There are many luxury hotels near North Hollywood, and Ryan picked one at random and parked his car in front of the hotel.

Cindy Crawford glanced at her assistant, showed a hint of hesitation, and said, "Ryan, do you have time tomorrow!"

"Can you accompany me to meet the property manager?"

"You know, I don't have any acquaintances here. ”

Originally, these things were supposed to be done by the assistant, but unfortunately her assistant was not familiar with Los Angeles.

"I'm afraid I don't have time during the day. Ryan said.

"Invasion of Evil Spirits" has entered the filming stage, and it is impossible for Ryan to leave the crew at will.

Even if the film was an investment in Twentieth Century Fox, he couldn't have been, "Still, I can introduce you to a real estate manager I know." ”

Generally, Hollywood stars have their own familiar property managers, mainly to avoid business pitfalls.

Cindy Crawford breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Can you write down his contact information!"

"No problem. Ryan readily agreed, took out a pen and paper, and wrote down the contact information of the real estate manager.

In fact, this real estate manager was introduced to him by Helen, and he is quite reliable.

Cindy Crawford put away the contact information of the real estate manager, and did not choose to give it to the assistant, saying: "There is a small party for the "Fair Game" crew tomorrow night, if you have time, you can come together!"

"Joel Silver is a bit tough, I've just gotten divorced and don't want any negative press. ”

It's not news that a Hollywood producer has a leg with an actress.

However, Cindy Crawford has just signed a divorce agreement and is joining the crew for the first time to shoot, so she always has to keep her best side.

At the same time, I don't want to offend Joel Silver, after all, he is the producer of the crew.

Shield!

Ryan gladly accepted the identity of the shield and said, "If time permits, I will definitely rush over." ”

This time he did not refuse, the filming of the crew went smoothly in advance, and he did not have to work overtime at night.

As for the fact that the Hollywood crew did not work overtime!

What are you kidding, how could it not be, otherwise the crew would be filled with a large number of non-guild members.

Next, Cindy Crawford got out of the car with her assistant and walked into the hotel gate, without inviting Ryan up.

Cindy Crawford opened a suite, asked the doorman to help bring the salute into the room, and talked to the assistant without resting.

"Luna, do you think I should choose CAA or change agency!" asked Cindy Crawford.

CAA is undoubtedly one of the largest agencies in Hollywood, with a wide range of businesses, including singers, players, models, and so on, in addition to some well-known Hollywood movie stars.

Luna said honestly: "At least for now, CAA is a good choice. ”

"As for the future, it is completely possible to change to a brokerage company. ”

Whether it's Hollywood or modeling, it's not uncommon to change agencies.

Even for many big-name celebrities and supermodels, as long as they have this plan, they can kick their agents and brokerage companies away at any time.

"Let's meet first. Cindy Crawford was a little hesitant.

CAA is a good choice, but CAA is also very strong, and while you can get the opportunity, you must accept the mercy of CAA.

Early the next morning, Ryan, as usual, drove to the set.

The only difference is that in the spare time of shooting, you need to meet the people of ILM.

"Jack, what I need is a swarm of moths, gray, real moths, not a colorful scene. Ryan pointed to the screen playing in front of him as he kept talking about his needs.

There is no sound on the screen, just a shot of Scarlett Johansson sitting alone on the bed, the characters are very single, and they have just been edited together.

However, Jack Danny took it very seriously and began to calculate how to make special effects.

Special effects production is far from being as simple as people imagine, maybe its technology is not very advanced, but it can achieve unexpected results.

ILM's philosophy, "Cinema is more important than technology".

At the end of the footage, which was played in less than a minute, Jack Danny pondered for a moment and said, "There is nothing difficult in making a swarm of moths. ”

"However, I am afraid it will take a little time to achieve the effect you said. ”

Often, the simpler things are, the harder they are to make, and Ryan doesn't want a single moth, but a dense swarm that flutters around the room.

Jack Danny is just an ordinary member of the industrial magic light, not some technical maniac, and there are some key things that need to be discussed with others.

"Invasion of Evil Spirits" requires very few special effects scenes, and it is impossible for ILM to send a large number of personnel.

"There was a lot of time on it. ”

After a brief conversation, Ryan continued: "I want the scene to be natural, the color is mainly gray and light green, not rich color, try to be single, and it is best to look like it, so that people feel numb on the scalp." ”

Jack Danny recorded carefully, but he knew that the relationship between the director in front of him and his boss George Lucas was very unusual.

"As for the evil spirit scenario, it's relatively simple. Ryan showed helplessness and said, "After all, the crew has a limited budget. ”

Special effects pictures often cost you a penny, such as "Jurassic Park", as long as the price is in place, industrial magic light can bring any kind of creature to life, including aliens.

Fortunately, Ryan had been exposed to special effects production in his previous life and knew how to save money.

That is, to shorten the special effects screen as much as possible.

The reason is very simple, most of the special effects production costs are calculated by the second, and the shorter the time, the more you can save some costs.

"Director Ryan!"

"I needed to look at the script and the storyboards to get a better understanding of the special effects needed for this scene. Jack Denny said.

"Yes. Ryan directly agreed, and said, "I'll have someone send it to you later." ”

Whether it's special effects or soundtracks, you need to understand the content of the film.

Next, he needs to meet with Skywalker's sound personnel to discuss the soundtrack of the film, choose the right singer, and so on.

If it is said that in the production of special effects of industrial light and magic, no company in Hollywood can replace it, even in the digital field, it cannot replace industrial light and magic.

Then Skywalker Sound is much worse, whether it is Disney, Warner Bros., or Twentieth Century Fox's sound company, it is only stronger than Skywalker Sound.

But Ryan, as the producer and director of the crew, finally chose Skywalker Sound, a subsidiary of Lucasfilm.

Sophia sent a message saying that it was a litmus test and wanted the members of the Mickey Mouse Club to sing the theme song of the film. Ray Sancheni came over and brought him some surprise.

Mickey Mouse Club!

Ryan's first thought was Britney Spears, the most representative female singer in the nineties in North America, and by now, she should have joined the Mickey Mouse Club.

If it were 2000, it would be a very good opportunity to choose Britney Spears to sing the theme song and soundtrack of the film.

It's a pity that Britney Spears is too small now.

"You can promise to come down. ”

By the way, let Sophia ask Swift if little Taylor likes to study music, and if the little one likes it, you can take the opportunity to recommend her to Disney for training. Ryan thought for a moment and chose as a quid pro quo.

Disney was clearly a better choice than moving the family to Nashville to study music.

Of course, it's also nice to go to Nashville to study country music.

"I'll tell Sophia. Ray Sancheni was a little surprised, as if Ryan cared deeply about the little girl named Little Taylor.
