022 Lens darling
David put his hands on his waist, and an uncontrollable irritability and helplessness stirred in his chest. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Generally speaking, in order to please auspiciousness, the crew will arrange a simple shot in the first scene, and after it is successfully passed, it means that the next shooting will be smooth. That's why they chose this scene.
But I never expected that the first shot would only start for two seconds, and then something would happen, and it would be the most basic, amateurish, and speechless situation - the actor's focus and focus were off, which really made David angry.
One of the biggest differences between film, television, and theater is the visual focus.
On the stage of the drama, the actors' focus is always aimed at the audience, they need to release their emotions to the audience, and even look at a specific audience to complete the communication with the performance, bringing visual and auditory shock.
Film and television are different, because the camera lens is constantly moving, the director hopes to switch different angles, different distances, different positions to create a different sense of space, the color, light, scenery, and characters in the lens are all means for the director to express his thoughts, which is called "lens language", which means that the actor's focus should be based on the director, it may be looking at an empty venue, it may be looking at the opponent actor, it may be facing the camera.
Many new actors, especially those who have transitioned from theater, will habitually look at the camera, especially the red light above the camera, which indicates that it is running, and use this as a focus to adjust their focus and rhythm. It's not uncommon for rookie level mistakes like this, but it's really frustrating.
Lan Li made this mistake just now. As the camera moves, Lan Li's focus is attracted by the red light, and then follows the footsteps of the cameraman, which completely breaks the whole picture.
David was indeed furious that the first scene of the "Pacific War" was actually interrupted because of such a nihilistic mistake, and the good omen of the good start was in vain. David gritted his teeth fiercely, he could teach this stupid newcomer a good lesson, but thinking that this was just the first scene of the start-up, he finally suppressed his anger, "Don't stare at the camera, the first rule of being on camera, understand?"
There were a lot of old fritters standing behind the crew, all of whom turned their heads and ears, with a gloating and mocking smile on their faces, whether it was a rookie making a mistake or a newcomer being trained, this was the best conversation for the crew members after dinner. The "Pacific War" has just started on the first day, and Lan Li has a affectionate nickname, "Rookie".
Hearing the sound of "card", Lan Li's first reaction was a little confused, full of confidence and ambition to stand in front of the camera, his performance of this scene has been in his chest, figure it out in place, he thinks that there is no problem, and he can even amaze the audience, but he didn't expect that it was just two seconds into the start, and he was actually called to stop, like a stick in the head, Lan Li was really a little caught off guard.
Subconsciously turning his head, Lan Li looked for Darling's figure in the crowd - didn't he just say, medium shot to long shot, orbital shooting? Why did the actual shooting, but the close-up to medium shot, the photographer shooting? He suddenly saw the photographer's appearance in his line of sight, and his attention was distracted, coupled with the unfamiliarity with the action camera, he instinctively adjusted the focus according to the red dot, which led to the situation.
Lan Li easily saw Darling, but he was talking in a low voice with the people around him, the ease of his eyebrows and the smile on his lips didn't seem to notice anything wrong at all. Realizing Lan Li's gaze, Dalin raised his head, glanced at it, and paused it like a feather, and then immediately put it aside, without any superfluous emotions, as if Lan Li was just a little ant, not worth mentioning.
This is a fact, Darling is the chief drama manager of the entire crew, high up, and controls the power of life and death of all the work behind the scenes; Lan Li is just a fledgling little newcomer, with no power, no roots, and no foundation, and even a handful of friends in the crew.
Lan Li didn't know why Darling wanted to set himself up, but now he finally understood what Rami meant, what is called "little ghosts are difficult", the crew not only has directors and producers who have the power of life and death, but also co-actors and behind-the-scenes staff, the latter may not be able to decide life and death, but if they stumble in the details, it is enough to make people miserable.
Suppressing the emotions stirring in his chest, Lan Li did not complain to David stupidly, nodded, and calmly accepted his mistakes, "I'm sorry." I'll take notice. As an actor, the way to get back to the scene is very simple, to conquer the director with a wonderful performance, this is the most direct and effective way.
Readjust your breathing to avoid your mind being disrupted by this small accident just now, and enter the performance state again.
