The last shot of the afternoon was a literary scene between Matthew and Duff Villa, NG had a few more times, and it was not too early when the shooting was completed, and when he finished removing his makeup, he came to the office of the press officer of the crew and found that everyone was waiting for him.

In the office, not only the press officer and Helen Herman, but also the producer Sean Daniel, who is in charge of the crew, is not surprised to see him Matthew, and some surprises are that Kelly Hu and her agent are also waiting in the office.

Matthew greeted them one by one and sat down on the single couch next to Helen Herman.

"Now it's all there. The press officer glanced at Sean Daniel, "Let's get started." ”

Sean Daniel didn't speak, just nodded.

The press officer continued, "Everyone, I came to you today because the crew has a publicity plan. He looked at Matthew first, and then at Kelly Hu, "I need to ask for your opinions." ”

Hearing him say this, Matthew couldn't help but be a little curious, the crew made a publicity plan, and the actors cooperated, he and Kelly Hu are not big-name stars, when do you need to ask for their opinions?

He glanced at Hu Kaili, and Hu Kaili and her agent were also a little puzzled.

The press officer quickly explained, "If we can, we would like to ask Matthew and Kelly to break out in their relationship during the pre-screening publicity phase." Of course, the two only need to play a couple in front of the public and the media to create news points for the film......"

Matthew immediately understood that it was about getting them to pretend to be a couple and then attract attention.

He is not averse to this strategy, and the movie promotion is full of tricks and many things are fake, such as the last press conference, which was full of lies with Sean Daniel, Stephen Sommers and Chuck Russell.

But not being disgusted doesn't mean he will agree.

"Can I say a word?"

Taking advantage of the press officer's pause, Matthew interjected, "Guys, can you listen to me?"

Helen Herman turned her eyes to look at Matthew, she didn't mean to stop it, she knew what Matthew was going to say, this kind of thing was based on voluntariness, and if the actors didn't agree, the crew wouldn't be reluctant.

The press officer looked at Matthew, "Please." ”

Matthew didn't go around the bush and said directly, "I'm sorry, I can't do this, I have a girlfriend, and I don't want her to have any misunderstanding." ”

The way Britney thinks about problems, sometimes he can't figure it out, it's better not to try this kind of thing.

"Do you have a girlfriend?" the press officer was a little surprised.

It's not the first time he's worked with Matthew, he was on the set as a press officer in "The Mummy Returns" and never heard of Matthew having a girlfriend.

"Well, it's true. Matthew glanced at Helen Herman next to him, "We've been together for more than a year, and Helen knows it." ”

Seeing that Matthew didn't want to mention Britney's name, Helen Herman said lightly, "That's true. ”

The press officer spread his hands and said no more, he thought that both parties were single, so he had such an idea, and now one party does not agree, and it is useless to continue.

Kelly Hu quickly said goodbye and left, and Matthew had a few more conversations with Sean Daniel.

Helen Herman is communicating with the press officer, which is an important position in the crew, and if the two sides work together, it will also be conducive to Matthew's personal promotion.

Later, the press officer took Matthew and Helen Herman to a large office next door to pick up footage from yesterday's shoot so that Matthew could upload it to his personal blog, and it would be better if he could use the angel agency's promotional channels.

When he took the USB flash drive, Matthew saw the poster template that the crew was designing for early publicity, it was not that he intended to see it, this was not a confidential project, probably to observe the effect, the poster was hung on the wall opposite the door of the office, which was quite conspicuous.

This is clearly a poster for the film, not a personal poster for the characters, and although the poster has not yet been added with text such as the title and the names of the actors, the images of the main actors have been composited.

Matthew took a special look to see him as the male lead in the center of the poster, next to him was Kelly Hu, and then other actors like Clark Bernard, Duff Villa, and Steven Brand were on either side.

"There's something wrong with this poster. Helen Herman frowned slightly.

Needless to say, Matthew also discovered that he, the absolute protagonist, is not prominent despite being in the center of the poster.

But neither of them spoke, this is not the right place, not to mention that the poster has not yet been finalized, Matthew himself is still present, and once there is a dispute, it will not be good for his relationship with the crew.

The two didn't stay long and soon left.

It was not early, and Matthew and Helen Herman quickly left the office area of the set and found a four-wheeled battery car, which Matthew drove towards the door of the studio.

