"Here and here, not more than a second, keep them coherent."
"No, no, no this shot, this one here, close-up, close-up of the eye."
"Let me think about it, let me think about it, the one on the far right, this shot of Al's helplessness should be more subtle and hidden."
Angela walked around the editing room, looking at this and saying that, and then offering her opinion when the editor couldn't grasp it or needed her to make a decision. Most of the time she wanders around the editors on the far right, because the one on the far left is run by her go-to editor, Jim Ford, so don't worry.
I have to admit that Jim Ford's talent in editing is unparalleled. Whether he is working with Angela or other directors, he can quickly understand the other party's intentions and edit them. So even if he joined late, he had more rights in the editing room, and other editors did not express dissatisfaction.
The most interesting thing is that there were two editors who worked well with Angela and tried to be directors because of their accumulated experience, and the several independent low-budget films they directed were quite bright, but Jim never did. This plan.
"I like editing movies. I like this way of manipulating movies, which is different from the director's manipulation, which makes me feel more." Jim replied excitedly when Angela asked.
If that's the case, then stay here and do it well! Angela is naturally very happy. After all, Jim's excellence is obvious to all. No director will let go of such an editor who can quickly understand his intentions, but...
"This is what I should do, but... Can I take a period of paid leave after work this time?" Jim asked in a pleasing tone after Angela's praise.
Angela was a little angry and didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Although she knew that the other party's flattering expression was fake, she couldn't get angry. She just said, "Okay, I will think about it, I promise."
Jim is also doing his best to do things for himself, but she has a lot of power in the film department, but she has no position, so rashly interfering in internal affairs, although there is no problem in secret, it is not very good on the surface. But it doesn't matter, the big deal is to pay for a red envelope out of her own pocket. Anyway, she didn't do much of this kind of thing before, and she didn't lack that amount of money.
"Miss Angela?" Just after announcing the break, an employee knocked on the door, "Miss Jessica is looking for you."
"Okay, I'll come right away." When Angela heard that Jessica was coming, she didn't care to speak any more and ran out.
"Hey, Jesse!" Angela laughed and hugged Jessica, holding the other's face without caring for the eyes of others and looked at each other's face carefully: "You look a lot darker, Jesse, Is it sunny every day in Mexico?"
"It's almost like Los Angeles—I'm not that dark, am I?" Jessica stroked her cheek a little worriedly.
"Okay, it's still wheatish, it's just darker than before, and it looks healthier," Angela smiled and dragged her into the lounge, "you have to understand, Jesse, although Mexico is more Close to the equator, but it's October."
"So you can play me?" Jessica finally understood, and immediately chased and beat Angela angrily.
The two laughed and ran into the lounge, closed the door and rubbed their ears and rubbed together, chatting a lot about the two movies "Father" and "Transformers 2", Angela took Jesse The card went to see some of the edited clips.
"Wow, this looks... this looks... if there was a sound, should I..." Jessica looked at the screen in a trance, she seemed to want to say something but didn't say anything.
"What are you thinking? Your father?" Angela hugged her from behind, her eyes also falling on the screen. This scene can be said to be the most classic scene in the entire movie, so she edited it early— And it was edited by herself - the effect is very good, even she felt very much when she saw it herself.
Jessica didn't speak but grabbed Angela's hand. She hasn't told her family about her coming out.
"They will accept it." Angela, who saw it, whispered in her ear, "It will definitely be."
Jessica smiled and talked about another topic: "Tomorrow is the weekend, you won't have to work overtime, will you?"
"Oh, of course not. With my lovely Jess to accompany me this weekend, how can I be willing to work overtime?" Angela swayed around Jessica's waist in a playful manner, and Jessica's face couldn't help but sway. There was a flash of blush, but then he grabbed Angela's shoulder: "I'm sorry, Angie, although I really want to accompany you by myself, but..."
"Everyone is coming?" Angela raised her eyebrows and asked strangely.
"Yes," Jessica nodded, "this time Liv suggested... Do you have any questions?"
"Problem? Oh, of course not," Angela smiled disguisedly, "I'm very happy—everyone can sit together in harmony to chat and play, so... it will be very lively. You know, my villa is still big. some."
Is this already the third time or the fourth time? It was clearly agreed, but because of someone's suggestion, they went to Angela's villa for a party together. Well, as Angela said, everyone sits together in harmony, chatting and playing, filling the slightly empty room is very lively and happy, but... If this happens before something happens , Angela will be very welcome, after that... it's hard to say.
