Chapter 427: The Candidate for Winter Melon
"Okay, you've heard the casting request, everyone relax, just show the state of your usual training, and don't get flaws because you're too nervous. ”
The teacher in charge of acting training is also reassuring the trainees.
After all, she has been teaching by hand for so long, and she is personally looking forward to the performance of the trainees, and she doesn't want them to make too many mistakes, if they all perform badly, it also shows the lack of her personal ability, she naturally hopes that everyone will perform well and leave a deep impression in Chen Mubai's heart.
"This time it's for you to have a clip, you go and act by yourself, you have half an hour to prepare, I'll send the script to you now, you can do it well!" Chen Mubai gave the selection rules.
It's a bit like the standard of audition, the roles needed in the play are given to them, let them choose by themselves, and then play them.
The male and female protagonists have been decided, and the remaining key roles are vacant, such as Sun Xiaoxiao, a rich second-generation female colleague who has a relationship with Liu Yiyang, and his good buddy Dong Gua, Tong Jiaqian's cousin, etc.
The original character of Winter Melon is a bit chubby, and then he also has some characteristics in terms of personality, he is a funny person, and he is a more assertive person, very shrewd, and Liu Yiyang is a buddy, and he will solve problems for him and give advice, but he will have his own little Jiujiu in his heart.
is a person who can be trusted, but he does not believe in Liu Yiyang brainlessly, and he is a well-known person who is very self-aware and willing to fight.
Chen Mubai decided not to give Qian Duoduo to play this role, because this role is similar to Xiang Nanman, and he wants Qian Duoduo to play different roles and make a breakthrough for himself.
So he gave Qian Duoduo another role, Du Yi.
This is the role of a classmate with Tong Jiaqian, and it is also the person who will rob Tong Jiaqian with Liu Yiyang in the play.
This person is almost a perfect man's template, with a good family, a car and a house.
is good-looking, has a career and money, is also single-minded in his feelings, has always liked Tong Jiaqian, and has watched her silently for eight years.
It wasn't until later that she knew that she was not doing well, and was willing to accept a single mother with a child, and was able to convince her mother, which is something that many successful people can't do.
Compared with Liu Yiyang, Du Yi's role is more like a template for the protagonist, and it is more favorable than Liu Yiyang, who has a cowardly personality, and this kind of role is also difficult to play.
First of all, in terms of temperament, this is quite consistent with Qian Duoduo, after all, his own identity is the rich second generation, which means that he has a bit of true colors.
Again, this kind of man has a higher desire for love, but it will not be obvious to show it, the gaze of the beloved is deep, and it should be more manifested from the eyes, action and eyes are two aspects.
Characters that can not be supported entirely by lines and actions need to be performed with their eyes.
This is the reason why Chen Mubai gave Qian Duoduo to play this role, although the role is not as much as winter melon, but the performance of the role is more in-depth, which allows Qian Duoduo to try a deep interpretation.
Lin Xue's words, Chen Mubai wanted to arrange the role of Sun Xiaoxiao for her, the eccentric rich second generation, who had conflicts with Liu Yiyang in the early stage, but later fell in love with Liu Yiyang, and finally was with winter melon.
The difficulty of interpreting this role is not particularly high, mainly because of several changes in mood, Chen Mubai believes that Lin Xue can play it well.
This role is still different from the last time she played Yang Xiaoyun, there are differences in character background, demeanor and action, and behavior.
Winter melon, a role with a lot of scenes, Chen Mubai decided to take it out and openly select one, which can be regarded as cultivating newcomers.
The rest, such as Tong Jiaqian's cousin Chen Jiaojiao, will play Shang Ran, and Chen Jiaojiao's lover Huang Youwei and her husband Cui Bin will choose roles from here.
In addition to the roles of parents, grandparents and grandparents, middle-aged and elderly people will be selected, and the rest of the young people will be selected from the trainees.
"There are several copies of the script, and the corresponding characters have different personalities, you can choose the role you think you can do, there is only one chance, if you can't play it, you will wait for the next opportunity. The acting teacher said.
This is what Chen Mubai communicated with her in advance, otherwise if everyone plays every role, there will be not enough time.
Choosing a role is not only a test for Chen Mubai and others, but also a test for the trainees themselves.
After a year of practice, everyone knows their strengths and weaknesses, so they will roughly know what kind of role they are suitable for, and if they can't grasp this point, then they can only practice more.
If you have to rush to perform a role that is not suitable for you, if the result is not good, you have to pay for your own behavior.
"You start with these plays, as well as the background introduction of the characters. ”
"After choosing what suits you, let's figure it out, and when the time comes, I'll play them one by one. ”
Generally speaking, the background introduction of the characters is a basic introduction, and deeper things, such as the habits of the characters and the inner emotions of the characters, need to be known by the actors themselves to understand and figure out the characters.
All aspects of the same character's personality may have different ways of performing in the cognition of different actors, and everyone will perform according to their own cognition.
