Thomson's name is in two movies released on May 15th.
In fact, there are two directors in "The Truman Show."
One director is Freese and the other director is Thomson.
The selection, formation, lighting and scene layout of the entire crew were all completed by Thomson.
later……
Thomson gave up the film and made Dawn, which he wrote and directed.
The follow-up work of "The Truman Show" was handed over to Forrest...
So the main director position is Forrest, and Thomson also occupies a position as assistant director.
Thomson looked at his name on the promotional poster for "The Truman Show."
He lowered his head and then glanced at the promotional poster for "Dawn".
He felt his heart begin to heat up...
Once, he thought he was pursuing high box office and record breaking!
but……
Since the release of "Star Wars", which broke the record for science fiction films, he found that what he pursued had unknowingly changed.
What does it mean to be “remotely” yourself?
What exactly is it?
He asked himself this question more than once.
Although I succeeded by relying on the script given to me by my boss, is this success really successful?
The boss’s brilliance is so great, no one in this world can compare with the boss!
If you really want to prove your worth, you can only do it without the help of your boss.
later……
In this reflection...
There is "Dawn"!
"Now, the time has come!"
"come on!"
These two sentences flashed through Thomson's mind, and then he walked into the screening room of "Dawn".
…………………………
The major theater chains have not scheduled a large number of "The Truman Show" films, accounting for only about 20%.
after all……
"Titanic" and "La La Land" are still popular.
Of course, although people all over the world know that this is a movie sponsored by advertising, the theaters in movie theaters around the world are full...
Many fans of Lu Yuan, including most movie fans, came to watch "The Truman Show".
Everyone knows one purpose, which is to see how Lu Yuan's script can use so many advertising sponsorships!
Um……
It also includes many directors.
Duncan is one of them.
Although "God of the Sun" was a lie, although Duncan really hated Lu Yuan, he felt like he was being stepped on and rubbed by Lu Yuan all the time.
but……
Still the same sentence.
Curiosity killed the cat.
How could he be so good at such an advertising movie?
How can he play?
………………………………
"Is the world we live in really the world we know?"
"Is there someone outside the world who is watching us?"
"Is...we are all characters in a movie?"
"..."
The movie "The Truman Show" surprised everyone from the very beginning!
They heard a familiar voice.
This voice seems to be...
Lu Yuan's voice?
etc!
Is this the beginning?
What about the conventional ads?
Fans who had not seen the "remote" exclusive brainwashing advertisement were a little confused at first, and they were really uncomfortable for a while.
"The Truman Show" is unlike any other movie released remotely.
Other movies start with a series of random commercials and then the real feature film.
but……
At the beginning of "The Truman Show", except for "Remote" Entertainment, there are no advertisements. It seems that the advertisements have been cut...
What is this for?
Smith, the boss of Paimon Company, immediately felt strange after seeing this abnormal setting.
With so many advertising sponsorships, shouldn’t there be a lot of advertising at the beginning and end of the film to relieve the pressure?
What on earth is he going to play?
Just when Smith was at a loss, suddenly...
Without warning!
"We are tired of seeing the hypocritical expressions while watching the show."
"Tired of seeing fancy stunts."
"The Truman Show can be said to be fake."
"Truman himself is not fake at all."
"This show has no script and no scene..."
"..."
"..."
When, the screen switches to a person...
There was a scream in the cinema, and the screams came one after another.
In the picture, a young man faced the camera and said these words!
Everyone looked at this young man as if he was seeing a ghost!
Subconsciously, they lowered their heads to search for the starring cast members of "The Truman Show", but unfortunately, they did not see this young man's name in the starring list...
This young man's name is Lu Yuan.
This surprise made everyone so happy!
Instantly, they felt that the movie tickets for "The Truman Show" were worth their weight in gold.
…………………………
"I can't stand it anymore..."
After Lu Yuan finished speaking, there was a long and narrow sound of music.
Caught off guard, the logo of the "umbrella" insurance company and the logo of "remote" food delivery appeared...
Immediately afterwards...
Everyone saw a familiar face in the camera.
This person seems to be Wayne, the male protagonist in "Crackling Drummer"?
Bi Truman, plays Bi Truman.
When this font suddenly appeared on the screen, everyone was suddenly at a loss.
What's the meaning?
Wayne changed his name?
Changed his name to Beethoven?
Don’t understand!
"Brother...how can you do that?"
"Even if you stumble, you still have to climb to the top of the mountain!"
"..."
In the lens.
Keep up the music...
The male protagonist uttered such a sentence...
Then……
"Live action is my whole life!"
