Hollywood Road

Chapter 295: Self-directed self-performance

A taxi stopped near the gate of the warehouse on the outskirts of Venice. Gal Gadot got out of the car and took out a suitcase from the trunk and pulled it into the warehouse.

"Hi, Gail."

As soon as she entered the warehouse, the person on duty greeted her at the door, and Gal Gadot made a smile and waved his hand over there, "It's been a long time, John."

She walked in all the way and met a lot of people, whether they knew or did not know, as long as someone said hello, Gal Gadot would respond enthusiastically, and most of them smiled sincerely, even though they were not members of the crew. But her popularity is obviously very good.

"Gail, why are you back now?"

When I met Paul Wilson in the office area, Gal Gadot stopped and said, "Something went wrong with the club's plan, and the funds were not enough, so I had to return to Los Angeles early."

She pointed to the front. "Murphy is in the office?"

"Yeah." Paul Wilson nodded, "You go over."

Before coming to Murphy's office, Gal Gadot knocked gently on the door, and when the familiar voice of "Please" sounded inside, he opened the door and walked in.

"In the post-production process, visual effects are a very important part."

In the office, Murphy is communicating with the person in charge of the digital field who provides special effects services for the project, "I have more than 200 post-production special effects shots to make..."

Seeing Gal Gadot coming in, Murphy nodded to her. Gal Gadot had called before, and instead of going back to school, he came here directly.

Gal Gadot beckoned to several people in the office, smiled and said, "You continue."

After that, she dragged the suitcase to the glass wall of the suite, opened the door and walked in, trying not to disturb Murphy and their work.

Close the glass door, Gail Gadot put the suitcase, took out the Nokia phone Murphy gave her, flipped through some photos taken in San Francisco, from time to time, he would look at Murphy's through the special glass. side.

The sound insulation here is very poor. The sound from outside came in clearly and unmistakably, almost all Murphy was talking, and others were listening.

"We will use film all the way."

This is Murphy’s confession to Philip Raschel, “To some extent, the mystery presented by the film is the reason I love it, but at the same time, digital photography can also reduce the film’s impact on processing. The technical problems that come up may not surprise you from time to time, but it is undeniable that it will reduce a lot of risks. It can allow you to sleep well without waking up at 4 in the morning and calling the washing room to ask him today. Need to deal with some situations; but this does not mean that your work will be reduced or easier, you still have to put the lights in the right place and make the right choices."

Putting down the phone, Gail Gadot lifted his chin and looked at Murphy blankly across the glass wall. The two have been dating for more than a year. With the passage of time, the fiery passion not only did not fade, but it became more and more in her heart. The thicker the product...

"Well, let's stop here for the time being today."

The meeting outside disappeared. When the others left, Murphy yelled because he thought it was funny. Jonah Hill, who was also going to act as the assistant director, came to the crew and said, "Jonah, wait a minute."

Seth Rogen patted Jonah Hill on the shoulder. "You are going to be reused by Murphy."

"I'm going to be exploited by him, a black-hearted capitalist!" Jonah Hill murmured deliberately.

He has just participated in the post-production of a comedy film, and there is nothing to do for the time being, plus Seth Rogen and James Franco are here, and he simply joined the crew.

Unlike Jonah Hill, Seth Rogen went out of the office, immediately found Paul Wilson and an assistant producer, walked out of the warehouse gate, and prepared to go to see the location together.

Outside the warehouse gate, it was no longer the same quiet as when Gal Gadot came. Suddenly a lot of paparazzi and entertainment reporters appeared. Paul Wilson couldn't help frowning when he saw them.

"Why are these guys here?" He was quite puzzled.

The crew has always been very low-key, and because of the needs of publicity and marketing, it has always implemented the most stringent confidentiality system, which has never attracted the attention of the media.

Those reporters weren't the target of the crew. When they saw Paul Wilson and Seth Rogen come out, they just glanced at them and ignored them.

Seth Rogen shrugged, "We were ignored. What are they waiting for? Are they waiting for Murphy and Gail?"

Obviously, these reporters and paparazzi are waiting here specially.

"No." Paul Wilson shook his head. In the direction he was facing, a red Ford sedan really slowly drove up. You can see from the front windshield that the driver is a very familiar star. Face, he said, "They should be waiting for her."

