Hollywood Hunter
The next day, another Sundance Film Festival closed.
The jury award was given to a low-cost black-and-white feature film, deep water, which tells the story of a frustrated screenwriter and a failed producer trying to raise money to make a film.
In previous media reviews, "drowning dog" is controversial, but its reputation is very good, and the voice of awards is also very high.
It's just that, because many of the judges didn't like the film, which was too naked to show violence, "the drowning dog" got nothing in the end.
In recent years, danelis entertainment has purchased movies or scripts from Sundance almost every year, and the relationship between the two sides has been very close.
However, it is precisely for this reason that in order to maintain the fairness of the Sundance awards as far as possible, danielis entertainment will not easily interfere with the Awards Evaluation unless necessary.
Simon went straight back to Los Angeles after attending the closing ceremony of the festival.
As for the follow-up of "drowning dog", the $2.5 million project is not enough to make him pay too much attention.
In the original time and space, the North American release of "drowning dog" failed, but it also made Miramax and Quentin Tarantino establish a long-term cooperative relationship. It was not until the Weinstein scandal broke out that the cooperation finally ended.
After a long talk that night, Catherine went to New York.
There was not much choice, had to shoot their own subjects are not very interested.
Now, with the accumulation of several films with fairly good box office results and Simon's support, Katherine is no longer troubled by many film makers who have just started their career. After being awakened by Simon, she decides to spend the next year or two carefully sorting out and digging out some projects.
It's also planned to go to Europe.
The great changes in Eastern Europe and the Soviet Union, as well as the follow-up trend of these countries, made Katherine curious, and she had the idea to shoot one or two documentaries first.
From "Gucci mark" to "truth and bravery" and last year's "ice and snow world", the success of three consecutive documentaries at the box office has made documentaries a category that Hollywood pays close attention to.
Simon himself is Katherine who can shoot whatever she wants.
It's not bad for money.
It doesn't matter if we shoot the widow maker in the original time and space. What Denise entertainment lacks most now is a huge loss project.
Of course, throughout Hollywood, Simon will only indulge Catherine.
Even he himself would not be so laissez faire.
After the closure of Sundance, it was the end of January.
Back in Los Angeles, the first thing to deal with is Denise Entertainment's second layoff.
This month, after repeated review and evaluation by the company's human resources department, a preliminary list of 800 layoffs was drawn up, which was less than Simon's assumption. However, after the news was released, it caused controversy in the media.
The U.S. economy as a whole is still at the bottom. In 1991, the federal unemployment rate hit a new high.
If it is other companies, there is nothing wrong with layoffs at this time.
The survival of enterprises is the most important.
However, Denise Entertainment's layoff is hard for many people to accept.
Just look at the box office figures of last year's series of blockbuster films from danielis entertainment, and you can see the company's performance in 1991.
In the eyes of the outside world, it is a very lack of sense of social responsibility and an act of unscrupulous capitalists for a company with such excellent operation to insist on layoffs.
In fact, the layoff of 800 people, combined with the cost of all aspects, can only save less than 200 million US dollars for Denise entertainment every year. However, Simon insisted on layoffs, the fundamental purpose is not to save money, but to keep Denise entertainment can continue to operate efficiently.
Many of the big company's ailments begin with overstaffed personnel.
If danielis entertainment wants to maintain its high-speed development momentum as long as possible, it must let its employees always maintain a sense of crisis.
No matter how well the company develops, if you don't work hard, you will still lose your job.
As a result, we didn't pay much attention to the doubts from the outside world. After the layoff list was drawn up, Denise entertainment began to implement it quickly, and all 800 employees were dismissed in the following week.
Some unwilling employees are also trying to organize to launch a class action lawsuit, which danielis entertainment naturally has no fear of.
The layoff process is strictly implemented in accordance with the provisions of the U.S. labor law, which may be morally deficient, but there is no legal transgression.
