Chapter 96: Extraordinary
Dieng said that he could not understand the progress of the incident at all,
Obviously, Tang De wanted to challenge the arrangement of mirror dance, why did he suddenly become the best director of MTV, and why did Bert, a strict producer, support him so much?
In fact, the title of MTV's best director is certainly not enough to get Bert to support Donde, but Cameron's praise cannot be ignored.
The reason for the incident is also very simple, because when a reporter recently asked Cameron about his filming plans, he accidentally mentioned some movies and TV series that he was watching while resting at home.
He also talked about the kids and their recent obsession with Avril's music videos.
Cameron wasn't interested in the MV, but the kids needed company, so he followed suit.
I didn't expect to be a little surprised when I saw this.
Because he thinks the use of color and camera is very good, especially the explosion scene in the last scene, which he likes.
This gave him a lot of inspiration, but when the reporter continued to ask if it was the inspiration for the new movie, Cameron bypassed the topic.
After Penta saw the news, he also went to see Donde's music video, as Cameron said. That's how movies are shot, and even many of the shots and frames are better than the average movie.
Therefore, since there are such people in the crew, of course, they must make good use of it, and the company has extremely high hopes for "Chicago".
Under Belt's remarks, everyone suddenly came over, and only then did they figure out Donde's identity.
It turned out to be the best director of MTV, no wonder both technology and knowledge are far beyond ordinary people.
Generally speaking, winners like Tang De started as an assistant film director, and it is not uncommon for them to directly serve as a small-budget film director.
Unexpectedly, he quietly entered the crew as an assistant photographer, and never showed off his resume!
This can't help but be awe-inspiring.
"Tang De, God, why didn't you say it earlier!" Rob breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that he hadn't seen the wrong person.
"Yes, Don, you're so humble." Colleen defined Donde's behavior, and everyone nodded in agreement.
As for the eyes of the rest of the crew looking at Tang De, the original questioning expression eased, and the stage teacher also changed his words: "Maybe we can consider changing the position of the mirror." ”
"That's right, I think Tang De is right, the choreography of the mirror dance is indeed not as amazing as other scenes."
Maybe it's because Tang De has received the support of the producer and director, and everyone's tone has changed.
But the most crucial factor is still Donde's resume, and Cameron's face, people with achievements will always get more preference than others.
In this way, a storm against Tang De disappeared invisibly, and only Dion next to him was on his back.
“fxxk! Damn it! He scolded a few words in his heart, and then continued to watch everyone discuss the topic of Tang De, and reminded without giving up: "But we only have a few hours left......
"That's right!" Bert thought about the cost again, and his face became nervous again: "Don, you said that you want to change the lens of the mirror dance, do you already have an idea?" We can't afford to delay for too long. ”
"Of course!" Under the puzzled eyes of everyone, Tang De came to the props team to explain, and then sat back in front of the camera and said a few words to Renee.
Then, he clapped his hands: "Okay, let's perform once." Just follow the original dance. ”
"Okay." Renee returns to center stage in a shiny dance costume and puts on a confident look.
"Director, it's time for a test shoot."
"Then let's take their places, or follow the original arrangement, music!"
As soon as Rob finished speaking, music began to play behind the scenes.
Renee immediately jumped up on the stage, constantly weaving through the arranged maze of mirrors, sometimes leaning on the mirrors, sometimes caressing her body.
The various mirrors on the stage are also constantly moving outside the camera, some of which are arranged behind the props to move back and forth as the dance progresses, and some of the mirrors use slings to move in the air.
However, because the surrounding environment is all black and oppressive, it cannot be seen in the lens.
However, when Renee progresses to one line: "My hair, my teeth, my chest, my nose." At that time, everyone under the stage found that the mirror next to her was different from the original rectangular mirror, and was replaced by Tang De with a circle.
And these round mirrors are arranged in combination with Tang De, showing a geometric beauty.
When Renee turned to face the mirror, various parts of her body were immediately reflected in the mirror, which happened to echo the lyrics, which was amazing.
At the end of the test shooting, Rob and the stage teacher watched the clip again, and then the two looked at each other and looked at Tang De again.
"Thank God, I have to admit that it was a great idea." Rob was amazed, and the stage teacher also smiled and gave a thumbs up: "I think I can use this idea on Broadway, Don, thank you for your creativity." ”
When the others saw that the director and the choreographer agreed with Tang De's creativity, they immediately breathed a sigh of relief and smiled.
