Hollywood superstars: Start as a child star

Tips for selecting schedules

“Valentine’s Day…” Claire nodded in agreement. This is probably the best option.

…

Since the release of “The Godfather Part I” directed by Coppola in 1972. After decades of development, major film studios have figured out the right time for movie releases.

It also makes the distributors of film companies realize that they should launch specific types of films targeting different audience groups during specially arranged time periods to ensure box office success. After that, the concept of “movie schedule” came into use.

It can be said that Hollywood movies have formed a mature and complete market operation mechanism, and the research and selection of movie schedules are important factors for the success of a movie.

…

At the same time, the North American film market has also formed several unique fixed schedules.

During the ‘Double Day’ period between Christmas and New Year’s Day, most of the big-budget movies that are relatively relaxed and family-friendly are released.

Then comes the traditional American film awards season in January and February. Most of the films are biopics aimed at the Academy of Oscars. The subject matter is relatively obscure, which is a bit boring in the eyes of the public.

Next is the specific Valentine’s Day schedule, and the subject matter naturally needs no elaboration.

The next biggest schedule is the summer vacation, which starts in June, focusing on big-budget and adventure movies to cater to the student group.

There is also a Halloween period, which is similar to the Valentine’s Day period and is very targeted to the group.

…

This knowledge was all learned when Claire chatted with producer Mr. Sparks during the filming.

As a producer, it seems like you don’t have to worry about any specific matters, you just have to use your words. But you have to be clear about everything! You don’t have to be proficient, but you have to understand. Otherwise, the people below will use their professional knowledge to deceive you, and the consequences of being kept in the dark will be unbearable.

“Roxy, which time do the crew of “Spider-Man” plan to release it?”

Claire and Roxy were on their way to the Fox TV studio. Tonight is the live broadcast of the elimination round of the top 24 and the top 12 of “American Idol” . Claire’s sister Lina made it to the top 24. Tonight’s game is very important!

Once it breaks into the top 12, the resources provided by Fox will be completely different. This time, Fox will also cooperate with BMG, one of the world’s top five record companies, to sign all the top 12 actors. There will be an opportunity to release a single, and if the top performer is ranked first, a solo album will be released.

When Fox TV Network announced this welfare arrangement to the 24 contestants present, the atmosphere instantly became anxious!

The temptation is too great! The impact of huge interests has made the already explosive competition even more intense!

“According to the current production progress, it is very appropriate to choose the Christmas and New Year’s Day schedules.” Roxy replied, “According to past practice, it is actually the best choice to wait until the summer vacation for this type of movie. However, Sony… Columbia couldn’t wait until the summer vacation of 2000 to release it again. The company’s current cash flow is very tight. The key blockbuster “The Patriot” released this summer was rubbed on the ground by “Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone” and suffered losses. . So the group’s senior management wants to release “Spider-Man” as soon as possible to reverse the current predicament.” ”

Then, the production quality of the movie should be guaranteed! You can’t just make a semi-finished product because you are in a hurry to release it, and then it’s over!” Claire said worriedly.

“Don’t worry about this. Director Sam Raimi is still there, fully clothed, watching over him. The probability of anything going wrong is very low.” Roxy reassured.

“That’s good…whenever the samples come out, I’m going to take a look.” Claire suggested.

“Don’t worry, I will remind you when the time comes.”

“Speaking of which, the Fox TV Network is really generous this time~” Claire said about the top 12 competition that was about to begin in the evening, “promising that every contestant will receive the famous Personal singles tailor-made by composers and lyricists, and the top three also have exclusive personal albums. The cost is high enough!” “They didn’t lose money either. They made

a few bucks just from the text messages with the communication company. Tens of millions of dollars. Not to mention the ever-increasing advertising costs!” Roxy explained, “”American Idol” has become the ratings champion of its time period, and any other TV station has to beat it.” “Hahahaha, I just

said Come on! My licensing price is really, really cheap! They even bargained with me, so far-sighted!” Claire laughed and boasted proudly.

“Indeed.” Roxy didn’t play devil’s advocate this time and replied to Claire, “They should be worrying about how much the licensing fee will be when they renew your contract next year. After all, there are other TV stations that are also eyeing it.” “Haha

. Haha~ I swear, I will give you a good price!”

…

The stage setting at the competition site was still a bit crude in Claire’s opinion. After being bombarded by East Asian variety shows in later generations, Claire has remained calm despite the storm.

The first session is always good, and the quality of the players selected is very high. From what Claire heard, her sister Lina’s strength was ranked in the middle or upper reaches at best. But one thing is that her face has the upper hand. He who is good-looking is not as good at singing as she is, and he who sings better than her is not as good-looking as him.

Claire estimates that entering the top 12 should be no problem.

“Lina, we can only advance to the top 12 this time, so let’s stop there!” Claire asked Roxy next to her for her opinion.

“Not necessarily, the top eight are also possible.” Roxy analyzed calmly, “According to the predictions of Fox’s “American Idol” program team, the gender distribution of the top twelve is 7 boys and 5 girls, and the number of girls is relatively small. Lina is among the girls Her popularity is between the top three.”

“Well, I hope she can make it to the top eight! I even prepared a title song for her! She will definitely kill everyone by then, and the winner of “American Idol” will not be able to compare. Her! Hum~” Claire smiled very arrogantly.

He has put out the secret operation and put Lina into the top three. It’s not that he doesn’t want to, but reality doesn’t allow it. As soon as Lina found Claire, she sternly warned him about his petty tricks and told him to compete cleanly… Claire promised repeatedly on her face, but silently complained in her heart, “You are too naive. When others know about our relationship, don’t do it.” I want to be ‘clean’…

Secondly, this competition did produce some extremely good players, the kind that God chases after them to feed them. If Claire engages in black box operations to hack them and let Lina take over, he is really harming Lina and putting her on the fire.

The audience is blind and deaf, and they may scold the show crew and Claire to death. Therefore, these objective and subjective factors are combined. Claire decided to let nature take its course and let Lina take her own fate
