Chapter 76 Drones and the Perfect Camera
Beautiful and handsome men are almost an indispensable element in commercial films.Of course beauties are needed, but it is not advisable to overwhelm the audience and simply rely on beauty to cover up the film's flaws.Emilia is beautiful, but Clare won't let her be a simple vase.She never lets unnecessary vase roles take over much of the scene.
Claire made up her mind not to let this "vase role" affect the harmony of the film, and she had to ask David to change the confusing relationship between this character and the hero, which really sucks for her.
David, who didn't know that he had taken on a hard job, was still happily changing the script, but he didn't know that this was not what Claire said, "Come be the screenwriter of my new film, there is not much to do, just modify the script".
"This is rewriting a story!" David burst into tears.
Claire: "I believe in your ability, David, look at you, are you still the same person after you edited "Game of Thrones"? You have been completely reborn!"
Although David felt Claire's shamelessness, he couldn't deny that his ability was indeed growing exponentially.Just like the experience of graduates who have completed a large project has increased rapidly, David, who edited "Game of Thrones" under Clare, really felt his progress.
David struggled a bit, but he still wanted to sue her: "That's what you said, but you didn't agree with me before... This workload doesn't match the salary you gave me! After rewriting the script It’s enough time for me to accept a script worth three times the price myself.”
"How can you think like that? Dave, can those scripts outside make you stand alone? Now you are the only screenwriter of "Slums". In other places, when the film is screened, your name can only be listed in the screenwriter column. Personally, how can you have enough room to develop in terms of writing." Claire comforted him.
David disagreed with her statement: "That's what you say, but isn't that why you are stingy and don't want to hire more people?"
Claire: "David, how can you think of me like that, am I like that?"
David thought about what she did, and was confused: "Um... isn't it?..."
Claire objected: "No, no, it's not like that. I'm doing this with good intentions, and those are your illusions. And it's not good for you to think so much about David, so you might as well spend your time on the script. I look forward to The day you were a genius and made my movie take off, you could. You can't imagine how well you wrote Game of Thrones."
David was dazed by her flattery, and just like the countless protests he had made before cooperating with "Game of Thrones" were fruitless, he was still coaxed by her to work happily at his desk in the end.

Claire is not worried about how to set up a crew of more than 100 people.That's why Ian strongly suggested that she buy the original "Telescope Studio". Although the sparrow is small, it has all the internal organs.Although raising these more than 400 employees has increased her monthly debts, the advantage is that now that she goes to the company to raise her arms, photographers, field staff, etc. can start working immediately.
She hadn't met these people one by one, the task was too heavy.
She only personally observed and selected a few good photographers and set designers, and then drew in the elites of each department according to the previous business report of the studio.
"Slumdog Millionaire" is very different from her two recent films "Ghost in the Shell" and "Game of Thrones", and the composition and mood are very different.Claire has almost no use for the experience accumulated in the previous two works.
It's not that there are no similar works at all. "Frida", which was set in Mexico in the last century, is the most similar movie to "Slums".But in that movie, the main character was an artist, and Clare used slow motion the most, and then used appropriate colors to form frames of oil painting-like effects, so as to harmonize with the protagonist's experience.
Claire couldn't reproduce it as it is on "Slumdog", which is certainly possible, but it is far from the effect she wants.
For Ghetto, Claire wanted to use more motion shots rather than mostly slow motion.
She wanted to use running as the theme of the lens language, combining various running of the actors, the transition of the lens and the passage of time.
She told the photographer: "We need to make the scene move. Movement is life. Just like Forrest Gump in "Forrest Gump" used relentless running to bring out American history. To become a millionaire, you have to keep moving. So In this movie, the moving camera has to be the subject.”
The cameraman nodded and said, "That's true, but the scenes of those slum children flying over the walls and leading the audience to see the chaos in the slums you mentioned are not so good. The equipment is limited, even if we use all the cranes."
Claire looked at the time and said: "Don't worry, count the time, the equipment I want is coming soon, they are magic tools for us."
Sure enough, a group of people from the production team came in the afternoon, and a few very mysterious things were brought in.
One of them is very much like a normal video camera, and the others are like toy airplanes.Claire hands these things over to the photographer.
The photographer felt strange: "This is... a camera? I don't see any difference from the one I have in my hand. Is this the magic weapon you mentioned?"
In order to show him the mystery, Clare personally removed the lens from the fuselage under the surprised eyes of the photographer. She said: "This is a perfect camera that I hired a German photographic equipment company to build. .”
"Separate the lens from the body, add a handle to the lens, attach a circular stabilizer to the monitor, and put the body in a backpack, so you can walk freely in a small space. Fix the lens on the On the crane, there is no shot that I want to complete that it can't shoot."
After being amazed, the photographer manipulated the camera and fell in love with it: "My God, this is so convenient."
Claire pointed to something else: "This is a drone, and the aerial shots are done by it."
But the photographer didn't look happy now, and he became very scared: "How can you use a drone to take pictures? The things you take are so shaking that you can't see them, and you are not afraid of hurting people?"
The drones currently on the market cannot fly very low due to safety reasons, and it is difficult to approach the subject of shooting, and there are even certain potential safety hazards.Many people wanted to use drones for TV movies, but since the problems with the drones themselves were gone, the cameraman was stunned to hear that Claire planned to use drones to shoot aerial shots.
Claire shook her head: "This is not the drone you mentioned, it's a multi-rotor, it's safe to fly, and the picture is very stable. If you don't believe me, just try it and you'll know."
After dubiously playing with the drones for a while, the photographer found that the pictures taken by these drones were indeed as Claire said, with high pixels, stable and no shaking, and no danger of hurting people.
He admired Claire very much: "My God, how do you know these good things?"
Claire: "From what I read in magazines and newspapers, this kind of equipment has not been widely promoted, but there are already rumors in these pioneer news."
The photographer was overjoyed: "With these equipment, those problems will be solved! My God, I can't wait to see the perfect shot with these treasures!"
Claire made up her mind not to let this "vase role" affect the harmony of the film, and she had to ask David to change the confusing relationship between this character and the hero, which really sucks for her.
