The small town of Snim is like an isolated paradise, without the noise of vehicles, without the noise of voices, and even the shadow of people is not very common, so it is far away from the modern civilization of the city, wandering in the sea of green, so that the tense mind is relaxed little by little.

It is even more peaceful than the original "gravity" shooting base. After all, it was the filming base of Warner Bros., and although it was located in a remote area, you could still occasionally see vehicles and villagers coming and going, and occasionally you could see fans who came to make a pilgrimage.

But now the town of Sneem is a pure town, not widely known for the time being, like a paradise, so quiet that the time has been precipitated, no wonder people often say that there is no time in the mountains, and they simply do not perceive the push of the torrent of time, and everything slows down.

Once they arrived at the set, the actors began to practice the script, but this time it was a little different from the previous ones.

At the same time, the director modifies the performance according to his own needs and understanding, so that the actors have a relatively clear framework for the performance style and context before the official start of filming, which not only saves time, but also saves film. For small-cost independent crews, this is a very necessary link.

But the problem now is that Ogels's script is still not finished, especially after entering the forest, and it needs to be written while shooting, which also creates many problems for script practice.

From a creative point of view, in fact, the main plot line has not changed much, the story is still the same story, and the parts that need to be modified by Oulgels have been completed, but from the perspective of performance, what has really changed is the lines, emotions, situations and other performance details.

For example, when facing the same scene, in the original script, David may have responded like this, but now that the character setting has been changed, then the lines need to be adjusted, or the mood is not the same - the part of the creation that Ogles needs to complete while filming in the future is these, which is also the reason why the movie can be started when the script has not been fully created, and it can be played on the spot.

It's just that there is no way to go smoothly through the script exercise: because there is no way to determine the mood and state of the characters.

Eventually, the script exercise evolved into a different kind of discussion.

In fact, just like the discussion between Lan Li and Ognes at the beginning, everyone expressed their own opinions on the plot and characters, and explored each other's views from the mouths of the rival actors, and interpreted the story and core from different angles-

In the context of Auggs, he hopes to maintain the diversity and complexity of the whole story, and has the possibility of extending in different directions, then, relying only on the wisdom of Ogles or Lan Li, this must have limitations, because everyone's thinking has its own limitations and blind spots, and only by brainstorming can we truly present a colorful social level. So, Lan Li took the initiative to come up with such an idea.

Oulgels had reservations, he felt that such a variety of ways of discussing could easily get out of the frame and might end up deviating from his original intention, and then the whole film would become more complex than it would be worth the cost, but Oulgels did not object, he still opened up the possibilities.

It wasn't long before Ogles understood Lan Li's intentions:

The entire crew and cast are formed after the nod of Ogels, and each actor is selected for a special reason, the fit between them and the role is what Ogles values the most, in other words, there are similarities between them and the characters, which allows them to derive their own ideas on the basis of fitting Ogels' style, and make the characters full little by little, and the story level is also enriched.

Here, Owgels had to face a serious challenge - how to master the measure.

Just like the original script of "Jurassic World", the greed of biological weapons, the ambition of human beings to claim to be God, the importance of respecting life and family belonging, the moral of the whole story is incomparably huge and greedy, but nothing can be told well, but it weakens the deep meaning of the story;

Owgels also faces the same problem, but compared with the "Jurassic World", the pattern and attributes of "Lobster" have an inherent advantage, because the depth of thought itself is hidden in the background of the entire story, and there is no need to dig or elevate it, nor does it need the route and carving of the plot.

What Ogles needs to do now is not to greedily continue to add content, but on the basis of the original story, give the actors enough room to play, and then modify some lines, so that the performance can fit within the framework of the story background, and derive the character's own flesh and blood, the ultimate goal is to make the setting of this "utopia" more delicate and emotional, which is enough to achieve a strong reflection effect.

Of course, it is easy to talk on paper, but difficult to operate in practice. Owgels still has a lot of work to do.

The script lasted two weeks, which was far more than expected – as originally planned, it would take up to five days of practice, and then go straight to filming, but things gradually developed into infinite possibilities, as if David and the woman's characters had their own attributes, and the other characters had their own one-line threads.

It must be emphasized that the original premise of the Ogles script for the supporting characters is correct, and there is no need for large-scale changes like David and the woman, but now, the script exercise gives these contexts a clearer and more precise definition, giving the performance a clearer and more definite direction, which is a good thing for the actors.

Sharpen the knife and do not mistake the woodcutter. The elongated script practice provides a solid foundation for actual shooting, just like the repeated rehearsals before the official performance of a stage play.

When the film finally officially started filming, this subtle change could be felt from the first scene.

He felt that these brown leather shoes were the most suitable choice, and his back ached, but unlike before, it was no longer the unbearable pain. ”

He thought to himself, his wife chose to leave for love, so what did he insist on? He didn't cry bitterly about it, and he didn't think that the first reaction when the others faced separation was to cry. It can't be said that he is full of hope, but at least he is not full of bitterness. ”

Rachel sat on an old dark brown couch with dark veins, and recited in a steady, cold tone, her tone rising and falling slightly, but she couldn't find much hidden emotion, like a cold bystander's perspective of God.

Although Rachel's "short-sighted woman" will not appear until the second half of the forest part, and at the same time, the narrative perspective of the whole story is also dominated by David, which deserves to be the absolute core, but at the end of the story, it can be found that it is the short-sighted woman who really grasps the development of the story-

From the first scene of the story, she appears as a narrator, but not from the perspective of the storyteller, but from the perspective of God, which also means that from the very beginning, she is calculating everything, and then at her own pace, attracting David to take the bait step by step.

This kind of perspective of the superior who controls the overall situation is also the reason why Owgels put the core role above the role of "short-sighted woman" from the beginning.

Now, Rachel is trying to interpret the narrator in her own way - in fact, she has already entered the short-sighted woman performance mode at this time.

Calm, introverted, objective, without much emotion, but not cold, more of a rationality.

The first scene hasn't officially started yet, and Rachel's narration will be recorded separately in the later stage, and her demonstration is now more about helping the actors and the atmosphere of the audience get into the groove.

After the narration ended, Rachel paused and cast her gaze towards Ogels, "Director, are you sure that the last sentence must be added? If it's told too clearly, does it ruin the surprise? This doesn't match the tone of the movie, right?"

Ogles took off the headset he was wearing and shook his head at Rachel, "No, we need some spoilers. Regarding the ex-wife part, we will not deliberately mention it later, so we need to bury clues for the audience to speculate about the relationship between David and his ex-wife. Now the spoiler information is still too little for the audience, they will find it strange, and then slowly dig out more things from the follow-up story. To avoid being blunt, we need to cram clues in different places. ”

Rachel calmed down and thought seriously for a moment, "You mean, we all know the big picture now, so we're especially sensitive when we see these clues, but if it's the audience, they'll only be confused?"

Ogles smiled at Rachel in affirmation.

Ogles withdrew his gaze and was about to announce the start of filming, only to notice that Rachel showed more doubtful expressions, interrupting Ogles's rhythm again;

"Yes. Rachel replied in the affirmative, "Why did his wife leave him?" Rachel pointed to Lan Li, "I know those truths, even handsome guys can be abandoned, but this has no sense of substitution for the audience, how on earth did he convince the audience that his wife left? He doesn't have a beer belly, he doesn't have a sloppy appearance, he doesn't have the image of a greasy middle-aged man, it's not right, he's too ......"

"Scholar?" Lan Li took over with a smile.

Rachel nodded, "Yes, Scholar! He looks like a harmless ...... Big boy, I don't see why my wife left him. ”
