Chapter 5 Basic Teaching of Actors

Different from Lao Xu's systematic and meticulous teaching methods, Wang Zijian went straight to the point from the beginning and went straight to the point.

"In the artistic creation of performance, the actor is represented as a character on the one hand, that is, the character, and on the other hand, as the owner of the image, the creator, the two are both contradictory and unified!"

"An actor should incarnate into a role, enter the prescribed situation of the role, live the spiritual life of the character, and at the same time, as the creator of the role, he must always supervise his performance and control the whole process of performing the role......"

It is not for nothing that Wang Zijian is known as a palace-level performing artist, and he has redefined the actor based on his decades of understanding and research on performance.

This point of view makes Mu Ye refreshed, in his cognition, a good actor should devote himself to the role, so that he can play a role well and live.

But thinking about it carefully, Wang Zijian's understanding and interpretation of the division of actors into two seems to be reasonable.

Wang Zijian continued to expound his views unhurriedly, and Mu Ye fell into contemplation from time to time, as if he had realized something.

The gap between Mu Ye and Wang Zijian, who retains all his acting skills and understanding of the real world, is like that of a primary school student and a university professor.

Wang Zijian's casual guidance and teaching can make Mu Ye ponder for a long time and gain a lot.

Mu Ye vaguely sensed where his problem was, but he always felt that there was a thin layer of moon Mo that he couldn't break through.

"When I was performing, I was living a double life. ”

"I'm crying and laughing, but at the same time I'm analyzing my tears and laughter so that they can affect the hearts of those I want to touch more strongly!"

After talking about the definition and understanding of actors, Wang Zijian began to deeply analyze the psychological dynamics of his own performance!

Mu Ye listened intently, and his heart was a little excited.

In the real world, there will never be a palace-level veteran actor who opens his heart to you, analyzes himself so deeply and straightforwardly, and imparts his decades of experience and understanding to you without reservation!

This is a unique learning opportunity for any actor, let alone Mu Ye, an acting student who is not even a newcomer.

Mu Ye was like a sponge, constantly absorbing Wang Zijian's knowledge and experience, but at the same time, he had more doubts.

"Then how can we do a good job in the role of the creator, and how should the creator and the character itself be balanced?" Mu Ye asked, confused in his heart.

"Do you know old Coglan?" asked Wang Zijian.

He is a famous French actor and an advocate and practitioner of Expressionism. "For the famous performance genres and typical actor representatives, Mu Ye is naturally no stranger.

Wang Zijian nodded with satisfaction and said: "For this problem, Lao Cogland interprets it like this: the duality of an actor, part of his self is a performer, and another part of himself is a tool he manipulates. ”

"Do you mean that the creator exists as a subject for the actor?" Mu Ye asked like a child with a strong thirst for knowledge, looking for the bottom line.

He gradually discovered his problem - in all his performances, there was never only the character, not the creator.

He gets lost in the emotions of the characters and has no presence of the 'creator', causing his performance to spiral out of control.

"It's not the subject, it's the dominant!" Wang Zijian said: "If the actor as a creator is the first self, the role is the second self." ”

"In the actor, the first self processes and processes the second self until it is deformed, so as to gradually form the character that the work needs. ”

"The more dominant the first self, the more successful our performances will be......"

Wang Zijian said more and more profoundly, and Mu Ye found that he was a little unable to keep up with the rhythm.

Wang Zijian Xingxu also discovered this problem, so he said with a smile: "In this way, I will give you a performance question, and we will analyze the specific problem." ”

Mu Ye nodded with interest, he really liked the performance, even if he received countless sneers, he could not wear down his enthusiasm for the performance!

"For example, you and your girlfriend are studying in a different place, almost two hundred miles apart.

She often takes time out of her days to take a four-hour drive to see you.

Every time I brought a lot of cakes and bread, she later told you that she was afraid that your classmates would not eat enough of you.

Once, she didn't come back that day, as promised.

You were playing a game with your classmates, and she cried and called and said, "I'm sorry, I just spent all my money on a cake, and I don't have any money to buy a ticket, I'm sorry......

