Verse 412: Change your position
"Okay, so be it. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”
Duane picked up the speaker and shouted into the set, "Ready for the next show!"
The set immediately fell silent, and the camera crew, lighting crew, props crew, today's actors, group performers, and all kinds of people looked at each other, not sure if they had heard it wrong.
When they looked at the previous urine shape, they thought that they would have to shoot at least until the evening or that Du ane and Zhou Xingchi would only see a conflict break out, why did they suddenly pass it silently?
And after seeing Zhou Xingchi's lonely lone figure leave the director's studio without saying anything, they realized that this scene was really over.
"Oh!" "Great!" "Xiao Wang, hurry up and remove the two lamps here!" "Makeup, makeup! Come here, the makeup here is all paste, come and touch up the makeup!" ......
With a few suppressed cheers, the scene suddenly became busy and lively, and everyone who had been sunburned like salted fish just now immediately came to their senses as if they had been beaten with chicken blood, and they were busy quickly and methodically.
Zhou Xingchi left alone and walked in the direction of his own single lounge, and an assistant came up to him along the way to hand him water and towels.
His assistant is a very fat woman, under her background, Zhou Xingchi's already thin figure looks more and more sparse, his back seems to be a little bent, and he feels like he is lying down.
"Would it be nice to do that?"
Kang Junan and Du An watched Zhou Xingchi's leaving figure together, and raised their doubts on the side.
The boy came to rest as usual.
In the previous dozens of times, every time Zhou Xingchi looked at the monitor, he had to think about it for a while before doing it again, and at this time Kang Junan would run around boredly, but before that, he would first come to the monitor to report, after all, he was also the boss of the photography team, and he was also in charge of the mirror in the first scene.
However, this time was different from so many times before, Zhou Xingchi actually gave in, which made Kang Junan feel very puzzled.
"I don't think this shot is as good as last time. ”
Kang Junan spoke his mind.
Cinematographers are an important part of the filming process, and they often use their professional knowledge to give their own opinions to the director to help the director shoot better pictures. In particular, Kang Junan and Du An have also cooperated many times, and they don't have to worry too much about talking to each other, especially now that Zhou Xingchi is no longer there, Kang Junan has no scruples when he speaks.
Duane glanced at him, "Oh, why isn't it as good as the last one?"
Kang Junan said bluntly: "It's your composition, isn't the original composition very good? What did you make me into after adjusting it like that? It's too messy!" he shook his head as he spoke, and brought out the scene just now, put it in one place and stopped, pointed to it and said, "Look, what kind of mess is this?"
I saw that on the screen, on the left was the back of the special actor pressing Zhou Xingchi's shoulder, in the middle was Zhou Xingchi, and on the right was half of the billboard.
"If you want to say three, forget it, but look at what he looks like in the middle?"
Kang Junan's hand pointed at the screen again.
In the middle of the back of the special actor and the billboard, Zhou Xingchi only showed most of his face, and his body and a small part of the right side of his face were blocked by the head of the special actor.
"Also, this big piece of meaningless things on the left, meaningful information has been squeezed aside, and it is too uncomfortable to watch. ”
Kang Junan's fingers swiped across the monitor, and when he said "meaningless things", he swiped across the blank wall on the left side of the back of the special actor and the back of the special actor, and when he said "meaningful information", he crossed over from the billboard and focused on Zhou Xingchi's face.
"What a show, alas......"
Obviously, in Kang Junan's view, Zhou Xingchi should be given more performance space so that the camera can capture his performance in its entirety.
Duane smiled and asked him, "Do you think I should give these these," he said, and his fingers reached up and swiped over the large useless picture on the left, "give them all?"
Kang Junan nodded, "Yes." He seemed to think of something, and asked, "Do you want to leave blank?" ”
Duane shook his head, the hell he wanted to leave it blank.
"I think that's good. ”
When Du An was about to send Kang Junan away and let him do his own thing, his eyes wandered around Kang Junan's face, and he didn't say so after all, but temporarily changed his words and asked, "Do you know why he has been dissatisfied and asked to do it again and again?"
In the end, he has been with him for a few years, and he has collaborated on so many plays, he feels that he should give Kang Junan some guidance and teach him some things at the right time, after all, it is not a matter to be a photographer for a lifetime? He doesn't believe that Kang Junan doesn't want to go further, to be a director or something--not to mention anything else, even from the perspective of pickling girls, a director is obviously more attractive to girls than a photographer.
So he decided to take this opportunity to impart some of his experience to him, and whether he could comprehend it was Kang Junan's own business.
Kang Junan glanced at Du An's disdainfully and said, "It must be that he is not satisfied with his performance and constantly wants better results, otherwise what else can there be? Could it be that he thinks that his performance is too good and wants to perform a little worse?"
Looking at him like this, he probably felt that Duane's question insulted his IQ.
Du ane smiled and said, "Really, he just thinks his performance is too good." ”
Kang Junan was stunned for a moment, and then stared at Duan suspiciously, probably thinking that Duan was fooling him.
"Actually, it's not too good, but he thinks it's a little inappropriate. ”
"The focus of this scene is actually the special actor and the billboard, which seems to be a Truman character play, but it is actually a still life play, a scene that explains the background, he is too prominent, the focus is weakened, and this scene has no meaning. ”
Later, he also saw this, and wanted to find a balance in his relationship with the picture, so he constantly adjusted his performance style, hoping to achieve a balance between the two, but he never found it. ”
In dozens of attempts, Du Xingchi also saw it, and Zhou Xingchi obviously agreed with him, but he didn't admit it, he wanted to find a perfect solution in his own way, rather than simply using the first shot as Du ane said.
Probably that seemed imperfect to him.
