"Then drink a bottle!"

The assistant director was relieved and took two bottles of Mountain City Beer...

Why rest assured?

Save money, of course!

I don't know how expensive tadpoles are when I'm young!

If you really control a crew, you will know how much money it costs to make a movie.

Crew equipment, cameras, slides, radio equipment, lighting equipment, etc., all of which cost money, personnel expenses, and three meals a day for the staff, cost money like water.

This is still the on-site producer Zhou Lin asked about everything, which suppressed the flow of funds and barely maintained it.

Let's put it this way, in the industry of mixed movies, if you can't find a knowledgeable leader, you won't know how to die if you are pitted to death.

Director Chen Kexin filmed "Martial Arts", the investor didn't know how to do it, and was directly pitted to death, a work that spent hundreds of millions of investments, stunned to shoot the effect of the eighties of the last century, it is said that when the crew reported the account, a pair of cloth shoes and a straw hat dared to report thousands of yuan.

The heyday of the gas culture directly stopped making movies...

Lu Xiaoran and Hou Shu each drank a bottle of beer and started the show directly...

There are no restrictive shots, just the two of them are lying together, and Lu Xiaoran is still wearing underwear.

Then came the scene of being beaten...

Xie Xiaomeng's role is to be injured, before taking this scene, Lu Xiaoran was mentally prepared!

was pressed in the toilet, beaten by Brother Dao and Heipi in turn...

If you want to make an effect, you have to really fight, and many times, you just can't control the force...

If Xie Xiaomeng is not injured, there is no need for him to appear in it!

He came to take on such an obligation!

Then you say, can't you perform?

It's too difficult, Lu Xiaoran hasn't reached this realm yet...

He had to experience it in order to give a real reaction, including to the actors!

This is also the core of Stanley's acting theory, and Lu Xiaoran was taught by Spice in acting, so I didn't think there was any problem!

Speaking of which, in fact, which of the two is more high-end, real performance or profound acting skills?

I can't tell!

At the beginning, when Lawrence Oliver and Dustin Hoffman collaborated on "Marathon Man", Hoffman's character had a scene where he didn't sleep for a few days, and Hoffman decided to start staying up late in order to better express the character's decadent appearance after not sleeping for a long time.

Lawrence Oliver was the great master of Expressionism, and Dustin Hoffman was the representative of the Experientialism, so this story is often used by the Expressionists to mock the Experientialists.

Lawrence Oliver is thirty years older than Dustin Hoffman...

Thirty years of life experience, thirty years of life experience, for performers, the so-called 'experience', the so-called 'performance', in fact, there is no essential difference, when you have gone through the world, after reading a thousand sails, you no longer need to draw a clear line between these two seemingly distinct schools, the two have long been integrated!

In essence, the performance is an observation of life, and the son said in the river: "The deceased is like this", what does not change is time, and what changes is the mood of ups and downs in time!

It's a pity that Lu Xiaoran lacks this kind of life experience...

Therefore, at the beginning of the test shooting, Lu Xiaoran's performance was always a little worse.

Just just move seriously, stuffing your head into the toilet, punching and kicking, and even being held down by Brother Dao to hit the wall with your head, these are all real things that happen...

......

Lu Xiaoran is studying...

He found that Ning Hao was very good at filming group scenes!

Group drama is recognized as the most difficult to shoot in the film industry, and if the group drama is not filmed well, "Taiping Wheel" can be made into "Little Sampan"; if the group drama is well filmed, all the movies like Lao Mouzi can be shot magnificently regardless of the subject matter; there are many masters of group drama in the world, and the most famous one in Asia is Akira Kurosawa, and there are even more outside Asia.

Of course, Ning Hao is not as good as these masters, but he can use contrasting irony to promote the distinctness of the characters' characteristics, and simple opposing conflicts to shape the characters...

His contrasts are tasteful.

For example, Bao Shihong, San Bao and the three thieves are neighbors in the hotel, where the hotel is an invisible intersection of space, but the protagonists of these two clues are not aware of it!

Through such a scene setting, these interesting scenes are presented in front of the audience: Brother Lao Dao paints a map of the temple on the wall, and studies in detail the plan of the researcher to steal the jadeite, while Bao Shihong and San Bao are also nailing the map to the wall on the other side of the wall, such a scene not only looks unbearable, but also hangs the audience's heart at all times.

Of course, this is not his original, Guy Ritchie also set it up in "Robbery and Kidnapping"!

Ning Hao is really imitating Guy Ritchie, including the way the camera is switched...

And he attaches great importance to the actors themselves, rather than the limited script!

That is, he is happy to discuss his lines with the actors on the spot, and if he thinks any sentence is inappropriate, he will stop to discuss with the actors...

Of course, he also has a good temper!

Most of the time, it is because of the negligence of the producer or the on-site staff, for example, the production team did not prepare trauma medicine, and the staff made small mistakes...

It's rare to get angry because of the actors!

I probably know that it's not fun to compete with actors...

What happens when the director goes berserk on the set and walks away?

How can it be?

Will be back eventually!

It is said that when director Nolan first arrived in Hollywood, he was furious about a live shooting, and then found that no one cared about him, so he had to secretly run back to the scene to continue filming...

It takes patience and it takes to establish one's own authority...

You can't let the actors be afraid of you, but you have to make everyone listen to you!

First of all, it is difficult to be a human being!

What's even more difficult is that you have to maintain strong energy - Director Ning Hao is definitely the one who sleeps the latest and wakes up the earliest in the crew...

Lu Xiaoran is communicating with huskies:

"So, a good script and a good story are just the beginning of a movie. Whether it is a good movie or not, it is the director's ability that plays a decisive role. ”

"Yes, it's like a storyteller. In the same story, people with a low level say that they will be full of drowsiness, and people with a high level will say that they will be full of applause. ”

“... Do you still think that the director's skills are not important?"

In a film, the director's aesthetic is particularly important, he decides all the visual elements, such as the choice of shots, camera angles, lighting, the use of filters, optical effects, composition, camera movement, and editing.

Sometimes, the director also needs to decide on the costumes, the set, and the exterior.

And the most important point - directing the actors.

This requires the actor's "complete relaxation", which relies on the actor's complete trust in the director.

Once the actor doubts the director's arrangement, or thinks that the character's motives and reactions are wrong, it will inevitably fail to bring a good performance.

It's hard...

"But I think Ning Hao is a little bit bad!"

"Yo, what's not good enough?"

"He's too dependent on natural light!"

“... But this movie is still realistic, and there's nothing wrong with natural light... You know how light affects a movie?"

Lu Xiaoran was a little surprised, he really didn't expect the husky to notice the light problem...

"Don't get me wrong, I just found out that there are no professional lighting engineers in the crew, and they are all part-time in the camera crew..."
