Made in Hollywood

Ask for a recommendation! Ask for collection!

It's not very good.

In the studio's office, Charles Rowan rested his chin with one hand, Fractured the radius of his right arm, he must quit the set.

When shooting action scenes, accidents are inevitable. Duke is also aware of this. He is worried about the other side, Will it affect the next filming of the crew?

Don't worry, Duke.

The two production managers have worked in multiple crews and obviously have extensive experience in handling them. Robin Grande said at this time, We have contacted his agent and will give appropriate financial compensation. The actors are average. There will also be no complaints to the union, which is not good for either party.

Yeah, it's just a question of compensation. Charles Rowan was also optimistic. Duke, let me and Robin handle this matter. You should concentrate on shooting.

This is exactly in line with Duke's idea, of course there is no reason to refuse, he doesn't want this kind of thing to distract himself, if there is time, let Sophia go to see the injured stuntman on his behalf, on behalf of the investor. Two production managers are the most suitable candidates.

After leaving the office, Duke went straight to the open-air studio, where the crew was still waiting for him to shoot.

Jos, the flames I want to explode can pass through the tunnel.

When he came to the set, Duke first found the pyrotechnician Joss Williams and dragged him into the set up venue together. The flame effect should be bright enough and not too powerful, and the camera will capture close-up shots...

I see.

The two sides discussed this matter yesterday, and Joss Williams seemed confident, Leave it to me.

Some actors were seriously injured, which had some impact on Duke, and no one wanted to see a safety accident happen.

Walking around the venue a few times, Duke looked at the track laid, the camera positions, the lights placed by the gaffer, and the scenery set up by the art director. Even if it was only slightly different from his conception, he would The person in charge called to rearrange.

Although not the kind of 200% perfectionist, Duke is equally strict with details, and doing the best within the effective range is the shooting effect he pursues.

An hour later, along with the loud explosion, orange-red flames rose to the sky of Warner Studios, dyeing half of the open-air photography area red.

The gust of wind from the north passed by, carrying away the pervasive gunpowder smoke, all the way east and south, and when it arrived at the Universal Studios south of Burbank, the smell of fireworks had long been lost.

Standing at the door of the studio, Martin Bob watched the scene being filmed from a distance. The girl in her teens showed her acting skills completely different from her age.

Thanks to the joint support of CAA and 20th Century Fox, after intense preparations, Interview with the Vampire has been launched in Universal Studios for nearly ten days, and the progress is smoother than they imagined. Tom Cruise, who was particularly skeptical, was also recognized by her original author after filming began.

The movie is completely in time for next year's summer season. Although the genre of the movie is a bit problematic, it is strongly promoted by CAA and 20th Century Fox, as well as the joining of two popular movie stars Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt, plus the original work. Influence, Martin Bob is confident of creating a box office bomb next summer.

Perhaps... Kirsten Dunst could also be one of the focal points of the propaganda?

Just when Martin Bob was thinking, a battery car stopped not far away, Lovett jumped out of the car and hurried over.

Mr. Bob, good news. He looked in a good mood. The crew of Breaking the Dead Island just had a safety accident, and a stuntman was seriously injured and sent to the hospital.

Are you sure? Martin Bob turned to look at him.

Sure! Lovett nodded solemnly, The Actors Guild...

After thinking about it for a few minutes, Martin Bob said slowly, You can deal with it. You can use the company's resources appropriately. I will say hello to 20th Century Fox. Their dissatisfaction with Duke Rosenberg should be vented. channel.

The next day, several local newspapers in Los Angeles also published the news that the crew of Brave to the Dead Island had an accident and the actor was seriously injured. The news was reprinted by many tabloids.

There are hidden safety hazards in the filming site of Brave to the Dead Island, and actors have been injured one after another...

According to people familiar with the matter, since the filming of Brave on the Dead Island, one actor has withdrawn voluntarily due to safety issues, and three stunt performers have been admitted to the hospital with fractures.

The California Independent, which has some influence throughout the West Coast, also disclosed the news revealed by a cast member.

You can't imagine our work environment, it's a messy 'doomsday', with dozens, even hundreds of people working together every day, things are exploding everywhere, and if we want to communicate, we have to speak up, even shout, Let each other hear! I strongly urge the Screen Actors Guild to intervene in the investigation!

In just a few days, the safety issue on the set of Brave the Dead Island has become a hot spot of concern for many people.

