Legendary Hollywood Director

Cameron Studio, after a week or two of running-in, with sufficient financial support, Avatar started soon.

This matter can be hidden from outsiders, but not from insiders. Many people know that Firefly has invested more than 500 million yuan, and then counting the follow-up publicity, it went directly to more than 650 million yuan, and lamented that Mann Media has strong cash flow, While Lehman was arrogant, he was also emotionally inexplicable, waiting to see a joke. Having money is not the way to go.

But in fact, for today's Mann Media, this amount of money is to add a little bit of the money earned by Captain America ​​and throw it in, and continue to wait to double.

As of July 15, Captain America ​​has just been drawn for 9 days, with a total box office of 279 million in North America, 126 million overseas, and a global total of 405 million US dollars.

Counting the production cost of 140 million, the publicity cost of 52 million, the transportation, labor and other expenses of 11 million, and the profit of sponsorship placement, patch advertising, etc. 47 million.

Excluding the theater chain, Fox can earn 38.9 million from the box office split, and the offline profit is expected to be 25.5 million. The total project operation revenue is roughly 64.4 million US dollars.

Marvel, the producer of the project, can earn 31.72 million from the box office, with an estimated offline profit of 167 million, image derivatives of 207 million, more than 62 million of brand peripherals, 13.2 million of comic business, and the total revenue of the US team is roughly 480.92 million US dollars, of which children Bao, HOTTOYS and other toy channel distributors also have a harvest of about 138 million US dollars, which can be said to be a win-win cooperation.

In addition, Blue Butterfly Pictures has a deeper and deeper partnership with various links in the promotion process of North American distribution, and the operating cost is relatively reduced. After all, the accumulation of channel sinking is actually a water mill. A good project that is full of upstream and downstream needs time to open up and connect a denser distribution network.

Liam and his team followed the big buddies again and again, using the channels of Warner, Columbia and other publishers to familiarize themselves with and improve themselves, and such a cycle of execution would inevitably increase the background, until he stood up to stir up the lead - just Like a very patient spider spinning silk and weaving a web, Lyman thought to himself.

Maes, I'll be visiting the Avatar crew in the next few days. If you have any work to do, please send me an email. Lehman ordered her to book a flight to New Zealand.

......

The headquarters of Weta Digital is located in Wellington, the capital of New Zealand.

It took about 20 minutes to drive along the main road. In the past, there were many forks and turns. In a comprehensive special effects base with a large area, the crew of Avatar has been here for several days and filmed a lot of material.

Among them, Weta Digital has three studios, two small and one large. The large one is equivalent to a football field. It is one of the top interior locations in New Zealand. In addition, this country encourages other regions. Many film crews come here to film scenes, subsidize them and promote tourism, so every year, many film crews are received.

On the morning of the 16th, Avatar set.

To be filmed today, it was Jack who entered the connection warehouse and transformed into a Pandora star to adapt to his body. Next to the arranged basketball court scene, the male No. 1 Sam Worthington was being pulled by several staff to wear a motion capture equipment.

I have to adapt, I have to perform well, I have to adapt, I have to perform well...

Worthington, who let a group of people play with it as a tool, muttered in his heart to cheer himself up. He was an actor born in a stage play and had no connections. The reason why he was selected was that Cameron felt that the face of an actor who had acted in a stage play was not well-connected. The expression will know how to enlarge, and it is suitable for mapping facial muscles, that is, the salary is low, the appearance is medium and upper, and the face shape is very positive.

- The salary for this one is only $300,000.

After getting dressed, Worthington stood in front of the huge green screen, surrounded by several high-definition cameras. Even after training for a period of time, he was still a little confused, and his heart was still agitated.

Although he has never played a male lead before,

But I have also worked in Hollywood, and I have also cooperated with big names such as Bruce Willis and Sigourney Weaver. I have a lot of acting experience, but wearing such a big helmet, my face is covered with densely packed and densely packed masks for capture. 's stickers, and some unfamiliar myself with such a performance.

Just like the old traffic niche Leo would ask: People are not a person, is this really a performance.

But on the spot, the chopping board was pressed, and the tyrant's eyes were betrayed, and he still tried his best to contribute his slightly exaggerated body movements according to the established scene.

In the whole play, the scenes that really show his face do not add up to more than 10 minutes. It is said that it is the male lead. The shooting time is indeed the standard of the male lead. The cameras are all around him, but it does not feel as good as the frontal shots of his previous supporting role. many.

OK, next game.

The tyrant is very satisfied with the actors he chooses. Of course, when he is in a bad mood, he will still scold him.

......

After sleeping until noon, Lyman felt a little more awake, and after contacting Director Cameron for a while, he was ready to go.

In fact, the proportion of outdoor scenes in Avatar is lower than that of many commercial masterpieces. Even if you have been to the Qiankun Pillar in Zhangjiajie in the mainland, what is presented is only a scene template of Pandora star in the system. The actors perform in front of the green screen and use the computer directly. The animation rendering is generated.

Under the welcome of Jon Landau, Lyman walked into the Weta Digital Base. Various product renderings highlighted the brilliant record of this special effects giant. The Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter can be seen everywhere. ” and other movies are also a reminder of how great Weta Digital’s work can be.

All the way to visit, across the distance, I heard Cameron's familiar voice first.

Next scene, shoot in 10 minutes.

When he went in, Cameron was stunned, and then walked straight.

You're here, Lyman.

The tyrant was probably too busy. After greeting him casually, he returned to the monitor and took the storyboard to discuss with the camera.

Lehman didn't disturb his work either. Cameron is a paranoid and irritable when filming. The whole world knows that when Lehman gets along with him a few times, he understands that the media is not talking nonsense.

It wasn't until a few minutes later that the actors were in place and the shooting was about to take place, Cameron took a moment to chat with Lehman, Look, here, the video recording technology can be more intuitive and powerful, more than the ones demonstrated before. With the environment simulation, you can look at it in detail.”

Cameron smiled, then looked at Lyman. Remember what we discussed earlier? It already represents the future.

I certainly remember that if I had the chance I would try to make a 3D movie as well.

On the projection screen, in addition to the beautiful scenery of the Pandora star, Worthington, who is fully armed, is running and jumping hard. The inexplicable fusion of the two scenes makes people admire the innovation of the industry by technological progress.

So this time, visiting the class is second, learning how to use this technology to shoot is more important...
