Chapter 25 Preliminary Publicity
"Jared Leto, I'm amazed by your performance, and you're ready to prepare your acceptance speech!"
"Jennifer Garner, "Dallas Buyers Club" would have lost a lot of warmth without you, and I believe we will have another cooperation!"
"Mark, without your help, this movie wouldn't have been able to finish so smoothly!"
"Matthew, after getting to know you, I really understood the true meaning of acting, and I forgot to tell you that I also participated in a movie, and I am also the protagonist!"
The finale banquet can't be counted as a finale banquet, because the number of people is too small, and it can only be regarded as a party at most!
The entire crew, plus makeup artists, photographers, lighting, assistant directors and actors, is less than 20 people!
It is the most humble crew that Shen Lin has ever stayed in!
It's just a few people who have created the miracle of shooting a movie in two weeks!
After a few glasses of wine, Shen Lin began to sensationalize. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
This trick was learned by him from others, and Jennifer Geisinger, the director of "Mad Men", thanked the creators at the finale banquet of the first season.
Foreigners like to do this.
When getting married, the best man and bridesmaid have a speaking session, and at the funeral, family and friends have a speaking session!
"Thank you, Director Shen, you are the most powerful director I know!"
Jared Leto was a little moved, and blinked charmingly.
"Jared, I'm a straight man!"
Damn, I was almost unmoved!
This dude seems to be a little immersed in the character!
In other words, Jared Leto looks good in women's clothes.
"Director Shen, I really want to introduce my husband to you, he is as talented as you!"
Jennifer Garner abruptly mentioned her husband.
"Your husband? Ben Affleck? ”
Lao Mei's beer was not very popular, and Shen Lin quickly understood that Jennifer Garner was talking about Ben Affleck.
"Yes, you know him?"
"Of course, the director of "Escape from Tehran."
Shen Lin is not particularly familiar with Ben Affleck, but he knows that this product will become a new generation of Batman in the future.
Batman is very tall in the hearts of the American people, and has been the favorite superhero of the American people for decades, there is no one!
The actor who can play Batman must be an actor specially recognized by Lao Mei, not necessarily handsome enough to alarm the Party Central Committee, but must conform to Lao Mei's aesthetics, strong and upright!
Ben Affleck fits that very well.
The life of this product is almost the same as opening a hanging!
In 1998, 26-year-old Ben Affleck and his friend Matt Damon jointly won the Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay and the Golden Globe Award for Best Screenplay for the film "Soul Catcher".
In 2001 he starred in the classic World War II film Pearl Harbor and was voted "Sexiest Man" by People magazine in 2002.
Of course, "Pearl Harbor" lost a lot of money, and almost bankrupted the newly established DreamWorks - 210 million publicity, 180 million at the North American box office, and 2.6 at the overseas box office, a loss of almost 100 million!
Ben Affleck's fortunes have changed dramatically since he starred in "Pearl Harbor."
In a short period of time, there will never be an A-grade production looking for him again.
Fortunately, this guy is versatile, and he changed careers to become a producer and director!
In 2013, as a director and producer, he won the Best Director Award at the 70th Golden Globe Awards and the Best Picture Award at the 85th Academy Awards for "Escape from Tehran".
Fame has risen!
Ben Affleck has recently been involved with Warner Bros. again, and it seems that it will not be long before Batman is re-released.
However, Shen Lin and Warner Bros. are very stiff, even if it is really like Jennifer Garner said, he will have the same interests as Ben Affleck, it is unlikely that they will talk together, and it is impossible for two people from different camps to become friends!
Shen Lin understood this very well, and Jennifer Garner also understood it, so he said a few words and immediately changed the topic.
"Director, when is this film going to be released? I'll be tweeting my fans to support it! ”
Jared Leto is familiar with the role of a topic shifter.
"It's supposed to be released around Thanksgiving, but I'll be attending the Toronto Film Festival in September to officially start the promotion. In the early stage of publicity work, I have already let the touchstone be done! ”
Shen Lin picked up the beer and explained while drinking.
"We can also help with the platform if needed!"
Matthew offered to help promote the film.
"Okay, I'll let you know when the time comes! Ay! If it weren't for this year's Cannes, I would definitely choose to attend the Cannes Film Festival! ”
I sighed with some regret.
Although the editing is almost completed, it takes a lot of time to post-edit the sound, soundtrack, etc., according to Shen Lin's estimate, it will not be until at least June that "Dallas Buyers Club" can be taken out to meet people!
But at that time, Cannes was over, and it was just in time for Lao Mei's summer vacation!
The summer vacation files are all super blockbusters, and 2013 is a blockbuster "Thor 2: Dark World", "Pacific Rim", "Superman: Man of Steel", "Wolverine 2", "Fast and Furious 6", most of which are concentrated in 6, 7, and 8 months.
You made a movie like "Dallas Buyers Club" choose to be released in this kind of current period?
Looking for death?
……
"Bill, the editing of the movie is almost finished, and you can help find a few professional sound engineers for the follow-up vocal music."
In Touchstone Film Company, after Shen Lin and Bill Dorothy watched the finished film, they fell into deep thought, and after a long time, Shen Lin spoke.
"No problem, this movie deserves good publicity!"
Bill Dorothy is a veteran Hollywood film promoter, and after watching "Dallas Buyers Club", he actually has a kind of inner throbbing, and he can guarantee that this movie will definitely meet the Oscar level!
The film's reaching the Oscar level is only the basic condition for participating in the Oscars, and the rest is publicity and public relations!
"I'm going to release it before Thanksgiving, and the large-scale publicity should wait a while before starting, and now we need to hype up the movie!"
For film marketing, Shen Lin is no worse than any veteran.
"Tell me about it."
"We can use Twitter and Youtube, for example, to upload a few stills on Twitter, Jared Leto is super popular, and if you don't take advantage of it, it's a waste! We can also upload some movie clips on Youtube to attract moviegoers, and as for offline media, we don't need their intervention for the time being. ”
Shen Lin's idea is very clear, relying on Jared's popularity to drive people's expectations for the movie in the early stage, and when it is actually released, that is the time when the feast begins!
"Okay."
Bill didn't have any opinions, "By the way, Dick Cook, please let me ask you, when are you going to officially launch the Interstellar project?" ”
"When I come back from China, I guess filming will start in August, and you can help me contact Matthew and Scarlett."
"Scarlett? Scarlett Johansson? ”
"That's right!"
"But she doesn't have a schedule!"
That's right, Sister Widow is very popular and busy, all kinds of Marvel movies need Sister Widow to support the scene, in addition, she has to hone her acting skills and act in a lot of feature films.
Shen Lin thought for a while, and then said, "Then try to contact Jennifer Lawrence, she should be very interested!" ”
