Chapter 411 Legal Review

Please give me a monthly ticket and a recommendation ticket!

In the afternoon, Murphy arrived in Burbank, where there were a large number of studios. The giant studio converted from the Hughes Aircraft Factory was the best among them. Its area, height and volume are among all studios in Burbank, and it is very suitable for building some tall and wide scenes.

Without much effort, Murphy entered the studio. Because the crew was filming, he did not look for Robert Downey Jr. with the motion capture device hanging, but just stood outside and watched quietly.

Here is an action scene where a red-haired woman in a black tight uniform kept showing off her sexy figure in front of the camera, and then changed into a shorter male stand-in to complete a series of difficult fighting actions on her behalf.

"Black Widow?" Murphy only glanced at it and guessed the identity of the protagonist of this scene. After all, Scarlett Johnson's face was not unfamiliar at all. "There is a Black Widow in "Iron Man"?"

He was a little confused.

The sound of footsteps sounded from the side, and Murphy turned to see. Robert Downey, the little one with the motion capture device, probably saw him and walked over.

When he came to his side, Murphy pointed to Scarlett Johnson in front of the camera, "She is playing the role of the Black Widow?"

"Yes, it's the black widow." With Robert Downey Jr.'s character, even if Murphy doesn't ask, he will take the initiative to say a lot of words. "Agent Natasha Normanoff was decided to join Marvel Pictures at the end of May."

He raised his hand and tried to pat Murphy on the shoulder. When he saw the dark blue motion capture suit he was wearing, he put it down again and continued, "The Black Widow. Woman appears in this video, all because of you."

Murphy glanced at Robert Downey Jr. but did not ask for the specific reason. Even if he didn't ask, Robert Downey Jr. would take the initiative to say it.

Sure enough, Robert Downey Jr. couldn't stop at all. "After your "Body of Steel" was a success, Gale's Wonder Woman was highly praised and became a recognized highlight of the film. Marvel Pictures believed that this model could be learned from, so she found it..."

He gestured to Scarlett Johnson with his chin, "I found that New York girl to play Agent Natasha Normanoff."

Murphy retracted his gaze and turned to Robert Downey Jr. "How does it feel to be a Tony Stark?"

"I'm tired, very tired!" Robert Downey Jr. sighed long, "For this role, it's simply a torture to take two hours of fitness every day."

"I'm still the worst." He pointed to Scarlett Johnson who walked to the camera again. "Her role was temporarily joined. For this role, she had to spend four hours a day to exercise and practice some fighting routines, and her arm seemed to be injured."

In front of the camera lens, Scarlett Johnson made a rolling move on the spot, and then posed for a sexy poss...

Regardless of the actress' reputation, she performed hard and dedicated enough during the period she watched.

In an inherent concept, compared with those actresses who are good at acting in art films, it seems that in vases in commercial films, they always easily get roles and can become famous without paying too much, but in many cases, this is not the case at all.

How long have Cameron Diaz and Drew Barrymore trained for the vase role of "The Angel of Thunderbolt"?

Orlando Bloom performed several months of bow and archery and fitness training for Legolas, and even pulled the tendons at one point.

There are also vases from the past, such as Meghan Fox, how much has it been spent on shooting Transformers? Only the person involved knows the feeling of running thousands of feet in a high and hatred.

In this circle, all those who can become famous are lucky people, but behind the luck there are efforts that others cannot see.

By the same token, even if there are two stunt stand-in, Scarlett Johnson wants to play Agent Natasha Normanoff well, and he will not give less than her acting in art films, or even more.

I chatted with this long-winded guy again. Robert Downey Jr. was called by the staff to prepare for the next shooting. Murphy followed the crew to the other side of the studio. When I passed, I walked away with Scarlett Johnson who was about to take off his makeup. Both sides nodded slightly.

Although I didn't know each other before, the Hollywood circle is so big. Who doesn't know if there will be any work intersection in the future?

However, Murphy’s biggest impression is that he can actually influence the trend of the Marvel Superhero movie in an alternative way.

The filming started over and stood far away from the periphery. Murphy watched and thought. Combined with some of the words he had just talked with Robert Downey Jr., it was not difficult for him to find that Jon Favreau, as a director, had very limited power.

