Chapter 47: "The Graduate" starts

Burbank, Los Angeles.

In early April, United Film Company announced two news to North America. The script of "Planet of the Apes" began to officially launch projects in Hollywood through the green light given by Herac. Stanley Kremer, who had just completed the post-production of "Guess Who Comes to Have Dinner", was the chief producer, while Herac put a co-producer to supervise the progress of the filming.

When the general producer finalized Stanley Kremer, the director also confirmed that Franklin Sfanner directed "Planet of the Apes".

This original time and space is Franklin Sfan, who directed "Planet of the Apes", was recommended by Francis Ford Coppola and had many ideas about the original work, so he was selected to direct "Planet of the Apes".

Herac originally planned to change the director to direct "Planet of the Apes", but he didn't expect that before choosing a director, Francis Ford Coppola would call to recommend the candidates to him.

From Francis Ford Coppolana, Franklin Sfanna is one of the directors of his teacher's company.

The film production company Francis Ford Coppola is now in has the potential to produce small production costs.

The other party actually recommended someone over here, and he was the director of the original time and space version. Herac didn't mind selling him face, and maybe he could use this as an opportunity to cooperate with the other party.

In order to know what North American audiences think of "Planet of the Apes" at any time, Trisemel responded through email and learned that the news made some fans of the original novel very much look forward to it, while a small number of them were questioning.

When Planet of the Apes began to design ape clothes, Graduate, with the joining of photographer Robert Satis, the news of the start-up was announced to Hollywood through the reports of entertainment news reporters.

Regarding how fans of the original novel of "Graduate" and some North American audiences would think, Herac did not pay attention to the email feedback. He knew very well that even the movie had not been filmed, he would only receive doubts, and even an ugly sound.

The shooting scene of "Graduate" was chosen by Herac to shoot at Universal Studios United States production site. It is fully equipped, spacious and has many houses for filming, which is very suitable for shooting locations for such modern films.

In order to truly restore the authenticity of the novel "Graduate", according to Herak's requirements, Brookheimer made the scenes arranged by the design team and prop team more refined, so as to avoid obvious misleading scenes in the material during shooting.

After more than two months of training by Albert R. Brookheimer has begun to integrate into the work of producers. Perhaps he is still a newcomer. He cannot compare with the old producers, but he has done the work of "Graduate" accurately.

With the help of Brookheimer and Ridley Scott, Herak's affairs have been relieved a lot.

In order to restore some serious and visual scenes in the novel "Graduate" have fully demonstrated the impact of people, a new type of camera has been brought.

In front of the monitor, Herac fiddled with the Czechoslovak camera admira           8f, the upgraded camera admira                                                                                                   

With these, we can ensure that the graduation year of "Graduate" can be restored and the quality of the film can be improved.

The camera was placed in place, and Dustin Hoffman and Anne Bancroft, who had already finished makeup, came to the filming location prepared by the crew, led by their assistants.

After being dressed by a makeup artist, Anne Bancroft expressed the temperament of a young woman very well, while Dustin Hoffman's dress was very similar to a college graduate.

"Ms. Anne Bancroft, thank you for joining the film I made."

While the filming had not been filmed, Herac greeted Anne Bancroft, who was watching the script.

The other party was able to accept the role of him, a rookie who had never even directed a movie, which surprised Herak. When he invited Anne Bancroft to join "The Graduate", he was ready to find a new actor.

“I really like the script and director storyboard you wrote.”

Anne Bancroft looked at Herac who greeted him in front of him, thinking of his identity as chairman of United States and the wonderful script written by Herac in his hand, it was difficult for her to compare the young people in front of her with the script "Graduate" that made her think was very good, so that she could decide to join "Graduate". In addition to the pay, it was also the existence of a director's storyboard that made her decide to join.

The skillful style and exquisite layout of the director's storyboard of "Graduate" made Anne Bancroft and her agent understand that Herac is not the kind of person who knows how to shoot.

"Thank you for your love."

Herak also knew the meaning of Anne Bancroft being able to join. After chatting with the other party, he explained his position and role to new actors such as Dustin Hoffman.

"Start the shoot."

As the crew and others were ready, Herac ended the explanation after they learned about their mission.

In order to get Dustin Hoffman and Anne Bancroft into the game, the first scene was performed with physical contact. Although this might waste a lot of film, in order to successfully complete the shooting in the future, Herac didn't mind starting to waste a little film.

In front of the monitor, Anne Bancroft and Dustin Hoffman each integrated into their roles. What happened when the two met at the cocktail party for the first time was just right.

"Card!"

Watching Dustin Hoffman and Anne Bancroft's skin contact, his somewhat stiff movements had to shout at the set.

Both of them who were performing couldn't help but look at Herac, looking confused as to why it was a card.

"Mr. Hoffman, although the scenes of your eyes were expressed when you were in contact with Ms. Anne Bancroft's skin, your movements and face were a little stiff, which made your acting skills suppressed by Ms. Anne Bancroft. What I need is that the acting skills of the male lead will not be crushed by the female lead."

Herac looked at the two of them and told them what their problem was.

"Sorry, I'll adjust him back."

Listening to Herak telling him in detail about his shortcomings, Dustin Hoffman said a little apologetically, and he promised;

Seeing that Dustin Hoffman suddenly understood his shortcomings in some aspects, Herac asked him to adjust his facial emotions.

"Okay, start."

Seeing Dustin Hoffman adjusting his own problems, Herac was a little surprised that the other party was serious about the performance, so he continued the first scene that he had not done well.

In front of the monitor, Das Hoffman, who was prepared, was playing against Ms. Anne Bancroft, and did not show that his face and eye scenes were out of sync.

This performance surprised Herak slightly.
