"This movie requires one person to play two roles, two clones who look exactly the same, and have the same experience and memory. ”

"Clone 5, as it is called, is an ordinary person working on the moon, he has a wife and children, waiting for him to return home and reunite on Earth, he is a lonely but hopeful ordinary person, but due to the genetic defects of the clones, coupled with injuries, his body is gradually weakening.

"And Clone 6 also has a wife and children on Earth, and their wives and children are naturally the same person, but this clone has just woken up and is in good health. ”

"There is a clear difference in the physical condition of the two people, and they will have to put on makeup later, and although they have the same memories transplanted as clones, one has been working on the moon for many years, and the other has just been activated, and the personalities of the two people are completely different, and both sides know each other's identities. ”

......

Li Qian told them all about the two characters and the general plot, and then gave them a little time to figure it out for themselves.

Watching Li Qian leave the conference room, several actors did not talk to each other, and their attention was focused on the thin piece of paper in front of them.

The leading actor of the new movie directed by the box office of 100 million yuan, this kind of role is a huge temptation for any actor.

Not to mention one step to the sky, at least it can make anyone take a big step forward.

Even Chen Kun and Liu Ye, who are the biggest coffee positions, have not taken on such an important role since their debut.

Chen Kun just finished filming "Painted Skin", although there are many scenes, but Donnie Yen is the absolute leading actor, and the salary of one person is also the sum of the three of them.

According to the official ranking set by the crew, Donnie Yen, the biggest name, is the No. 1 role, Zhou Xun is the No. 2, Chen Kun is the No. 3, and Zhao Wei is the No. 4.

The second male lead with a large cost of 80 million is already the best role Chen Kun has ever taken.

Although Li Qian's movie doesn't know how much it costs, it is more important than "Painted Skin" with the last movie breaking 100 million.

Liu Ye is also in a period of transition, wanting to transform from a literary student to a big screen tough guy, so he has connected several gangster bosses, as long as he takes over the actor of a blockbuster movie, then the transformation is nothing.

These two Mesozoic leaders are like this, not to mention others, and even they are not first-line actors, as long as they get this role, they will directly step into the front line.

......

After more than an hour, I put on my makeup and auditions.

"According to the previous composition, I arranged a standing position for Chen Kun, using the center of the conference table in front of me as the benchmark. ”

Li Qian added a light barrier between the lens and the photosensitive film, and instructed Su Lun.

"Okay, Director Li. ”

Su Lun hurriedly went to arrange for Chen Kun to restrain the two clones from stationing.

To see the effect of an actor playing two roles in the same frame, the most intuitive thing is, of course, to shoot it directly.

This is not a replicant, the two clones have completely different personalities, temperaments, tone of voice, and intonation, and it can be said that they are all different except for their appearance and memory.

This shot is where Clone 6 gets upset and says "how could I talk to a clone".

Clone 5 then reluctantly admits that he is a clone, and emphasizes that the other person is a clone three times.

is a very simple dialogue, and there is no front and back in the same frame in the movie, it is a front and back switching shot.

Audition is to see the effect of the same frame, two people into one shot, no need to come according to the script.

There are many ways to shoot this kind of scene where one person plays two roles, and Li Qian used the camera to shoot directly.

Add a plate between the lens and the film, because of the blind, only part of the film can be sensitized, so that the actor appears on the left side of the frame and plays against the air.

The right half of the film is not sensitive to light due to the blind, so after shooting, the film is rewound back to the left, the blind is moved to the left, the actor is switched to the right, and another character is played and then the shooting, and the camera and background remain in place throughout the whole process.

Shoot a scene where two actors are in the same frame head-on, but there is no physical contact, so it's easy to shoot.

There are many methods, anyway, the audition is directly used in the simplest, the film is processed quickly, and then choose different shooting methods according to the situation when shooting.

The day's auditions passed quickly, and each actor filmed seven or eight times, first drawing the makeup of the frail Clone 5, then changing the makeup after the performance, and playing the Clone 6 on the other side.

In the afternoon, after sending off the actors, Zhang Zhao took the film to the printing factory, processed it, and then converted it into a digital image.

Early the next morning, the samples were delivered, and Li Qian watched their performances one by one in front of the computer.

One morning, more than 50 shots, carefully watched it.

There is no problem with the acting skills, and most of these actors can win the actor when they encounter the right role, so there is no need to worry about this aspect at all.

But no matter how good the acting skills are, there must be a suitable role.

First of all, Duan Yihong was excluded, even if he had acted in a drama for so many years, his face was too fierce, and he couldn't change it.

Then there is Zhu Feng, Zhu Feng's physiognomy is very consistent with Clone 5, he looks weak, but Clone 6 is much more disobedient.

Pan Yueming and Li Qian have a TV series in their memory in which he played two roles, but he also couldn't support Clone 6.

Although the two clones in this movie are the protagonists, No. 5 appears first, and there is more space about him personally, which is actually relatively simple.

When Clone 6 appeared, the audience already had some understanding of the same looking No. 5, and when there were fewer scenes, and there were many fewer lines, and he looked exactly the same as the "protagonist", it was actually more difficult to shape.

Clone 6 didn't go through those three years of life on the moon and was more sane at first.

I have not experienced the feeling of waiting for three years and having lost hope when it comes to the end.

The simpler the character, the more difficult it is to create, after all, the experience of No. 5 itself is easy for the audience to substitute.

Chen Kun's temperament is not suitable for playing ordinary people.

The same joys, sorrows, and sorrows are manifested differently in people of different identities.

Clone 5 in the movie, in addition to the identity of the clone, is an ordinary employee who was sent to a remote area, not an astronaut or anything like that.

In the background of the movie, technology is developed and it is already possible to land on the moon casually, otherwise the people sent by the company would not have arrived so quickly.

In fact, the most suitable is Huang Bo, especially Clone 5, 5 is a very poor character, a perfect match.

But what does Huang Bo say, his performance style has a characteristic, which is particularly expressive.

And in the movie "Moon", the two clones are to be closed, and the overall style of the movie does not have a particularly obvious emotional catharsis.

As for Liu Ye, he is too tall, his height is not only a problem of not being able to play with other actors, the height of about 1.84 meters is relatively tall in Hollywood, most of them are between 1.70 meters and 1.80 meters.

Just finished filming "Tough Guy", the whole person has changed significantly compared to before. Tall and strong, it will be more noticeable on the big screen.

Moreover, Liu Ye, who was a literary student with Chen Kun at the beginning, has undergone tremendous changes in appearance and temperament.

After thinking about it, Li Qian finally chose Huang Bo.

Be more expressive, and you can also add a little laugh to the relationship between the two clones in the movie.

The two of themselves look exactly the same, and they have exactly the same implanted memories, but their personalities and tempers are completely different, which is a conflict.

If there is a conflict, it will lead to some jokes.

And although Clone 5 didn't believe that he was a clone at first, he actually believed it in his heart, but he waited on the moon for three years in vain, but the wife and daughter he cared about were not his own.

It's just that I don't want to believe it.

In this case, in order to hide your heart, do something that is more difficult to make yourself happy, and deliberately show a positive and cheerful personality, it is also normal.

......

The next day, Li Qian asked Huang Bo to sign the contract, and at the same time, the news that Li Qian was going to make a new film also began to spread.