After all, directors like Murphy are a minority. The initial shooting funds came entirely from him. He had the final say on how to shoot and do it alone. By the time he really directed a large company project, he already had considerable qualifications and would not be restricted everywhere like a new director.

The restrictions Jon Favreau was not obvious on the set, and only people like Murphy who are both directors empathized with it. For example, standing here and looking at it, the legal counsel of the crew would question Jon Favreau during the filming gap.

Robert never did this in Murphy's crew.

Of course, no one can deny the importance of a great legal counsel to the Hollywood crew.

Murphy mentioned before that large Hollywood companies have always been cautious. In order to eliminate all factors that hinder the realization and recycling of films' commercial value, the prudence of large companies is also reflected in the continued emphasis on the law.

No company wants to encounter any lawsuits caused by film projects due to personal rights or defamation. No matter how high the cost or the process is, it is necessary to conduct rounds of legal reviews on the film content to minimize the risk of litigation.

Take the script as an example. Every element, whether it is a character, event, scene or dialogue, will at least be clear: what is the element display or description? Is it a real character or fact? If it is real, is there any hidden dangers that may cause legal disputes?

Without saying this, it is not difficult for those who follow Hollywood to notice that there is something that often causes trouble for film companies, that is, phone numbers.

Regarding the question of whether the phone number in the video coincides with the real number, in the past, the production company would spend time experimenting and verifying, or simply open a new number, otherwise it would cause the actual owner to be furious and bear the impact and losses caused to it.

This is exactly why most of the phone numbers that appear in Hollywood movies today are 555. The numbers between 555-0100 and 555-0199 are specifically retained, which can be understood as special numbers for film and television.

There are also movies adapted from real people and real stories. The film company will adapt, modify, add or delete some or all of the content of the story and the information provided by the prototype of the film character. In order to avoid trouble, sufficient legal guarantees must be introduced in this regard.

Smart lawyers will remind studios to require the film's prototype to sign a "waiver" and declare that they will give up their possible future litigation rights. As a consideration, they can receive certain compensation or authorization fees, and some popular characters can even participate in the sharing of the film's net profit.

In addition, newspapers and magazines in reality are also something to pay attention to. Robert reminded Murphy that careful audiences are not difficult to find that all the newspapers that appeared in Murphy’s past were very strange, without dates and no specific events, and the content was the same. There was a bust of a smiling lady, a man wearing a hat, and this was a movie prop without copyright or other issues.

Seeing Robert Downey Jr. appear on the set, Murphy came back to his senses and focused on watching the filming of "Iron Man". Jon Favreau is a new director, but every director has something to offer and something that others deserve to learn from.

The studio converted from the Hughes Aircraft Factory's large-scale hangar was arranged into a cave. The three cameras were cleverly set on the reserved photography positions at angles that did not affect each other. The focus of the lens was the haggard man standing in front of the dilapidated workbench.

Murphy watched Robert Downey Jr.'s performance, a talented Hollywood actor in the early 1990s, and to some extent, he had a considerable similarity to Tony Stark, who is now starring.

Both are geniuses, both experienced the troughs of life, and eventually chose to save themselves.

On the set, Robert Downey Jr. picked up the hammer and hit the metal plate in front of him hard. He had a solemn expression and firm eyes. Not only was he a terrorist in the setting, it seemed that even Satan could not stop him from saving himself.

The hammer hit the metal sheet one by one, as if it had completely entered Tony Stark's world. Robert Downey Jr. waved his hands extremely powerfully, and the loud thrusts spread throughout every corner of the studio...

Murphy stayed until Robert Downey Jr.'s filming ended and left the studio at the Hughes Aircraft Factory with him.

Robert Downey Jr. handed his sports car to his assistant and got on Murphy's off-road vehicle. When the car drove out of Burbank, he suddenly said, "The person who framed me is basically not clear."

Murphy asked without turning his head, "Is there any evidence?"

"No." Robert Downey Jr. shook his head, "Didn't you say that this kind of thing requires no evidence."

"Well..." Murphy nodded slightly and asked again, "What are you going to do?"

"Of course it's going to take revenge!" Robert Downey Jr. said in a silence, "I want them to pay as quickly as possible! These two bastards! I want them to taste the taste of my abuse!"
