Chapter 15 How about making a movie?
"Cut, a group of little girls also learn how to hold a camera, do you know what a video camera is? Do you know the movie? Do you know Hollywood? ”
When Catherine and the others hurried out, they saw Lily arguing with someone at the door.
But they seemed to be done arguing, and the man was turning away.
This person was dressed like a hippie, with a hangy face, and he almost didn't write the four big words "bad youth" on his face.
Although hippies have not yet appeared, similar dresses can be traced back to the 20s, and most of the people who can wear such clothes are adolescent rebellious youths.
"What's wrong? Lily? Catherine hurriedly ran over and asked.
"That guy! That guy actually said that our photography agency was a mess at all, and that we were just playing ...... Oh my God, how could he say that! ”
"Forget it, Lily, we don't need to care about that kind of person, he's just a brain cripple."
Brain disability can be found everywhere, but there are always people who feel good about themselves and think that other people are suffering from such conditions.
In this case, there is no need to be angry with the other party, after all, the other party is just a little gangster who can be seen everywhere. To put it mildly, talk to him - the price.
"Brain disability?"
Lily laughed as she heard this, and the episode seemed to be in the past, but she suddenly looked at Catherine with an excited expression.
"Kate, let's go make a movie!"
"Huh?"
How did such an idea pop up suddenly?
Probably angry with that bad young man, right?
Catherine thought about it for a moment, and she wasn't sure what she had to make for the time being.
In her previous life, Catherine once took the directing department, but it was just for fun, and she didn't study seriously at all, just like she also studied some electronic engineering, but now her integrated circuit TV still only has one electric board, and it's all half a bucket of water.
Original, definitely not done.
But if it's plagiarism...... Probably there is no problem, right?
When she got home, Catherine was still thinking about it.
"The Godfather"?
It's a good series, but do you have any money? Can you afford to hire a star of the acting school?
The answer is no, she can't afford to hire any stars.
It looks like it can only be a B-grade film.
But will Lily take it? After all, she wanted to raise her eyebrows, and Catherine didn't want to disappoint her. B-grade films are indeed small costs, but if you want to make money, that's another matter.
Wait a minute......
Something suddenly occurred to Catherine.
Maybe really?
- Blair the Witch.
This horror film shot by several college students really has no demand for the times, and the most important thing is only one thing: hype.
Moreover, this is not a general hype, but a hype of the movie as a documentary, this kind of film is naturally difficult to hype up when the Internet is popular later, but now it is different, this is an era when the development of information is slightly lagging behind, and it is time to shoot "Blair the Witch" now!
The documentary technique of "Blair the Witch" gives every viewer a very real feeling, so that the audience naturally brings themselves into the world of "Blair the Witch", and the protagonists' every move tugs at the heartstrings of the audience. The whole film is written in one go, and the narration of the story rhythm is gradual, creating a terrifying atmosphere little by little. Although there are basically no bloody scenes in the whole story, and the true face of the witch is not revealed, it makes people feel the terrifying atmosphere that permeates the story from the bottom of their hearts. The first-person filming of "Blair the Witch" can be described as quite successful, and it also set a precedent for later films of the same type.
As a representative of B-grade films, the filming of this film has almost no difficulty for Catherine, and she has practiced it anyway, as long as the hype is appropriate, it will be done.
And then what else?
The scene is simple, you can find such a secluded and eerie place in the 90s, then it is even simpler in the 60s.
That's right...... Actor!
In terms of the main actors, there are three people in total, according to the need, probably two women and one man.
Why do we need boys?
It's simple, because there is no DV equipment now, and the camera is a heavy .......
Although there are relatively small devices, they are relatively large.
However, it is not too difficult to shoot that kind of documentary technique, after all, there are many movie lovers nowadays, and low-cost films shot by various portable devices are endless, and this technique is also very common.
The male protagonist is not considered for the time being, but the two heroines, Catherine are ready to go out on her own.
"But who will the other one be?"
She suddenly thought of Ada, who seemed interested in making movies.
When she got back to school, she was the first to arrive at Ada's room.
"Do you want to drink saliva?" Ida poured a glass of water and handed it to Catherine.
"Thank you."
"What's the matter?"
Catherine didn't seem like a person who would hang out, so Ida asked.
"I came up with a script and maybe we could go make a movie! Ada, we'll play the main role! ”
Be the protagonist of the movie!
Catherine was thrilled to think about it.
After all, who wouldn't want to be famous? In ancient China, there were many people who valued fame more than profit.
She doesn't have to worry about making profits, and she also wants some fame to brush up...... Cough.
"You? Making a movie? ”
"Yes!"
Catherine gave her vision and the outline of the script.
Ida listened, seeming a little excited. She may not have known what "Blair the Witch" might bring, but she was so grateful to Catherine that she suddenly felt that she had gone too far and even prepared something like that......
"What's wrong?"
Catherine asked.
"No, nothing." Ida looked at Catherine, her eyes were a little complicated, but the deep hostility seemed to be much less.
Girls are so elusive.
No one knows what they're thinking.
Suddenly, Ida laughed a little wickedly: "Actually, I have something better than Mr. Horn, do you want to try it?" ”
"Don't! Absolutely not!! ”
Catherine stood up as if electrocuted.
She also seemed to notice that her reaction was a little bigger, and then she did it uneasily.
"I'm sorry, I'm a little ...... Uncomfortable. ”
Catherine shook her head.
Although it was indeed very comfortable, somehow, when she thought about it, her mind would be difficult to concentrate and her mood would be irritable, probably because the male consciousness was dominating the body, right?
"Maybe you should see a psychiatrist...... That's right! ”
Ida thought for a moment.
"I know a psychiatrist whose hypnotherapy is amazing, maybe you can try it?"
Hypnotherapy?
Catherine has heard it, but there is a difference between the real hypnotherapy and the novel, it is impossible to control the mind or something, hypnotherapy, it is just a very simple psychotherapy, not as magical as imagined.
In the U.S., it's not embarrassing to see a psychiatrist, just go to see a doctor if you have a problem -- of course, that's just for middle-class people and above.
But...... Maybe be able to give it a try?
Catherine actually had some expectations.
