Chapter Twenty-Eight: The First Acting Lesson
After the morning class, the students of the acting department began to prepare to go to the cafeteria for breakfast, because most of the students were already hungry because they got up before five o'clock in the morning.
Walking on the way to the cafeteria.
"There are too many things that need to be mastered in this morning class, and I have memorized less than three of the six items that Mr. Cui said. A long-haired female classmate complained.
"Well, no, especially the thirteen breathing techniques in the third and the vocal techniques in the fourth, I feel that it is simply too difficult. The short-haired female classmate nodded and agreed with deep understanding.
Lin Yang listened to the two girls next to him complaining, and asked his roommates: "Have you memorized what Teacher Cui said in the morning class? ”
"Really?" Huang Xiaoming said with a little apprehension in his heart. In the acting class, although he also worked very hard to listen carefully, it was too difficult, worse than the two girls next to him, and he didn't understand how many things Mr. Cui talked about today.
"Really, that's still fake. Lin Yang replied with a smile, then glanced at the two roommates next to him and said, "What about you!"
The two waved their hands again and again, "No, no." ”
"Okay! What questions are you going to ask?"
Huang Xiaoming thought for a moment and said, "Teacher Cui talked about a few items in his morning class today, why do I get more confused the more I listen! ”
"Today, Mr. Cui talked about a total of six items, which are the basic skills in the lines, which every actor must learn, including breathing training, vocal skills, etc. Lin Yang explained.
"Then the thirteen breathing methods, can you explain them to me, and do you have vocal skills?" Huang Xiaoming touched his head and smiled a little embarrassedly.
Lin Yang shook his head and continued, "Okay, no problem. ”
"There are thirteen kinds of breathing methods, the first is the rapid inhalation and exhalation method......" When Lin Yang was walking on the road to explain the use of the breathing method to Huang Xiaoming, the two girls who were complaining there just now also heard Lin Yang's explanation, slowed down, and began to listen with their ears sideways.
Lin Yang actually did this on purpose, he wanted to help the two of them when he heard the two girls complaining there just now, but he was not too familiar with the two girls and could only help in this way.
Time is very fast, and after breakfast is over in the cafeteria, classes begin. There are two types of courses in the Department of Acting, one for professional and the other for public.
The professional courses are performance, lines, and body, and the common courses are mathematics, Chinese, English, and finally Ma Zhe.
And the first class is an acting class.
The class is very large, but the number of students is small, the classroom of the performance department is different from the ordinary classroom, about 120 square meters, the main entrance of the classroom is facing the corridor, and from the main entrance, there is a wide stage in front of the classroom, one step higher than the ground, on which are scattered some rectangular boxes for performing sketches, and there are blackboards on the wall. On the left and right sides are two long curtains hanging down from the roof, which are called side curtains, and when students perform a skit, they wait behind these two side curtains, and it is their turn to play from here.
Students do not sit down in the classroom as they would in other subjects, and students in the acting class do not have desks in the acting class, and during the class, the students sit in chairs and sit in two rows against the wall. The vacant space in the middle is covered with carpets, which is a stage for students to rehearse for classes. All the students added up to only 24 people. (The original 96-level twenty-three people plus Lin Yang twenty-four people.) )
After going up to the center of the podium, he looked around and said with a smile: "Ladies and gentlemen, good morning?"
All the students stood up and saluted: "Hello teacher!"
Teacher Cui pressed his hand and motioned for everyone to sit down, "Today we officially started the acting class, and before the class, I want to ask which students know what actors need to have the most." ”
What do actors need to have? handsome looks? or something. Except for a few students who knew what the teacher was talking about, the rest of the students looked at Teacher Cui with blank expressions.
Teacher Cui sighed secretly and shook his head, there is a long way to go in teaching! Although the talents are very good, it seems that most of the foundation is very poor.
"Come, Zhao Wei, tell the classmates about the things that actors need to have the most. ”
Zhao Wei stood up and said: "An actor must have 'seven stands' and 'four senses'. ”
"Okay, sit down!" Mr. Cui nodded with satisfaction.
"Then let me explain what Zhao Wei said just now, the 'seven stands' and the 'four senses', which are the different types. ”
The seven forces refer to: keen and meticulous observation, positive and stable attention, true and accurate judgment and thinking, expressive body language, rich and active imagination, keen and sincere sensibility, and sensitive and delicate adaptability. ”
The four senses are: belief and realism, humor, rhythm, image, in addition to what I said above, the quality of the actor should also include: the actor's understanding, the actor's simulation, passion, etc. ”
"And now I will explain in detail the seven forces, the keen insight, the creation of performing arts cannot be separated from the source of life. Therefore, cultivating and developing one's ability to observe life is one of the most important basic skills of an actor. It is especially important in the observation of life, especially of people. Because performing arts are the art of expressing people, actors are in their own .......
Mr. Cui frantically instilled all kinds of performance knowledge to the students, and the students at the bottom frantically took notes at the bottom, because it was the first day of the acting class, Mr. Cui only talked about some general performance knowledge system, and did not instill more theories to the students at once.
"That's the end of this class, I hope that students will learn, observe, listen, and love life after class. After speaking, Mr. Cui left a back and walked out of the classroom, and a few students went out to ask questions because they didn't understand a few performance knowledge during class. The remaining students began to sort out their notes in class, and asked the students around them if they had knowledge difficulties, which seemed extremely busy.
The students are also wailing in their hearts, how can it be completely different from the college life when they heard about it in elementary school, middle school, and high school, not to mention that the college time is very easy? The girl is there, but there is no time to soak it! This is really a great sad deed in life.
The first class of learning acting passed like this, there was no imaginary teacher to teach by hand, but only a lot of theoretical knowledge, and the students could only look forward to what was new in the acting class on Friday.
The rest of the classes on the first day are mathematics and Chinese public courses, although Lin Yang is not interested in these public courses, but because of the first day, he can't skip class, which makes Lin Yang still a little depressed.
