The Directors Guild of America stipulates that before the production company and producer intervene, the director must be given at least 1o weeks after the basic shooting is over to complete the first cut of the film, that is, the purest director's cut.
The film was shot on set and finished in the editing room.
The same materials can be cut out in different versions, not only the rhythm and style can be different, but even the story can be different.
If you're an actor and you've been around for a long time to get a chance to perform in a scene, it means a lot to you...... Congratulations, you've become garbage on the floor of the editing room.
Because there are small scenes that are not used at any time, they are all cut by the director or editor.
"Little Sunshine Beauty" is nominally an independent film, Ye Wei is the first producer and director, and seems to have supreme power, and he can cut it however he wants.
Not to mention "The Exorcism Video", just like "The Wedding is Coming" Although there are two editors, he and Suzanne Hines, but she actually started it, and he is responsible for the structure, rhythm and style of the film.
A good editor can bring chemistry, but he's so attached to the film that he doesn't want anyone else to get involved.
I can only think about it, Pretong, DreamWorks staring at it, especially DreamWorks now attaches very, very importance to LMS, which is the kind of attention that is more important than ever in the past, like betting on the last gambler with red eyes, which directly brings a lot of new effects to the entire post-system.
Originally, Ye Wei planned to continue to work with Suzanne Hines, why not, continue the model of "The Wedding is Coming", and talk about it, but was notified by Gonzman that she couldn't get into the eyes of the big guys.
Don't worry about how he is invited, having their connections, it's not a problem.
But Ye Wei tried to convince them to let him use Hines, firstly, he wanted to continue to use the old buddy, and secondly, big-name editors meant authority and constraints.
"Hines is no longer suitable for this project." Gozman's words were serious and unforgiving, "No one will be happy when she is an editor.
If the film fails, or is only generally successful, people will say why not find a big-name editor in the first place?
Even if it is very successful, there will be such an idea, will it be more successful to find a big-name editor at the beginning?
Ye Xian can't do anything by himself, there is still one camp supporting him in the disagreement of digital to film, this time no, all big and small people want big-name editors, he can't compete.I feel very uncomfortable, but I can only tell SΓΉ Hines: "The plan has changed, I have to assign a big-name editor to me, I can't change it, I'm sorry.Susan, I'll work together next time."
It can't be said that Hines is not disappointed, but she can also see it, "It's nothing, this industry is like this, I can find another job, and we will work together next time." She also encouraged him to edit well, there are pros and cons to working with big-name editors, and you can learn a lot, but be careful to stick to your ideas.
"Movies are always directed by the director." She said.
Ye Wei nodded heavily, so as not to let LMS become the work of a certain editor, regardless of the big and small names.
The editor still has to be redesigned.Michael Kahn Spielberg's Queen's Editor,. [,!] has 3 Oscars and 3 nominations.No, he belongs to "Munich Tragedy", this film will be released on December 23 at the end of the year, but it has just started filming, and it is more nervous than LMS.
Ye Wei still has a little shadow of Kahn, and still remembers how Kahn and Spielberg used traditional linear editing to cut "Happiness Terminal", and he also broke a kem......
Looking at Gonzman's list of optional contact editors, he was reluctantly surprised, there were too many top people, Petro Scalia (2 Oscars and 2 nominations), Joe Hasin (2 Oscars and 2 nominations), ...... Even including Dedie Allen!
Although the 79-year-old Diddy Allen only had 3 Oscar nominations and did not win the award, she is the biggest name, the originator of the avant-garde editor, one of the originators of road movies, "Bonnie and Clyde" was cut by her, and she also cut "Miracle Boy" (Oscar nomination), and she has cut "Imminent" in 2oo1.
Dedie Allen is interested in joining LMS, I have to say that it is really to save face, but Ye Wei does not want this face, she is very brilliant in the early and middle years of New Hollywood, but she is already old in the 21st century, and she can't inject much vitality into the movie.
Yes, he admires her very much, but people will grow old after all, and LMS is not an old-fashioned road movie, it is a vibrant, absurd, crazy story.
