Chapter 1021: Mediocre is not enough
In the high-level conference room of the hotel, the main creators of the crew sat at the table, looking at the screenshots of the comments flashing on the big screen at the far end.
"What I see now are comments on some websites in the United States, and the number is okay, but after removing the number of Haomen fans, the overall number of comments is not much, fortunately, everyone is still satisfied with the character makeup photos. Let me read a few of them. โ
"Well, this comment said that there are quite expectations for the character setting of the character, although he is a Chinese actor, he is willing to believe in the vision of MOUSE, and the actors he selected will definitely have a better performance than the makeup photo. โ
"It is said that this is a group of very popular actors in China, acting skills should not be a problem, I think I should adapt to different skin tones and different languages, the first time I look forward to foreign film and television dramas, I feel quite interesting. โ
"I'm curious why MOUSE must insist that it's all Chinese content, so many unsolved mysteries in the world, so many legends that can be created, even if it's some stories that are rotten by everyone, I also believe that he can play new tricks, and when I see a group of Chinese actors, I'm really not used to it, even if you mix Chinese and Western, don't you know how to take care of our feelings?"
"I'm looking forward to Mouse's work. โ
The whole conference room was silent, they were all clear-eyed people, they saw it really, in the final analysis, it was the situation that everyone was worried about at the beginning, foreign audiences still only recognized Chen Hao alone, they were called stars in China, and they would be worried that there were too many stars to make TV series with several stars, but abroad, the blow to their achievements was so intuitive, not to ignore them, but to really not know them.
After reading the comments of two media in succession, Chen Hao tapped the table with his fingers: " Okay, let's see this, it's the same, all the doubts, in the end it depends on the work to speak, starting tomorrow, everyone enters the official shooting state, there is no scene, first adapt to the life of the desert island here, after all the scenes are filmed, we turn back to Yanjing to shoot indoor scenes, I want to say that outdoor scenes may be the easiest and most comfortable, indoors, I don't worry about whether you can perform well, I am worried that your body can not bear it. โ
Except for Uncle Ge's role, because of his body, there are special arrangements and adjustments every day, and everyone else is treated equally, once the state of a drama maniac enters, Chen Hao will show an image that everyone thinks is a devil, and he is not grumpy when filming, but the aura he releases is enough to make everyone dare not slack off.
On the first day of filming the first scene, Sun Li had a general performance, I can't say it's bad, it's just very free, her role is not a vase, and you can't use words to express what kind of state she is in the corner that others can't see, everything is presented in the picture, you are free like a background curtain, who will look at you, not look at you, and in the end, when your role is reversed, it will be extraordinarily abrupt, and the audience also lacks the excessive process in their hearts, they will feel extraordinarily uncomfortable, and it is difficult to find a refreshing feeling that I have long feltใ
Chen Hao didn't say anything, from the people who set up the scene to the large group scene, and then to all the staff, in fact, there was one person in a group scene who didn't perform very well, it was not worth coming once, and Sun Li was not the absolute protagonist.
He didn't care about that, he just waved his hand: "Re-set, re-position, shoot again." โ
This sentence brought great pressure to Sun Li, and she was extremely proud that she was hit by someone in the field she was good at, her face was ugly and she put it away for the first time, inside her sleeves, clenched her fists, Deng Chao came to her shoulders and explained to her in a low voice: "Haozi is such a person, you don't know, it's not right about things and people, if he doesn't play well, he will have this attitude." โ
Sun Li nodded: "I understand, it's just that I can't pass this level, you say, is this the gap between us and him, I still haven't fully realized how valuable this scene is to be remade?"
Deng Chao didn't have to answer, he himself felt the same way, how long Chen Hao's brain circuit was, and now they can't fully understand it, but when the reason for the reshoot is taken out, you have to be convinced, introspect yourself, as Sun Li said, we are not focused enough, there are no details to a small place to be 100% focused, it seems to be an indifferent shot, but when ten or twenty similar shots are piled up, it is the gap.
