Chapter 22: Auditions

At 11 o'clock in the morning, Hengdian Film and Television Base, Blue and White Cafe.

"I only have one exam question, you are a mother, her daughter was ten years old with her legs ruined, she was closed for three years and did not want to go out of the room, one day, the daughter suddenly said that she wanted to learn to dance, and you agreed. ”

"Please show the state from the time you hear your daughter's request to the time you agree. ”

The woman sitting opposite Lin Qingcha immediately showed the appearance of covering her mouth and crying, and then forced herself to cry and nodded, "Okay." ”

Lin Qingcha pursed her lips, this is already the fifteenth, but none of them made her particularly satisfied, their performances were too superficial, and they didn't think about the meaning behind her question at all.

Am I being too demanding?

"You change your mood, smile and say try. ”

The woman was stunned for a moment, and after a few minutes, her face was full of ecstasy, and she hurriedly said, "Good!

"It's okay, go back and wait for the notice. ”

"Okay. ”

Lin Qingcha was very helpless, the people recommended for this role to come to the interview were almost finished, and the morning was about to end, and the remaining few didn't know if they would come or not.

She sat there for another half an hour, and when she got up and was about to leave, a middle-aged woman with some vicissitudes of life walked in quickly.

"Excuse me, is it an audition for the crew of "Dance"?" she looked at Lin Qingcha with an expectant look in her eyes.

Lin Qingcha, who had just gotten up, sat down again: "Yes." ”

"Sorry, I'm late, my name is Liu Huimin. ”

Lin Qingcha looked at her resume.

She has some impressions of this Liu Huimin's information, and she has paid special attention to it.

Liu Huimin is Chinese New Year's Eve five today, she used to be a primary school Chinese teacher, but now she is a special actor, and she has also played several roles with one or two lines.

Lin Qingcha nodded: "Well, so don't waste time, let's start directly." ”

She repeated the unified audition questions.

Unlike the previous fifteen people, Liu Huimin did not perform immediately, but asked Lin Qingcha a few questions first: "Is there a male host in this family?"

"Nope. ”

"What is the family situation of the mother and daughter?"

"Originally well-off, after her daughter's accident, all her savings for medical treatment have been spent, and her mother's salary barely supports the lives of the two. ”

"Is it possible for my daughter's legs to stand up again?"

"Probably not at all. ”

Liu Huimin was silent for more than ten seconds, and then nodded: "I understand." ”

Her eyes looked at Lin Qingcha, with a faint smile on her face, and then the smile disappeared in an instant, her lips trembled a little, her expression was a little incredulous, her eyes cautiously glanced at Lin Qingcha's legs, but quickly retracted her gaze, gritted her teeth and seemed to have made up her mind: "Okay, Mom will find you a teacher!"

"Director, I'm done. ”

Lin Qingcha tapped his chin with his finger, and he couldn't tell whether he was satisfied or dissatisfied on his face, but just asked a question:

"Why did you start laughing?"

"Being a mother is strong, especially in such a family that relies on her mother. She loves her daughter very much, and in the face of her autistic daughter, who has suffered so much, not only will she not show her vulnerability in front of her, but she will also try to bring her out of her autistic state, so I guess she is gentle and smiling. Liu Huimin was a little unconfident in saying what she thought.

Lin Qingcha smiled: "Then how did you design it later?"

This smile made Liu Huimin see the hope of hiring, and she spoke more confidently: "For three years, my mother tried various ways to get her daughter out of the room, but it didn't work, maybe she had accumulated a lot of disappointment in her heart, but suddenly, her daughter proposed to learn to dance, and the hope came unexpectedly, so she was a little incredulous." ”

But then, she thought of her daughter's legs, unable to stand, she hesitated, afraid that her daughter would suffer a greater setback, and the situation at home might not be able to support her to learn dance, but when she thought that her daughter was finally willing to go out of the room, she felt that there was a glimmer of hope that could not be let go, so she finally agreed. ”

"Director, am I right?"

Lin Qingcha said: "As long as everything is established, it is right." ”

She breathed a sigh of relief and held out her hand: "You've been hired." ”

Liu Huimin shook it a little excitedly: "Thank you, thank you director!"

The two signed a contract, the three main actors, and two have already been decided.

Audition for the little actor in the afternoon.

Lin Qingcha found a random place to have lunch, at this time, group performances dressed in various dynasties could be seen everywhere in the film and television base, hurriedly walking through, leaving after packing takeout, and not stopping in the store.

They may be running errands for the crew, or they may have no boxed lunches when it is their turn, so they can only rush out to pack them.

Some of these people may have been there for years and couldn't get a decent role, but they still hold on.

However, the reality is cruel.

If you have been playing all kinds of scenes with no lines or only a few lines for several years, and the roles are not counted, then the familiar director will gradually feel that you can only play these, because you have been characterized.

Lin Qingcha shook his head, each with their own fate.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, still in the blue and white café, the little actors auditioned.

The young actors will be brought by their respective guardians.

There were only three of them, a little after two o'clock, and they all arrived.

Teaching a play to a young actor is different from an adult actor.

The young actor's thinking and world view are not mature enough, if some gloomy scenes, the little actor is too deep into the play, it may have an impact on the psychology of the young actor, and the guardian will make trouble.

Therefore, for some gloomy emotions, the director can't let the little actor substitute the real situation, but will choose a relatively mild situation that can be replaced by the little actor to play.

There are also some emotionally delicate scenes that may be difficult for young actors to understand, and they also need to find other ways to make them perform.

It is a challenge to train young actors to act.

Today, the scene she needs the little actor to try is the change that happens when she sees the perfect dance of a young girl who has lost her legs and has been in a dark room for three years.

Lin Qingcha sent the audition question down, and the first time, she didn't give any explanation.

She wanted to see first, the understanding and spirituality of these little actors themselves.

The little girl who was the first little actor to try out for the play, eleven years old, compared with her peers, her appearance is undoubtedly very delicate and cute.

But her autism is more like the grievances of a child who hasn't gotten sugar.

But after the first little girl performed, the next two little girls seemed to get a template, learning the same, no different from the first performance, just a different degree of grievance.

Lin Qingcha was not particularly disappointed, she had expected this kind of result.

She looked at the resumes of the three young actors, and they have never been exposed to this type of movie, they have all filmed some idol dramas and costume dramas before, and some important female characters were innocent or cute when they were young.

Let's try again, I hope I can.

Lin Qingcha thought so.
