Biography
Born in Los Angeles February 17, 1965. He grew up in a family of foster parents and considers them his real family. As a child, the boy was fond of modeling and pyrotechnic experiments. Even then, the love of all sorts of noisy effects made itself felt.
Michael graduated from the famous Crossroads High School and entered the University of the Arts at Wesleyan Middeltaune. Bay was markedly different from the majority of their peers: limited appetite for gloomy subjects, preferring the light and spectacular film. After graduating, he devoted himself to the creation of commercials and music videos. His work has been successful, the young man was able to discover their talents. He shot the video for Lionel Richie and Tina Turner and commercials for world famous brands Coca-Cola, Reebok, Victoria’s Secret, Nike and Miller. Michael has repeatedly been nominated for the prestigious award of the advertising world. In 1995, he received the Directors Guild of America Award in the category “Director of the Year”. For a series of commercials, urging Americans to drink milk, Michael was awarded the “Silver Lion” at the Cannes Film Festival. Jobs entered the top 10 best commercials of all time, and now preserved in the collection of the New York Museum of Modern Art.
Career Bay in cinema began in 1995, when producer Jerry Bruckheimer and Simpson House asked him to become the director of the police action comedy “Bad Boys.” Nobody expected much success from the tape: Actor-director led the newcomers, not even shot a single film. Michael regarded this work as a chance to express themselves in kinematogrofa. He squeezed the maximum from the beginning of comedy improvisation Will Smith and Martin Lawrence, and put his own money into additional special effects. The result exceeded all expectations. Painting with a budget of just over 20 million in worldwide box office collected about 150. Both actors, starred, received worldwide fame and Bay – a new large-scale project: in 1996, the same producer tandem invited Michael to direct big-budget action film “The Rock”. The film stars Sean Connery received and Nicolas Cage. In this tape, as in the previous, Bay offered the actors to modify their characters and improvise on the set, and he focused all his attention on the special effects. For example, a car chase scene appeared in the film exclusively on his initiative. He later recalled that the shooting of the episode turned into a nightmare. To obtain permission to “conduct chase”, I had to collect signatures from residents of several quarters. On approval it took several months. When the costs of shooting in 75 million dollars, the film has collected in world hire more than 300 million.
In 1998, Bay takes fiction film “Armageddon.” The reaction of critics on him was twofold: he was both nominated on “Oscar” and the prize “Golden Raspberry”, which traditionally marks the worst work in the film. more than 150 technical errors were found in the tape. Nevertheless, the picture is more than paid for investments, has collected in world hire more than 500 million dollars.
Continuing the patriotic line, in 2001, Michael takes “Pearl Harbor.” Again mixed reviews: some nominations for “Golden Raspberry”, “Oscar”, “Golden Globe” award and the MTV channel. The picture proved commercially successful. This was followed by the sequel “Bad Boys” and “The Island”, the first film Michael without the participation of producer Bruckheimer. New breakthrough was the blockbuster “Transformers,” released in 2007: fiction thriller based on the eponymous animated series. The director agreed to take part in the filming not immediately, as had never been a fan of Transformers and did not want to participate in such serious, “toy” project. Spielberg’s idea to file the story as “a story about a boy and his car” Bayh interested, fascinated, and the opportunity to create a dynamic and effective film, interesting even for those who are not interested in a fictional universe. Michael declined to 30% of their fees in order to save budget and managed to enlist the support of the US Army in conducting surveys. Charges paintings exceeded the $ 700 million, making it the most grossing film of the year 2007. Two works, continue the story of “Transformers”, Bai brought a huge income and a nomination for the “Golden Raspberry” and “Oscar”. In 2013 planned output is based on a true story black comedy “blood and sweat”.
