The fourth episode has excellent acting

After graduating from Huaxia Drama Academy, Xu Xinhui's acting career was very smooth, and just after graduation, he played an important supporting role in the martial arts movie "Zhongshan Wind and Rain" directed by Wang Jibin. Immediately afterwards, he played one of the three male protagonists in the art film "Flying Boy" directed by Qin Youchuan. Relying on the excellent acting skills honed in drama performances, coupled with a high understanding of film performance, his acting skills have always been among the best among the younger generation of film actors.

Last year, Zhang Xingping's film "Midsummer Afternoon Love", Xu Xinhui played the sole leading actor in a movie for the first time, although because the movie was mainly based on the heroine's perspective, he was not nominated for Best Actor at the Yanhuang Film Festival, but his acting skills were praised by many critics.

This time he accepted the invitation of director Zhang Xingping to star in the TV series "Tomorrow's Star", firstly, to repay Zhang Xingping's kindness and to establish a good relationship with Huimin Film and Television Company by the way; second, he has been making continuous film appointments in the past few years, one movie after another, and he has not had a good rest, so he should take a vacation when he takes advantage of this opportunity to shoot a TV series.

No matter how high Director Zhang Xingping's requirements are, this is still a TV series after all, and the details of the actors' performances will not be too strict, for Xu Xinhui, who has a very solid acting foundation, filming a TV series is really no different from taking a vacation. is basically the same as his plan in advance, the crew has been staying in Wuzhou Film and Television Base for a week, and he has already shot more than a dozen shots, Zhang Xingping is still very satisfied with his performance, and his shots basically don't need to be NG once.

But he didn't expect that the first shot would go wrong this morning. In fact, his performance is still quite good, and he has already shown a young man who has become a star, his cold and arrogant attitude when he first entered the film school and his disdain for the girls around him, which is very vivid. Of course, because he is filming a TV series, Xu Xinhui did not show the skills of movie performance, he is basically using external acting skills to shape the characters, and he is not too deep into the play, after all, the inner shaping of the male protagonist of this idol drama is really not as important as being handsome.

Zhang Xingping has been on this lens four or five times, and he did not care about Xu Xinhui's inner thoughts, but repeatedly replayed the first shot clip he had just shot this morning on the viewfinder. Xu Xinhui's performance is as stable as ever, which is very in line with the personality and characteristics of the male protagonist in the play, although it still has the ritualized movements and slightly exaggerated expressions of drama actors, it has to be said that among the young generation of domestic actors, this is already the top acting skills.

And from the analysis of the light, composition, and scenery of the lens, there is no problem with this scene. Except for the exaggerated expressions of several young actresses who play female college students, the whole scene is harmonious. Their exaggerated performances are actually Zhang Xingping's own requirements, the dramatic tension of idol dramas is very small, and the characters can only play some small tricks, which is also in line with the imagination of this scene in his mind. So what went wrong?

Rubbing his nose, this is the habit that perennial rhinitis brought to Zhang Xingping, he watched the playback again, this time he stripped off the male protagonist, stripped off the entire set, and stripped off those female college students, which suddenly made him see something wrong.

The little dragon who was in charge of receiving the male protagonist at the reception of the freshman was a little strange.

This character was originally designed to set off the charm of the male protagonist, so his clothes, hairstyle, and decorative glasses are all designed to be very rustic, and there are very few lines.

The first line is what he said when he first met the actor, "Classmate, you are a freshman this year, come to me to go through the admission procedures".

The second line is when he was squeezed aside by a group of girls, saying "Big stars are NB". No matter who plays such a role, it is impossible to be brilliant, and it can be said that it is more than a trick. But what kind of role is it, I was stunned to let this young man who didn't know where he came from come to live.

In a short period of the scene of the reception of freshmen, Peng Yichen really and naturally showed the concern of a senior in the directing department of the film academy who cares about the freshmen by constantly touching the frames of his glasses, speaking in a slow and logical tone, the panic of taking the freshman reception manual, the dazedness of being squeezed aside by the female students, the disdain of discovering the identity of the male protagonist, and the pity of looking back at the girl when he turns his head and walks away. The disdain for the phenomenon of celebrity enrollment and the mixed feelings of jealousy for beautiful girls showing their admiration for other boys.