Of course, allowing these people to file a lawsuit will certainly damage the reputation of Denise entertainment.
As a result, news soon spread in Hollywood.
If this group of employees who have left danielis entertainment continue to make trouble, the doors of all Hollywood studios will be closed to them.
More straightforward, restless people, don't want to mix in Hollywood in the future.With Denise Entertainment's current influence, many people will not doubt that the company has such strength.
You know, even big names like Dustin Hoffman and Tom Cruise have suffered from danilisi's entertainment, not to mention their little fish and shrimps.
And even if we really don't plan to live in Hollywood, we still have to live. However, probably no boss will like this kind of employees who are constantly entangled with their employers after being dismissed.
What's more, there's really no violation of Daniels entertainment.
It's hard to predict the outcome of a forced lawsuit.
As a result, the so-called class action is soon over.
After another round of layoffs, Denise entertainment announced a salary increase.
Last year, the employees who were merged into danilisi entertainment from MCA had maintained a relatively low salary level during the period of MCA. In this salary increase plan, most of the employees from MCA were raised to the same level as the employees of danilisi entertainment.
After careful media calculation, we find that such a pay rise is basically equivalent to completely offsetting the labor cost saved by Denise entertainment just after the layoff.
The news also greatly reduced the negative impact of the layoff plan.
The world is never short of discerning people.
The layoff is followed by a pay rise, which makes many people understand that the layoff of danielis entertainment is not for the pursuit of profits, but more likely for the development of the enterprise itself.
After the salary adjustment, danielis entertainment is still the company with the highest average salary in Hollywood.
To a large extent, this also makes Denise entertainment employees cherish their work more, thus improving the vitality of the whole company.
In February of 1992.
In the last box office week in January, the total box office of flash, which lasted just six weeks, officially exceeded $200 million in North America, reaching $211.81 million.
"Flash" box office success, DC film space plan implementation has become more smooth.
The post production of this summer's "Wonder Woman" is coming to an end, and the preparatory work for Superman, steel bone and Batman: the rise of the dark knight is continuing.
When Simon returned to Los Angeles from Sundance, Warner began to ask questions about the "flash" sequel.
The copyright of "flash" is entirely owned by Warner. Even if Simon is left behind, warner can develop a second one according to its own idea.
However, the first episode of "lightning man" has achieved such excellent results, such a good situation, the whole time warner, even a group of people who are tit for tat with Steve Ross, dare not easily destroy.
Therefore, the actual control of the series is in the hands of Simon, a powerful producer.
Because last year, in addition to Batman: Dark Knight and flash, Warner Bros. also released box office blockbusters like Robin Hood and the end of the world. Warner's original resentment about Simon's lengthening the production cycle of the DC movie universe project is also small.
Malibu, daenerys studios.
It's February 5th.
Michael Eisner, CEO of Disney Company, rushed to the administrative district from the entrance to the north of the movie city. He learned that Simon was in Denise special effects company on the second floor of the movie city, so he was brought here again.
The appointed time is four o'clock in the afternoon. It's just right now.
Simon has just spent two hours checking out the later stages of wonder woman while he's in the model effects Department of daenerys special effects.
Although CG is the trend of Hollywood special effects, the demand for model special effects will be greatly reduced in the future, but it will never disappear.
The model special effects Department of daenerys special effects is more than just making monster models imagined by ordinary people. The model special effects department is responsible for the superhero cars of Batman Series, the large dinosaur props of Jurassic Park just started shooting, and the flying car explosion involved in large-scale production films.
While meeting with Eisner, Simon wants to see the shape of poison vine girl.
The last one is Batman: the dark knight. The two villains are clown and poison vine girl.
According to the plot that has been basically completed, the clown will also shine at the end of the opening trilogy of Batman, but for Simon, he is more looking forward to the performance of poison ivy.
The actor of poison vine girl has also been confirmed.
Simon gave the part to Nicole Kidman.
There is a little coincidence.
