Hollywood: Great Directors Starting with Saw

The United States does not know how many wars it has waged abroad.

With all kinds of messy excuses, the famous laundry detergent incident, and others, the list goes on.

In short, it's nonsense.

A meme was also derived from this.

When the United States says you have weapons of mass destruction, you better actually have.

This fully demonstrates the virtue of the United States.

For such a US president, the promulgation of the Nobel Prize can only be said that the Nobel is just a political game.

Seriously, you lose.

With his status, go, is to give Oscar face.

If you don't go, Oscar, there is no way to take him.

Only those who specialize in making art films will lick the Oscars, after all, their films, only niche like, cannot be sold at the high box office.

Through the Oscars, you can get higher attention.

And a pure commercial film director like Kevin, Oscar actually does not favor him, and at the same time, he is also a relatively indifferent attitude towards Oscar.

Since Batman's dark knight won the award, he has paid much attention to the Oscar.

Awards for this thing, one is enough.

After proving your strength, it doesn't matter.

Anyway, the Oscars' blessing for commercial films is really not big enough.

If you count the cost of public relations, commercial films may not necessarily earn back, and their own early publicity is enough.

···

Even without Kevin's participation, the Oscars are still functioning normally.

The biggest beneficiary of this edition of the Oscars is a movie called American Beauty.

The film uses the example of a typical middle-class American family to show the problems hidden within American society.

From this content, we know that this is a typical award-rushing movie.

The characteristic of art films is that they always want to reflect some undesirable phenomena in reality through movies.

And its distributor is Universal Pictures, one of the five giants of the film company.

There is no need to talk about the public relations in this.

In short, when other giants did not have suitable winning movies, this film successfully became the biggest winner at the Oscars under the operation of Universal.

In one fell swoop, he won the best picture, best director, best actor and other awards.

This is the most concerned thing in the film industry.

And in the business circle outside the film industry.

Various companies are booming, the Internet age, and further, are about to enter the Internet age.

Fast forward to March 2000.

The filming of the film is basically over.

Aside from post-production and background replacement, there's not much special effects to deal with.

This kind of fight scene relies more on editing than special effects.

So it doesn't take much time.

However, Kevin stopped the work at hand for the time being, and in the company, waiting for a few directors he had made an appointment with in advance to discuss the sequel movie.

Pirates of the Caribbean, Iron Man, and Ghost Rider can't wait to continue the heat.

Otherwise, if it is not released for too long, the popularity of the first part will pass in vain.

For Kevin, this is a lot of losses.

The specific interview content is actually very simple, that is, various directors tell Kevin about their shooting concepts.

Kevin then chooses among these directors.

The interview took a total of three days and received more than a dozen directors who had some achievements in Hollywood.

In the end, Kevin selected three directors.

These three are all directors whose concepts are in line with Kevin and consider the film from a commercial point of view.

At the same time, they have also had previous film directing experience with medium-sized investments of more than 30 million US dollars, and all have achieved profitable results.

On this basis, Kevin selected these three directors.

Of course, the treatment of several leaders Kevin knows is different.

Their scripts were issued to them after Kevin confirmed that they were correct, and there was no right to modify them.

At the same time, the editing rights in the later stage are not at all.

At present, Sunrise Films has recruited two top editors in the industry.

No way, Kevin himself is really busy.

It takes a top editor to achieve the effect Kevin wants.

It is no exaggeration to say that the top editors are even stronger than some directors.

A bad film, through editing, can present a completely different taste.

These two are the top editors in the industry, with an annual salary of millions, and if the box office of the movie is good, there is another commission.

The salary is not too high.

The strength is also very strong, as long as Kevin puts forward the rhythm he wants, they can directly complete eight percent, and the remaining two percent, and then run in for a month, can also be completed.

With their help, Kevin got out of the situation of supporting a company alone.

····

March 15.

Wang Jing came to Kevin's office with the finished film.

"Done?"

Wang Jing nodded, her face full of confidence:

"Yes, you know, in Hong Kong, I make movies, not even one a month."

"This time it took five months, and it was already the crew that dragged me back."

Wang Jing's words, of course, have an element of bragging, but at the peak, there were also one week movie.

Of course, there are also a few months later.

And a week of movies, it is obvious that you can see the feeling of shoddiness.

This is also a common problem in Hong Kong movies.

Not only movies, but also TV series.

Various layouts, scenes, can see how bad it is, plastic sheeting as a waterfall.

Kevin really couldn't figure out what those who bragged about thought.

Of course, trans-era criticism is excessive, but too much bragging is not desirable.

Admit that the mainland TV series, filmed well, is it so difficult.

If nothing else, some digital movies or series of CCTV Six Princesses can be seen in the mainland.

It can only be said that Hong Kong films should have greater potential, but due to geographical constraints, they cannot exert their full capabilities.

"Okay, I will arrange some internal screenings for the audience, and arrange the corresponding publicity resources and the number of theaters released according to word of mouth."

Wang Jing has no opinion on this.

Steve Kevin's expectations for his movie are not high, and if he can have a ten million dollar back, Kevin will be able to recognize his strength.

For the box office of 10 million US dollars, Wang Jing is very confident in her heart.

The name of the ghost director is not a wasted name.

If there is not even a box office of ten million US dollars, Wang Jing is immediately ready to go back to Hong Kong.

After chatting with Wang Jing for a few words, Kevin arranged for Dawson to do these things, this kind of five-million investment movie, he is not interested in paying attention to at all.
