I don't know if it was because I didn't worship God when I started the film, or if the first shot didn't go well was a small omen in itself, the filming process of "Master of Hypnosis" was much slower than Li Mo expected.

Although the location of the story is not clearly indicated in the movie, a large number of contents such as the scene and character environment show that the location of the story is definitely not in the imperial capital, so "Hypnosis Master" finally chose the filming location in the magic capital.

This is precisely the reason for most of the problems in the week leading up to the start-up: the behind-the-scenes team is not well prepared in all aspects.

Although other departments were busy for a while, because the people in charge were all experts in the industry, they quickly straightened out the work content that their modules needed to be responsible for. However, the props team has been unable to find a job for a long time.

When I estimated that the people of Fiber Optic Media got the script, they just felt that there were not many scenes in "Hypnosis Master", the space was small, and the workload of the props team was not large, and the "Thai Embarrassment" side could not be exhausted, so they didn't transfer much manpower here.

More than 70% of the scenes in the story of "Master of Hypnosis" are in Xu Ruining's cramped, dim, gloomy and retro psychotherapy room, where most of the interior furnishings and items are foreshadowing and dark lines embedded in the film, and the various props in the small room are fragmented and complex, and in the end, there are more than 1,000 various props and details.

This is simply the life of the props team......

As a result, when it came to the start of shooting, the props team actually asked Li Mo to take the command, and then they knew how to do a good job of their own modules under such requirements.

In the end, I really had no choice but to draw all the things in the entire room on a probe map similar to that used in archaeological work, and use coordinates to mark all the things that need attention.

Li Mo has to direct the shooting until the early hours of the morning every day, and then convene all departments of the behind-the-scenes team to confirm the work plan for the next day, go home and sleep for a few hours, eat something and go to the crew again to prepare for the next day's shooting......

After a week, Li Mo almost couldn't figure out what time the words "yesterday, today, and tomorrow" were talking about......

Fortunately, the person in charge of the props team finally saw the situation clearly, and knew that the one-week time limit was the last run-in time for Li Mo to give his team, and after completing the work, he privately educated his subordinates, so he slowly kept up with the rhythm of other departments of the crew.

After some rectification, the crew is running much better than at the beginning.

It was only at this time that Li Mo was able to concentrate on shifting his attention to the actors' performances.

Although Lei Jiayin and Wan Qian's acting skills will be recognized in the future, and the two also showed enough professionalism during the audition, Li Mo still decided to find an experienced veteran actor to play the role of 'Professor Fang'.

Playing this role is Mr. Lu Zhong.

Although this is not famous, he is a veteran actor in the imperial capital, and his drama acting career has lasted for 27 years, and the characters he has created have a great age span, especially good at playing older female roles.

Although Professor Fang does not appear much in "Master of Hypnosis", he is an important role throughout the film, behind the continuous reversal of the identities of Xu Ruining and Ren Xiaoyan, there is always her shadow looming, so if this role is not convincing, the 'reversal' throughout the film may completely collapse.

Today's filming is the scene when Professor Fang and Xu Ruining first met at the beginning of the film, although this clip is not long in the finished film, but it is to show the audience Xu Ruining's conceited, poisonous tongue, and like to challenge character characteristics, and set the tone for his behavior in the film.

This is also Lei Jiayin's first highlight in the film.

“Action!” Shooting begins!

"You spoke very well just now, but you are still in the same bad temper as when you were in school, and your speech is even worse. ”

Although he has graduated for many years, in the eyes of Professor Fang, Xu Ruining is still the conceited student of the year.

When he said this line, Lu Zhong's eyes were slowly doting, like looking at a disobedient child......

"Professor Fang, you didn't come here today to tell me this, did you?" Lei Jiayin continued with a smile on his face......

"Click! Brother Jiayin, there is something wrong with your expression. ”

Li Mo could see that Lei Jiayin was a little affected by Lu Zhong's age and qualifications.

is also playing against actors older than himself, Lei Jiayin can show Xu Ruining's confidence and ability to control the situation in front of unknown old actors, but in front of Lu Zhong, he is too humble.

Different directors have different training methods for the way actors perform.

Although Li Mo finally had the opportunity to direct movies independently in his previous life, for most of the previous time, he was working in various positions behind the scenes, and even if he appeared as an actor, most of them were just roles;

After traveling to this time and space, although he got all the systematic knowledge of acting skills in his memory, 'Predecessor Li Mo' was originally a little fresh meat that ate youth, and most of the scenes he received only needed to be handsome and cool, and it was impossible to have time to polish his acting skills;

So if you want to teach others how to perform, Li Mo really doesn't have that ability.

But it doesn't matter, who said that a director needs to be able to act?

…… I don't know how to teach you how to reach your goals, but I know exactly what you want to achieve!

Li Mo stood up from behind the monitor and walked to Lei Jiayin's side, "Brother Jiayin, your performance just now was too low-key and too humble. ”

"But when I look at the setting in the script, Professor Fang is Xu Ruining's teacher, and Xu Ruining has always respected her. ”

"Respect is true, but conceit, pride, these characters engraved in his bones, will not be restrained because of respect for teachers. ”

"But in front of a respectful teacher, showing these things, will it make people think that he is disrespectful to the teacher and a little hypocritical?"

"Don't worry, didn't Professor Fang say the previous line, you are still the same as back then, the key is in this 'the same as back then', which shows that Xu Ruining's character traits have not changed over the years, and Professor Fang has also become accustomed to his characteristics. ”

Speaking of this, Li Mo pointed to Teacher Lu Zhong, who was sitting and resting on the side, "Brother Jiayin, did you notice Teacher Lu Zhong's expression when he read the lines just now?"

Lei Jiayin lowered his head and thought about it, a little unsure, "Is it a bit of the feeling that the elders in the family look at the younger generations?"

"That's right," Li Mo nodded, "That's how it feels." Just think about how a person with Xu Ruining's personality will deal with this situation. ”

"Attention departments, in five minutes, ready to start!"

Seeing that Lei Jiayin had understood what he meant, Li Mo shouted loudly, returned to his position, and watched the various departments start their own work.

Five minutes later......

"Prepare all departments, Action!"
