Chapter 1118: Preparations for "Game of Thrones" (Part 1)

After initially gathering people's hearts, Amber Video quickly got busy.

The optimization of the interface, algorithm, content storage, and playback display format has strived to adapt to the smooth transfer of paying users of the original platform as much as possible. In addition, it is to delete those film sources that are too sloppy and **** from the film library, so as to clarify the film viewing environment.

Of course, the latter's heavy-handed attack directly led to the loss of a lot of original members. There is no way. People have come here for this purpose.

After all, in comparison, in addition to the low price of Amber Video at this time, it only costs 5.7 US dollars a month (3 seconds to turn off ads), which is on par with Amazon, and the other is 8.9 for large members (free advertising, better playback format, the United States that Bian likes it very much, and the public also accepts the use of broadcast formats to classify consumption levels), other, such as the most important film source diversification, is more than 8,000 less than Netflix (the 11-year Netflix includes exclusive or distributed ones). All film and television resources are about 14,000).

And just like this, when the renovation started on the basis and the user share was continuously lost, with the addition of unique film sources such as "Bad Guy", "Micro Love", and "Three Hundred Spartans", which had been clearly divided, also New users are added gradually.

A week later, when "Thor 2" was ridden by "Furious 5" and the newly released "Bridesmaids", the box office in the third weekend was reduced by 45.2%, and the total amount of money was 20.32 million. At the same time, the global cumulative officially came 373 million.

......

While some book fans were still having a heated discussion, the No. 2 studio of the New Line Photography Base was not calm.

May 3.

The assistant producer of the crew, Bernard Hall, who was actually in charge of the drama, woke up early in the morning, sorted out his clothes, and then strode to the open space in the studio.

The cabinets on both sides are arranged in several rows, and the upper part of the space is filled with the armor, clothing, bows and arrows, foreheads, and imitation animal fur accessories that have been sorted out. These are all their achievements in the past few days, but only Completed other small parts.

According to the shooting requirements, the props team must prepare at least 200 complete sets of armor and a number of matching weapons; the tasks of the costume team are similar, and they are all prepared according to the work plan of the group performance of about 150 to 170 soldiers.

Before standing for a while, the studio became more and more lively.

With the arrival of other personnel, the team of more than 80 people continued to be busy with the rest of the work, most of which were early technical personnel such as art, props, and clothing.

At 10 am, Ryan arrived.

He just decided with the location staff yesterday where the filming and crew will be stationed. The main locations are Belfast, the capital of Northern Ireland, Malta, an island country in the Mediterranean Sea, and Iceland, which has a small number of scenes. Send someone to arrange accommodation, prop storage and the construction of a simple studio in advance.

He came here mainly for this.

"Bernard, you will arrange for a few people to go out to other places."

"good."

Ryan gave instructions on this matter, and then turned to the filming team.

"How are the directors and photographers doing?"

"Our dramas are very famous, we have a large investment budget, and many people are willing to come, and they are all at the forefront of the industry, but now, some people's work has not been completed and has no schedule, and some people still have a single episode salary issue. It's not settled, it will take some time."

After the drama was announced, even in its initial stage, it attracted a large number of professionals.

Of course, a great feature of the entertainment industry is that the more responsible the filmmakers are and the more they want to make big moves, the less they need to doubt the professionalism of each post behind the scenes, everyone is not stupid, and powerful people also need a good script and a good production environment to set off, On the contrary, only bad dramas need to cry for talents, just throw money at them.

The reputation of Firefly in the circle is obvious.

In addition, the brokerage companies are all promoting, so there is no need to worry about team configuration.

Bernard took out a small note and said: "The main diversity director is talking to three people, the Duffy brothers (the director of the "Pacific War" diversity, the art of "The Wire", and the film "Hiding", graduated from major), Alex Graves (responsible for the filming of "The Truth", "Time Traveler", "Rebirth", "The White House" and other dramas, good at politics and character characterization), the Dayton couple (direct line, Director of Little Miss Sunshine and Diaosi Men);

For the photography team, the main photographers are Remy Adwalazin (who has filmed many TV series, the most powerful is the style change, whether it is a WWII drama or a sitcom), Arnett Hemigek ?? (Director Alex's chief cinematographer), as well as their own students, we asked them what they meant, and they were all ok..."

"Well. Go get busy."

Feeling that the preparations were going well, Ryan called Lyman, but he didn't get through. He asked his assistant and learned that he had flown to Cleveland to visit the set of "Guardians of the Galaxy", and secretly complained, "So Don't care about the big stalls."

No way, things have to be done.

I asked 2DB about the casting template, and when the two came over, he was about to drive 2DB to CAA's headquarters. Just as he walked out of the gate of the photography base, he saw a few people squatting by the car smoking and chatting across the street. A man with a camera around his neck.

D-B-Weiss sat in the co-pilot and sighed a little: "This is too positive. They all followed directly to the studio, and they couldn't get in."

"It's already a good place to find out about the wind, it's not surprising."

It was the first time for the two screenwriters to experience such a battle of being chased, but for Ryan, it was not surprising at all There are many people in this group who are patient for a small fee.

Ryan silently raised the car window, obstructing the view of the outsiders, so he turned slowly and drove to the right.

The paparazzi were very alert. The moment they got out of the car, they kept looking around, but in the end they didn't stop the car because they couldn't tell if there was any "big man" inside.

Fifteen minutes later.

Johnson was not easy to show up, so another senior agent received a group of people at the front desk, "We have a complete cast of materials, and we have all the types we want, so what's your process?"

"Of course we believe in your strength, don't worry, well, this time I'm here to talk about the casting template." Ryan declined enthusiasm.

"Hi, Ryan."

Going upstairs, Brian Lord, a partner, also came. Obviously, CAA attaches great importance to it.

"How do you say it? Do you need us to provide convenience?" Brian also meant it.

"Thank you, but let's follow the audition rules."

"So, why are you here today?" Brian asked with a smile.

"A casting template that we tentatively prepared internally, this can be released."

"I see."
