131. unfamiliar situation

(Oh, it’s strange, isn’t it?)

(It’s amazing. If this isn’t amazing, what’s amazing?)

(The filming location is really running really well.)

(So. I wonder if there is another filming location like this in the world.)

The atmosphere at the filming site was so awkward for the actors and production crew participating in the movie Behind the Scenes.

The biggest risk of making this film is that many people say that there are two directors.

Two directors in a blockbuster movie that costs hundreds of billions of dollars. Isn’t this an unheard of case? It was something I wouldn’t do unless I was determined to fail.

Moreover, the co-directors’ careers were also polar opposites.

Hollywood star Steven Spielberg. And Song Jae-ik, the original author and a novice director with no experience in directing by Hollywood standards.

So, of course, people said it was a push to raise Song Jae-ik at Mflix, and there were rumors that he was Spielberg’s disciple, and they expected that the fight between Song Jae-ik and Spielberg would be huge.

Of course, in normal cases. If there were many sailors, the boat would always go to the mountains.

by the way.

(Okay! That’s good.)

(Perfect.)

After filming, Jaeik and Spielberg nodded their heads at the same time.

This shot was also perfect without a single NG.

For more than a week after the first filming began, the two never had an argument.

Even though there are usually different opinions about the scene or the result of thinking.

How can a person’s production be the same from one to ten?

(Today’s shooting is also going smoothly.)

(So.)

Spielberg nodded as he checked the storyboard drawn by Jaeik.

The filming went smoothly and went smoothly, to the extent that I wondered if there was a filming site like this in my film career. Rather, it was to the point where I felt awkward in a situation so unfamiliar.

Anyway, the first thing that went well like this was that Song Jae-ik and himself matched so well, and there was no disagreement at all in the filming. From one to ten, in many aspects of filmmaking.

Because it was within the acceptable range of anyone who gave an opinion. That acceptance is not a grudging acceptance, but a certain feeling that this is better.

It was literally a breath of fantasy.

(Obviously having a perfect storyboard makes it easier to shoot.)

(Ah, it’s a bit far from perfect. But do Hollywood movies usually shoot at this speed? It seems to be pretty fast.)

(What? Usually? Hahaha-)

Spielberg laughed out loud at Jaeik’s ignorant response. Because it seems like Jae-Ik is greatly misunderstood.

(Of course, compared to a normal movie set, it’s ridiculously fast. It’s the set where everything happens. Besides, there are very few cases where the storyboard is set up in such detail. This friend says that you’re unique. hey.)

Spielberg recalled the reaction of the crew and actors when the first storyboard was attached.

‘No, that’s how you write a storyboard?’

‘How’s the picture quality? What kind of cartoon do you think you’re watching?’

‘Wouldn’t it be over if we just film and act like this? Wow. what real I watched it when I was young, but that director is not normal either.’

It was a storyboard with details to the point of obsession. Even the actors and production crew, who had done numerous shoots, were so tongue-in-cheek that they had never seen a storyboard like this before.

Because of this, there are not many NGs, and the shooting progresses quickly.

(NG-! Um. Wait a minute. Rather than acting like that there.)

furthermore.

(Aaron’s tone and intonation are really good. You can take it as it is. But, instead of his lines, his actions and atmosphere. I think it would be better to show him this way.)

Jaeik stood where Aaron Leisure was, looked at the actor across from him, and hardened his expression before entering the performance.

(He hardens his expression like this. His expression contains anger and puzzlement. What is he? Wasn’t he an enemy? Why is he helping me now? It’s a scene where I can’t properly judge the situation for a while.)

trembling fists. Hesitant arm movements, even anguished expressions. Jaeik was a director whose acting even reached a certain level.

In other words, the part that needed to be conveyed accurately, rather than just conveying the feeling in moderation and having the actor solve it, was that Jaeik could even provide an acting coach.

Of course, the actors were reluctant at first, but thanks to the acting that Jaeik personally showed, it took a long time for all the actors to nod and accept it.

That’s why Aaron Ledger tried to capture everything about Jaeik with a serious expression.

At this point, Aaron Leisure was an actor who learned a lot from Jaeik to the extent that he might be an acting teacher.

Even though Aaron Ledger is 5 years older than Jaeik and has more than a decade of acting experience.

(Ah. Ah. Yes! I know how it feels. What it feels like. Really. To be honest, I think the director can do it himself.)

(A. I am a writer, director, and content creator, not an actor.)

Of course it’s Jake. I smile moderately and pass it over.

(Okay! Then let’s go again!)

As Jaeik told me, Aaron Leisure captured the feeling of hesitation and confusion in his acting.

(Oh. Okay. That scene! Okay-!)

