Yu Xiaotong frowned slightly and looked at Director Zhu with some displeasure.
This one has been stuck almost ten times. She feels that her performance is quite normal and there is nothing wrong with it. I don’t know why Director Zhu always shouts “one more” after reviewing it without telling them what is wrong and needs to be adjusted. , just know to let them do it again.
With so many staff members watching, and this being their first scene, it’s easy to question their professional capabilities after being stuck so many times! Especially when Yu Xiaotong glanced at the crowd with her peripheral vision during the filming process, they gathered in groups of twos and threes, looking towards her and whispering. Yu Xiaotong always felt that they were mocking her, and her face naturally looked ugly.
In fact, what these staff members said was completely different from what Yu Xiaotong was thinking! The staff are all saying that Director Zhu is too strict, and they don’t know how high the standard is. Why are they still shouting "stuck" when the filming is already so good? To put it nicely, it means striving for perfection, but to put it ugly, it is just nitpicking. Well!
Obviously, the young lovers played by Yu Xiaotong and Chen Cheng have a very romantic atmosphere. The handsome man and the beautiful woman make people laugh so hard!
Chen Cheng tilted his head and looked in the direction of Director Zhu. Although he said nothing, his meaning was the same as Yu Xiaotong's. The makeup artist who was standing by and hurriedly stepped forward to touch up his makeup and style his hair during the shooting break. After Chen Cheng took the initiative to tilt his head and shrink his neck, he could only pause for a moment. The hand holding the powder puff felt a little awkward. He was frozen in the air and turned to look at Director Zhu.
After the heroine Yu Xiaotong spoke, other on-site staff also turned their attention to Director Zhu. For a moment, almost everyone present was waiting for Director Zhu's answer.
Director Zhu looked around the crowd and replied slowly, "Xiaotong, that's it. Let me tell you two. You two acted very well, with good emotions and expressions." It's all right, but there's one thing that's not very good, that is, your two performances are too stereotyped and not natural at all... I was thinking that if you filmed it a few more times, you might not be so deliberate, and your movements and speech would all be casual. Some..."
Director Zhu explained his point of view, and then added tactfully, "Today is the first game, don't be in a hurry, we just need to find a tacit understanding with each other first. Everything is difficult at the beginning, just getting used to it, that's it. "
Hearing this, Yu Xiaotong's facial expression relaxed a little, and he nodded and said, "Okay, Director Zhu, if you say so, we will understand."
After finishing speaking, he turned his head and looked at Chen Cheng aside, and said teasingly, "Brother Cheng, you heard that, Director Zhu said that we two have no sense of camaraderie!"
"If you don't have a sense of CP, then you should cultivate it more. We still have time!" A smile overflowed from the corner of Chen Cheng's lips, "And as long as the camera is positioned correctly, tables and chairs can be combined to create a sense of CP, let alone us."
As the record was recorded again, the two quickly entered business...
Assistant Director Wang turned his head and looked at Jiang Ran, who was obediently sitting next to the monitor and watching the video. He took advantage of the break in filming to say hello and chat with her, "I've been on the set for a few days. How does it feel? What you see in the camera is different from what you see on set, right?"
As a new actor, Jiang Ran only took a temporary acting training class and had no practical experience, so it was a bit slow to integrate into the crew. Therefore, when the director and others arranged the schedule for the filming sessions, they first arranged other people's roles at the front and asked Jiang Ran to sit aside and watch and learn from it, so that he could enter the life of the crew more quickly and adapt to the filming mode of the crew. .
So even if there are no filming tasks these days, Jiang Ran will move a small bench and sit next to Director Zhu to watch them act. She also watches even the filming scenes of group actors. She can always learn some new knowledge from them, even if she wakes up early in the dark. , rain or shine. In just a few days, Jiang Ran had become familiar with some of the staff around her.
Director Zhu, the male and female protagonists stayed up late last night to shoot the night scene, so they were all given a day off this morning to let them rest. Some of the group scenes to be shot now were controlled by Assistant Director Wang. Jiang Ran yesterday They went back after the filming in the evening. Since they didn't have to take off makeup and arrange props, they had to finish work a little earlier than the male and female lead. They also got up a little later than usual this morning and arrived at the set at almost ten o'clock.
"Hmm... It feels different from our group's previous filming for endorsements, advertisements and magazines." Jiang Ran pondered for a moment, then replied seriously , "We have a lot more staff at the filming site, everyone Everyone performs their own duties and does their own thing, which looks more professional. Moreover, you must first understand the script before performing it for others. Everyone may understand the same sentence differently, so the performance effect is also different. ."
