Yes, it's not cool enough!

In fact, the failure of most commercial blockbusters can be summed up in these three words.

Just like a lot of helplessness in life, it can also be summed up by the three words "no money".

Of course, this is only the ultimate consequential reason.

There may be many reasons for this.

But more often than not, those deep-seated reasons are actually just possibilities.

In this world, in everything you do, there will be elements that lead to success and elements that lead to failure.

How to succeed while carrying countless elements that can lead to failure is actually an ability.

- That's how the so-called miracle was created.

Hollywood, on the other hand, is a place where miracles often emerge.

Who makes the film industry have many factors that cannot be seen clearly and cannot be explained, and many times can only be described as luck?

- In the culture and entertainment industry, even if you make up the elements of someone else's success, you may not be able to replicate the success.

On the contrary, it is the experience of failure that can be analyzed and analyzed.

And after Charlotte analyzed his original time and space "Pirates of the Caribbean 2: Gathering Soul Coffin", she realized that the multi-line narrative is actually not the real reason for the movie's reputation.

In fact, generally speaking, movies with multi-line narratives may not do well at the box office, but the reputation is generally good.

- Audiences may sometimes not be able to understand the plot of the movie once and again because of the multi-line narrative, but this does not prevent them from being unaware and giving high marks to it.

At this point, "Vulgarity", "Two Big Smoking Guns" and even "Crazy Stone" and "Crazy Racing" can be said to be positive examples.

What really causes the audience to give low marks to movies with multi-line narratives is that the multi-line narrative is not well told, or in other words, the movie has an imbalance in rhythm because of the multi-line narrative.

- The previous narrative is so abrasive that the high tide is too late or too short.

Not to mention in the cinema, even in bed, people will complain.

And in Charlotte's original time and space, the problem of "Pirates of the Caribbean 2: Gathering Soul Coffin" is precisely here-

Gore Wibinski is too obsessed with multi-line narrative in this film.

So much so that every time I go to a place where the audience is looking forward to doing a big job, I always pass it off and stop abruptly.

This unpleasant feeling accompanies the audience for almost the entire movie, and with some failures in the plot, it is naturally difficult to get a good reputation.

For this point, after ten years of training as a director, Charlotte has seen it very clearly.

He knows that it is actually more difficult to change the plot direction of "Gathering Soul Coffin".

- After all, this is the second part of the "Pirates of the Caribbean" trilogy, and it has the role of connecting the previous and the next, and many details are related to the third "End of the World", which cannot be easily changed.

However, with the use of editing and his powerful narrative skills, he can completely solve the problem of "Pirates of the Caribbean 2: Soul Coffin" where the climax is always brushed off.

Once so, the multi-line narrative will go from being a flaw of the film to a virtue of it.

People who understand it completely will be amazed, and even those who don't understand it will choose to watch it again without realizing it.

- By the way, contribute a second movie ticket.

To do this, a lot of effort needs to be put into post-editing and post-production.

In fact, Pirates of the Caribbean 2: Coffin has been cut four times so far.

Each time, the change was significant;

Every time, Charlotte was not satisfied.

This caused the editors at Ghost Party Studios to scratch their heads and almost riot, but with Charlotte's power, they finally started the fifth cut honestly.

"Actually, every time I have made progress in these editings. ”

When communicating on the phone with Philip Bierman, who is responsible for following up on Disney's Pirates of the Caribbean project, Charlotte told the truth,

"Asking them to do it all over again, it's just that I think they can do better. ”

“......”

"Then you should tell them!"

Philip Bierman complained in his heart.

The reason why he specifically called Charlotte to communicate about the editing was because the editing plan of "Gathering Soul Coffin" was rejected by Charlotte several times.

This made him a little worried, thinking that this "Gathering Soul Coffin" might not achieve the desired effect.

Who knows, but it's because Charlotte is too demanding.

"I can't tell them I'm satisfied!"

As if reading Philip Bierman's heart, Charlotte explained,

"Sometimes, you can't tell creators that they've actually passed – then they're more likely to settle for 60 points and stop going for more, and you can only keep pressuring them with a "you're all trash" attitude so that they can push their limits unconsciously under the influence of fear and pressure. ”

“......”

- Devil!

At the moment, Philip Bierman only had this feeling in his heart.

However, he was still a little worried-

"Aren't you afraid that the pressure you're exerting will be too great for the editors to bear?"

"Don't worry!"

Charlotte seemed confident,

"That's the good thing about good grades and prestige in the past – as a superdirector, I just have to tell them, 'You're a pile of garbage, but you can become more useful than the average garbage,' and they'll feel motivated to work hard. ”

"Also, those guys weren't stupid, they couldn't read my mind, but they could still feel the progress between a few cuts — and that way, with a direction to work on, they were able to turn the pressure I put on me into motivation. ”

"Really?"

Although Philip Bierman was still a little skeptical about this, he could only choose to believe Charlotte.

Who asked Disney to completely hand over the control of the series to Charlotte?

What's more, Philip Bierman, as a producer, although he also has some experience, is not an expert like Charlotte who goes deep into the crew and can understand where the limits of everyone's abilities are.

This allows him to squeeze the potential of his employees far less simply than Charlotte did.

Of course, this is also related to his lack of prestige.

"Success can make successful people have more capital for success!"

Philip Bierman sighed to himself.

He originally wanted to persuade Charlotte to almost forget the editing matter.

- In his opinion, the fourth cut version of "Pirates of the Caribbean 2: Gathering Soul Coffin" is already quite good.

He didn't know why Charlotte was still dissatisfied and wanted to be more refined, but now he couldn't say anything about the rest of the story.

"Just let him continue on his own terms! Anyway, depending on what he means, there should still be a clear direction. That way, it's okay to spend a little more time. 」

At this time, Philip Bierman felt the benefits of the trilogy's continuous shooting......
