Chapter 176: Long Shot

Not only that, after Mao Weining reprimanded Xue Zhiqian, he directly dropped the headphones and walked out.

When he arrived at the door, Mao Weining looked at Lin Xiaoguang, who was also confused outside the door, and said softly: "Xiaoguang, do you have a cigarette, give me one?"

Lin Xiaoguang did as he said, hurriedly touched the pocket of the white coat, took out a box of cigarettes from it, took out one and handed it to Mao Weining.

Mao Weining held it in his mouth, and Lin Xiaoguang dogged the fire for him: "Director, you take it easy, newcomer, you have to give him a little time to get used to." ”

After taking a big puff of cigarette, Mao Weining spit out a thick smoke ring in his mouth, he didn't talk nonsense with Lin Xiaoguang, just with such a straight face, Lin Xiaoguang couldn't see any of his joy, anger and sorrow.

Lin Xiaoguang originally thought that the swearing in the first scene was just a dismount given to him by the director, and Mao Weining would always give Xue Zhiqian a chance, but he didn't expect that Mao Weining would not even be a bird Xue Zhiqian.

Mao Weining is like this, okay is good, if it doesn't work, if it doesn't work, don't find those useless excuses, what a newcomer, what is the first time to act, don't care about his, as the director of "Human Lives Matter", he wants an actor who can act, not a newcomer who has never performed in front of the camera, he has no obligation to teach Xue Zhiqian how to act.

Sure enough, in the following week, as long as there was a shot of Xue Zhiqian, Mao Wei never directed, and asked Lin Xiaoguang to do it for him.

Mao Weining's directing style, Coke broke Lin Xiaoguang, who coveted the director's throne.

You know, Lin Xiaoguang has dreamed of becoming a director, and now he has a mobile phone practice at his fingertips, where in the world can he find such a good thing?

As for Xue Zhiqian's acting skills, there is really nothing to evaluate, Lin Xiaoguang can't see any acting skills at all, he can't let go of the camera, and he always feels that this kid still has idol baggage in his heart.

Compared with the exaggerated acting skills of later generations, Xue Zhiqian at this stage seems more youthful and immature, and after being criticized by Mao Weining, he obviously has a shadow in his heart and begins to become a little inferior.

Don't talk about his age, if anyone thinks Xue Zhiqian has acting skills, they can go to watch "Farewell My Concubine", the children in it can dump him for 100 streets, which is not an exaggeration at all.

Lin Xiaoguang is not blackmailing him, but to be honest, Xue Zhiqian sings well, and his jokes are okay, but his acting skills are indeed scum.........

In fact, on the set, when he saw Xue Zhiqian for the first time, Lin Xiaoguang felt that this person still had acting talent.

Because, his eyes can speak, whether it is when he was scolded by Mao Weining, the panicked eyes, and the expression of bewilderment, or the moment of longing and pleading gaze when he looked at Lin Xiaoguang for help, it seemed extremely real.

As we all know, the eyes are the windows of the soul, if a person is delicate, then his eyes are also divine, looking at you, as if communicating with you.

Xue Zhiqian uses his eyes to express the joys, sorrows, and sorrows in his heart, as if he is telling about his inner changes.

This has nothing to do with the size of the eyes, but Xue Zhiqian's eyes are indeed quite big, such as Sun Honglei, such as Tony Leung, although the eyes are small and they are all single eyelids, it does not prevent them from acting with their eyes.

On the contrary, there are some little fresh meat in the later generations, except for using his big eyes to be in a daze and selling cuteness, he can't do anything, compared to them, Xue Zhiqian is not too bad.

And seriously, whether Xue Zhiqian has acting talent or not, Lin Xiaoguang alone has the final say, and he has to ask Li Yutong who gave him a baby.

In other words, when many rookie directors first started directing Virgo, they liked to pretend to be a master and engage in long shots.

Lin Xiaoguang is no exception, he always feels that if he doesn't try the so-called long lens, it will be a bit violent.

In Lin Xiaoguang's view, the long lens is very dazzling, and in the movie "Life Show", Huo Jianqi used the long lens to shoot many times, which made Lin Xiaoguang envious.

A long shot, the most basic thing to do, as the name suggests, is a shot down, in one go.