However, this balance is too difficult to find, and he can't find it even if he keeps adjusting his performance methods, so that in the end, his mind is dry and there is nothing he can do.
"In fact, we have all seen that he is really amazing, and he is really a genius to be able to perform in so many different ways in such a scene. However, his thinking is too rigid, and he only knows how to drill the horns, so it is difficult for him to find a balance, but it is different to think about it from a different angle -- we don't just look for a breakthrough in the performance of the actors, can't we find a breakthrough from somewhere else? No, it's not. ”
Duane said: "Film is a comprehensive art, the actor is only one of the factors, many times we can change the overall feeling of the picture, such as the composition. ”
His hand gestured on the freeze-frame screen of the monitor, "The billboard is a still life, and it is customized by the advertiser, and it can't be changed, so there is no way to change the expressiveness, and the special actor is too, his acting ability is like this, we can't expect him to burst out with amazing acting skills in an instant, but we can change the composition." The composition was changed like this, compressing his personal space, and the two parts that were lacking in key things used the advantage of space to win to suppress Zhou Xingchi, and the effect was immediately different. ”
"Here, in addition to composition, there are actually many ways, such as makeup, props, lighting, we can use the way to add advantages to achieve a balance between his personal and the picture. ”
Finally, he made a concluding speech, "As a photographer or as a director, you must see things comprehensively, and your thinking must be flexible. ”
This last point is the experience he wants to pass on to Kang Junan.
Similar to their current example, Kang Junan may not encounter it again in the future, but this way of thinking remains the same. If you master this way of thinking, it will be beneficial to Kang Junan's photography level and even his future directorial career.
After listening to Duane's words, Kang Jun thought quietly for a long time.
Everything that needs to be said has been said, and truly understanding absorption is your own problem, and Duane can't care so much. Seeing that the time was almost up, he patted Kang Junan on the shoulder, "Don't stay here, it's time to go to work." He sent Kang Junan away.
The next scene is Song Zhen's play, which is a personal monologue of hers.
The scenes arranged on the first day were all decided by Duane himself, and he did not follow the usual rules, but deliberately selected the few scenes he wanted.
The obviousness of the advertisement in Zhou Xingchi's scene is one of the best in the whole movie, and Du An's special choice of this scene as the first scene is to help him better understand the nature of the whole movie and help him enter the world better and faster, the subtext is probably " Hey, boy, this isn't your solo stage show, it's a real reality show, we've got botched ensembles, we've got ubiquitous placements, and you've got to deal with these things in addition to your own personal performances."
This is also said to the camera crew, to the rest of the crew, after all, this is a special film, and Duane wants them to recognize it.
And Song Zhen's scene is mainly to help her better enter the character she plays.
Although Song Zhen was personally taught by Du An, and Du Anzhong has a general evaluation of her current acting ability, but after all, this is her first time in a big movie, facing real set shots, and she has to show it in front of so many professionals on the set - this is different from performing in their small theater.
He was worried that Song Zhen would have stage fright, which would cause her to not be able to enter this character, which would be bad, because he found out in the teaching process that Song Zhen was different from him, her performance was obviously inclined to be experiential, and if she couldn't enter the character due to the influence of external things, then most of her skills would be wasted.
So Duane arranged such a scene, hoping to hypnotize her through this scene, so that she could enter the character of Truman's wife Lin Lin as soon as possible.
In the play, Truman's setting is a man in his thirties in the prime of life, and so is his wife, Song Zhen is a round behind in terms of age, and it may not look like it, but don't worry, the most developed Chinese makeup artist in the film and television industry will help her successfully become a mature woman in her thirties.
And the fact is that when Song Zhen walked in front of him, Du An's couldn't tell that she was actually a little girl in her early twenties.
"Okay, no problem, let's get in place. ”
Duane waved his hand and sent her away, then picked up the loudspeaker and shouted to the scene: "All departments are ready for speed, there was too much delay before, we try to ......pass this scene at one time."
Good guy, when he was urging people, he didn't forget to mention what happened just now and provoke the conflict between the staff and Zhou Xingchi.
In fact, this is also an experience he has accumulated as a director: on the set, there can only be one talker.
Generally speaking, whoever has the biggest coffee in a crew is the real talker, which is beyond the post. In the crew of "Truman's World", Zhou Xingchi is more famous than him, but his position has an advantage over Zhou Xingchi, and everyone is half a catty, so he wants to provoke everyone's emotions and let everyone stand on his side, so that he can truly control absolute power.
In the past, Duane, for example, in the filming of "One Flew Over the Asylum", controlled absolute power through fierce head-on conflicts, but now he is quietly pulling out thousands of pounds, and in terms of means, it is an improvement compared to before.
After waiting for a while, and all the departments were in place, the drama began.
"Let's go!"
Duane gave an order, and the filming began.
"Hmm, for me, work time and private life are inseparable,"
The director's "start" sound has absolute magic, which makes Song Zhen, who was sitting in front of the camera just now with a calm face, smile and talk to the camera.
"My life is my life, it's ......"
Her voice dragged for a moment, as if pondering how to express it.
"It's Truman's World. ”
She laughed a little and said, "Truman's World is ......"
She pondered for a moment and said, "It's a way of life." ”
She nodded, "Yes......"
She wanted to come up with more adjectives, and after about a second, she spat out an adjective, "It's a dream way of life, it's ......"
She thought about it again.
This time she thought about it for a longer time, about five or six seconds, before she said, "It's a perfect life." ”
"Stop!"
Duane shouted to stop.
Even if Zhou Xingchi repeated it dozens of times just now, he didn't shout to stop, every one of them was, but now he shouted to stop. (To be continued.) )
