Chapter 9 - Filming Location

Knowing that the company has a movie to make, the most happy people are the employees below. After getting the script handed over, several departments immediately began to study.

  When the screenwriter's name was their new boss at first, everyone still felt bad, but when they saw the clearly drawn storyboard, they immediately saw the professionalism of the script. Let alone the content, this storyboard script alone can definitely be regarded as a first-class level.

  "Boom boom" knocked on the door.

  It was Louise Baker who came in. She was one of the company's last veterans and belonged to the company's middle management.

  "Miss Moran."

  "Just call me Laila." Laila smiled at her friendly, walked out from behind the desk, and asked her to sit on the side sofa.

  The office spent an afternoon replacing all the flashy furniture and furnishings that made people lose their morale. As a person with an oriental soul, she has a natural preference for solid wood, so the furnishings in exchange are a set of atmospheric and calm dark red office furniture. From the desk to the bookcase, there is no pink atmosphere like the original love hotel.

  "Okay, Laila." Louise smiled, but her expression didn't relax too much.

  She knew what kind of wealth behind the girl in front of her, she could definitely spray herself to the level of Siberia when she sneezed, so she was polite, and she still had to express her respect. And I don't know if it's the problem of changing the office layout. She always feels that this young girl is giving her an inexplicable pressure, and she cannot help but assume a more respectful posture.

  Laila has been a director for ten years. Even if there is only one movie, there are a lot of TV shows. In those crews, as long as she doesn't contradict the producers, she is basically a sidewalker in the crew. Unknowingly, that kind of aura is cultivated, otherwise, how can you suppress some little stars who have their tails up to the sky and look at people with their nostrils?

  "I want to communicate with you about some questions."

  "No problem." Laila made a please gesture to her.

  "That's it. Regarding the choice of shooting location, don't you know you already have a place in your heart?"

  "Yes." Laila nodded, "I plan to be in Blake Town."

  Louise frowned suspiciously: "Blake Town?"

  "It's in Maryland. I've seen it on TV before. There is a mountain forest that fits our shots." Laila replied half-truth.

  The town of Black Town was the location where Blair the Witch was originally filmed. With such a fine forest, she naturally didn't want to waste time looking for other places.

  Louise didn't know the place, but since the head family said that, she wouldn't say anything. Anyway, after her calculations, it would not cost tens of thousands of dollars to make this movie. Just as it was to make the lady happy, she would work hard to do her job well.

  "I understand, I will arrange it in a while. Besides, do you need anything else about the props?"

  "They are all professional. I believe they can give me some surprises. Let them do it. If there is a problem I'll say it at that time."

  "Okay." Louise was still very happy with her trust, and after asking a few more trivial questions, she suddenly seemed to say nothing .

  Laila raised her eyebrows: "Is there anything else? Just say it. The first time we cooperate, many places need to be adjusted slowly, right?"

  "That's it. After studying the script, did we feel that something was missing?" Louise tried to "correct" her mistakes in a way that was easiest for the other party to understand without offending the other party.

  "What's missing?"

  "Uh. From the very beginning, I was looking for a witch, but in the end it didn't appear like a witch." The implication is that you have forgotten the most important role?

  Laila now understood why she wanted to say but didn't dare to say it, because she was afraid that her script would be accused, and then she became angry and turned to leave, right?

  "Haha." She chuckled twice: "That's great. Just say what you have. We can discuss and discuss." "Yes, what you said is." Louise also laughed, just like that. Just listen, it's impossible to say anything. Is it true with the boss? That's silly!

  Laila thought for a while, and then said "If a person knows that he will die in an hour, and in a very terrible way, what do you think is the most terrible? Is the horror at death, or the time waiting for death more terrible?"

  Louise felt a little bit in her heart, feeling that what the eldest lady said seemed to make sense! Is death terrible? The answer is of course yes. But if you are yourself, knowing that you will die in a terrible way in an hour, you will definitely be scared to death by the atmosphere of death.

  Laila knew her expression and knew she understood "We are making a horror movie. It's not enough to let the horribly dressed witch run out and make people scream indiscriminately. Maybe the mainstream does that, but this one The movie is not used. Sometimes the unknown and the invisible are the most terrifying."

  "I know." After Louise understood her thoughts, her first reaction was shock. Shocked by her unique thinking, but also by her bold innovation. It seems that the eldest lady came to play movies when she had money and nowhere to lose?

  Her surprised expression made Laila blush. These theories may be very novel now, and they will be rotten in later generations. But it's okay, it just works now.

  She patted Louise's hand "I know what kind of atmosphere is in the company now, and I also know that you may be more difficult. This movie is our company's test of water, let us see the new phoenix How much can it be done!"

  "Okay, Laila, I think we will make an amazing movie." Louise's voice was a little excited. In other words, it is the veteran who came in since the company was founded. Of course, she hopes that the company will get better and better.

  "Go ahead." Laila looked at the clock on the wall, it was time for lunch.

  "Then I will go out first." Louise stood up and walked out.

  "By the way, I have contacted the Screen Actors Guild, you will host the audition the day after tomorrow." Laila added before she went out.

  "No problem." Louise was familiar with this kind of thing, and immediately patted her plump breasts and agreed.

  Originally, Laila wanted to choose it herself, but her age was a flaw. Maybe someone would give up the audition because of her age and seniority who thought she could not make a good film. It is said that everything is difficult at the beginning, and when Blair the Witch becomes the biggest dark horse in history, her next actions should be much easier.

  Thinking of the day after tomorrow, her heart couldn't help but become hot.

  What kind of people will you meet during the audition? Will she find the uncut jade buried in history?
