In the classroom, students are moving props and scenery blocks on the stage. Zhang Ran, Li Xinyue, and Zhou Zheng sat under the stage, whispering about the clips of Guo Zhen and their rows just now.

It has been half a month since the students in the class got the script, and now Zhang Ran is checking the students' rehearsal homework.

The students moved quickly, the sketch has been rehearsed for a week, and it is very clear where to put the props and how to put them one by one. They all carry props in the aisle to the designated position, put them down and go, and the action is very quick.

When the stage is set up, the actors begin to perform.

Zhang Xinyi was dressed in black, the cheongsam was inlaid with silver lace, she combed her hair in the thirties of the last century, held a fan, hung it under her fingers, and walked on the stage. Her eye sockets were heavily shaded, shadows were drawn under her cheekbones, and she looked a little old. She looked at Wang Siwei, who was standing in the room, and asked, "Where did he go?"

Wang Siwei was wearing a green cloth robe and combing his hair separately. When he heard Zhang Xinyi's words, he felt inexplicable: "Who?"

Zhang Xinyi said: "Your father." ”

……

Wang Siwei sighed and said, "So I'm leaving, don't let us meet, and remind each other of the things we regret the most." ”

Zhang Xinyi said firmly: "I don't regret it, I have never regretted doing things!"

Wang Siwei had no choice but to say: "I think, I have expressed it to you very clearly. I haven't seen you these days, and I think you understand well. ”

Zhang Xinyi said: "I understand very well. ”

Wang Siwei smiled bitterly: "Then, I am the most confused and incomprehensible person. I regret it, I think I did a big thing wrong in my life. I'm sorry for myself. I'm sorry for my brother, and I'm even more sorry for my father. ”

Zhang Xinyi said in a deep voice: "But there is one person you are most sorry for." Instead, you gently forget. ”

Wang Siwei: "The person I'm most sorry for naturally has. But I don't have to tell you. ”

Zhang Xinyi sneered: "That's not her! You are most sorry for me, the stepmother you once seduced!"

"Thunderstorm" is the first artistic masterpiece of Cao Yu, an outstanding modern Chinese dramatist, and it is also a classic play. Zhang Ran chose "Thunderstorm" because the subtext is quite rich, and it has an irreplaceable role in portraying the character's character and expressing the character's inner world.

The subtext is the true meaning hidden in the line, that is, the actor plays a character who has not said it in his mouth but has thought it in his heart, or said it with his mouth but thought it in his heart, or said it with his mouth, or said it with his mouth. And the heart is not satisfied. The subtext shows the real intention and real motivation of the speaker, and it often uses stage cues and the performance of the actor to make the audience taste and chew endlessly.

If an actor wants to convey the subtext to the audience, then you must know what the subtext is and what the meaning is really conveyed, so you must first analyze the lines and find out the subtext, which tests the students' ability to analyze the role.

The performance of the first two groups of students is okay, whether it is Jia Niliang's Zhou Puyuan or Guo Zhen's Sifeng. None of them made him hopeful. Especially Jia Milkliang, this kid usually has a flamboyant tongue and shakes his head and tail, this time Zhou Puyuan acted well. It can be seen that there is a lot of effort.

Zhang Ran is very confident in Zhang Xinyi and Wang Siwei's group, although Zhang Xinyi is a bit second, but she has been working hard. He is a very serious student, although Wang Siwei is relatively silent, he is not very active in the class. But the basic skills are very solid, and they are considered top among boys.

But the performance of the two of them after they came on stage disappointed Zhang Ran. Not only was the cooperation rusty, but many basic things were not performed, and when I saw it, I didn't put in any effort, and shouted: "Stop, stop, I'll interrupt first." Wang Siwei, how did you play Zhou Ping this week, and what is your relationship with Su Yi?"

Wang Siwei replied: "Stepmother and old lover!"

Zhang Ran asked, "How do you feel when you see her now?"

Wang Siwei said: "Panic!"

Zhang Ran continued: "Actors can't act emotions on stage, they can't just make expressions, you have to organize corresponding actions. You say you're panicking, so how do you act like you're panicking?"

Wang Siwei thought for a moment and asked tentatively, "Shall I step back?"

"If it fits the character and psychology of the character, of course it can. ”

"It's Mr. Zhang!"

"Also, what's going on with your character's lines, I told you to carefully study each line, figure out the psychological motivation of each line, and find out the hidden subtext behind it. What about the psychology of your characters? What about your subtext? You are not usually like this, what is going on this time? Is your mind all on the sketch?"

Zhang Ran had already handed over the written sketch to Wang Siwei and the three of them, and asked them to come down and find time to rehearse. Because he wanted to participate in the CCTV sketch competition, the judges were the directors and actors of the Chinese opera Nortel, as well as various drama troupes, so Zhang Ran chose a drama sketch "Fire Dragon Horse". The theme of the sketch is relatively positive and has educational significance, which is the type favored by CCTV competitions.

After Wang Siwei and the three of them read the sketch script, they were all very excited, from their point of view, this script is not so suspenseful compared with the previous "Taxi", but the emotional impact is much stronger. All three of them wanted to show their faces in the sketch competition, so their minds were mainly on the sketch.

