Chapter 1174: Current Shortcomings

After discussing many topics related to movies with the old dean in the academy, Yang Ming has been thinking deeply about every word the old dean said in the depths of his mind.

My family knows my own business.

Yang Ming knew that the reason why he had today's achievements was entirely based on the memories of his previous life.

For this, he does not deny it, nor does he say that hypocrisy must make a work that is truly his original.

Who doesn't like to play a single machine to abuse the boss with a cheat? Who doesn't want to be a RMB player with the best equipment when playing online games.

He was just an ordinary person in his previous life, although he was a third-tier star, he was still an ordinary citizen in his bones, and he would not deliberately forget the help of the memory of his past life in this life for the sake of so-called spiritual purity, and blame himself for these achievements.

If you use it, you use it, with innate advantages, he is not hypocritical or pretentious.

It's like playing a game, how cool it is.

Naturally, there is no guilt.

It's just that since he has chosen the film industry in this life, he definitely wants to go further.

Sooner or later, the memories of his previous life will be used up, and then he will not be able to disappear at that time. Say goodbye to the entertainment industry, otherwise he will definitely come up with his own works.

In order for his reputation to live up to his reputation forever, then his level of ability must reach a certain level.

Therefore, even though he is not worried about filming now, he still maintains the mentality of learning, even if there is only a little progress, he is very satisfied.

He believed that he would definitely grow to the strength of enough to maintain his reputation on the day when the memories of his previous life ran out.

Although he won the Golden Dragon Award for Best Actor this time, it does not mean that Yang Ming's acting skills have reached the point of being self-contained and at the pinnacle of the local entertainment industry.

This is not the case, and Yang Ming knows this very well.

Moreover, in the exchange with the old dean, the old dean also reminded Yang Ming to keep a clear head and not be confused by the success in front of him.

He can win the award, except that his role as Zhou Yu in "Three Kingdoms" is indeed remarkable, and at the same time, when he plays against Yang Chaowei, the actor, he is a super long play, which has left a deep impression on everyone, coupled with the mentality of the organizing committee to make up for it, Yang Ming winning this best actor does not prove that his acting skills are better than others.

In other words, Yang Ming's acting skills are truly successful, to the point of impeccable.

He still has a lot of room to grow.

Yang Ming humbly accepted the old dean's reminder, but he was most concerned about the director's problem.

Through this exchange with the old dean, he finally understood where his biggest flaw was.

It's all because of the memories of a past life!

The incredible crossing made Yang Ming have the memories of countless classic works in his previous life in his mind, and with the reference of these memories, he didn't worry about having no movies to make at all.

But it also caused a problem, and his thinking had long been solidified.

Because he already has the finished picture in his mind, he almost never has any stuckness in the process of filming, and he has never encountered creative difficulties, so he makes movies very quickly.

Every scene, every picture, he knows very well what he wants the effect to be, as long as he reproduces it.

This also led to Yang Ming's filming speed is very fast, such as "Transformers" and "2012" must have spent a lot of time doing special effects because of the large number of stunts involved, and the time may be a little longer, while low-budget romance films such as "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years" and "My Sassy Girlfriend", Yang Ming's shooting speed is absolutely god-like.

As long as the actor has no problem, he can make the finished film in less than a month.

For this point, many big-name stars who have cooperated with Yang Ming, Yang Chaowei, Niu Hua, Bao Guoan and other actors-level people are amazed, thinking that Yang Ming's talent in movies is too demonic.

In fact, only Yang Ming knew what was going on.

"I found a feature of all your film works, it seems that except for a few actors with a relatively large aura, the performance of other actors seems to be too mechanical, and there is no eye-catching performance, just like marionettes!"

After Yang Ming left the academy, he kept thinking about what the old dean told him at that time.

It was very impressive!

It was this sentence, like a bolt of lightning, that flashed in Yang Ming's heart, making him suddenly realize.

Combined with all this, he really realized that although he has achieved a lot with the memories of his past life, he has just started on the road of film, and he is still far from success.

With many years of experience on the set in his previous life, the theoretical knowledge he gained through the academy in this life, and the tips of several assistant directors and nannies, Yang Ming has never walked a crooked path on the road of movies in this life.

