Chapter 423: The filming of "Area 51" is completed

Xu Nantong ignored the criticism of insiders and devoted himself to the filming of the new movie.

Knowing about the new movie shooting, the people in the company are still very thoughtful, and many people volunteered to join.

Xu Nan's movies are indeed regarded as unpopular by many in the circle, but they can be popular, such as Paris, who has gone to run for president, and Eliza is now famous.

Many people are not qualified to pick and choose at all, as long as they have roles, including some behind-the-scenes personnel, and they also hope to have more experience in shooting a movie.

But Xu Nan didn't want anyone, because this movie doesn't need many people at all, and even the camera is not professional, but handheld.

The actors are selected from the crew, there are only two people, and the rest are not needed.

And these two actors didn't show their faces, and the audience would never recognize who they were after the release?

This movie is not so much a movie as a documentary, or even a personal vlog.

The content of the movie "Area 51" is very simple, it is a record of a person holding a camera in Area 51, the content is very empty, and the whole process is pretending to be a ghost, and there is basically no substance.

What is Area 51, it is a secret military base in the United States, and it is rumored that there are aliens in it.

I don't know if there is one, but Xu Nan thinks they have it, anyway, there are aliens in Area 51 in the movie.

That's right, Xu Nan's movie is about aliens. The details are: A college student who has just become an adult, because he is curious about Area 51, then infiltrates here, finds that there are really aliens, and colludes with the US military to study it.

Then he was killed by aliens, and the camera in his hand was left behind, and he was accidentally discovered and sent to the cinema.

Are you curious about aliens and want to know what they are doing in Area 51, so hurry up and come and see.

That's right, the key to this movie is to make the people of the United States believe that there are aliens in Area 51, collude with the Federation to engage in a conspiracy, arouse their curiosity, and then watch the movie.

If this is in China, it will definitely be useless, but in the United States, it is really useful.

First of all, the story of Area 51 has been circulated in the United States decades ago, and basically everyone has heard it.

Then in the magical land of the United States, the people especially believe in conspiracy theories, and every day a new conspiracy theory is born, and there is a group of people who believe it.

Therefore, the movie "Area 51" is unique in the United States, as long as the publicity is good, I am not afraid that no one will come to see it.

Xu Nan's film was inspired by "Blair the Witch", which was a very rebellious movie that left a strong mark in the history of American cinema.

The director of "Blair the Witch" is a newcomer who has just debuted, and spent 50,000 dollars to make a movie with a handheld camera to find a witch.

This movie can be said to be very, very rubbish, without any merits, and you can't watch it for three minutes.

Because this movie is too spicy, when he went to major film and television companies to promote it, no one could see it, and all of them let him get out.

Frustrated, the director of "Blair the Witch" chose to go to the film festival, hoping to find Bole, watch his own movie, and buy it back for release.

But it's still useless, because no one can watch this movie, because the movie "Blair the Witch" is too spicy to see any advantages, and the buyers of other film and television companies are not fools, how can they buy it.

Until one day, a senior buyer of Yijiang Entertainment saw this movie, because he was in a bad situation at that time and urgently needed a movie to open the results, and felt that he could promote this movie in a special way of publicity, so he decided to buy this movie.

The special way of promotion of the buyers of Artisan Entertainment is fraud.

He first posted a search notice on the Internet, saying that three college students were missing because they were looking for witches, and asked everyone to help find them.

Because the publicity of Yijiang Entertainment is powerful enough, many people are concerned about the disappearance of the three college students after knowing about this incident, and they are extremely concerned about their whereabouts.

Then, there were rumors about witches all over the Internet, because many people had heard stories about witches when they were young, and their curiosity about this matter was aroused.

In the end, Artisan Entertainment released the news that the videotape of the missing college student was found, and curious audiences flocked to the cinema to watch the movie, and "Blair the Witch" exploded at the box office, exceeding $100 million.

The movie shot with 50,000 US dollars finally won more than 100 million at the box office, and "Blair the Witch" has become a typical case of the United States with small and big things.

Xu Nan is going to replicate the miracle created by "Blair the Witch" this time, and he has to do it better.

The legend of the witch is only heard by some people in the United States, but the story of the alien UFO and Area 51 is known to the whole world.

Even Xu Nan, a foreigner, has heard of it, not to mention the anti-intellectual and conspiracy theory Chinese people.

Hidden history, compared to the UFOs of Area 51, it is not a level of stuff at all.

One can imagine what kind of trend this movie will set off when it really starts to be promoted. The filming of the movie went smoothly, and Xu Nan found an abandoned military base as a filming location to make the film as realistic as possible, as if it were real.

Of course, it is impossible to really go anywhere, after all, there are no aliens in this base.

But there are no aliens, and the movie is still made.

Have you watched "Into Science", there is an episode where the roof of a temple has never fallen leaves, and there are other places, but this roof does not.

Why?

In order to find out the answer, the program team filmed two episodes, and experts from all walks of life put forward various hypotheses, and all the Bodhisattvas, Buddhas, and aliens came out, and finally came to the conclusion that it was because the wind blew out the leaves, so there were no fallen leaves on the roof.

It's outrageous.

But there are really a lot of people who eat this set, and they are very worried about it, and they want to know the answer very much.

Walking into the science program group can shoot a very normal thing very outrageous, which makes people love and fear, and of course Xu Nan has no problem.

Although the movie was fake from start to finish, and the box office of the movie was all about publicity, he still tried to do the best.

In this regard, Xu Nan is still very dedicated, although it is likely useless.

After all, this movie mainly relies on publicity, and the content of the movie doesn't matter at all, and even the whole process is black screen.

But Xu Nan has a bottom line and ethics, and he still finished the movie and made it perfect.

From the beginning to the end of the filming of the movie "Area 51", it took only three days in total, setting a new record for Xu Nan to shoot a movie.

But this is not the fastest, the fastest is a Turkish director, who only took a day, and there were no shouts and pauses in the whole process.

After the filming of the movie, Xu Nan had a good meal with the crew members, and then transferred to the post-production of the movie.

From editing, rendering, color matching, and dubbing, Xu Nan operated the whole process by himself.

Because only he knows what it's like to make a movie.

The post-production work is actually quite simple, and soon, a full-length movie is freshly baked.

Well, that's the smell.

Xuanzhi and Xuanzhi, in the clouds and fog, pretending to be a ghost, startled.

At first glance, it looks mysterious, but on closer inspection, there is no actual content at all.

But that's what I want.

This is what college students have seen and heard when they enter Area 51, and they have made videos with their own lives, and you viewers are still not satisfied.

After the filming of the movie is completed, the next focus is on the promotion of the movie.
