Exploiting Hollywood 1980

Carrie Maloney plays Samantha, the sister of the two heroines. She appeared before Ronald in a magenta and turquoise cheerleading outfit.

"Kellie, this is great. We'll shoot you and your sister Regina at home in a moment. You just woke up from your sleep and don't know what's going on outside, and Regina is from the movie theater. Back, her boyfriend was killed by a zombie attack, so she was in a state of shock.

I want a pair of sisters with opposite mental states. One has accepted the cruel fact that there are many zombies attacking human beings in the apocalypse, and the other thinks the world is normal and worried about the next day's date. . "

"All right." Kelly nodded immediately and agreed. The opportunity Ronald gave her this time made her grateful.

Kelly Maloney also played a cheerleader in Ronald's previous film, Fast-Paced Richmond High. Wearing a similar cheerleading skirt, she danced sexy on the football field.

The actress, who debuted with the Shakespeare Company in New York, has had resident roles on daytime soap operas. "Fast Tempo" was her first film attempt, and she has never received an offer since. Soap operas were tragically cut in half at the end of 1982. If Ronald didn't pull her, they would be out of action.

"Recording? Camera?!"

An hour later, the lights and actors were ready, and at the command of Ronald, the cameras began to roll.

Regina, played by Katherine Mary Stuart, breaks through the zombie barrier and returns home, opening the door. The red light outside the door shone in, and a strange dark red atmosphere after the death of the comet enveloped her home.

"Samantha? Doris?" Regina began to test whether there were survivors at home.

She stepped into the room, "Samantha?"

"what……"

"what……"

Samantha, played by Kelly Maloney, screams with Regina.

"cut!"

Ronald is very satisfied with the performances of the two actresses. Both of them seem to have improved their acting skills. After a few shots, Ronald is satisfied with the first one. Sometimes it is for insurance or changing. One way of acting is called the second rule.

"Director, do you want the second one?" Kelly Maroney took the water glass handed by her assistant and took a sip with a straw.

Ask Ronald.

"Well, when you're surprised, I hope there's a difference. Regina already knows the dangers of zombies, so she's called Samantha with worry and fear.

And Samantha didn't know anything about the situation outside. She was a teenage girl, and she answered her sister with an impatient attitude. "

"No problem, let me prepare, fortunately, I can come to the second one for filming."

Kelly Maloney and Catherine Mary Stuart both breathed a sigh of relief, then sat on the sofa and chatted about the scene.

Ronald looked at the actors who played the two sisters, and the costumes had a comical feel. The elder sister Regina is wearing a silver top, which makes her look more rational and smart. Sister Samantha is a brighter turquoise and magenta, suggesting she is the more "brainless" of the sisters.

"Why, when you were filming daytime soap operas, didn't you have a second line?" Ronald asked casually.

"No, if something goes wrong on the set, we have to continue the show. Every day, we have to shoot an hour-long daytime soap opera in the market. If you don't pick up the plot dialogue, if you get stuck, we will be fired. There's no comfort in filming with you." Kelly Maloney stretched her legs on the sofa and glanced at Ronald.

"Daytime soap operas are very particular about improvisation. Sometimes characters forget their words, or some unexpected situations have to be covered up by their own improvisation, otherwise the pressure is too great." Katherine Mary Stuart also said.

"Actually, this movie of mine is a small production. If any of you forgot the words, you can improvise a bit to save film and time, so I don't have to do it again." Ronald glanced at the two beauties, especially Kelly Maroney's long legs told them a word.

"Article 2, recording? Camera?!"

"Samantha?" Regina began to look for her sister.

"Here... ah!"

"what!"

Samantha opened her bedrooms, and the two suddenly saw each other and screamed in fright.

"Don't do this, you scared me out of a heart attack."

"cut!"

Ronald felt that this one felt better, and hurriedly asked the field recorder to write down this one.

Two actresses who have acted in daytime soap operas are actually very suitable for such low-cost small productions. There is not much play in acting, but it also meets the requirements of general scenes. Best of all, it's fast to shoot.

"Next shot." Ronald ordered the camera crew to move the camera, and the lights began to be set.

In this scene, after Samantha was frightened by her sister, she talked nonchalantly about what happened last night. She was slapped by her stepmother Doris, her teeth were a little loose, and she was sleeping in the bedroom. She is going on a date with her boyfriend today.

"!"

"Yesterday she slapped me, and I was up late. I have to meet my boyfriend." Samantha complained to her sister, then picked up the big speaker recorder on the table and started playing her favorite music.

She took the loudspeaker tape recorder, stepped out of the bedroom with dancing steps to the rhythm, brushed Regina's side, and found that her silver top was covered with dirt, "Oh, you look so bad."

The camera shot from behind Samantha, from a low camera. Below the cheerleading skirt are two healthy and powerful long legs, pink socks and pink canvas shoes.

Carrie Maloney, who played Samantha, turned, her legs were tense, and she was full of the beauty of a young girl. The rhythmic legs took a step and walked out of the camera to the left.

"Cut! Very good." Ronald also looked over from behind the camera, a scene sure to please the teenage audience.