Seeing this, Bert hurriedly said, "Then let's start filming quickly!" ”
"No problem, Don, it's still you in charge, these shots are better than my established angles." Director Rob relieved himself to hand over the job of photographer to Tang De.
The stage designer also called the actor over: "Renee, the dance needs to be modified a little, come." ”
It didn't take long for the scene to officially start filming.
The psychedelic mirror maze, the messy but beautiful round mirror, the narcissistic dance, and the huge neon sign, a dance scene took two hours to shoot before it was finally completed.
When the director announced that it was approved, everyone applauded vigorously, both for Renee's wonderful and powerful dance, and for everyone's own efforts.
At this time, a week has passed since Tang Dejin's group, and they have completed all the scenes except prison.
After that, they will take a day off and then go to the prison to shoot the rest of the scenes.
Tang De finally had time to breathe a sigh of relief, and after he returned to the hotel, he talked to Jimmy on the phone and learned about the company's situation in the past few days.
"Donde, there's something wrong with Heinz." On the phone, Jimmy's voice was a little serious.
"What's wrong?"
"Someone copied our idea and it sold out recently......" Jimmy explained for Donde.
It turns out that there is a competitor of Heinz on the market recently, whose name is Deshi. The products they make are also a variety of sauces, which coincide with Heinz's product range.
Originally, it was nothing, after all, Heinz had more than one opponent, but they plagiarized the most creative three-stage advertisement, and perfected it into a funny video.
After the video of this funny advertisement was played, it immediately aroused a strong reaction from various customers, and everyone laughed and bought all the De's sauce in the supermarket.
As a result, the sales of other companies' products have plummeted, which is of course intolerable for Heinz and other sauce companies, so everyone has been looking for advertising companies to urgently produce videos in the past two days.
When Don learned about this, he pondered for a moment and said to Jimmy, "Henry should be in a hurry now. ”
"That's right, after all, in the advertising market, every minute counts as money. He needs us to produce a funny ad video in three days, and if we don't meet the requirements, it could affect our contract agreement for next year. ”
Even if Henry has invested in Supreme Idea, it is still not his most important company, and the Heinz Group is his home base, and of course he will not lose a big thing.
The interests of capital are always ruthless, which Tang De had expected, so he arranged: "Jimmy, you go to Carl now to contact the crew and venue, and if you are the director, I will give you a name." Remember, don't want anyone else, just look for her. Then I'll send you the script later today, too. ”
"Okay, no problem...... But is it really possible in such a short period of time? "Don wasn't there, and Jimmy always felt a little unsafe.
"It's okay, just trust my vision." After Tang De arranged it, he wrote the shooting script directly in the notebook.
As for whether it will pass Heinz's review?
Just kidding, this is a spoof ad they're going to make in the future, and it's very much in line with the ketchup product itself, both creatively and in form.
Although this film is not out of, the American people love this, don't they?
After the script was written, it was already evening, and after faxing the script to Jimmy, Don De explained to him about the actors and precautions, and told him to call him if he encountered any problems on the spot.
After getting Jimmy's promise, Donde receives another call from Kane.
He had come to report to Don De on the progress of the Angel Declaration during this time.
Kayden has successfully won the invitation to Victoria's Secret, but Cindy unfortunately failed because she is still a little worse than Kayden.
But she and Lilina weren't without success, as they had recently been invited by Fox to record a TV show called Bikini Destination.
Tang De knew this, because after the broadcast of this TV show, it received a very enthusiastic response from the audience, and in 2005, a photo album called Bikini Destination: Triple Fantasy was released.
It's not bad for Cindy and Lilina to be part of this show, at least in the United States, it's an instant hit.
Don De was very satisfied with Kane's work and encouraged him, and as for the reward, it depends on what kind of answer he can hand in at the end of the year.
Regarding this kind of capital painting trick, Tang De said that he is not unfamiliar with using it.
After settling the company's affairs, Tang De planned to take a shower and fall asleep after eating.
As a result, the text message "Didi" rang, and it was Anne Hathaway, who she hadn't seen for a long time, who had sent a message.
"I heard you're in Chicago?"
"How do you know?" Tang De was a little puzzled.
"Oh, maybe it's because my friend is on the set? And she talked to me about someone today? ”
"Hahaha, that's a coincidence, so you're in Chicago too?"
"I'm going to dinner, are you free?"
"Of course."
It was naturally impossible for the beautiful woman to meet Tang De, so she changed her clothes and immediately rushed to the restaurant where she was.