It can be said that in this short performance, Peng Yichen's performance almost crushed Xu Xinhui, Zhang Xingping always felt that the reason why there was a problem with the shooting picture was that Peng Yichen's aura completely overwhelmed the actor played by Xu Xinhui, and the audience would feel that Peng Yichen was the central character when watching this scene, but ignored the performance of the male protagonist, which must have destroyed the entire plot setting.

Zhang Xingping didn't see the problem at first glance because Peng Yichen's performance was too natural and real, and he was naturally brought into the plot by Peng Yichen when he watched this scene, until he finally stripped off other factors, and found that the key to the problem was that the acting skills of a small actor crushed the protagonist.

Yes, it is crushing, as an old actor with more than 20 years of acting experience, Peng Yichen said, "It's not that he looks down on a certain actor of Bluestar Huaxia, but that all the actors of Lanxing Huaxia are garbage in his eyes." ”

Of course, when Peng Yichen thought about this sentence in his heart, it was just to vent the excitement in his heart. Blue Star Huaxia also has many talented actors, and his acting talent decided to dump him ten streets, he just occupies the advantage of the earth's performing arts development that is more advanced than Blue Star for at least one era.

After entering modern times, with the development of movies and TV series, the actors of Bluestar Huaxia have been looking for breakthroughs, no matter how much stage and drama actors look down on film and television actors, and they think that only stage drama performances can be regarded as real art, and they cannot deny that only film performances are the most socially influential and have the highest fame income. Even TV drama actors can't compare to movie actors, let alone stage plays and drama actors that are barely watched by many people.

However, film is an art that requires a high degree of authenticity in fictional scenes, and with the development of science and technology, photography, sets, and lighting are getting closer and closer to reality, and only the performance is still standing still, which is extremely unfavorable to the development of the actor industry. Many famous Chinese actors have gone to the United States to study acting and actively participate in Hollywood film production, because although Hollywood performances are more mature, they still have not formed a mature system, resulting in only a few actors with rich acting experience and strong acting talent in China until now. The vast majority of Chinese actors' understanding of the authenticity of their performances and how their performances fit the natural reactions of real-life characters is still at the level of the 60s or so on earth.

Peng Yichen is different from the actors of Lanxing Huaxia, although because the sense of subjectivity is too strong, he has not been able to rely on the method of entering the play and emotional substitution to perform. Instead, through a lot of observation, you can learn the external expressions and movements of various characters, and you can also perform the drama characters in a real and natural way. And although he himself has an average acting talent, he has seen too many performances of talented performing artists of the experiential school and method school, such as Marlon Brando, Al Pacino, Chow Yun-fat, Leung Ka-fai, Jiang Wen, Ge You, Li Xuejian and other Chinese and foreign performance masters.

If in his previous life, because Peng Yichen's performance was too one-sided, he did not enter the hearts of the characters, and he had no spirituality in his performance, so he could only become an actor who perfectly fulfilled the director's requirements, and in the eyes of the audience, he had no personal charm at all, which is also the main reason why Peng Yichen's acting skills could not improve.

But when it comes to the showbiz of Bluestar Huaxia, Peng Yichen's performance does have a shocking effect. In his supporting career of more than 20 years in his last life, he has seen too many talented performing artists of the methodology school, such as Marlon Brando, Al Pacino, Chow Yun-fat, Leung Ka-fai, Jiang Wen, Ge You, Li Xuejian and other Chinese and foreign performance masters.

In addition, his appearance is basically insulated from the protagonist, and most of the characters are playing ordinary small people in the market, forming his performance to be extremely down-to-earth, and he walks in a natural and real style. It can be said that his performance alone far surpasses all Chinese actors of the same period in terms of authenticity.

For the Blue Star Huaxia entertainment industry, which is still in the transition from the traditional performance system to the modern performance system, his performance method is a performance that transcends an entire era. Maybe he is still far behind the acting masters of Blue Star, but compared with ordinary actors, his performance seems to be much more than that.

