Chapter 117: Confidence
Based on a classic movie, it is not difficult to make a proper adaptation.
There is almost no threshold, and any person can adapt a story according to his own imagination.
But if you want to adapt a story that surpasses the classics of the past, it is by no means something that anyone can do!
To do this, in addition to the necessary expertise, it takes a lot of luck to be able to accomplish this seemingly impossible thing.
Although Tang Feng is not a professional screenwriter and does not have superb skills, he just has such luck.
In fact, Tang Feng never thought of surpassing, and he never thought that he had that ability, and all the problems of domineering side leakage could be solved.
Perhaps it is precisely because of his courage to explore that he gave the most important soul to this film in his inadvertent changes and attempts!
For a movie, the box office is not equal to all, and as for those so-called awards, they are just artificial hype.
And what really determines its level is whether it has a soul or not!
Why did George Lucas's "Star Wars" series become popular all over the world, and why did it influence generations and be regarded as a classic in science fiction movies?
Just because it has its own soul, it satisfies everyone's fairy-tale fantasies and longings for the vast universe with a world that is completely imaginary.
The most famous "Gone with the Wind", "Ghost Love" released at the beginning of the year, and "Titanic" in the previous life, why can it become a classic that is both popular and rave reviews?
Take these three love classics as an example, the reason why they can be regarded as the most classic love movies is because they all have souls.
Whether it is the tragedy of human nature, or the life and death that can never be surmounted, or the great sacrifice in the face of danger, it resonates with everyone!
That's right!
The so-called soul of a movie is something that can resonate with the audience!
It can be a beautiful and tragic love, an indictment of a social phenomenon, or an otherworldly imagination......
In the development process of movies, there are many such classic cases, which can be said to be numerous.
Originally, Tang Feng wanted to follow the template of his previous life and make this popular entertainment movie step by step.
Because of this, he will be under tremendous pressure after seeing through Warner's conspiracy!
It can be said that whether it is compared with "Home Alone" or "Edward Scissorhands", his "Little Sunshine Beauty" does not have an absolute advantage.
One relies on selling cute treasures, and the other is creative to win.
Although it has not been done to the extreme, it is also a good film, which makes "Little Sunshine Beauty", which is not too outstanding in any aspect, a little embarrassing.
Even if you fight against them alone, you won't necessarily have any chance of winning, let alone appearing on the same stage.
Even, to a certain extent, "Little Sunshine Beauty" may not be able to spell "Kindergarten Detective", it is a movie starring the popular Schwarzenegger!
And under Warner's insidious encirclement, even if he can successfully complete his own movie, even if he can shoot at a high level, he may not be able to successfully break through.
That's why he shows that he doesn't care about himself, no matter what happens outside, he wants to make his own movie.
It is not only a stubbornness that does not admit defeat, but also full of helpless pathos......
As the saying goes, "Do your best, obey the destiny of heaven".
But how many people can truly understand the sadness expressed in this sentence?
It can be said that before this, Tang Feng had been in a passive state, and he didn't even bother to think about the idea of resisting.
On the surface, the giants have shown unprecedented generosity and open-mindedness.
In the case of occupying the advantage of public opinion, not only did he not take the opportunity to smear him, but also responded to his challenge very leniently.
However, who would have thought that it was precisely because they had absolute control over Hollywood that they would not care about giving Tang Feng this opportunity.
Fundamentally, they didn't have it at all, and they put Tang Feng and his movies in their eyes!
Do you think your movie is good?
Still thinking about taking a bite on top of our cake?
Well, then give you this opportunity, not only to break your mouth, but also to make you completely defeated!
This is not really tolerance, it is just a farce of killing chickens and monkeys!
They just want everyone to see what kind of fate those who dare to challenge them will end up!
Tang Feng didn't know it yet, it was just the best result......
When he loses all his aura, there will be more insidious and vicious aftermath that awaits him.
Despite this, he also had a feeling of being out of breath.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have followed Allen, like a fool, playing tricks in front of the whole group.
Luckily, after the release, he gained a deeper understanding of rock and roll.
As a result, it was refracted to his own movie, and he made such a gratifying breakthrough!
found the soul of the movie, and also let Tang Feng see a glimmer of light.
He is sure that as long as this movie can be shot according to his vision, in terms of production level, it will not be inferior to the other two movies!
At least in the upcoming Christmas war, he will have the strength to fight hard, and he really has some confidence!
......
After being delighted, Tang Feng immediately organized the actors to audition.
He doesn't have a lot of time to waste on meaningless self-praise.
"Well, that's the adapted plot."
"I'm sorry, it's only the plot now, and the lines have to be supplemented by all of us."
"Anyway, there are still a few hours before the props are delivered, and we can audition and add lines at the same time."
"Wilton, I'll talk to the actors first, and while you're in this time, you can ask the crew of the equipment team to set up the car camera."
"Before filming starts, I will take them to the van to feel the live environment."
"Also, let the group performers who come to participate in the show with their private cars drive farther away!"
"They're too noisy, and that affects us."
Since it was a road movie, it was naturally impossible to have only one van, that would be too fake.
In order to look more realistic, after determining the filming location, Tang Feng sent a notice to all the group performers in the audition, and those who were interested could drive a private car to Azusa.
In addition to being paid handsomely, he also prepared an insurance policy for everyone, which cost a lot of money, but it kept his promise.
"Even if you can't sign them all, you'll create a file for them, and you'll send them notices when needed."
Given the order, Wilton busily instructed the apparatus to install the camera while beckoning the ensemble to move away from the set.
Soon the whole set was quiet, and Tang Feng quickly entered the state and started the audition before the actual shooting with the actors.
......
"Very good, in the audition just now, everyone's performance was good, and it basically met your role definition."
"But did you know that this is a long journey that will take dozens of hours on end. Even if you have the energy, you will be tired. ”
"So, the next audition, try to show the feeling of exhaustion."
"Angela, when grandpa and his parents were arguing, you were already listening to songs with a headset, and you won't hear what they say, so pretend you don't know anything."
"Alan, the lines are well written, but I want you to show your anger as much as possible."
"It's better to just argue and turn out your treasure and show it to everyone, so that they know that you have a wish that has never been fulfilled."
"Carrey, aside from Spacey making fun of you, you have to act like you don't care about anything, and don't look your eyes on anyone as soon as they speak."
"That's not a boring suicide attempter at all, but more like a mischievous person who is interested in everything."
"Wow, do you see, you were like this just now, thinking that others couldn't see that you were peeking, but in fact, it was all captured by the camera."
As soon as Carrey wanted to defend himself, Tang Feng turned his face and told Spacey and Anne to come, making him embarrassed and blushing.
Personality dictates, although Kerry is not noisy, but he seems to be full of curiosity about everything, and he can't always get into the play.
There was no way, Tang Feng had to make it clear in public, time was limited, and he didn't have the time to talk to him alone.
After instructing Spacey and Anne, Tang Feng couldn't wait to say, "You all remember what I said, right?" Alright then, let's do a second audition. ”
At this moment, Damon, who had been silent, asked with a red face: "Sean, what about me, you haven't told me yet." ”
Tang Feng then remembered that there was also a Damon who had been playing soy sauce, and it seemed that he was too anxious, but he was a little snubbed him.
So, he smiled at Damon and encouraged, "Damon, you're doing a good job, uh, there's nothing to say." ”
"Just like just now, people don't call you, you just keep your face outwards and look at your scenery."
Damon looked confused, "This, this is the one he said at the beginning, a very brilliant character?" ”
