Chapter 23: Makeup Changes

Generally speaking, from the day the crew started filming to the overall finish, considering the problem of funding, there is no rest day in between.

Even in the extreme heat of 40 degrees Celsius, it is freezing cold below zero.

Therefore, the work pressure and labor intensity of the crew are also unimaginable to ordinary people.

If you want to get income and glory that others can't match, you naturally need to pay several times the effort and pressure of ordinary people, which is understandable.

In addition to the fact that the actors rarely rest in time, they also have a high degree of concentration, and the mental pressure is also huge.

After completing the daily shooting plan, they still have to spend an hour or two to do their homework on the scenes to be filmed tomorrow.

As the filming progressed, everyone's mental pressure was increasing, and Xu Changge was no exception.

At five o'clock in the morning, Xu Changge woke up from a state of false sleep, and he could notice that his scalp was tight, and his eyes were so sour that he wanted to cry.

As he washed, he looked at himself in the mirror, his face pale and blood radiating through his eyes—exactly what he wanted.

The cold water splashed on his face, stinging his cheeks slightly, and after drying it, he walked out the door, he was ready for the day.

Although he is not the starring actor, many times he exists as the background and white paper fan behind Xu Rongjian, and basically has to get up early every day to go to the crew to put on makeup.

Because the drama "Street Fight" will be filmed in the old city block of Hengshan Film and Television City, and there is plenty of time, Du Shan and others decided to shoot according to the timeline plan, which is also conducive to the continuation of the actors' emotions and fixed makeup.

After Tao Xiaoqing left the group, Xu Changge filmed the previous clips of giving advice in Zhongyi Hall one after another, which were all plots of Wu Li when he was alive.

After that, Xu Changge's plot is the role change after Wu Li's death - breaking with Xu Rongjian and switching to Cheng Feng......

By the time he arrived on the set, the scene was already in full swing, swinging equipment, setting up cameras, setting sets, and discussing, and almost no one was idle.

When Du Shan saw Xu Changge coming, he beckoned to him, and in recent times, no matter how big or small the matter, Du Shan habitually let Xu Changge participate in the discussion.

Xu Changge's acting skills and understanding of the script are certainly one of the reasons, but it can also be seen that Du Shan attaches great importance to Xu Changge.

Only when filming Xu Changge's scenes, Du Shan's mentality was the most relaxed, and he even went to monitor the filming with a little appreciation.

"The complexion is not very good, it doesn't matter if your body is right?" Du Shan looked at Xu Changge and asked with a smile.

Xu Changge responded with a smile: "It's not that I have a bad complexion, it's that I have a bad complexion." ”

"You, pay attention to your body, go put on makeup!" Du Shan naturally knew what Xu Changge meant.

His haggard and heavy state was deliberately created for the subsequent filming, and it is indeed rare for a young actor to have this kind of ideological awareness.

Xu Changge nodded and entered the dressing room.

Nowadays, makeup technology is superb, no matter what the state can be used to present visual effects through makeup, but Xu Changge firmly believes that only truth can move people's hearts.

Therefore, he has eaten and slept less for several days in recent times in order to achieve his physical state at this time - a gradually emaciated, desperate and violent posture after Wu Li's death.

For the makeup styling of different periods of high burning, the makeup team has already discussed and determined, so you can get started directly.

"Thank you for your hard work, teacher!" Xu Changge greeted the teacher of the makeup team with a smile.

For an artist, makeup styling is a very important part, which is related to the display of your overall image when you are on camera, and it is also related to whether the character is brilliant in style.

"It's our job," the makeup artist said with a smile, "and I want to thank you for saving us a lot of steps." ”

Xu Changge was stunned, and then understood what he was thankful for.

This makeup artist should be talking about his slightly pale tired and haggard face, which saves them a lot of effort for makeup artists, and it is more realistic and natural than the makeup painted.

"That's what I do. Xu Changge replied with a smile.

The makeup artist didn't expect Xu Changge to answer like this, although the actor has the obligation to cooperate with the makeup team to do a good job of setting the makeup, but it is rare to be conscientious to this extent.

"I would venture to ask, how did you get to this level?" the makeup artist couldn't help but ask looking at Xu Changge's chapped and pale lips.

"Sleep less, eat less!" Xu Changge was careless, as if he was talking about trivial things.

The makeup artist admired, Xu Changge said that it was light, but as a makeup artist, he knew how hard it was to achieve this effect.

It's no wonder that everyone in the crew praised his acting skills, and sure enough, everyone's success is not accidental.

The makeup artist stopped talking, but smeared Xu Changge's face more carefully - he couldn't be sorry for Xu Changge's intentions and efforts.

And Xu Changge also closed his eyes, in order to achieve better shooting results, he also entered the high-burning spiritual world......

Time passed, and the makeup artist put down the makeup pen in his hand, and couldn't help but feel a sense of amazement in his heart.

He could think that it would be a good effect to put makeup on Xu Changge's temperament and demeanor, but he didn't expect that it would reach this level after all of it was done.

Especially the moment Xu Changge's closed eyes opened, the luster in his eyes that was sharp enough to penetrate people's hearts made him suspect that he was a different person, and it was like two people.

"This makeup ...... It's really good!" the makeup artist said with a smile.

Xu Changge's inner eye corners are deep, the eyes are slightly round, the outer eye corners are slender, and the tails of the eyes are slightly upturned, which is naturally a pair of extremely attractive eyes in a normal state.

But in a tired and haggard state, his eyelids were slightly puffy, and his left eyelid had become a triple eyelid, and in the blink of an eye, the fierce light in his eyes always made people shudder!

But even so, Xu Changge was still not very satisfied with his appearance at this time.

He looked intently at himself in the mirror and saw that the problem was there—his eyebrows.

His eyebrows are thick and black, slightly raised, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as a sword eyebrow, but it does not conform to the high-burning state in the play, violent and fierce.

"Teacher, shave your eyebrows and draw them again......" Xu Changge said softly.

"What?" the makeup artist was stunned for a moment, thinking that she had misheard.

"Teacher, I think this eyebrow spoils the overall feeling, so I want to shave and redraw. Xu Changge repeated.

"This ......," the makeup artist hesitated.

Naturally, the makeup artist also noticed the eyebrow problem, but he felt that it was better to ask the actor to shave his eyebrows for a supporting role.

didn't expect Xu Changge to make this request himself......

This is good enough, is it necessary to toss yourself for a supporting role?

However, seeing Xu Changge's firm and persistent eyes, he somewhat understood.

The young man in front of him...... Not a star, but a real actor.

"Okay......" he nodded solemnly and said softly.
