: Five - heroine
Luke Simmons, who graduated two years before Wayne and excelled in school. However, what Hollywood lacks the most is talented people. In two years, Luke has only been introduced by his classmates and ran through several crews as an assistant director.
The reason why Luke agreed to the mentor's introduction was because the mentor told him that Wayne agreed to let him be an assistant director, which was a rare opportunity to allow him to deeply participate in the production of a film.
Pushing open the door of the cafe, Luke sat across from Wayne. He knew this junior, but he had never dealt with it before.
He raised his head to read the documents and looked at the senior, who was wearing a baggy suit, no tie, and half-worn leather shoes. It seemed as the teacher said, the senior was not doing well.
"Luke? I'm Wayne, the teacher should have told you, right? Let me tell you what I think, you can be an assistant director, but I need a crew coordinator, you have to do it together, the salary will not be too high, I The budget is not much, is there a problem?"
Wayne was the first to speak. He didn't have much time, so he could hurry up.
"No problem, I can work at any time, do I need to see my resume?"
Luke took out a resume from his bag and put it on the table. Wayne glanced at it and wrote about the experience of various crews. Although it was basically a chorus or a director's assistant, at least he was experienced and had seen one. How a full-length movie was born.
"I believe in your ability, and I believe in the teacher more. He speaks highly of you. Do you have any doubts? You can tell everything now. We will be very busy at the beginning of the work."
Looking at him sincerely, he was telling the truth, there are still many things waiting for the two of them, and when they are busy, they don't have time to sit down and explain to him slowly.
"Wayne, I know you, you have excellent grades, you study hard, and you can be said to be a generalist. I hope you know that I am not involved in your project for that poor weekly salary.
I can also act as the coordinator of the crew, and even the field duties and chores. But you have to make sure that the film will definitely be finished, that it will not be half-finished, and that I must be able to deeply participate in the production, even in the later stages of the film. "
Wayne thought about it for a while, and it wasn't a big problem.
"Ok, here are the materials and script attachments of my studio. You can get to know me first, give me a call, and work will start tomorrow."
Handed Luke the information, he needed to understand it as soon as possible and enter the working state. In Luke's experience, the job of coordinating the crew should be able to do the job, so Wayne can put down a lot of chores.
The coordinator of the crew, this position is very important in the crew, but it is very inconspicuous. It is like a person who specializes in handling various chores of the crew. It is best to have participated in the operation of the crew and have experience. Generally, no one who is arrogant and arrogant is willing to do this job, but this senior brother obviously doesn't care.
The next day, Luke came to Wayne's apartment as scheduled.
"Sorry, Luke, I'm a bit messy, but I don't have much money and I need to save it, so I can't rent an office space, I can only make do with it."
Wayne brought him a bottle of water and tossed aside the videotape and dirty clothes on the sofa.
"It doesn't matter, you are very lucky to find the filming funds. I think you have basically found the crew members. What do you need me to do now?"
"Have you read the script? It's probably like that, and there won't be any other changes. Haven't you been in other crews? This is the camera equipment I need, you should be familiar with it, go to a few more places to ask. price, find a cheap rental company."
Wayne handed him a printout, then went back to his seat and continued to draw the storyboard. These materials were all found by him in the past few days. It can be said that renting equipment is very important. Prices vary widely, and Wayne has to save money.
"Okay, give me the phone number of your apartment, I will contact you if there is any situation."
Luke shook his head with the information, opened the door and went downstairs to find the rental company for an inquiry. He had read the script yesterday, and it basically did not conform to the content of mainstream movies, which made him a little discouraged.
The movie starts with the protagonist being killed, and the protagonist is killed in the middle. There is also an old-fashioned time loop to solve puzzles. A horror comedy film with obvious black attributes, this type is a carnival of niche fans at first glance, and the investment must be very small.
But that's right, if you want to make mainstream movies with this amount of money, it's just wishful thinking. Anyway, Luke is not very optimistic about this project, but he is reluctant to take this rare opportunity to deeply participate in film production.
He doesn't care what Luke thinks. Now he has to worry about drawing the storyboard, considering the arrangement of the camera, and at the same time, he has to call Jimmy to communicate about the actors and crew.
Wayne grabbed his hair, put down his pencil, and was about to go downstairs to buy a pack of cigarettes. During this time, he was under too much pressure and was about to pick up the hobby from his previous life. He knew it was not a good habit, but it helped him relax his mind and refresh his mind.
"Hey, you don't look very good! You feel a lot of haggard, you smoke leaf cigarettes? Trust me, boy, that's not a good habit."
Just as he closed the door, a neighbor's greeting rang from behind him.
"No, I won't touch that stuff. Maybe I need regular cigarettes to relieve the pressure. I'm going downstairs to buy two packs of cigarettes. Do you have any plans for today? Ms. Watts? Have a coffee together?"
Wayne tentatively asked the beautiful neighbor.
