Exploiting Hollywood 1980

Chapter 10007 The first long shot

When Daniel woke up, he found that he was lying on Master Miyagi's bed. He eagerly asked who saved him, Miyagi smiled.

"It's you? Impossible?"

"Why? I'm an old man?"

Miyagi took a cup of tea and handed it to Daniel, persuading him to drink it and feel better.

"Why didn't you tell me? You can do karate?"

"You never asked me."

"Where did you learn it?" Daniel still didn't believe it.

"Father, teach."

"I remember you saying your father was a fisherman?"

Miyagi took a sip of hot tea, "Ryukyu, all Miyagi will do two things, fishing and karate."

"Cut!"

Ronald stopped, "No, the mood here is wrong, Ralph. Daniel needs to concentrate on listening to Miyagi. In his mind, Miyagi is no longer the kind repairman, but he saved himself, and in a few moments Beaten away four master karate students."

"I see, master, master..." Ralph Mazio thought for a while, then changed his look of admiration.

"That's good," Ronald said, turning to the camera crew on the side of the camera rail. "Let's do it again."

It was a five-minute long shot, and Ronald decided not to edit it and let the two actors finish the very important opening scene of Act 2 in one sitting.

Ronald's statement to Weintraub and Susan is that there are only Miyagi and Daniel in this scene, not only telling the origin of karate, but also introducing Miyagi's different martial arts philosophies, and finally letting Miyagi The first "Aha moment" (meaning that the audience will make an aha when they see it) is said.

Actually, Ronald is a little selfish. The emotion of this scene is of course more coherent, but it is not impossible to cut into several shorter scenes.

But good directors will take a few long shots in their works, whether they are dazzling or deliberate, to show their control over the actors and the crew.

Ronald has made his third film, and it's time for a few long shots that represent his abilities. In this way, the big Hollywood studios will give him more big projects.

"!" Ronald ordered gently, as if he was afraid of scaring away the good chemistry of the two actors.

"Karate (Karate) was passed from China to Ryukyu in the 16th century. Te means hand, Miyagi of Ryukyu, my old ancestor, plus Kara, Karate (Karate)."

Morita Noriyuki corrected Ralph Mazio's posture of holding the Japanese teacup with his hand, and asked him to hold it with his hand from below instead of holding the teacup, so as not to burn his hands.

"I thought it came from a Buddhist temple (Shaolin boxing)." It was the first time Daniel heard the origin of karate.

"You watch too much TV." Miyagi shook his head.

"My mother said the same," Daniel suddenly stared at Master Miyagi, "Have you ever accepted an apprentice before?"

"No." Miyagi twisted some herbal water with a towel and applied it to the scar on Daniel's face.

"Will you accept apprentices?"

"It depends on the situation." Miyagi pretended to be reserved, and he took a sip from the teacup.

"What's the situation?" Daniel asked very eagerly.

"reason?"

"For... revenge?" Daniel touched the scar on his face.

"Daniel-san, if you want revenge, you might as well dig a grave for yourself and your opponent. Violence is always the last solution to all problems." Miyagi took a sip of water.

"Oh... Mr. Gong Cen, I'm not malicious, but I think you don't understand my problem." Daniel was disappointed to hear the clichés on the TV series.

"Miyagi, I understand your problem completely." Miyagi said while drinking tea, "Your friends are all students of karate dojo, eh?"

"Friends? Oh, yes, they." Daniel was a little uncomfortable with Miyagi referring to the Johnny quartet as "friends."

"The problem is very big, the attitude problem..."

"Ah? No, the problem is that I get beaten up by them every few days. That's my problem."

"Hey...hey..." Miyagi interrupted Daniel with disgust, "Those kids have attitude problems, karate...self-defense, can only be used for..."

"That attitude wasn't taught to them by their coach."

"I can see it," Miyagi put down the teacup, "There are no bad students, only bad teachers. Teachers teach, students learn."

"Oh, I see," Daniel began to laugh at himself, "I just need to go to the dojo and talk to their teacher, and the problem will be solved."

"Well...you can finally use your head to think about problems instead of being beaten." Miyagi was very satisfied with Daniel's understanding.

"I was joking." Daniel smiled wryly.

"Why are you kidding?"

"Because if I go to their dojo, I'm afraid they will kill me on the spot." Daniel exaggerated.

"Hmph...you're dead if you go anyway." Miyagi picked up the teacup and drank again.

"Can you go to their dojo with me?" Daniel frowned, suddenly remembering that Miyagi in front of him was a karate master.

"no."

"Why? Didn't you say it was a good idea?"

"Hey...hey..." Miyagi shook his head in disgust, "Good idea, for you, I'll go. Good idea, for me, don't worry too much."

Daniel was stunned, but he didn't expect Miyagi to say such a thing.

"Then thank you for leaving me alone. You also caused me trouble and beat them up. If you don't help me in the future, let them beat me, and I can get a little less beating." Daniel got up and angrily walked towards the door go.

"Daniel-san", Miyagi also felt that it was wrong, he had really intervened, and he couldn't just let the child be beaten again.

He got up from the stool and walked towards Daniel who stopped in front of the door.

Ronald made a push forward gesture and the coolie pushing the camera started to push the camera forward very slowly.

Miyagi's body in the viewfinder slowly grew taller as the camera progressed.

When the audience sees this, there will be a kind of psychological guidance. We always make those important figures bigger in our hearts.

