Made in Hollywood

Ask for a recommendation! Ask for collection!

Audience like is my first consideration when making a film. Duke answered of course.

Like an explosion?

Yes, an explosion?

What else do you plan to bomb next? The reporter was curious.

I think the White House is a good target.

It was an awards ceremony full of jokes that no one would take seriously, but Duke added, In the movies, of course.

We look forward to seeing footage like this.

thanks!

After dealing with reporters, Dukla walked Naomi Watts to the side door exit. MTV has a party next, but tomorrow he is going to San Francisco and does not plan to attend.

I heard from Nancy... Naomi said with a twinkle in her arms, holding Duke, You have hired two screenwriters and are filling two scripts? Shouldn't you really blow up the White House next?

Actually a script has been completed. Duke shrugged. The White House, Congress, Manhattan, the Golden Gate Bridge, the Statue of Liberty, and the Washington Monument are all targets for me to blow up. I want to destroy the whole of North America.

Out of the side door, the rented RV was already waiting here, Dukla opened the door, and waited for Naomi Watts to get in the car before getting into the rear compartment.

North Hollywood. Duke rose up the baffles that cut off the front and rear seats.

Naomi Watts has never forgotten the topic just now. After thinking about it, she asked tentatively, A new script or a male drama?

Not exactly... Duke shook his head. It would be a group show.

He couldn't guess what the blonde was thinking, he reached out and raised her chin, hooked it in front of him, and slowly kissed the two pink and soft red lips, and a tender tongue immediately got in His mouth, like the sea breeze in this season, gently swept over every sensitive area.

Duke...

After a long time, the two separated, Naomi's arm was hanging around his neck, and her blue-green eyes were full of joy, I...how should I thank you?

You're welcome. Duke's eyes swept across her face, sliding all the way down. You're really pretty, Nami.

Naomi's arms slowly pulled hard and pulled Duke closer to her chest, so that his face was directly attached to the opening of the low-cut dress. She knew very well that Duke was interested in her beautiful and charming clothes. Body, this is also her biggest asset in front of him.

Twenty-five-year-old Naomi Watts is the most beautiful age for a woman. Duke also needs a suitable bed partner to relieve the anxiety and stress brought by career. People who don't give, those who are suitable for each other's roles, what's the harm in giving them to her?

It was another intoxicating night. The two were like most men and women in this circle. They didn't think about tomorrow or look at the past. They stood on the same line temporarily because of their current interests and needs.

The next day, Duke returned to San Francisco, and the shooting of Brave Island has entered the final stage. Even in the two days he was away, the crew did not temporarily stop. Under the leadership of Zack Snyder, Filmed many literary dramas on Alcatraz Island.

It was another morning of filming, and everyone else was resting after lunch. Zach Snyder, Sofia Coppola, and John Schwartzman, the core members of the team, sat with Duke. Watch footage shot over the past few days in front of a monitor.

Look here, Zach.

Press the pause button, Duke pointed to the screen, it was the Marine Corps descending from the building, You are using parallel shooting here, if you change the angle, use the upward shooting method on the ground, and watch the speed from bottom to top. Drop, will there be different senses?

The downhill team went straight to the camera and fell. Zach Snyder also accumulated a lot of experience when shooting commercials, and soon figured it out, If you put it in the theater, there will be an illusion of landing in front of the audience.

That's right... Duke gave him a thumbs up and added, For a shot like this, we can slow it down in post-production to increase the pressure on the audience.

The helicopters and the SEALs are still on set, Zach Snyder apparently agreed with Duke. I'm going to reshoot them this afternoon.

Zach, you have a natural acuity in the use of color.

This is a partner who has built a certain relationship of trust, Duke said bluntly, but the use of the camera is your weakness.

After discussing a few more things about the camera and filming, Zach Snyder and John Schwartzman left first, and Sophia sat behind Duke and didn’t say much.

Duke, can I make a copy of the finished film, she said suddenly.

Doing another experiment? Duke understands that Sophia has never relaxed the opportunity to learn and practice in private, I will say hello to Robin and Charles, you can print a copy, but you have to pay for it yourself!

Also! Duke pointed to Sophia behind him, If any film leaks out, I'll kill you, Sophia! I promise!

Not in a hurry now. Sophia ignored Duke's later words. After you seal the film, I will take all the film to the Warners Studio to develop a copy, and then edit a film that suits my taste.