But it's not that he's already at the top of directing, on the contrary, he's just getting started.

Now even the old dean saw the problems in his movie and put it up to the point.

No wonder Yang Ming has always felt that something is not quite right.

Because of the memory of his previous life, before the filming of each movie started, Yang Ming already had a complete picture of the finished film in his mind.

Therefore, when he was filming, he had requirements for actors, as long as they could achieve the effect of their previous life.

But how can people be the same?

There is no one in this world who is 100% the same, even if the temperament is similar, but the subtleties are very different.

After the old dean's mention, Yang Ming also recalled his process of filming the movie, and it was really as the old dean said, in addition to actors with strong aura like Yang Chaowei , Bao Guoan, etc., they can go beyond Yang Ming's limited frame and truly shape the characters in the script according to their ideas.

Almost none of the other actors jumped out of Yang Ming's limit, according to his requirements, shoot the closest picture to the memory, it's OK!

I see!

After hearing the old dean's detailed analysis, Yang Ming completely realized, and then humbly asked the old dean for advice.

Ginger is still old and spicy!

If it weren't for the old dean's advice, he estimated that it would be a long time before he could comprehend this.

Even Yang Chaowei, Bao Guoan, Niu Hua, and other actors, did not realize this, but it was bystanders like the old dean who clearly saw the problems in Yang Ming's movies.

And this crux of the problem is not something that ordinary people can see.

Yang Ming was very fortunate to meet the old dean.

The old dean also gave a solution to this.

Drama!

This is also Yang Ming's biggest flexible board at present.

Although he worked on the set for many years in his previous life and watched many directors talk about dramas, he had no experience in direct directing after all.

The director's ability to talk about drama is precisely the ability that most needs experience precipitation.

Even if Yang Ming has memories of his past life, he is still inevitably a little weak in drama, if it weren't for the special assistant director who has been assisting him, it is estimated that he will definitely have a headache.

"I know you have a strong directing team, but first of all, if you want to be a good director, you have to learn to use every muscle in your body to make the other person listen to you when telling a story.

"You have to do it yourself. ”

"When the director gives the actor the first time, he must first enter the role and impress himself."

The old dean severely criticized Yang Ming in this regard, thinking that he handed over everything to the crew and gave up exercising his personal ability.

Yang Ming was also quite ashamed, he really didn't pay attention to this issue all along.

Drama is not so important.

But think about it, it's really a cold sweat.

If he wants to make an original film work in the future, the picture he wants cannot have a ready-made complete picture in his memory, then he needs to speak for the actor himself.

As long as he can understand it thoroughly, he can let the actor know how to act.

After listening to the old dean's suggestions, Yang Ming immediately borrowed a notebook and pen from the old dean and wrote down what the old dean said.

The old dean was also very relieved to see Yang Ming doing this, a successful student was not enough for him to attach so much importance and pride.

But a student who keeps succeeding, but still maintains an open-minded learning mentality, then he can't pay too much attention, because he believes that a student with such a hard work mentality proves that he will never stop at his current achievements, and will definitely climb to a higher mountain in the future, and his achievements will be even greater!

When Yang Ming and the crew members met and flew to the city where the location had been arranged, on the plane, he also took out the recorded notebook, saw the content on it, and kept thinking.

As long as he can truly understand and master these, he believes that his ability to direct will definitely improve a lot.

While looking at the notebook, he recalled in his mind the old dean who was excited and danced.

"The first time I tell an actor, another ability that the director must have is to completely attract the actors, and the director must instill a three-dimensional character in his mind one by one into the actor's mind.

The old dean also gave an example for Yang Ming.

For example, don't tell an actor, "You're a person who gets angry very easily."

Then the actor will be very confused, and there are many kinds of anger, and I don't know which one is the anger that the director wants.

Instead, you should tell the actor: "You're a guy who gasps for breath when you're angry, scratches your hair with one hand, and clenches your fist with the other."

"As a director, all the characters should be transformed into figurative actions, otherwise the actors will be confused."

"Generally, when we make a film, we don't tell the actors about the play only once, because most of our actors may not have been specially trained, and an actor without special training can become a very good film actor, as long as the actor's IQ reaches the standard of ordinary people, and the rest should be the director's homework."

