Chapter 10 Dancing Beauties and Exploiting Movie Tycoons
"Chris Soma, and Marla Rosenfeld."
Wu pointed to Xiana, and raised her hand to invite two students to perform as a group.
It was indeed a sex bomb, Ronald exclaimed.In the group performances of the crew, is there such a beautiful woman with such a strong figure?
Kris has blond wavy hair and green eyes.Mara has shawl-blond hair and blue eyes.The figure is very good.
There is no problem with the image, "how are they dancing?"
Wuzhi Xiana turned on the portable tape recorder, and a burst of familiar music streamed out.
"I'm electrified
This current is accumulating
i'm losing control
because you phoned me
I was "shocked" by your eyes
......"
It's the theme song from the hit movie "Grease": "You're the one I want".
The two beauties danced very hard, with long hair flying up and down, very powerful dance moves, matched to the beat, making people want to dance together.
Chrissy and Marla, one on the left and the other on the right, hooked Ronald's arms and pulled him into the dance.
The smell of shampoo from the beauty's hair rushed into Ronald's brain, mixed with the feeling from his arm, Ronald couldn't help jumping up too.He imitated John Travolta, the hero of "Grease", and performed a 360-degree rotation, and Chris and Mara applauded beside him.
Seeing that the people next to him were all looking over, Ronald gestured to stop, and said to Siana Wuzhi, "Okay, I will give them a separate shot."
The dancing finger Xiana is very happy. If the suggestion is adopted, there is a high probability that the dance will be outstanding. She can also add a line to her resume to add points.
The image in the dream that Ronald can copy has already been filmed.Now I can only humbly listen to the advice of the crew professionals.As long as this suggestion makes him think it is feasible, he will adopt it.If it is adopted, everyone will be happy, and when they are happy, they will shoot quickly.
"Thank you, Ronald, thank you." The eyes of the two beauties lit up, and they grabbed Ronald's arms from left to right, thanking him.
"Hohohoho..." Ronald grinned happily, the salary of being a director is really good.
"You should thank Siana, she recommended you and said that your dance moves are very photogenic."
Ronald knew he was just a temporary substitute.As soon as the boss arrives, he will return to his daily work - making coffee.I didn't talk too much with the beauties, and turned around to discuss the scene with the director of photography.
"Oh, Ciana, what moves will I do? How many shots will I have?" "Siana, you see I did ballet when I was a kid."
When Ronald heard the cheering voices of the beauties behind him, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, the movie is really a fascinating industry, so many handsome men and women are willing to put in a lot of effort in exchange for a chance to appear on camera.
……
Two beauties, Chris and Mara, came out after changing their clothes.Ronald's eyes lit up, Chris was wearing a yellow tube top, and Mara was wearing a red strappy T-shirt.
"Action!"
There is no live radio for this scene, because the music to be played has not yet been determined, and it will be dubbed later.The recording team still played "You are the one I want"
"You'd better be ready,
Because I need a reliable man.
My heart is bound to you,
you better understand
You must be true to me,
you must love me unreservedly
......"
The two beauties twisted up without any effort, and the camera stared at them for a close-up shot of their upper body.
"Cut!"
"This one is over, the extras will rest for 10 minutes, and the props team will start preparing..."
But this time everyone did not listen to Ronald's order to disband.Instead, they looked at Ronald together without speaking.
Just a little strangely, Ronald heard applause from behind, "Pa...pa...pa..."
Looking back, a man and a woman were standing not far behind.It was Roger Coleman, the boss of New World Productions, and his assistant, Miss Gale, who congratulated him with smiles.
"The shooting is very good, the lens design is very good, and the actors are also well chosen."
Roger Coleman was a tall man with neatly brushed hair, gold-rimmed glasses, and a soft-spoken, logical voice.Those who don't know will think that he is a university professor who teaches elegant subjects such as English literature.
But his films are the exact opposite of who he is.Horror, sci-fi, youth rebellion, and then add some beauties to explode.There is no storyline, some are just some favorite elements for teenagers, and they are shot hard.
His films are called exploitation films in the industry, meaning B-movies that exploit the residual value of certain elements, regardless of the storyline.It is generally shown in older movie theaters in cities, movie theaters in rural towns, or drive-in theaters.
Gail, the assistant to the president, stood beside her, with short black Sassoon hair and air bangs, like a doll.
"You're a good dancer, too," Gail teased him.
