Anika's Diary******

"I woke up this morning with a sore body and a buzzing in my head, just like I felt when I went on vacation to Palm Springs in college and had three days and three nights in a row — well, that's why I still don't know who my child's dad is. Damn cocaine!

Charlize said I was sleepwalking last night! Oh my God, I never knew I had this problem! It must have been that damn Charlotte who has been stressing out my job lately, this damn newbie!

However, it may be that the way I sleepwalked last night really scared him, and this guy actually let me rest for half a day for the first time. Eighty percent of the stock of the company I recently bought called Cisco is going to dive, and I have to call someone to help me clear my position......

The next page of the diary******

"When I told me that I had sold my Cisco stock, Charlotte looked at me with a very strange look for a long time, saying that I would definitely regret it. Is this guy supposed to be Warren Buffett?

However, unleashing the Great Prophecy wasn't the purpose of this guy coming to talk to me - this damn novice director wanted to modify the set design and makeup, and the scene was originally an artist, so he didn't need to worry about it, but this makeup made me a makeup artist!

Damn, can't he honestly compete with the actors' performances like other novice directors? Is the performance good, how suitable is this kind of retreat for pointing fingers! Even if you are from a technical position, you can focus on the technical department so much, and you still don't let us technicians have a happy time!?

I heard that Charlotte admires James Cameron who filmed "Terminator 2" very much, this kind of director does not compete with the actors' performances, but plays with the crooked atmosphere of technicians, it started with that guy, damn Cameron!

Well, it seems a bit harsh to say that. Actually, Spielberg was like this earlier, and that damn pit god George Lucas! It's been a long time since the pre-Star Wars saga was filmed, and there is still no movement at all. I heard from people who knew him that he seemed to have a falling out with his teacher Kershner because of "Star Wars 2", and no one would help him revise his lines in the second year of secondary school, so he didn't dare to do it!

However, I actually like "Terminator 2" quite a lot, I am also a single mother, and Sarah Connor in it makes me feel a lot of empathy, especially my son is also called John ......"

"I'm!!

I spent the whole day trying to toss around Charlotte's new request for weirdo makeup, and this guy only looked at it and vetoed me!

Originally, the mutant weirdos in the movie, as long as they were ugly and disgusting in terms of makeup, this work is quite simple, as long as they make their eyes uncomfortable, how to do it. But what are the requirements now?

"I want to keep my ugly and disgusting appearance, but at the same time try to express as much hideousness and mystery as possible, and at the same time bring a touch of religious sacredness" - what is this? This is simply to make people look to the left and right at the same time! I can't do the doppelganger, I can't change two heads!

If I can meet this demand, I can go to the crew of the "Alien" series to make up the aliens, and use this small crew to listen to your advice!?"

The next page of the diary******

"Well, I may have underestimated Charlotte, but he doesn't just point fingers......

After the makeup plan I came up with yesterday was rejected by him all at once, I was a little at a loss, but I didn't expect that today he actually proposed a plan - to design makeup with reference to the totem paintings of primitive religions.

This is really an idea, primitive religion, it is indeed hideous and mysterious, and there is a sense of religious sacredness. As for the ugly and disgusting, how many of those totems of primitive people are not ugly and disgusting in the eyes of modern people? One of the purposes of people's original use is to intimidate the enemy!

In particular, Charlotte also drew a few sketches for me in order to give me a reference, although his painting skills are not superb, but I have to say that these sketches are still a little interesting.

I designed a new weirdo makeup scheme according to the picture, and it's not bad......"

The next page of the diary******

"Charlotte ended up with a new makeup scheme, but for some reason, every time I put on a couple of actors who were weirdos, he would come over and fill them out himself. I don't see any big difference in these strokes, but he says it's the finishing touch......

Well, if it weren't for John's recent tuition fees, I was relatively short of money, and after listening to this insult to my professional level, I would have to use my own makeup pen to "put the finishing touch" on him......"

The next page of the diary******

"It seems that it is not only me, the makeup artist, who is found fault with Mr. Director.

Today, he's starting to resent the cannibal house that serves as a home for the mutants, the log cabin where the women of our crew take turns living, and "cannibal house" is what we call it in private.

Not only did he direct the crew to rearrange the hut, but he also painted several strange patterns on the floor of the hut with dark red paint of unknown nature, which looked like a sacrificial magic circle for black magic from a distance. However, the paint smells of rust, so it can't be real blood, right?

However, why is he tossing so much? I've already filmed part of the cannibal house scene before, so do you want to reshoot it!?

That's right, maybe for the purpose of saving time and cost, from the start of filming to the present, he rarely struggles repeatedly on a certain shot, and there is no entanglement and death that those novice directors should have. Now maybe it's because the simple lens shooting went well, and he was given room for his budget, and he was finally going to start tossing......"

