Although the shooting has encountered difficulties in props, scenery and other aspects, compared with the first two weeks of shooting, the operation of the crew is much smoother. After a period of running in, various types of work have gradually found the rhythm of cooperation.

    Most importantly, Murphy, an inexperienced director, is making great progress.

    In the third week of filming in the San Fernando Valley basin, another young actress joined the cast. This is an extras named Emily. The pay is only $100 a day, which is now the bottom line of the cast Union.

    The actor has only one scene, and is assassinated by photographer Jeff, played by James Franco at the beginning of the film.

    The crew left the studio for the first time. Murphy put the set near the lake in front of the house and chose a grass surrounded by bushes as the shooting site.

    The crew is too simple. You don''t have to think about equipment like a special make-up Trailer. The actors can only make up in the house and then come back here.

    In addition, Murphy wants to use the overhead photography in the opening play, and the effect of the boom shooting is undoubtedly the best, but renting the boom car costs a lot of money, so he simply let people drive the Ford car, and plans to climb on the car by himself for manual shooting.

    The shooting in the last two weeks has cost a lot of money. While achieving the shooting effect, Murphy must consider more practical expenses.

    Today''s weather is very good. The sky is blue and the light is abundant. From time to time, there will be a damp breeze blowing on the nearby lake, which will bring some coolness to the dry air.

    Under the command of Murphy, nearly ten members of the crew are busy with their own work. Three interns, led by Paul Wilson, act as porters and transport films, equipment and other equipment from the other side of the house to the studio.

    The black Ford car was simply refitted by prop master MIA Sucre. A shooting platform made of wood and plastic was added to the roof of the car. Murphy stood on the platform to direct the crew.

    Because the actor is still making up on the other side of the house, he put more energy on the construction of the temporary film set.

    There are two extra viewers in this shooting. Bill rosis, Kerry Mulligan''s agent, brought a friend here, who is also the agent of the temporary actress. Murphy has just chatted with them and allowed them to watch the shooting. Anyway, small groups and projects like him are not afraid of trouble like spoilers.

    By contrast, it''s even worse to have no attention.

    "How''s it going?"

    Standing at the edge of the Bush, Bill rosis looks at Murphy and asks the middle-aged man next to him, "Mike, I told you about him some time ago."

    The man named Mike shook his head slowly. "How can I see it now? But... "

    He thought about it for a moment and said, "very young, young often means lack of experience."

    "He''s very inexperienced." Bill rosis had been with Kerry Mulligan at the beginning of the film crew. Naturally, he could see the troubles encountered in the shooting. "He was a rookie to the letter. At the beginning of shooting, he made a lot of basic mistakes."

    Mike raised the corner of his mouth and shook his head again. He didn''t seem very interested in people like Murphy.

    "But his progress is amazing!" Bill - rosis or looking at Murphy side, "he always can find the first time the problem, with the fastest speed to find a solution, summed up the lessons learned, after almost will not make the same mistake."

    "Have a look." Mike won''t jump to conclusions. "Let''s see."

    After a while, makeup artist Jack Watson accompanied James Franco and extras Emily with his bag. James Franco was dressed in gray and glasses, while Emily looked miserable. Her face was full of scars, her mouth was crooked, and several places were dotted with blood stains.

    Emily''s make-up is excellent. Among the behind the scenes jobs employed, Murphy is most satisfied with Jack Watson. Unlike other people with mediocre abilities, this one is the one who doesn''t meet the right opportunities.

    After calling James Franco and Emily for a few simple instructions and asking about the preparation of each department, Murphy started the trial shooting. Due to the limited rehearsal times of the two actors, the trial shooting was not smooth, and Murphy also had to adjust the appropriate angle of the overhead shot. Finally, the Ford sedan car stopped at the left front of the spot where Jeff committed the violence, from which he could fully capture lying on the grass Emily''s miserable situation.

    Unlike before, Murphy used black-and-white film to shoot. After all, the victim was a minor, and some of them were too sensitive. Black and white pictures could better control the scale of shooting.

    Like scars, blood and other conditions, presented in black and white film and color film on the feeling is completely different.

    Emily is younger than Kerry Mulligan, and Murphy wants to avoid the film, so she becomes NC-17.

    "Jack, make up for Emily."

    After a trial shoot, Murphy called the extras over and said, "Amy, you have to be more miserable.""Well!" Because it was inconvenient to make up, she just snorted.

    James Franco has only one frontal shot in this scene, and after such a long time of shooting, his state is guaranteed.

    After Jack Watson finished making up for Emily, Murphy picked up the camera and yelled, "attention, departments! We''ll start shooting in five minutes. "

    When the actors were in place and the staff of each department were ready, Murphy adjusted the camera and started.

    Standing on the top platform of the Ford car, the camera tilts down at the 45th angle to give a close-up of Emily''s PigHead face.

    She has blood on her face and injuries everywhere. Even so, she can still vaguely see the original pretty and lovely appearance. It has to be said that Jack Watson is really good at making up. Such a scene can also convey a kind of message, who beat such a lovely girl like this? How could you have the heart to make her look like this?

    "Help Help... " The girl''s voice was weak, and she seemed to be out of breath at any time. Only her bright eyes looked at the front praying, "please Please Please let me go... "

    A huge fist broke into the camera, hard "hit" the girl''s face, followed by a man''s figure, he turned to the camera side, Sven''s face with a strange ferocity, "this is not to accept my pursuit of punishment!"

    With that, he took out a wallpaper knife and stared at the girl''s throat

    “cut！” Murphy stopped, pointed to the driver''s seat of the Ford, and said to Jessica chastan, "change to the front right, I''ll take more pictures."