But this time is urgent, there must not be so much time for these trainees to figure it out, so Chen Mubai can only give a standard answer and let everyone deduce, which can be regarded as the same starting point.
The trainees who get the role, in the follow-up roles, can figure out the role according to the script, and then add some of their own things, which Chen Mubai will not object, as long as it does not violate the behavior of the character itself.
A group of trainees stepped forward to check the script, and after reading all the scripts, they chose the one that suited them.
said that it was a script, but in fact, it was a performance of a play, and I finished reading it quickly.
When the trainees play the role, Chen Mubai and the acting teacher are responsible for accompanying him to play, just like the crew's public casting.
Chen Mubai and the acting teacher went out, giving the trainees space to immerse themselves, so that they could figure out the role more comfortably.
As the chief examiners, the two of them will definitely affect the state of the trainees in the room, and they will give pressure.
The trainees were all reading the script, memorizing a few lines, and then rehearsing the performance in their minds, pondering what kind of way to interpret it more appropriately.
"Do you have anyone you like?" asked Chen Mubai after going out.
The script was also written by Chen Mubai, so each character should have a general impression in his mind, that is, the basic actors and roles are more consistent.
Looks, demeanor, figure, etc. can be things that fit the role and the actor, not measured from the aspect of acting skills.
If an actor fits the role very well, then there is a high probability that he will choose this person to play the role.
Just like the choice of three actors, one has superb acting skills, but it is completely opposite to the role that needs to be played, one has average acting skills, partially overlapping with the role, and the other has no acting skills, but it is highly suitable for the role, this situation depends on how the director chooses.
Some people will choose one, the big director will choose three, and the second one is basically not chosen, which is too modest.
Because the image is more in line with his setting, he is also confident that he can train the actor well and make him more in line with the role in his heart.
That's why the teacher asked.
"Yes. Chen Mubai nodded decisively.
After hearing this, the teacher nodded, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
Chen Mubai said with a smile: "But I pay more attention to acting, and the person I am optimistic about has also chosen the role I imagined in my heart, so I didn't disappoint." ”
The teacher was surprised, and he said, "Could it be Xia Fan?"
"Yes. Chen Mubai decisively admitted.
It makes sense in this way, Xia Fan played the role of Gao Qiang in "Struggle", and Chen Mubai later asked him to come back to learn acting, mainly in terms of literary drama.
As a martial arts actor, Xia Fan is relatively weak in literature and drama, and his acting skills are all on the surface, crying when he should cry, laughing when he should laugh, and he has not yet reached the point of being outstanding.
Martial arts actors with good acting skills have long been signed by others, so how can it be Mubai's turn to be entertained.
Generally speaking, the requirements for acting skills will be appropriately lowered in martial arts actors, after all, their roles are mainly fighting, and the audience is easy to ignore the acting skills, as long as they are good.
Martial arts actors have excellent acting skills, and all of them are top stars in the circle, which is fragrant.
Most of those who are not good at acting can only be regarded as special actors, or martial arts instructors.
As for Xia Fan being discovered, it was because Chen Mubai felt that he had the potential to be shaped, when he inspected the filming location before filming "Struggle", he happened to see a crew filming, Xia Fan is one of the special actors, a person in the rivers and lakes with a bit of a scene, with martial arts.
Chen Mubai watched one of his plays and felt that he had potential, so he asked him if he had signed the company, and then signed him back.
"Xia Fan chose the role of winter melon. The teacher recalled with a frown.
"Hmm. ”
The appearance of the winter melon's character is a little fat, a little dark, and not very tall.
Xia Fan is not very tall because of his martial arts practice, and coupled with the perennial filming, the skin on his body is also dark, a little bronzed.
Although it is not fat, it has muscles, and it seems that the whole person is relatively strong, which is in line with the appearance of winter melon.
Chen Mubai just wants to hone Xia Fan's acting skills, and then train him, so that he can play roles in scripts with martial arts scenes in the future to improve his acting skills.
Martial arts require a long period of practice, and it is difficult for a layman to shoot.
Either it's a stand-in shooting, or if the actor comes by himself, he has to shoot many times, and he has to shoot slowly one move at a time.
But martial arts actors are different, many times it is very convenient to shoot, which is an advantage that other actors do not have, so Chen Mubai chose Xia Fan and took the time to improve his literary drama.
The time to improve literary drama is much faster than that of martial arts, and it does not require Xia Fan to reach a high standard, at least to exceed basic acting skills.
Cultivating Xia Fan is much shorter than cultivating an actor who is good at literature and drama and then practicing martial arts, and it is still quite difficult to get started with martial arts.
"Xia Fan is also very serious when he is studying, and his progress is much faster, and he has more experience in acting than those students, so he is a good seedling. The teacher agreed.
Xia Fan is a very prominent one among the trainees, older than all of them, in his 30s, dark-skinned, and a little fierce-looking, no matter how you look at it, he doesn't look like a person who can be a trainee.