"Mr. Coleman, Gail, hello. We just finished shooting the scene in the morning. The camera crew is checking the mirror door. You can chat with Mr. Condie. I don't know how my task is completed and whether the film can be used. "
"My dear Ronald, you don't have to be overly humble at all. Gail and I have been standing here for a long time and watched the whole process of you directing this shot. I am very satisfied, and I have to admit that I am a little surprised. It is more than I imagined." Yes, it's much better and faster." Roger Coleman said, coming over to shake Ronald's hand.
The director of photography, Dean Candie, is directing the red-haired assistant to collect the film. 1000 feet (11 minutes in length) of large reels, two reels were shot in the morning.The red-haired assistant removed the lens and checked the camera door for dust and hair.When shooting movies on film, the most fearful thing is that the film will be scratched. This kind of accident is not known in advance, and it will be discovered during printing, so the only way to do it is to reshoot.
Dean Candie comes over to say hello to Roger Coleman.
"Roger, you've seen it all, Ronald did a great job."
"Are the lenses available?"
"I think it's ok, the dailies are going to be developed tonight anyway, you can see them tomorrow"
"I will."
After Roger greeted everyone, he called Ronald, Jim, director of photography Kandy, and assistant Gail, and the five walked to the high school building.
Several people walked into the principal's office, Gail pulled Jim to prepare coffee for everyone, and closed the door by the way.
Roger Coleman paused, and said: "Only the three of us know that Alan Aikush is too high and needs to stay in the hospital for a day. Joe Dante went to the Hollywood Police Station for questioning. Today they It’s impossible to be a director.”
Both Ronald and Dean Candie froze.After a few seconds, Ronald tried to confirm: "Joe went to the police station?..."
"Don't worry, I just came from the hospital, Joe was just being questioned. Last night the Ramones were playing 'Hi' at the party, and bass player Didi Ramone was fighting someone in the street and kicked him in Hospital. The victim called the police, and the police found out that Didi Raymond was with Alan and Joe when the accident last night, so the police took Joe away for questioning. Discharge." Roger Coleman tapped his fingers on the table while looking at Ronald.
"I'll tell you later that Allen is overworked and collapsed. As for Joe Dante, I'll say he went to the police to bail Diddy Raymond."
Speaking of this, Roger Coleman fixed his eyes on Ronald, "This incident has been known to the entertainment reporters in Los Angeles, and I will find a way to get them to report according to this caliber.
The reason why I tell you is: First, you are the person who arranged for Alan to go to the hospital, so you must speak with one voice.Second, I watched your directorial work, the quality is good and the speed is fast enough, so I still need you to shoot the next afternoon's scenes. "
"Should I continue filming?..." Ronald felt a little guilty. The content of his dream last night was filmed. "Mr. Coleman, can you stay and guide the filming?"
"Hey, kid, I'm the president of New World Productions. Do you know how many movies our company is currently working on? There are 12 movies in total, and 5 movies are in the shooting stage. I'm very busy."
"Okay," Ronald smiled, "I shot the scenes in the morning according to the storyboard sketches, and Mr. Candy helped me in the afternoon, so I think it's okay."
"Very good, I know you are a gifted kid with a sense of responsibility. Generally speaking, we need 2-3 years to develop a director. You know that Alan and Joe have been in the new world before they became directors Does the company cut trailers?"
"After 4 years of editing, that is, in 76, they came to me and said that as long as a few additional shots were taken, a movie could be edited with the shots of the company's old movies, and I was convinced."
Roger Coleman said slowly: "The cost of this movie is only 6 US dollars, and I sold 20 copies of it. With this foundation, they can be directors. Joe directed "Piranha" last year, This time I invested 30 yuan to shoot "Rock High School" for Allen."
It turned out that the two of them were really good friends and good colleagues, and Joe came to help.thought Ronald.
"Speaking of this, I want to tell you: I always give opportunities to talented directors. But like you, you have the opportunity to be a director not long after you come to work. It has only happened twice before."
"Thank you for your trust." Ronald didn't expect that he was valued so much by his boss.
"Although you are only a temporary director for a day, I will still give you the corresponding respect and treatment."
"Da da da"
There was a knock at the door. "Come in," Roger Coleman called.
It was Gail and Jim who came in with instant coffee.
"It's just right, you guys have coffee first, and Gail will help Dean Candy to announce to the crew later. Alan and Joe will return to the crew the day after tomorrow. This afternoon's scene will still be handled by Ronald." Roger said Coleman picked up the coffee and motioned for Ronald to follow him, "I still have something to talk about with Ronald. Let's go next door."
"Oh, by the way, don't forget to turn off the lights when you leave later." Roger Coleman pointed to the fluorescent light switch on the wall before going out.His assistant, Gail, rolled his eyes secretly, and Ronald, who was walking behind, saw it. Gail also made a mouth shape to Jim: "Ouch!"
