Dari filem ke novel, Damya Hanna teruja
NOOR AINULYAKIN MOHAMAD ISHAK
5 MEI 2015
A- A+ (Ubah saiz teks)
SEJAK kebelakangan ini, menjadi suatu trend apabila penerbit dan pengarah cenderung untuk menerbitkan filem daripada adaptasi novel terkenal.
Namun berbeza kali ini, filem Langit Cinta yang bakal menemui penonton akhir tahun ini telah diadaptasi ke naskhah novel. Lebih menarik, filem yang diarahkan oleh Osman Ali ini bakal digarap oleh novelis terkenal, Damya Hanna.
Melahirkan rasa teruja apabila diberi kepercayaan pengarah tersohor, Damya berkata, adaptasi skrip filem ke novel adalah pengalaman baru bagi dirinya, namun ia bukan penghalang untuk menggarapnya ke bentuk novel kerana jalan cerita sudah tersedia.
Novelis berusia 33 tahun ini juga mengakui satu cabaran baru bagi dirinya untuk memanjangkan penceritaan daripada 90 muka surat kepada lebih kurang 500 muka surat novel.
“Sebelum ini jika saya menulis, saya bebas tulis apa sahaja idea sendiri, tetapi kali ini berbeza apabila idea dari Osman, saya hanya garap ke bentuk novel.
“Dari segi babak, saya ambil semua berdasarkan skrip, cuma saya ubah sedikit dialog untuk disesuaikan kerana dalam novel perlu ada kesinambungan. Misalnya satu minit babak wayang saya jadikan satu bab.
“Ketika penggambaran di Pulau Tuba, Langkawi juga saya turut ke sana bagi melihat sendiri suasana dan babak utama yang dijalankan di sana agar memudahkan proses penulisan novel,” katanya ketika ditemui pada majlis pelancaran Adaptasi Filem ke Novel Langit Cinta, baru-baru ini.
Berkongsi mengenai watak dalam Langit Cinta pula, kata Damya, ia sememang sedikit mencabar apabila dia perlu mencipta watak dari idea orang lain, namun segalanya diatasi dengan baik.
“Saya akui agak sukar, namun saya tidak jadikan kesukaran itu sebagai satu alasan. Insya ALLAH, mungkin dalam waktu dua tiga bulan, novel ini akan diterbitkan iaitu sebelum filem ini ditayangkan. Tinggal 40 peratus lagi untuk disiapkan,” katanya.
Osman percaya kemampuan Damya
Sementara itu, Osman berkata, beliau sangat menyukai cara penulisan Damya Hanna dan pernah bekerjasama dengan penulis itu sebelum ini dan menyebabkan dia memilih novelis muda itu untuk menghasilkan novel Langit Cinta.
“Saya pernah baca novelnya seperti Bicara Hati dan Sepi Tanpa Cinta. Jalan cerita dan garapan yang menarik telah menarik minat saya untuk memilihnya sebagai penulis novel filem ini.
“Memang ini satu percubaan baru, sebelum ini adaptasi novel ke filem, namun kali ini saya mahu membuat kelainan dan berharap formula baru ini dapat diterima penonton dan peminat novel,” katanya.
Berkongsi mengenai penggambaran filem tersebut pula, Osman berkata, naskhah filem kali ini mempunyai beberapa cabaran, antaranya terhenti sembilan hari disebabkan faktor cuaca dan memanjangkan lagi tempoh penggambaran.
“Kami mula penggambaran ketika September tahun lalu, ketika itu cuaca di Pulau Tuba, Langkawi mengalami hujan dan ribut. Jabatan Laut juga memberi amaran kepada kami untuk tidak melakukan aktiviti berhampiran pantai ketika itu, justeru terpaksa terhenti beberapa hari.
“Namun, ia tidak mematahkan semangat saya untuk siapkan juga penggambaran itu, apabila cuaca kembali pulih, kami lakukan banyak babak dalam satu hari untuk segera disiapkan seperti disasarkan,” katanya.
Filem Langit Cinta dijayakan oleh Keith Foo, Fazura, Fauziah Ahmad Daud (Ogy), Datuk Jalaluddin Hasan, Farid Kamil dan Siti Saleha.
Diterbitkan oleh Astro Show bersama Alaf 21, filem ini mengisahkan percintaan antara dua darjat. Alif Zulkarnain (Keith Foo) yang berasal dari sebuah keluarga berada sanggup melepaskan segala-galanya demi cintanya terhadap seorang gadis desa, Khadijah (Fazura).
Namun, cinta suci mereka telah ditentang oleh keluarga Alif lalu memisahkan ikatan mereka sebagai suami isteri.

