023 Born Actor
The whole set was silent, not because they needed to be quiet during the filming, but because they could clearly feel the power of the performance, dragging them into the real scene of the "Pacific War" story, immersive and empathetic. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
There is such a person in the performance industry, he or she has a natural sense of the camera, can always easily capture the focus of the camera, showing the most beautiful, natural and vivid side, the camera seems to love their posture very much, the charm of acting skills is exerted to the extreme, and it is easy to touch the soul of the audience. They are known as natural actors.
However, there are too few such geniuses, and it has nothing to do with acting, but with talent - they can always easily win the favor of the camera lens, which can be called the darling of God. Take Marlon-Brando, for example, and Audrey-Hepburn.
In the brief performance just now, they once again saw this talent, a talent that makes people jealous.
Every move, smile and smile makes people can't help but savor it, the mixed emotions dance on the tip of the tongue, and the brief glimpse deduces the colorful touch, and even outlines the image of the whole character in the mind: slender but stubborn, fragile but strong, thin but persistent. It is unimaginable that in just five seconds, it set off a storm in the minds of every onlooker at the scene.
What's even more incredible is that such a performance actually comes from a rookie, a rookie who caused the entire crew to fall into a depression due to a low-level mistake just three minutes ago, and a rookie who showed the power and depth of the performance The tip of the iceberg is enough to set off a tsunami. Such a contradictory combination is comical as a joke, but it is actually played out in front of my eyes.
"Babble", the door was pushed open again, and Lan Li walked back to the set, her narrow eyebrows raised slightly, revealing a puzzled search, "So, is the performance just now okay?"
Darling's cheeks were slightly hot standing in the crowd, it was just a casual prank, he clearly knew that Lan Li could only eat coptis dumbly - even if Lan Li opened his mouth to accuse him, he would not worry at all, the whole crew would stand by his side, but Lan Li would fall into the dilemma of being excluded, but the direction of the situation was a little unexpected, he only felt that his cheeks were hot now, as if he had been slapped in the face, especially when he saw Lan Li's professional and serious eyes, it made him even more embarrassed.
Before Darling could realize it, he looked away, avoiding the sight of Lan Li. But then he realized that he was holding back -- he actually flinched in front of a rookie actor? Even if he made it clear that he would give a rookie a dismissal, so what? This kind of situation is really common in Hollywood, but his momentum is a little shorter in front of the rookie, and the humiliation burns from the soles of his feet.
"No problem. David, as the director, was the first to come back to his senses and responded, and then the crew began to riot in a low voice, and after everyone came to their senses, they couldn't help but try to make some small moves to hide their embarrassment, which made David completely calm down, "Very good." David gave a pertinent assessment, in fact, the performance just now could be called "wonderful", but now it's only the first day, there is no need for him to raise the bar too high, does he?
Lan Li couldn't help but secretly clench his fists, he finally passed the first scene smoothly, which was a good start.
David paused for a moment, still not suppressing his inner curiosity, "This is your first official performance?" He has been a TV series director for ten years, and he has handled not a thousand but eight hundred actors, but he has never seen such a spiritual performance.
Spirituality, this is something that cannot be seen or touched but can be felt, such as the delicate sense of vulnerability shown by Edward Norton in his debut film "Fear of the First Degree", such as the trepidation and innocence shown by Haley-Joel-Osment under the lens of "The Sixth Sense", which really makes watching the performance a pleasure, and colleagues also give the film a unique temperament.
However, such actors are more in the film industry, and the TV drama industry is trapped by the shooting method of the series, the positioning mode of the market, etc., and it is rare to be able to tap the level and depth of the actors' performances, let alone show spirituality. At least David didn't have one.
Until today.
"Yes. Lan Li nodded and expressed his affirmation, "I have only participated in drama performances before this. ”
David suddenly realized, "That makes sense. "The first mistake of the first shot is especially frequent in theater actors. "Let's continue shooting, okay?" Davy was even more curious about whether this was just a flash of inspiration or a real talent, after all, the shot just now was only five seconds, and it was still the beginning of a whole series of ten episodes, and there was still a long time to complete.
"Of course. Lan Li replied as a matter of course.
