Chapter 1008： Love and family

In the past few days, Connie found that Ronan was in a very good mood and had a closer relationship with Jessica Felton, who had returned from Latin America. For example, as long as the two of them are in the Theory of Relativity Building, they must have lunch together at noon, and they will also have lunch together in the afternoon. Leave in a car.

Connie quickly determined that Ronan and Jessica Felton had come together.

And Ronan is serious.

Ronan didn't answer even the calls of Anne Hathaway and Scarlett Johansson, and all asked her assistant to make excuses to turn them off.

Connie is a smart person, no matter what choice the boss makes, she is wise to keep silent.

Ronan is very attentive to Jessica Felton, but his work life cannot revolve around women.

In early March, Princess Animation Studio completed the first animated film to join Relativity Entertainment, named "The Snow Queen".

This animated short film only lasts less than 20 minutes. It took more than eight months to prepare for the production of the interview in Northern Europe in July last year. In the middle, because of the new princess’s character and actions, several changes were made, which met Ronan’s requirements.

Animated short films with singing and dancing also retain many fine traditions of Disney animation.

The eight-month production process of "The Snow Queen" also allowed the team headed by Chris Buck to truly understand the concept of the new princess movie.

Real knowledge comes out of practice. Saying it a hundred times is not as good as doing it once.

In the small meeting room of Princess Animation Studio, Ronan convened a meeting of several core leaders. The content of the meeting was mainly the first animation feature film of the animation studio.

"Trained and mentored by Pixar Studios." Chris Buck is no longer what he was when he left Disney, and he became more confident: "Especially the production of the "Ice Queen" animated short film, we have benefited a lot. Preparations for the first animated feature film guided by the new concept can begin."

Byrne Howard also said: "I think it's time."

Others, including Rich Moore, have their eyes on Ronan.

Ronan was relatively cautious, but he also felt that the Princess Studios could begin preparations, thinking that these people were almost swept out by Disney, and said: "There is a situation, I will let you know, I have the exact news, and Disney Animation Studios is also right. I am very interested in adapting "The Snow Queen"."

Those present here were all abandoned by Disney, and some of them swept out when Disney abolished the hand-drawn animations. Hearing that Disney was also targeting this project, their attitudes changed.

This source is quite reliable, Ronan heard it from David Ellison.

Chris Buck was not surprised. At this time, he said: "Disney does have plans for this." He said simply: "In fact, as early as the 1930s, Walt Disney considered adapting "The Snow Queen." However, "The Snow Queen" is not a traditional fairy tale that follows the rules. It is a little weird in terms of plot. The adaptation is quite difficult. Mr. Disney had to give up. During the Disney revival in 1990, the adaptation plan was put on the agenda again, but several times All attempts ended in failure. At the end of the 1990s, Disney simply cancelled this plan that was only on paper."

These things, Chris Barker also said to Ronan before, in fact, Disney Animation Studios had too many literary works intended to be adapted, such as "The Snow Queen", which was included in the plan and cancelled, not to mention there are Hundreds and dozens.

Everyone here knows enough about Disney, and it is not surprising.

Chris Buck added: "As far as I know, Disney Animation Studios has a plan to restart "The Snow Queen", which can be determined as soon as the next year, and it is very likely that Megan Morari will be responsible."

Rich Moore answered: "We are already ahead."

Ronan raised his hand to stop others from speaking and said: "No matter what Walt Disney and Disney Animation Studios do, we are doing ourselves well. This project must advance steadily."

He looked at Chris Buck: "The script was given to you last year. Let me talk about my views and plans."

Everyone, including Chris Buck, knows very well that this seemingly simple question is actually an assessment. If it fails, Princess Animation Studio’s first animated feature film project must be suppressed.

Chris Barker and others discussed several times, and according to the theme and concept of the animated short film, a project plan has been formulated.

“Last year’s trip to Northern Europe gave us a lot of gains.” Byrne Howard said first: “Members of our production team went to Quebec to visit well-known ice and snow hotels in Quebec to explore how light creates a different kind on ice and snow. Beautiful scenery, so as to design the ice queen’s castle."

He thought for a while, and then said: "We want to build a world that makes people feel welcoming. It has a charming and lively background, not limited by time, and can be easily recognized even after a few generations. Norway provides a We have never explored the cultural background, so we thought, "It must be great to combine its dramatic environment, architecture and dress aesthetics?" It is like a world out of a classic movie, but it is a brand new one. world."

