Because he was going to get into the voice acting work next, Lan Li called Seth Rogan last night to ask about the relevant experience.

As one of the industry's most acclaimed comedians, Seth has a wealth of voice acting experience, such as "Aliens", "Shrek", "The Adventures of Horton", "The Simpsons", "Family Guy", "Underworld Authority", and many more, he knows how to use his voice to create the effect he wants, and he also knows the difference between live-action and animated works. Undoubtedly, he is the most suitable one to give advice among all Lan Li's friends.

Seth was more than willing to help, and he joked in a serious way, "I never knew that I would have the opportunity to help Lan Li with questions about acting." Rest assured, I won't miss out on this opportunity, and I'm already thinking about how I should show off to James Franco and Jonah Hill. ”

But Lan Li strongly suspects that Seth is deliberately playing tricks on him.

"Exaggerate as much as possible", "Show the texture of a child", "The tone can be naïve and silly, and make yourself silly"...... What kind of advice is this? It always sounds strange, but between the words, Seth seriously shared some details, "try not to be too full of words", "you can put your emotions to exaggerate a little more", "your expression is as relaxed as possible, you can try to imitate the expressions of animated characters"...... These suggestions are yet very reasonable, and they complement the style of animated films, and seem to be sincere suggestions.

In response to Seth's suggestion, Lan Li said, "Are you sure it's not such a rare opportunity to play pranks, so you won't miss it easily?"

"Hey, Lan Li, even though I'm a comedian, even though I'm joking every day, even though I'm joking right now, you can't just twist my expertise, you know, I'm very, very serious!" Seth's tone was very serious, but the more serious it was, the more suspicious it became.

"Your friend did it on purpose, right?" replied Williams.

Lan Li also laughed happily.

Williams continued, "It's okay, let's just try it right now, and you'll see, it's not as difficult as you think, and you'll find the feeling in no time." ”

"Hey, Chris, aren't you going to introduce me?" Seeing that Williams was about to escort Lan Li into the recording studio, there were many jumps in the middle, and Don-Hall, who had been standing since Williams and Lan Li entered the room, finally couldn't hold back anymore and took the initiative to interject.

Williams paused in his gesture of invitation before reacting, "Oh God, God! I completely forgot about it." Each of us knows you, but you don't necessarily know each of us. I just took it for granted that you're part of our crew, you know, we've been friends in the anime world for almost a year, we're old friends. ”

It is estimated that most people have no way to understand such a strange expression, but Lan Li understands it, and can't help but smile.

"You're Chris Williams, so you're Don Hall. Lan Li still maintained his politeness and took the initiative to say hello, "It's nice to meet you, I'm Lan Li-Hall, Xiao Hong's projection in the real world, I think, we should already be old friends." ”

Don Hall, another director of "Super Marines", and Chris Williams have been friends and partners for more than 15 years. He had co-written the screenplays for "Transforming the King" and "The Legend of the Bear" with Williams, and later directed "Winnie the Pooh", which was also his second directorship.

Lan Li's way of introducing himself made Williams applaud vigorously like a seal, expressing his joy all over his body, turning his head to look at his partner, raising his chin triumphantly, and babbling.

"Look, look, you used to think that Lan Li Qinggao was not easy to get along with, but now that you have really met, do you know that the rumors from the outside world are not credible? I think that Lan Li is even more unassuming than expected, and if I achieve the current results like Lan Li, I will have to show off my strength. ”

What is the ...... I don't know whether it's belittled or praised, but it just makes people laugh and cry.

Don Hall, who was standing diagonally in front of him, had a slightly embarrassed expression because Williams had also exposed all the "bad words" behind him, and now in front of the parties, he couldn't help scratching his head, "I'm sorry, he is this character, if he has any thoughts in his head, he will say it directly, and go straight to it." ”

"Did I say the wrong thing? That's all true!" Before Lan Li could interject, Williams said with a natural expression, and then turned his head to look at Lan Li, "Someone joked before that you joined this work because of his relationship, and his surname has a relationship with your family. People were just joking, but he took it seriously, and then explained it seriously, and kept emphasizing that these words should not be said casually. I thought he was too serious. ”

Don Hall.