At this moment, Wang Siwei only felt that Zhang Ran's gaze was as sharp as a sword, and it stabbed directly into his heart, he didn't dare to look at each other at all, and instinctively lowered his head.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Zhang Ran knew that he was right, and frowned and said, "Wang Siwei, you have to understand something." You are a student, and learning is the most important thing right now. If you don't even care about your own studies, then I don't think it's better to participate in this sketch contest!"

Wang Siwei was a little anxious, and hurriedly said: "Teacher Zhang, I was wrong, you give me another chance!"

"I'll give you a chance this time, but you can't do it again!" Zhang Ran stared at Wang Siwei, seeing that he couldn't stop nodding, he didn't say anything more, turned his head to look at Zhang Xinyi and said, "Zhang Xinyi, what's the matter with you Su Yi? Su Yi is only 35 years old, and she has the tone of an old lady, can she speak normally? You don't just act on appearances! Let me ask you, what do actors rely on to impress the audience?

"The sincerity of the emotion. ”

"Then what do you think of your performance just now?"

"Teacher Zhang. I also know that I am acting very fake, but the character of Su Yi is too complicated. I can't find that feeling. ”

"The character of Su Yi is indeed quite complicated, but the reason why a few of our teachers asked you to play it. I just believe that you are fully capable of playing this role well.

"However, I can't fully understand the characters. Hearing that Zhang Ran trusted herself, Zhang Xinyi was very happy, but immediately became a little distressed, and pouted slightly, "The difference between me and her is too great, I can't understand the psychology of an old woman in her thirties, I can't find that feeling!"

"As an actor, you have to learn to adapt to various roles, and you can't only play familiar life when you act in the future. Zhang Ran replied immediately. "You can't grasp the heart of the character, because you haven't studied the character thoroughly enough. In fact, you must have an emotional experience similar to Su Yi, even if you haven't experienced it, you have seen it, how can you not find it?"

Zhang Xinyi felt that she and Su Yi had nothing in common except that they were both women: "No, how can there be!"

Zhang Ran analyzed: "In the drama Thunderstorm, Su Yi loves Zhou Ping, but as the story develops, this love arouses jealousy. It was it that felt the humiliation, erupted with rage, and finally turned into intense hatred, pushing her to revenge at all costs. Let's remove the mother-son relationship between the two. Removing the era, it is actually a bloody drama caused by love and hate. You were in a relationship when you were in high school, right?"

Zhang Xinyi shook her head weakly: "I didn't!"

Zhang Ran said: "There is always someone you like!"

Without waiting for Zhang Xinyi to answer, Wang Luodan shouted below: "Teacher Zhang." She has a crush on you!"

The whole class laughed, and Zhou Zheng and Li Xinyue were laughing. Even Zhang Xinyi herself was laughing. She usually has a "our teacher Zhang", where can this be called a crush.

"The teacher interrupted at random during the lecture. The character biography has doubled!" Zhang Ran glared at Wang Luodan fiercely, and continued to analyze, "Your classmates always fall in love, do they secretly communicate with the school behind their parents' backs, after the breakup, there must be people who hate because of love, make small reports, and say bad things behind their backs, right?"

Zhang Xinyi nodded seriously and said: "I understand what you said, but it's still different, there are some things I can't understand, such as this sentence 'That's not her! You are most sorry for me, it is the stepmother you once seduced', I can't substitute it at all, I can't imagine such a thing." I can't even use the substitution, I haven't experienced anything like that!"

Zhang Ran understood the problem: "Let you play a murderer, you may think that I never thought of killing people, I can't replace it, how can I play it? This is not right, there must be a reason for killing, because of hatred, because of anger, etc., as long as we analyze the psychological state of the character, we can find similar emotions from our hearts to replace." In your scene, first Zhou Ping said that he was sorry for himself, his father, and his younger brother, but he didn't mention Su Yi. For Su Yi, the person she loves doesn't care about her at all, which is undoubtedly a huge betrayal, so she sneered and said this. Therefore, you can find a similar experience to replace, such as finding your mother peeking at your diary, or your boyfriend secretly dating other girls behind your back, in short, being betrayed by someone you trust, just find that state of mind to replace. ”

Zhang Xinyi suddenly brightened up and said happily: "Teacher Zhang, I know how to act!"

Zhang Ran stood up, walked onto the podium and said, "Okay, you guys come down first, I watched the performances of several classmates just now, and everyone performed okay, but not good enough." The actor's task is to create a real, vivid character on stage. In order to create a distinctive character image, it is necessary to create a distinctive character. Therefore, the creation of character personality has become a problem that actors must solve. As long as you have mastered the skills of personality and can create personality characters, then you can really say that you are actors, and then you will be able to become a teacher!"

Listening to Zhang Ran's long words, the students in the class were stunned at first, and then their faces showed great joy.

The core concept of creating a character!

The students in the class knew that Zhang Ran was going to talk about personality, they were like heroes in the rivers and lakes who were about to make the legendary Sunflower Treasure Book, as long as they learned this kung fu, they could punish Shaolin first, and then destroy Wudang, and they were all excited.
