Snow-capped mountain cliffs and ancient trees towering to the sky. The guards stand like rocks, and the refugees seem to mourn all over the field. Everything is quiet, everything is bleak, only Xie Qiwang is waving the golden finger in his hand and pretending to be forced in front of people......

The first shot shot at the start of the film is a monologue before Duke Wuhuan conquers Snow Country, before slaughtering Snow Country.

He Xin put on makeup, changed into the same Snow Country costumes as the group performers on the scene, and came to the studio to watch. Similarly, Zhang Dongjian, who participated in the opening ceremony today and did not arrange a scene, was also on the scene at this time.

Both of them may have the same purpose, although they have communicated with the director before, but after all, this is different from the feeling on the shooting site, and they can understand the director's style and intentions more intuitively on the shooting site. At the same time, you can also take this opportunity to learn about the performances of your peers.

The camera moves slowly on the track, and what appears in the camera is the footsteps of King Xie Qi, pacing back and forth, while the bound Snow Countryers and the surrounding guards are all standing still, and everyone's eyes are focused on him.

As the camera slowly moved up, I saw the golden finger in his hand playing a beautiful flower gun, facing the crowd sideways, and before he could open his mouth to recite the line in the style of Shakespeare's stage play, his ears came:

"Cards!"

Then I saw Chen Dadao's tall figure stand up from behind the monitor, personally walked to King Xie Qi's side, took the golden finger in his hand, and then said: "Don't move too much, you can use the golden finger like this...... It can be ...... like that."

While speaking, Director Chen also personally demonstrated to King Xie Qi, holding the golden finger behind him with his backhand, or holding it in front of him, and at the same time said: "You are the Duke of the North who is above 10,000 people under one person, what you need to show is majesty, don't add other superfluous actions." ”

Xie Qiwang was obviously a little embarrassed, the action of playing with the spear just now was added by him temporarily, and it was also a matter of habit, and he was already used to showing his cool and handsome side in the performance. The result backfired, although Director Chen said it explicitly, the subtext obviously expressed disdain for the action he thought was cool and handsome just now.

Of course, Xie Qiwang didn't dare to be awesome in front of Director Chen, so he had to say honestly: "Got it, director!"

“act！”

The action is standardized, but when he was given a close-up of his side face, he heard Director Chen shouting: "Card!"

"Nicholas, look, pay attention to your eyes!"

"Understood, Director!"

"Do it all over again!"

......

"Cards!"

"Yes, Nicholas, but you'd better have a sharper look!"

......

"Cards!"

",,, Nicholas, it's not ferocious, it's sharp, understand?"

"Uh, understood!"

"Okay, come again!"

......

......

It took six close-ups of this side face alone to finally hear a sound in Director Chen's mouth:

"This is over!"

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Because this scene is not Xie Qiwang's scene alone, and there are hundreds of people on the scene who are working as human flesh backgrounds to cooperate with his performance. Fortunately, the group performers found include Nortel students, those old actors from the Kongzheng Drama Troupe and Mandarin, as well as college students from Langfang Oriental University Town who are very obedient, otherwise it would have to be chaotic to change to an ordinary group performance.

He Xin hadn't seen many movies played by Xie Qiwang in his previous life, and what impressed him was probably the keywords that stayed at Zhang Baiju's ex-husband, the diva's boyfriend, green hat, cook, etc.

As the saying goes: as soon as the connoisseur stretches out his hand, he knows if there is one.

In just two shots, it was enough for him to figure out the path of this so-called Hong Kong superstar. Not only him, but even Zhang Dongjian, who has always shown himself as a modest, sincere, and polite person, inadvertently, showed a hint of ridicule at the corner of his mouth.

It is said that those so-called Hong Kong stars often act in bad movies, and their acting skills naturally increase. Probably because this young Hong Kong superstar has not yet cultivated at home, the grinding of bad movies is not enough, and his acting skills are really ...... Very poor!

However, the next scene quickly made He Xin overturn his previous comment that Xie Qiwang's acting skills were very poor, maybe people don't have acting skills at all.

Because then he began to perform a large monologue in the style of Shakespeare's stage plays, the so-called monologue is not just to make you stand there stunned and say it, but also to match the rich body language and expressions.

