Chapter 33: The Movie Finishes [Third Update]
"This is going to be the last shot of the movie, are you ready?"
More than a month has passed, and now it is the end of November, as the process of film shooting progresses little by little, the weather is gradually getting cooler in the change of seasons, this month, from Hawaii back to Los Angeles, from short-sleeved T-shirts to long-sleeved shirts, many things in the crew have changed, but what remains unchanged is that Xiansen is still wearing a megaphone on the set, preparing for the next shooting.
The filming of the movie "50 First Loves" was not smooth sailing, and there were many difficulties and troubles encountered during the period, but with the concerted efforts of everyone in the crew, the troubles were also resolved one by one, and the most thankful person is Brent, the photographer who was kicked out by the two major crews, and used his skills to solve many problems that Xiansen could not solve.
"To be honest, time flies so fast, and I feel a little reluctant to think that the next set of shots will be the last set of shots."
While adjusting the position of the camera, Xiansen chatted with Brent: "I've worked hard for you for more than two months, and I have always had a bad temper during filming, and I've been arguing with you a lot these days, so, Brent, I need to say sorry to you here, and thank you for everything you did for this movie." ”
"Haha, director, I'm embarrassed to say that, this movie hasn't finished yet."
Brent replied with a smile, in his opinion, he is very happy to stay in this crew, and although he often conflicts with Xiansen in photography, he can also have a good solution in the end, and these are enough for him, he can take pictures, and he can also communicate things in photography, this is the life he wants.
"yes, the movie isn't over yet."
Xiansen smiled self-deprecatingly, his inexplicable sentimentality came too early, shook his head, picked up the megaphone, and shouted loudly: "Come on, everyone, after the filming is over, I will invite everyone to dinner." ”
"You won't eat at the director's own restaurant, will you? Forget it. ”
After hearing Xiansen say that he was going to have a treat, someone couldn't help but ask, in fact, it's not that the things in the seven restaurants are unpalatable, the most important thing is that in order to save money, in the past two months, almost all the three meals of the crew have been covered by seven restaurants, and the same chef has been cooking things for a long time, and he is tired of eating.
"Of course not, I'll treat you to something else."
Xiansen was very confident when he said this, he still had nearly 300,000 US dollars useless, and it was only how much it cost to invite the crew to dinner.
In Hollywood, in fact, there is generally no special celebration after the movie is completed, at most the leading actors get together and have a small drinking party or something, but Xiansen doesn't think so, in his opinion, if his first step movie is successfully completed, he has to put a few tables and celebrate well, and he has thought about the specific location, just in a hotel closest to the set, Xiansen is going to have a small party there.
The last shot shows Lucy waking up in the morning to find herself in a strange bed, and there is a video next to her bed, which records her and Henry's every day. Although she has no memory, this video carries her love.
After watching the video, Lucy walked out of the room, and a man smiled at her and said, "Come and see our daughter." Lucy looked at her daughter and the man with a charming smile on her face.
Xiansen likes this kind of ending very much, there is no great consummation, no miracles, no fairy tales, some are just changes made for love, such an ending is more touching and more meaningful.
"No, Ju'er, you woke up confused, not frightened. You don't have a man around you. ”
Standing behind the monitor, Xiansen was obviously dissatisfied with Julie Barrymore's performance, and for this last shot, Xiansen became more demanding.
"Wait, Leo, your smile is a little flirtatious, you need to give your wife security."
As soon as Julie was finished here, Leonardo was pointed out over there, and for some reason, there was always something wrong with this last shot.
"One last time, I don't want to shoot it a sixth time."
The first five times were all stopped because of various mistakes, and Xiansen couldn't help but increase his tone a little.
"Attention Departments, the last set of shots, formal"
Before he could finish speaking, Xiansen saw a place that made him very angry.
"What's going on! What's going on with the shadows in the scene? Ready to play peek-a-boo? What does a gaffer do? Blind? Six times wrong, do you all think of this place as a preschool? ”
Speaking of which, Xiansen was very emotional and angrily reprimanded. When he saw that the entire crew was dumbfounded and lowered their heads, Xian Sen let out a long sigh of relief, changed to a calm tone and continued: "I know everyone wants to end it early, but you can't be in a hurry to make a movie, you will make mistakes and chaos in your busyness, I hope you can calm down and talk about it after filming this last set of shots." ”
After speaking, he glanced around and asked, "How is it?" Can you do it? ”
"It can be done."
A few voices scattered around.
"Be louder and tell me if I can do it!"
Xiansen was very dissatisfied with the answer below, and shouted again.
"Director! It can be done! ”
This time, I finally waited for a unified and loud answer that satisfied Xiansen.
Secretly raising a finger, Xiansen lowered his head, looked at the screen of the monitor, and said, "Okay, next, the last set of shots, action." ”
The camera slowly moves, and the show begins again.
Jull got up from the bed in confusion, her expression a little pitiful bewilderment.
"Tape?"
After seeing the camera tape next to the bed, Julie reached out and took it in her hand and curiously stuffed it into the player.
On the screen, he was happy with a strange man.
Jull didn't know if this was true or not, so she was still a little confused.
It wasn't until she walked out and saw a girl shouting the word mom that Jull believed that it was all true.
"Perfect!"
After seeing Julie Barrymore's last performance, Xiansen snapped his fingers excitedly, from doubt to incomprehension to confusion, and finally to believe that a person's emotional changes were perfectly interpreted by Julie.
"The shooting is over! Haha, the shooting is over! ”
Xiansen pointed the megaphone to his mouth and loudly announced such a news.
"Hooray! The end of the shooting!! ”
The crew was boiling, and everyone cheered at the news.
