"I don't like you, Mr. Williams." John · Aniston sitting across from Eric slightly stretched his face while taking her daughter to the bathroom.
Eric is somewhat speechless, and can only shrug: "Can I know why, John?"
John · Aniston said: "For so many years, Jenny has been hating me in my heart. I also feel guilty about the things of the year. I always hope that she can forgive me. She called me last night, do you know? She is The first time I took the initiative to call me, I almost jumped up with joy. As a result, my daughter's reason for calling was actually asking me to help her boyfriend, the guy who might have robbed my daughter. "
Okay, this reason is very strong. The saying that the daughter is the lover of the father previous life is not just talking. Usually, the relationship between father-in-law and son-in-law is not very good.
Eric can only shrug again, and the two men suddenly fell into an awkward silence.
Aniston soon returned from the bathroom and smiled while sitting next to Eric. The intimate appearance made John · Aniston even more uncomfortable. However, it is not easy for her daughter to take the initiative to reconcile, and he will not be stupid enough to attack on the spot.
Under the adjustment of Aniston’s, on the surface, the meal was quite enjoyable. John · Aniston just took the elder ’s shelf and dropped Eric a few words such as Gao Gaoyuan, the daughter ’s angry eyes were glared, and finally John · Aniston still promised to help Eric contact Actor as much as possible.
With the help of John and Aniston’s, who are very popular in the TV world, Eric quickly found Actor for most characters, and because John and Aniston mediate from it, the remuneration is not high, which makes Eric very relieved. .
Only Ma Wen of Dumb Thief, Eric was a little hesitant about the list of several candidates Actor until Aniston brought his classmates and friends to Eric and looked at the face with natural decay, just a little bit After trying the next shot, Eric was finalized, because this guy is called Matthew · Perry, one of the six groups of previous life 《Friends》.
Next, Eric flew several times to Canada with Jeffrey · Hansson, and finally found the shoots location of the Kevin family in a small town. It was busy day and night, making the Eric lose a few pounds in just one week. These Aniston are both distressed and envious.
October 17th, after the Eric rebirth, the first part Director work was officially launched in Los Angeles. The crew sent several people to the selected Canada town for the Kevin home set. Most people stayed at Los Angeles shoots airport, police department and the like do not need snow scenes. After all, after all, here is the world's largest movie base, shoots is much more convenient.
The whole crew, from lighting engineer to Actor, basically looked at money and Jeffrey · Hansson and John · Aniston’s face before they agreed to the movie's shoots. Although they have serious concerns about Eric, they are not without heart My own thoughts, in the words of Eric previous life: What if Firelight is not small?
They all already know the content of "Home Alone", and I am glad that this young and overdone Director did not make literary and filming like other young Directors, so I feel that the possibility of success of "Home Alone" is still relatively large. The cost of shoots of 1 million USD, relying on Eric now with the halo brought by "17 Again" and "Jurassic Park", may be able to make a small profit, and Eric may be promised when it is turned on. Extra dividends.
After all, it provides a job opportunity for the team left by his wife. Jeffrey · Hansson appeared on the crew every day after the film was started. Originally, Jeffrey wanted to use its many years of experience to be a "newbie" for Eric Provide some help. But one day later, Jeffrey began to doubt life directly. What a **** is really unfair.
Eric is completely free of the hassle of directing the movie for the first time. From the moment of turning on, he is like a Director with many years of experience in shoots, orderly discussing the placement of props with the set designer, using professional terms and photographers Discuss the next shot, direct the lighting engineer to produce the effect you want, and patiently give a play to the Actress who plays the mother of Kevin more than ten years old ...
Of course, when some of the shots shoots made mistakes in a row, they also showed the unique talent skills of the Director race: the roar of Director!
"Ms. Leslie, I want a puzzled expression, doubt, not curiosity! According to my observations, you must have some obsessive-compulsive disorder, then this expression should be easy for you. Imagine you lying down at night On the bed, I feel that the door may have forgotten to lock, the kitchen faucet may have been dripping, but you are not sure where is the problem, so you feel trapped in the mood of conflict, imagine these scenes. Oh, deserves death, we can only rent This plane is three hours, three hours, well, all personnel are ready to come again. Nickel, do you want to see the clouds in the sky through the titanium alloy ceiling of the plane, take me seriously, *! "
Due to the excellent performance of Eric before, everyone in the crew basically recognized the Director status of Eric in a short time. So when Ms. Leslie, who plays the mother of Kevin, was on the plane and remembered that the several shots where Kevin was forgotten at home repeatedly made mistakes, Eric caused anxiety because the shoots plan might be disrupted. Forgetting the age of Eric, it became chilly.