Due to his concentration on filming, Duke did not know about this in time. When he was reminded by Sophia and cast his attention, the people from the Screen Actors Guild had already come to Warner Studios.

In North America, labor unions are sometimes cute and sometimes annoying. For example, the Actors Union, after actors are eligible to pay membership fees, the Actors Union will come forward to protect their rights and interests as long as they need it. When it comes to the personal safety of the actors, they will also come forward to investigate.

Although many times, the Actors Guild will turn a blind eye to some large crews. After all, shooting injuries and the like are the norm. As long as the crew and the actors can reach a compensation agreement, they will not come forward. However, once they are targeted by them , definitely not a good thing.

Duke, this is Mr. Huntington, this is Mr. Ruffitt.

As soon as he walked into the office on the set, Robin Grande introduced two middle-aged men to Duke. They were investigators from the Screen Actors Guild who would investigate on the scene the treatment of the actors and the safety measures on the set.

There was no danger during filming with my crew.

In the face of the other party's routine inquiries, Duke certainly does not think that there is a problem with filming and the safety of the set. All actors are adhering to the concept of enthusiastic work, the entire venue is safe, and the crew will be responsible for each actor.

But someone was injured, said the bald middle-aged man.

It was just an accident, Duke couldn't find a good word for it. I've always been very demanding, and I've been very demanding of my crew, to do everything possible to plan and keep the actors safe.

Which action movie was shot without hurting a few? But how many times has the Screen Actors Guild come forward? Now that they came to the door, Duke also understood that there must be some more complicated reasons involved.

Today's shooting plan is in vain.

The two production managers accompanied the SAG to the set. Duke told Sophia to suspend filming and went back to his office. If even Warner Bros. couldn't figure out the SAG, he wouldn't be able to follow him. .

It didn't take long for Sophia to bring even worse news.

The union advised the crew to temporarily stop filming,

Throwing the folder on the desk, Sophia sat across from Duke angrily, to wait for their investigation results.

Hearing Sophia's words, Duke's brows furrowed unconsciously.

Indeed, the Screen Actors Guild does not have the power to stop the filming and can only make suggestions, but they can notify the actors to leave the crew temporarily, and the vast majority of the crew, including Ed Harris, Nicolas Cage and other three leading actors Actors are all members of the Actors Guild, and members of several major Hollywood trade unions are notorious for advancing and retreating with the union.

The reason is very simple. The trade union is the composition that protects their own rights and interests. It is precisely because of the trade union, whether it is an actor, a director or a screenwriter, that they can compete with employers such as the Producers Alliance.

If Duke joined the Directors Guild, he would also stand with the union when the union called for a strike.

When he left the set in the afternoon, Duke had just walked out of the gate of Warner Studios and was surrounded by many media reporters.

Director Rosenberg, it is said that there have been many safety incidents in Brave Island, is it true?

It was revealed that you illegally used military explosives in pursuit of explosive effects.

I heard that some actresses entered the crew through your relationship?

Will Brave the Dead Island be suspended due to safety issues?

With the assistance of the security guards on the set, Duke broke out of the siege of reporters, said nothing, and got into the car from Sophia.

Thank you. His face was not very good.

you are welcome.

Sophia spun the steering wheel and steered her BMW down the road to North Hollywood.

As some reporters mentioned, because of the call of the Screen Actors Guild, the crew had to temporarily suspend when there were not enough actors available to wait for the investigation results of the Screen Actors Guild.

At the same time, Duke also learned from Warner Bros. that the Actors Guild came forward this time because it received a report from the crew and was promoted by certain forces. Of course, as a trade union organization, their investigation must conform to the procedures, it is impossible Completely dismantle the crew and drag on for too long.

After a little analysis, Duke can also guess the other party's purpose.

They just want to create trouble for the crew of Brave on the Deadly Island and disrupt the shooting rhythm of the crew. After all, every day the filming is delayed, the cost of money will increase, and maybe it will cause trouble for his inexperienced director. Makes mistakes that should not have been made in the film.

As for who the other party is, it's actually not difficult to guess. There are only a few Hollywood companies that can compete with Warner Bros., and even fewer are unhappy watching him and Brave Island.

Robin...

After thinking about it, Duke called Warner's production manager, If I remember correctly, one of the main characters on the cast of Interview with the Vampire is a minor!

The shutdown of the crew has already made Duke angry.