After the male protagonist finished speaking, a smiling female protagonist who seemed to be being interviewed suddenly said this.
Then, after another man said something again, all the movie fans suddenly realized.
This movie seems like a show within a movie?
Wayne is an actor named Beethoven in the movie, and the character he plays is Beethoven?
Then, there was another burst of words that the Goddess Truman said in the camera. After finishing speaking, everyone saw a line of words.
The 10909th broadcast day...
After this line of words, another line of words appeared.
Fully sponsored by "Remote Takeout", "Remote Takeout" is your conscience partner!
"Pfft!"
"Fuck!"
"Is product placement coming now? It's okay, it's not too blunt..."
"That's right..."
…………………………
"Good morning!"
"Good morning!"
"If I can't see you again, I wish you good morning! Good afternoon! Good night..."
After a while of the protagonist's voice greeting the neighbors, the main film of "The Truman Show" finally begins!
Then, some American movie fans suddenly found that "The Truman Show" was very familiar to them.
Familiar streets, familiar billboards, familiar street lights, familiar pedestrians...
Everyone was stunned.
Isn’t this Los Angeles? When was this filmed?
Is "The Truman Show" a documentary?
The American audience was stunned for a while, and then, invisibly, there seemed to be a sense of empathy...
later……
Fans unfamiliar with Los Angeles saw a familiar scene...
People saw where the hero went to work.
An insurance company, and the name of this insurance company is "Umbrella" Insurance Company!
"Hahaha, Mr. Lu Yuan is simply a genius!"
"He is a true master of cinema!"
"Have you seen it? This is our company's product placement in the movie, but can you tell it's product placement? Hahaha..."
"..."
In a movie theater in the United States.
Alvin, the biggest sponsor of "The Truman Show", and fifty of his rich second-generation friends rented out the screening room of a movie theater.
Then, the entire screening room echoed with Alvin's uncontrollable laughter and wild laughter...
He originally thought his product placement would be blunt.
But now...
It doesn’t feel stiff at all!
"Wow, I also saw it. The toothpaste Truman uses is our toothpaste. The trademark is very obvious under the camera. At the same time, the effect after brushing the teeth is quite good, hahaha..."
"And me, the printer in this office is also ours. Truman also specially praised it. The Philip printer is really easy to use. It is indeed the world's top office brand. Hahaha... I am so satisfied!"
"..."
"..."
There was a burst of laughter in the screening room.
It seems like a carnival of a group of advertising sponsors!
Of course, the rich second generation who have not seen their own advertisements are not in a hurry. They are watching the movie and looking at this scene expectantly...
……………………
Advertising movie.
In the movie category, it means a movie with a bad reputation and a movie that is eye-catching.
but……
"The Truman Show" is not such a movie.
"The Truman Show" has constructed a huge, jaw-dropping reality show!
Then, the plot seems to be hypnotic, and every scene with product placement seems to tell you and hint you one thing, that is, this movie is reality, a documentary, a record of the growth of a baby.
Life documentary!
Then, every scene in the movie is real!
When you go to Los Angeles, you can see familiar street scenes from movies. When you go to the town of Los Angeles, you can see the town in "The Truman Show"...
certainly……
Many ad placements look extremely stiff!
for example……
Truman stood in front of a billboard called "Ovi Furniture" and greeted familiar people in a non-nutritious manner...
After standing there for thirty seconds, the billboard of "Ovi Furniture" kept dangling in front of the movie fans' eyes.
This looks tough.
However, when you really combine it with this movie, you suddenly find that it is not hard anymore.
Why?
Product placement is what the script needs!
"The Truman Show" itself is a reality show movie, and this reality show movie is a movie that mainly makes money from advertising!
All this...
It’s all plot, it’s all part of the movie!
The blunt product placement actually makes the sense of substitution even more explosive!
"Oh God!"
"How on earth did he come up with this script!"
"This person really made the script work! I'm actually...a little scared..."
"Oh my god, this plot..."
"..."
In the cinema, there were waves of inexplicable exclamations.
"He is a master of film and screenwriting!"
"He redefined advertising cinema!"
"..."
Then, a fanatic suddenly stood up and couldn't help but say this!
Then, as if a little embarrassed, he subconsciously sat back down.
After being amazed, everyone was attracted by the next plot of the movie.
Some film critics even realized that this movie might be a very meaningful and even worth recalling!
On the screen...
When the protagonist realizes that his world seems weird, everyone's hearts begin to tremble along with the protagonist in the movie!
"The Truman Show" officially wins the climax!
(The second update is here, there may be a third update today!)
