MTL - My Animation Era-Chapter 83 solicit

  Chapter 83 Solicitation

  Gu Miao was numb.

  As soon as he received the invitation from Du Hao, he put down his work and went to Zhong Hai to attend the premiere of the movie "Stellar Fall".

  The result...

   What did he see?

  In order to save "cost" and production cycle, the "special effects scenes" and "smelly and long" literary plots have been greatly reduced.

   Isn’t this disgusting person!

  The finished film effect is completely different from the script he had read at the beginning.

  The "big scene" mentioned in the script did not appear at all. The "Alien Fleet", the core of the film, never even showed its face once.

   Science fiction?

   There are not even a few special effects shots, and it has been talking about how the protagonist quarreled with his ex-wife, recalled the past, and then "reunited". It is more reasonable to say that this is a "romance movie" than a science fiction movie.

   "So disappointed I knock!"

  Huang Kun, who accompanied Gu Miao to attend the premiere, couldn't help but muttered after watching: "I'm so stupid after watching, where's the alien fleet?"

really!

   Everyone rushed to buy tickets to watch the movie under the title of "domestic sci-fi savior", but they didn't see sci-fi, but were fed a mouthful of dog food by the hero and heroine. Who can accept this?

   It's not just Gu Miao.

  In fact, most of the people who attended the premiere had similar thoughts. I feel that the movie "Stellar Fall" is a bit "selling dog meat".

   Word of mouth exploded at the premiere.

   Just like a well-known film critic left a message on social networks: If you want to watch science fiction movies, then "Stellar Fall" will probably disappoint you! If you're looking for romance, this movie isn't the best choice either.

  Box office statistics have not been updated yet.

  But Gu Miao heard that many theaters have already started to complain that the attendance rate of this movie is not high, and the screening rate needs to be lowered.

   This is the first day of the show!

have to say…

  Although before this, Gu Miao had predicted that "Starfall" directed by Du Hao would not have any good results. But he really didn't expect that the final product would be like this.

   At first he thought.

  For a "sci-fi" movie made in four or five months, the special effects may be terrible, probably not even as good as "Fortress of China Sea", after all, the time is too short.

   But Du Hao is really a clever ghost!

  He also probably understands that the special effects are limited by time, so it should be impossible to do well. Then simply cut off the special effects lens, wouldn't the problem be solved?

   "You're so smart..."

  After the premiere, Gu Miao saw Du Hao with a haggard face, gave a thumbs up and praised: "This is the first time I've seen such a sci-fi film."

   "Laugh if you want to."

   Du Hao shook his head and explained: "I really underestimated the amount of money needed to make a sci-fi movie, so this kind of problem arises."

  He tried his best.

   It is indeed lack of financial resources, there is no way to make so many special effects shots. If he could do it all over again, he would definitely not spend his "own" money to make a movie.

   This is simply a bottomless pit!

   "Do you think I want to release it so soon? It's not that I was forced to do nothing!"

  Du Hao said helplessly: "The crew has no money, and they almost can't afford lunch for the extras. If it doesn't show up again, I'm afraid the movie hasn't finished filming, so I'll go to the overpass to beg for food first."

   "Ah this..."

  When he said this, Gu Miao understood a little bit. It turned out that the few special effects shots and the short production cycle were all due to Du Hao's lack of money.

   There is really no way.

  I can only say that whether it is a movie director, a TV drama director, or even an animation director, it is best not to use your own money to make movies unless it is absolutely necessary.

   No, Du Hao was fooled!

"learn from mistakes."

  Gu Miao comforted: "From now on, you will receive your salary honestly and get a share, and don't think about investing yourself. The film circle is too deep, you can't grasp it..."

   "Then you still mixed in?"

  Du Hao rolled his eyes and said, "I heard that you asked for several film distributors at the premiere, as well as the contact information of theater representatives."

   "Wanbao also wants to make movies?"

   "Yes." Gu Miao nodded.

   This is not a secret, it doesn't hurt to tell Du Hao.

  Anyway, sooner or later, Wanbao will get involved in the area of ​​animated films. Contacting the distributors and theaters now is also to establish a good relationship in advance to facilitate future admission.

"Pity."

  Du Hao sighed: "You are engaged in animation, not live-action movies. Otherwise, I can go to you if I can't afford food someday."

   "Welcome!"

   Gu Miao, who had been waiting for him to say this, clapped her hands and said with a smile, "Wanbao doesn't make live-action movies, but live-action TV dramas, online dramas, and stage plays are fine!"

   "Huh? TV series?"

  Du Hao wondered: "It's good, why do you want to make a live-action TV series? This seems to have nothing to do with Wanbao's business, right?"

   "Who said there is no connection?"

   "Do you remember "Sailor Moon"? I mentioned to you before, the magical girl theme animation broadcast on Neon!"

  Gu Miao explained: "I discussed it with Ma Kui, and I think this animation can be remade into a live-action drama."

  Live-action Sailor Moon?

  Hearing this appalling idea, Du Hao subconsciously thought it was nonsense, there are already animations, why remake a live-action drama? Can real people be as beautiful as two-dimensional paper people?

   But think about it...

   It seems that this is not impossible!

  A lot of magical girl-themed animations have been remade into live-action dramas, and there are many successful cases. Gu Miao had this idea, which made logical sense.

"what do you mean…"

  Du Hao hesitated: "Do you want me to help you film this live-action version of "Sailor Moon"?"

   "Exactly!"

  Gu Miao said sincerely: "You are very talented, but this kind of talent is not suitable for movies. TV dramas may be a good stage, what do you think?"

  He also watched Starfall.

   It is undeniable that this is indeed a failed movie. But the composition of the picture is great, the camera language is very subtle, Du Hao is indeed capable in filming.

  That's why he sent out the invitation.

   "Let me think about it."

  Du Hao didn't agree, nor did he directly refuse, he just said: ""Stellar Fall" has just been released, and no one can tell what will happen in the future."

to be honest.

  He still doesn't give up on live-action movies, and believes that "Stellar Fall" still has hope of turning around.

  Not to mention a complete turnaround to recover the production cost, as long as the box office can make him pay back a mouthful of blood, and he will not go to the streets to beg for food, he will not easily transform into a live-action version of "Sailor Moon".

   Gu Miao didn't insist on this.

  In his opinion, Du Hao is not willing to give up until the Yellow River, and the present persistence is nothing but a meaningless struggle.

  Anyone can see it.

  In this Lunar New Year file, "Starfall" is definitely the first movie to be out. If it was shot like this ghost, the box office results must be very dismal.

   Talk to him again in a month, and he will definitely not refuse.

   Seeking collection monthly ticket support~!