Although the reason has been found, Zhang Xingping doesn't know what to do? If he is just a TV series director, this problem is easy to solve, just let that actor get out, no matter how good the supporting role is, it can't rob the protagonist's scene, compared to destroying the balance of the whole shot, kicking a special actor out is obviously the easiest way

Zhang Xingping is not an ordinary TV drama director, he is a film director, or the kind of film director who almost won the Best Director Award at the Huaxia Yanhuang Film Festival, an actor is so good that he steals the protagonist's play, not only will he not be angry, but he also feels that his luck is really good, he just had a headache in the play and couldn't find the right person to play the important role in the play, this God sent one to himself.

beckoned, called the assistant director Xu Dayong over, Zhang Xingping handed over the script of the important supporting role: "Lao Xu, if you give this script to that young man, let him play the role of Zhao Wenbin, put on makeup and clothes, and the scene does not need to be changed, we will directly shoot Xue Mingxuan and Zhao Wenbin meeting for the first time at the gate of the Film and Television Academy, and rushing to let Chen Yuxin join their respective troupes." ”

Assistant director Xu Dayong listened to the director's words, his pupils shrank twice, Zhao Wenbin is the absolute No. 1 villain in "Rising Star", of course, there will not really be that heinous villain in this kind of campus youth idol drama, Zhao Wenbin is just the biggest rival of the protagonist Xue Mingxuan in the TV series. In addition to the annoying fact that this character grabs the heroine with the male protagonist every time, the character design in other aspects is more pleasing.

The rich second generation was born, loves stage plays and dramas, entered the film academy a year earlier than the male lead, and is a great talent in the school. Before the actor entered the school, he won the championship of the college's annual college student drama competition with the drama "Blue Sky" written by himself.

But because the heroine didn't like his rich son's style, she fell in love with Xue Mingxuan, a freshman she just met. So I hate the actor very much, and I can't get along with the hero at every opportunity, and finally lost to the actor in the drama contest "Snowy Night", which slowly exited in the BGM background music that wished the hero and heroine happiness. can be the design of this character is specially used to create antagonistic emotions with the male protagonist, and is the key character in the plot of the entire TV series to promote and increase the dramatic tension of the plot, and the character's performance has a lot of room to play. But it is precisely because this character is very important that the acting skills of the cosplayer are very important.

Xu Dayong suppressed the surprise in his heart, turned his head to look at Peng Yichen, who was not good-looking, and thought: From the group performance Xiaolong, he has been directly promoted to a supporting role that is almost equivalent to the second male lead, is this young man Lao Zhang's relative?

Although he was surprised, Xu Dayong didn't show anything on the surface, and quickly pulled Peng Yichen back to the dressing room, and arranged makeup artists and stylists to put on makeup and change clothes for him. Stuffed the script into Peng Yichen's hand and said: Act well.

turned his head to arrange the props team, quickly changed the props used for filming, and by the way, he told the heroine Li Bingyan about the situation, and asked her to prepare for the following scene as soon as possible. Fortunately, there will be a scene of the heroine in the next scene, so Li Bingyan has been waiting outside the filming venue. Although she didn't understand why the director suddenly wanted to make a scene that was originally planned to be filmed in 2 or 3 days, she knew that she was still a junior at Kyoto Film Academy, and she had no qualifications or fame in the film industry.

When Huimin Film and Television selected actors in several acting colleges, she was able to choose her as the heroine, because she was pure and cute, and her student spirit was very strong, which was more in line with the character setting of the heroine of "Tomorrow's Star". Otherwise, with her fame and acting skills, it is impossible to play the heroine in the play directed by Zhang Xingping, so she cherishes this opportunity very much and does not dare to question the director's requirements at all. didn't wait for Xu Dayong to go away, she quickly took out the script and prepared to wait for the lines of the heroine of this scene.

Peng Yichen, who was taken all the way to the dressing room by the assistant director, was still stunned at this time, the reason why he was stunned was not that the director suddenly asked him to play such an important supporting role in the TV series, after all, it was not unheard of in the past to shoot three film and television dramas at the same time in the field of three crews a month, and he could cope with it when he got the script and started filming immediately, and soon he still had time to make up and change clothes to prepare the script!

What surprised him the most was that at the moment when Xu Dayong stuffed the script into his hand, a wonderful change occurred that caught him off guard......
