Chapter Seventy-Two: Fragment Teaching

It has been two days since Xiao Wu has been completed, and Lin Yang took the train back to Beijing on the second day of the crew's completion, and when he went to morning class with his classmates on the third day, he couldn't help but cause some commotion, among which it seems that Lin Yang's eyes are also more complicated, with more feelings of envy, jealousy and hatred, of course, what I didn't expect is that because of Lin Yang's return, the students' enthusiasm for performance has increased a lot, and they expect to shoot a drama during school like Lin Yang.

And after Lin Yang got out of the morning class, he couldn't help but ask Mr. Cui to call him to the office to interrogate and check whether he had been filming outside recently, and there was no teacher's supervision to slack off the acting class, and the result was naturally quite satisfactory to Mr. Cui.

In the days that followed, Lin Yang lived a relatively peaceful life, attending classes during the day and rehearsing in the afternoon.

The teaching methods in the first half of the freshman year and the second half of the semester are destined to be slightly different, and they have also entered the stage of fragment teaching, and the most important thing in fragment teaching is to allow students to better perform the same type of plays, so that the next time they encounter the same type of plays, they will have some reference role, so that students will be better when they perform the same type of plays in the future.

The clip is also the first stage for students to learn to shape the role, and the clip teaching also plays a role in connecting the previous and the next, and also determines whether the students can transition from the 'I play me' in the sketch stage to the 'I play him' in the clip stage. At the same time, the clip is also the beginning of the actor's image building. At this time, the image shaping is only a partial image, not a complete one. This stage also lays a solid foundation for the complete characters of the later one-act plays and Daiki.

And Mr. Cui's selection is mainly from dramas, novels, film and television dramas and other repertoire to choose classics, scene concentration, time is relatively concentrated, characters are more prominent, contradictions and conflicts are sharp, and the plot development is wonderful.

The fragment teaching is very simple, that is, Mr. Cui selects the scripts of some classic dramas, novels, film and television drama adaptations, and operas to send out to the students, and then arranges different roles for each student to perform. And these roles are arranged by Mr. Cui's family according to the characteristics and shortcomings of each student.

And Lin Yang was arranged by Mr. Cui to play a fragment in the classic drama "Thunderstorm", playing Zhou Chong, and his fellow members include Yan Danchen as Sifeng, and Guo Xiaodong as Lu Gui, the father of Sifeng.

Zhao Wei, who made Lin Yang pay more attention, was arranged by Mr. Cui to play the tiger girl in the classic drama "Camel Xiangzi", and his fellow group member was Chen Kun is Xiangzi.

........

After a few minutes, Mr. Cui finished assigning roles and began to help the students explain how to analyze the script and analyze the characters. Analyzing the script and characters can be roughly divided into the following steps, the first step is to understand the script. To understand the script is not only to understand the role you want to play, but to analyze the theme of the whole play as a whole. Contradictions. A series of effective understandings and analyses are carried out throughout the movement, the background of the era, and the meaning of the performance.

And to mention the key point in this, some people often mistakenly think that it is the director's job to analyze the script from the whole play, but they ignore that only by correctly understanding the whole play can we correctly show the audience a vivid and distinctive character image. ”

Teacher Cui looked around at the students below, and said loudly in an accentuated tone. The students nodded seriously when they heard Mr. Cui say this, and some students even wrote down Mr. Cui's words in a notebook.

"The second step is to understand the prescribed situation, to know how to say the words of the character you want to perform, what attitude to say and what method to perform. First of all, you have to figure out the context in which the plot is spoken, which means that you first need to know what time, place, environment and background you need to know in order to better play the character. However, the prescribed scenarios are not set in stone, so you have a lot of flexibility when you want to perform. ”

"The third step is to find out the reasons and characters that make up the character image and analyze, which has the following two points, the first point is that the image that makes up the character is not that you read the script once or twice, get some sporadic impressions and concepts, and you can grasp it by piecing it together. Instead, the performance should be faithful to the materials provided by the script, specifically analyzing the character's age, occupation, identity, family environment, social experience, attitude towards life, and spiritual temperament. Ideological realm, life pursuits, hobbies, living habits, etc.! With these you will be able to make a detailed analysis of your character. ”

"The second point is that the analysis of characters is to analyze the personality from the language of the characters, to grasp the character from the actions of the characters, and to think about the character from the hints of the script. ”

"The fourth step is to set the tone, and what is the tone, the tone refers to the tone given to the character by the mood of the script itself, the tone when the lines are spoken, the development of the plot, the character's personality, etc. These are all in harmony with each other, and when we are working on the script, we must determine these factors to set the tone of the line, because he is the first voice that the actor comes into contact with when he is performing, so that the audience knows your identity, personality, age, etc. ”

"The fifth step is the accent, the accent plays a very key role in the lines, I believe I don't say every sentence of yours, if the accent is different, the meaning is different. If you want to accurately find the position of the accent, that is, the central word, you need to make some full understanding of the background and content of the script, accurately understand the lines to be expressed, and convert the line language spoken by the characters in the play into the words you want to give to the characters. ”

The sixth step of intonation is a rendering tool that wants to achieve the goal through words and actions in the situation specified by the characters in the play, and the intonation is also a great help to the character shaping of the characters in the play, and it is also an expression of the characters' distinct attitudes, strong desires, and deep thoughts and feelings. ”

"The seventh step is rhythm, mastering the rhythm of a play is something that should be paid attention to when studying the script, and if it should be fast, it will be slow. When it should be slow, it is fast, which will be a very big test of the viewing degree of the whole play, and this is also a demonstration of performance skills. ”

"The eighth step, one refers to the pause in the line, and the second refers to the pause when performing on stage, and the pause is very simple to look at, but it is very difficult to do. ”

"The ninth step is the cohesion of the plot, and the plot in the script progresses. Emotional outbursts often erupt on the connection! The connection should be rigid and soft, and it is quite difficult to grasp. ”

"The tenth and final step is the subtext, the subtext of the performance, and the underlying meaning of the discourse, so the ..... when studying the script."

"Okay, that's all for you to pay attention to when you are going to study the script, and I hope to see your excellent performance in the next acting class. After speaking, Mr. Cui left the classroom, leaving a group of students wailing all over the field, but after all, the students experienced the harsh test of the last semester, so they only wailed for less than half a minute and began to discuss with their own team members.

And Lin Yang felt very inspired by Mr. Cui's lecture, if he heard Mr. Cui's words before playing Xiao Wu, he estimated that he would better interpret Xiao Wu's role. I suddenly understood in my heart, no wonder that under normal circumstances, only sophomores are qualified to take on the show!