From Eugene's body, Lan Li couldn't help but think of himself in his previous life, after the car accident, he woke up from a coma, but found that his body couldn't move, the panic and fear were like endless free fall, until the doctor sentenced him to death, and he would be trapped in this hospital bed for the rest of his life. Turning his head, he saw children playing in the courtyard of the hospital, running, laughing, and frolicking, and the golden sunlight casting a thin halo over everything, which was heartbreakingly beautiful.
"Let's shoot!" David's voice rang out again.
"In Pearl Harbor, in the Pacific Islands, in the Philippines, in the Malay Peninsula, in the Dutch East Indies ......" radio, Churchill's speech is telling about the crisis of the current war situation, the crackling sound of firewood in the fireplace more and more reflects the coldness and silence in the room, Churchill's voice without too many ups and downs adds a touch of tragedy, "Everyone must recognize that the current situation is precarious......
Eugene walked down from the second floor, wearing his coat, and his steps slowed down, and when he turned his head, he saw his father and brother listening carefully in the living room.
His gaze fell on his brother with some envy and longing, his straight military uniform shining in the firelight, and his father holding his pipe, his straight spine slightly bent, his face heavy and deep in thought. "We can only ...... if the United States of America unites with the British Empire against Japan"
The elder brother first noticed Eugene's appearance and raised his head with a hesitant look, and then his father also raised his head and glanced at Eugene.
Eugene's steps froze in place, his relaxed shoulders stiffened, his straight spine trying to support his strength, retaining the last shred of dignity in front of his father and brother.
However, he failed, the mismatched eyes were full of too much weight, and he pressed down fiercely, his heart was firmly grasped, and all his breath was cut off, and his hard shoulder line couldn't help but tremble slightly, revealing a trace of sadness and pain, but the struggling persistence could not last long, it was shattered in less than a second, and then completely collapsed, the trembling fragility floated down with despair, as if it had lost all its strength, and even the weight of a jacket could not be maintained.
The intermingling of despair and anger made Eugene's jaw tense slightly, and he avoided his gaze in embarrassment, revealing half of his face under the light and shadow, one calm and one indifferent, but outlining a touch of loneliness, slowly fading between the sparse halos. The thick and slender eyelashes cast a shadow, which shook slightly, and then turned into countless fragments, falling apart, and a hazy sadness in the long narrow eyes spread out silently like ripples.
Then, the father shifted his gaze to the radio again, and his brother's gaze hesitantly fell on Eugene's shoulder, burning with pain.
Eugene could no longer bear this torment, and walked quickly out of the hall, and took a stride towards the gate, his heavy steps staggering, but without the slightest pause, but faster and faster, and the flames of resentment and hatred bloomed under his feet. "Bang", the door was slammed shut, and the muffled sound cut off all emotions and came to an abrupt end.
The father, who was sitting in the hall, couldn't help but raise his head and turned his head to look in the direction where Eugene left, his eyes were lonely.
It's over, the filming of this scene is over, the beginning and end are only five to seven seconds, and it's over quickly, just a microcosm of a moment. However, the set was silent, not only did David not speak, but even the other actors held their breath.
David's eyes burst out with an incredible light, and it was hard to believe that in just five seconds just now, this rookie rookie burst out with such amazing energy.
There is not a single line, not even a close-up of the face, the whole shot only has Eugene's back and side face, but the delicate changes in the back muscles and the desire of the slender body are still gone, but the despair, anger, sadness, pain, remorse, The mixed emotions of complaining are vividly displayed, even in such a narrow window, he still shows the changes and ups and downs of emotions, the point is so far away that the afterglow is far away, and the emotions on the side of the face are turbulent, which is definitely a model of silence is better than sound, and it seems that the traces of time on the face can be clearly seen between the intertwined light and shadow, and the shock makes the language lose its meaning.
He is like the darling of the lens, the projection of light, the capture of images, and the transformation of movement and stillness are perfectly and vividly presented in the camera lens, as if every second of time is endowed with meaning. It's a skill, it's a talent, it's like a blessing from God, born for the camera, for the performance.
In five seconds, but in just five seconds, the actor expressed all the emotions in place, and David could even sketch a vivid image of Eugene's entire character in his mind, and the wonderful performance was truly amazing.
"Ka!" Davy finally found his voice, ending the freeze of the entire set, and the shock came like a torrential rain.
