Chapter 218: It's Wrong to Be Handsome!(1/2)
Xu An shouted: "Card." ”
Chen Minhao asked Wang Aiying in surprise: "Teacher Wang, are you really acting for the first time?"
Wang Aiying smiled shyly and said, "Yes, the first time, I didn't know how I acted." ”
When Chen Minhao was filming "And Dilian", director Song Yao once said, "In the actor industry, you are not a talented player. When filming "The Founding of the People's Republic of China", Xingxi also said: "You have limited talent, and you are not a natural actor." The word "talent" is a mysterious thing for Chen Minhao, he once pondered that he could be the first in the art examination of Beiying through hard work, and his talent should not be bad.
As for other people's denials, Chen Minhao never took them to heart. He is not a person who needs to rely on the affirmation of others to go on. If he needed to rely on the affirmation of others to go on, then he would definitely not be admitted to Kyoto University as an orphan in his previous life.
But after he and Wang Aiying finished playing each other today, he finally knew how the word "talent" was written in the actor industry. What's even more annoying is that this talented person is strong and doesn't know it.
Chen Minhao took a deep breath, calmed down, and said, "Teacher Wang, I think you are acting very well, can you play with me a few more times?" ”
Before Wang Aiying could speak, Xu An shouted towards Chen Minhao: "Xiao Chen, come over first." ”
Xu An got up, let go of the seat under the director's monitor, and said: "Xiao Chen, you sit down and take a look at your performance, like Wang Aiying's performance is natural, simply summarized in one word is 'true', you carefully look at her facial features, expression, and movements, although in the last shot, she didn't say a word, but she conveyed a lot of emotions."
When you turn your head and see that the child is gone, there is no more of her in the script, but she runs out from behind the counter without a sound and joins you to see where the child has gone. Although there is no emphasis in the script that she needs to do this, when she does, she will act very realistically, as if she is living in that scene."
Xu An paused and added meaningfully: "Xiao Chen, but you watch your performance, you performed the stunned when you turned your head and couldn't see the child, I believe the audience can also feel your stunned, but you acted very fakely, and the audience knows that you are acting." In fact, this is just a MV, this kind of performance is completely reasonable, but Xiao Chen, you have to remember one sentence, '
The actor fools the director, the director fools the work, and when the final work is launched, the audience will fool you and tease you. As an actor, you should always be in awe of your work. ”
Chen Minhao couldn't help but smile because he remembered the mantra of his high school math teacher in his previous life: "In class, you fool the teacher and don't listen carefully; When it's time for the exam, the test questions will fool you and tease you!"
The math teacher in the previous life and the figure of Xu An in front of him gradually overlapped, both of them were people who had dedicated their lives to their careers, Chen Minhao asked seriously: "Actually, I have similar feelings when I watch my own performance, what should I do to make the audience feel that I am acting really?"
Xu An smiled and said: "As an actor, delivering the plot is only the most basic job. Xiao Chen, if you can only stay in accordance with the requirements of the director and the script, and perform the plot that needs to be performed, then you can only spin on the small screen for the rest of your life, and your ceiling is already there. It's hard to get into the film industry, or to be the main character in a movie. ”
Chen Minhao asked puzzledly: "But isn't the role of an actor to bring the script to life and to play the story clearly?"
Xu An laughed contemptuously and said: "This is just a small screen game, in fact, when filming a TV series, actors are like chess pieces used by the director to tell stories, and the top actors on the big screen, their performances are more important to convey emotions." Emotions are abstract, but a good actor can make the audience empathize and put the audience in their role.
If your performance can't be natural, then you have to deliberately work in that direction and try to perform a natural feeling. ”
Xingxi, who was on the side, also nodded frequently, and said to Chen Minhao: "Director Xu's words are from a high position, you should think about it." In the future, even if you enter the North Shadow, no one may be able to give you such guidance in the general direction. “
Chen Minhao was in a trance, and felt the long-standing resentment caused by Xingxi not choosing Chinese drama, but choosing Beiying.
Xu An patted Chen Minhao on the shoulder and said: "Don't put too much pressure on yourself, the more pressure you have, the worse you will be, I hope you can put all your energy into thinking about how to act." You go to the side and think about it first, we'll come back in 30 minutes. “
Thirty minutes later, the field attendant shouted, "Race 17, the second start." ”
In 30 seconds, Director Xu An shouted: "Card." Xiao Chen, come over here. “
Xu An said with a smile: "Yesterday, Mr. Xing, I told me that you belong to the kind of actor in the crew who can quickly adjust yourself, I was a little skeptical at first, but now I see that your scene is much better than the last one." “
Hearing Xu Ande's praise, Chen Minhao's heart did not fluctuate in the slightest, but he was silently looking forward to it, and there should be no "but".
"However, I don't think it's good enough. Because you are relatively good-looking, when the audience sees your face, their first reaction is: 'This is Chen Minhao', and their emotions make it difficult for them to substitute for the role you play. “
Chen Minhao subconsciously asked, "Is it still a mistake to be handsome?"
Xu An nodded seriously and said, "In a sense, being handsome is a mistake. Being an actor is the same as being a spy agent, because being particularly good-looking will leave a deep impression on people, which will cause a bottleneck in your career. Therefore, you need to have more acting skills than an actor with a mediocre appearance in order to put the audience into the role. ”
Chen Minhao heard this for the first time, and he subconsciously asked: "But I see that the actor and the actress are good-looking." ”
Xu An showed a smile that understood the world: "Because there is no shortage of people with good looks and good acting skills in this world, and it is difficult for people with mediocre appearance to get the role of the protagonist, then the actor and actress have nothing to talk about." ”
In the MV shooting crew of "Father", the number of group performers is small, but each group performer feels that his heart is poked and poked by Xu An with a silver needle.
It really hurts!
Xu An patted his shoulder again and said, "Give you another 30 minutes, I'm very much looking forward to what kind of answer you can give me after 30 minutes." ”
Just like the high school homeroom teacher talking to his classmates, after Mr. Xu asked the "junior student Chen" to leave, he called the "top student" into the office.
Xu An asked with a smile: "Xiao Wang, you acted well, have you really never acted in the past?"
Wang Aiying smiled and waved her hand and said, "No." “
Xu An's smile became even warmer: "Xiao Wang, you acted really well just now, I can see that you are quite talented, I have a new project to start at the end of this year, and there is a role in it, although there are not many scenes, only about 3 minutes of footage, but I think it is quite suitable for your temperament and appearance"
Wang Aiying asked, "Where are you shooting? ”
"Filmed in Shudi. About one month. It's good if you join the group at the end of December. ”
Wang Aiying shook her head when she heard it, and said, "That's not good, our family Lao Xing can't do without me." ”
Xing Xi immediately planned Wang Aiyan's words and said, "If such a big director as Xu An invites you, you will go." Don't you often ask me about my work on the crew? ”
Wang Aiying said with a smile: "But after I went, no one cooked for you." ”
"It's okay, I'll be with you in Shu when the time comes. ”
…….
Chen Minhao silently picked up his little Mazha, ran to the other side of the crew and sat down, thinking about how to act tomorrow. Originally, Director Xu's invitation to Wang Aiying made him a little envious, jealous and hateful. Unexpectedly, after his career was hit, he would be stuffed with a mouthful of dog food.
Chen Minhao suddenly had an indescribable confidence in the next performance: jealousy makes me ugly, I become ugly, and I become stronger!
