Chapter 270: Ingenuity
"Keep your palms soft and firm, like breakdancing. ”
"Come, follow me!"
Martial arts instructor Cao Hua was demonstrating face-to-face with Lin Xiaoguang, and said: "Take a step to the side with your left foot, and stretch your right foot straight ......."
Although Cao Hua is the martial arts instructor of the crew of "Condor", when he heard that Zhang Jizhong planned to integrate dance into martial arts, Cao Hua, who has 20 years of breaking skills, immediately recommended himself to Zhang Jizhong, and after getting Zhang Jizhong's nod and consent, he was also able to show his dancing talent in filming.
Cao Hua seems to do the same action, when Yang Guo moves his palm, he must be different from Xiaolongnu's movements, not too soft, it must feel like breaking dance, and add a little strength to the gentle movements to show the due masculinity.
When he first started practicing, Lin Xiaoguang, who had never learned dance, was really a little confused, and his movements were a little mechanical, which made Cao Hua laugh and said, "Xiaoguang, you really want to break dance?"
Regarding Lin Xiaoguang's lack of performance, although Cao Hua was anxious and depressed, he still put on a smile and patiently talked to Lin Xiaoguang about the essentials of the action.
If it were another actor, maybe Cao Hua would have scolded, but who made him the actor Lin Xiaoguang?
Faced with Cao Hua's seemingly joking ridicule, Lin Xiaoguang was also happy, and joked with a smile: "Isn't it?"
"Of course not, I'm asking you to incorporate some break dancing elements into the martial arts, so that the fight will be very beautiful. ”
"Okay, I got the director. ”
So, under the guidance of Cao Hua, Lin Xiaoguang was stunned to rehearse repeatedly for a morning, and by the time he ate at noon, Lin Xiaoguang already felt that his wrists and arms were a little strained, especially the wrist, and he couldn't help but tremble with chopsticks when eating.
If it weren't for filming, Lin Xiaoguang would not be guilty of this crime, fortunately, the scene of the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra is mainly based on martial arts, supplemented by dance, only need to integrate some basic movements of break dancing, under Cao Hua's patient guidance, before the sun goes down, Lin Xiaoguang finally mastered this set of movements proficiently.
However, in the entire crew of "The Condor Heroes", the hardest thing is Liu Qianqian who plays the "Little Dragon Girl".
Let's just say today, Liu Qianqian has to film the scene of taking in 'Xiao Yang Guo' Ding Dang during the day, and she has to shoot the scene of practicing the Jade Maiden's Heart Sutra with "Da Yang Guo" at night.
Not to mention that Liu Qianqian's mother Liu Xiaoli looked distressed, even Lin Xiaoguang sweated for her female partner.
However, what worries Lin Xiaoguang the most is not Liu Qianqian, who suffers for the play, but Xiao Dingdang, the actor of "Xiao Yang Guo......
Seriously, Lin Xiaoguang really doesn't understand, when Zhang Jizhong chose to play the young Yang Guo by himself, why did he choose his unattractive Xiao Ding Dang to play the young Yang Guo......
Although this Tinker Bell is a very famous child star, his appearance, image and temperament are not suitable for Yang Guo at all, if he can be replaced by Cao Jun, who also debuted as a child star.
Alas, young people now, don't you know the pain of Lin Xiaoguang being bombarded by Xiao Dingdang's chattering gong throat all over the TV in his previous life!
This kid doesn't care about his acting skills, anyway, he looks like a babbling bear child.
Xiao Yang Guo played by Tinker Bell is really too noisy, especially the dubbing voice is also loud, and the overall tone of the play "The Condor Heroes" is quite quiet, so the sense of disobedience is super strong.
After watching too much of Xiao Dingdang's babbling performance in front of the camera, Lin Xiaoguang suddenly understood one thing, that is, why so many actors finally became a director or even a producer.
Obviously, Lin Xiaoguang is now an actor, and his main task in the crew is to play the play well, even if he has a lot of ideas and opinions in his heart now, but because he is only an actor, he has no way or can not bear to point fingers behind the scenes, and he is naturally not qualified to ask about the casting of producer Zhang Jizhong.
In other words, it has been two days since he came to Jiuzhaigou, and Lin Xiaoguang has not been in contact with the production requirements of Zhang Jizhong's team, let alone the shooting style of director Yu Min.
Therefore, after the whole set of action rehearsals was proficient, Lin Xiaoguang watched the shooting with the group.
The scene that the crew is about to shoot is arranged in a dark cave.
There are two scenes in the cave, the first scene is very simple, that is, Xiaolongnu teaches Yang Guo this scene, as her strength to beat people becomes lighter and lighter, Yang Guo knows that Xiaolongnu has a hard mouth and a soft heart, and her heart is kind.
The second scene is more difficult, it is said that Xiaolongnu pulled Yang Guo to sit on the Hanyu bed, and the director Yu Min asked the gaffer to gradually adjust the light according to the relationship between the characters in the play.
