Chapter 1034: The Ghost of the Midnight Bell (2)
In the blink of an eye, the filming of "Midnight Bells: The Ghost Shadow" is about to come to an end, and the last day of filming is almost entirely Charlize. Theron's footage, though only for a short period of three days, is not for Charlize . For Theron, it was as if three months had passed. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
In the dark room, the sound of dripping water in the bathroom could be heard, and then there was the click of a paw scratching the door. Theron woke up and shook desperately to sleep on the side of Chris who played the male lead. Evans, but he couldn't believe a man who pretended to be asleep......
The only thing left in the entire dark room was the oozing sound of scratching the door, and the panicked Charlize . Theron wants to turn on the bedside lamp.......
Cheng Xiaoyu frowned and shouted: "cut!" ”
This is already the 6th NG, Charlize . Theron's expression was a little cramped, and Cheng Xiaoyu's requirements for her were not ordinarily high, which made her feel more stressed.
Cheng Xiaoyu said to the film crew members around him: "Let's rest for a while." "And then to Charlize . Theron said, "Miss Charlize, come over here." Although Charlize kept telling Cheng Xiaoyu that it was okay to call her Charlize, Cheng Xiaoyu never changed it.
The two walked to the corner of the suite, and Cheng Xiaoyu said with some seriousness: "Miss Charlize, it's still an old problem, your performance traces are too heavy, you must know that this is not only a movie, but also a pseudo-documentary that is infinitely close to the truth...... So essentially, I don't need you to perform. Maybe you went to see Catherine. Blanchett's performance so turned into a parody, but now please forget about her! ”
Charlize. Theron nodded a little aggrievedly, thinking that it wasn't you who complimented Catherine. Blanchett acted well, did I just go to see it?
Charlize. Theron is about the same height as Cheng Xiaoyu, and in Cheng Xiaoyu's opinion, God is actually unfair to her, giving her a Venus-like appearance, and giving her a perfect body, Charlize in pajamas. Theron makes it impossible to concentrate at all.
Even Cheng Xiaoyu was no exception, he could only look away from Charlize. Theron looked away to look at her blue eyes.
Cheng Xiaoyu meets Charlize. Theron didn't fully understand what he meant, so he could only say, "For example, if you are asked to play a thief now, what should you do?" To imitate him? No! You have to rely on your knowledge of thieves and put yourself in the shoes of yourself - what would I do if I was a thief who steals for a living? What kind of 'me' am I? The real 'performance' comes from empathy, not superficial imitation. .....”
Cheng Xiaoyu explained that Charlize. Theron felt that she had finally understood something, and she said to herself: He was much better than the teacher in the study class I had attended, but what Cheng Xiaoyu said seemed to be different from what the teacher taught her, and she asked: "But my teacher told me ......"
Cheng Xiaoyu seemed to see through Charlize. Theron was thinking, he said, "Forget that you are in the class, all the non-physical acting, the gender inversion, the animal imitation, and all that, it doesn't make sense to film acting, it doesn't exist - because movies are seen. Not only can you see it, but you can also zoom in exponentially, close-up, and fill it into a huge screen. So, it doesn't make sense for you to practice speaking into the air and trying to play a sexually inverted monkey. Unless you're playing a neurotic in a movie. Practice correctly, experience the character's mind, understand her emotions, and make yourself who she is, not imitate her. ”
Charlize. Theron asked as if he didn't understand, "How do you get into a role?" ”
Cheng Xiaoyu grabbed Charlize. Theron's arm, staring into her eyes, said, "Look at me! You're Rachel now. Keller, you're a psychic girl who has been haunted by ghosts since she was a child! So your fear of ghosts is not a sudden fear, but a visceral chill to pretend they don't exist...... Now think about it! ”
Under the tutelage of Cheng Xiaoyu, Charlize. Theron finally got the hang of it, not in NG.
........
Finally came the last shot, and it came to Charlize. Theron's final test, which is also called Charlize. Theron became anxious, she began to practice her expression in the mirror, but she couldn't find a feeling, so she had to find Cheng Xiaoyu again and ask, "Director, why is it weird to laugh?" ”
Cheng Xiaoyu looked at the monitor and said casually: "The smile of the neuropathy is very weird, just force yourself to be fine!" ”
Charlize. Theron was a little speechless.....
Cheng Xiaoyu looked away from the monitor and looked at Charlize. Theron tirelessly said, "If you don't go crazy, you can't live!" To be a good actor, you have to learn to split! Acting is a kind of sober self-hypnosis, a sober split personality. You have to be a sober psychopath, because you have to obey the director's commands, specific instructions. You also have to be divided, because you're going to be this character. ”
Cheng Xiaoyu's words once again subverted Charlize. Theron's cognition, she thinks it's okay that the filming is about to be finished, otherwise she will really be fine, Charlize. Theron thought back to how a mentally ill person should laugh, and then said helplessly: "Then I'll think about how to laugh when a psychopath!" ”
Cheng Xiaoyu nodded and said: "The two styles of stupidity and weirdness must be distinguished, weird is to make people scared when they see it, not the kind of threat, but evil, gloomy ......"
