Producer is a very sacred, responsible title, because the word "Producer" means maker. Therefore, the producer should be a combination of entrepreneurs and artists, and also the mainstay of ensuring the accumulation of the film industry and art.
After the compilation of the editor, the following Hollywood's top 10 gold medal producers are not only makers, but also old drivers, big fools, scrooges, and even talking, litigation sticks and money fans - in fact, these are just the basic abilities of producers.
The producer must be "full of hangers" (Chongqing dialect, describing a person can do anything) in order to find a good story, subdue the cow director, and control the entire creative chain, production chain and sales chain.
So, let's start with Jerry Bruckheimer, the second place on the gold medal producer list, as a typical representative.
In September 2013, the American Academy of Motion Picture Science and Technology Awards "American Film Art Achievement Award" was awarded to Brookheimer, making him the first "pure producer" to win the American Film Art Achievement Award in 27 years.
At present, Bruckheimer's films have grossed more than $16 billion worldwide. His works include the Pirates of the Caribbean series, the National Treasures series, Pearl Harbor, Enemies of the Nation, prisons in the air, and more. In addition, he has created more than ten series of online dramas, including the long-term "Crime Scene Investigation" series.
As a producer, the depth of his involvement in the film may make Chinese producers ashamed. He once said in an interview with the media: "I will participate in the overall planning, the selection of actors, reading the script, writing instructions, watching fragments, making music, reading the daily journal." ”
What he has been doing without saying it includes: supervising every shot and controlling every creative link; sparing no effort in the distribution, promotion and marketing of the film; and using his own knowledge and experience to make accurate judgments and decisions about the market.
Brookheimer is respected by people in the industry and says "Jerry has the world".
For example, he supervised the production of "Jedi X-Men", "Daredevil Island", "The End of the World", "Pearl Harbor" and "Pearl Harbor" for Michael Bay, only in 2005 Michael Bay abandoned Jerry and made a deal with DreamWorks for "Escape from Clone Island", only to lose money.
For example, before 2003, no one dared to touch dirty pirate movies for a long time, but Jerry spent a lot of money to revive the cold theme, and the "Pirates of the Caribbean" series prompted Johnny Depp, the captain of the half-red and purple gun, to become popular for a decade.