Blue Rite Hall.

The surnames of the two people are exactly the same.

In the Western system of surname and name culture, surnames are more meaningful, many surnames are family inheritance, those hereditary nobles inherit from the glory and light of the surname, the surname "Hall" has a long history in the British Isles, and it is also the proudest part of George Hall.

Nonetheless, as the European continent entered the North American continent, many down-and-out aristocrats or side branches of the nobility came to this new continent to explore the new world, and many surnames gradually became popular, and at the same time, they also lost their so-called historical heritage and family glory, and created a new history here.

Therefore, although it is also Hall, there should be little connection between the two sides. As Williams said, those jokes are just jokes, who made the light of the blue ceremony really too bright?

Williams's straightforwardness and calmness made Lan Li smile slightly, and he finally understood why, with Williams's talent and ability, he was never able to become a department leader, or even be promoted, and could only be regarded as a part of the entire huge team.

However, as far as Lan Li is concerned, he doesn't mind Williams's character, and he won't feel offended, "Who knows, maybe we are indeed distant relatives, but we don't know for the time being." I remember that there was now an emerging genetic test that could find distant family members that I simply could not have imagined. ”

Don Hall was about to open his mouth to explain worriedly, but he didn't expect that Lan Li's answer opened up the situation in an ingenious way, and the atmosphere suddenly became relaxed, he couldn't help but be slightly stunned, and then he smiled, as if he was laughing at himself for thinking too much

There is no way, now Lan Li is too famous, even after tea and dinner in Hollywood, they always mention this name, and just like ordinary people, Lan Li is also a very distant and high-ranking actor for them. More or less mysterious.

Sure enough, Hollywood's first rule is: rumors are never true, only entertaining.

"Don Hall. He directly ignored Williams's teasing, stretched out his right hand towards Lan Li, and introduced himself.

Lan Li shook the other party's right hand, "It's a pleasure to meet you, it's my honor to be a part of this work." Politely expressing a polite gesture to Williams and Don Hall, Lan Li's different gestures can be seen in his reception, "Shouldn't we start reading the script first, so that I can understand the characters and the context of the story?"

Although I watched the work "Super Marines" in my last life, and Lan Li also liked it quite a lot, but the lines and stories have been almost forgotten, and now for dubbing, you still need to start from scratch.

Today's original plan was to read the script! Instead of dubbing work! Therefore, Lan Li got off the plane and came here directly instead of going home: he thought that he would just relax and read the script, and it would not take much physical strength and energy. But now, things seem to be going a little off track.

Williams preemptively said, "Don't worry, don't worry, take it easy, and follow the feeling, that's fine, you don't need to prepare too much." ”

This time, Don Hall also agreed, "You can find the feeling first, and the script reading can take your time." Our work is a little different from the crew, so try to relax as much as possible, as if you were in your own home, find the happiest memories of your previous childhood, and then get into the role, and that's it. ”

"Some people like to wear pajamas and go barefoot when they are dubbing, showing a relaxed state before going to bed. There's nothing wrong with that, we need the actors to relax. Williams added, "I've heard before that when Seth Rogan was voicing the donkey of 'Shrek', he also made his own simulated movements on all fours, mimicking the movements of the donkey the whole time, which is really realistic. ”

Lan Li opened his mouth slightly, and he couldn't help but laugh first, "What should I do, I regret it a little now?" These brainless words made Don Hall and Williams stunned, and Lan Li continued, "If I say that since I was a child, my current state is the most relaxed, do you believe it?"

The rules and constraints of hereditary aristocracy are far more terrible than imagined

Listening to Lan Li's words, Williams made up for Lan Li's limbs to imitate the appearance of a donkey, he blinked, and then laughed directly, "You better follow your own habits, don't pay attention to us, our suggestions are just auxiliaries." You can come at your own pace and style, we can all accept it, no problem!"

Lan Li chuckled directly, "Then let's give it a try." One thing I can be sure of is that it is obviously not that easy to become a good actor, and we should accept all the challenges. Perhaps, next time I can try to play a donkey. ”