.............
Finally, after countless rounds of speculation, the actress Charlize who painted special effects makeup. Theron, with a gloomy expression on his last pale face, smiled gloomily at the DV machine that fell to the ground, and then reached out to snuff out the DV machine.
Cheng Xiaoyu, who was standing on the side, shouted with a satisfied look: "cut!" Then he announced: "The filming of "Ghost Record" is over! ”
There was a burst of crackling applause all around, although because of the scarcity of people, there was no momentum, but the joy in everyone's heart was real, although the whole shot took less than four days, but for all the people who could participate, the harvest was huge, but there were also some regrets, the common feeling is that the shooting time is too short, everyone is a little unsatisfied.
Especially Charlize. Theron, the three-day starring time is like a dream for her, although it is only a DV movie, Cheng Xiaoyu's requirements for acting skills feel as strict as taking this movie to the Oscars.
Throughout the movie, basically most of the NG is hers, although it is very called Charlize. Theron was embarrassed, but the improvement that Xiaoyu brought to her acting skills was also very obvious. Theron really had the urge to ask Cheng Xiaoyu to shoot again, and she felt that she could do much better now than she did three days ago.
However, in three days, Cheng Xiaoyu completed the shooting of all the shots, for Cheng Xiaoyu today, shooting a DV movie is a bit pediatric, but the post-editing will be more brain-consuming.
In fact, what is more brain-consuming is the promotion of this movie, whether a pseudo-documentary can succeed or not, to a large extent, is not whether the movie is good enough, there is an upper limit to the excellence of pseudo-documentaries, so in the end, it will return to normal film shooting, so whether pseudo-documentaries can sell high box office depends on publicity.
However, Cheng Xiaoyu is also very well prepared for publicity, these days his "whisper" account has been in the top few hot searches for a long time because of the forwarding of a large number of supernatural videos and supernatural stories, and some very weird videos have even exceeded one million retweets.
Therefore, these days, Cheng Xiaoyu's "whispering" fan attention has soared, jumping into the 60 million mark, which is the effect Cheng Xiaoyu wants.
He plans to release the news after the editing is completed, "I received a strange videotape, which is a video tape that decrypts why the Cecil Hotel has frequent murders", I believe that such a publicity stunt will definitely make countless people curious.
Cheng Xiaoyu had already seen success beckoning to him.
The staff began to pack up their things, and Cheng Xiaoyu said happily: "I'll invite everyone to dinner!" ”
As soon as I heard the word "eat", the set boiled.
Chris. Evans was the first to jump up and said loudly, "I highly recommend that the boss invite me to eat at home!" Miss Xia's dishes are so good.....! These days of contact made him understand that his boss is actually very easy to deal with, although he is a little too perfect for his work, but he is definitely synonymous with a humble gentleman, of course, the key is that the BOSS's girlfriend Xia Shamo's dishes are too delicious.
Chris. As soon as Evans took the lead, everyone coaxed, the meals on the set these days were all made by Xia Shamo, and she didn't dislike the trouble and carried several large food boxes to help Cheng Xiaoyu deliver food every day.
And after trying the Chinese food made by Xia Shamo, Xia Shamo immediately became the most popular and expected person in the crew, even the glamorous Charlize . Theron couldn't take away the light from the slender girl.
Every time Xia Shamo appeared, the whole set was full of cheers, and no one could refuse Chinese food! Moreover, Xia Shamo is still a beauty who studied under a three-star Michelin master, and now Xia Shamo cooks and has personal characteristics, combining the characteristics of Japanese cuisine and Chinese cuisine to create summer cuisine.
Cheng Xiaoyu looked at the group of people who were eager to try, shook his head helplessly and said, "Why are you people embarrassed?" After eating for so many days, you are not satisfied? Give Summer a good rest this weekend! ”
Cheng Xiaoyu's words made everyone a little disappointed, but no one dared to really disobey the boss's meaning, so they could only continue to pack up their things honestly.
Hearing Cheng Xiaoyu's words, Charlize. Theron was slightly depressed, but after three days of contact, she had a good impression of Cheng Xiaoyu, but the Chinese girl next to her made Charlize, who had always been confident in her appearance. Theron lost confidence, not because she couldn't compare, but because she couldn't compare, especially when she watched the young director in front of her eat, the gentle light she emitted made Charlize . Theron felt glaring.
Once Charlize. Theron has worked hard in this world, but for the first time, she has a feeling that no matter how hard she tries and how close she is, she can't get the director's heart, which makes her extremely disappointed.
Cheng Xiaoyu has no time to pay attention to Charlize. Theron had the idea, after inviting everyone to a big dinner, he returned home and began to edit the film, and he was pressed for time, he had already contacted "Universal", and two weeks later, the film will be tested on a small scale in 200 art theaters across the United States.....
