Chapter 83: Blend in the Characters

What is acting, this is probably a question that actors spend a lifetime exploring. In order to explore this problem, different performance factions and different performance systems have been derived.

Everyone's understanding of performance is different, and even some performances can only be understood, not spoken, relying on personal comprehension, but most of the performances are traceable, after all, only some gods can do it without a trace.

Acting is about status, whether an actor can enter the play is a very critical thing, after filming Zhou Bai's first medium shot, Zhang Yimou was very surprised, Zhou Bai is in a good state and has already entered the play.

Take the scene just now, Zhou Bai's performance is not very profound, but the effect of Zhou Bai's performance is very natural, there is no trace of showing off his skills, he is the teacher who has just been sent from the city to the countryside, natural, relaxed, peaceful, fits the image of the character, and is appropriate everywhere.

Hou Yong was pleasantly surprised, Zhou Bai's performance was very smooth and natural, he found that the shooting just now was very easy, Zhou Bai was very sensitive to the camera, as a newcomer, this is too rare.

"Lao Zhang, are all the students of Chinese opera so wicked these years?" Hou Yong asked curiously, he has worked with a lot of big directors and actors, this is the second time he has cooperated with Lao Mouzi, and the movie he cooperated with before is called "No One is Missing".

Hou Yong's words are inspired by feelings, Zhang Ziyi looks good enough, she feels very good under the camera, that kind of aura makes Hou Yong admire, Hou Yong feels that this is a rare seedling in Chinese opera for ten years, but for Zhou Bai's performance, he was even more surprised.

"Chinese opera is going to produce a group of good actors, this kid is the most special one among them, with a very good body and profound skills, if I hadn't gone to watch the drama on a whim that day, I would have missed it. Lao Mouzi said with emotion, talking about performances, there are a little more words.

"I said how did you reject the person who recommended the great review, I still have some say in the lens, I found that it was really comfortable to shoot him, with a little green and elegant temperament, it was comfortable to stand there and look at it, and he had a good sense of the lens, and he would take the initiative to cooperate with my shooting, which is rare. Hou Yong patted Lao Mouzi on the shoulder and said, although Zhang Weiping and Lao Mouzi have behaved normally in the past few days, Hou Yong understands that Zhang Weiping still has some small bumps in his heart, mainly because Lao Mouzi was quite satisfied with the person recommended by Zhang Weiping at the beginning, but in the end he still refused.

Lao Mouzi and Zhang Weiping's ten-year friendship will not turn his face because of a role, and Lao Mouzi is not the kind of person who is particularly good at words, and he didn't explain much, just said that Zhou Bai was suitable, which made Zhang Weiping a little angry.

Now that Hou Yong understands Lao Mouzi's thoughts, it is really a matter of appropriateness, one is to be able to play Luo Changyu, and the other is Luo Changyu, the difference is big.

As long as he continues to work hard, there will be a place for him in the entertainment industry in the future. Zhang Yimou said thoughtfully, not knowing what he was thinking at the moment.

Zhou Bai didn't communicate with Lao Mouzi after performing the camera, now his whole state is very strange, he doesn't want to destroy this feeling, the feeling of being one with the character is special.

It can be said that because of the preparation for two months, Zhou Bai has thoroughly understood the role of Luo Changyu, and has done detailed research on the character's psychological state, living environment, action habits and even the eyes of people, and has completely understood and integrated into this role.

Movie acting is a hard thing, even if Zhou Bai is in a good state, it is difficult for him to ensure the state of other people, everything depends on grinding, especially the performance of extras, it is really a matter of taking care of the head and tail when filming, either you make a mistake or he makes a mistake, and Lao Mouzi is about to lose his temper.

Next is the scene of building a school, in the original history, the scenes of "My Father and Mother" are almost all focused on Zhao Di, mainly to reflect the budding heart of a girl, the main plot is that Luo Changyu and the villagers of Sanhetun built a school together, Zhao Di changed the law to send Luo Changyu delicious food, I only hope that Luo Changyu can eat the food she sent that day.

The drama Lao Mouzi who built the school really built a school on that vacant land, from laying the foundation to building the school, there are many steps, but the villagers have done almost the work in the early stage, and the rest is used during filming.

When Lao Mouzi's camera was aimed below, Zhou Bai was really working with the villagers, moving bricks and handing wood, he had forgotten the camera, Luo Changyu worked like this.

The drama of building a school is not fast or slow, Zhang Ziyi's state is getting better and better, the scene between her and Mrs. Li Bing, Zhou Bai went to observe it, the old lady's performance shows no traces, it is very stable, and it is worthy of being an old drama bone trained on the stage of human art.

In the past few days, Zhou Bai has become familiar with several working fellows, they are really called Mr. Zhou Bailuo, Zhou Bai has no objection, he chats and works with the fellows, and by the way, he learns the Hebei dialect of these people.

Lao Mouzi didn't know what was wrong, so he deliberately took some shots of Zhou Bai working, eating, Zhou Bai didn't care, in his estimation, these shots should be deleted, and the relaxation of his mentality did not regard it as a performance, which was very relaxed.

The school has been built, and Zhang Ziyi's early scenes have been filmed almost completely, and more than half a month has actually passed in a flash, and the most important scenes left are the scenes where Luo Changyu met Zhao Di for the first time, and the scenes where he went to Zhao Di's house for dinner.

After the school was built, it meant that Luo Changyu was going to teach the students, although the scene of the class was not filmed, but there were a lot of scenes outside the school, and more than 20 children found by Lao Mouzi asked Zhou Bai to teach them a lesson, and also made up a decent textbook.

There is no difficulty for Zhou Bai to teach children, his lines are the best in the 96 acting class, his voice is warm and powerful, and he is also very good to read.

In class, Zhou Bai first wrote "literacy songs" on the blackboard, and then said: "Reading and literacy...... Read!"

The children in the class were also very cooperative, chanting together: "Read and read!"

Then Zhou Bai continued: "How long and insightful...... Read!"

"What a long experience!" the children's voices were crisp, and the number of people was large, and the voices also spread outside the classroom.

"If you can write, you can count...... Read!"

"If you can write, you can count!"

"It's a good thing...... Read!"

"That's a good thing!"

Zhou Bai's voice was clear and thick, and many children said it together, it was still very loud, almost shouting, but Zhou Bai's voice was still clear and would not be drowned.

After reading it again, reading it again, this is the shot of the movie, and the real shooting is definitely not just these few times, even if the shooting is relatively smooth, it took almost a day to finish.

As soon as the end of class was announced, the students ran out of the classroom.

As soon as the students came out, the courtyard immediately became chaotic.

Zhou Bai came out and was stunned for a moment, there were so many people in the courtyard, and soon Zhou Bai saw Zhang Ziyi in the crowd, his gaze had stayed on Zhang Ziyi's face for a moment, this time, Zhang Ziyi lowered his head.

There was a commotion in the yard, and no one noticed this.

The camera keenly captures this delicate moment, and there is a slightly sweet smell that seems to fill the air.
