Ashley's suggestion was not only approved by Xia Yu, but after communicating with Zhuang Ling and James, they also thought the suggestion was very good.
Two films, two films shot continuously, can maintain the state of the actors and the quality of the film to the maximum extent - the rest time in the middle is lengthened, one is beneficial to the crew, the other is good for the actors, they can also better arrange these three
Specific plans for the month!
Besides, one month is normal for making a movie, five months is normal too...
When the "Twilight" crew was notified of this incident the next day, a major earthquake was inevitable - the entire crew held an all-staff meeting in the auditorium of Fox High School, and the entire meeting was chaired by the fake set tyrant James.
"I know that this decision will definitely offend some staff and actors' schedules - I, and the official staff of the "Twilight" crew I represent, apologize, but the filming of "Twilight 2" has been done in advance.
The result of careful consideration..."
"Since there are only thirty-one scenes left before the filming of "Twilight 1" is completed, and it may be completed by the end of the month, I hope everyone can give me a reply within one day. Now there is a schedule list issued by Lifestyle Production, and everyone needs it
Fill it out within one day!”
"I'm not trying to embarrass everyone - but the main actors are not included in the schedule. Therefore, if the main actors have other schedules, you can negotiate with me about the shooting schedule. I will try my best to help everyone adjust their schedule.
"
"There are advantages and disadvantages to shooting in advance, but the best thing for everyone is to be able to maintain the current enthusiasm, and - after the shooting is completed, until mid-September, there will be at least three months of vacation."
"The most important thing is that because the "Twilight" crew is responsible for decision-making at this time - therefore, the actors' remuneration will be increased by another 10% on the basis of the original guarantee. The remaining staff members will receive the original remuneration.
On the basis of some, an increase of 30% is the greatest sincerity our "Twilight" crew gives to everyone!"
Different from the actors' final salary of 200%, the staff of various organizations only increased by 50%, and this time, an increase of 30% means a direct increase to 80%.
Moreover, this is not just "Twilight" 1 and 2, but also the subsequent ones, which is equivalent to the fact that the entire "Twilight Series" has been filmed, and the entire crew, even the lowest level, is enough for them.
Been splurging for a while.
If they live a normal life, it is equivalent to the salary they can earn in three years.
"Twilight Series" 1 and 2 consecutive shootings are undoubtedly novel and caused an uproar among the crew. The staff are okay, they are packaged, but they are complaining, because compared to the actors, they have to work in three shifts, which is already far better than others.
The crew worked twice as hard.
Originally scheduled for three months, it has now been extended to five months. I have to say that this is a huge physical and mental test!
But a 30% salary increase, as long as you bite the bullet and stick to it for another two and a half months - it doesn't seem impossible?
As for the actors, extras, and minor supporting roles, there are definitely no problems. If there are any problems, they have already been screened out at the very beginning.
Those who stay are basically doing it to get ahead and earn an extra penny. Even if they return to Los Angeles or other places, they still need to find another crew to audition to see if there is a chance to play an important supporting role.
This saves all the effort.
And what kind of good crew can we meet in a month? Most of the staff can only rest.
Why not agree?
During the three-month vacation, maybe I can still meet a satisfactory crew and script?
Moreover, I really learned a lot of useful knowledge from the "Twilight" crew and gained a lot of network resources.
After all, they all worked together through "hard work". Compared with other crews, this crew has a stronger "human touch".
The most important thing is the group of actors led by Antonio - it's not that they disagree, it's because of schedule conflicts.
After careful consideration and the success of "Twilight", which has won the top spot on the New York Times bestseller list for the fourth consecutive week, they have more confidence in the movie "Twilight" - this movie
The movie will definitely be a hit!
Those who could extend the schedule were postponed, and those who could arrange tasks according to the current period were arranged. It was really not possible - there was no other way but to cut off some of them, but in the end no one was willing to leave.
As soon as this result came out, Ashley breathed a sigh of relief. In the next half month, "Twilight" entered the filming of the last dozens of scenes.
James, while arranging the schedule of the staff and actors for the next filming of "Twilight 2" for the entire crew.
Of course, when filming the scene of vampire tracker James, James couldn't help but complain.
"Oh, God, it makes me so uncomfortable just to think that I have the same name as this scumbag—"
But that's all.
no way.
The degree of duplication of surnames and names in beautiful countries or Europe and the United States is too high. There are hundreds of thousands or tens of thousands of people named James, if not one million?
After the plot of Hunter James, "Twilight 1" finally came to the end of filming.
On March 29th, in the afternoon and evening, there had just been a light rain, and the ground was still wet - or in other words, the weather in Fox Town has never stopped raining in the past few days? It was a little cooler, and the temperature difference between morning and evening
It's also a bit big.
"Twilight 1" was put into production in mid-January, and it has been exactly two and a half months now. The shooting time has gone from eight hours a day at the beginning to 12 or 16 hours a day. This movie has finally ushered in its release date.
end.
The last scene filmed today was a banquet held at Fox High School at the end of the semester. It was also a meeting between Isabella Swann after she was almost "eaten" by a vampire, but had her leg broken and recovered.
There is no such banquet in the original "Twilight", but a stalemate quarrel - which is also the beginning of "Twilight 2".
In order to give "Twilight 1" a seemingly perfect resolution, the stalemate and quarrel between humans and vampires, Bella and Edward Cullen, and Edward's departure were all placed at the beginning of "Twilight 2".
In any case, the final work is being prepared for the last scene of "Twilight 1".
Of course, Xia Yu didn't feel any pressure. She changed her clothes and let the stylist play with the look——
As for the cast on the leg, it has also been put on.
Antonio, on the other hand, was very nervous and sat downstairs with the script in his hand.
He had memorized it by heart, but when he was nervous, he would easily forget his words, especially when he was acting opposite Gen Xia Yu. Even if Xia Yu didn't deliberately suppress him, he would inevitably feel a pressure in his heart!
It was about time. Ashley had finished telling the actors about the scene and announced:
"Antonio, you and Locke can be in the camera."
At the same time, all the crew members were ready, and each team member reported that there were no mistakes. Ashley checked the monitor again and made final adjustments.