A novelization (or novelisation) is a derivative novel that adapts the story of a work created for another medium, such as a film, TV series, comic book or video game.
Novelization - Wikipedia“Novelization: From Film to Novel is absolutely a joy to read. Baetens basically owns this field, and his scholarship is profound and almost overwhelming. The examples are brilliantly chosen to highlight specific aspects of the film/novelization relationship.” —David Richter, Queen’s College, City University of New York Studies of adaptation from novels to film are common, but not as widely known are adaptations with the opposite relationship. In Novelization: From Film to Novel, Jan Baetens explores how transforming an original film or screenplay into a novel establishes a new genre and revises our understanding of narrative theory more broadly. A typical example of popular literature, novelization has remained an overlooked practice in spite of the cultural and commercial importance of the genre, which is as old as cinema itself.

 This past June, The New York TimesBest Seller List for mass-market paperbacks featured an outlieramong its usual list of suspects. After Inferno by Dan Brown and several books in George R.R. Martin’s A Song of Fire and Iceseries, sat a book adaptation of the blockbuster film Godzilla, written by Greg Cox. Cox’s book is what’s known in the business as a movie “novelization.” The term means exactly what you think it does: it’s a novel based on a film, one fleshed out with a greater attention to character backstory and more descriptive action sequences. If you are unfamiliar with the world of novelizations, your immediate reaction to their existence is likely one of incredulity. To quote my mother during a recent phone conversation we had on the subject, “People buy these books?” Yes, Mom, they do. (Apparently, she did not remember purchasing the novelization of Home Aloneby Todd Strasser for me when I was a kid.) Not every novelization is a hit like Godzilla, of course, nor is it a growing part of the book industry. As studios have made bigger bets on a smaller number of films, the quantity of novelizations produced annually has decreased. But Hollywood hasn’t dropped them completely.
The novelization itself has a surprisingly long history, having popped up almost 100 years ago with silent films like Sparrowsand London After Midnight. According toFilms into Books: An Analytical Bibliography of Film, Novelizations, Movie and TV Tie-Insone of the first mainstream talkies to get the book treatment was the 1933 classic King Kong. As the film industry continued to grow, publishers began producing more of these properties. By the late 1970s, studios were reaping the benefits of global franchises, including Star Wars and Aiien, both of which had novelizations that sold millions of copies. The 80s and 90s brought their fair share of tie-ins too, including everything from Howard the Duck, to Ferris Bueller’s Day Off to Batman & Robin. Today, tie-ins are mainly reserved for science-fiction and fantasy films––tent poles that translate easily into other media and come with built-in audience interest. Novelizations may have made more sense before the advent of home video. Back then, films were released in the theater and often not heard from again. The best way to relive those original memories was to read them in book format (or to use your imagination). So, in an age of DVR and digital outlets, why do people continue to buy these books? It’s the same reason they read 5,000-word TV recaps every week. It’s a way for fans to feel more connected to a story or property they love. When you have a novelization, you get to remember at least a piece of that enthusiasm you experienced the first time around. “People just see it as one other element of the entertainment experience,” says Katy Wild, the editorial director of Titan Publishing Group Ltd., which publishes movie novelizations, including Dawn of the Planet of the Apes and the soon-to-be-released Interstellar. “I think people who read movie novelizations are the people who go see those movies.” Novelization authors are typically paid a flat fee in the low five-figure range to complete the work (if they’re lucky, they may get 1 to 2 percent royalties). The money, however, is only one reason writers sign up in the first place. “I took it for two reasons,” says author Alan Dean Foster, about his decision to get into novelization writing, which has included everything from Star Wars: Episode IV toTerminator Salvation. “First, because I was a young writer and I needed to make a living. And because, as [a fan], I got to make my own director’s cut. I got to fix the science mistakes, I got to enlarge on the characters, if there was a scene I particularly liked, I got to do more of it, and I had an unlimited budget. So it was fun.”
Like many novelization writers, Foster is also an accomplished original fiction author, which is how he ended up falling into the movie tie-in game to begin with. The first novelization he wrote was forLuana, “basically a female Tarzan movie,” from Italy, made in 1968. Since Foster had a Master of Fine Arts in Film from UCLA, and since he had already written three original titles, his editor asked him to take a shot at doing the novelization. The request was easier said than done. “I went down to the office of this sleazo producer who was four floors up and off Hollywood Boulevard and sat down to look at the film, which was all in Italian with no subtitles,” says Foster. “This left me in bad shape. I had no idea what to do.” Without even a script available to work from, Foster improvised, using a custom advertisement created by legendary science-fiction artist Frank Frazetta as his source material. Says Foster, “The star of the film who only appears on screen for about 10 minutes is this very little diminutive Vietnamese girl, and if you know anything about Frank Frazetta you’ll know that Frank did not paint very little diminutive Vietnamese girls. So my female Tarzan was a little bit more Tarzan-ish than in the films.”

