the other person about it, but Mr. Davis insisted."
"Then follow him," Eric didn't care.
Allen turned the file in his hand and said, "There is one more thing. About the speed of life and death. A week ago, there was an accident during the filming of "The Speed of Life and Death". However, it did not appear too serious. As a result, only three people were traumatized to varying degrees, and the most serious ones only needed to be raised for one month. This event would have passed after the crew clarified, but three days ago, a name called "Hollywood Hollywood." The entertainment newspaper published a follow-up report on this matter, pointing the finger at you."
"I?" Eric gave up his body slightly.
Allen pulled a newspaper from the folder and handed it to Eric: "Look."
Eric took over and quickly scanned the article that had been marked by Allen with a red pen. This report evokes the accident of the "Life and Death" crew and points the finger at Eric, who provides the story. It is said that Eric has set this story too thrilling, which led to accidents during the filming process. In the end, this report even called on the Los Angeles government and industry associations to pay attention to this matter, and hoped that the "Life and Death" crew could pause the filming and accept the corresponding security investigation.
"How is the result?" Eric read the report, Shen Sheng asked, this report is already three days ago, since it was handed over to himself, there must be follow-up.
"After this report, there are several other newspapers that have also reprinted this article. However, realizing that this is unusual, the public relations department has quickly followed up and has now calmed down."
Eric gently licked the forehead, without thinking, he also knows that this is someone who can't stand loneliness and wants to do some small moves. It seems that the success of "Tornado" is really great for those people. After all, If you just want to hype a piece of news, you will not turn your finger at him.
"Is there more information?" Although Alan didn't say it, Eric knew the results, but he tried to ask.
Allen shook his head: "No, however, "Hollyday Hollywood" is a newspaper owned by Newhouse Media."
Eric recalled the information about Newhouse and quickly said: "You sent a letter to the head of Newhouse Media in my name. My request is not too much, let the editor of "Daily Hollywood" And the reporter who wrote the report is getting out of the way. I don’t care what the people behind me are instructing. Since they have taken advantage of being willing to make cannon fodder, they must have the awareness of cannon fodder.
