[US Entertainment] Wild Child

The sunshine in September was just right, and the afternoon sun shone vigorously on the pier, shining on the face of that handsome boy. The smile on his face was brighter than the sun, and the hand-rolled cigarette in his mouth added to his joy. uninhibited.

The extras are the backdrop for him, he's wearing a rough tile-blue coat, his mid-length blond hair falls in a lock, and you can see him just by looking up.

This is really strange, Summer thought, as if he hadn't noticed him so eye-catching before.Looking at it objectively, his height does have a big advantage, and besides, they are so familiar, it doesn't take much time to quickly lock onto his face.

No matter what role he plays, Leonardo is very serious. He has done his homework in advance, and he is famous for being able to quickly understand the meaning of the director on the set. He is a good actor and the directors he has worked with all have a good impression of him.Even a "studio tyrant" like James Cameron can be said to be amiable to him.

Cameron shouted "cut", and Leonardo immediately put down the cards in his hand and walked out of the makeshift set.

"Summer." He smiled.

Summer hesitated for a moment, stretched out his hand and pulled his collar, "You don't look like you anymore."

"Doesn't it look good?" He shook the hem of his clothes, "Susanna just said not long ago that I look good in whatever I wear." Suzanne likes him very much, and he knows that. Summer's face control attributes are probably inherited from his mother. Yeah, there's nothing wrong with that, it's even good in a sense.

She just laughed, "Mom would say that you look good in hemp, I really doubt that one day she will become your fan."

He raised his eyebrows and smiled without saying a word.

Summer left after less than 30 minutes, as if he just came to see him.Now that she has graduated, she doesn't need to set aside time for homework. The days without announcements are a bit boring, so she often goes to the pier location to learn photography skills.She bought a Nikon SLR camera used by photojournalists. She has a natural artistic sensitivity to light, shadow and composition. After taking hundreds of photos, she can be regarded as a beginner. She quickly got used to the image processing software Photoshop, and bought a special one. Apple computers process photos.

The best models to learn portrait shooting techniques are actors. Actors are used to being photographed, and they don’t feel uncomfortable. Most of them are very photogenic, and the results are good. Extras are also very interesting to shoot , She learned to capture the moment, and the photos she took often have quite good composition and artistic conception.

She is the heroine of the film, the photographer and assistant photographer will not refuse to answer her questions, and will give pointers when she is free. Cameron himself is also a director, screenwriter, producer, and photographer. After reading her works, I asked her to learn more. Of course, the best way is to watch more and practice more. He himself did not have a major in directing at a film school. With the enthusiasm of a young man, he studied the techniques and skills of film production day and night, and wrote the script of "The Terminator" a few years later. After going through hardships, he became a director for the first time. become a famous director.

There are hundreds of portrait photographers who rely on Hollywood for a living, and this does not include photographers who professionally shoot movies and TV shows, let alone photographers for entertainment magazines and paparazzi, but only those photographers who specialize in taking resume photos for actors , Many well-known portrait photographers hold multiple jobs, open their own private photography studios, and will be special photographers for many magazines. Some people earn tens of thousands of dollars a year just by taking photos of actors. Wan is not very difficult, and the money scene is still very impressive.

Although Summer doesn't need to expect to make money from this craft, there is nothing wrong with learning more. She thinks that she is now a bit of a literary young woman.

The people she photographed the most were Leonardo and Cameron. Most of them were sneak shots. Leonardo can be said to be a beautiful boy with 360 degrees and no dead ends. Cameron is also a very handsome guy with a temperament. He can be regarded as a director In the group with better looks, his hair and beard are gray, he is thin, his spirit is still not very good, and sometimes he looks tired.

Suzanne noticed the situation, "You shot a lot of Leo."

"I shoot Jim just as much, and everybody else."

"That's different."

"What's the difference?"

"Probably because you like him better."

"Of course I like him, he's my friend."

"Just friends?"

"Of course. I think it's better to be friends with him. Now I don't want to change this relationship. Mom, Leo's feelings for me seem to have changed a bit."

"Really?" Suzanne stroked her hair lightly, "Papa also said, be careful of Leo's lies. My baby is so cute. It's normal for him to fall in love with you. If he doesn't fall in love with you, he's blind." Eye!"

Samo laughed loudly, "Mom!"

"What about you?" He bowed his head and kissed the top of her hair, "Are you in love with him?"