We’re all familiar with the concept of movies based on books, but far stranger are film novelizations, in which an author writes a book based on something they’ve seen on the big screen. While a very few novelizations are actually worth taking a look at (Dead Poets Society was required reading at my high school), most of this fanfiction is so awful that you’d feel better reading The National Enquirer. Here are some of the strangest and most terrifying movie novelizations out there:
1. Jumanji by Todd Strasser
No, your eyes aren’t deceiving you: That cover does say “based on a screenplay based on a screen story based on the book by Chris Van Allsburg,” and yes, that is Robin Williams’ bodyless head floating in the abyss above the title. As a child, I was too scared to see the movie version of Van Allsburg’s story about a board game that turns into real life unless you finish it, but somehow I think I’m even more terrified of this book-to-movie-to-book adaptation.
2. Bram Stroker’s Draculaby Unknown
The idea of writing a book based on a movie based on Bram Stroker’s classic was apparently so embarrassing that no one wanted to put their name on this novelization. The mystery writer of this film adaptation isn’t fooling anyone by adding Stroker’s name to the title, although the writer did have the sense to base the paperback off of Coppola’s well-received film instead of some other movie version of the book (like the direct-to-video Dracula II: Ascension). Stroker would probably roll over in his grave if he saw the words “8 pages of full-cover movie photos” advertised on the cover of a paperback based on his classic, but at least it’s more exciting than Sparknotes.
3. The Blob by David Bischoff
You might know Bischoff as the author of your other favorite classic, The Phantom of the Opera (the book based on the movie based on the book). Horror film to paperback book seems to be the most popular execution of the novelization, but it’s unclear as to why Bischoff wanted to make a literary version of a film that only got so-so reviews in the first place. Bischoff’s book is actually based on the 1988 version of the 1958 horror film, so if you’ve always wanted to write up a novelization of the original movie, don’t despair: There’s still room in the market.
4. Child’s Play 3 by Matthew J. Costello
Some of the world’s most expensive books include da Vinci’s Codex Leicester, Shakespeare’s first folio and Child’s Play 3 by Matthew J. Costello. Okay, maybe not quite, but getting your hands on a copy of the third book in this series of novelizations based on Chucky’s violent adventures will cost you, at minimum, $400. The popularity of the novelization is surprising given the fact that the movie was a box office disappointment, but if you’re a hardcore fan, apparently the three-digit price tag is worth it.
5. Jingle All the Way by David Cody Weiss
Is there really such a shortage of Christmas literature on the market that the world had to release a holiday book with Arnold Schwarzenegger on the cover? This novelization, which omits sex scenes and language that’s anything other than PG, is more kid friendly than the actual film. So finally, a way for the whole family to partake in the genius that is Jingle All the Way.
6. Great Expectations by Deborah Chiel
Great Expectations: An important coming-of-age novel about the victory of good over evil, a classic read in English classes across the country, and one of the most popular novels at the time of its publication. The world thanks you for your contribution to the canon, Deborah Chiel.
6. Gremlins by George Gipe
Gremlins was so successful that there was a breakfast cereal named after it, so it’s no surprise that a book followed the release of Spielberg’s film. Gipe’s work actually contains some content not found in the movie, like a backstory that explains the circumstances behind Gremlins’ creation. The original movie is so weird, though, that creating a 77-page book version if it seems even stranger. Just another reason that Furby will forever be terrifying.
7. The Terminator by Randall Frakes and Bill Wisher
Arnold Schwarzenegger movies, it seems, are prime candidates for novelizations. Frakes’ and Wisher’s literary masterpiece deserves a spot on this list not because of anything having to do with the film it’s based off of, but because it’s hard to believe that anyone would rather read a paperback version of one of America’s most popular action films than see the movie. If you have to use your imagination to hear Schwarzenegger growl his iconic “I’ll be back,” then what’s the point?
8. Broken Arrow by Jeff Rovin
Broken Arrow is basically a movie about two guys getting hit by bullets, fireballs and, memorably, one man getting his throat smashed in with a flashlight. The plot is so based on scenes of things exploding that it’s questionable as to what exactly made this manuscript 200 pages long. A more reasonable novelization would probably be as long as, well, this paragraph.
