Chapter 7 Party A is the largest
When Dudley heard this, he immediately went to work and began to direct Scarlett's movements: "Pizza, to the left, oh, not to let you go to the left, but to turn the pizza a little bit." ”
"Further to the right, oh, it's not the pizza turning, it's your body! Expose your denim! ”
Don De and Jimmy were watching from the sidelines, and today they were shooting a short film in addition to outdoor advertising, and now they are shooting a short film, but it is not going well.
That Mr. Monagan struggled for a long time over some small details, and also rudely interrupted the shooting several times, so angry that Apollion couldn't help but scratch his head with both hands, as if he wanted to tear off the already small hair.
The two argued back and forth several times, but in the end, Apollion conceded defeat, not only because Monagan was Party A, but also because he really couldn't think of any good ideas.
From his habit of never shouting to stop every time he shouts, Tang De can see that this director doesn't know anything about advertising at all, and he doesn't even know so much about shooting.
So he couldn't help but ask Jimmy: "Tell me the truth, how the hell did this director join Martin. Scorsese crew? ”
Jimmy was also a little embarrassed, so he could only reveal the truth: "Well, you know, the assistant director is just a title, he was actually in charge of logistics. ”
"Okay, I see." Tang De looked helpless, and he knew that he shouldn't expect anything from his good brother.
The commercial was shot intermittently for three hours, and Monagan finally got through.
After eating the pizza for lunch, everyone entered the shooting of outdoor advertisements.
I thought that the most difficult time was over, but I never thought that Mr. Monagan would be stricter!
"No, pizza shouldn't be on top of your head! It's ugly! ”
"You say contrast with the sun? No, it's not fun enough! I want big, you know! Big visible to the naked eye! ”
"In addition to being big, I also want to embody fast! Now it's only big, that's not right! ”
"Delivering pizza on horseback? Damn, how can you come up with such a rubbish idea? ”
"In addition to being big and fast, but also drawing! How can pizza not be brushed to make people appetizing! ”
"It's terrible, this ad is terrible, Apollion, if you shoot like that, I think I'll have to stop shooting!"
Monagan kept babbling on and on to output his opinions, which made everyone's scalps tingle, and by six o'clock in the evening, the commercial had not yet been filmed.
Everyone was a little tired, and Don and Jimmy set up the lights back and forth many times, but they were also tired.
Scarlett simply sat on the ground and watched Apollion and Mr. Monagan discuss it violently.
"Mr. Monagan, what kind of idea do you want?"
"What I want is simple! To highlight the large portions of our products, deliver them quickly, and be able to draw the wire to make the audience look appetizing! But the current advertising creative can't convince me at all, and even I don't approve of it, how can you expect those guests who drive by to approve of it! ”
"Okay, then I'll try again." Apollion kept wiping his sweat with a handkerchief, as if the air was already burning.
But Mr. Monagan didn't intend to let him continue to try, and directly put down the cruel words: "Apollion, that's the end of today!" Tomorrow, I'll give you one more day, just one day! If you can't shoot the idea I want tomorrow, fuck off! Got it! ”
"Understood, understood."
When the grumpy old man left with his hands behind his back, Apollion slammed his felt hat to the ground: "Damn it! Big and fast! And fucking brushed! FXXKYOU! ”
"It's over! Today's shooting is over! He scratched his hair in distress and announced that today's shooting was over.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and began to pack up their equipment.
Scarlett tilted her head slightly, glanced at Donde, who was carrying the lights, and then got up and walked to her agent.
When the figures of the two men disappeared from the doorway, Apollion and the young girl beside him half-pushed into the dressing room next to them.
After about three or four minutes, the old man came out of the dressing room with his belt in hand, while the young girl walked out of the studio with a frown.
"Jimmy!" Apollion, looking a little decadent and irritated, beckoned Jimmy over.
Jimmy brought Dondra over again, and the two of them came to the director's side.
"Drink with me at night!"
"No problem!" Jimmy nodded decisively, and then patted Don De on the shoulder: "This is my good brother, Don De." ”
"Donde?" Apollion glanced Donde up and down, shrugged his shoulders and looked indifferent: "Then together, I have to drink hard today, damn Domino's." ”
"Damn Domino's." Jimmy chimed in, and the two of them looked at Don in unison.
"Domino's by FXXK." Donde's tone drew Apollion's happy laughter: "yes, you're right! ”
After getting acquainted with the director a little, Jimmy and Donde continued to carry the equipment.
It wasn't until after eating at eight o'clock in the evening that Apollion called to tell Jimmy's where it was.
Jimmy hurriedly arrived with Donde, and by this time, the atmosphere in the bar had already begun to get stronger.
"Take it off! Take off! Take off! ”
Many of the men who got off work were throwing themselves in front of the stripper's bar, surrounded by cigarette butts, flicking the bills in their hands, sniffing cheap perfumes, and excitedly trying to get the strippers to take off a few more.
Jimmy and Donde made their way through the crowd and headed for the private room.
To be honest, it was the first time Tang De had seen this kind of scene in his life, accompanied by rhythmic music and flashing colored lights, and it was really a bit of an illusion of drunkenness.
But unlike the impression in the past, the stripper's face here is hidden in a thick shadow, and although the movements are wide open and closed, there is basically no inappropriate content for children.
In the United States, strippers are a very formal profession, and clubs involved in strip shows are strictly registered. Those on a larger scale generally only exist in high-end consumption places with a membership system.
And if you want to experience more exciting content here, you have to pay five dollars to experience a song in a single curtain, just like the paid DLC in a single-player game.
However, Tang De was not interested in this, he wanted to see Scarlett gently dance his soft waist in front of him, so that would make him feel a sense of accomplishment.
When I came to the private room, I opened the door and saw the smoke and fog inside, and at the same time, there was the laughter and dice of men and women.
When I looked closely, Apollion, Dudley and the others were toasting on the sofa in the company of the girl.
Seeing Jimmy and Donde arriving, the old man immediately picked up the bottle and poured them a glass of wine himself.
"Come, drink!" Apollion and Jimmy clinked glasses, and then touched Donde, their faces flushed, as if they were already drunk.
After a toast, several people drank again.
When everyone was a little drunk, Apollion seemed to remember the daytime shooting, and suddenly scolded: "Domino's of shit, Monagan of FXXK." Let me lose face in front of the girl! ”
Don raised an eyebrow, he was probably talking about the young girl, it seemed that Apollion had wanted to take it down, but now it was the boiled duck that flew.
"So you guys have any ideas? Any idea will do! I've got to shut up that old man! If we drag on like this, the advertisement will be yellow, and our reputation in the industry will be over! ”
Apollion picked up a cigarette and looked around.
But everyone bowed their heads and looked silent, not at all as bold as when they drank.
Except for Donde, because a classic case suddenly came to his mind.
One of the top 10 classic pizza ads in the United States, it comes from a pizza ad of a niche brand.
It was a perfect score for creativity, using two different elements to successfully showcase the brand's strengths.
Although it is not exactly the same as the requirements of Domino's board, Tang De can rely on his own ideas to re-change it to meet Domino's publicity needs.
So he touched Jimmy with his knee, and Jimmy looked at him with a frown, and when the two looked at each other, he quickly understood what Don De meant.
The corners of Jimmy's eyes were raised, and he looked at his good brother in disbelief, and made a mouth shape with his mouth.
"Are you really?"
Don nodded, of course it's true, he can help Apollion get this advertisement!
Let that grumpy old man of Monagan have nothing to say.