When the 30 multi-year-old photographer named Nickel · Frank was reprimanded by Eric, he completely forgot that the young man in front of him was an eighteen-year-old kid, and he subconsciously apologized: "Sorry, Director Williams, I will pay attention . "
After many years, Nickel · Frank, who won the Oscar Best Photography, stood on the podium of the Kodak Theater. The first sentence was to recall the scene at this time. He said: "At that moment, my subconscious mind, completely Treat Eric as an authoritative big Director, not an eighteen-year-old, as if he was born to lead the entire crew. "
After ng again, this lens finally passed, Eric also breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately regretted his previous gaffe, and took the initiative to apologize to Ms. Leslie: "Sorry, Leslie, my tone was just a little heavy . "
"It's okay, Director Williams, it's really me who did not do well, and it's me who should apologize. Speaking of which, the look you just got angry is actually quite charming."
"Er ..." Eric would like to remind her that this is a precursor to Stockholm syndrome and needs treatment.
In the next few days, Eric discovered that the members of the crew who had called him Eric unconsciously changed their titles and called ‘Director Williams’, even Jeffrey · Hansson. He knows that this is the performance of the Director completely recognized by the crew members from the bottom of his heart. Therefore, he directed the crew to become more capable, and it took only four days for the crew to complete the Los Angeles shot, and all turned into the Canada town.
The crew had sent several staff to set up the Kevin home. Although it was only conducted by telephone, Eric was very satisfied after seeing the apartment layout. At the same time, he also made up his mind that he must leave the wife of Jeffrey. The team was encircled under his command.
No one has ever made a movie in this town in the north of Canada, so the residents in the town are very enthusiastic and curious. Before Eric has come, many people have asked the staff sent by Eric Can you make some small roles? Moreover, because shoots is a Christmas scene, all residents in the town are actively dressing up their homes. The whole town seems to be celebrating Christmas in advance and is full of joy.
In the face of this, Eric certainly has to vote for Tao Li, and generously invited several children in the town to make guest appearances in the movie.
The main shoots in the town is the life of the small protagonist Kevin and the process of spoofing two thieves. As a pure Christmas comedy, the film does not need any connotation at all, it only needs to be funny. In addition, the performance of Stewart is much better than that of Macaulay · Culkin of previous life. The shoots process can only be described in terms of speed. Eric is determined to complete all the shoots of the lens within a week.
Another thing happened during Penny · Marshall, where Los Angeles was nervously performing the post-work of "17 Again". When Eric was needed to dub some of the shots in the movie, they suddenly found that they could not find Eric. When the phone was not answered, I went directly to Eric's house and the door was closed. This made Penny · Marshall even have some bad associations. When I was about to call the police, I learned the whereabouts of Eric through Aniston.
Penny · Marshall was a complaint on the phone, and Eric must be returned to Los Angeles within a week. In addition to the dubbing of the movie, the promotion of "17 Again" is also inseparable from Eric.
Of course, Eric was also exposed naturally in shoots "Home Alone". In this regard, Penny · Marshall is naturally like an elder, criticizing some words of Eric such as Gao Gaoyan, but also not paying too much attention to Eric movies. She does not feel the same as the staff in the Eric crew. This is just a nonsense work by a young man.
The Eric who fell into work is basically two people with reality. Although it is good to get along with the people in the crew, it is only the case. However, Matthew · Perry introduced by Aniston will be close to Eric from time to time, chatting or something. Eric was also very interested in Matthew · Perry. Unfortunately, the purpose of completing "Home Alone" in his heart was above all else. Of course, he didn't have the opportunity to get in touch with Matthew.
One week later, the movie was successful in the town. Because of the reasonable planning of Jeffrey · Hansson and Eric, it has only cost more than 600,000, and there are more than 30 and USD, which is more than enough to complete post-production.
So Eric generously opened a party in the town, and invited the crew and everyone in the town to party for the night. The next day, when many people were still in a hangover state, Eric had already taken the film completed by shoots and flew back to the Los Angeles flight.
It took half a day to complete the dubbing of "17 Again". Eric plunged into the late studio introduced by Jeffrey and started the crazy work.
In recent days, Eric basically worked for more than 16 hours a day, and it took only five days to complete the post-production work in the surprise of everyone. Because everything in my mind is readily available, Eric can complete everything so quickly. It took less than a day to edit all the shots perfectly, so that the editor who cooperated with him now looked at him with admiration.
In the morning five days later, a simple screening room with only five or six seats was crowded with more than a dozen people, most of whom were crew members of "Home Alone". Aniston also came to the Director of Eric specifically Female work.
With a slight hum of the projector, the film officially begins with a blue silhouette of a house under a hazy moonlight ...
