2283 The fox pretends to be the tiger's power
Tacit understanding can indeed create more possibilities during the performance, and the collision of chemical reactions can often inspire more sparks of creative inspiration..
Renly and Felicity are like this. In the process of communicating with each other, adjusting to each other, they can always find wonderful sparks in those trivial details, a look, a back, a move, a pause... ..Then the overall performance gradually becomes fuller and more vivid..
The shooting work is still not easy. The camera position, lighting position, panoramic layout, etc. all need to be adjusted synchronously according to the actors' performances; but the shooting atmosphere is obviously more focused and efficient, and this is true for all the staff.——
In the previous shooting, mistakes were made, retakes were made, and pauses were made, but no one knew what was happening or how to adjust to get on the right track. It was like a headless fly being suffocated in a glass jar and bumping left and right. Besides being boring, it’s still boring, and that kind of frustration makes it impossible to get excited..
During the current shooting, all the work has become clear. You can feel that everyone is working hard in the same direction, making progress bit by bit, and getting closer to the goal step by step. The sense of accomplishment is irreplaceable, and it is easy to let go. Concentrate and devote yourself to your work.
The situation is different after all.
The first scene still didn't end quickly. Garris was looking for arrangements and combinations of different angles and different depths of field, hoping to set the tone for the entire film's frame. On the one hand, he verified his shooting concept, and on the other hand, he made fine adjustments according to the actors, and determined Find the best presentation solution.
Back and forth, the first scene was shot twenty-nine times before the final decision was made and the work on the first day and the first scene of "Rogue One" was finally completed..
When Garris officially announced that the first scene was "completed", the entire crew cheered. Obviously, no one expected that the first scene would be so difficult; regardless of whether this meant that the subsequent filming would also be a difficult one. A tough battle, but at least the work on the first scene is over.
It's not just the staff who are feeling the pressure.
Rumor has it that after all the filming on the first day, executive producer Jason McGatlin made a special trip to find Garris and expressed his concerns about the difficulty, schedule and budget of the crew - the first scene was definitely not the best. It’s a difficult scene, but if the first scene is like this and the subsequent shooting continues in this style, it will definitely be a disaster for the crew, especially in terms of budget..
Not only that, Jason also specifically mentioned Renly: It may be okay to shoot artistic films, but it is not a good thing to shoot commercial films because the actors will be under great pressure to perform. Doubling the number, the performance process will become increasingly difficult.
No one is sure how the rumor spread. Many of the original words have been distorted and tampered with from word of mouth. However, some people swore that "Renly won't like it." These were Jason's original words. It became a deadly weapon to suppress Garris and brought an end to the conversation..
No one dares to offend Renly.
Maybe Renly is approachable, maybe Renly is kind to others, maybe Renly is funny, maybe Renly doesn't care about gossip, maybe those things have no impact at all... But the reality is that no one wants to offend Renly , even if it is just a potential possibility.
Gareth Edwards naturally understands this clearly.
According to rumors, someone witnessed Garris standing at the door of the room and smoking three cigarettes after sending Jason out of the room. He stayed alone outside for a long time and left the crew members waiting in the room for the meeting. There - and the room was extremely quiet.
Everyone knows that large-scale film crews are often prone to conflicts, especially branded commercial films such as the Marvel series or the Star Wars series, because the producer has power over the director. During the work of the crew, the producer's coercion Interference can easily lead to many unpredictable conflicts, and directors who lack the right to speak can easily have differences with actors, ultimately forming a vicious cycle that is difficult to reconcile..
This is also one of the biggest worries of the "Rogue One" crew before starting production. What's more, in addition to the producers and directors, there is also Renly who is truly above everyone - even Catherine - Kennedy was in front of Renly, the two of them were fighting and didn't know what would happen..
But few people could have expected that conflicts would break out on the first day. For the crowd, this was absolutely exciting; however, for the crew members, it was the beginning of disaster. Then, What will happen next? Even if you don't have to take sides - in fact, taking sides is easier. Everyone chooses to stand behind Renly, which solves all problems, but the atmosphere on the set will be very scary..
No one wants a work environment that's on thin ice.
