Hollywood Starts with Animation

Paramount Pictures Filming Base.

The film "Memento" crew.

Today is the day when the film "Memento" officially started filming. As the film's first producer, Zucker, naturally, will appear on the set.

Looking around the world, it is not uncommon for the crew of the crew to unite to oppress the director!

Wald Pictures has not been established for a long time, but many internal crew members have participated in "Lola Run", "Juno", "Deadly Bend 1", "Human Removal Plan", and "The Sixth Sense" The shooting of the film, the output of a series of high-box-office movies, will inevitably make some people who can't recognize themselves become inflated.

Even though Nolan has directed a movie "Fatal Bend 2" for Wald Pictures, it is inevitable that he will be despised and even resisted by some people because of his youth.

And when Zucker arrived today, he made it clear that he supported Christopher Nolan. He even told all the crew members that he was covered by me, Zucker.

"Servep, you are the production manager of the "Memento" crew. You tell some people to put away their careful thoughts. Once in the process of filming, someone dares to challenge the authority of director Nolan, or even make a non-cooperation You don't care who he is, let him get out. Do you remember?!" Zucker said.

Hearing this, Servip, the old man of Wald Pictures, hurriedly nodded.

"Boss, don't worry. I'm here for everything. I'll see who's going to make a fuss."

Since the establishment of Wald Pictures, the first batch of recruits to join the company, Servep, understands the style of his boss very well.

"Um."

Zucker nodded in satisfaction.

Hollywood's movie opening ceremony does not have the same set of worship rituals of the Great Celestial Dynasty and Xiangjiang.

After accepting some interviews with media reporters, today's shooting is about to begin.

"On-site production manager, start clearing the scene immediately;"

"Camera crew, check the instruments;"

"Lighting team, you dim the lights a little bit, the movie we shoot is a suspense movie;"

"Props group, set group,

Double-check the shooting scene;"

......

Although Christopher Nolan has not made many movies as a director, his directing talent is enough to make up for some lack of experience. Under his mediation, the entire crew started to get busy in an orderly manner.

"Hey, man. I looked at your filming plan. Are you planning to finish all of Memento within 30 days?" Zucker asked as he approached Nolan.

Nolan nodded: "Yes, Mr. Wald. The script of "Memento" seems to be very complicated. The main plot and the memory plot are two parallel lines, but as a director, after sorting it out, it is very easy. filming, so a 30-day filming cycle is completely sufficient.”

At this moment, Zu Ke was very surprised!

You must know that the "Memento" movie is very brain-burning. Many people said they were a little confused after watching the movie once.

Even many viewers directly said after watching the movie: "Although I don't understand it, I really think the director is very good, his brain is quite big, and the overall feeling is very cool."

There are also many viewers who directly stated: "I didn't understand it the first time, so I want to watch the movie twice and three times."

Christopher Nolan is extremely good at fooling the audience.

For example, in the movie "Inception" that he will shoot in the future, whether it is American moviegoers or moviegoers from the Great Celestial Dynasty, many people feel a little confused when they watch the movie for the first time, and many details cannot be straightened out, so they are two. Brush, three brush movies.

Then he shouted: "The director is awesome!"

Zucker said again: "Nolan, since you are sure to complete the shooting plan within 30 days, can you guarantee that the film of "Memento" will be completed before the end of April."

"no problem."

Although Nolan didn't understand the meaning of Zucker's words, he still made a guarantee.

Zu Ke asked him this sentence, of course it had a purpose!

"For the 51st Cannes Film Festival, the deadline for the registration of participating films is at the end of April. We can bring Memento to Cannes!" Zucker suggested immediately.

Immediately, Nolan was overjoyed.

Man, Cannes Film Festival!

As the Cannes Film Festival, which has become one of the three major film festivals in Europe along with the Venice Film Festival and the Berlin Film Festival, in the past ten years, although it has become a little down with the rise of Hollywood, the foundation is still there, and it is still the world's film business. And movie audiences, more concerned about the existence.

The Palme d'Or is still very net.

Don't you see a great director surnamed Chen, relying on the Palme d'Or in 1993, he has been eating in the Great Heaven for a lifetime.

The main reason for "Memento" to participate in the Cannes Film Festival is to enhance the influence of Wald Pictures in overseas countries!

Of course, the ultimate goal is to build an overseas distribution network.

Zucker is very strong in the United States now. The super-rich with a net worth of more than 1 billion, even the Big Six in Hollywood, cannot easily grasp it, but it is different in overseas regions.

Qianglong still does not suppress the snake in the ground!

As an outsider, Wald Pictures, before having a strong background, wants to set up an overseas distribution network, and can only rely on one excellent movie to knock on the movie market in various countries and regions!

"Memento" is not a big production, but director Nolan arranged the intricate plot under the calm and sharp language of the camera lens, combining many factors such as violence, suspicion, and brain burning; in addition, we can also see Thinking about the philosophy of life and psychology is a masterpiece with the spirit of exploration.

And European film festivals, as well as filmmakers, are very good at it!

This is an opportunity!

An opportunity for Wald Pictures to open the film market in overseas countries and regions!

Even if you can only enter one or two countries and regions, that is not a small success!

Without a perfect overseas distribution channel, Zucker dared not rashly launch the "Spider-Man" series of movies and the "Harry Potter" series of movies. Otherwise, will it continue to cooperate with Paramount and hand over a large amount of interests?

Sorry, Zhu Ke is not so selfless!

Not so stupid!

"You don't have a perfect global distribution network, but you have many movie rights that can generate nearly one billion US dollars in box office worldwide, so you will be waiting for you one by one evil wolves!"

"Hollywood's six, even Paramount Pictures, which is now closely cooperating with Wald Pictures, will definitely turn its face at the first time, rush over and dismember Wald Pictures!"

A five-year-old child carrying gold bricks through the busy city is the way to die!

Therefore, although Zu Ke has many excellent film copyrights in hand, he does not dare to start the project easily.

Spielberg's DreamWorks, strong enough?

Known as the strongest film company under the Big Six, it is also a prestigious existence in the world, but in the face of the exclusion and suppression of the Big Six in Hollywood, it can only drink hatred and sadness!

"Now, I have to...have to be steady." Zucker pondered in his heart.

"" The first update was sent, and the second update was sent in succession.
