Chapter 18 Script Analysis
In fact, most newcomers don't have the right to choose scripts!
Most of them don't open for a year, and they last for a year...
It's good to have a script to find it, and the most important thing is to make money to fill your stomach, because not every actor can encounter a good opportunity and a good book when he debuts.
Don't those Hong Kong actors know how bad the script is in their hands?
Many times, I really have to rely on their experience to convince myself: there are only small actors in the world, there are no small roles, no matter what the play, you have to try your best to do your best, which is also a kind of training...
Everyone wants to have access to good directors, good scripts, and good roles, and only by working with excellent people can they have the strength to touch to a higher level!
In the four years of Nortel, Lu Xiaoran's dramas and sketches that Lu Xiaoran contacted and rehearsed are all proven to be good books!
"A Bowl of Clear Soup Noodles", "Thunderstorm", "The Minister of the Imperial Mission" and so on...
That's right, it's all realism!
It's really like what Jin Dong said: create in strict accordance with the style of realism.
After graduation, the dramas that find him in the market are all costume dramas...
I was a little confused at first, because you don't know how to act!
The performance may just have mastered some basic skills, some basic knowledge.
Fortunately, most of the time he is looking for him according to his appearance, that is, performing in his true colors, for example, his ancient costume is a weak scholar, and he has acted in five plays, basically all of which are of this type, and slowly, he has also figured out a little method.
In the first stage of a qualified actor, you have to watch more performances in order to be measured, where your level is, and where your most suitable field is.
Why did you run to audition for "Young Yang Jiajiang"?
If you see that this drama may explode!
First of all, the story is not bad - how bad can the story of the Yang family be be?
The production team is mature enough...
I just didn't expect it to be knocked out...
Now that it's time for "Struggle", the husky has already said that this show is very popular!
Then you can't make a mistake, and if you get knocked out again, it will be embarrassing...
……
The style of "Struggle" can be described in one word: poor!
It continues Wang Shuo's Beijing flavor.
Analyzing the script, an actor like Lu Xiaoran must fully understand the characters and the content of the plot, otherwise, it will be difficult for him to play...
The script provides the actors with the general direction to understand the background of the story and analyze the characters, like a textbook for students, and the background information is like extracurricular reading, and the two add up to find the key to unlock the character.
Especially when shooting, it is often impossible to shoot smoothly, and the emotional context of the character must be sorted out clearly, so that the state of the character can be accurately given.
There may be another group of directors who are not like this, and his own script is in a very ambiguous state...
Such a director needs particularly strong actors, anyway, Lu Xiaoran has not reached this realm...
Back to "Struggle", Huazi's character traits: righteousness, but also resentment towards reality...
In the whole script, the only 'struggle' is Huazi and Pighead, and Pighead also slept with Huazi's girlfriend Lulu...
Family line: Huazi is an ordinary background, Huazi's mother trains Huazi, why don't you look at Lu Tao, earn 20 million at once, you are classmates, why can't you do it?
Huazi replied directly: If you can get me two awesome dads like Lu Tao's mother, I can also make 20 million at once!
Career line: The family has no money and no good family background. After graduating from college, he opened a small barber shop, a billiard hall, and finally, he opened a Thai restaurant with others, and finally achieved a small success;
Friendship line: Xiang Nan and Lu Tao are his friends, he is very measured in friendship, even if he is not used to it, he is very tolerant;
Love line: first fell in love with Yang Xiaoyun at the same time as Xiang Nan, and then saw that Xiang Nan was so active, he gave up, and then met Lulu, who was slept by his business partner Pig Head, and met Chunxiao at the end of the day;
In terms of weight, Huazi is definitely one of the leading actors, the kind with a complete story line.
Lu Xiaoran's favorite line of Huazi is 'I'm actually quite confused, and I don't have any goals, so I've been drifting with the flow...'
Yes, young people have just graduated, what goals can they have?
Want to turn the world upside down?
Weigh yourself first!
Most people will have a period of confusion, lethargy, negative about things, no plan for everything, confused and helpless, want to work hard, but have no goal to work for.
It's like Lu Xiaoran, what do you say his goal is?
He didn't even know it himself!
Some people say that Mr. Save, and then talk about dreams!
Survival, his starting capital is already available, and three sets of shops are enough for a lifetime of food and clothing...
But he was still a little confused, and he didn't know what he was aiming for...
Red?
And then what?
Marry a long-legged man?
But if you think about it, it doesn't seem to be the case, but he doesn't know exactly what is going on...
This is the commonality between him and Huazi.
……
"It's finished?"
"Whose play? Director Corning... Got it!"
"I don't have time, I took the play directed by Zhao Baogang!"
"Hey, hey... I didn't expect that either!"
"Who? Director Liu Xiaoguang, you send me the script, I'll take a look at it first!"
Hanging up the phone, Lu Xiaoran was silent for a while...
It was Brother Bo's phone call just now, "Stone" was finished, and he was going to shoot Director Corning's "A Promise of a Thousand Golds", Director Corning is also one of Brother Bo's nobles...
After "Survival of Migrant Workers", I fell in love with Bo Ge and asked him to star in "A Promise of a Thousand Gold".
Director Corning's masterpiece is "The Day of Leaving **", a must-see movie for state-owned enterprises - the kind that you want to write about after reading...
It's a pity that Lu Xiaoran has no schedule and can't catch up with this drama.
Brother Bo also said a play by Liu Xiaoguang...
The auxiliary asked, "Who is Liu Xiaoguang?"
“… Director Forrest Gump!"
"Oh, bad movie director!"
"Can't say that... Forget it, what do you like!"
I want to defend Director Liu Xiaoguang, but unfortunately, I can't talk about it...
The language is very pale, and director Forrest Gump's drama evaluation is very low, "Strange Tales from the Ancient Mirror", Xie Tingfeng + Lin Xinru, word-of-mouth and box office lose...
"Listen to me, you first shoot "Struggle", finish filming "Struggle", and then go to Jiang Wei, you two will tinker with "Latent" together, you must get Yu Zecheng!"
"In the meantime... I'm not acting anymore?"
"Why are you doing so many bad shows?
“… I have to be in front of the audience, otherwise, it's easy to be forgotten!"
"Big brother, "Latent" is ready, you can eat it for a lifetime!"
“… Really?"
"Why am I lying to you?"
Lu Xiaoran was silent for a while, and then asked, "What if Zhang Yimou asks me to act?"
“… Get out!"
"I gotta send goodnight away!"
Lu Xiaoran squatted on the ground, petted the dog, and changed the topic by the way.
“… The crew won't let you bring dogs?"
"I don't have time to carry it all the time..."
"Isn't your mom retiring soon? or you can get an assistant..."
"Why am I so rich?"
"The assistant is more than just a dog!"
