94 Chapter 94 Tentative Schedule (seeking subscription recommendation) (1/2)
Work is important, and a certain amount of rest should be guaranteed.
So after the finale banquet was over, Lehman also gave himself two days off.
After receiving the remaining compensation, most of the film crews broke away from the cooperative relationship. Except for Thomas, Ryan and a few actors who need post-dubbing, not many people need to participate in the post-production work.
In the past two days, after Lehman and Ryan returned to Cannes, they also stayed at home, occasionally coming out to have a meal together, relaxing the heavy pressure accumulated during the hectic filming work.
The days when I no longer want to think about things every day are still very leisurely, especially since I have just experienced more than three months of noisiness.
Sometimes, people really need to stop and give themselves some time to fix.
After a good two days of cleaning up, the two returned to Paris to meet Thomas and are preparing to start the post-editing work of ”Furious”.
Europa Pictures had a notice.
******
In the neatly decorated conference room, Luc Besson sat in the position of chief, looking at a financial statement on the conference table.
Naturally, what is recorded in the file is the cost list of ”Furious”. As the producer, it is easy to know the details.
Nicholas Cage paid 12 million, Joe Boenser 500,000, Eva Green 10,000...
Luc Besson scanned the salary expenditure of the cast and crew. In addition to the salary of the actors, there were also the salaries of the filming team such as Thomas...
There are also 7 million expenditures for the three positions of producer, director, and screenwriter.
Film expenses, board and lodging expenses, rental venue expenses... Luc Besson quickly saw the end. After the shooting stage, the total cost of expenditure totaled more than 48.7 million.
Well, the situation is better than expected, and there is still more.
Thinking like this, he closed the document in his hand and put it aside, and said to Lehman with a smile: ”I didn't expect the final shooting cost to be lower than the initial project evaluation budget.”
Lehman shrugged and complained: ”Of course, there is Jonathan Gavin staring at the side. I want to waste a little while shooting, and I have no chance to implement this idea. This guarantor has found the treasure. ”
Even after so many days, thinking of Jonathan's language torture during filming still left Lehman's heart lingering.
”Haha, he was not invited by us, but requested by Paramount Pictures. After all...you know, this project has their share.” Luc Besson smiled and dumped the pot. Going out means not to recite.
”I won't talk about it, what can you do if you come to me today? I have to do the post-production of ”Furious” as soon as possible.” Who knows the idea of Paramount Pictures, it is nothing more than to ensure the safety of the flow of filming funds .Presumably, at this time, they also got a detailed statement of shooting expenses.
”Well, we need to confirm when ”Furious” will be finished.”
Today, he called Lehman over for a small meeting, just to tentatively set the film's release schedule.
After all, the shooting work has been successfully completed, and the corresponding publicity work can be carried out simultaneously with the post-production.
In this way, when the theaters are actually released, the publicity work can be almost done.
It can not only leave enough time for the audience to know the exact release date of the film, but also expand the film's influence to attract interested audiences from all walks of life to contribute to the box office in time.
After thinking about it for a while, Lehman gave the answer, ”It should be completed before November, and it will be almost the same in mid-October soon.”
Lehman, who has cut two films, has a wealth of relevant experience. What's more, ”Furious” is actually not much different from ”Three Fools in Bollywood”. It is also based on the plot and does not involve a lot of post-production. Embedding of special effects.
Apart from editing the original film, the main work is just the recording of some regular soundtracks, sound and pictures and narration.
It doesn't take time to make it, only meticulous.
After getting Lehmann’s answer, Luc Besson nodded and said, “Then our schedule is fairly generous. We can not only catch up with the Thanksgiving holiday, but also try to step back and wait until Christmas.”
Lehman couldn't help but said, ”You can arrange it.”
