Chapter 970: Governor from Heaven (Part II)
Props, camera positions, scene notes, and a number of onlookers.
The scene in front of me was as familiar as the previous two months of filming in Los Angeles, but the mood was probably the most immersive.
The art of acting has different theories, Gan Jing has always been to learn and absorb in combination with practice, but in a personal lens performance like this small space now, he thinks that the most correct thing should be to give all his emotions to the character in the script, without using skills, simply using the character's emotions to drive the most natural reaction.
Gan Jing is very confident in this, don't ask, if others have different opinions, then mine prevails.
If something is wrong with the camera, make it a priority to revise the script before making adjustments to the performance.
The last time this happened was when Ang Lee's "Life of Pi" was used in the final shot, and in the end, that shot successfully moved many of the Oscar judges and audiences around the world.
At that time, the great director Ang Lee felt that the final shot was a bit tearing up the narrative of the whole film, however, after weighing and weighing, even as the creator of that drama, he felt that it was a pity for the majority of fans to leave such a shot.
Gan Jing exhaled slowly, sat down on the chair gently, and slowly grasped the state of the character in his heart.
The prototype of the character in "The Governor from the Sky" is himself, and the story content is a rhapsody based on reality, so it is easy to act on a daily basis, but there is also a problem, that is, the character and the prototype are similar but never equal.
The so-called art comes from life and is higher than life, and it is almost appropriate to use it on this.
Because the prototype is yourself, it is not so easy to make a breakthrough.
Don't smoke, cut a cigar on the screen, don't dance, dance solo on the screen, including but not limited to these are not breakthroughs, just some small tricks.
What Gan Jing wants to do now is to tell the audience in front of the screen that I am not the actor Forrest Gump you know in life, but a Chinese Xiaojing who has become a Hollywood superstar but is full of ambition and conceit to attack the political arena.
How?
The field notes are played.
Click.
NO。
In just five seconds, Gan Jing, who was already sitting in the chair, got up and waved his hand at the camera, signaling to director Zhou Shen that this time it was NG.
"What's wrong?" Zhou Shen trotted all the way over, if it was changed to other young actors, the director would have shouted directly with a loudspeaker, but most of the actors in this play, whenever they met NG, Zhou Shen ran over to listen to their opinions, and they just had to lick it well.
One of the tasks of a director in the crew is to sort out the relationship between the top and bottom of the crew, and in this regard, the producer is similar.
Gan Jing frowned, unconsciously wandering in place, as irritable as a trapped beast in a cage.
"It doesn't feel right, add something, add something. He muttered to himself in the face of the director's inquiry.
"What?" Zhou Shen is as good as a stream, the shot to be taken today was determined by staying up late the day before yesterday, but when it comes to shooting, it is natural to improvise, and the current state of Forrest Gump is one of the changes.
Changing the drama, hehehe, it's normal.
Gan Jing sat back in his chair, turned his head to look at the curtain without focus, his brain was running rapidly, today is to put himself in such an environment to perform a breakthrough, so in addition to his own full devotion, what other settings are easy for the audience to perceive?
In a flash, Gan Jing went online for two seconds.
"Music, music. Gan Jing's eyes lit up, and he said to the director, "Go get a vinyl record player again, well, a ...... from the record player."
Gan Jing sifted through many thoughts in his mind and sifted through them one by one, and finally said: "A record in Italian, melodious and intoxicating." ”
Zhou Shen thought for a moment, nodded in agreement, and then asked, "Is there anything else?"
"Not for the time being. Gan Jing shook his head.
Zhou Shen turned around to communicate with the props team and retold Forrest Gump's request, and then the crew fell into waiting, no one bothered Forrest Gump at this time, even those actor friends did not come forward, they clearly knew that Forrest Gump must be in the role state at this time.
The props group was relatively complete, and after about half an hour, Zhou Shen came over with a record player loaded with records.
"Boss, we discussed it a little bit and chose a song in Italian, "Con te partiro", which is the version of André, the fourth tenor, which is very beautiful. ”
Gan Jing was noncommittal and motioned for him to let it out and listen.
After a few seconds, the vinyl record player began to work.
A magnetic and melodious song sounded.
"Okay, that's it. Wait a minute, I'll learn a few lyrics. After Gan Jing said this, he began to listen to the melody and lyrics of the song repeatedly.
One of the ways he thinks about how to convey new character information to the audience is to use different singing voices in different languages.
Chinese and English correspond to a large film market, and Gan Jing is reluctant to give the audience on both sides a sense of familiarity, while Italian is relatively niche.
Italian is known as the language of the wind, with smooth and gorgeous pronunciation, uniform and rhythmic sequence, and the most famous Italian opera often brings melodious feelings to listeners who do not understand Italian is that its words like to end in vowels, which is determined by the characteristics of the language.
After more than half an hour, Gan Jing was ready again.
Click, the slapstick was played again after a few seconds of NG after the first pass.
The melodious singing sounded, and the charm of the singer was the first to come through the air.
“su navi per mari。 ”
“che io lo so。 ”
“no no non esistono più。 ”
——Drifting across the ocean, I firmly believe that rain or shine, invincible.
Gan Jing, who was under the camera, reached out and unbuttoned his white shirt, got up and walked two steps to the record player and stretched out his right hand, and the singing stopped abruptly.
He bowed his head, his eyes serious, the record plucked forward, and the song returned to these lines.
Tone down.
Gan Jing returned to the window, and unlike just now, this time he hummed softly along with the song.
A low voice echoes through the room with the sound of records, and in an instant it is filled with a romantic artistic atmosphere.
Gan Jing's expression was relaxed, and he sat back in his chair and reached out to cut his cigar.
The record continues to turn.
Gan Jing leaned back slightly, took out the cigar from his mouth and exhaled upward, his eyes changed from relaxed to quiet thought, and the fingers of his right hand were not very stable with the cigar.
The screen on the monitor is four minutes and twenty seconds from the time the board is played to the end.
"It's really ......" Zhou Shen signaled first, and then searched for the words he wanted to describe.
Zhou Xun next to him immediately said: "Style, very charming." ”
"Yes, yes, this picture is really amorous. Zhou Shen sighed, "This play has become more and more flavorful." ”
"Forrest Gump, after all. “
I don't know who is next to me, so I sighed. (https:)
