I saw that director Alan Aikush had slipped to the ground, leaning on the director's chair with his long neck, his face was pale, his eyes were closed, and he looked exhausted.
"Alan, Alan!" "Twin" Joe Dante screamed in fright, ran to the director, and reached out to grab the director, "What's wrong with you, Alan?"
Ronald stepped forward and hugged Joe. "Don't touch him. We don't know what disease the director has yet. This may aggravate the condition. I have learned first aid, let me take a look."
After handing Joe over to Jim who was running over, Ronald stepped forward to support the director who was leaning on the ground and began to check the situation. He put his fingers under his nose. Fortunately, there was weak but continuous breathing, and he touched the neck.
There was also a pulse in the artery. Ronald breathed a sigh of relief.
"Jenny, Jenny! Come here and help me." Jenny, the scene recorder, ran over, "Here, help me hold his head with both hands." Seeing Jenny holding him up, Ronald stood up, moved the director's chair away, and then took over Jenny's hand.
Director Allen lay flat on the ground. He unbuttoned his shirt, opened his mouth and took a look. Fortunately, there was no vomit.
Reassured, it was okay. Ronald stood up, took off his jacket, folded it in half, and put it under the director's neck to keep his head open.
"There is no problem with the pulse and breathing. He may have fainted from overexertion." Ronald announced to everyone who gathered around him, "Please don't gather in a circle. Please stay 10 feet away to allow the director to maintain ventilation! Thank you.
"
After persuading everyone to leave, Ronald discussed with the twins Joe Dante, field recorder Jenny, and assistant Jim who were standing in the inner circle.
"I'm going to call 911. It's not convenient for the director to move now. I'll take care of him here. Joe can continue..."
"No, no, don't call 911." Twin Joe Dante seemed to have come to his senses, "Don't call 911, let's drive him to the hospital."
"Huh? Aren't you members of the Directors Guild (DGA)? Do you pay medical insurance?"
"It's not a matter of insurance...Anyway, you listen to me and we will deliver it ourselves."
Ronald exchanged looks with Jim, Jenny and others, "Okay, since you said so, I'll go get the car in."
Joe Dante took his car keys out of his trouser pocket and handed them to Ronald, "Silver Ford Grenada."
I ran out of the high school quickly. There were many cars parked in the parking lot at the entrance. At first glance, I couldn't find where the cars were parked.
"Hi, Ronnie." A man stuck his head out of the window of the crew's van, "Where are you going in a hurry?" It was the crew's driver, Chris.
That's right, the driver of the production crew is parked here during the day to look at the van. He has nothing to do. Why not let him drive the van out, otherwise the director's height of nearly two meters will not be easy to use.
"Just in time, hurry up, drive the van in, the director has fainted, we have to send him to the hospital."
The driver, Chris, quickly put down the Penthouse magazine in his hand and started the Chevrolet van he was sitting in. Ronnie climbed into the passenger seat and said, "Joe asked us to take director Allen to the hospital. You and I will take the hard trip."
The Chevrolet van drove into the school and stopped next to the camera with a screeching sound. Ronald jumped out of the van, opened the back door of the van, "get in from here" and then jumped into the car, catching the director's head inside, and the
The assistant director held director Allen's feet and said, "One, two, three!" The two of them worked together to move the director to the ground in the back of the van.
The assistant director stayed in the car to take care of Alan.
Ronald jumped out of the car and closed the rear door. "Where is Joe?" he asked the director of photography, "I'll give him the keys back."
"Here I am, Joe Dante's voice comes from the front of the car."
Ronald handed the key to Joe, and Joe Dante nodded to him, opened the passenger door, and was about to get in.
"No, how can we take pictures if you go?" Ronald was stunned.
"I have to send him to the hospital. The assistant director will go with me. You and Dean will seize the time of the magic light and finish shooting these scenes according to your storyboards. Then call the boss and he will arrange it."
Qiao looked at the director of photography next to him, "Dean, is it okay?"
The director of photography nodded and made an OK gesture. The assistant director got in the car, the Chevrolet van turned around and drove towards the school gate.
Ronald shouted towards the van: "Wait, which hospital are you going to?"
"Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Beverly Hills..." Joe's voice floated over.
Ronald had not yet reacted to this magical operation. Jim patted Ronnie on the shoulder, "Hey, you heard me, Joe Dante trusts your storyboards. I just said it."
, your drawing is so specific, just find someone to take photos according to your storyboard."
Ronald looked at Jim, unable to tell him the truth.
He picked up the electric horn and started shouting to the extras: "Everyone, let's continue filming. Reset, each group resets, and we'll do it again right away."
Then he ran behind the camera and asked the director of photography: "Mr. Condi, how long can we take pictures with this magic light?"
"You can still take one shot before sunrise. You can probably take two shots after sunrise."
He turned back to Jim and said: "Quick, I want 10-1, you keep an eye on it first." After saying that, he quickly ran into the teaching building.
On the set, 10-1 was the code to go to the bathroom. Ronald rushed all the way to the bathroom. He faced the bathroom mirror, turned on the faucet, held cold water in his hands and splashed his face.
"Ronald, you can do it!"
"This is an opportunity, you can definitely seize it."
"As soon as the filming is completed, the boss, Mr. Roger Coleman, will add your name to the subtitles."
Ronald made a few self-suggestions. He wiped his face with his hands, and there were still water drops on his eyebrows and beard, and ran out of the teaching building.
All the extras have been reset. Dai Yang, who plays the role of the good girl, stands in front of the science club's welcome stage, and the actors of the rugby team and freshmen have also taken their positions.
Ronald walked up to Dai Yang and smiled: "Dai, we need one more piece to ensure there is enough film for editing. What do you think of your performance?"
Dai Yang, who was wearing a pair of big black-rimmed glasses, didn't know how to answer this question, "Well, I think the protagonist Kate is a good girl. She will be a little overwhelmed when she meets the bully freshman on the rugby team, so I
Mainly play this emotion."
"Very good, you did a good job. Besides, Kate, unlike the girls on the cheerleading team, doesn't usually socialize with the stars of the football team, so I thought maybe she would take a step back and stay away from these muscle sticks.
What do you think?"
"Wow, I didn't know you knew acting Ronnie. You're right."
"No, I was just on the sports team in high school. I also wanted to date a top student like Kate, but they all avoided me."
"Hahaha……"
Ronald directed Dai Yang according to the finished film he dreamed of.
Seeing Dai Yang relax, Ronnie walked back and asked the director of photography: "Mr. Candy, what do you think? Can we start?"
"No problem, you give the order."
"Everyone, please pay attention, we will start the official filming."
Jenny started to write again, "127 scenes, first shot, second shot..."
Ronald picked up the electric horn: "Recording...camera..."
"Action!"
Maybe it was a new acting method, maybe the group of actors were more proficient after the last performance. Ronald felt that this shot was better than Allen's. He looked at the director of photography, Dean Candy: "The effect
how?"
"Very good, you can pass this one."
"Jim, Mr. Candy said it's OK. This and the previous article should be printed."
"Ok, no problem."
After Ronald was promoted to interim director, Jim also took over the job of first assistant director. At the end of the two lines in the shooting log, he marked the words "Develop".
The film used for shooting is a negative film. After it is developed, it must be reprinted into a positive film before it can be viewed. In order to save costs, the director will generally instruct which shots need to be kept and which ones should be discarded.
