American fame and fortune

Chapter 24 The action scene with intense collision

The filming location of the new play is still that farm, but it has been changed from a plantation to a breeding area.

The title of the film is tentatively called "People from the City".

The story of the script is not kept secret, let alone the main actors, even most of the extras know about it.

A young man and woman came to the ranch from the center of Atlanta, and had a fierce emotional collision with several young men and women on the ranch.

The supporting role played by Martin is one of the men and women of the ranch dog.

The daily salary is 500 US dollars, and the character shooting plan is two days.

There are only three actors in the crew who have more roles than Martin. Martin and the second supporting actor Kyle share a small dressing room.

Kyle was a stocky man, not more than twenty-five years old, with a square face like a stone.

He came a little later, seeing that Martin was an unfamiliar face, he knocked hard on the dressing room opposite Martin, and said, "Man, I like to sit near the door, you go inside."

The other party shared the same dressing room as him, which meant that their status was similar, and Martin didn't mean to back down: "First come, first served."

American bullying is too common, especially this Kyle is not small.

Kyle stared at Martin's head. "Know what I used to do? Professional soccer player! I can kick a football!"

Martin followed Bruce to learn to be a civilized person in order to deal with similar situations.

He pulled back his jacket, revealing the gun bag inside in a civilized way: "I'm a part-time actor, and my job is a scavenger."

Kyle stepped back, sat down on the makeup chair inside, and hurriedly said, "I like to joke around and enliven the atmosphere. Look, now that we have reached a consensus, the atmosphere is very good, right?"

Bruce's theory of a civilized man really worked, and Martin pulled up his coat: "Don't worry, I'm a civilized man."

Kyle was scolding in his heart, the crew couldn't find anyone? People who pull gangsters to film? But there was a bright smile on his face, and sweet words on his mouth: "You are the boss, just tell me if you have anything to do."

People from the make-up team came in and were about to make up for the two of them. Martin called Jerome and asked him to keep the gun temporarily.

Because of the relationship between Martin and Andrew, the people of the Marietta Troupe got relatively high-paid background roles this time. The news will soon spread among the extras in Atlanta. The troupe can absorb more newcomers, and Jerome can naturally Get more dues.

For the sake of money, Jerome doesn't mind being a bag bearer temporarily.

After putting on makeup and changing clothes, Martin left the dressing room first, and went to the pasture drying field as the second shooting location to familiarize himself with the location and prepare for shooting.

Robert, who was wearing a workman's uniform, was in the pasture at this time.

He will serve as one of Martin's background panels for subsequent shoots.

"How is it possible? It doesn't make sense!" Robert circled around Martin: "I've inquired. Billy's role can be ranked seventh in the crew. Why did the crew choose you?"

Martin shrugged: "Because I'm good-looking."

Robert didn't believe it at all: "Don't be kidding, if you look good and get key roles, there won't be so many ugly stars." He pointed to his big head: "According to common sense, I have a better chance of becoming a star than you !"

Martin was curious: "Why?"

"Because I have a big head, a big head!" Robert said seriously, "Didn't you realize that? The bigger the head of a man in the entertainment industry, the more promising he is!"

Martin also said seriously: "Actually, my head is bigger than yours, so I have more prospects."

Robert refused to answer his words and continued: "Think about it carefully, Stallone has a big head, Bruce Willis has a big head, Russell Crowe has a big head, and Schwarzenegger has a big head!"

Martin was unable to refute, and simply used his strengths: "Can your head smash the earth?"

Robert muttered: "The earth didn't mess with me."

Martin patted him on the shoulder: "Man, for you, I decided to keep the earth."

"Thank you so much." Robert smiled wryly.

Martin could see that Robert's mentality was a little out of balance, but it was rare for him to be able to control himself.

Some extras who have suffered together for many years will do something unbelievable when they see their companions get good roles.

The assistant director came to the set at this time, guiding Martin and the supporting actress Joanna to rehearse in advance.

As a female-oriented pure love drama, Martin can't do without showing a handsome face and a strong figure.

For Martin, the play was very simple, with almost no lines.

In this scene, he only needs to lie in the soft grass to bask in the sun, and Joanna hides in the distance and peeps, and after being discovered by him, he boldly walks over.

The rest is emotional drama.

The director, Benjamin Calvin, is in his thirties and graduated from the Savannah Art Institute. He has a big beard and is very artistic.

He specifically told Martin and Joanna the precautions.

Martin has a great work ethic, no strong food this morning and a breath freshener.

Before filming, he asked Joanna: "Is there anything to avoid?"

Joanna saw Martin spraying on the breath freshener and had a good impression of him, so she smiled and said, "Go ahead."

First shoot literary dramas, and Martin is very comfortable with literary dramas, and he gets into the mood quickly.

On the contrary, the partner Joanna entered the state slowly and got NG several times.

After the literary play, go to the trailer next to it to touch up makeup and change into protective costumes.

A crowd of people gathered around during the filming.

The various regulations related to film and television in New York and California can't control the small rural production team in Atlanta. The production team is full of non-acting union members.

The total investment is only about 100,000 U.S. dollars, and the crew with a shooting cycle of less than ten days has no time or energy to talk about it.

Martin is very good at writing and playing, but he makes mistakes again and again when shooting action scenes.

In contrast, Joanna, who is a straddle in literary drama, is very good at action scenes.

Several NGs in a row, Martin is also adjusting his status.

Director Benjamin roared: "Don't tell me, you have no experience at all!"

"Don't be nervous, relax." Joanna's eyes were a little strange, and her tone was very soft: "Think of me as your girlfriend, and substitute it in."

In the next filming, Martin's condition gradually improved, and even some action scenes were shot very coolly.

At the end of the scene, Benjamin couldn't help but praise: "Martin Davis, this time is great, you are suitable for this job!"

A person like Martin would be brilliant if given some sunshine. Seeing that the director's attitude towards him had improved, he immediately went over to make a joke about him: "Director, am I a genius in acting? Or a genius in action scenes?"

Benjamin laughed and patted Martin's sharp shoulder: "I have a classmate in the Sacred Valley. If you want to go, let me introduce you."

Martin said: "I'm afraid those people will never dare to film again!"