"If the final version of the poster is still like this......" Matthew said directly to Helen Herman, "I want you to negotiate with the crew." ”

Helen Herman didn't shirk anything, "I know. ”

Matthew added, "I still have some ideas about the other actors. ”

"Say it. Helen Herman knows exactly what kind of person Matthew is and is mentally prepared for this, "Don't go too far. ”

"Definitely not too much. Matthew turned around, and the battery car entered the avenue leading directly to the entrance of the studio, "If nothing else, even if it's for your sake, I won't bother with them." ”

For the sake of the impact of the movie on him, the male protagonist, he can't be nonsense, the film failed, the supporting actors are still supporting roles, and he, the male protagonist, is about to be finished.

A minute later, the battery car stopped in front of the studio, and Helen Herman was the first to get out of the car.

She stood next to the car and said to Matthew, "Yes." If the poster made by the crew is still like today, I will negotiate with them. ”

On Matthew's actor contract, there is an article that involves items such as posters and stills of the male lead, and he has the right to suggest.

"That's good. Matthew jumped out of the battery car and waved at Helen Herman, "Goodbye, Helen." Get a good night's sleep. ”

Helen Herman waved at him and walked out of the studio.

Unlike Matthew, who was harassed by reporters, she needed to park her car outside.

Matthew drove home and uploaded the photos he got today to his blog, which are some of the photos that the crew wouldn't use, and now his blog has a four-figure following, and even newspapers have reprinted the pictures and blog posts on it.

However, like the stills of the crew and photos on the set, he can't post them casually, and he must get the approval of the press officer before uploading them.

In the days that followed, Matthew continued to devote himself to the filming, as before, and it was enough for Helen Herman to negotiate if there was a problem.

As the scenes in the studio came to an end and Warner Studios' Spartacus exhibit needed to coordinate time, the crew left Los Angeles and moved into the Nevada desert to begin filming on location.

In the first scene in Nevada, Matthew was about to be buried alive by the crew.

The crew dug two large pits in the sand and buried the custom-made boxes inside, and Matthew and another actor, Duff Villa, stood in the middle of the boxes, and then covered them with lids, revealing only their heads, and spread sand on the covers, creating the illusion of being buried alive.

This is the easiest way, but the actors have to endure a certain amount of stuffiness, and there is a more relaxed way to shoot directly on a green screen, but that will cost more and the crew will obviously have to save money.

There will be no danger anyway, and with various safeguards, Matthew still completes his role according to the crew's plan.

Filming soon began.

The sun shone brightly on his head, Matthew's face quickly sweated, the sun on the desert was a little dazzling, he looked down in front of him, and on the opposite side was a skull, very realistic, and there was something like carrion on it.

"Awesome!"

A voice came from the side, and Matthew turned his head to see that Duff Villa, like him, had only one head on the ground, and said with a smile, "They smoke the fire ants out of their nests to feast on our heads." ”

Matthew's face was nervous, and he looked at Duff Villa, and then at the fire ant nests that had been piled up tall, and began to struggle.

"Do you think it's funny?" he asked the guy who was laughing next to him.

Duff Villa looked relaxed, "There's a little bit. Because I can escape, and you, I can only wait for ...... death."

The filming went well, and in the morning, the crew finished filming all the scenes where Matthew and Duff Villa escaped alive, and as for the non-existent fire ants, they had to rely on special effects in post-production.

After lunch, Matthew, led by a trainer, came to a white dromedary, with a lot of scenes between him and the camel, and he needed to get acquainted with this specially trained camel as soon as possible.

This camel is also an animal actor hired by the crew, and his salary is even higher than that of Duff Villa.

Matthew knows a little bit that in Hollywood shooting, some animal actors are paid a lot of money, especially actors such as cats and dogs, among which the top existence is definitely comparable to that of a starlet.

Frankly speaking, he doesn't like pets very much, it's okay to treat animals as ornaments, and he doesn't like close contact, which also has something to do with his previous life, when he had to work hard for the most basic survival, and where he had the leisure to care about the life and death of other actions.

Fortunately, this camel was well-trained and docile, and did not resist letting him ride on it.

This also reduces a lot of trouble, and Matthew can also practice riding a camel smoothly, not in a hurry, and without using a stand-in.

Matthew's filming in Nevada was basically smooth, but Helen Herman, who stayed in Los Angeles, found the crew and was ready to negotiate with the crew about the pre-promotional poster. For mobile phone users, please browse M. Reading for a better reading experience.