On the original timeline, Mia was played by UMA Thurman, who later played poison ivy in Batman and Robin in 1997.Now, Nicole has the role of MIA in the new version of vulgar novel, and she is also selected by Simon to play poison vine girl.
Simon certainly didn't mean to make such a coincidence, but compared with other actresses of the same age, Nicole is really suitable for this role in terms of acting skills, fame and even body temperament.
In contrast, Simon thinks that UMA Thurman's poison ivy girl can't be described as bad anymore. It's just nonsense. It's just that the green tights, which are very cheap, make people completely lose their fantasy of poison vine girl.
Poison vine girl should have been green, not just a green tights.
Simon's original setting was to refer to the poison ivy girl setting in the game version of Batman: the Arkham knight.
However, after testing, the shirt with only one button was obviously not suitable for actual shooting.
After the stylist's repeated adjustments, the long sleeves and hem of the "shirt" were cut off. After another attempt, the modified "shirt" turned into a more textured dark red leather "jacket". Of course, it was still short sleeves, and the length of the hem was just under the breast, which was somewhat similar to the feeling of a women's sports vest.
Actually, I thought about wrapping it with plants.
This is also more in line with many cartoon settings of poison vine girl. It's just that Simon can hardly accept the false feeling brought by plastic plants.
If after many years, actors can completely put on motion capture clothes and directly put a layer of "real plants" on CG. Although current technology can do this, the effect is not very good and the cost is too high.
Therefore, the final choice of the sexy wine red half jacket.
Poison rattan female refer to the game version of the triangle Shorts Set also changed to more conservative hot pants.
This is also out of the consideration of actual shooting. Once the character modeling in the game is completed, it will definitely not go away. In reality, it is not necessarily.
Moreover, the actual effect of triangle shorts is not as good as hot pants.
The most important skin of poison ivy girl, Simon will no longer let the character wear a cheap green tights like UMA Thurman, but really paint her skin green.
This is also the most complex part in the image design of poison vine girl.
Just a simple coat of green, it will definitely look very fake.
What Simon wants is a kind of natural green. After the audience sees it, they instinctively feel that this person should be green.
Therefore, the skin make-up of poison vine girl needs to show a kind of natural chlorophyll texture, even the details of natural human skin texture defects should be involved.
In a word, it is to give people a sense of reality.
In order to achieve Simon's desired effect, Denise special effects has specially mobilized a team composed of special effects artists and make-up artists to take charge of this matter. After several months of repeated attempts, she has recently come up with a make-up effect that gradually satisfies Simon.
When Michael Eisner enters the office area of the model special effects department, his eyes are immediately attracted by several hot and slender "poison vine girls".
If he didn't understand where he was, he might even think that he might have seen another person.
This is the final effect of the special effects team for poison vine girl.
Nicole Kidman certainly didn't have time to follow up the styling design herself. Therefore, several "poison ivy girls" were all the doubles that danielis had found.
At the bottom of my heart, I'm not very satisfied with Simon's dual use when meeting with him, but Eisner didn't show it.
As a filmmaker, Michael Eisner couldn't help admiring the technical level of Denise's special effects. A moment later, he sent away several girls who had spent four hours making up but were only seen by a man. Simon and Eisner just talked about the business.
It's about the spin off that Simon signed with Disney for the release of when Harry and Sally.
Looking at Simon's increasingly high status in Hollywood, it has been rumored more than once that Simon may no longer direct films himself.
Disney is not going to wait any longer.
After several times of communication in advance, Disney means that it hopes that the film will be replaced by a cooperative project with danielis entertainment.
Simon will definitely not direct the film himself in the near future, so he did not refuse Disney's suggestion.
Moreover, with the completion of the original ten film plans, Denise entertainment also needs to continue to develop some foreign cooperation projects, so as to ensure close connection with other Hollywood studios. So Simon asked Eisner to have a face-to-face talk today.