That's the setting, you put on a show!"

To Mu Ye's surprise, as soon as Wang Zijian finished speaking, he really conjured up a bedroom in front of him...... There is no difference between all this and the real thing!

Mu Ye gathered his mind, brewed emotions, and then made it to the computer desk and started the performance!

He manipulated the mouse with his fingers, as if he were really a student focused on playing games.

At this time, his mobile phone rang, and Mu Ye took the time to press the speakerphone of his mobile phone - he didn't have time to hold the phone at this time.

His girlfriend's voice came from his phone, telling him that he had no money to buy a ticket because he had bought a cake......

Listening to his girlfriend's crying apology, Mu Ye was stunned for a moment.

As usual, at this point he was completely immersed in the character and couldn't extricate himself!

I thought that I had never taken the initiative to see my girlfriend.

Thinking about his girlfriend, spending eight hours a week traveling back and forth just to see him.

Thinking about her, she thought that she loved cakes, and even ran out of ticket money.

Thinking that she was sad that she couldn't see herself, and that she was playing a game without heart and lungs.

Thinking that she cried and said sorry to herself......

In fact, the person who should say sorry the most...... It's me!

At this moment, the guilt, distress, emotion, and sadness in his heart welled up, and tears couldn't help but flow......

After the performance, it took a long time for Mu Ye to calm down.

For this performance that Mu Ye felt very satisfied with, Wang Zijian smiled.

"First, the performance is too superficial, and there is no sense of hierarchy......"

"Second, in the final stage, your emotions are completely out of control!

You are so immersed in guilt and remorse that you lose control of your first self.

Your roommate is still waiting for you to play together, your girlfriend is still waiting for you to talk back and comfort, and what are you doing is just shed tears......

The premise of a good performance is to be able to perform it completely, otherwise even if your emotions are in place, it will be in vain!"

"The premise of entering the play is to integrate everything to be filmed into the bone marrow, and everything is acting according to the instinct of the body.

But what you call entering the drama is that you are immersed in the drama and manipulated by emotions, which is a completely different level. ”

……

Mu Ye's face was flushed, his self-confessed good performance seemed to Wang Zijian to have so many problems, it was simply unsightly!

It's just that what Mu Ye doesn't know is that the system-generated Wang Zijian is judged by the most stringent standards for his performance.

Even if he is an artist with superb acting skills, in Wang Zijian's eyes, I am afraid he can find a lot of faults.

In terms of his performance alone, there are still some commendable points, at least in terms of emotion and emotion, the grasp of emotions is very good.

"Okay, this time, you pay attention, let's change the next performance question. After Mu Ye's reflection, Wang Zijian continued.

Mu Ye nodded solemnly, and at the same time secretly admonished himself...... This time, the same mistake must not be made!

"In the winter of this year, a porter braved the wind and snow to guard the train station and wait for business.

His face was sallow and his nose was runny, and he occasionally shivered, and he gulped down steamed buns.

Which child will he be, and what old man's son will he be......"

Keeping in mind the balance between the creator and the character, Muye began to try to perform in a completely different way...... Over and over.

What Mu Ye didn't know was that as his performances continued to try and progress, the acting skills in his personal attributes continued to rise at a value of 0.1......

……

Another dormitory at the same time.

Zhu Yingjie was unable to sleep with his eyes open, he was indignant in his heart, and the more he thought about it, the more he hated!

Not only for Mu Ye's merciless humiliation today, but also for his timidity and retreat.

Zhu Yingjie in the quilt thought that if he could do it all over again, he would never back down even if he fought with Mu Ye to the point of bleeding!

But the past cannot be repeated, and we can only find the field again in the future!

was gritting his teeth, Zhu Yingjie suddenly thought of tomorrow morning's acting class.

Every acting class is when Mu Ye makes a fool of himself, if he posts his ugliness on the school network at that time, no, the whole Internet......

Thinking that Mu Ye's ugly appearance of crying bitterly became the laughing stock of the whole school and even the whole Internet, Zhu Yingjie couldn't help but laugh out loud.

He can't wait for tomorrow!
