Hollywood: Great Directors Starting with Saw

Los Angeles, USA, 1991.

The University of Southern California, also known as the University of Southern California, is the most famous school of motion picture arts in the United States.

This school has sent a series of film industry talents such as directors, editors, and photographers to Hollywood.

In the school, on the playground at this time, a pair of handsome men and beautiful women are telling something under the onlookers of countless people.

"Kevin, let's break up."

Pera, who had a top green tea face, said grimly, looking at Kevin's handsome face in front of her, she felt a little regret in her heart.

Steve Kevin, orphan, director genius, his short films have been praised by countless professors in the school.

Such a genius, in a sense, is promising.

Such a potential man, she should not have given up no matter what.

It's a pity...

Pera glanced at the man who was gathered around the crowd and cast adoring glances at her, and smiled sweetly in return.

No matter how genius is, it is always just a potential stock.

At Nanjiakai University, there are many directors with the name of genius every year, but 95% of them end up failing.

The reason for all this is simple, Hollywood does not accept losers.

They only have one chance.

And as a new director, if you want to succeed in the first step of the film, this difficulty... It's just too big.

If Kevin is not an orphan and has money in his family, then even if he fails, his family can still give him more opportunities.

But as an orphan, it was very difficult for him to raise funds even for the first step of the film, let alone other issues.

And that man, but the own son of a Hollywood Fox executive, can be by his side, and the success rate of his desire to become a big star has greatly increased.

Especially the man, who promised him not long ago that as long as he was with him, he would be able to get the position of the heroine of a small-cost movie.

Thinking of this, Pera's heart became even more determined.

...

Looking at the foreign woman in front of him suddenly said that they broke up, Kevin looked confused, and in his mind, a memory suddenly appeared at this moment.

His name is Chen Daoxuan, and he is a small director in 2020.

In his memory, in order to get money for making new movies, he accompanied investors to drink a lot of alcohol in KTV, and finally fell drunk in KTV.

In the last scene after getting drunk, he could only say one sentence, so big and white.

That's right, the heroine is so big and white.

As for the relationship behind it, there is no need to say more.

How could he suddenly come to this group of foreigners.

Confused about all this, Chen Daoxuan, who was anxious to get rid of his current situation, nodded involuntarily and spoke English.

"Good!"

......

Three days later, in the dormitory.

Steve Kevin finally straightened out what happened and where he was now.

He, Chen Daoxuan, was a third-rate small director in Hua Guo in his previous life.

He, Steve Kevin, is a genius in the eyes of the professors at the University of South California.

The memories of the two are entangled and make him.

Of course, although he has two memories, he is mainly Chen Daoxuan.

However, in the United States, he certainly cannot use the name Chen Daoxuan.

Therefore, in the future, his name will be Steve Kevin.

"Kevin, are you all right?"

The eight-meter-old man on the side asked with concern.

Since Steve Kevin was broken up by Pera three days ago, he has become dumbfounded.

He didn't like to talk, so he lay quietly in bed for three days.

It's hard not to worry him.

"Thanks, I'm okay, I just figured something out."

"By the way, Mitt, do you want to finish your graduation project with me."

A smile appeared on the strong man's face:

"Of course, we are the best partners!"

Kevin's face also had a smile on his face.

In the past three days, he did not say a word, in addition to combing through the two memories, he was thinking more about his future path.

He has been a director in his past life and present life, and the path he chose in this life is also a director.

What he wants to do is become a big director like Steven Spielberg.

This means that he must continue to succeed in the film industry.

For directors, real success doesn't lie in art awards.

It's about the box office.

No matter how many art awards there are, if he fails three films in a row, no one will dare to invest any more money in him.

But as long as the box office has been successful.

Through this position, he can expand his network step by step, earn money and gain status.

The first step is to complete a perfect graduation project.

That is, a movie.

That's right, Kevin's goal is straight at the movie.

The normal growth path of a director may be from editing, photography and other work, and then the assistant director and director grow up step by step.

And such a path, normally, it takes at least five to ten years to come out.

He didn't have time to wait for the bitter end, and the memories in his mind were only available for thirty years, and if he could not achieve a high enough status and money in these thirty years, it meant that all the memories of the prophets in his mind would be ineffective.

Such an opportunity was in front of him, and how stupid he would be if he missed it.

After agreeing with my roommate and partner to complete the graduation project together.

Kevin immediately began the retreat, picking up pen and paper, and recalling in his mind which movie he should choose.

As a student who has not yet graduated, even if he has a certain reputation in school, no one knows about it outside the school.

This means that it is difficult for him to pull big investments.

Therefore, a film with a small cost became his choice.

Among the small-cost, easy-to-pop movie genres, Kevin instantly thought of horror movies.

Blood and sex are the two things that are the easiest to attract people's attention, and horror movies are undoubtedly a more perfect theme for integrating the two.

But today, what Kevin wants to choose is not a tertiary film with a horror film shell, but a real classic horror movie.

As

a classic horror film produced by Lionsgate, he is familiar with all the plots, layouts, and shooting techniques of the movie.

This is also the method that many directors learn, that is, for the step-by-step analysis of shooting techniques for certain films, analyzing the picture frame by frame.

And in his previous life, Chainsaw Horror was undoubtedly one of his key analyses.

But before everything can begin, all he needs to do is produce a detailed project plan.

Hollywood movies have never been an art, but a film industry.

This means that if he wants to attract investment, a project plan that looks feasible is essential.