When the old dean said this, Yang Ming's mind couldn't help but think of "Fast and Furious" that was being filmed.

Xiong Zhuang!

Isn't that something similar?

Although he has a lot of acting experience, it is all old-fashioned cutscenes, and they are basically characters with no lines.

After the movie started, although Yang Ming also told Xiong Zhuang several times, he relied more on Xiong Zhuang's own comprehension, and the assistant director specially assisted the other party to understand the script.

In this regard, he does not seem to have fulfilled his responsibility as a director.

Yang Ming couldn't help but sigh when he saw this sentence in the notebook, fortunately, Xiong Zhuang is still talented, otherwise it is estimated that this drama will definitely not be completed as scheduled.

He was glad.

The old dean told Yang Ming a lot of the styles of several famous domestic directors, and he did not ask Yang Ming to imitate and learn, but to comprehend and walk out of his own style of drama.

How to tell the play well, how to make the actors better understand the director's intentions.

"When you talk on set, you have to ask yourself countless times, the motivation, the highest task, the character, the plot development, what is the last shot, what is the next shot."

Yang Ming finished reading the last sentence in the notebook, and after closing the notebook, his heart was full of emotion.

At the same time, he also thought about how he should get out of his own style of drama.

It seems that it is necessary to try it for the next shooting.

Yanjing.

A golf course.

Zhao Jianfeng swung lightly, and after hitting the ball out, he said to He Xinghan beside him: "I really didn't expect You Gang to come out of your Victory Pictures!"

Hearing this exclamation, He Xinghan's face turned red and he was speechless for a while.

He didn't know what to say.

You Gang is a well-known director of Victory Pictures, with the changes in the film market, although the other party has no contractual relationship with Victory Pictures, as long as there is any shooting plan, You Gang will basically find Victory Pictures to cooperate with as soon as possible.

It's just that this time the award-winning "Bitter Water", the production unit above, has nothing to do with Victory Pictures.

This is an independently produced film.

won three Golden Dragon Award awards in "Bitter Water", two of which are the heaviest awards in the Golden Dragon Award, and many stories in front of and behind the scenes of the film have been dug up.

And You Gang's filming of this film not only did not win the support of his old club, but also almost fell out with the past, which was turned over by the media, and immediately caused a sensation in the entire entertainment industry as soon as it was reported.

"Bitter Water" has just won the Golden Dragon Award, even if the biggest limelight is stolen by Yang Ming, as long as it has the title of Best Picture of the Golden Dragon Award, no matter what news it is, it will attract attention.

Especially with such a powerful inside information.

"Even if this film finally won the award, this film is still not profitable, and the box office is a mess!" He Xinghan muttered.

Although he didn't speak loudly, Zhao Jianfeng still heard it clearly, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching, if it weren't for the fact that the Zhao family had not paid attention to the entertainment industry before, he didn't want to deal with He Xinghan at all.

There are a lot of clever things, but the real shrewdness is extremely stupid.

Even a person like Zhao Jianfeng, who doesn't know much about the entertainment industry, is well aware of the concept of the Golden Dragon Award and its influence in the world.

Thinking of this, the club in his hand couldn't help but hit it a little harder, and the ball immediately deviated from the direction he wanted in his heart.

Zhao Jianfeng sighed lightly, then handed over the club to the people around him, returned to the seat on the sidelines and sat down, frowning and pondering whether the family's entry into the entertainment and cultural industry and the cooperation with He Xinghan were a bit worth the loss.

As a child of a family, the other party obviously has no heart to really do business.

This does not meet Zhao Jianfeng's requirements.

Either don't do it, or do it to be the best, this is his pursuit.

Even if the family distracts some of their energy to the entertainment and cultural industry in order to cater to the top this time, he doesn't want to be perfunctory.

Even, as he learned more about the entertainment and cultural industry, the more he felt that this industry had a lot of money, and it was definitely a sunrise industry, which was worth spending a lot of energy to operate.

"Xinghan, what about my previous proposal? The Zhao family will take a stake in Shengli Pictures, and at the same time, two film companies will merge into Shengli Pictures, and Xiao's industry in the entertainment industry will also be integrated!"

Zhao Jianfeng said lightly.