After the final eventually, it was William Goldenberg who was negotiated, almost 46 years old, 2 Oscar nominations, 1999's "Inside Story" and 2oo3's "Pentium Age".
And...... Among these people, he is the smallest card.Imagine if you invite Dedie Allen, Ye Wei feels that he is not a puppet, and there will be disagreements in the editing, many times irreconcilable, what should he do when the time comes, what will he do to fight with that old woman?
Don't look at him now that he has a good record and has become a two-faced genius, it doesn't mean that he has the right to cut the final cut. That thing is like Monroe's dress, you think you are going to see it, but in fact it is still being pressed. He has to prepare for a possible conflict, and he doesn't want to end up signing Alan Smith's words.
After returning from Toronto, since mid-June, Ye Wei has taken the lead in cutting films in the "Cutting Worker" film and television post-production studio in Santa Monica, but it is not as urgent as "The Wedding is Coming", so he goes to work and has weekends off.
But he doesn't have that much time, LMS will be released in November, before it has to be submitted for review and rating, make copies, hold film critics' screenings, screenings, sign up for film festivals, etc., and it will be completed by early November at the latest.The plan is to cut the first version in late July, and then release the version, soundtrack, mixing, etc....... It will take 2-3 months to complete by mid-September.
Whether it's two months, three months, or faster, or slower, it depends on how long it takes to go from the director's cut to the release.
The default length of LMS is 1oo-12o minutes, and Gonzman told him that it is best not to cut 12O minutes, 11O minutes is a lot, and 1oo minutes is the most suitable.
Of course, Ye Wei hopes to be able to go to the school's football camp in August.
In this half a month, the rough cut version has already been completed, and the first version is not far away.
His cooperation with William Goldenberg is very good, mainly because now the director's cut is cut, Goldenberg is more to help, and there are few disagreements.
Stepping into July, the weather is even hotter, and the summer sea breeze is steaming.
After getting off work on Friday on the 1st, it's the weekend again, in the evening sky, Ye Wei drove home, this week is not a date week with Nina, we got together in Chicago last weekend, see you next weekend, he can arrange it by himself, and go to the beach to bask in the sun and see the beauties with his friends, it will also be quite tasteful.
When he just got home, just parked the car and got out of the car, Duoduo seemed to come out of nowhere, smiling around him, showing off her hands, swinging around, only to see that her ten fingernails were coated with a layer of red nail polish, and her face was full of pride.
"Wow!" Ye Wei's heart jumped, and he asked in surprise: "Nina is here!?" As I walked towards the house, I looked around.
"It's not Nina, it's ββββββ Na!" Duoduo jumped up and down beside her, still waving her hands, "Ana is here! Brother, look at my fingers, hehe!"
Ana? Ye Wei sighed, and her heart was also happy, but how could she be the same.
"Bella, Toto, go!" There was a laughing shout from the backyard of the house, and there were two puppies running at a gallop, obviously being pulled by someone just now, and behind them, a little golden girl figure was also running, not Anna Sophia who was, her body and face had grown up, and her smile was bright, "But !! it's me, your lucky charm, surprise?"
"Of course." Ye Wei smiled and looked at her a few times, "Ana, we haven't seen each other for a while, it's awesome to see you." I haven't seen much of it this year, but I've been contacted by phone from time to time.
Anna Sophia wrinkled her nose: "I haven't seen you for a long time! You didn't look for me, so I came to you." She raised her right fist and cheered, "We're going on a date tonight, I'm going to see 'The Exorcism Video,' Yunik Ku. [,!]Le's movie!"
"I'm going too, I'm going too!" Duoduo hurriedly shouted, although he didn't know what it was, "I'm going too!"
"Now that "Exorcism Video" is R-rated, only adults can take us in to watch it, and I can't watch it if I want to." Ye Wei couldn't help laughing, "Rules are rules."
"What are the ru1e? I only know rude!" Anna Sophia shouted, suddenly reaching out to cover Duoduo's mouth, and whispered, "Let's just sneak in." Duoduo nodded repeatedly, and Anna immediately sneaked into the house with her, like an agent.
Ye Wei couldn't stop laughing, and Toto and Bella followed to make trouble.
