Chapter 30: Framing, Hawaii
The filming of the film went smoothly, and in Xiansen's words, it was a great team with strong cohesion. After filming in Los Angeles for more than a month, Xiansen finally decided to take the crew to Hawaii for filming and the next phase of work.
"Are we really going to Hawaii?"
While packing up his things, Rachel asked Xiansen, in Xiansen's "50 First Loves" Rachel will play Lucy, that is, Julie Barrymore's own sister, which is different from the original script, in the original script, Lucy has a brother, but in order to make Rachel have a satisfactory role, Xiansen himself modified it. It's just for private purposes, it's as simple as that.
"Hey, Rachel, we're going to film, not to travel, and we're probably going back in a few days, so you don't have to bring so many things."
When he saw that Rachel was eager to stuff everything into his bag, Xiansen couldn't help but remind him. Rachel's room at the hotel is next door to Xiansen, but she usually spends her days in Xiansen's room except for bedtime, and almost everything is placed here, and Xiansen's room has become her storage room.
"I know I'm carrying all the things I have to use. You see sunscreen, moisturizer, post-sun mask, swimsuit"
With that, Rachel turned around, held up two thin swimsuits, and asked, "Which of these two clothes do you think is prettier?" ”
Looking at a sky blue and orange swimsuit in Rachel's hand, Xiansen smiled evilly.
"How do I know this, I can only see it when you wear it."
As soon as Xiansen's words fell, he saw Rachel walk into the bathroom with his clothes, and a few minutes later, he walked out of it again.
"What do you think of this?"
Seeing Rachel wearing a set of sky blue three-point swimsuits and walking out, looking at the snow-white skin exposed to the air and the slightly bulging private place, Xiansen swallowed his saliva unconsciously.
"Rachel, come here, your clothes are a little slanky."
Trying to calm his forehead, Xiansen beckoned and motioned for Rachel to come to his side. Looking at his clothes, Rachel immediately understood Xiansen's thoughts, blushed, shook his head and said, "I won't be fooled by you." ”
After saying that, he walked into the bathroom and changed his clothes back.
"Well, this girl is causing trouble."
Licking his lips, Xiansen took a deep breath, he was almost about to turn into a beast, just a little bit
Hawaii, the only state in the United States made up of archipelagos, is full of flowers, fresh air, and vitality. There's the exuberant hula, the war-like Pearl Harbor, the Polynesian Cultural Center, the Volcanoes National Park, the picturesque Honolulu and the romantic Waikiki Beach.
It has become one of the most attractive tourist destinations in the United States.
The Waikiki Aquarium in Hawaii, which is the only aquarium on the island of Hawaii, has a monopoly that represents huge profits, and after bargaining for half a day, Xiansen rented a small piece of filming space at a rent of $10,000 a day, which made Xiansen's heart bleed.
"Evil capitalists, evil vampires!"
It seems that accusing capitalists has become a habit of Xiansen.
It's a shame not to go swimming at the beach in Hawaii, but if you go swimming during working hours, you're sorry for the dollar bills with Franklin's face on them.
"Hi Leo, what's wrong with you? When you get to Hawaii, you can't act, do you? Look at your terrible performance, are you nervous? ”
"Ju'er, what the hell are you thinking? You're amnesia, amnesia isn't an idiot, you know? ”
"Rachel, how are you in the camera? If you want to play, stay away from here! ”
"Brent! Which beauty are you looking at? Do I need a romantic touch? Where did your camera point me? ”
“”
Before a set of shots was finished, Xiansen had already scolded the entire crew, and it was only later that he found that no one seemed to be thinking about the movie, except for himself.
"Okay, disband, you guys go play."
No way, the charm of Hawaii is huge, and for the crew members who have worked for so long, the first thing to be able to come here is, of course, to relax.
"Yay!"
As soon as Xiansen's words fell, everyone began to hurriedly pack up the shooting tools.
"Go play, I'm watching."
Xiansen shook his head and waved his hand helplessly.
Making a movie requires concentration, and without concentration, all performances will become fake. Instead of letting these guys who are no longer on the movies continue to work, it is better to give them a day off. Thinking of this, Xiansen put down the megaphone in his hand and lay down in the middle of the empty set.
"Director, are you angry?"
On the set, a very weak voice floated into Xiansen's ears, and looking in the direction from which the voice came, it was Ruiman, the actor who played the girl.
"No, I'm too harsh."
Smiling, Xiansen shook his head and gave his own answer.
"Then director, aren't you going to play?"
Rayman's voice is very good, like the big sister next door, yes, unlike Rachel's little girl next door, Rayman gives people a more mature taste.
"That's a young man's thing? Don't I like it? ”
Xiansen replied self-deprecatingly, in his opinion, the movie is much more interesting than Hawaii.
"The director is very old, huh? I thought the director was only 20 years old. ”
Ryman deliberately feigned a tone of surprise and quipped, "Can the director tell me the secret of rejuvenation?" ”
Xiansen touched his head a little embarrassed, the little girl now is so powerful, she can choke people for a long time and don't know how to deal with it.
"Ruiman, you know, never provoke a director, because they'll give you little shoes."
Xiansen jumped up from the ground as he spoke, and continued: "So, now you accompany me to check all the equipment, remember, check carefully." ”
Even if the rest of the crew went to the beach, Xiansen was not prepared to waste this time checking the equipment and props needed to avoid glitches during filming. As a director responsible for his own films, Xiansen is happy to do things that don't require him to do.
If you want to succeed, do 200 percent effort, even if you feel like a fool before that. -- Excerpt from "Rayman Notes"