"Nat, can you pass that over? Yes, it's pepper, thanks."
"Kyla, try this, Annie's snacks are always unique and have a unique flavor."
"Well... it tastes good, Weiwei, how did you come up with this way of eating, it's very... interesting."
"To be honest, Annie, I'd rather have a meal with you alone in a small room. It's… a little more crowded here."
Angela, who was sitting at the top, lowered her head and pulled the food on the plate. Although everyone's conversations drifted into her ears from time to time, she had no intention of raising her head to say a few words - no one wanted to listen to her anyway. .
It's not that Angela hasn't tried it before, but no matter how she coughs and gestures, everyone still talks to each other as if she doesn't exist; if she knocks on the cup, someone will immediately use the excuse of "knock on the cup to play a song". Knock on the cup, and then everyone banged on it for a while, making Angela stare blankly and unable to do anything; as for speaking directly, it would be even more useless, as long as she uttered a syllable, everyone would be able to do anything. For the first time, he looked at her with a half-smile but not a smile, and then shook his head very neatly and let out a "sigh". Facing this situation, Angela could only shudder and shut her mouth.
And this doesn't end with dinner, after which everyone is basically talking and chatting in pairs - and their partners are also very interesting, Scarlett spends most of the time with Natalie, they Both grew up in New York; Kate and Kayla had a good conversation, they were both British; Jessica naturally had a good time with Avril because they had a common connection besides Angela and that was Lindsay; Ellie Needless to say, Jie is basically by Annie's side when she doesn't need to "serve" Angela; as for Liv, because of her little confusion, she is quite popular in any group.
These combinations sometimes become larger ones, although there may be some minor contradictions between them, such as Keira and Natalie or Avril and Scarlett, but at this time they can be put aside. All in all, it's fun.
As for Angela... Oh, you can imagine that the people around her are all in pairs, and she is sitting alone in the middle holding a cup and looking blank. If it had been changed before, she would definitely have been entangled in a stubborn manner, but now, in addition to silently sitting on the seat and watching them chatting, she also silently sat on the seat and watched them chatting.
In addition, Angela is often called over to do things such as serving tea and water, and the most extreme thing is... The girls fully showed their beauty in various entertainment activities after dinner. On the one hand, when it was time to sleep, after saying good night to each other, the door was locked tightly, some things... Only Angela could solve it by herself.
"I hate this! They can't do this!" Angela sat on the bed with the pillow and howled more than once.
With a light ding, someone knocked on the cup and wanted to speak, but Angela, who lowered her head, was deaf and still focused on cutting the chicken on the plate.
Cut the white and tender chicken into long strips and dip them in Annie's special seasoning, tsk, that's really delicious. Angela, who was intoxicated, suddenly heard a sound, a clearer and louder percussion.
"What... what?" She then reacted, and was startled when she realized that everyone's eyes were on her.
"The chicken in front of you is so delicious that you didn't even notice someone knocking on the cup?" Natalie said slowly.
"It was specially made by Annie for her, and only she can enjoy it." Alize added with a light hum, and then looked at Annie next to her: "Next time, you must prepare a maximum of three mature steaks for her, Annie."
There was a burst of light laughter all around, and everyone knew that the food Angela hated most was steak.
"I can't imagine why someone would like to eat this kind of bloody thing into the stomach!" Angela said, if you have to use beef as food, then the beef must be very badly cooked.
“It’s so weird to eat this way, it completely loses the tenderness of the beef,” Kate once said.
"I don't care so much, I only know that this kind of thing will only make my appetite greatly reduce. If the food has such half-baked things, it will either take it or kill me!" Angela's words laid the foundation on this issue" With it without me" basis.
Alright, now back to the restaurant, although a little embarrassed, Angela quickly adjusted, and after everyone laughed, asked casually, "So, what's the matter?"
"We are discussing how to spend Halloween." Jessica reminded. Although Angela was isolated, Jessica still cares about her feelings. It's just that caring like this is usually just an apologetic look, and it doesn't help much, after all, this is obviously the decision of the Lover's Union - let's call it that.
"Yeah, it'll be there in a few days." Liv continued.
"So... how did you... decide?" Angela asked tentatively.
"We were arguing just now, whether to be in New York or just in Los Angeles." Scarlett spoke at this time, and flicked her face gracefully with her fingers. Angela raised her eyebrows and suddenly realized that there seemed to be something else inside.
