Movie Master

Hayden was joking.

This is Lance's first reaction. Hayden always likes to joke, even jokes about Theo. He is definitely a typical representative of fearlessness. Lance narrowed his eyes slightly, carefully observing the changes in Hayden's expression, trying to see the real intention behind this innocent smiling face.

Hayden got a little hairy from Lance's gaze, he laughed dryly, with a pure expression on his face, "I mean it, we have discussed it countless times before, if you have the chance, you also want to be a Director, shoot the movie according to your ideas, and then I will be your photographer and your eyes to record and interpret the stories in your mind. Don't you remember?"

Lance was unmoved at all. What Hayden said was the truth, they had indeed discussed this matter, and those words were indeed what he said; but Lance knew that Hayden raised such conditions without thinking, it must not be because of this reason .

Lance stood there without saying a word, motionless, his eyes full of scrutiny were hidden behind thick eyelashes, like a bottomless dark blue, deep and mysterious, but also full of danger. Hayden was powerless to resist. In just ten seconds, he raised his hands to express his surrender, "Very good, you won. It's the same move every time, and there are no new tricks."

Lance remained silent but smiled.

Hayden rolled his eyes and strongly expressed his dissatisfaction. Even though Lance never changed his style, he was the one who lost every time. "I was going to resign anyway..." After saying a word, he Seeing the satisfied smile on Lance's face, Hayden gritted his teeth speechlessly, "There is no sense of accomplishment in filming a TV series, not to mention that the photographers follow the rules and there is nothing new; There is no technical content in the requirements, and I think college students are sufficient. Even if it is not you, I will hand in my resignation letter in a few days."

Lance didn't intend to refute, but just stood there and nodded his head slightly, as if to say, "Just be happy", which made Hayden's teeth itch with hatred, but he had no choice but to threaten Lance viciously. , "It's better to be an excellent work!" Lance nodded his chin generously and dealt with it perfunctorily. Hayden suddenly calmed down like a punctured balloon.

"Hayden, let me introduce you. This is Albert, who will be our crew's director;" Lance turned around, led Hayden to the corner, and gave a brief introduction to the two of them, " Albert, this is Hayden, and we're going to him for the camera and lighting."

Both of them seemed a little reserved, and after a simple exchange of greetings, the atmosphere froze for a while, and both of them cast their eyes on Lance for help at the same time. But Lance didn't intend to make a rescue at all, and stood by with an expression of confusion, watching "embarrassed".

Hayden could clearly catch the look of gloating in Lance's calm lake-like eyes, and gritted his teeth secretly, "Lance, I was serious just now, don't you think that it's a good idea for you to be in charge of the guide tube of this work?" Is it a great idea?" After speaking, Hayden gave Albert a look, secretly praying that Albert could understand his code. "You see, you wrote the script yourself, you decided to shoulder the responsibility of the producer, and our entire crew was formed by you. Your understanding of this story and this movie is beyond the reach of others. .”

Albert and Hayden were unfamiliar—this was the first time the two met, but he understood Hayden's eyes, and more importantly, Hayden's words aroused his resonance, "Yes, Lance, why don’t you have this idea? I remember when you were in school, you always had countless ideas about the position of director. You can express your own unique perspective and ideas in almost every work, injecting different ideas into the film. vitality. I always thought that you established Diorama Films just to realize your dream of being a director.”

When Hayden spoke, Lance knew that he was deliberately changing the topic and focus, so he didn't take it seriously. However, Albert's words silenced him.

Of course he didn't forget that the script drafts of "Good Night, Good Luck" and "City of God" all included the storyboards drawn by himself. Although they are very rough, it can be seen that in the process of writing the script , He always examines these stories from the perspective of the director. The director's dream, this is indeed his original intention to establish Diorama Films.

In fact, this is the dream of the two souls of Li Jin and Lancelot. To be precise, the actor is Li Jin's dream, the director is Strelo's dream, and the movie is the dream of both of them.

Lance wants to be a director, a director who can tell stories, a director who can convey ideas through pictures, and a director who can share emotions with the audience through the camera. The ups and downs of life are all condensed in that one screen, what a magical thing it is; dramas, comedies, horror films, science fiction films, cartoons, romance films, action films... Countless films can entertain the public , won tens of millions of box office; it can also wake up the public and release a profound aftertaste, and the director standing behind the camera lens controls the entire condensed world, what a miraculous thing.

