Hollywood superstars: Start as a child star

Joining the Group

Mexico, Cancun.

As soon as you get off the plane, the tropical atmosphere hits your face.

Cancun’s rainy season runs from July to October. The crew specifically chose to arrive at the end of October to avoid the rainy season.

As a small-to-medium-budget film with an investment of US$14.5 million, it came to Mexico for filming mainly to save production costs.

Claire found out that in order to support the development of tourism, the local government in Cancun, Mexico, welcomed foreign film crews, especially Hollywood crews from the United States, to film locally for the purpose of disguised tourism promotion.

In order to increase support, a 30% tax rebate policy has been introduced, which is a huge temptation for every crew. In addition, the local area will fully cooperate in the coordination of filming locations, which greatly saves expenses.

…

The producer, director, and screenwriter of “Romeo and Juliet” are all Baz Luhrmann, which shows how much he bets on and cares about the film.

At first, Baz Luhrmann expressed dissatisfaction with Fox executives directly appointing the leading actor. This disrespectful behavior towards him is very disgusting.

After Roxy learned about it, she ran back to Los Angeles from London to meet with Baz Luhrmann.

In order to appease the director and screenwriter, before leaving London, she also approached Ms. Tessa and Director Stephen, the producers of “Billy Elliot”, and asked for a rough cut of Claire’s performance clips.

Baz Luhrmann thought for a long time after watching a clip of Clare’s “Billy Elliot” performance.

“This movie is Claire’s film debut.” Roxy explained. “He has only played supporting roles in two TV series before. He has only really entered this industry for two years.” “It is very spiritual.

” Z. Luhrmann also had to admit.

“Yes, it is precisely because of this that I signed him. You know, when my father saw him, he subconsciously said that he looked like Romeo.” Roxy started to talk nonsense.

“Oh? Mr. Ferguson, was he appointed?” Baz Luhrmann was a little surprised. He thought it was some small leader from Fox who took advantage of his position to put him in.

But Ferguson is different. As the leader of the giant 20th Century Fox, he has also served as the producer of many classic films such as “The Attack on Pearl Harbor” in the past. Baz Luhrmann still respects this kind of predecessor very much.

Seeing that Baz Luhrmann’s resistance was much less, Roxy struck while the iron was hot, “Yes, Ferguson likes Claire very much. He bluntly said that Claire’s acting skills are the most talented and spiritual he has ever seen in his career. I believe you will finish reading I can feel it from the clip just now.”

“Indeed.” Baz Luhrmann nodded sincerely, “I understand what you mean. I can rest assured about Claire’s acting skills. Moreover, his appearance is also very good. Appropriate.”

“I still want to apologize to you here, Mr. Baz Luhrmann!” Seeing that the crisis was almost resolved, Roxy ended with an apology.

Even if you convince the other party, you still have to keep a low profile. There is always a feeling of anger in people’s hearts. Otherwise, if you forcefully use Claire’s acting skills and Ferguson’s father’s status to convince the other party, the other party will definitely take revenge on Claire. You know, as a director, he has ten thousand ways to make actors unhappy.

Offended the director? Just leave as soon as possible. Unless you are Hollywood’s A-list~

“Due to the hasty appointment by the top management, we missed a link in the early communication with you. As a result, both parties lacked the necessary understanding and mutual trust. I hope Mr. Baz Luhrmann can understand this time.” An own incident, give Claire a chance to perform!” ”

OKOK~ I’m looking forward to his performance and what kind of sparks our cooperation will create.” Baz Luhrmann waved his hands repeatedly and said with emotion: “Claire is very good. I’m lucky to meet an agent like you who has the resources and still thinks about him.” ”

I have to rely on him for a living. All agents are like this.” Roxy smiled lightly.

“If other agents said this, I would still believe it.” Baz Luhrmann shook his head, “You are just kidding when you explain it like this!” After Roxy bid farewell to

Baz Luhrmann, she turned around and went to her father Ferguson I called the phone and blamed him for not following the process, which almost dug a big hole for Claire and myself. This is not repaying Claire, but setting him up!

Father Ferguson was so frightened that he hurriedly apologized and made amends.

…

Of course, Claire doesn’t know the twists and turns involved.

He happily took his assistant Martin and bodyguard Campbell and rushed to the set with the crew.

Once everyone has settled down, it’s time for a script reading session before filming begins.

Claire has fully experienced this step in her previous movie “Billy Elliot”. I feel deeply rewarded.

Claire has also relied on the golden finger given to her by the system and her familiarity with movies to master the role of Romeo. At least, his performance is less difficult than in “Billy Elliot” Billy. At this film’s reading meeting, it was successfully recognized by the director, screenwriter and producer – Baz Luhrmann.

Of course, what he didn’t know was that the manager behind it, Roxy, helped him fill the hole. Otherwise, during this reading meeting, Baz Luhrmann will definitely make critical remarks, making it difficult for Claire to get off the stage.

If Claire doesn’t give in in the end, Baz Luhrmann may not necessarily kick him out of the crew, but it will really be a lose-lose situation.

…

Compared to the “Billy Elliot” crew, the “Romeo and Juliet” film crew is a bit larger. Especially Baz Luhrmann, who wears many hats and is very busy.

It can be seen that without certain coordination ability, you cannot be a director. Every day, we have to direct each group so that everyone can do what they should do and appear where they should.

In comparison, being an actor is much easier. You just need to take care of yourself, memorize your own lines, have some professional ethics, and then memorize your opponent’s lines. Everyone praised him for his dedication.

But aren’t these all things that an actor has to do? Claire said that she wants to be a good actor in the new era, do what needs to be done, and not dictate.

Moreover, he has almost given up the idea of becoming a major director of commercial films.

If you can’t do it, you really can’t do it. If directing an independent literary film is a manual workshop model, then a large-investment commercial blockbuster is a precision industrial production like an airplane engine. There are thousands of people in the entire crew, just like tens of thousands of parts, working together to produce commercial blockbusters.

This is something that Claire can’t do. Even if he has the original film of the movie in the system space and can imitate it shot by shot and shoot it, the editor will still be unable to get through it. Just thinking about it makes me bald!
