Chapter 11: 011

After leaving Griffin supermarket, Simon did not immediately return to the motel. Instead, he shuttled through the streets of Santa Monica to preview his first film.

The first movie Simon plans to make is "Lola Run.".

Although the original "Lola Run" shooting location is not in Los Angeles, but Simon now does not have enough capital to pick and choose. Since he was in Santa Monica, he confirmed the location of the new film.

The choice of "Lola Run" is also the result of Simon's careful consideration.

At the end of the day, the body is only 18 years old.

Under normal circumstances, Hollywood's slightly rational film companies will not take millions of dollars to let a young man under the age of 20 take risks. Now Simon does not have the capital to personally invest in making commercial films.

Therefore, he must show enough strength, at least to a certain extent, to dispel Hollywood's worries about his age.

To achieve this, in fact, it is no more simple than to prove it through works.

Although some changes have taken place in wma, the script revenue of butterfly effect can be expected. This is Simon's first capital, and he must make good use of it to knock on the door of Hollywood.

Of course, no matter how high the price of a script is, it can't be too much. Therefore, Simon has little choice but to make an ultra-low cost film. What's more, the film has to show enough value, either at the box office or in awards.

In terms of box office, Simon remembers many films that simply created low-cost and high box office miracles, such as "the witch Blair" and "ghost".

But in the final analysis, more than 90% of the success of these films is due to luck and proper commercial operation, which has nothing to do with the quality of the films themselves.

The obvious evidence is that after the success of these films, the directors of the films did not show much sense of existence in Hollywood.

Therefore, at this time, Simon is 99% likely to get rid of these films. Even if he has a 1% chance to gain some benefits, Simon's ability in film production will not be recognized by Hollywood.

As for awards, it's no doubt more about qualifications.

What's more, it's also more difficult to make an excellent art film that can reach the award-winning level of several major film festivals just by selling a script.

Repeatedly selected, "Lola Run" this alternative and avant-garde experimental film, for Simon, it seems very appropriate.

"Lola Run" also has a very low production cost. In my memory, it is 350000 German marks, which is about 180000 US dollars, but it will be more than ten years later.

Now, as long as we save a little, Simon thinks that $100000 can basically do it.

Although it is low-cost production, but "Lola Run" also has enough artistic value and commercial value. The film has not only won many awards, but also formed a trend among young people in Germany.

Of course, these are not the most important things for Simon.

Simon's most important point is the perfect presentation of the film's ability to create and direct.

After the birth of "Lola Run" in 1998, the film's dazzling skills in editing, soundtrack, color, montage, and lens manipulation soon made it a classic teaching case in film academies all over the world, and had a very profound impact on many well-known directors.

Doug Riemann, the director of Hollywood classic spy film series, once publicly admitted that the unique shooting style of "spy film series" was inspired by "Lola Run". For this reason, Doug Riemann specially invited the heroine of "Lola Run" Franka Potente to be the No.1 actress of "spy film series".

Therefore, if we choose "Lola Run", even in the worst case, the film will not be satisfactory in the awards and box office in the future. Simon can also get a chance to show his film making skills to Hollywood studios.

Hollywood has its extreme conservative side, but at the same time, it is a circle that worships genius and miracle.

As long as a person can prove his strength and bring benefits to the film company, not many people will care whether he is an angel or a devil. Age is not a problem.

On Washington Avenue, north of downtown Santa Monica.

Simon passed the intersection and saw the castle like dark gray building across the street. It was a club. The architectural color of Los Angeles is mainly white, which makes people feel monotonous and boring.

As a result, such an alternative dark gray building became very conspicuous. Simon soon made a decision to make this dark gray building one of the street scenes that Lola quickly passed in the process of running.

Without a camera, Simon could only use the most stupid way to write down the scene by painting.

Standing on the curb with a hand bound hardcover notebook, Simon first wrote down the most basic street information, re examined the street scene in front of him, and then began to draw quickly in the form of split shot script.A few minutes later, as he was concentrating on his work, Simon suddenly felt a pat on the shoulder.

Confused to turn his head, I do not know when they have stood behind two girls.

One of them was Courtney Cox, and the other blonde was pretty, but Simon didn't know her.

At this time, Courtney was looking at him with vigilant eyes, and did not speak, as if waiting for Simon to take the initiative to explain.

Simon turned and looked around, only to find that he was standing in front of a five story apartment building, where Courtney and the blonde should live.

Feeling Courtney's eyes, Simonton knew it.

All right.

Being treated like a stalker.

With a wry smile, Simon closed his notebook and explained, "Kurt, if I say it's a coincidence, do you believe it?"

"No," said Courtney, shaking her head at once. "So, what are you doing here?"

"I told you this afternoon, I'm preparing my own movie," Simon said, handing over his notebook.

Courtney took the thick 16 open hand bound notebook with a suspicious expression and opened it. The blonde girl next to her also came curiously.

The notebook has accumulated dozens of pages of sub shot drawings based on various types of street scenes. Although they are very brief sketches, both Courtney and blonde girls can easily understand Simon's solid painting skills. Most of the drawings are also marked with many professional notes such as lights and seats.

After several consecutive pages, Courtney's attention was quickly attracted by the running girl with short hair in the painting. Suddenly, she was embarrassed to look at Simon again. The blonde girl, however, had no scruples. She murmured a few words of admiration. Then she looked up to Simon and said, "you're really good at painting, but is the girl in the painting curt?"

Simon was stunned and looked at Courtney's short hair style at this time. Then he understood why the other side would ask.

To be fair, Simon didn't think of a specific object when he sketched the shape of Lola, and he didn't feel much about the original Lola player, franca Potente.

However, perhaps when he came to Los Angeles, Courtney was the only girl Simon knew and whose image was more in line with Lola's setting. Therefore, he subconsciously put each other's figure on during the drawing process, which led to the misunderstanding at this time.

In fact, the draft is very simple. If there are not enough preconditions, it is difficult for anyone to think of this aspect. But Courtney happened to be in front of Simon at this time. Coupled with the little misunderstanding just now, it's not surprising that the blonde girl would ask such a question.

Looking at Courtney, who looked down at the painting and didn't speak, the two girls in front of him had obviously confirmed a fact. Simon no longer refuted this little misunderstanding, but simply nodded and admitted: "yes, I invited Courtney to be my heroine in the afternoon, but she didn't believe it."

"Ha ha, Kurt doesn't want to, or I'll take charge of it. You can change all the girls in the manuscript to me," the blonde girl said with a funny smile, and reached out to Simon, "Hello, I'm Christie Swanson."

Simon reached out to shake the girl and said, "Simon westero."

Hearing this, the blonde girl immediately showed a sudden expression: "Oh, you're what curt said recently..."

Before she finished, Courtney poked her friend's waist and told Christie to shut her mouth. Then she handed Simon her notebook and said, "OK, you've passed."

"So," Simon pointed behind him, "can I stay here and finish that painting?"

Kristians started laughing when he was in bed.

Courtney's face was slightly red, and she gave Simon a white look: "whatever you like, this is a public place."

Simon also felt that the question he had just asked was a little silly. He laughed, reopened his notebook and turned to the last page.

Looking at the dark gray building opposite him again, Simon picked up his pen and began to draw. Seeing that the two girls didn't leave immediately, he said casually, "are you going to have dinner?"