Seeing the performance, Spielberg clapped his hands and liked it. It was so comfortable.

Aaron Ledger’s ability to receive an ok at once after seeing that one performance that Jaeik told me about was also not normal.

Of course, this was not the end of the strange and unfamiliar situation.

(Okay- that’s it! I filmed all of today’s shoots. Thank you for your hard work!)

(Huh? Can I not take a coverage shot today?)

At the word “coverage shot,” Jaeik nodded.

(I don’t think there’s any need to take a preliminary shot. I finished filming exactly according to the Evie storyboard.)

(Really? Uh. I see.)

One week to start filming. Jaik and Spielberg haven’t taken a single coverage shot so far.

A coverage shot was an additional shot taken from an existing planned shot to expand editing options.

This meant having extra shots taken as backups during filming rather than more expensive reshoots later. It’s usually because I’m anxious. If the picture or atmosphere you thought of is not produced when you edit or edit it yourself.

But not filming it is impossible unless you have a lot of self-confidence, so I was surprised.

However, it was possible because Jaeik had already stored in his head how to shoot, arrange, compose, and edit the film, and he had already had enough conversations with Spielberg about that part.

Even if the actors and production crew are embarrassed by this unusual and unfamiliar situation.

(Let’s go! Let’s go home early when everyone is done!)

As written in the contract, Jaeik was one of the first members of the crew to leave the set when it was time to leave.

—

At this rate, it seemed that it would take less than two months to shoot all the scenes of the movie. 3 months or so? Of course, it would take more time for post-work such as applying CG and adding sound, but isn’t that Jaeik’s job?

– The boss is done!

And one day in the midst of filming in Hollywood.

“Five! Is it finally?”

– yes! Finally done!

I heard good news from the Challenge Everything Factory. The caller was Hyunjin Kim.

After building a relationship with Spielberg, Jaeik suddenly fell into game production, and the Mflix animation he participated in before filming was completed.

“If you upload it to the cloud, I will do a final inspection.”

– Already uploaded! Hehe. First we should go to sleep. Everyone went through a lot of hard work to finish it.

“You have suffered a lot. I’ll take care of the latter part. Rest well.”

After that, Kim Hyun-jin yawned and pressed the end call button, and Jae-ik entered the company cloud.

There are a total of 12 videos on the animation tab.

Jaeik obviously participated in animation production in his spare time, but he was barely paying attention to the second half because he was working on games and movies.

So it was true that there was a bit of regret.

When the play button of the cloud video was pressed, the animation was played along with the BGM.

Speed is 1.5x to 2x. It was difficult for ordinary people to properly grasp what had changed, but Jaeik quickly checked every part of the animation playing on the monitor screen.

“I tried.”

It wouldn’t have been an easy task. It is the work of improving the quality of the work while finishing the work.

However, the animation team seemed to have done all of their roles perfectly.

“Well. Well.”

It was an animation that I had already seen several times while making it, so the major stems did not change. Literally, it’s just the difference between details and whether or not it’s finished.

“great.”

over several hours. The result of checking the animation up to episode 12 was perfect itself. I think my standards are pretty high, but I passed those standards without any deficiency.

I thought it would be okay to deliver it to Mflix as it is and make it public.

Jaeik transferred all the animations in the cloud to Mflix and gave instructions for the animation team bonus to the company’s management support team.

If you have suffered, isn’t there always a price to pay?

—

(It would be better if the subtitle work is done and it is released immediately.)

Reed Hastings spit out the news that he had seen the animation when he heard that the contracted animation of Jaeik was completed.

(Isn’t that right? To be honest, I don’t think there’s anything else to do with subtitles.)

(Director Song is also crazy. To make an animation while filming a movie right now.)

To be honest, I didn’t feel particularly surprised at this level of work.

Of course, that didn’t mean the quality or content of the animation was low, of course. It was literally the best thing ever.

But now, of course, it’s Song Jae-ik. It feels like Song Jae-Ik did Song Jae-Ik again.

(He’s such a great person. To be honest, now that I’m here, I regret why I only wrote that contract. The employees are clamoring for me to keep him exclusive.)

It was a positive effect of profit and a virtuous circle. The belief of the fans that they believe in and watch Jaeik’s content.

That belief led to an increase in stock price and more subscribers to Mflix.

Reed Hastings was a little frightened.

Novels, dramas, movies, games, webtoons, animations, songs.

Is this really the range of content that one person can create?

This has never happened since Amplix was founded.

It was a really strange situation.

The contract between Jaeik and Mflix has come to an end.

No, to be precise, now I had to sign a new contract. Because all existing contracts have been fulfilled.

Indeed, what, how much, and how should Mflix present in order to reap profit? The fear of missing out.