Ronan nodded slowly and reminded: "Don't forget, this is a Hollywood movie."

Hollywood has never recognized that nation is the world’s perspective. Chris Barker has a clear understanding of this, saying: “The Nordic background is only the basis of our creation. We don’t have to construct a real world, we just have to Build a believable world', so our story background is not a complete copy of Norway-we just want to twist and modify it a little bit to turn it into our own environment-it will make the audience feel familiar and at the same time Our character is in the most reasonable background."

Ronan said: "The project's production budget is as high as 150 million US dollars, which determines that the film must be popular and international."

Subsequently, the two sides further began to discuss the role of the script.

It is somewhat different from the previous movies. In that "Frozen", strictly speaking, the heroine is Anna, and the most popular Aisha is the supporting actress.

In the second part, because Aisha was so popular, she became an absolute heroine, and Anna obviously stepped aside.

According to Ronan’s requirements, the screenwriting department of Shahai Entertainment completed the script. Anna and Aisha are typical dual heroines, and Aisha will be more prominent for commercial benefits.

Ronan directly requested that when making two sets of dresses for Anna and Aishaduo, they must be beautiful enough to capture the hearts of the girls.

In the past two "Frozen", in order to sell clothes, Disney is absolutely frantic in Aisha's clothes design!

Especially the second part is simply Aisha's dressup show.

Facts have also proved that Disney has received extremely generous returns.

A movie, just selling the clothes of a certain character, has billions of dollars in income, which can be called a super weird movie.

Where Aisha is the Snow Queen, she is clearly a clothes seller.

In terms of music, Ronan has repeatedly emphasized that this is another key to the success of "Frozen".

"There is only one theme in this film, love and family!" Chris Barker focused on Aisha: "The Ice Queen is just a symbolic character in the original story, but in this film she needs to help herself Make a sound, so that the audience today can feel the same."

The people at Princess Animation Studio no longer speak, but Chris Barker said: "She represents a lot of girls who grew up with us. We can regard her as a heroine nowadays-strong and brave, but There are also shortcomings. She is by no means perfect, but we love her like this. She has grown up all the way to become the person she wants to be: full of energy, but also has her own unique sense of humor."

"As for the plot of the movie." Chris Buckle pondered, and said: "It's fun and interesting, and it touches the heart, and it can have many unexpected turns."

Ronan nodded in approval, and said: "I hope this movie is both time-sensitive and timeless."

Knowing that Ronan has high hopes for Princess Animation Studio, Chris Buck said: "Ronan, we will not disappoint you and Relativity Entertainment."

Ronan smiled and said, "I believe this." He quickly made a decision: "This project, I named "Frozen", and it was officially established in Princess Animation Studio today.

Including Chris Barker, the executives of Princess Animation Studio were all relieved.

Since joining Relativity Entertainment, they have all felt the pressure of competition. The original Shahai Entertainment Animation Studio has continued to achieve success, while the Pixar Studio that joined at the same time still maintains its brilliance. Only Princess Animation Studio is silent. It needs to be proved by performance. One's own presence and importance.

This is a commercial group company, and it is useless to say anything if it can't produce outstanding performance.

Princess Animation Studio can only prove itself with animated feature films.

The meeting lasted for half of the afternoon and basically resolved a series of issues related to the establishment of "Frozen". According to the relevant plan, "Frozen" has a production budget of up to 150 million US dollars and is expected to be released in the winter of 2009.

Afterwards, Ronan went to the screenwriting department of Shahai Entertainment and asked the screenwriting department to complete two new animation project scripts to register the copyright as soon as possible.

Of these two scripts, one of them is a typical princess type, but the background of the story is placed in the ocean and islands.

The other is about animal utopias.

As for the "Six Heroes" that I was going to hand over to Princess Animation Studio, it was originally a work of Marvel comics, and the copyright is completely in the hands of Marvel Entertainment, so there is no need to worry.

Before the preparatory work of "Frozen" is on track, Princess Animation Studio will not start the second animated feature film project for the time being.

"Six Heroes" will not be on the agenda until next year at the earliest.

Animated films and drama series will be the focus of Relativity Entertainment's revenue in the future. The income that the surroundings can bring is incomparable to most live-action movies. Relativity Entertainment also has many animated feature films released this year.