The next page of the diary******

"Thank goodness, Charlotte finally let us techies go and started tossing the actors!

Sure enough, as I had expected, the cannibal house was reshot! Moreover, not only the scene, but also the script and the camera were greatly adjusted. For this reason, photographer Addison Young also argued with him for a few words, but in the end he seemed to be convinced.

However, the most unfortunate ones are the actors, especially poor Sally, who is said to have adjusted her role the most, although the overall duration has not changed much, but the difficulty has increased significantly, especially to do completely different performances on the surface and the deep level - now I am completely convinced that Sally did not get the role by sleeping with her. This is simply a problem, can anyone be Jodie Foster!?"

The next page of the diary******

In order for Sally to perform the so-called "double-layered" effect, Charlotte specially prepared two new scripts for her, which are said to be completely different from what is written. I specifically asked Sally, but she said that she wanted to keep it secret, and the director asked for it.

Maybe this special script mode is really useful, maybe Sally really has the potential to become Jodie Foster, in the later shooting, her performance is really good, although she is often scolded by Charlotte, but once the requirements are met, the texture and layering shown in that kind of performance is really very different from before.

Especially in the cannibal house and several other scenes that have been specially arranged by Charlotte with a strong sense of mystery and horror, I always feel that in her performance, in addition to the fear and excitement required by the normal script, there is also an unknown gloom and mystery that people want to explore. This feeling clearly elevates the appeal of her role, even if I'm just a makeup artist.

Could it be that the mysterious second script written by Charlotte really has such magical powers?"

The next page of the diary******

"Maybe Mr. Director really has some magic.

In the recent shooting, not only Sally, who is particularly valued by him, but also several other main actors, the performance quality has also improved significantly, especially when expressing emotions such as fear, which is very good.

Of course, according to the assistant director "Old Gun" Richard's private statement, these guys may have been simply frightened by our Mr. Director, and the fear they carried when performing was their truest emotion.

Maybe that's the case. Recently, Charlotte's majesty on the set has become heavier and heavier, and when he sits behind the camera, the temperature of the entire set has to drop by two degrees, and the terrifying and gloomy low air pressure that spreads out can be clearly felt by even us onlookers, not to mention the actors who bear the brunt of it......

Maybe this guy really has the talent to be a horror film director. ”

"Erica was scolded and cried by our director.

As a supporting actress who died in the first half of the movie, Erica's character is brilliant except for a small ambiguous passion scene, and it is time to die. But it's just this paragraph, Charlotte is never satisfied with her performance.

Really, although I don't like this girl who is full of blue pond flavor, but it's too much to be said so harshly. Afterwards, the "old gun", who is the assistant director, specially asked me to comfort her. No way, who made me the only one in this crew who can be considered an older woman!

However, "Old Gun" is really a good person, if the whole crew didn't have his help to coordinate, I'm afraid some people would have been unable to stand Charlotte's filming method of constantly putting pressure on the actors. I heard that he had a high relationship with Charlotte before, and it seems that this is really a good man who is willing to pay for his friends.

Especially his bushy red beard is so sexy......"

"Everything is going well for the crew today, maybe it won't be long before it is finished. However, as a diary, there is nothing to remember today. ”

"I really don't want to keep a diary!

The damn psychiatrist said that keeping a diary would relieve my psychological stress and reduce my occasional hysteria. But after writing a diary for so long, why don't I feel anything at all?

The young doctor named Sweet couldn't be an impostor, right?

That's not possible. So young, and the surname is still "Britney......

In fact, a middle-aged single mother like me, who doesn't have much money, knows that the easiest way to reduce my psychological pressure is to give me a reliable man!

Well, in fact, those with threaded vibrations are actually not bad, but they cost a little more electricity......

God, please give me a sturdy man!Amen!(There was blacked out in this line, and Annika apparently felt ashamed and wanted to cross it out.)

"The Lord Almighty answered my prayers!!

After today's shooting, Lao Gun received a phone call that seemed to be his ex-wife who refused his request to see his children next week, which made him feel a little depressed. Charlotte asked me to comfort him, and I said yes without much thought. Before leaving, he gave me a bottle of agave.

I talked a lot with the old gun, about his ex-wife, about my John, and slowly, a bottle of tequila went in......

...... By the time I came to my senses, the two of us were cuddled together and my panties were hanging from my ankles. I have to say that the "gun" of the old gun is full of firepower, but it is not old at all......

The two of us talked late and the atmosphere was good, and I thought that if I had two more bottles of agave, maybe he would have proposed to me. Unfortunately, a damn phone call interrupted all this, it seemed to be from an important investor, he didn't say, I didn't ask.

Now the most important thing is, hurry up and tell little John that he might have a new dad!

Okay, this seems to be a bit of a rush, but the old gun is such a good man, I must grasp it!!"
