Rooney in front of her, with neat short hair, neat facial features outline a touch of alienation and coldness, messy hair sticky to the sideburns because of sweat, a touch of embarrassment faintly reveals a trace of weakness, but those deep eyes are full of star-like gentle light, flickering gently.

Lan Li watched Rooney quietly like this, watching the images in the depths of those eyes fade little by little, the illusory world of light and shadow vanished, and the weight of reality from gravity suddenly made her feet on the ground, and the down-to-earth feeling made Rooney's face clear, and she could also capture the warm concern under her eyes.

"I'm fine. Lan Li's eyes still stayed between those eyebrows, and finally, the smile on the corner of his mouth rose slightly, retracted his gaze, and shook his head to deny, "I'm serious, I'm fine." It's just that...... It's just a bit of a loss and I need to rehydrate now. I need to store a little water before I go to the bathroom. ”

It's a little humor between two actors that only two people who are trapped in a lightbox for a long time can understand.

Rooney laughed dumbly, "Jesus Christ, are you sure you didn't steal Alex's lines?"

In the last second, Ryan Stone, who was still as immobile as a mountain, began to joke wittily in the next second, such a stark change was really too fast, and it also proved from the side that Lan Li has now completely sobered up from the role.

Lowering his eyelids, Lan Li saw Rooney, who was trying his best to support him, barely holding his left arm, becoming the most important support point, the seemingly petite body burst out with powerful energy, and the perseverance between his eyebrows burst out with a sassy and heroic posture.

The smile on the corner of Lan Li's mouth rose slightly, "This is the second time." ”

The first time was on the first day of joining the crew.

According to the staff, Lan Li was exhausted, dehydrated and unconscious at that time, and even his whole strength was completely emptied, and he fell to the ground like a mountain.

If it weren't for Rooney, the injury would be a high probability event, and aside from the possibility of potential facial friction injuries, the weight of the entire body would collapse directly to the ground, and important parts such as shoulders and joints could be sprained or even fractured.

The consequences are unimaginable.

Today is the second time.

Lan Li's words had no beginning or end, Rooney didn't react for a moment, and then noticed Lan Li's gaze, so he reacted, chuckled, and raised his eyebrows calmly, "So, is this also in line with the rule twice?"

Two days rule, two rules. These are two different things, but they are also one and the same thing.

Rooney's thinking was beating too fast, Lan Li was stunned for a moment, and then he reacted, a smile appeared in his eyes, but he nodded seriously on the surface, "Yes, I am extremely strict with the rules of two times, and I still refuse to date the same person more than twice." So, I think, there should still be a clear understanding between us. ”

"Whew, rejoice. Rooney patted her chest and let out a long breath.

Raising their eyes, Lan Li and Rooney could see Nathan, who was standing next to him at a loss and cautiously, trying to come up to help, but he was worried about affecting the conversation between the two of them, and his hesitant appearance made the two of them laugh at the same time again.

Lan Li nodded to Nathan, expressing affirmation, and then with Nathan's help, he sat down next to him, and the muscles that were extremely tense could finally relax a little, in fact, there was no problem with physical strength, but his knees were a little weak, and he was dehydrated.

Taking the water cup with the straw plugged in, Lan Li slowly replenished his water, Alfonso and Emmanuel both stepped forward, Lan Li cast an inquiring gaze, "How is the shooting effect?"

"Beautiful! It's so beautiful!" Alfonso snapped his fingers, his face filled with excitement, and he couldn't help but rub his hands together, and the completion of each key scene meant that they were one step closer to the perfect finished product, which was exciting just by imagining it in his head.

Lan Li's gaze scanned back and forth between Alfonso and Emmanuel, "But?" he knew that there must be another twist in the back, otherwise, the two of them would not have come hand in hand.

"But ......" Sure enough, Alfonso hesitated for a moment, but said aloud, looking at Emmanuel.

Emmanuel simply picked up the conversation, "In the shot just now, we used more medium shots to capture the relationship between Ryan and Alex, and used the position contrast of the cabin space to show the communication between the characters, but during the shooting, I noticed the eye contact between the two of you, I don't know how to act, but I can read the spark......"

