Chatty Hollywood

? It is precisely because of Alexis’s superb acting skills with her own magical special effects that the climax of the mystery reveal at the end of "The Island" was shot very shockingly.

In fact, because no editing was needed, Lao Gun even used a long shot.

Although today's editing technology is becoming more and more powerful, the importance of long shots has seriously declined.

——Many action movies, in particular, rely heavily on editing. If the editing is not good, it will simply become another movie.

But that doesn’t mean long lenses are useless.

In fact, some art film directors always like to use the phrase "one shot to the end" to despise commercial films, which is not entirely unreasonable -

On the one hand, the use of long lenses does test the director’s on-site control and shooting abilities.

On the other hand, long shots are easier to understand than edited short shots.

——For this reason, for most directors, it is still very proud to be able to use a long shot without editing in their movies.

The same goes for old guns.

——Although this long shot was achieved with the help of Alexis cheating with magic.

But others don’t know!

In fact, after the release of Spectre Studio's "Little Island", many film critics and Hollywood colleagues praised this long shot at the climax.

——Of course, they didn’t know that there was the effect of Miss Valkyrie’s spell.

Everyone thought that this long shot was a little idea of ​​director Lao Qiang.

As for the effect of the heroine disappearing and appearing in the camera, it is the credit of the special effects team of Spectre Studio.

——This is actually not wrong.

After all, Alexis wears many hats under Charlotte.

The director of the special effects department of Spectre Studio is one of her main jobs...

In short, because of this long shot, Lao Qiang still received praise from many film critics.

And Alexis' acting skills are also reflected through this long shot.

has been vividly reflected.

Therefore, even though it was only her first time playing a leading role, Miss Valkyrie suddenly received an Oscar-level rating.

Coupled with his good looks, some film projects have extended an olive branch to him.

Therefore, Charlotte felt that she needed to ask Alexis about her future plans as an actress——

"You know, we have solved the hidden danger of you not being captured by the camera before "The Island", so even if you want to be a real female star, there is no problem!"

Charlotte smiled and said,

"So, Alexis, what are your plans?"

"A real female star!"

Miss Valkyrie closed her eyes, as if immersed in fantasy for a moment.

However, she finally opened her eyes,

"Forget it! I'm fine as I am now. If I really wanted to be a pure Hollywood actress, my life would be much more boring! Having said that -"

Alexis looked at Charlotte;

"——Sally follows you so wholeheartedly, is it partly because of this, right?"

"Well..."

Charlotte shrugged.

"as long as you are happy!"

*********

In short, the success of the movie "Island" only caused such fluctuations in Spectre Studio——

Because Mr. Westwood quickly won the rights to adapt the Japanese version of "The Ring", Lao Qiang also quickly started preparations for the film adaptation;

——Because she has to take care of her family, the progress is not urgent, and Charlotte is not dissatisfied.

As for Alexis, she suddenly became red because of this.

Some people even dug out old photos of her playing the archangel Gabriel in "Hell Detective", and then she became a hopeless member of Miss Valkyrie's foot control party.

——There are many such members especially in the special effects department of Spectre Studio.

——Who made Alexis their nominal leader?

Of course, Miss Valkyrie basically ignores these guys except for work.

But because of this, she got another nickname of "Queen" inside the studio...

As for those film offers from outside the studio, Alexis basically refused.

On the one hand, it is true as she said, she finds it more interesting to maintain her current life;

On the other hand, it is also because among those film contracts, there are not many of them with relatively high quality.

Alexis felt that it would be more useful to simply make a cameo in an in-studio movie.

Besides, her work is indeed very busy——

As Charlotte's secretary, Miss Valkyrie needs to coordinate a lot of things. Sometimes even across the Atlantic Ocean;

As the supervisor of the special effects department of Spectre Studio, although she basically does not have to work personally, it is still necessary to attend some work meetings from time to time and review work plans;

What's more, after finding her sister Jenny, she has to coach her acting skills in the "acting space" once every seven days.

***********

In fact, after "The Island" was released, Jenny already felt that something was wrong——

There is no way, even if Alexis's image in reality and in the movie is different from that in Jenny's "acting space", they are still relatively similar in general.

In this case, once Jenny finished watching "The Island", she would naturally wonder if there was any connection between the two.

Of course, this suspicion is not serious.

After all, there are quite a few people who look similar in reality.

If nothing else, just like Guo Da Statham...

In short, Jenny only had a little doubt after watching "The Island".

However, before she could think about it carefully, the massive promotion of "Pirates of the Caribbean" began.

Jenny had to follow the crew around to promote it, and this little doubt was put behind her.

"This is my first movie as a heroine, but it must be a success!"

While resting, Jenny couldn’t help praying like this.

At this time, her agent gave her a rare word of comfort,

"Based on the feedback so far, Pirates of the Caribbean doesn't show any signs of failure - aside from Disney president Michael Eisner's complaints about Johnny Depp's character."

"That last sentence is redundant!"

"I'm just telling the truth. "

The agent was as puzzled as ever. He explained in a robot-like voice that was stable but lacked vitality,

"The fact that Disney will release this news shows that they are actually trying to use this negative news to attract the audience's interest in "Pirates of the Caribbean" - judging from the current signs, I think they have succeeded! "

"In other words, this is actually good news?"

"So be it!"

The agent nodded,

"However, whether it will be useful in the end depends on the audience's feedback after the official release - it is not uncommon for a movie to be a complete success in the test screening, and unanimously favored by industry insiders, but ultimately failed at the box office. "

"...You really don't know how to comfort people!"

In the end, Jenny could only shake her head helplessly.
