Chapter 316: The Male Protagonist
"Are you ready? The role of Wan Yu (Ivan) is difficult, and he is the main actor in this film, and there is no one. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info This film unfolds the plot through Wan Yu's memories and several memory breakpoints in adulthood. Looking at the simple personal script, you must be making a mess, right? Wang Meng said with a smile.
The script given by Wang Meng is not a complete script, but only a description and interpretation of some episodes, so a group of celebrities laughed after listening to it, and they really couldn't understand it.
What Director Wang said is that looking at this scene of waking up in bed, you have to show incredulity, fear and confusion. To be honest, I really don't know what kind of plot to be interpreted like this, I said through Director Wang that this film is a time through science fiction, I think is it a performance after waking up? Huang Xiaoming said.
"Well, that's good." Wang Meng nodded.
I didn't expect the sect leader to be able to understand it, it's really good, it seems that he is attentive.
The sect leader knew that his acting skills might not be as good as those of everyone here, so he had to find another way, find what the director likes, and understand the script, seeing Wang Meng nodding with satisfaction, Huang Xiaoming smiled, thinking that he had made the right bet.
"There are cowardice and depravity in prison; There is arrogance and self-confidence in a wheelchair' and the hope of an end is dashed; There is no after waking up; , there is inexplicable self-blame; There is indulgent numbness; There is a struggle with no hope; There is a sudden loss of fading and falling; There is also a kind of melancholy that others do not understand...... Really, the role of Director Wang is not simple, and it seems that there is also an incredible and unknown situation like "This Man is from the Earth". Ren Quan saw that Huang Xiaoming had won the first place, so he organized his language and said.
"That's true." Wang Meng still nodded.
"A crazy personality, a perverted perfect feeling." Zheng Chao said a word.
"Hmm."
Wang Meng was stunned, he didn't expect Brother Chao's vision to be so powerful, and with just a little bit of bridge, he actually saw the most appropriate embodiment of the protagonist.
This scene made Wang Meng's eyes light up.
In fact, at this level, acting skills can be adjusted. Even if the acting skills of these people are not good, they are also the most potential and top group in China.
The rest is nothing more than an understanding of the characters, and perceptions.
Therefore, Wang Meng didn't come up and asked everyone to perform, this is not the original "You at the Same Table" nor "Struggle".
At today's level, Wang Meng has the confidence to train actors.
And the most important thing at this level is the understanding and commitment to the role.
There is a level of standard, and Wang Meng wants everyone to perform one by one, which will make people laugh.
Are you a big director to see the acting skills of the actors?
To be honest, acting is important, but not the most important.
Everyone here can perform well, just see who is the most suitable.
And how to decide on the right fit?
It is to see how well everyone understands and how well they fit into themselves.
Just like the original "Painted Skin", Wang Meng didn't let Zhao Wei and Zhou Xun perform at all, but simply exchanged ideas.
What do you think?
It's not like it's still very good!
Nowadays, "Painted Skin" is popular all over the world, and there is no saying that the actors are bad.
It's a matter of layers.
Therefore, Wang Meng now prefers to see everyone's understanding, it is all old actors who ask others to show that their acting skills are feasible. But it doesn't matter anymore.
Now, Wang Meng's favorite ones have come out, there are three, Deng Chao, Huang Xiaoming and Ren Quan.
Among them, Huang Xiaoming and Deng Chao are the most suitable, and Wang Meng is a little difficult to choose for a while.
If acting is divided into many parts, speech, movements, expressions, courage, imagination, communication, body language......
So imagination is the most important thing at this moment, especially science fiction films.
Just like in "The Butterfly Effect", I started to be confused, I didn't know what I was talking about, the interspersed plot and the foreshadowing I bought, and I couldn't understand what the movie was saying in the first forty minutes.
In the middle is to slowly unravel the mystery, which is important here.
A good actor wants fans to understand, or does he want fans to not understand? So, the first thing to do is to show that you don't know what's going on, or that you're slowly trying to figure out why I had amnesia before.
This requires an extension of the imagination, and of course expressions and speech are also important here.
However, Wang Meng believes that the most important thing is imagination, only by showing good imagination, fans will follow the imagination of pig's feet and follow up, and finally suddenly realize.
Therefore, imagination is very important here, as for the expressions and movements of the performance imagination, Wang Meng feels confident that he can be trained well.
Imagination is something that everyone has, and the question is whether imagination is used and used is a key.
Imagination also needs to be practiced, and through training, our imagination can be richer.
The imagination of the actors on the stage is very important, for example, if you imagine that the stage is a house, you will have a sense of space within a certain range of the heart, and without this imagination, your eyes will become very empty and fake.
For example, imagine your psychological favorite person, then the praise words spoken will be realistic.
Of course, the colorful imagination comes from the careful observation of the details of daily life, and is closely related to the continuous mention of personal cultural accomplishment and comprehensive quality.
Imagination is one of the important creative abilities of an actor, and every inspection of an actor's artistic work and stage life is inseparable from rich and special artistic imagination, whether he is studying the role or reproducing the role.
We say that imagination comes from rich life, from the actor's psychological experience and emotional memory, and from the actor's bold fantasy and association.
Of course, all imagination must conform to the truth and logic of life, as well as the laws of art.
Actors must consider nurturing their imagination as their most important task in life.
Because imagination runs through the beginning and end of creation, throughout the actor's entire career.
To put it bluntly, "Butterfly Effect" is more like a memoir, a memoir of Wan Yu.
This memoir is full of imagination and full of unbelievable.
That's why imagination is important here. Through such thinking, it is necessary to bring in the fans' thinking, plus the acting skills are shown.