"So I thought," Emmanuel paused for a moment, gathering his thoughts, "maybe we could take the camera language of this scene a step further, with a change of position between close-ups and close-ups, highlighting your performance, weakening the impact of the space environment, enhancing the telepathy between the two characters, and completing the sublimation of the core of the whole story." ”

According to Emmanuel, it is to reimagine the camera language and performance content of the whole scene, then the whole scene must be re-shot, and then the appropriate shots are selected through post-production.

It's possible that the previous shot was all cut out and nothing remained, or it is possible that the re-shot shot later didn't work as expected, so it was all abandoned and the previous version was still used.

Either way, to put it simply, the actor has to work hard again, and some of the effort and sweat may be in vain.

Both Alfonso and Emmanuel knew what this meant, so as soon as Emmanuel finished speaking, Alfonso added, "Personally, the first version has lived up to expectations, exactly what I imagined when I conceived the script." But, however, Emmanuel is right about one thing, the chemistry between you is really lovely. ”

Alfonso's gaze moved back and forth between Lan Li and Rooney, and he didn't say anything, but the look full of ambiguity was enough, "Are you sure...... Can't something develop between Ryan and Alex?"

"Director. ”

"Alfonso. ”

Lan Li and Rooney said in unison, the two of them quickly exchanged glances, both chuckled, and finally Lan Li said, "We've talked about this topic." ”

Alfonso raised his hand in surrender, "Okay, okay, I see." ”

Rooney added, "Maybe it's a good idea to leave more blanks for the audience to fill in." We don't want to obscure the focus of the story, survival and life are the focus, but it's good to leave the audience with more to savor and chew on. ”

Alfonso nodded in agreement, "But I agree with Emmanuel's idea, in this scene, the communication between Ryan and Alex, just through the lines, is actually a bit blunt, you two are very good actors, fill in the blank through your eyes, I thought, when Alex chose to give up himself to fulfill Ryan, we captured a set of close-up shots of the eyes, and now we can make an echo." ”

As Rooney said, an intertextuality is formed on top of the language of the lens, not through the script, but through the performance, which is naturally presented to the audience, presenting the two characters' understanding of life, and then making the transition of the whole scene softer and more natural. ”

Alfonso spoke his thoughts in one breath, but when he finished speaking, he frowned and apologized for worry.

He knew how hard the filming of this scene had just been, Lan Li and Rooney had done their best, and how good the presentation was, it was precisely because of such a good performance, the chemistry that burst out from the eye contact between the actors, which made him and Emmanuel a little unbearable.

But now, he is asking Lan Li and Rooney to do it all over again, which is definitely torture.

"Lan Li, I'm sorry, I ......" Alfonso tried to say something, but didn't know what to say.

Lan Li shook his head with a smile and stopped Alfonso, "Let's do it all over again and try something new." Then, Lan Li looked up at Rooney and cast an inquiring look.

Rooney shrugged her shoulders eagerly, "Are we still here to waste time?" ”

"Are you sure?" Alfonso reconfirmed.

"Yes, I'm sure. Lan Li smiled dumbly.

In fact, the re-shooting of this scene is a kind of torture for Lan Li, a torture from the depths of the soul.

The filming process of "Gravity" gave Lan Li a lot of inspiration, starting from methodism, combining his own experience to refine a new character, and then, with his own experience and feelings, presented through the way of expressionism, moving back and forth between the boundary between loss of control and control, injecting a deeper and more special performance texture into the character.

It may be just a flicker and shift of eyes, but it is like the finishing touch, lighting up the soul of the performance.

The problem is that this experience has completely broken all dimensional walls, and all the story fragments about Chu Jiashu, about Lan Li, about Heather, and about Ryan are mixed together, false and true, true and false, forcing Lan Li to re-experience those pains over and over again.

Especially Heather.

A performance is like a process of slowly drowning in the depths of the ocean. The problem is not the difference between reality and illusion, but Lan Li's own struggles and pain. It's like tearing your soul apart.

But Lan Li still did not refuse the proposal to remake once, because he knew that this was the case in the process of performance, the creation and collision of art, countless sparks sprouted, and he tried again and again, trying to find the most perfect way to express his thoughts.

This was true when filming "Detachment", and now it is the same when filming "Gravity".

On the contrary, Lan Li appreciates Emmanuel's understanding of the camera and the performance, and he is willing to try again with open arms.

Now that the storm has begun, let it be more intense.
