25 First discoveries of the cinema world
Friday, April 28, 2006
09h15am The security guards who guard the entrance of the production studio are today very tense. Two famous actors have already arrived, succeeding the great director who is in charge of this movie. The tension on their faces is real, the slightest mistake is intolerable. To let approach worse to allow the journalists who camp since 06h00am in front of the studio to enter would certainly cost them their place. They are surprised to see what approaches them after these latter have moved away to let what appears to be a convoy. A sublime car surrounded by two big series 7 German stop at their height and although nothing is visible this time on their faces, they already anticipate to find out who is the person inside this car. Unfortunately for them, only the front window opens and the driver of the luxury limousine presents them the pass.
After the 3 cars have crossed the crossing point, their curiosity is the strongest, they give up their post and they head quickly to the security pc to discover who is the mysterious VIP. In front of the studio where the technicians move like crazy bees, the cars stop their progress then stop. The driver goes down to open the left rear door but he does not have time to reach it because the door opens itself very quickly and a little girl jumps out of the car and runs away laughing, pursued by a beautiful half-caste half-asian. They know this little mischievous girl who unleashes passions and who after his passage in a talk show is a sensation on the internet. The very active and fun Lara Eve has just arrived and it seems that she is already starting her tomfoolery.
09h25am In the studio, actors discuss among themselves their last roles, technicians are busy and the filmmaker is annoyed because nothing goes as he wishes. He only needs this studio for a very short time, but this morning his anger exploded. Two cameras were missing, a cameraman was supposedly ill, and to add to a little complication, the ill-awakened makeup artist had forgotten half of her products at home and had to leave in emergency. The icing on the cake is this troublemaker that the CBS sent, who do not know how to stay in his place.
"Listen to me, Nelson, since this morning everything is wrong and you tell me you have not been able to rent all the necessary cafes, shops and hotels on the way to the car? For moron reminder, we decided to shoot a realistic movie and that's the reason we do without a production studio. How can I work properly if behind me I have a team that is made up of incompetent people."
While the filmmaker screams on his assistant the metal door is pushed violently. Everyone stops their current activities and many pairs of eyes fix this point. What they see amuses them a lot and relaxes them a little. A blond-haired girl wearing pink heart-shaped sunglasses matching her dress, walks over to them shaking her hips like unsavory women do. An older girl catches her and raises her to hug her, ending this entertaining caricature.
The filmmaker knows that leading this little girl will certainly be a real test but she is perfect. She has everything to become a star and if he manages to channel the energy of this child, his performance may be incredible. He has never been so certain of these presentiments concerning one of his actors until now and he always falls right. He approaches her determined to meet this young miss with a strong character.
Lara looks around her and this time, no ugly dog, no grass or little mill. "Maï, you saw, it's really bad. There is not even an ugly dog here."
Maï knows who the man is within 3 meters of her and when she hears Lara's words, she fears that this great filmmaker will take him badly. But not the filmmaker advances then squats in front of Lara. "Hello Lara Eve, I'm Michael Mann, I'm the filmmaker of (Mind Slippage), call me Michael it will be easier. I am very happy to meet you. Seeing you in the advertisement in which you played, I absolutely wanted you to be part of the casting of this movie. Tell me you know a little about the world of cinema."
Lara looks around and notices that there are many more people than during her publicity. The cameras and all the other things are also much more numerous. This does not particularly worry her, but what surprises her is why all these people are so upset. "Hello Michael, call me Lara it's going faster like that. No, I only know the cameras and that's it. Say, why do all your people seem so worried? I'm here so no reason to worry."
This self-confidence and this way of declaring it that way at this age is unheard of, according to him. Michael Mann used to the atmosphere that prevails on filming and especially the first day because everyone has to find his place, had not noticed anything special but looking more objectively, he realizes that indeed, the tension is palpable . "You know, before an actor makes his first test camera, a lot of things need to be put in place. You see the gentleman holding the big stick there. It is called a perchman, at the end of the stick, a microphone is installed and his job is to well placed his microphone. But it's not that simple in the air. It must take into account the place where it is, if there is wind or no, the time of day and each place returns a different sound. So tests should also be done to verify that the microphone is well placed and when the microphone is well placed then when everything is good the perchman must not move at all. It's a very hard job. As you see, right now, he's looking for the perfect place to put his mic."
Oh, so many things to consider. "I will not do that because I do not know how to stay still. It must be a very annoying job. Say, why can not I play today?"
He smiles and stands up. He has a lot of work and although he would like to stay a little near her to tell him a little more about his world, he does not have time. "I asked you to come today so that you can observe. I would like you to get used to the filming and look closely at the actors, so you can learn from them. I have to go back to work Lara. Ask this gentleman if you want something, he can certainly meet your needs. Walk around if you wish and ask questions to the various technicians, actors and staff members. I'll see you a little later."
I did not think it was so complicated, but it's going to be fun to ask lots of questions. Seeing the little fury fleeing again, Maï sighs. "Lara, do not run, there are cables everywhere on the ground. Lara come back here."
