Chapter 765: I have a condition
With a bang, the faint sound of falling water came, and the crowd suddenly woke up and rushed toward the ship's side.
Seeing that the director jumped into the sea, not waiting for others to tell, several staff members who were hanging on the arm of the deck slideed down the safety rope.
There are hundreds of people on the scene. Eric doesn't worry about Cameron's safety. He just laughs and laughs. If he doesn't agree, he jumps into the sea. What is this?
Going to the side of the ship, Eric looked down on the guardrail. Cameron in the sea had seized the safety rope and was slowly hoisted with the help of several others.
William Stewart, who was scared and pale, saw Cameron safe and sigh of relief, only to notice that Eric stood not far from him, thinking about the situation, and quickly went forward to explain: "Ai Rick, I..."
Eric nodded to William Stewar and comforted: "Nothing, William, I just saw it, it's not your fault."
Hearing Eric's words, William Stewart let go of his heart, remembering the recent days of sorrow, some sadness, and intending to complain to Eric, Cameron has jumped onto the deck.
Still seemingly impetuous, I seem to want to see Eric in the Cameron contest with William Stewart. The evil momentum suddenly dissipated, completely ignoring the wet appearance, rushing over, just giving Eric had a hug and said: "Eric, you came just right, um..." looked around and noticed that everyone looked at him in a weird look, Cameron snarled: "All stay. What are you doing here, don't you need to work?"
Eric’s mouth was pumped and he waved at the crowd. Everyone suddenly made birds and beasts and returned to their jobs.
Cameron ignored these small details, took Eric to the bow, and called Leonardo and Rachel, and told them to pose, "Eric, you imagine, Jack and Ross stand on the bow of the Titanic, in the endless sea, under the magnificent sunset, facing the sea breeze, the kiss and the kiss, this will be a beautiful picture. To achieve this, you must install a tower crane..."
In the end, Cameron leaned heavily on the ship's side, and one arm lifted up and moved slowly, as if he were the imaginary tower crane.
Eric patiently listened to Cameron’s obvious konjac narrative. At the end, he asked, “Jim, it’s a waste of time to install the crane. Can’t use a helicopter?”
Cameron immediately shook his head: "No, no, the helicopter is too unstable, it must be a tower crane."
Eric leaned on the ship's side, looked up at the sky, recalled the scene in his memory, and smiled at the corner of his mouth. "Well, Jim, you should know why I suddenly appeared here. Now everyone is saying." The Titanic is out of control. Do you feel this way?"
Cameron’s face finally flashed a slight flaw, but then he said: “Eric, I know that this movie may not be completed as scheduled, but there is absolutely no loss of control. I am completely clear about what I am doing. Chu. Well, just the budget will be a little bit more. I think that the question of money will not be a problem for you. The most important thing you need now is money."
Eric watched the Cameron director's vest dripping down, and waved his hand, saying: "You still have to change clothes first, give me some time to think about how to refute you."
Cameron seemed to realize what he was proud of, laughing happily, and said to Jon Landau, who was next to him, "Jon, you should call now and let them prepare things as soon as possible."
After that, Cameron waved at Eric and walked quickly toward the ramp.
Looked at Cameron's back, and waiting for his figure to disappear, Jon Landau and William Stewart looked at Eric together, with enquiries in their eyes.
Eric nodded and said, "Just prepare for Jim's vision."
William Stewart still worried about his face and said: "But, Eric, it takes at least two days to delay, and many of the original shooting plans will be disrupted."
"It’s already messed up, and it’s not going to affect anything,” Eric said, looking at William Stewart and saying, “William, you can rest assured that this project is my own waywardness. No matter what the outcome will be in the future, it will not affect you."
Eric said this, William Stewart certainly no longer refutes. What he was most worried about is the budget overrun of Titanic and the fiasco of the box office. According to the usual practice, once this happens, his producer may Was fired. Since Eric gave such a promise at this time, he certainly would not continue to entangle what is uninteresting.
Sending Jon Landau and William Stewart together to prepare, Eric will make room out, and say hello to the hero and heroine who has been hanging out: "Lyon, Rachel, how does it feel to work with Jim?" ?"
Leonardo smiled somewhat cautiously. Rachel Vichy had a few faces with Eric. It was not so restrictive. He came to Eric and leaned on the guardrail. He said: "Jim usually It’s quite amiable, it’s too easy to get angry.”
Rachel said, looking at Kelly, who was standing not far away, asked: "Eric, Caroline didn't come over together?"
"No, take her to see you next time."
"Oh," Rachel nodded in a lost voice. She had been here for a few months in order to film this movie. She didn't even go back to Christmas, plus a director who could be thundering at any time, if not her. Naturally strong personality, many times, she even gave up.
Eric can also almost understand the emotions of Rachel, and comforted: "Work hard, come over this time, maybe you will be the big star that even the director must be careful."
Rachel smiled and said: "Oh, as long as you don't meet a director like Jim, you can."
Rachel just mentioned Cameron, the familiar figure on the ramp mouth ran back: "Hey, Eric, the shooting in the morning is definitely only here, come with me, I will take you to see Take a look at the results of the recent period."
Eric nodded, and said goodbye to Rachel and Leonardo, and left Camelon to the deck to the simple post studio in the studio.