……
After listening to everyone's answers, Wang Meng said: "Everyone's ideas are good. Or is it that sentence, I only choose the most suitable one, not to say that other people's acting skills are not good? I want to say this, then everyone doesn't believe it, all of you, I have taken a look, you all have your current status by virtue of your own hard work and talent. To be honest, they all have their own specialties and their best parts. Therefore, I won't praise them one by one here, everyone is an old actor, and you should know that there is only one winner in the end, and one is the most suitable. ”
After Wang Meng finished speaking, everyone was very nervous.
Everyone knows what Wang Meng meant.
In fact, that's it, no one can crush anyone in what they are doing, it's nothing more than who is most favored by the director and who is most suitable for this role.
There is no rookie like Hua Xiaoyu, if you don't choose me, I will be jealous and revenge.
If it's all like that, it's not over in the future, and you won't be able to play.
Wang Meng said this, it is nothing more than to express, I have a favorite object, I hope you can understand.
"What Director Wang said is that everyone understands that it's just that the role is suitable, even if it is not suitable this time, there will be gains. At least I got to know Director Wang, and it also made Director Wang see our strengths and weaknesses, and I hope that next time there will be a suitable role Director Wang remembers us. Tong Dawei saw from Wang Meng's eyes that he was not suitable for Wang Meng.
To tell the truth, his understanding of science fiction is really not as good as Deng Chao, Huang Xiaoming and others.
So I have to say so.
"It's like, we all understand, it's just a character, in fact? I care more about Director Wang remembering that there is an actor like me, and I hope that Director Wang can think of me if he has a suitable role. ”
"Yes, Director Wang, we are all old actors, we have experienced a lot, and we all understand. Director Wang just remembers me as a little actor. ”
"Yes, Wang Dao......"
Wang Meng nodded and said: "Thank you for your support, thank you for your understanding, in this case, I have made up my mind with this friend." I won't delay your time, but I will talk about the three who entered the second round of interviews. ”
After Wang Meng finished speaking, everyone's psychology tightened.
It's easy-going, but who doesn't want to be themselves.
Especially when I heard that there were three of them, everyone was ready for them.
"Huang Xiaoming, Deng Chao, and Ren Quan can conduct the next round of acting interviews, and the rest are sorry."
Wang Meng quickly cut through the mess and said his answer simply and clearly.
While Huang Xiaoming, Deng Chao, and Ren Quan were happy, the rest of the people felt a little uncomfortable.
This is Wang Meng's work, not a dispensable work, this work can save you five years of hard work, who do you say is not envious?
Everyone looked at the three of them with a little jealousy.
And the remaining three were happy and nervous at the same time.
This is only the first round, and the following is the important round, and the success or defeat depends on the following.
After the eliminated stars left, the remaining three became serious.
"Brother Xiaoming, Brother Chao and Brother Quan, I am most optimistic about the understanding and opinions of the three of you at present. There are still a lot of roles to be selected, I won't delay everyone's time, I'll give you five minutes, I hope you can show the scene where Wan Yu just woke up, you understand it yourself. Wang Meng said.
The three nodded.
About five minutes later, Ren Quan said to come first.
On a simple bed, Ren Quan began to perform.
The performance is a bit excessive, it seems to be the kind of tension in the TV series, a little too much.
And then Deng Chao's performance was just right. However, the only regret is that Deng Chao was too calm and didn't show that kind of confused and dull character of the protagonist himself.
But Huang Xiaoming is very suitable, the second brother is not called in vain, there is a unique stupidity. It is very similar to the kind of protagonist in the play who is a little withdrawn and timid and wooden.
But in terms of acting skills, to be honest, it is a little worse than Deng Chao and Ren Quan.
However, there is a very important reason, and for this reason, Wang Meng was the first to eliminate Ren Quan.
When the pig's feet are down-and-out in the play, the sloppy side of the bearded face is not suitable for the handsome side that Ren Quan has always had.
And, Huang Xiaoming, who remembers the later generations, has had several tough guy performances, and his beard is also very good.
After thinking about it for a long time, Wang Meng eliminated Deng Chao with difficulty.
Huang Xiaoming was selected, first; The 'silly' in the character is suitable, and the second is that the sloppy when you are down.
The whole film is full of depression and seriousness, Deng Chao may be suitable for a funny role.
Although? In "Chinese Partner", Deng Chao has a serious side, but he has passed it seriously.
The protagonist of this film is very serious and depressed, which is caused by experience, not his own seriousness.
So, the comprehensive test was ......
"Thank you three for your great performances, one has good news for one and one bad news for both." Wang Meng said a little mischievously.
"After my consideration and solemn thinking, I decided to have a ...... for the male protagonist of this film"
An exciting moment when time seems to be running a little slowly?
The actor of "Butterfly Effect" is played by Huang Xiaoming. In addition, thank you Brother Chao and Brother Quan for their support, sorry. ”
"Mine." Huang Xiaoming stood up and pointed to his incredulous question.
And the remaining two looked downcast.
"The role needs, the pig's feet are a little timid and afraid, the wooden character, a bit sloppy image. So......? Wang Meng explained.
In this way, Deng Chao understands that he is too serious, and the seriousness of this drama is the entire plot, not the protagonist.
The protagonist is in a depressive and serious environment, and finally chooses to annihilate himself, rather than showing himself to be serious all the time.
And Ren Quan also understands that the sloppy image has a sense of disobedience.
The two also have something in common, which is not suitable for suppressing the sense of disobedience of dark movies.
Wang Mengyi said that the two understood that it was not because they did not work hard and acted in good faith, but that the role was more suitable......