After shooting the sisters, the camera crew moved to Samantha's bedroom and began filming the stepmother Doris slapping her stepdaughter Samantha before the comet came the night before.

Sharon Farrell, who plays stepmother Doris, has the same makeup as yesterday, red nail polish and a velvet collar around her neck. A vicious image of a stepmother in a wealthy neighborhood.

Kelly Maloney changed into a tight yellow yoga outfit with red leg warmers from Ronald's house.

"Three strokes in total," Ronald told the two actresses.

"First Doris slaps Samantha with her right hand when she hears Samantha's words. Then Samantha returns a slap with her left hand, and finally Doris follows Samantha's mouth with a right slap. fist."

Ronald then runs behind the camera with Kelly Maloney on the left and Sharon Farrell on the right. The hands of the two slapping each other are on the far end of the camera.

"!"

"What party? Can I look at the neighbor Chuck across the street and put his hand in your panties?" Samantha asked her stepmother for the camera.

This shot is an over-the-shoulder shot, taken from behind the shoulders of Sharon Farrell, who plays her stepmother.

"Chuck is a good man. There's nothing wrong with your father helping me when he goes to a tropical island," replied the stepmother.

"Doris, you're a natural horny, don't need Chuck to seduce you."

"Crack!" Sharon Farrell slapped her in the face.

"cut!"

The slap is a traditional Hollywood shooting method. The moment the hand is close to the opponent's face, the opponent starts to dodge.

When editing in post, cut to the frame before the other person's face starts to move. Such a montage allows the audience to supplement the plot of the slap in the face, although they did not see the slap really hit the face.

Ronald was behind the camera and saw it all. Sharon Farrell's slap was good, but Kelly Maloney didn't wait for the other's hand to get close to her face before she started dodging. This is also the normal reaction of actors who have never made such a scene.

"Let's rehearse, Sharon's hand is here, and you start hiding." Ronald asked the two actors to try the timing of the fake.

After they tried it twice in slow motion and thought it was okay, Ronald started the second shot.

"Doris, you're a natural horny, don't need Chuck to seduce you."

"Crack!" Sharon Farrell slapped again.

"cut! You're hiding early." Ronald peered out from behind the camera, "Kelly, you have to slow down."

"Doris, you're a natural horny, don't need Chuck to seduce you."

"Crack!" Sharon Farrell slapped the other person's face this time, and Kelly Maloney hadn't avoided it yet.

"cut! Take a ten-minute break."

Several shots failed to capture the perfect fake, and Ronald was a little restless. It is generally best not to shoot more than three times, after which the actors will start to lose their natural emotional responses.

This scene is not only a slap in the face, but also a conversation between the stepdaughter and the stepmother, saying that the stepmother had an affair with the opposite man Chuck, there is a kind of emotional reaction of the stepdaughter's rape and the stepmother's anger that needs to be taken into account.

"Kelly, you still need to get used to the rhythm of this slap, and we'll start later. You take a break and relax." Ronald whispered to actor Kelly Maloney, for fear that she would give birth inappropriately. emotions, making the situation worse.

Kelly Maloney smiled when she saw that Ronald was obviously very anxious, and he had to be careful to please herself. This director is really good, he can get the role without throwing his arms around him. And the camera you give yourself is very sexy.

Although the production is a little smaller, directors who respect actresses and give themselves a chance to appear are not common in Hollywood. Don't hurt him yourself. "

"Director, why don't you really fight?" Kelly Maloney said sincerely.

"Really?"

"Yeah, I appreciate you didn't yell at me, I was fired from the producer long ago for doing that on a daytime soap.

This slap is the only scene facing the camera. I'm afraid that if I cheat, I won't be able to show a real response, and I don't know how long it will take to get it right. We're ready for a real fight. Then continue. "

"Sharon?" Ronald looked back at Sharon Farrell, who was playing opposite.

"Director, there are times when a movie is meant to be a real fight. Don't worry, I've dated Bruce Lee before, I've learned boxing, I know how to slap hard, but it's actually close."

"Okay," Ronald didn't expect the actor to trust him so much, so he used real hits to shoot this scene.

"!"

"Doris, you're a natural horny, don't need Chuck to seduce you."

"Crack!" Sharon Farrell slapped her face and pulled back slightly when she approached Kelly Maloney.

This time, Kelly Maloney naturally swayed to the left after her face was slapped.

"what!"

"cut!"

"Ice," Ronald called.

The assistant took an ice pack and put a cold compress on Kelly Maloney's face.

"How is it?" Kelly Maloney looked at the director of photography for the first time, wanting to know the results of the shooting.

Director of photography Arthur Albert nodded.

Ronald passed.

"Oh yo." Kelly Maloney opened her mouth, and this time, although the force was withdrawn, it still hurt.

"If it's ok, let's go to the next one, Samantha fights back against her stepmother Doris."

This time the camera was standing next to the two of them, and the slap was blocked by Sharon's face, so there was no need for a real slap.

After Samantha stood up straight, she raised her right hand and slapped Sharon Farrell.

"Ah!" Sharon Farrell shook her head before slapping her face. As expected of a woman who has dated, the strength and speed of this head swing are okay.