Li Jin wants to become an actor, an actor who can show life, an actor who can penetrate into the soul through performance, an actor who can experience different lives and show different emotions through performance. Traveling through the lives of different characters, experiencing completely different emotions, feeling different emotions, showing the shock of soul resonance, and experiencing all kinds of human states, this is an experience that can't be imagined in a lifetime.

In his last life, he realized these two dreams in New York. He served as the director of many off-Broadway plays, and achieved good response; he also became an off-Broadway actor, and even In his spare time, he worked as an acting teacher; later, he also tried to shoot two documentaries recording life in New York.

However, the betrayal of the close friends killed the meaning of the dream with their own hands. They taught Lance the cruelty and bloodiness of reality, they also taught Lance the ruthlessness and coldness of life, and they also taught Lance the emptiness and paleness of dreams.

Although Hayden was changing the subject, it was definitely not aimless. Now he put away his playful thoughts and said seriously, "Didn't you also direct a play when you were studying at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art?" Is it Shakespeare?"

"No, it was 'Death of a Salesman.'" That distant memory was so vivid in my mind that the answer came out almost without thinking.

Hayden nodded, "Yes, you not only acted as the director, but also as the leading actor. The three professors who watched the performance gave a standing ovation! This is not a trivial matter." Hayden's mood became more and more serious. He became more and more excited, as if he had seen the figure of Lance standing behind the monitor, "In my opinion, otherwise, this work is written, directed and acted by yourself, just like Charles-Chaplin (Charles-Chaplin) ) or Laurence-Olivier."

"So I'm British?" Lance's response made Hayden choke immediately, before he finished speaking, the next sentence was more impactful, "But I think the actor should forget it, in this work All the characters are black."

Now even Albert choked, "Lance, are you crazy?" Although Lance told him just now that the movie will be filmed in Rio de Janeiro, all the actors in the crew are black, which is completely different one thing. Such works have almost no room for survival in the United States, and it can be said to be a suicide move.

Lance shrugged and looked at Albert calmly, "You're already on board."

Hayden didn't know the specific situation of "City of God", so he was not as shocked as Albert. "Come back, come back," he snapped his fingers, "The focus of our discussion now is that you can be the director of this movie." The director of the movie? Isn't he?"

Lance's eyes widened, and he let out a long breath. He didn't deny it, but he didn't nod directly, "The filming of this work is very difficult. It requires the director to control the overall situation, control the rhythm, control the characters and the story, They have their own unique ideas about the scale of core mining and the understanding of movies.”

"Yes, you know. So what?" Hayden's words successfully silenced Lance, "I'm serious, you want me to be the cameraman for this work, you want me to be able to provide This film injects bright colors, so the director is absolutely crucial, and now who can know more clearly than you what this film needs?"

Indeed, Lance knows all these elements, and the accumulation of 13 years of experience in his previous life has also given him his own understanding of directors, screenwriters, actors, producers, etc., not to mention his understanding of the historical trajectory. "City of God" is still fresh in my memory.

Lance completed the adaptation of the script according to his own understanding. During the whole script adaptation process, he had already started to conceive the switching and combination of all the shots in his mind, and at the same time, he was also conceiving the selection of actors and the allocation of editing. Perhaps, he can give this work more content and meaning according to his own understanding, not only as a producer, but also as a director, and personally polish it into a sharp blade of revenge!

Hayden looked at Lance who was a little dazed, shook his head, and patted Lance's shoulder lightly, "Are you hesitating? Or are you afraid?" The smile on Hayden's mouth was slightly joking, UU Reading www. uukanshu. com "This is definitely big news!"

Lance chuckled lightly, but the shallow smile permeated his eyes, "What are you still hesitating about? What you see now is the screenwriter and producer of 'City of God'...and director, this is your boss It is." This is the first step in revenge. As for the dream, that thing has been left with faith at the funeral of Karel Reitz. This road full of thorns, he has no chance to turn back, and he does not intend to turn back.

Albert laughed and applauded, and Hayden even jumped up and down on the spot, expressing his inner joy and excitement unabashedly, "This is what we are discussing! This is what he/mother is discussing! "

Lance felt that his blood began to sprint so fast that his fingertips trembled slightly. It was not nervous but excited. The burst of adrenaline brightened the whole world. The sense of anticipation was like the Fourth of July Like a firework party, energy is released from every corner of his body. Lance knew that he had taken a crucial step!

Missed Fernando Merrills, went round and round in the director's selection, but in the end Lance himself took over the guide tube. The wheel of history has been changing silently, and no one knows where the huge wheel will crush. However, Lance held the reins tightly in his hands, and his fate would be in his own hands!
