Reborn Hollywood Ladies

Chapter 534

Filming officially started three days later.Lila took Rob by her side and gave him a lot of power.He did a good job in the original version of the previous life. Although there are many gaps due to lack of experience, he can still grasp the macroscopically.

This time, Laila assigned most of the rights to him. Basically, she didn't care about the singing and dancing, and was only in charge of the filming.To put it simply, Rob collects the thread and she weaves it into cloth.

She knows her own affairs, she doesn't know much about musicals, that is, she did some in-depth analysis when studying movies in her previous life.Asking her to organize rehearsals would be a joke.So she brought Rob back, and he handled the singing and dancing, and she just needed to tell the story with the camera.

At this time, it showed the power of Rob Marshall.The perennial Broadway career has not exhausted his inspiration. When rehearsing the song and dance part, the burst of light can be clearly felt through the lens.

But at the same time, he also has his shortcomings.That is, what he sees is the stage, not the big screen where the movie will appear.In other words, according to his method, he just recorded a song and dance and showed it to the audience, instead of telling the story to everyone in the form of a film.

It cannot be denied that it was really interesting for him to shoot like that, but the reason why he only got one nomination for best director but didn't get a statuette, isn't it also the reason here?At least Leila believed that this was the problem in her later studies.

"Rob, that's not okay." Laila called him to her side and showed him the shot just taken: "Where is the focal point?"

"You have to remember that the Broadway audience needs to sit and watch, but the camera can move. You have to show what you are most proud of, and you don't need to focus on one focal point. My lens will capture them all. , do you understand me?"

Leila discovered this little characteristic of him when he first started filming the first singing and dancing scene.She didn't know if she should remind him, but she thought that might have something to do with the reason "Chicago" was nominated for 10 Oscars and only won three.The best of the three awards is just a Best Supporting Actress award, doesn't it just explain the problem of the film?
The producers hope to shoot "Chicago" at a higher level than "Moulin Rouge". If it is shot in Rob's way, the final result will be three awards, just one more than "Moulin Rouge". .But if she stepped in and modified it according to her own ideas, it might create a better effect, or it might make the whole movie collapse.

In the first few days, she refrained from expressing her point of view, because she was afraid that the film would be destroyed if she intervened, and she would not even win an award in the end.But after a few days of filming, she discovered that this is not going to work!She clearly saw something she didn't like but still filmed it without saying a word. Could the film she made still be her own work?

That's right, she took advantage of some of the afterlife experience brought about by her rebirth.Similarly, she also learned a lot of things that were impossible to get in touch with in the shooting of a movie.Take some of the movies she made before as an example. She is confident that she made them more beautiful and perfect than the original ones.Then why didn't she go all out and let more of her own characteristics be integrated into the movie?
Now she's the director and it's her movie too!Now that she has been given a chance, is she really going to give up because of some unproven concerns?

After a few days of ideological struggle, she still made a choice. Maybe this choice made her take a lot of risks, but she thought it was her own experience. Once she crossed this limit, her ability would have a big impact promote!

That's why she called Rob to let him see his shortcomings and modify them in her way!
Without Lila's reminder, it would have been a long time before Rob would have discovered his inadequacy.He does have a solid Broadway foundation, because of this foundation he got the current position of assistant director, and because of this, his thoughts are still imprisoned on the stage, and he will always subconsciously focus on that stage instead of The vast place in front of the camera.

After watching some of the filmed clips, Rob was a little hard to accept: "Yes, you are right. This doesn't look like a movie, it's just a rebroadcast of a Broadway opera..." Maybe he is not suitable to be a director at all, maybe He thought too much of himself before?

It's good to know her own situation, and Laila breathed a sigh of relief.She was originally worried that he would not be able to see his shortcomings, or that he would not think there was any problem when he saw them, thinking that she was looking for trouble.Now that he can see the situation clearly, he can make a difference!
"I'm not actually saying the staging is bad. Need it? Of course it needs to. But it's more about getting the audience to understand that it's a movie." Not a Broadway broadcast of the opera.

Rob nodded thoughtfully: "I'll think about it."

Laila also knew that it was impossible for him to change his habits instantly, and it would take some excessive time.She was not in a hurry, so she took the shots without singing and dancing first.

I said before that "Chicago" has a stronger storyline than "Moulin Rouge". There are some mockery and conflicts about various injustices in it, which makes the story more in-depth.

If a musical film wants to tell a story, not only the singing and dancing needs to show the plot, but also the connection between the singing and dancing.The script was written by Rob, and Leila added some of her own ideas to it.She has the memory of the future, and she has carefully studied almost every famous or Oscar-winning movie.

So she knows the impact of the film after its release, but also the flaws and inadequacies.All she has to do is to fix the broken place before the sheep die.

Rob disappeared for a week after being reminded by her.A week later, early in the morning, he appeared in front of her with a disheveled hair and a scruffy beard.

"I have some ideas." He said while taking out some simple drawings.

The characters on the drawing show that he belongs to the school of soul painters, but it doesn't matter, as long as it can be seen that he is drawing people.

Laila took the drawing and listened to his explanation while looking at it.

"...So I plan to make the frame bigger, and I will use more space for dance rehearsal." Rob said briefly.

Laila said at the beginning that he didn't know much about singing and dancing, and he belonged to the kind of layman watching the show, so he didn't use more professional language to explain in detail, but just told her his thoughts and let her name her own. Ideas will do.
