The making of 'La La Land': Why it's

important to modern cinema
"La La Land" netted a record 14 Oscar nominations.

By MALORIE CUNNINGHAM

21 February 2017e this

-- Creating nostalgia for nostalgia's sake has resulted in success for films
in recent years, but this year's hit "La La Land," with 14 Oscar
nominations, took a different, more complex approach, choosing to
honor the past while placing it in a contemporary environment.
The original musical centers on jazz pianist Sebastian (Ryan Gosling),
who falls for aspiring actress Mia (Emma Stone) while they try to make
their dreams come true in Los Angeles. Both Stone and Gosling, who
earned Golden Globes last month for their performances, received nods
from the academy for best actor and best actress.

While a majority of critics and moviegoers fell in love with "La La Land,"
its accolades may feel too generous to some. Regardless, it is evident this
reimagining of old Hollywood gives life to the thought-extinct cinematic
experience.

Here's what it took to make a classical movie on a modern landscape:

Writing the script, 2010

Director Damien Chazelle wrote the script for "La La Land" in 2010. His
college roommate, Justin Hurwitz, began composing the music at the
same time.

Chazelle told Vulture that the only differences between the original script
and what's onscreen is the budget and age of the two leads. Originally,
Chazelle and Hurwitz pitched it with a budget of $1 million. The film cost
$30 million to make.

They used Chazelle's similarly themed 2009 movie, "Guy and Madeline
on a Park Bench," to pitch the idea, they told Vulture.

It took six years for anyone to say yes.

Getting it financed, February 2015

With "La La Land" stalling, Chazelle turned his attention to a new

project, "Whiplash."

Initially, he couldn't get that film financed either, so he decided to make

part of it into a short.

The short got into Sundance and won the jury award, which attracted
enough attention to get the feature version of "Whiplash" financed. The
independent film, budgeted at just over $3 million, follows a talented
drummer (Miles Teller) who enrolls at an elite conservatory with an
abusive instructor (J.K. Simmons).

The movie was released to great acclaim, and it won three Oscars in 2015,
including best supporting actor for Simmons. Its success gave Chazelle
his pick of projects — and he chose "La La Land."

Preproduction, May 2015 to August 2015

For about three months, Chazelle and his stars used a group of
warehouses to prepare in Los Angeles' Atwater Village.
Gosling practiced piano in one area, while Stone worked with dance
choreographer Mandy Moore (not the singer) in another.

Gosling said he spent two hours a day, six days a week, learning to play
the songs in the film. When filming started, Hurwitz said, Gosling could
play every sequence without using a hand double or CGI (Computer-
generated imagery).

"The piano was something that I always wished I had time to learn. In
what other job is it a part of your job to just sit in front of a piano for
three months and play?" Gosling said in a Lionsgate featurette on the
making of the film. "It was really one of the most fulfilling preproduction
periods I've ever had."

Hurwitz had the challenge of reorchestrating the music, using the film's
classic theme and Gosling and Stone's modern voices. In total, Hurwitz
reworked the music for about a year before anything was shot.

Filming, August 2015 to October 2015

"La La Land"'s complex opening scene — a massive musical number in

the midst of a most unglamorous, realistic traffic jam — was shot in 48
hours.
The cast and crew shut down a ramp that connects the 100 and 105
freeways. On both days, temperatures soared above 100 degrees.

Moore started the dance rehearsals for the scene in May 2015 at the
parking lot behind the production office. The sequence was mapped by
using Post-it notes on miniature model cars.

When the big day of filming came, the cast did a six-hour rehearsal on the
ramp before shooting.

The rest of shooting took place at more than 60 other LA locations, with
most scenes being shot as one long take.

Shooting fantastical music numbers taking place in the real world meant
singing the music live each take, but Chazelle put more emphasis on
emotion than technique.

Editing, 2016

Chazelle spent nearly a year editing the film with Tom Cross, who won an
Oscar for his work on "Whiplash." Cross said he found this project much
more challenging because of the music factor.
 "Edit is the film's therapist. As well planned as it was, when you get into
the editing room, there are a lot of things that change." Cross said.

Emma Stone films "La La Land."

In a movie that is equal parts heartbreak and joy, Cross had to find a way
to make the music best emphasize the film's emotion, which meant
experimenting.

Hurwitz played a big part in the editing process. They decided not to use
temp music, which most films employ early on.

"Temp music is music from older movies or classical music that they later
replace with the original score. It didn't feel like we could do that on this
movie," Hurwitz said. "All day, every day as [Cross] was cutting scenes, I
was giving them score cues. Then they were adjusting the scenes to fit the
score. So the picture and the score were evolving together, which is
unusual."

Premiere, August 2016

The movie premiered at the Venice Film Festival on Aug. 31, 2016.
On Jan. 9, "La La Land" set a record for the most Golden Globe wins,
taking home seven prizes.

during the 74th Annual Golden Globe Awards at The Beverly Hilton Hotel, Jan. 8, 2017 in Beverly Hills, California.

"La La Land" tied the record for most Oscar nominations, with 14
nominations. Only two other movies have received that many nods:
"Titanic" and "All About Eve."