Chen Hao handed a circle of cigarettes to the actors at the scene when the crew went to reply to the scene just now, not wanting to explain anything else, but just telling everyone a detail that they didn't notice.
"This film, it is not easy to communicate well with the United States, the main actors are registered in the Hollywood Actors Guild as actors, it seems nothing, our level of production, if it is a movie, there will be no room for flexibility, there is no need to talk about it, it is definitely impossible to negotiate, everyone has to register, all the shooting must be filmed in accordance with the requirements of the side, there is nothing else, the most terrible point is the use of extras. โ
"In order to protect privacy, in order to protect all kinds of copyrights, and to establish the authority of legal provisions, everyone in Hollywood knows that any group performance that appears in the camera, even if it is a long shot gliding through the banquet hall with one or two hundred people, the people who appear in it must all be registered actors, not on-site staff or onlookers who are willing to help; It was also difficult for the crew to register all the group performances with the Hollywood Screen Actors Guild, so the crew invited a lot of Chinese actors to make cameos, reaching one-third of the group performances we used, and the matter was finally discussed. โ
After Chen Hao's words were finished, everyone suddenly realized some differences in today's shooting, and they felt that something was wrong, but they didn't find the root of the problem.
It's all a group drama, the plane has a problem and makes a forced landing, which is equivalent to a big accident, not everyone on the plane is dead, there are some dead people, and there are also a considerable number of group performances.
When you see the footage you shoot, you know what is wrong?
What's wrong is that the group performances close to the camera, all of them are very professional, not at all like the perfunctory things that everyone shoots on weekdays without even the side faces, Chen Hao also buried such a hole for everyone in advance, he clearly knows that there will be a time when it will be useful.
In addition to the normal camera position, there are also fixed cameras, which secretly record the pictures outside the normal camera position, those very wide-angle pictures, the pictures of non-main actors in the center of the picture, and also record the real state of many group actors in this performance.
In order to get closer to the filming of film and television dramas, they would rather be the staff of the crew to accumulate experience and participate in the production of film and television dramas, and try to play some roles in some small opportunities.
The proportion of these people is a lot worse than the proportion of the number of Chinese actors registered in the actors' union from Hollywood, when the group performance suddenly has a super high level of performance, although the main actors are not on them, they still feel that something is obviously wrong, just now there is Sun Li's matter, everyone's attention did not turn to this, now when they turn around, and then look at the picture in the monitor, they are all thoughtful and no longer speak, no wonder Chen Hao has such a big reaction after seeing the monitor just now.
When mediocrity is hidden in the majority, it is occasionally ignored, and when what you think is mediocre is suddenly pushed to a lower level among more people, mediocrity becomes bad. Sun Li's performance just now seemed very mediocre in the group performance, and after the overall picture came out, as a director, he had his own overall view of the plot direction of the characters, and he couldn't tolerate such a picture.
Replaced by ordinary domestic boutique TV series, this one must have passed, replaced by those ordinary TV series, this one director will shout good, but in "Lost", mediocrity is not allowed, all their actors are ready to be magnified in every detail, I still didn't expect it to be magnified to such an extent - the group performance can come to the starring role to bring great pressure, and these people present have almost never had a similar feeling.
"Director, I'm ready. โ
Sun Li and Chen Hao have also known each other for a long time, when Chen Hao first debuted, he entered the relationship between Li Chen and Fan Bingbing, who entered the running man, and after getting acquainted with each other in the next few issues, he also visited Sun Li and Deng Chao's house as a guest in the magic capital.
At that time, the eldest brother and sister, and now the title of super brother and sister, did not have the slightest change in attitude, but as Sun Li, facing Chen Hao, this is the third change of attitude, and what the director shouted is really convincing.
Chen Hao is very popular, the two sides meet again, and they have to listen to his direction when chatting with each other, which is the first change in relationship attitude;
This is the third time, Sun Li has already recognized in her heart that she wants to follow this director who is much younger than herself, really learn something, break the barrier of her current performance, and go to the next level.
And not just her?