Tit- for-tat confrontations between producers and directors are already commonplace in Hollywood, and there are countless development possibilities in the future; but more often than not, they end up with the director's compromise, which is the simplest and fastest solution - this is The reason why the Marvel series favors second- and even third-tier directors is also the reason why Kathleen Kennedy still chose Garris as director after going around in circles..
So, how will Garris choose?？
After finishing three cigarettes, Garris turned around and returned to the room to continue the crew meeting. The meeting went very smoothly and without any disturbance. The same was true for that night: Garris' silence and calmness seemed to have accepted the reality and did not make any Resistance and response.
Those people who were looking forward to something happening could only be disappointed: such a exciting beginning ended in such a boring way..
But that's not the end of the story, obviously.
The next morning, before officially starting filming, Garris went to Renly's personal lounge alone. The two of them stayed in the lounge for less than five minutes, and then Garris left. After a while, Lanly The ceremony is now ready and we officially get into work..
Originally, this was nothing at all. The director had a conversation with the actors before the official start of filming, discussed the scenes and scenes, and planned ahead for the day's work. This was basically the normal daily work process of the crew, so Garris's actions did not cause any trouble on the crew. any attention.
However, a few people who were interested noticed that while the filming was in full swing that day, Renly's manager Roy Lockley and Jason McGatlin left the set and communicated privately for a period of time - this did not seem to be a big deal. , and there was no movement after that..
However, the rumors resurfaced again.
Before the filming began, Garris went directly to Renly and asked him face to face whether Renly was dissatisfied with the first day of work and whether their working model needed to be changed..
Such reckless behavior caused a cry of exclamation from word of mouth. If the rumors are true, then does Garris have any brains?？
Is his action threatening Jason and telling the producer to shut up? Or is he forcing Renly and embarrassing Renly? Even if Renly really said those words through Jason, facing Garris at this time Even if Renly was questioned in person, it would be impossible for Renly to admit it, and it would be impossible for him to damage his image. No matter what the result is, Garris will be like Zhu Bajie looking in the mirror, not a human inside and out, offending the producer and offending the big actor..
But it is obvious that the melon-eaters are not Renly, and they do not understand Renly either..
“Haha, you should ask if I am a two-faced person, doing one thing in front of you and another behind my back. This is more direct, but I may also be more flustered and expose my flaws..”
According to rumors, these are Renly's exact words - because Renly's stylist and hairstylist were present at the time, but how credible the rumors are is a matter of opinion..
Obviously, Renly did not get angry as expected. Instead, he had a serious and in-depth discussion with Garris, and then comforted and encouraged Garris, expressing his support for Garris to continue filming at his own rhythm and pace, and finally produced a film that met the requirements of the film. Garris Anticipated Works.
“But I must emphasize that budget control is very important. I don't care, but you need to know what you are doing." This is Renly's only explanation to Gareth - don't forget, Renly is also "Rogue One" ” producer who also understands the importance of budget control.
After Garris ended the conversation, he left the lounge in a happy mood, and the rest of the day's work went smoothly without any negative impact; not long after, Roy found Jason, and the two started talking in private about No one knows the content of the secret conversation between them, but what is certain is that there will be no more disturbances in the follow-up, and the small twists and turns seem to have disappeared without a trace..
It is conceivable that Renly definitely doesn’t like someone using his own name behind his back, especially after experiencing the internal strife in “Interstellar”; at the same time, Jason definitely doesn’t like Renly interfering in the management of producers. , especially budget control work, but the game between the two parties is not that simple..
This is not a problem that can be solved by "east wind prevailing over west wind". It requires both parties to compromise with each other and find a comfortable area that both parties can accept to ensure that the film crew can operate smoothly. "Rogue One" is real key.
What if the negotiation for cooperation is unsuccessful? Then it is very likely that it will be a tragic situation where the two parties broke up. "Future Water World" is the best negative case; and the later "Solo" in 2018 was another bloody tragedy. The ending is that both sides lose..
However, judging from the current situation of "Rogue One", Roy and Jason should have reached a consensus and there is no split for the time being. As for whether Jason will bow his head and compromise, or Roy will settle the matter, it is unknown. Except for the two Apart from the person involved, other people who eat melon have no way of knowing..
The only clue is that after the meeting with Roy, Jason made a call to Kathleen Kennedy. The call lasted for five minutes. That's all..