"OK, I'll go." Miyagi nodded in agreement.

"Great, great, Mr. Gong Cen." Daniel happily ran back from the door.

"Miyagi... Castle", Master Miyagi handed Daniel a handkerchief soaked with herbs and asked him to apply it to his face.

"Mr. Miyagi, what are you wearing?" Daniel regained his curious look.

"Canvas, do you like it? Haha..." Miyagi lifted up his clothes and showed Daniel his belt, "Bought from JCPenney for three dollars and ninety-eight cents."

"I'm not asking about that, I'm asking about karate." Daniel thought that Miyagi had misunderstood what he meant.

"In Ryukyu, the belt means that there is no need to tie the pants with straw rope, hahaha"

"Then... this joke is funny." Seeing that Miyagi didn't follow up, Daniel thought he didn't have any rank, and turned around in disappointment to leave. "

"Daniel-san..." Miyagi stopped smiling and stopped Daniel.

Ronald made another open-fingered gesture, and the DP very slowly began to zoom the camera.

Everyone held their breath. This long shot finally came to the end. It depends on Morita Noriyuki's performance and whether it can draw a perfect ending.

As the lens slowly zooms, Master Miyagi looks taller and taller in the viewfinder.

"Karate, here..." Miyagi tapped his head with his fist.

"Karate, here..." Miyagi pointed to his heart again.

"Karate, never here."

Miyagi finally patted his belt.

"You... understand...?"

Miyagi smiled slightly, this young man has a good understanding, "Good night, Daniel-san."

Miyagi leaned forward a little, bowed and said goodbye to Daniel.

"Good night... Gong Cen... Master Miyagi." Daniel also learned to bow in a panic, and then walked out of the door.

"Tomorrow morning?" Daniel remembered before going out that he hadn't made an appointment yet.

"Ten o'clock," Miyagi replied.

"Cut!"

Ronald yelled and his first nearly five-minute long shot was done.

"Bravo!" Weintraub, who was beside him, also shouted, leading all the staff to applaud.

"You are such a genius. All American boys will love this wise mentoring dialogue." Weintraub was very happy. The second long shot, which he was most worried about, was perfectly shot.

Ronald and the director of photography confirmed that the lens was available and were very happy, "No, mainly because Ralph and Morita rehearsed very well. Every action and every dialogue here needs a sense of hierarchy."

"It's done very well, we're shooting here today." Ronald praised the two leading actors, and the actors need the director's affirmation from time to time.

Unlike drama actors, who can always find feedback on how good or bad their performances are from the audience, when making movies, in fact, most of the time the actors have only the director as an audience. Only the director can give them feedback on how well they acted.

Hearing Ronald say this, the two leading actors also let out a sigh of relief.

"Hmph, let you film critics say that I won't point out directing skills, and let you film critics say that I can't shoot long takes." Ronald was in a good mood and scolded those film critics fiercely in his heart.

The next day, the crew moved to the Cobra Club. Start filming the scene where Miyagi takes Daniel to the cobra's lair alone.

Coach Chris, played by Martin Cove, is set against a background. The philosophy he learned on the battlefield was to take no prisoners and strike first. He also started yelling at the students.

"I……"

The students also stepped up to punch, and then echoed Chris and shouted, "Kill..."

"I……"

"kill……"

The arrival of Miyagi and Daniel interrupted the training of the Cobras.

"I heard that you beat my students? You said that my karate is not as good as yours?" Chris was wearing a sleeveless Tao uniform, "Do you want a fair fight? Johnny, come and meet this 'master' ' Disciple Daniel is coming."

"Yes, master." Johnny had a dark circle in his eyes, and wanted to take revenge, he agreed loudly.

"Well... you are taking advantage too much, your dojo." Miyagi began to find reasons, and Daniel still needed training.

"Then tell me a place." Chris was full of confidence in his disciple.

"Tournament." Miyagi turned towards the wall.

On the wall is a poster, "All Valley Regional Karate Championships, December 19."

"You really have kind, old man, really kind," Chris sneered, "but I think I can promise you."

Daniel, played by Ralph Mazio next to him, has a very frightened look in his eyes, isn't he talking about making peace? Why are there still tournaments? I can't.

"There is one more little thing." Miyagi said to Chris who walked back to the dojo.

"What's the matter?"

"Boy, need, train, before, don't, hit him." Miyagi stretched out one word, one word.

Chris understood, "You're really an old man who likes to push things, but I like it. Everyone, before the tournament, don't touch that braggart... Daniel with a finger."

"Cut!" Ronald has never been so smooth since he was a director. He seems to be directing in a field, and all his ideas can be reflected in the actors.

It seems that Miyagi said in the movie how to cut a bonsai. Before shooting, Ronald had the final look he wanted to shoot in his mind.

Of course... a part of it does exist, and the few fragments he dreamed of were like this.

"Director Ronald..." A small actor, also wearing a white karate suit from the Cobra Dojo, came over to greet Ronald.

"Hi, Andrew, where's your sister?" Ronald recognized Elizabeth Shue's younger brother, Andrew, and arranged for him to play a small supporting role in the dojo.

"She went to exercise and said that she was afraid that you would call her fat." Little Andrew sold his sister without hesitation.

"Hahaha, you go back and tell her, keep it up, I'm going to shoot her most beautiful scene tomorrow."