Don't you want to cut an action movie into a romance? Duke said teasingly.

Then it depends on my personal preferences. Sophia shrugged and reminded him again, The lunch break is almost over, we should go to the studio.

After the MTV Awards, the name Breakthrough Island spread further due to live broadcasts and media hype, and with those chain reactions Duke brought on Speed ​​of Life, the film was in action. This huge group of movie fans has a certain popularity.

And Naomi Watts, she did make some impressions after walking the red carpet, she was on a local TV talk show, she was a smart woman who knew Duke, Nan Hope and Warner's factors in the promotion of the film also talked a lot about Brave the Dead Island in the interview.

As a veteran Hollywood giant, Warner Bros. is no weaker than 20th Century Fox in terms of publicity. They have formulated a perfect publicity plan for Brave Island, even after watching many popular scenes shot by Duke , has listed the film as one of Warner's biggest summer projects.

The clouds and mists that cover the Golden Gate Bridge are unpredictable, and every day brings surprises. On the way to and from Alcatraz for the next two weeks, Duke will take advantage of the sunrise and sunset to take some wide-angle views. The last part of the shooting on Alcatraz, there is no After the speeding, collision and explosion, it was extraordinarily quiet, lacking the interruption of noise. Except for Duke, who felt a little dull, the spirit of the rest of the crew improved significantly, and even the shooting rhythm was constantly accelerated.

After more than two months of hard work and suffering, Brave on the Deadly Island has gradually come to the end of the shooting.

In the entertainment plaza of Alcatraz, Duke put the hat representing the lucky Los Angeles Raiders on his head against the blowing sea breeze, glanced at the Golden Gate Bridge from a distance, turned and walked behind the monitor.

Let's get started, he said to Sophia.

Sophia's nasal voice came over the loudspeaker.

The one hundred and fifty-second scene, the fifteenth act, start!

In the crowd walking back and forth, Ed Harris found the group of little tourists and squatted in front of a little blond girl, with a serious face in the past, full of friendliness.

Can you help me with something? This matter is very important. I want you to tell the teacher and let the teacher take you back to the boat right away.

Um……

The little blond girl nodded.

Seeing that there was no problem with the little girl's performance, Duke let out a slow sigh of relief. Children and animals were the most uncontrollable factors during filming, but this little girl obviously had acting experience, and the last shot passed smoothly.

CUT!

After shouting to stop, Duke asked for a loudspeaker from Sophia, raised it and said, We've had all kinds of difficulties for two and a half months, everyone has been tormented by the noise, don't deny it, I know you all scream in private I'm the noise maker...

A burst of laughter broke out on the makeshift set.

thank you all.

Although we encountered such a bad thing as the shutdown, compared to the last time, the shooting was much smoother this time, especially the crew, who are basically working in the same direction, Each of you is an important part of this crew. !

One last point, Duke said. Tomorrow we'll be back in Burbank, and we'll have a big party on the Warners set!

Wow……

The crew let out a whimper of excitement, and after being tortured by Duke for more than two months with crashes and explosions, they could finally relax.

The sun moved to the west, infinitely close to the sea, the crew packed up and put all the equipment on the boat, Duke and the cast and crew boarded the ferry and headed for the pier in San Francisco Bay with the roar of the motor.

Sophia... Duke said as he habitually walked to the bow, The film and equipment are temporarily sealed in the warehouse opposite the Warner Factory studio... Oh, yes, if you have time, you can find someone to copy it for you. A film, and I've already said hello to both production managers.

thanks.

You're welcome between us.

Walking to the bow, Duke found that the little blond girl who was playing against Ed Harris was standing next to the guardrail. When the other party saw him, he waved, Hello, Mr. Director.

Hello. The accent girl seemed to be from the East Coast.

The little girl was about ten years old, with prominent blond hair and unusual blue and green eyes. She was not very pretty, but she was very cute.

Hey dear...

A middle-aged woman ran over, pulled the little girl and walked towards the rear cabin, Why did you run out alone...

Looking back at the mother and daughter, Duke shook his head. As long as there is demand in Hollywood, there are a large number of parents who send their children to this Vanity Fair.

Dispelling these thoughts that had nothing to do with him, Duke looked into the distance. After the party of the crew was over, there were more important post-productions waiting for him.
