264 Acting Theory Debate
On the set, in the jelly shop.
Whether it was dozens of group performances or the actors who came to watch, no one spoke.
Everyone stared at Wei Xun, thinking back to the impactful performance just now, and still felt deeply shocked.
A few days ago in Baixiang Mountain, when Wei Xun and Shi Fan were playing against each other, the two actors did not have a direct dramatic process, and the rhythm of the rivalry was very flat.
At that time, everyone felt that Wei Xun undoubtedly had acting skills, but compared with Shi Fan, he must be a little worse.
A director is the core figure of the overall power in the crew.
When there are too many big names in the crew, and the director does not have the ability to absolutely suppress the big names, it is easy to have some small problems.
For example, everyone will unconsciously talk about the director behind their backs, and there are more or less subtle judgments.
However, after seeing Wei Xun's explosive 'self-caesarean' scene just now, presumably these judgments should change in nature.
The interpretation is so shocking that it makes people's scalp tingle, and the performance strength and empathy rendering are amazingly strong.
Even ordinary people who don't know anything about acting can feel the shock of acting.
is worthy of being a great director, a person who often sits behind the camera and has a general view of the power, and as soon as he makes a move, he directly shocks the audience.
It's no wonder that he was dissatisfied with the performances of Yi Heng and Jiang Kun just now.
The contrast between the before and after is too strong, and it is indisputably directly crushed.
After Wei Xun finished the performance, he stood silently for a while, and then took the towel handed over by the venue attendant and wiped the tears on his face and the sweat on his forehead.
Because the emotional outburst just now was too intense, he also needed time to slow down now.
Yi Heng reluctantly settled down, opened a bottle of white water and handed it to Wei Xun with a very eye-catching look, and said, "Director Wei, moisten your throat." ”
Wei Xun let out an 'um' sound, took a sip of the water, and asked, "Do you understand?"
"Look...... See. Yi Heng hesitated for a moment when he heard this, and said honestly: "But I can't play the effect of directing you." ”
When I was a student, there was always a group of people in the class, not bad students, nor top students.
They are more than less than the upper and lower than the bottom, they are not slippery, and they have a bit of a talent for learning, but they are not talented players, so the results are destined to be decent.
Yi Heng is also like this in the entertainment industry.
Maybe he can be okay in the current generation of actors, but when he really comes into contact with complex roles and faces stronger opponents, he can't do it.
You can't say he doesn't work hard.
But a lot of times, it's not like you can get something done with hard work.
"Jiang Kun, you come over too. ”
Hearing Yi Heng say this, Wei Xun thought about it, called Jiang Kun over, and then said, "Actually, this scene is not difficult. The tension between the two of you can't be pulled out, and I am skeptical about the plot and characters, so I stood behind the camera and could see very intuitively that the two of you were acting, and you were acting very fake. ”
If it was just now, Jiang Kun and Yi Heng would definitely have difficulty understanding this passage.
Because the plot itself is absurd and fake, how to make the characters 'real'.
But after watching Wei Xun's performance, they understand that it can be done.
It's one thing to understand it, it's another thing to play it yourself.
"Director Wei, when I played against you just now, the most intuitive feeling I had was that it was very real. ”
Seeing that Wei Xun was not as angry as he was just now, Jiang Kun pulled out a smile, made a gesture of asking for advice, and asked seriously: "You are the sixth son who can cut his stomach by himself for a bowl of cold noodles, this sense of reality even makes me feel that you are not acting, but the role itself, how did this happen?"
The so-called acting is actually acting.
Very few actors are able to detach themselves from the 'acting' part and thus become the character itself.
On Earth, there are three factions that correspond to or summarize the performances of the actors.
Expressionism.
Experiential.
Methodist.
Performing artists have been arguing for years because of these three factions.
But in this parallel world, there doesn't seem to be a similar school of theory, and when actors act, they all rely on their own talent or feeling.
After hearing Jiang Kun ask this question, not only Yi Heng's face became more serious, but even Shi Fan, Jiang Duzhou, Zhong Xianxian and others came over to hear what Wei Xun had to say.
Because of his performance just now, the analysis or interpretation of the role of Liuzi is too deep.
"First of all, you have to know that "Let the Bullets Fly" is an absurd story, but no matter how absurd and bizarre the story is, it has its own logical chain. For example, in order to prove that he only ate a bowl of cold noodles, Liuzi decided to disembowel. In order to frame the sixth son, Hu Wan has been forcing him to disembowel. My advice is, if you guys can't fit into the story, fit in the characters. ”
Wei Xun said: "Turn yourself into the character itself, try to get into the character, and then show the emotions of the character. In other words, it's not about who is like whom, it's about who is who. ”
Jiang Kun and Yi Heng didn't seem to understand.
As for the group performers who came around and wanted to listen to a few words, they were all at a loss.
Everyone knows every word that Director Wei said, but when they are connected, they can't understand it at all.
But in fact, what Wei Xun said is the core performance argument of the experiential school.
In silence, Shi Fan frowned and asked: "An actor has to play too many roles, each role is different and not the same, how can you play who is who." ”
Wei Xun turned around, only to find that he didn't know when it started, and everyone on the set was around him, including Shi Fan, Zhong Xianxian and others.
If you encounter difficulties in shooting, why not pause and think about it, which is more conducive to the next shooting.
So Wei Xun was not in a hurry, he put down the towel and water in his hand, and said with a smile: "Brother Shi Fan, when you perform, how do you present the role you play?"
"Understand the character's thoughts and motivations, and identify with him from my point of view. ”
Shi Fan thought for a while and said: "Then through the external expression, find some points that can highlight the characteristics of the character, or micro-expressions, or label-style actions, expand the special points of the character, strengthen the audience's cognition of the character, and strive to present them with the most realistic character image." ”
This answer is outlined, concise and straightforward, and many actors around him understand it.
is worthy of being a Grand Slam actor, and his ability is not false.
Wei Xun heard the words and asked: "Then let me ask you a question, do you think the role you played, such as Ma Bond, is it real or fake?"
Shi Fan hesitated for a moment and replied, "Fake." ”
Wei Xun asked: "In your perception, if you think that Ma Bond is fake, then how do you observe or magnify his personal characteristics and then present this character?
Shi Fan was speechless for a while.
He really never thought about it.
"So now, let's think differently, I need you to take Ma Bond as real. ”
Seeing that Shi Fan didn't say anything, Wei Xun smiled: "You can't simply use your own body and voice to perform and identify with this role." It's about investing your thoughts, hearts, and feelings to the fullest extent to become the character. An indifferent, unenthusiastic bystander has no way to thoroughly dissect a character in depth. ”
Shi Fan shook his head: "I admit that what you said is theoretically feasible, but it can't be done at all. ”
"No, it's not just theoretical, it's real. ”
Wei Xun stretched out his hand with a smile, put his arm on Yi Heng's shoulder, then looked at Shi Fan, and said with a smile: "One day, I will teach him tiao to show you, just use the method I just said, bet or not?"
Shi Fan also smiled: "What are you betting on?"
"Let's have a meal. ”
Wei Xun casually said a condition, then looked at Yi Heng who was dazed, and said with a smile: "Dude, on the next day, you belong to me." ”