The Ford car was parked in the parking lot on the side of the warehouse, and a petite woman with light makeup and plain clothes pushed the door and walked down. The paparazzi reporter seemed to have an appointment, and surrounded her in the middle with a camera shutter Don't press frequently like money.

"Natalie Portman..." Seth Rogen certainly recognized the woman. "It turned out that Queen Padmé Amidala came here. No wonder these reporters and paparazzi are waiting here."

Paul Wilson retracted his gaze, showing no interest in this apparently self-directed and self-acting scene, and reminded, "Let’s go, don’t delay, we still have several locations to see."

Although most of the film’s storyline takes place in Missouri, Murphy is not planning to go to Missouri to shoot on-site because of the lack of tax rebates and other related preferential policies. The crew will basically stay in Los Angeles to find a suitable location.

Seth Rogen took one last look. Natalie Portman who got out of the car was surrounded by reporters and paparazzi, but the reporter and paparazzi were in very good order.

"Miss Portman, a new film directed by Stanton is in preparation here."

A reporter put the microphone in front of Natalie Portman and asked loudly, "Are you here now, do you intend to work with Director Stanton?"

"Murphy is a great director." Natalie Portman praised, "Working with him is the glory of every actor. The heroine of his new work is really amazing. I have never encountered it before. A brilliant role, I came here to discuss the possibility of cooperation with him."

Another reporter asked, "Can you tell me?"

Natalie Portman shook her head, "Sorry, I can't do this until the crew officially reveals it."

A script is often widely circulated in Hollywood, and may be passed by many people. It seems that the specific content can be circulated at any time, but in fact it rarely happens. There is an unwritten consensus in the circle for a long time, and no one will take the initiative to share it. Foreigners reveal the content of the script they saw. If they do so, the consequences will be very serious and will be rejected by the entire circle.

As actors, especially well-known actors, you can see many scripts. If the content of one is revealed to the outside world, what will the crew that want to work with them in the future think? When giving the actors a role script, there will inevitably be doubts about whether they will leak secrets to the outside world.

Natalie Portman is a smart person, and certainly wouldn't do anything to become a public enemy in the circle.

"What do you think of this cooperation?" The reporter asked the question as if the two sides had already cooperated.

"I will try my best." Natalie Portman smiled, "I admire Director Stanton very much. His style is so unique. I dream of working with him."

Turning around, Natalie Portman walked towards the warehouse door. Not only did the reporter and the paparazzi not be besieged, but they also gave way to both sides, just as if they were sending off the queen, watching Natalie Portman leave.

There was no one in front of him, and the enthusiastic smile on her face disappeared instantly. Natalie Portman hooked her mouth and used the media to build momentum. It was also her usual way to obtain roles in the past. Everyone said it was appropriate, plus the next step. Carefully prepared, isn't Amy's role in hand yet?

She can handle even famous figures like Luc Besson and George Lucas, let alone a young director like Murphy Stanton?

She also did some understanding before coming. From the analysis of the information she received, it is not difficult to see that Murphy Stanton is not at all the boyfriend in the eyes of the silly girl of Gal Gadot. Before dating Gal Gadot, I also dated a British girl, as if Jessica Chastain's intervention led to a breakup, and then it was revealed that the relationship between Jessica Alba and him was unclear...

Natalie Portman certainly knows what the Hollywood circle is like. Ninety-nine percent of such rumors are true.

"You are... You are Padmé Amidala..." The person on duty at the door wore a star wars t-shirt. When she saw Natalie Portman, her eyes were straight, "No, you are Miss Natalie Portman."

"I'm looking for Murphy." Natalie Portman put out a warm and friendly smile.

The duty officer said immediately, "Please go here, Director Stanton is in the office."

This face completely became a passport. Natalie Portman found Murphy's office with almost no effort, and then gently clicked the door.

"Please come in."

Hearing this sound, she pushed the door and walked in. Murphy was sitting behind a simple desk, talking with a fat man with his back to her.

"Hi, Murphy." Natalie Portman beckoned over there. Murphy had no idea that it was her, but she nodded, "Hello, Nat."

Jonah Hill turned his head and glanced, and beckoned to Natalie Portman. He turned his head and squeezed his eyes at Murphy and stood up, "Come here today, I still have a job. Busy, let's go first."

After speaking, he smiled at Natalie Portman again and walked out of the office quickly.
