Shooting started again, and there was a faint explosion sound.
Ronan asked, "Robert, is there a company that provides professional audiences in Los Angeles?"
Robert was puzzled: "Professional audience?"
"It's probably used for live-streaming variety shows or song and dance programs. It needs an audience with a strong sense of lens and good at expressing emotions." Ronan said roughly from memory: "This kind of audience should cry when they should cry, and laugh when they should laugh. It can increase the appeal of the program."
"Can you do this?" Mary was a little surprised.
Robert thought about it for a while, and finally shook his head: "There should be no professional company doing similar business."
Ronan nodded slightly. This kind of audience is coming up with talent variety shows, and it is estimated that it will take a few years to appear.
"Do you want to do this kind of business?" Mary reminded: "Movie professionals can't touch agency business."
Ronan smiled and said, "I know." The laws and regulations are perfect here. It's one thing to wipe the sideball, and another thing to violate it blatantly. He said to Robert again: "When the film enters post-production, you should find some new faces, preferably fans with a little acting experience. The number of fans does not need to be large, a dozen are enough. Find separately, each group has more than two. I will give you a plan and ask someone to train them for a few days. I will use it later."
"This is easy to find." In Robert's eyes, it is not difficult: "Many community theaters have similar amateur performers."
Ronan nodded: "Be smart, have a strict mouth, and lack money."
Robert said, "I understand."
Now that the shooting has entered the middle and late stages, and the film has no particularly complicated processing links, Ronan also urged James Wong, if it can be achieved during shooting, don't push it to post-production.
It is necessary to prepare for the release of the film.
In this movie, everything has to be entered into the theater, and then strive to obtain more benefits on this basis.
Otherwise, it will be difficult to explain to the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority.
It’s better to avoid some troubles. The Arab really has money in his hands, and he is short of money.
Compared to others, film distribution is quite an uncertain part, because the distribution company may not be able to see this film.
To be honest, for such a small production, the initiative of distribution is not in my own hands.
Even, it is very rare to have a large-scale distribution company to release this film.
Shahai Entertainment has no distribution capabilities, and the establishment of distribution channels cannot be achieved immediately, which requires time and capital investment.
If you want to be Dashahai Entertainment, independent distribution is a necessary condition, and at least it must have independent distribution capabilities in North America.
But this is the future, not the present.
Ronan’s most ideal plan is to find a suitable distributor after the film has been filmed and produced, and at least the distribution intention can be achieved.
If it doesn't go well, I can only take the film to the independent film festival.
In that case, I am afraid that the distribution rights will be sold out.
In this era, most of the issuance is actually controlled by the six major companies and their subsidiaries.
Some medium-sized issuing companies appear to be independent, but in fact they are all subsidiaries of the Big Six.
It is not easy to talk to the Big Six. The two parties are not at the same level at all. If the difference is too great, the issue conditions will be a problem.
Unfortunately, the Internet and computer industries are still not well developed and popular.
The emergence of new media can effectively impact the monopoly of inherent forces.
Robert discussed the new plan with Ronan, and left the nanny car first.
Luo Nan turned off the air conditioner and asked Mary: "How did you ask about what I told you last time?"
"What's the matter?" Mary was stunned.
Ronan reminded: "San Fernando Valley."
Mary suddenly realized, and said: "I didn't find it. No one of my friends knew anyone in that industry." She shrugged, "I can't figure it out, you should think of another way."
"Okay." Ronan knew that such a thing could not be forced.
Marila opened the door: "I'm leaving."
Ronan waved his hand. After Mary got out of the car, she also got out of the nanny car. The crew was still shooting gunfights, and the ping-pong-pong playing was quite lively.
He stood by the car and looked around. They were all typical American-style independent houses, or small villas. Before the crew of the "Human Removal Project" came over, there were often crews coming to shoot, but they were all authentic romance films. Professional crew.
Approaching noon, the crew temporarily suspended work for dinner and rest, and the O’Neill neighborhood finally calmed down.
While eating, James Wong and Ronan joined the table.
"As the shooting progresses, I think there should be more presentations about Killing Day." James Huang is a responsible director, and said seriously: "If there is no display of Killing Day, or a flash in the film, so A crazy moment of universality, lacking enough convincing power."
Ronan took a sip of water and asked, "What's your opinion?"
This is a normal work exchange between producer and director, not so much nonsense.
Interrogative sentence used by James Huang: "Add more action killing scenes?"
Ronan did not answer immediately. This is a normal way of processing, but the action scenes are extremely expensive, which will impact the limited budget and increase the length of the film.
This type of film, except for the prologue, should not exceed 90 minutes in content.
James Huang opened his mouth and swallowed the words that came to his lips. What is the general situation of this crew? As a director, I can perceive that increasing the number of plays means increasing investment. It seems that the budget of the crew is not very high...
Of course, the director can clamor for additional investment, but he and Shahai Entertainment not only cooperated this time, but also the more important "Death is Coming" later, the relationship was too rigid and it was no good.
Ronan frowned and thought for a while, then recalled the movies he had watched before, and slowly said, "Can you watch this way? The protagonist has a TV in his family, and there is surveillance outside the house. We broadcast on the TV screen the whole nation on Killing Day. Situation, and then use the monitoring screen to play the chaos in the neighborhood..."
Hearing this, James Huang pushed his glasses up hard: "Yeah! Why didn't I expect it? This is a good idea."
He didn't say something, but he knew very well in his heart that this seemingly young producer had come up with a good way to save money and express his national background.
The clarity of the TV broadcast does not need to be too clear, just shoot a similar long-range shot, and it doesn't cost much.
and put it in the film in the form of TV news broadcast, more convincing.
No wonder the Arab oil tyrants are able to pay for investment.
"Also, James, I might have overlooked a problem before." Ronan added, "Appropriately aggravate the role of the black man rescued by the protagonist's family."
James-Huang Buben, immediately understood: "For business?"
Ronan nodded slightly: "Yes."
After lunch, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com Ronan watched for a while and was about to return to Los Angeles. Before getting in the car, the phone rang and took a look at the number from abroad.
abroad? Is it Carmen Case?
Both of them are busy at work, and they are not close in touch. They just send a few text messages a week and rarely make calls.
Ronan connected the phone, but a strange woman's voice rang.
"Is that you, Ronan?" The owner of the voice seems to be quite old: "I am Helen."
Ronan first said: "I am Ronan." Then he thought of who the other party was, and said with a smile: "Hello, Aunt Helen."
"I heard that you have had a lot of trouble in Los Angeles recently? Would you like to come to Germany to help me? I am going to open a meat shop in Berlin..."
Ronan said: "I have solved the trouble." He selectively said about the current situation: "If I can't get along in Los Angeles, I will definitely go to Germany to seek refuge with you."
The two chatted again with the old Andersons who would die, and then they hung up.
Ronan saved this phone specially, Germany...
This Aunt Helen is a relative of the old Mrs. Anderson. In the words of the other side of the Pacific Ocean, she has not produced five clothes yet, but her nationality is German.
A similar situation is very common in the country of immigrants, the United States.
The German plan that fudged Saleh before, the so-called Anderson family relationship in Germany, actually refers to this Helen Koch.
However, she has nothing to do with the film industry and is in the meat business.
To put it plainly, he is a butcher shop owner.
Ronan returned to Los Angeles. It took a few days to design a plan, and then hand it over to Robert so that Robert can hire people and have enough time to prepare.