This is a hard requirement, and to meet this requirement, all departments of the crew need to cooperate with each other to achieve the extreme.

Where the actor's lines are read and where he goes, he must calculate his steps when he memorizes his lines, the photographer moves in position, the rail is pushed at a constant speed, the focus player should not run the focus, and the radio should not be goofed and put away the sound.

Over time, the greater the chance of these staff members making mistakes.

But that's not the best part.

The most dazzling part is the in-camera scheduling.

How many things can be explained, how many stories can be told, how much information can be explained to the audience, and the changes in composition can be controlled. That's the hardest part.

From the first floor up to the sixth floor, hey, effortless in one breath, it's a long shot.

Hit from the first floor to the sixth floor, kissed Miss Li on the first floor by the way, helped Uncle Wang to the door of the house on the second floor, helped Xiao Ming who didn't have a key on the fourth floor to pry open the door, and signed a courier for Zhao Sange on the fifth floor.

To be honest, the long shot is a test of Lin Xiaoguang's ability to schedule the scene.

What's more, "Lives Matter" is just a TV, not a movie, and the use of long shots is also different.

The long shots in Hou Hsiao-hsien's movie "City of Sadness" are basically unprecedented after the scene is scheduled.

There are also a number of long lens masters, Parma, An Zhe, etc., to judge the quality of long shots, you only need to see if you can see the scheduling and the amount of information.

After a week, Lin Xiaoguang tried several long shots, but in the end, due to limited ability and too low level, the long shots directed by Lin Xiaoguang were only "long".

During this week, Xue Zhiqian was very attentive to acting, always carefully observing the other actors in the crew, and learning from Lin Xiaoguang and studying acting hard, just to win the approval of director Mao Weining.

Although he didn't like Xue Zhiqian very much, he was just a child after all, and he was trying so hard to ask for help, Lin Xiaoguang couldn't help but feel the silhouette in his eyes.

As the saying goes, there is nothing difficult in the world, but I am afraid of those who have a heart.

That being said, it is true, but the reality is not so satisfactory, and it will even go in the opposite direction.

Finally, a week later, Mao Weining, under Lin Xiaoguang's kind persuasion, agreed to watch Xue Zhiqian's performance for the second time.

Lin Xiaoguang and Mao Weining were playing haha, trying their best to calm his emotions, and at this time, the assistant director suddenly shouted on the side: "Everyone is ready!"

Lin Xiaoguang came back to his senses and shouted, "action!"

I saw that in the ward, Xue Zhiqian took a deep breath, controlled his emotions, and began to play a patient who had mental disorders because he had stomach cancer......

Who knows, Xue Zhiqian finished the performance very hard, and in the end, in exchange for director Mao Weining pointed at him and scolded: "Neurotic! Xiaoguang, cut all his scenes." ”

Xue Zhiqian's eyes were full of tears, he glanced at Lin Xiaoguang, and then at Mao Weining, and muttered: "Director ......"

"Director, this ...... It's not good...... "Lin Xiaoguang didn't sympathize with Xue Zhiqian, he just felt a little sorry for the long shots he filmed, if he deleted all the scenes of Xue Zhiqian, wouldn't it be equivalent to deleting all the scenes he filmed?

Without waiting for Lin Xiaoguang to finish speaking, Mao Weining directly grabbed the words and said: "Xiaoguang, our play is still good, just ruined a mouse feces, it's a pity!"

Mao Weining stood up, returned to the original topic, and walked out smoking a cigarette again.

"Director, what's the matter, isn't this still filming every day? Besides, Ma Xiaoneng has eight episodes, and I've already filmed four episodes, if I delete his scenes, won't the plot be all messed up?" Lin Xiaoguang followed out and asked puzzled.

"Hey, just shoot it, how much do you think he can leave for his scenes?" asked Mao Weining.

Lin Xiaoguang shook his head.

Mao Weining stretched out a hand and said, "Two episodes at most!"

Lin Xiaoguang didn't know how to answer Mao Weining's dictatorial decision, so he was a little disappointed.

In the end, Xue Zhiqian originally had eight episodes of the scene, but Mao Weining cut out only two episodes, and he could have stayed in the group for three months, but he was ready to go home in a month.