"Why... suddenly want to go to New York for Halloween?" Angela asked after hesitating for two seconds, "Isn't it bad in Los Angeles? Anyway, you and Nat and Liv have been here for so long."
"Because of this, I propose to go to New York for Halloween, and I want to go back and see my family." Scarlett said with a smile, "Besides, the annual Halloween parade in Greenwich Village is also a sight, go to The appearance of you and Liv in the parade is still talked about by people."
"Um... this... Kate, what do you think?" Angela temporarily avoided the topic.
"Don't you get it, Angie? Manny, Nat, Liv, they've been to New York, and we've been to Los Angeles. But I'm discussing with Kate whether to go to London." Before Kate could speak, Kayla Open your mouth first.
"It means..." Jessica said slowly under the gazes of others, "You can make a choice, go to New York for Halloween, or stay in Los Angeles?"
Angela raised her eyebrows again, she finally realized the twists and turns. Of course, this is just a small test, no matter which side she chooses, there will be no harm to anyone, it's just...
"Well," Angela, who sighed inwardly, made her own decision, "How about we all go to New York?"
She tried her best to keep her tone light: "Anyway, everyone has never played together in New York. I took this opportunity to go out to the streets in an open and honest way, and even if so many people were found, there would be no problem."
Speaking of which, Angela showed a rather sweet smile: "How about this proposal?"
After the people present quickly exchanged glances with each other, Scarlett, Natalie, and Liv of the New York trio nodded first: "We have no problem."
Following Kate, Jessica and Avril also agreed successively, and at this point, Keira only agreed.
"Then it's settled." Angela waved her hand vigorously, "Lily and Annie are going too, understand?"
"Of course I understand, Miss." Alizee rolled her eyes at her.
Angela shrugged and held up the cup: "Then, let's have a toast for the upcoming Halloween."
"Oh." Everyone's voices seemed to be scattered. Even though their expressions didn't change just now, Angela came to a conclusion from this absent-minded answer, and everyone was obviously not very satisfied with her decision.
One more year, don't be in such a hurry, right? Angela muttered depressedly in her heart. Although she didn't understand why they suddenly wanted to test herself, she was sure of one thing: tonight she had to solve it by herself again.
News of a new generation of female stars centered on Angela taking part in the Halloween Parade in New York's Greenwich Village hit entertainment headlines on the second day of Halloween - Kate, the popular actress, was flamboyantly ignored - naturally Aroused all kinds of heated discussions, who made the protagonist Angela
Of course, there is basically no market for some speculations. As Angela said, so many people participated in the parade together, even if they wanted to do something about the same-sex scandal, they didn't know how to write it, even if they confessed to her. Keira Knightley and Jessica Alba. So, even if there is speculation like that in some tabloids, almost nobody cares about it.
Although Natalie and the others were pulled by reporters and asked a few questions, the main target of firepower was Angela. Who made her new movie in the rush
As before, although Angela basically did not do any publicity after the movie started, her own reputation is a huge signboard, and Angela did not strictly prohibit any news from being revealed, and she was even occasionally stopped by reporters to ask questions. I will cooperate with them at times, so the public has some understanding of the new movie - at least they will no longer think that Angela and her father have some irreconcilable contradictions or the like.
"This is a story about the generation gap. Parents always want their children to do what they say. They have been through many storms and know when and how to protect themselves. They want their children not to be hurt, but How can a child fully understand what his parents mean? The parents have to tell him that this is not good and that is not good. But for children, they will feel that their lives are controlled by their parents, even if they know that their parents are doing such nagging for the sake of He's good, but he doesn't want to listen, he wants to make his own decisions, even if it's wrong. Then there is conflict, and then there is a period of rebelliousness, and it is not until the head is smashed everywhere that he repents. Therefore, parents and Children's communication must be careful and careful, maybe a small thing will cause a war between parents and children. And everyone is different, other people's education methods are not necessarily suitable for them, just like me, I I am very grateful for the tolerance and guidance of the father eggs. Without them, I would not be where I am now. This is what I often talk about. However, it would be inappropriate to switch to other families. Other families will definitely think: God , how can you indulge a child like that! It's all in my new movie..." Angela said during a brief interview in New York after Halloween.
This is a good commentary for the movie - at least for what was revealed - but people tend to gossip, guess, and exaggerate, so all kinds of interpretations are inevitable.
