Chapter Eighty-Four: Simulation
The other students in the rehearsal room glanced at her from time to time, and most of them were a little shocked.
Animal simulation is the beginner course in the acting class, and they usually don't pay much attention to it, and they can't leave their self-esteem behind in front of many classmates like animals, which is a little awkward.
But they saw that Shen Weiwei didn't care about her personal image at all, immersed in the performance, and could see the wildness of the animals on her, as if she had the amazing power of that beast.
Everyone rested quietly, but there were turbulent waves in their hearts, and this kind of performance strength is probably already the best among newcomers.
Teacher Wu clapped her palms again and asked them to sit cross-legged in a circle again, she sat in the middle, and smiled at the students and said:
"You have just performed very well, so you must be bold and open your imagination and not have a fixed mindset. Animal simulation is all about opening up your creative nature, and there is no uniform standard that tells you that you have to perform this way. Everyone can have their own understanding, and you need to find the latent power within you through this way of performing in order to truly feel the joy of acting. ”
Seeing Teacher Wu's gentle attitude, everyone relaxed and couldn't help but laugh with her.
Teacher Wu said a few more words, telling them that they should forget their identity labels in society when performing, and return to the most primitive state of human beings.
She looked around, her eyes fell on Shen Weiwei's face, and she did not hesitate to praise:
In this regard, Shen Weiwei's performance is very good, her performance is very powerful, not just the appearance of the image, but really into the inner world of animals. She even experimented with animal attacks, which naturally set obstacles and enhance dramatic conflicts, which required such spontaneous creation in the performance. ”
Everyone turned their heads to look at Shen Weiwei, and when they saw her looking at Teacher Wu with a light smile, they couldn't help but admire a little bit.
Teacher Wu continued:
"As I mentioned before, animal simulation isn't just about being similar on the outside, it's about really seeing everything around you with an animal's mind. Your emotions can only be expressed through your eyes and body, so you have to imagine yourself completely as a real animal and forget the human side. In fact, in this regard, it is similar to our characterization. Only when you really go into the heart of the character and believe that he is real, can the character stand ......"
Shen Weiwei hugged her knees and listened carefully, and the systematic explanation of performance theory played a great role for an actor like her, who has rich practical experience but insufficient theoretical knowledge.
It was as if a hand appeared out of thin air in her mind, sorting out her scattered knowledge, and her chaotic thoughts were gradually sorted out.
The later scenario training is still based on animals as the background, in small groups of three, focusing on animal-to-animal communication, allowing animal sounds to be made, and communicating with eye and body movements.
The group of Shen Weiwei, Meng Xi and Wen Yun performed the story of an animal competing for a female mate, and the students and Teacher Wu watched it with relish.
Back in the dormitory, Wen Yun spread out on the chair and didn't want to move, "Acting as an animal is more tiring than acting a person, at least people don't have to lie on the ground on all fours, my body is sore." ”
Shen Weiwei sat on the chair, took a sip of water, and turned on the computer to check the information.
Meng Xi walked up to her and said strangely:
"We're both tired, why don't you look like you're doing anything? You're moving more than we are in the rehearsal room. ”
She smiled, "Get used to it, you forgot that I learned to dance before?"
Meng Xi nodded, remembered something, and said to the two people in the dormitory: "By the way, the school's New Year's Day dance party is going to have a show, and our acting department has at least two out of each class, Hao Wensong can say, our dormitory must have one." ”
Shen Weiwei stopped moving her mouse, frowned and said:
"There is still more than a month before New Year's Day, so early to prepare for the show?"
Meng Xi smiled and said, "It's just to inform us in advance, and the show doesn't need to be reported now." But everyone in the acting class knows that you can dance, and you probably won't be able to escape. ”
Shen Weiwei bit her lip, wanting to refuse but couldn't think of a suitable reason.
Wen Yun listened to it and said excitedly: "Can you dance, can you, when will the rehearsal start?"
She looked at Wen Yun helplessly, okay, she almost forgot that Wen Yun was a young girl, she didn't have to do anything about singing and dancing, she usually couldn't help but dance for a short time in the dormitory, and the small waist twisted was very energetic.
Meng Xi was worried that college life was too monotonous and boring, so when Hao Wensong found her, she agreed for Shen Weiwei.
At this time, seeing her frowning, I was afraid that she would not agree, and I felt a little bottomless.
Seeing Wen Yun coming over, he hurriedly pulled her to unify the camp:
"There are just four girls in the dormitory, I brought Sister Yaxin over, you and Weiwei can dance, we have learned a little before, but we can't choreograph. ”
Speaking of this, she had a sad face, looking at Shen Weiwei with a blank eye, wanting to find her for an idea.
Those wet eyes looked over, Shen Weiwei didn't take her seriously, and they both decided excitedly, what could she do.
Even though she was not interested in performing on stage, she still came up with an idea:
"My previous dance teacher had a good relationship with me, so I should be able to ask her for help. ”
Meng Xi leaned over with a look of surprise and kissed her on the cheek:
"You're so good, Vivi. ”
Wen Yun couldn't hold back her excitement and said, "Then when are we going?"
"It's still early, so there's no rush now. She shook her head, and besides, she didn't have time to rehearse right now.
She stretched out her hand and knocked on the table, but she was thinking about the variety show that Xu Wenying said to help her get in touch, and she didn't know when there would be news.
It's been a week since she signed with China Television, and her life around her has not changed, as always, the school and the theater run at both ends.
Xiao Ye often called and joked that she was useless as a hero, and she could only eat melon seeds in Huashi.
Just as she was thinking about it, the mobile phone on the desktop vibrate, and she glanced at it, it was Xu Wenying's phone.
She guessed that it was probably the news of the variety show, and when she answered the phone, she listened to Xu Wenying:
"The variety show contract has been signed for you, Xiao Ye will bring the contract to you tomorrow, this variety show has been in preparation for half a year, and the program team values it very much. You participated in the first phase and only signed a contract for one term, so you must take advantage of it and strive to become famous. ”
Hearing these words, Shen Weiwei couldn't help but be a little cautious, what can make Xu Wenying pay so much attention must not be a variety show with a ticket.
Thinking of this, she said seriously: "Well, Sister Wenying, I will take care of it." ”
Meng Xizheng looked at her without blinking, and when she saw that she hung up the phone, she hurriedly asked:
"Weiwei, did Xu Wenying take over the drama for you? I'll just say, why did you sign a brokerage company for so long and still haven't started filming. ”
Shen Weiwei smiled and shook her head: "No, it's a variety show." ”
