Summary of The Wimpy Kid Movie Diary
The pages are p. 1-202 it starts on A Wimp Is Born and ends on Credits. The story starts out is their how to make a movie. I like this good book and it writing by Jeff Kinney. If you want to check out this book go to the library and pick it up.
Greg Heffley was created in January 1998 in a small apartment in Massachusetts. One month later, Zachary Gordon was born on the other side of the country, in California. But eleven years later, the two would come together when Zach was chosen to play the part of Greg in the live-action "Diary of a Wimpy Kid" movie. This book is the story of how a little idea got turned into a major motion picture, and how a fictional cartoon character became a real boy. They had giant 1,300-page book that was first published online. More than 90% of the material written in the sketch pad didn't make the final cut. A year later, an editor in New York decided to publish "Diary of a Wimp Kid." And that's how Greg Heffley made the leap from a sketch pad to a printed book.
A few months later, Zach Gordon, now working as an actor in television and film, read the book and told his mom he hoped someone would make it into a movie. And if they did, he told her, he wanted to play the part of Greg Heffley. The Hollywood was thinking turn the book to a movie. How to looking for a direction of the movie? So, they picked Thor Freudenthal was born in Germany. He find a part of Rowley Jefferson was found in Rhode Island, and his name was Robert Capron. Robert had done some stage and film acting as well. Greg's Dad was Steve Zahn, Rodrick was Devon Bostick, and Mom was Rachael Harris.
They film in Vancouver, Canada. Here are some more actors Patty Farrell (Laine Macneil), Darren Walsh (Harrison Houde), Fregley (Grayson Russell), and Chirag (Karan Brar). They couldn't find anyone to do Manny part so, they find Connor and Owen Fielding. The girl was Angie (Chloe Moretz). So, they took three schools in to one school is Shaughnessy Elementary School, Van Tech Secondary School, and Templeton Secondary School as Westmore Middle School. They get a trailer are like rooms on wheels. They have blue backdrop is a "blue screen." They made Rodrick's band van called Loded Diper.
Long story short they made a DVD on any shot they made. The credits said "FOX 2000 Picture Presents. A COLOR FORCE Production. "DIARY OF A WIMPY KID." Greg Heffley ZACHARY GORDON.
