Hollywood What If Chapter 15
Kazir Grey had worked with three filming crews when he made three movies. Most of his crew sisted of people who were semi-professional in the industry.
They knew how to shoot. However, they were not qualified to join a real film crew because of their weak resumes. After all, Hollywood followed strong humaionships.
It was difficult to join a crew with simple requests uhey were willing to pay less or nothing at all.
In a way, Kazir Grey was like them. He also started as a helper. In fact, Kazir art of the camera crew before he started his own movie.
"Hey Kazir, are you sure you want to do this?"
"Renner. We both know this is our ce. We 't let ourselves rot doing nothing. That's right, I want to make a edy instead of a horror movie."
Renner Hector. He was a cameraman who knew a lot about cameras and filming. He hoped to bee a real ematographer in a real produ crew.
As a person who loves to shoot movies, he uands that his best occupation is to bee a director of photography/ematographer.
"But seriously, you lost some weight. You look like a jaow with those muscles of yours!"
Kazir just chuckled.
Renner and Kazir met on a film crew seven years ago. Renner had just graduated from college, while Kazir had just left home. They both pursued their dreams but found that it was not so easy.
They entered many obstacles. The three movies they created were quickly sent to the videotape market instead of being released theatrically.
In fact, they both dreamed of seeing their film iers.
"Trust me, Rehis time will be different."
"Well, our st three movies are B-grade horror films and none of them are successful."
They sold the chts of the three movies for a few million. To be ho, it was a great achievement to sell them at that pribsp;
"I have a question first."
"Go ahead."
"Where did you get the iment? We are talking about half a million. You know the st movie we made only cost 100 thousand." Renner narrowed his eyes and gred at Kazir.
"Well... I asked my older brother to i in my movie." Kazir rubbed his nose.
"Really? But I thought you had a falling out?"
"No, my brother and I are on good terms. You mean my father. My father doesn't wao go to Hollywood."
"Is that so? Then what's your pn? I'm in. I'm bored in the shop. All I see are endless film rolls."
Renner Hector's uncle owned a camera rental business. Maybe that was one of the reasons Renner fell in love with shooting movies.
But Renner uood himself. He didn't want to direct a movie, he just wao capture ses on camera. So he didn't have a problem with Kazir being the director. They have known each other for seven years and trust each other.
"What about the others, Jane and Harold?" Kazir asked. The two people he said were important members of his crew.
"They agreed. They both work in a restaurant as waiters just to get through the day. They are just waiting for you to start."
"That's good then." He grinned.
He had 15 members in his st crew and he wao hire them all as much as possible. The answer was very simple, he had experience w with them and the crew respected him.
Authority was important to a director. If the crew didn't respect the director and didn't follow his orders, then the director's creative ideas would never be used in the movie. His position would be nothing but a or a puppet.
Of course, resped authority had to be earned. Kazir wao prove himself to the world.
"tact them first, I have something to do. I will go to Idaho."
"That's far, will we shoot there?"
"Yes, I have a p mind." He nodded.
The filming of Napoleon Dynamite was do Preston High School and various areas in Franklin ty, Idaho. It has been said that some of the plots of Napoleon Dynamite were "loosely" based on director Jared Hess when he was in high school. But the time was different, it was still 1997, not 2004. Jared Hess was still a 15 years old guy.
As for "stealing" the idea, Mark Zuckerberg stole the idea for Facebook from his cssmates. After a lengthy legal battle that sted years, Facebook ended up paying Zuckerberg's ex-cssmates 65 millioweehree students involved.
Facebook was now worth 500 billion. As expected from our robot lizard Mark.
Do you think stealing is bad? It is. But these billionaires probably didn't care about the feelings of the majority. Everything is nothing before money.
Perhaps they are fug beautiful underage women right now just like Jeffrey Epstein. Living the life leisurely.
Kazir Grey was fident that nothing bad would happen. He registered the script in the Writer's Guild st year, along with some inal scripts he wao film.
"Do you wao go with you?"
"No, it's okay. I'm just doing some research. I will e ba a few days and officially start the project."
Kazir wao tact Preston High School and ask them to allow the filming in their school.
'I am sure there will be no problem. I'm not going to film horror or anything that would tarnish their reputation. Napoleon Dynamite is a edy. Besides, it will be free publicity for them.'
Kazir tacted the school about making a movie on their campus. At first the school thought it rank call, but Kazir expined his iions well.
As he expected, the principal wao meet with him.
While Renner and the others began preparations, Kazir flew to Idaho to find the principal of Preston High School. It was not much, Kazir proved his identity to them. He even gave them 2/3 of the script to show them the movie he wao make.
The school agreed to let him shoot the movie on their campus on the premise that they would not cause a problem for the students.
"Don't worry principal, we will shoot the movie in July. It's summer vacation."
"Then that will be fine."
They shook hands. The school didn't ask for a payment, but they asked Kazir to promote their school instead.
"This pce is nice."
He used his fio make a camera gesture. He pictured the ses in his mind as he looked at the school's entrance hall.
