Entering December, the Christmas holiday is not far away. Laila gave the company's people a big holiday under Louise's reminder, except for those who had to stay on duty, all of them went to enjoy their annual leave.
This year the Blair witch has made the company a lot of money. Although the money has not been fully obtained, it is enough to send a big red envelope to the company's employees and a few actors. When the holiday is over, the second movie will be shot, and then it is a luxury to have a good rest.
Laila doesn't want to go to Grandpa's side for the time being. The plot of "Chain Saw" is always spinning in her mind. If it is not completed, she believes that she will not invest in whatever she does.
Speaking of it, she has never seen the translated name Chainsaw Horror since before, because it is easy to confuse it with the previous "German Chainsaw Massacre" or be used as a parody. In fact, there are no chainsaws in the whole movie, just a small saw and not a few shots.
The name of the movie "SAW" actually comes from jigsaw (puzzle). In the movie, the jigsaw leaves a piece of jigsaw pattern on the deceased, hence the name.
Laila wanted to make this movie, but after much deliberation, she still used the original name of "SAW". As for what ghosts would be translated into foreign countries, she was too lazy to care. Seeing is believing.
Compared with Blair the Witch, this movie still has some plot, and it takes a different route, using visual impact and various organs to scare the audience. Therefore, the success of SAW depends mainly on the ability of the prop maker.
After much deliberation, Laila called Louise and asked her to call the props master Todd to where she lived, and wanted to talk to him. But I didn't expect that old Todd would be ill at this critical moment. He was still very ill. It was his son 'Gaby Carter' who came to replace him.
Laila was a little disappointed, but she still received Gaby, a young prop artist who was only sixteen years old but was said to be better than his father.
"Wow, it's really beautiful here." After Gaby entered the mansion in Beverly Hills, his eyes widened, and he made exclamation sounds from time to time.
"Thank you." Laila asked him to sit in the living room "How is Todd's health? You know we need him."
Gaby took a drink "He is still like that. He has suffered a waist injury before, and he has some days every year. Let him lie on the bed honestly. Don't worry, even if he can't get up, I can finish his job." He raised his brows and looked at Laila "You're not going to fire him because of this, are we? I really need this job to eat." When
he spoke, it was clear that Laila's eyes were looking at an exploiting capitalist.
However, Laila is a person who has lived for two lives, and how can she not understand his true intentions.
"Don't test me. As long as you can really meet my requirements, even if you are only sixteen years old, I will give you the treatment you deserve. But the shame is also on the front. If you are incapable, you will not be able to complete the work I gave you. , Even if you are Todd's son, I will fire you."
"Deal." Gaby stood up and patted her palm, said nonchalantly, "The stubborn old man in my family is always reluctant to admit that I am better than him. You will see what I can do with my chance!"
Laila twitched her lips "If you want an opportunity, you have it now, and I hope you won't let me down."
"You won't regret it!" he Lift his chin confidently.
Laila really wanted to know where his confidence came from, whether it came from his strength, or the rebellion and arrogance of his young people, and the fastest way to answer this question was to try it himself.
"Let me see what you are capable of." Laila took out a pencil drawing "First of all I need a doll."
Gaby took the drawing paper and looked at the doll drawn on it and whistled "Cool! This is! That's exactly what I want to do. I think we will work together very happily."
Laila smiled and looked at him "If you did it, what color do you plan to use? I need an evil and weird character. The movie will occupy an important position, and perhaps it will also become a collection in thousands of homes. "
The collection she said refers to the surroundings related to the movie. There are not many opportunities for a movie to really recover its capital from the box office. Most of them come from DVD, cable TV and peripherals.
Laila knows very well what effect this BILLY doll will bring after the movie hits, and how many people will like it, how can she know how to make money and make preparations early?
Gaby felt his chin for a while and thought "I will make it have a white paper face with red eyes and red lips. The high cheekbones on both sides of you are really cool, and the mosquito coils on it are the same. How about the circle painted in red? Using pure white to set off the scarlet red will surely make many people love and hate it!"
Laila was surprised that he could tell what the doll really looked like in one mouthful. It seems this little guy It is indeed very standard.
"You're right, it's a good idea." She took the crayons and replaced the black spots with red where he said.
Gaby frowned as he looked at the gradually forming baby "Why do you still think that something is not enough?"
Laila asked with a smile , "Where is not enough?"
Gaby thought for a while, and suddenly remembered when he saw his eyes " By the way, eyes! It's just that the red eyeballs are not enough. I think I should just paint the white part of the eyes black. Jet-black black with blood-like red is the kind of eyes that demons have, right?
If Laila didn't hold the painting in her hand, she would clap her hands and praise the idea "So?" She blacked out the white part of her eyes twice.
"Yes, that's right!" Gaby eagerly approached her, holding the album as if he saw a treasure "Look, how attractive it is! I'm going crazy about it!"
Laila laughed "I don't doubt this at all." He was crazy enough now. But because of this, she recognized him in her heart, at least in the aspect of being a doll.
"Next, I still need some props."
Laila didn't take out the previous drawing, but directly said what she wanted. After knowing the genius of Little Gabby, she didn't want to imprison his innovation with things from her previous life. Who can guarantee that what he thought of would not be better than before?
She stated what she needed one by one, and Gaby took notes while recording, and raised her own questions from time to time.
He has many questions, but each one points to a key point. Sometimes he expresses his own thoughts and makes Laila think of new ideas. And over time, the harmony between the two of them from the beginning became more intense.
I don't know if Gaby's awe of the boss Laila, has disappeared or if it involves his work, he has become stubborn. In short, when Claire heard the noise outside come out, all she saw were two People are arguing about a prop.