Not to mention his awkward Mandarin and the unaesthetic lines that came out of his mouth, it really made those old drama actors who made cameos in the air politics and Mandarin of the Snow Country, and it is estimated that even those students of Nortel will scoff at it.

Of course, the pitch of the lines is not accurate, whether the lines are beautiful or not, these are not important, anyway, there will be dubbing in the future. Although Director Chen insisted on letting each actor dub by himself, he also set aside enough time for them to prepare.

It's just that the lines can't be compensated for by dubbing, and the body language and expressions that can match the lines can't be said to be too good.

One, two, three...... took more than a dozen shots in a row, not only did Xie Qiwang's face become difficult to look at, but Director Chen also kept his eyebrows tight, and finally had to adjust the shooting method, changing the middle scene to a close-up of the face, and even added a rotating lens, and then did not shoot the front, and came with a big panorama from the back.

This way of filming undoubtedly weakens the actors' performances indefinitely, and although Xie Qiwang's face is ugly, he has to accept this way of shooting.

However, when Director Chen shouted, he was still unconvinced, because the next shot was He Xin's play, and he didn't want to watch a good show and PK in his heart.

In fact, He Xin, who was waiting on the side, was eager to try it for a long time, although the shots just now were fragmentary, but including the set and lines, this is clearly a stage play, and it is not a stage play that needs to be performed coherently, and you can stop and rest anytime and anywhere.

Maybe it was more like a stage play rehearsal class, but the opportunity to rehearse in such a grandiose, realistic setting was extremely rare, so he wanted to go up and give it a try.

With Chen Dadao's "act!"

The guards fired thousands of arrows, of course, it was just a bluff, and the scene of ten thousand arrows firing at the same time required post-production of special effects.

Then, the Snowpiercers, tied together in piles and piles, began to struggle and shout.

It's a long, three-minute shot, with director of photography Peter Cannon personally controlling the swingarm, first in a large panorama, then from far and near, and then slowly passing over the heads of the struggling ensemble.

Director Chen stared at the picture in the monitor, couldn't help but smile, those Snow Country people who stood in the front row and gave a close-up view, the eyes and expressions full of pain, accompanied by rich body movements, in the end, are all old actors who have been immersed in the stage for most of their lives, and they are really extraordinary.

It's just that when the camera slowly shifted to one of the crowds, Director Chen couldn't help frowning, and without hesitation, he picked up the walkie-talkie and shouted: "Click!"

Then I exchanged two sentences with the executive director on the other end of the intercom.

The executive director held a loudspeaker and shouted at several young group performers around He Xin: "Don't look at the camera, when the machine comes, you will treat it as if it doesn't exist, just follow the actions rehearsed before, do you understand?"

"Understood!"

"Got it!"

"Got it!"

Answers were sparse.

"Okay, come again!"

Because it's a long shot, I have to do it all over again.

It's just that this time the camera was stopped as soon as it swept over.

The executive director ran over with a big microphone and said angrily: "If you don't look at the camera, it doesn't mean that you won't move!

"I'm sorry, Director!" A few of the buddies were probably too nervous and a little blindsided.

Seeing this, He Xin turned his head to look at these people, and said with a smile: "At the beginning of a while, you don't care where the camera is, just squeeze it desperately on me, and when I shout out, you want to hold me desperately." ”

It was much simpler to say this, and several people hurriedly said: "Thank you, new brother!"

Then there is the third one, a dozen boards:

“act！”

He Xin, who was standing in the center of the crowd, was suddenly staggered by the force from several sides, but fortunately, their group of people was encircled together by ropes, and it was not easy for people to fall.

Let the group performer leave the camera alone, it doesn't mean that He Xin doesn't care, he always looks at the camera slowly moving on the big rocker arm with the peripheral vision of his eyes, and silently counts down "3,2,1...... in his heart

"Let me be your slave!"

"Let me be your slave!"

What is the most important thing about stage plays?

It's the explosiveness and contagiousness of emotions!

As the camera slowly zooms in.

At this moment, He Xin suddenly erupted, in the crowded crowd, like a drowning person, raising his hands high, desperately waving upward, and his voice was more like a cry from the bottom of his heart.

The muscles were exposed, pulling the crowd in front of him, like grasping a life-saving straw......