In the original time and space, after seeing the Titanic, many ordinary people often have doubts about it as a special effect movie. Because many people’s impressions, the scenes in the movie are basically things that exist in reality. Compared with the standard special effects films such as Jurassic Park, Star Wars, and Black Man, there seems to be no 'special effects' scene in Titanic.
But the fact is not the case at all. In the whole movie, the sky and sky in the night, the heat that is small in people's mouth, is basically composed of special effects technology or special effects lenses, and it does not exist in reality. The scenes of aliens, spaceships, etc., want to present the real existence in reality in the form of CG special effects, but the difficulty is even greater, because the scenes of aliens, spaceships, etc., as long as they are approximated, people are Can't tell the truth, because no one has ever seen it in reality, but if the real scene is not detailed enough, it will be easily distinguished.
Because it is necessary to temporarily install the tower crane needed by Cameron, it is impossible to reschedule the shooting for the remaining hour in the morning. Eric will be taken to the post-production studio by Cameron to see the lens material he has completed recently. .
Except for a small amount of footage, which is completely live shooting, most of the footage can be seen in the green screen, and even a shot in the first class of the Titanic luxury first class, except for the details of the table and chair bench and tableware, all around Surrounded by green screens, you can imagine how much work you need to make all of these materials into a movie scene.
"Eric, I assure you that as long as I am no longer constrained by the funds, I can finish the shooting in three months, and the post-work can be done at the same time. In addition to the main scene, I can divide some small special effects work. After the package, Jon has recently started to contact the special effects studio. Moreover, the rendering farm in the digital field can greatly shorten the post-production progress of the special effects. Probably, well, before August, I can guarantee to complete all the work."
At noon, a group of people gathered in the restaurant to talk about the progress of the film production, Cameron once again vowed to guarantee, anyway, ah, make a vow, and do not want money.
After feeling Eric’s support for the project, Cameron’s promise of no-frills was almost open, and he couldn’t help but beside Jon Landau, William Stewart and even Rachel. Stayed and rolled his eyes.
Eric smiled and cut the steak in front of him. He said to Cameron: "In August, the summer file is definitely not a play. I just hope that you won’t be able to finish the movie until the end of the year. Jim, this is definitely me. The bottom line, you have to know, fireflies are not just me alone."
"Of course," Cameron nodded immediately, and looked at William Stewart, who was sitting not far away. "But, Eric, I have a condition."
"Ok?"
"I don't think William doesn't have to waste time here. Jon plus a few other production assistants is almost enough."
Eric shook his head and said: "This can't be done, Jim, William must stay here."
Just kidding, if you don’t even have a little elbow, this guy is not completely out of play.
Although Eric supports the film to continue shooting, but will never let Cameron completely unrestrained squandering, otherwise, it is estimated that 300 million US dollars is not enough for him to spend.
Cameron did not deliberately suppress the voice of the speech, heard the conversation between the two, William Stewart looked at Eric's eyes with the hope, although Cameron wants to drive away his ideas is very unpleasant But if possible, he definitely does not want to stay here.
Rejecting Cameron’s request and eating lunch, Eric suddenly remembered another thing. He said to Cameron and Jon Landau: "Yes, there is one more thing, this movie. Shooting props, I hope to be able to keep it intact."
Several people have revealed an incomprehensible look, Jon Landau said: "Eric, it seems that there is no need, there are not many films in Hollywood in the 1920s and 1930s, and most of the props are not likely to be reused. Moreover, I have already consulted with a local factory. At the end of the filming, I can sell the big ship model to them, so that I can withdraw some funds for the post production of the film."
Although it is planned to use a lot of special effects technology, the fineness of the details in the film still reaches a point of horrible. The entire movie costs millions of dollars in tens of thousands of pieces of clothing, cutlery, bags and other items, not to mention the big ship model made entirely in a one-to-one ratio.
In the original time and space, after the miraculous success of the Titanic, just by virtue of the "Titanic" props roving exhibition, the producers once again harvested hundreds of millions of dollars in ticket sales. Although Eric did not dare to be 100% sure that the "Titanic" of this world can achieve the original success, but since there is such a possibility, Eric will not let go of this opportunity to make money.
When I heard that Jon Landau had planned to sell the big ship model, Eric quickly shook his head: "No need, in my opinion, this ship is still very memorable, and later, the fireflies will inevitably have some with the ocean. Related movies may use these props. Well, this studio can even be completely preserved as a photography base for filming marine movies."
See Eric insists that everyone will certainly not object. After a simple negotiation, he even decided to build a warehouse in the base specifically for the preservation of the Titanic props.
Since it came, Eric did not rush to leave, but stayed on the studio to observe the filming process of Cameron. Although some of the lenses on the bow were temporarily stranded because of the need to install the tower crane, the crew quickly arranged other scenes. Shooting.
After the budget pressure was resolved, Cameron seemed to be less violent. At least, for the next two days, Eric did not hear Cameron’s growl.
However, although the interior of the Rosarito studio has returned to calm, the outside world has become more lively.
Because although the password was made immediately after the incident, but after all, there were a lot of people in the studio, and the password did not have much effect. Cameron’s jump into the sea was on the second day. Headline.
