Hollywood Road

Ask for a recommendation ticket! Two changes today, it will be on the shelves after 12 noon tomorrow!

In the last few days of filming, Murphy had already kept Bill Rossis busy contacting the appropriate post-production studio. The last one was used, it took three weeks to use it, but what he wanted to hurry up was time. Now five It’s the end of the month, post-production takes time, and it takes time to find a suitable distributor. If you wait and waste some time with the distributor, I am afraid that even if the film enters the theater, it will be approaching September.

Even after September, the film market will have a long buffer time to recover. For movies like "Chain Saw", the buffer time is bound to be longer.

On a street near Santa Monica in West Hollywood, Murphy and Jody Griffith, accompanied by Bill Rossis, walked into a five-story building and took the elevator directly to the top floor. After finding the person in charge, under his leadership, he made a circle around the fifth floor.

This is a post-production studio owned by an advertising company and is often rented out to film companies to produce films.

"How is it?" Bill Rossis asked Murphy. Murphy looked at the Da Vinci color palette in front of him and nodded in satisfaction, "Not bad."

I have seen two studios in other places before, but they are not very satisfying. The main point is the lack of a Da Vinci color palette.

Quite a lot of Murphy's lenses were shot in sufficient light, but the requirements for the film are dark colors. The Da Vinci color palette is an indispensable equipment for post-production.

The Da Vinci color grading system has been hailed as the standard of post-production since its inception. The film staff using Da Vinci color grading are spread all over the world, and can be seen in many movies, commercials, documentaries, TV shows and music and television productions. Reached the figure of Vinci color, and its finished effect is unmatched by other color correction systems.

Correspondingly, the price of this system is very expensive, ranging from hundreds of thousands of dollars to millions of dollars, and it has no other purpose except color correction. Even in Hollywood, which is rich in wealth, some post-production studios also It is not necessarily equipped with a Da Vinci color palette.

In addition, this studio is also equipped with a hardware and software processor produced by Autodesk, which can be specially used to process 35MM film image synthesis, modification and finishing work, although it is far inferior to the future equipped with high-intelligence digital technology software The blade server is advanced, but in the post-production of this era, it is definitely synonymous with efficiency.

Now that digital technology is just emerging, film post-production is not as comprehensive as it is ten years later.

In the last room of this studio, Murphy also saw telecine equipment, which is relatively rare in this era, which can convert the content shot with film into computer digital signals that are easy to store.

Unfortunately, this device is of little use to him.

At least until now, Murphy has no idea of ​​using digital technology, and film is his first choice.

"When will Stanton Studios have such a post-production room?"

After the two parties negotiated the rental cost for a month, Murphy had some feelings when he took the elevator downstairs. "Instead of looking for a rental after every filming, it depends on other people's time."

"For the time being, you don't need to think about it!" Jody Griffith patted his arm and raised his finger upstairs. "The equipment of this studio is not top-notch in the industry, but if it is to be established, at least One million dollars too."

Murphy shrugged and said nothing more. Don't think about this kind of thing in the short term.

When the elevator reached the ground floor, Bill Rossis took the lead to go out. When he left the building, he handed the lease contract to Murphy and reminded him, "If it can't be completed within the lease time, you must greet me in advance. "

"Don't worry." Murphy accepted the contract and stuffed it into his briefcase. "I will never forget this kind of thing."

The rental cost for just one month is as high as 50,000 US dollars. For Murphy now, anything related to money is a big deal.

The three of them walked to their respective cars. Just as Murphy was about to pull the car door, Bill Rossis got out of his car behind him.

"Murphy!" He beckoned here.

Murphy closed the opened car door and looked back at him, "Is there anything else?"

Bill Rossis took two steps forward and came to the Ford car, "I helped Carrie finish the withdrawal procedure yesterday."

"Yeah." Murphy nodded.

He knew about this, and Kerry Mulligan called as soon as he finished the formalities.

"Bill..." Murphy said, remembering the phone call yesterday, "I told Carrey, and she agreed, you'd better help her contact a suitable acting school."

This age is often a critical period for an actor. If he works hard and can seize the opportunity, he will avoid many detours in the future.

"I'm already in contact." Bill Rossis hesitated for a moment, and said, "Kerry moved out of Julian Fellows's house because of dropping out."

Although I don't know what Kerry Mulligan used to force his parents and Julian Fellows to agree to drop out of school, it was a bit stiff to think about it, and it would not be surprising if he moved out.

Murphy didn't think much about it. Many people in this country would move out of their homes after they were sixteen.

"Where is she going to live?" he asked Bill Roses.

"This..." Bill Rossis swallowed the words back, waved his hand to leave, and left a sentence as he walked back, "You should ask Kerry yourself."

Murphy scratched his head and took out his mobile phone to make a call. Jody Griffith in front of him just drove around and beckoned him, "I'm leaving now."

"Goodbye." He also beckoned.

Pulling the car door, Murphy got into the car, threw the phone on the passenger seat, and planned to go back to call again. Since Carrie Mulligan moved out, he was not in a hurry.

It’s not far from the Santa Monica Green Zone, and it’s more convenient to come and go during post-production. Murphy drove back to Stanton Studio, parked the car on the side of the road, and walked to the floral iron gate with a briefcase. The whole person immediately increased his vigilance.

After the shooting, he gave everyone a vacation, including the studio, and when he left to see the post studio, he personally locked the iron door.

Now that the iron gate is not only opened, but the chain lock is still on the ground casually, and it is obvious that someone has broken in.

Murphy picked up the phone and subconsciously wanted to call 911, but thinking of the things he had done before, he put the phone away and walked gently to the door of the house.

The door of the house was concealed. Murphy walked in and could faintly hear a sound from the stairs. That was the entrance to the storage room...

"Is there a thief?"

He slowly walked into the living room and looked around. In a corner there was a steel pipe for making props. He grabbed one at random and prepared to go over and see, who is so bold and dared to break into his home and steal something.
