After Lily and Ye Wei's wonderful speeches, it is not surprising that the special guest Jake Gyllenhaal has become a supporting role.
Although everyone applauded his speech when it was time to applaud and laughed when it was time to laugh, they did not get excited. It's no wonder that Jack's speech had a similar theme. He shared his experience and mood from a student to a professional actor, and encouraged the younger generations to chase their dreams, but it was a little dull and overshadowed by the others.
But this situation is really not what Ms. Yale and the others had imagined before. You must know that the promotional poster for the film festival mainly features Jack¡¯s 7th grade ID photo.
When the atmosphere in the theater became lively again, it was because of the screening of "Winter Girls".
Lev's directorial level is only at the average high school level. In the words of Master Gia, he has "one-tenth of my skills." However, the story is real and interesting, and most importantly, several young and invincible beauties. The girl is so eye-catching!
Connie has always been a high-quality little beauty, and Trieste is also eye-catching when she takes off her glasses and braces; Lily becomes the scene-stealer who covers up the heroine, showing off her elegance and heroic spirit in just a few shots. The British princess style amazed all the male students in the room.
Someone also recognized her. She just saw her at the Oscars this year, no wonder she looks so familiar!
Of course, Connie also left a deep impression on the audience. The quick shots of her constantly changing various outfits in the mirror were great. She looked good, her clothes looked good, and the images looked good.
But this kind of mirror lens belongs to the high-level ranks. It takes a lot of effort to find a good angle to shoot. Besides, the use of this kind of lens does not look like Lev¡¯s handiwork After Gia¡¯s text message and questioning, Lev admitted on the spot. , this set of shots was suggested by Brother Wei.
Jia sighed, suggestion? Because of this set of shots, the quality of "Winter Girl" has been raised to a new level. Lev, a rough guy, really doesn't understand anything!
Starting from the end credits, listening to the applause of the audience, which of the participating girls is not happy? Beautiful memories of youth!
Connie¡¯s eyes were filled with stars. VIY was great. She just said it casually at the time, but he was so interested in it, and that¡¯s why he is so happy now. Such a boy is awesome! Lily, that fool who knows no blessings despite being blessed, actually refused his confession. What a fool
Between the screenings of each film, major awards were also presented. "Birthday Balloon" won the Best Cinematography Award (Natalie Shapiro, Harvard-Westlake), and "Lies" won the Best Cinematography Award. Editing Award (Sam Buchister, Harvard-Westlake), "Friendly Advice" won the Best Screenplay Award (Taylor Zeller, Windward School), "Unlocking Nightmares" won the Most Creative Award, (Ander Lieutenant Capelli, Mira Costa High School).
They are all one or two years older than Ye Wei, but when they go on stage to receive the award, they all thank him for the strength they got from him!
The most important of the seven awards, the Best Director Award and the Best Film Award, were awarded to Ye Wei for "Good Men Are Well Rewarded". They were well-deserved. He went on stage to receive the award twice, both of which ignited the audience. passion. But the most exciting thing was after the screening of the closing film "Dance of Angels", everyone once again stood up to pay tribute to this incredible and talented short film!
The judges selected this list of winners in the spirit of fairness and professionalism, and the enthusiasm of the audience determined the voting results for the most popular award. Before the party ended, the school completed on-site voting and statistics, with almost no results. Unsuspicious result:
First place, "Dance of Angels"; second place, "Good Things Come to Good Men"; third place, "Winter Girls"; fourth place, "We Will Be Friends" (Chris Groban, Harvard- West Lake); fifth place, "Friendly Suggestions"
I am a good person, but why! It can be said that Ye Wei still swept the first Harvard-Westlake Film Festival. Interestingly, the young producers all laughed and applauded.
Kevin Costner and other four professional producers also had a new understanding of Ye Wei and couldn't help but praise him. As expected, as rumored, this genius boy is not only talented, but also very lovable. He is only 16 years old. , who can predict his future? All I can say is, there is definitely a future!
Hanks is Hanks, and you won¡¯t suffer a loss if you invest in such a young man. Whether it's the remake of "Wedding Day is Coming" or the mysterious new film project, they are all very interested. What achievements can Ye Wei make?
The evening party came to an end, and the applause from the audience did not dissipate for a long time.
When the party ended, the students laughed and talked about the party just now, talking about VIY, and talked a lot, which made the young people who had been waiting outside all night and failed to get in envious.
"VIY's speech was great. Is that Lily his girlfriend? It was also very well said."
"I am willing to come to Harvard-Westlake for him. When I go back, I will tell my parents that this place is too"?. "
"Don't be impulsive! The study style here is also very strict. Do you want to study all night?"
"I don't care, I feel VIY is my true love, I want to get to know him!"
It¡¯s not just young girls who want to get to know VIY. Almost all young producers want to get to know him and have given him their business cards. They want to talk about movies with him and have a cool friend like him. Moreover, VIY is already a moderate figure, and he will definitely become more powerful in the future. If you are interested in developing into the film industry, you should definitely get to know him.
They are all people of the same age who have dreams of making movies! Who might you have the opportunity to collaborate with in the future? Ye Wei has made many good friends and made friends with everyone. It was as if the universe exploded in his cell phone address book.
He had a chat with Cele, Groban, Cappelli and others. They are all very talented and their level is really high. As long as they develop well, they will be qualified filmmakers.
They are seniors and are thinking about choosing a university. Of course they want to go to film school! USC, UCLA, NYU and Ye Wei had only one suggestion, USC.
"Guys, I hope that one day we will become college alumni and become movie kids who revolutionize the film industry!"
"Yes, like Lucas and Spielberg!"
"Hahaha!"
After leaving the rugby theater, Ye Wei did not go home with his family, but went to a nearby Starbucks with a group of friends to celebrate.
Naturally, everyone had a great time and took a lot of photos, including a group photo, Ye Wei holding three trophies, kissing the trophies, being kissed on one cheek by Connie and Trieste, being hit by Lily holding the trophies, and several Girls kiss the trophy together, boys compete for the trophy
Serious, funny, joking, unexpected, take photos one by one, leaving behind every bit of youth.
Click! In another picture, Ye Wei is sitting on a chair with his arms around Lily's shoulders. She is holding the Ye Wei Award trophy, and the two of them are smiling brightly.