"When Sissi pulls Ding Dang to sit on the bed, you will slowly change the light in the room from a cold blue light to a warm yellow light. ”
"Hmm. ”
"You have to pay attention to the rhythm, change slowly, not too fast. ”
"Okay, I know. ”
"What I mean by shooting this is to indicate that Xiao Yangguo's vigilant, guarded, and cold heart from the beginning is slowly opening up, and the relationship between the two is relaxed. ”
After speaking, Yu Min licked his lips and told these woods that the drama was boring, and there was no sense of accomplishment at all, so why can't you ask me?
Yu Min shook his hand, turned his head, and just saw Lin Xiaoguang standing two meters behind the camera to watch, so he asked casually: "Xiaoguang, you are also here, let me ask you, do you know what shooting techniques I used in this scene?"
Lin Xiaoguang nodded knowingly, and said with a straight color: "Director, you are using light, shadow and color to highlight the changes in the character's mood, emotions and character relationships. ”
After hearing this, Yu Min smiled with relief: "Yes, I finally met someone who knows how to do it!"
As soon as the words fell, in an instant, almost everyone present turned their eyes to Lin Xiaoguang.
Even Liu Qianqian, who was sitting on the cold jade bed waiting for the play, couldn't help but glance at Lin Xiaoguang.
Lin Xiaoguang just smiled and didn't say anything more.
After all, Lin Xiaoguang had already learned a little from Sun Ming, the photographer of "Life Show", as early as when he was filming "Life Show" in Chongqing.
Who is Sun Ming?
Don't talk about those who don't have it, anyway, to sum it up in one sentence, Sun Ming is not only the winner of the Magic City Film Festival Photography Award, but also the winner of the Golden Rooster Film Festival Photography Award.
Therefore, Lin Xiaoguang has long learned these seemingly mysterious shooting skills of Yu Min from the photography master Sun Ming.
It's just that Lin Xiaoguang was a little surprised and delighted, Yu Min would actually use the technique of making movies to shoot TV series, from this small detail, Lin Xiaoguang can also see that Yu Min is a director with heart and artistic pursuit.
"Prepare for me!"
"Let's go!"
With a "snap", Liu Qianqian and Ding Dang immediately entered the play and nodded at director Yu Min.
In the process of watching the shooting with the group, Lin Xiaoguang gradually discovered that Yu Min's directing style is novel and delicate, and he is a director who attaches great importance to the sense of the camera.
Subsequently, there was a scene where Xiaolongnu taught Yang Guo to catch sparrows.
Most people choose to shoot casually in the cage and in the wild, but Yu Min actually thought of using the shooting technique of shadow puppetry, so that Xiaolongnu and Yang Guo stood behind a transparent curtain, supplemented by orange warm light behind them.
The people present could not see the face, only Liu Qianqian's slender figure and translucent sleeves, but her tossing and dancing figure was outlined more beautifully.
With such a small plot, Lin Xiaoguang began to admire Min's ingenious photography skills and action design.
6:30 p.m.
As soon as it was dark, the crew of "Condor" quickly moved to Wuhuhuahai after dinner, preparing to shoot today's highlight - "Little Dragon Girl and Yang Guo practice the Jade Girl Heart Sutra together." ”
Compared with the previous few old versions, most of this heavy scene is performed in static pictures, although there is not much novelty, but there is not much out of the ordinary, but this time Zhang Jizhong is very bold and innovative.
"Let me tell you, the effect of two people facing each other and white smoke coming out of their backs will definitely not work, and we have to make this scene beautiful and romantic. ”
"For this part, I plan to shoot in two scenes, the first scene is arranged in the sea of five flowers, and the other scene is filmed on the grass. ”
Not long after Zhang Jizhong finished speaking, all departments of the crew were ready, Lin Xiaoguang gritted his teeth, stomped his feet, and began to take off the down jacket on his body, walked to the edge of the sea of flowers, and prepared to test the water temperature.
However, just a few seconds after taking off his clothes, Lin Xiaoguang, who was shirtless, had already begun to shiver in the cold wind.
"Xiaoguang, are you okay?" asked Liu Qianqian with concern.
In the face of Liu Qianqian's sudden condolences, Lin Xiaoguang was stunned for a while, and he didn't say a word in a trembling voice.
Liu Qianqian frowned and said, "Are you so cold that you can't speak?"
Lin Xiaoguang squeezed out a wry smile and said, "I...... I'm fine, let's shoot early and call it a day. ”
"Good. ”
At this time, the temperature around Wuhua Sea is only about 1 °C-3 °C, and when you go into the water to shoot and practice internal skills, according to the requirements of producer Zhang Jizhong and director Yu Min, Liu Qianqian can only wear a chest wrap on her upper body, of course, Liu Qianqian is a girl, in order to avoid going naked, she must also be covered with a layer of white veil, Lin Xiaoguang is a man, there is no excuse for this, even if she is hung and frozen, she can only go into battle shirtless.