"Love?" she was still laughing, "I won't say 'love' until I find a boy who loves me like Daddy loves you."

Suzanne patted her chest pretendingly, "Then I can finally tell Dad that he doesn't have to worry about you getting married as soon as you turn 18."

"Is Dad worried about this? Let him not worry, I won't be 18 until two years later." She said solemnly.Dennis likes to tease her with this, just like all fathers with beautiful daughters, worrying all day long about some bastard who will easily cheat his precious daughter away.Strangely, neither Dennis nor Suzanne thought of Vincent as the "bad boy".

After Suzanne left, Summer looked through the "Leo" folder on the Apple computer for a while.

It's true that she took a lot of photos of him, but that's because his face is really pretty.

Leonardo is very happy and even proud that Summer regards him as a model to practice photography skills: no matter what she is doing, as long as it is related to him, he will be very happy.

He unprincipledly boasted that her photography skills have improved by leaps and bounds, and excitedly flipped through the photos with her, and randomly commented: This one is pretty good, look at my extraordinary posture; that one makes me so ugly, hurry up destroy.

A week passed quickly. The shooting at the Long Beach Wharf ended on Friday. In the fourth week of September, the shooting at Rosarito, Mexico, will begin.

Twentieth Century Fox built a huge artificial lake by the sea in Rosarito, specially built cast and crew residences, and built two interior studios.The shots of other locations have all been shot, including the picture of the wake of the ship taken at the San Pedro Pier in Los Angeles, the picture of the dolphins chasing the waves taken by the dolphins rented from the Los Angeles Zoo, and the sightseeing warship "Jeremiah" in San Francisco. Shots of the Titanic cabin carried out on board the "O'Brien".The Jeremiah O'Brien is a Freedom-class warship built during World War II. It uses a steam turbine engine, which is very close to the steam turbine unit of the Titanic.

The cast and crew have arrived in Rosarito one after another since Saturday, and quite a few staff members were already there at the Rosarito filming location. After putting down their luggage, Leonardo dragged Summer to see the construction site in the artificial lake. A replica of the Titanic.

Due to tight funds and tight schedules, Cameron decided to build only half of the ship, which brought many difficulties to the actual filming work, but at this moment the actors do not know what they will encounter in the next few months of filming. what kind of difficulty.

"This is really an amazing big ship!" Leonardo praised.

In accordance with Cameron's requirements, the preliminary working group actually built 9 models of the Titanic in different proportions and parts. The largest and most magnificent is of course this one-to-one half-scale replica.

Summer also thought Cameron was crazy, "I heard that the props team ordered a carpet of the same color and material from the company that ordered the carpet from White Star Company, and the carpet alone cost hundreds of thousands."

"Yes, it is said that they wanted to order porcelain with the White Star company's trademark from the original British factory, but the original factory has long since disappeared, so they had to order from other companies."

"I also heard that they spent a lot of money to specially imitate many furniture and home furnishings from the early [-]th century. I really want to see those interior scenes earlier."

He smiled, "You will always see it."

She fiddled with her Nikon camera and took some pictures.

According to the shooting schedule they both received, all the interior scenes were filmed first, and the scenes that needed to be launched into the water were filmed last.Since there are so many underwater scenes, the script accounts for half of the length of the film. It is conceivable that shooting underwater scenes will be very difficult.

They both think back to the two weeks they spent filming the pool scene in Mexico City earlier this year.The latitude of Mexico City is very low, and it is quite cold to stay in the water in February, while the latitude of Tijuana is higher. If the plan is to start shooting underwater scenes from January, it is conceivable that the feeling will be very sour and very cool. cold.

Both of them dislike cold water in winter, but actors are like this. It is normal to shoot summer scenes in winter and winter scenes in summer. It is not too much to ask for a few hours in the water every day. This is the role of actors. occupational risk.

"Romeo and Juliet" has already started the preliminary promotion. The large posters of Romeo hugging Juliet have been published in some movie magazines and entertainment magazines since the summer. The photographer took extremely gorgeous promotional photos for them, and several main promotional posters appeared In some outdoor ad windows, sales of magazines with promotional posters are up, and teens are already discussing this version of Romeo and Juliet.

The author has something to say: *It seems that the interior scenes are shot first, the exterior scenes are shot first, and the underwater shots are finally shot, but the order is not very important.