"And when you look at it with your eyes on set, it feels like a 3D stereoscopic thing, but when you shoot it, it's flat, so the visual effect will be much different. When you watch it on TV, it's very logical and coherent. When you shoot it, it's very logical and coherent. The clips are very fragmented, and the story development sequence is not shot linearly, so the requirements for actors are relatively high. The lines also have a great impact on the plot..."
After a pause, Jiang Ran continued, "Sometimes there is a gap between what I want to perform and the effect I achieve in actual performance. I feel that filming is actually quite difficult, but I will study hard and strive to be the best in my own performance. Don't go NG a few times during the shooting, and try not to increase the workload for you. Um... No, I always feel that I am setting a flag that is going to fall. Is it too late for me to take it back now..."
Assistant Director Wang listened to Jiang Ran talking a lot, and at the end she seemed to be talking to herself. A few black lines couldn't help but fall off her forehead. He endured it again and again before he could bear the idea of interrupting her and waited for her to think deeply. After a while, he asked again, "So what is your conclusion?"
"Conclusion..." Jiang Ran repeated and then replied, "The conclusion is that being an actor is not an easy profession. I still have a lot to learn and I will have to work harder in the future."
"Work hard!" Assistant Director Wang encouraged him. He glanced at the progress of the staff setting up the shooting scene, and suddenly remembered something and asked, "Is your scene going to be filmed soon?"
Jiang Ran took out her mobile phone and looked through the electronic shooting schedule notice, "It should be soon. I remember it seemed like it was tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. Oh, yes, it was the afternoon of the day after tomorrow. Ah! My first scene was with Teacher Chen Cheng is acting opposite..."
Assistant Director Wang checked that the picture was OK, held the walkie-talkie and said, "Okay, the staff will evacuate the scene, and the actors please get in place. All departments are getting ready, the first scene of 'Street Fight'... action!"
Seeing Assistant Director Wang who was concentrating on the monitor and not distracted at all, Jiang Ran sighed inwardly. Ever since she realized that it would be her turn to act in two days, she had become extremely sentimental. She looked at the shooting scene but forgot about it. She seemed to be looking at it very seriously, but in fact, she didn't take in anything. I don’t know where my mind has drifted.
After being in a daze for a while, Jiang Ran took out the script from his bag, found his first scene and studied the script carefully. After reading a few lines of words back and forth so many times, she almost saw holes in the page, and Jiang Ran's frown did not loosen.
"Alas..." Jiang Ran couldn't help but sigh in her heart. She was already worried about what she would do if she made too many mistakes when she was acting.
Jiang Ran didn't have long to observe and learn. Within two days, it was Jiang Ran's turn to take the stage. According to the shooting content on the notice, her first scene to be filmed was when she was sleeping in bed in the morning and her brother knocked on the door. Wake up sequence.
After the venue was set up, Director Zhu also deliberately explained to Jiang Ran the content of the scene and the effects he wanted before the shooting started, chewing it apart and explaining it clearly, for fear that Jiang Ran wouldn't understand. He even demonstrated it in person and asked, "That's it, okay?"
"Yeah, yeah, yeah." Jiang Ran nodded repeatedly to express understanding, but what she was thinking in her heart was, "I understand, I understand, but my body may not understand when I perform later."
"Then let's give it a try!" Director Zhu saw that Jiang Ran's whole body was tense with nervousness, and his voice became softer and comforted, "Don't be too nervous, the pressure doesn't need to be so great, just relax."
Jiang Ran nodded and responded quickly, "Okay, Director Zhu."
After all the preparations for this scene were completed, the director held the walkie-talkie and shouted "action!"
After the recording board quickly left the recording area of the machine, Jiang Ran lay on the bed pretending to be asleep, in full view of the surrounding staff, and waited for the machine to record the part.
Then within a few seconds, I heard Director Zhu shouting "click".
Jiang Ran was not surprised at all when she was told to stop for the first time. After all, she was a newbie. No matter how well she learned theoretical knowledge, some problems would inevitably arise the first time she practiced. What's more, she wasn't very good at learning in the first place. It's not even half filled with water. It would be really weird if there is no problem.
So Jiang Ran opened her eyes very calmly and sat up and looked at Director Zhu, waiting for his evaluation and guidance.
"Jiang Ran, don't look so stiff and tense, and don't lie down so straight and straight. You are asleep, not dead."
"Okay." Jiang Ran nodded in agreement, and lay back down again. According to the director's words, he deliberately slept with his teeth and claws open. After thinking about it, he raised his hand to ruffle his hair. After he was ready, he closed his eyes and said: Make an "OK" gesture to indicate that you can start shooting.
"Come on, get ready, let's do another one."
As soon as the director finished speaking, the keeper took out a newly written slate and shouted, "Ten scenes, one shot, twice!"