Acting is a very interesting thing, in Lan Li's view, after a "start shooting", he enters a wonderful state, although he is playing a completely different person, but it is deduced according to his own understanding and model, and he can even feel that his connection with the real world is weakening, and his connection with the virtual story is strengthening, wandering between the real and the unreal, the chaotic zone between self and others, the familiar and the unfamiliar, is really exciting.
Lan Li couldn't wait to continue filming.
Looking around, Lan Li was looking for Darling's figure, how the next scene should be moved and how it should be lit, this is still up to the drama to tell.
However, Darling is missing, and Darling, who was standing next to the monitor just a few minutes ago, is now nowhere to be found on the entire set.
"Eugene. A short, suspender-shirted, thirty-year-old man walked over and said, "I'm Stewart, assistant playwright, and I'm here to explain the next scene for you." Lan Li retracted his gaze and nodded at the other party, and then he continued, "The next scene is your own scene, after you run out of the door, you pick up the bicycle on the ground, and then ride all the way out of the mansion. Deacon will run after you, but you let it stay and walk away. ”
Eugene was the son of a wealthy family, his father was a private doctor, and he was a member of high society in the forties. Therefore, Eugene lived in a large mansion, which was the traditional mansion where slave owners lived in the previous feudal society. Deacon is Eugene's shepherd dog, and this is also his most beloved companion.
Lan Li followed Stuart to the door, and Stuart showed Lan Li the entire forward track, as well as the position of the camera position, and the distance of the entire frame. Lan Li was not satisfied with talking on paper, he sat on the bicycle himself, rehearsed it, and after getting the confirmation, he inquired in detail about the position comparison between Eugene and the other actors - the garden gardener was busy on the grass, and his mother chased him out and called him back to eat, they would all appear in the picture, and Lan Li asked very trivial.
Stewart patiently answered all the questions, and finally gave David a signal of "ready", by which time the entire crew had been waiting for nearly five minutes.
Instead of rushing, David gave Lan Li enough time, and as soon as he entered the shoot, he knew that his patience had been rewarded.
Eugene ran out of the house, quickly picked up the bicycle placed on the lawn, jumped on it, and pedaled the stone road, but because of the emotion, his movements seemed a little clumsy, his hands seemed to be calm, the head of the bicycle swayed leisurely, but the focused eyes did not waver at all, with indomitable determination and determination.
One moment, then another, and press the pedal harder.
The stumbling of the stone road made Eugene's anger stuck in his chest, and he could not vent it out, but the shoulders that were re-tightened did not have the slightest strength and majesty, but revealed a trace of uneasiness and vulnerability, the front of the car twisted a few times, and Eugene was almost about to fall, so that the heart of the mother who chased it out surged to her heart, "Xiao Jin, dinner is ready!"
Gritting his teeth, his feet stepped on the wheel again, the bicycle finally avoided the danger of falling, and then smoothed again, faster and faster, faster and faster, Eugene's whole person seemed to fly, the jacket fluttered gently in the wind, and the short golden brown hair was completely blown away in the sun, flying uninhibited and stubbornly, and even the light could not stop at the ends of the hair.
"Deacon, don't come along. ”
Eugene shouted at the old fellow who had been chasing after him loyally, and the sun shone down in those narrow eyes, rippling gently, but scorching with a slight tingle. Then Eugene rushed into a storm of wind and disappeared in an instant, leaving only the corner of his jacket slowly disappearing in the shade of the verdant trees.
"Genius!" This is the only thought in David's mind, just a bicycle action, but Lan Li shows Eugene's inner turmoil and uneasiness vividly, it seems that even the bicycle, the sheepdog and the mother have become part of the performance, all the factors have become the puzzle pieces of this performance, and play an important role in the seemingly traceless but deep bone marrow performance, in one go, presenting a picture beyond imagination!
As a director, David knows all too well about the three-dimensional effect of the whole picture, and he knows that the scene is flawless and impeccable. Not because of the script, not because of the camera, but because of the actor, that genius who was born to be an actor.
"Ka!" David didn't hold back after all, clenched his fists and stood up directly, and then slammed into the air hard, venting his inner excitement.
Such a start, such a start, such a departure, is really beautiful, and no one can ask for more. No one!
