Chapter 643: Villain Spokesperson (Ask for Recommendation)
"Jenny, come here!"
During the lunch break, Jenny was thinking about it when photographer Addison Young beckoned to her.
"Something's wrong!"
Jenny walked cautiously.
- For this photographer who has won the Oscar for Best Cinematography, Jenny is somewhat careful.
She knows that this photographer is of a very high level, and he also has a love and kill grudge with the famous director James Cameron.
Although Cameron is said to have stopped caring, Mr. Photographer is still lingering.
- This is what Mr. Agent told Jenny.
He also told Jenny that Addison Young had a hobby of using his power as a photographer in exchange for a young girl.
In particular, he really loves "photography".
"This is a typical Hollywood photographer!"
Mr. Broker concluded,
But compared to a lot of guys who don't recognize people when they wear their belts, Addison Young has always kept his word. Moreover, he never promises anything beyond his ability, and he will not sabotage Charlotte Booth's business because of his personal hobbies - so his reputation is not bad. ”
That being said, but this is entirely what Mr. Broker says from a male perspective.
From the perspective of a woman like Jenny, photographer Addison Young fully deserves the title of "scum".
Therefore, after entering the crew, she has always stayed away from it.
In particular, after observation, Jenny also found that this photographer also has a very strange sense of humor-
He often laughs at things that aren't funny when he's shooting.
Of course, as an experienced behind-the-scenes worker, Addison Young doesn't laugh out loud.
- After all, the actors are just actors, and the behind-the-scenes staff laugh, but it is a taboo during filming.
When he laughs, he is silent.
Either he has a big mouth but no sound at all, or he simply holds it back, and his face is flushed.
However, although this will not interfere with the shooting, occasionally Jenny will look up and see the strange picture behind the camera after a performance, and she still can't help but have black lines on her head......
And now, such a "scumbag" photographer with a strange sense of humor calls Jenny over, and Jenny's vigilance will naturally rise.
Fortunately, after walking over, Jenny found that Mr. Director was also there.
And in addition to that, there are Johnny Depp and Phoenix Reighton sitting next to them.
- This posture should be to discuss something related to the plot, right?
Jenny's heart suddenly relaxed.
Although, she soon found out that she was relieved too early-
"Jenny, there's something wrong with the way you've been acting lately!"
Mr. Director's words were very direct, which made Jenny a little uncomfortable.
However, Jenny is not a child, and she is still willing to listen to the guidance of a super commercial film director who has directed films many times and won the annual box office championship in North America.
– even if the guidance may not sound good.
Therefore, Jenny didn't care about Director Charlotte's words, and directly put on a serious and respectful expression.
This seems to make Mr. Director very satisfied-
"I can see that you deliberately added some of your own understanding of the script when you performed. ”
He said slowly,
"Fantastical, dark, absurd, funny, because of the character of Jack Sparrow, the story of Pirates of the Caribbean as a whole will take on this style - Jenny you understand that right. ”
Director Charlotte first praised Jenny,
"But—"
"Sure enough, there is a "but"!"
Jenny had a "sure do" look on her face.
But just because the story as a whole has an absurd feel doesn't make you lean on it. ”
Charlotte looked at Jenny and said,
"You've been playing funny in the last few days, and although it's clever, it's not what I want!"
"So, do you want me to go back to the more orthodox way of acting?"
Jenny asked,
"Is there anything wrong with leaning towards the overall style of the story now?"
Jenny was a little unrelatable.
Trying to add funny ingredients to the performance is the result of Jenny's discussion with her agent after studying the script for a long time-
After all, if the overall story is all funny-oriented, then it will look wooden when it is performed in an orthodox way and compared to other funny characters.
Take Charlotte Booth's "Sherlock Holmes" for example, in which Robert Downey Jr., who plays Sherlock Holmes, is more popular than Jude Law, who plays Watson, for this reason.
- After all, Sherlock Holmes in "Sherlock Holmes" is very interesting, while Watson is a little old-fashioned in comparison, so he naturally lacks appeal.
And this is under the premise that Jude Law's appearance is very high.
Jenny hopes to make a splash with the movie "Pirates of the Caribbean", so she naturally doesn't want her performance to be judged as "wooden" or "rigid".
- Jenny believes that her judgment is correct.
And Mr. Agent, who has always shown a deep understanding of the film industry, also agrees that her judgment is correct.
Therefore, after careful thinking and research, Jenny decided to inject more funny elements into her role as Elizabeth Swan.
But now, Mr. Director told her that her understanding was right, but what she did was wrong.
- This naturally makes Jenny, who has always been more assertive, not very acceptable.
"Could it be that he hopes to highlight the "evil" of Johnny Depp's character through the "goodness" of my and Phoenix Reighton characters?"
Jenny suddenly thought of a possibility.
- Indeed, many times, acting and style need to be contrasted.
Just like in many comedies, there must always be a relatively old-fashioned character, and it is a truth to highlight the funny character of the funny.
But the problem is that in such a situation, it is generally a two-protagonist structure of one good and one evil, or the old-fashioned character is a supporting role.
- If Jenny had done that when she played Elizabeth Swan, Elizabeth would have become a complete vase or a supporting character.
This is something Jenny does not want.
For her, it's a sacrifice.
In a way, it was even more uncomfortable than asking her to "dedicate herself to art".
However, in the face of Mr. Director, who said nothing in the crew, Jenny couldn't refute it.
After all, from the point of view of the film itself, this approach is not wrong.
Movies need to be compared.
Some people play flowers, and some people have to play green leaves.
What's more, even if Jenny is unwilling, she is powerless to resist in the face of Mr. Director, who is also a producer and holds the final editing rights.
- No matter how good her performance is, the other party only needs to move the camera and cut the shot, and her efforts can be nullified.
A pure actor, when facing the director, is always weak.
Although Jenny was unwilling, she could only accept it.
The girl who played the heroine for the first time could only wait in silence for the final verdict......