"Are you going to your house? Are you sure you have coffee in your house? Not those **** little umbrellas! Well, I'm fine, maybe I'll be back in a few days, maybe Hollywood isn't for me, maybe I should go back and continue acting. Annual commercials, TV shows."
He shrugged, she obviously misunderstood, but judging from what she meant, she shouldn't hate herself, at least she agreed to the invitation, so she didn't explain. Opening the door that had just been locked, Wayne invited her in and said to her:
"I'm sorry, it's a little messy. I'm too busy during this time, and I'm not in the mood to clean the room."
As he spoke, he picked up the dirty clothes that were littered on the sofa and the floor, and put them into the washing machine in the bathroom.
"Oh~ Maiga! Your room seems to have been visited dozens of times by a group of thieves, too busy? What are you doing, I can hardly see you going out, maybe you should show up at school instead of cleaning yourself up Where did you put the garbage bags when Tian was locked in the apartment?"
The beautiful neighbor watched him scrambling to clean up, found a garbage bag, helped him throw all kinds of household garbage into it, and picked up hamburger packages, pizza boxes, and drink bottles that could be seen everywhere in the house.
"Yes, I'm graduating soon. I wrote a script by myself. I'm basically preparing for this time. I plan to shoot him, and I'm lucky enough to get the investment. Thank you for helping me clean up my room, no I think you're pretty good at doing housework, you know, the pretty girls I know usually don't do that."
Wayne held his hands and leaned against the bathroom door, watching her put all the garbage in the bag, then picked up the broom and swept the living room.
"Can I take this as a compliment? Do you think I'm beautiful? Boy, my sister taught you one thing, that is, the next time you want to ask a girl to go home, clean the apartment in advance, otherwise no girl will be willing to go with a girl. Dirty lads roll the sheets, even if the lads are handsome."
The beautiful neighbor looked up at him, swept all the **** into the bag, opened the door and put it at the door.
Is she beautiful? Undoubtedly, she has blonde hair, slender waist and long legs, a delicate face, and a slender figure with bumps. What is rare is that her appearance is completely in line with the oriental aesthetics. In his previous life, he had shown King Kong himself.
"Of course it's beautiful. It can be seen that you must have been insisting on maintaining your body, especially when you look at you from a close distance. It's very spicy. Oh, sorry, I'll go make coffee."
When he brought the two cups of coffee to the coffee table, the beautiful neighbor wiped the surroundings with a Wayne's ripped T-shirt, and then nodded relievedly and sat on the sofa.
"Okay, I didn't expect you to have coffee at home. You said you wanted to shoot the script you wrote yourself? Can I take a look, at least I've been through a few tricks."
Wayne watched her take a sip from the cup, licked her lips, woo, very tempting. I was embarrassed to stare at her, so I quickly turned around and picked up the script and handed it to her.
"Here, talk about your own feelings after reading it, from the perspective of an audience."
The beautiful neighbor took over the script, and Wayne watched her read it slowly, taking a sip of coffee from time to time. I have to say it was a stunner, especially when I was young.
"Well, let me tell you my feelings, this film is obviously made for young people, or students? Middle-aged and elderly people are not interested in watching this type of horror film.
In addition, I think the story may be a little thin and a little old-fashioned. Sorry, I don't know much either, but I know it might work for you, at least it doesn't cost a lot of money. "
After watching the beautiful neighbor, she tilted her head and thought for a while, and spoke slowly.
Wayne tapped the script with his hand, looked at her and said:
"Are you interested in the heroine? You should see the setting, blonde, beautiful, you have it all."
"What do I need to pay? You know what I mean, if I want this heroine. Believe me, I can play this role."
Hearing Wayne ask her, the beautiful neighbor immediately looked at her seriously. Halfway through the script, she realized that this was an opportunity, a starring opportunity that was at your fingertips.
Wayne thought about it and said to her:
"This role doesn't need any acting skills, you should see it, as long as it's beautiful enough. I can tell you in advance that the pay for this role is not high, or even very low, at most $20,000, and I don't have much budget."
"No problem, I can call my agent to sign the contract tomorrow, you should understand that I need this lead actress opportunity. What else? Would you like to audition for my "acting"? I know the rules, If you want something in return, you have to give something.”
Of course, he knew that she would definitely not miss this opportunity after reading the script. The opportunity is more attractive to actors. All the handsome men and women all over the world are waiting for an opportunity in Hollywood. Although the hope of success is very slim, there are still countless people who come here one after another.
"No, there is basically no need to audition. This play requires the highest appearance for the actors, as long as they are eye-catching. A beautiful woman is constantly being killed and destroyed, so that she has the ability to attract people's attention."
"Did you invite me over just to have a cup of coffee? Boy, trust me, my "acting" is great and you will definitely be satisfied."
The beautiful neighbor said she put down the script, picked up the coffee and licked it lightly, then pulled up Wayne's belt, and slowly the two walked into the bedroom.
"Oh, maybe your "acting skills" will surprise me a lot."
Wayne murmured and followed her, of course he didn't mind what happened, after all the beautiful neighbors fit his aesthetic perfectly.
