Chapter 10: The Feeling of Wanting

In the eyes of others, Bai Xue Jia is finally not as stiff as before, and the expression is very natural, I thought I could pass it all over again, but Aragaki Ayase, who has always been very good, suddenly dropped the chain, as if she had forgotten the words, and stood in place.

Others may not feel it, but Aragaki Ayase faced Bai Xue Jia, shrouded by Bai Xue Jia's gaze, and she felt the breath of yesterday most directly, clearly, and deeply.

It's as if yesterday it was a small pool, but today when I walked in, I suddenly found that the surrounding land was infinitely far away, and the small waterhole had become a vast ocean. The calm waters enveloped her, and the feeling of suffocation surrounded her, and no matter how much she struggled, she was only doing futile work, looking up at the fainter and fainter light, sinking little by little into the deep sea, unable to make the slightest wave.

What is acting?

For Aragaki Ayase herself, it's imitation. Ayase Aragaki is very fond of movies, and she is also very talented. Although she is very young and has little experience, she will work hard and carefully to observe the qiqi around her, observe what different people are like when eating, what they are like when they walk, and what their tone and expression are like when they speak, so that when she needs it, she will find a template that matches her own observation and imitate it.

However, when she stood in front of Bai Xuejia, she was horrified to find that the experiences she had observed were like a flat boat floating on the rough sea, smashed to the ground under the blow of the waves, and she could not imitate anything.

"Director, I'm sorry, I'll do it all over again. Aragaki Ayase apologized to the director and crew.

Why is this so?

Aragaki Ayase didn't know what was going on with her, so she stole a glance at Bai Xue Jia, then looked away and returned to the back of the tree where the camera began. I don't know if it's an illusion, she feels that Bai Xuejia is very different today, but she can't say what is different.

Aragaki Ayase clenched her fists, released them, clenched them again, and took a few deep breaths.

Ayase, you can do it, don't be nervous!

She silently cheered herself in her heart, nodded to the director, and with an "action", she walked out again.

……

“cut!”

“cut!”

“cut!”

"What's wrong with Aragaki today? ”

During the break, the photographer chatted with Makoto Shinkai.

Aragaki Ayase wanted to be quiet, sitting silently in the corner alone, looking depressed, although the others didn't say anything, but she herself seemed to be about to cry.

Makoto Shinkai glanced at Aragaki Ayase, and then at Bai Xue Jia, who was chatting with the rest of the crew, and said with a smile: "It's not that Aragaki is not in the state, but that Xue Jia is too in the state." ”

In all fairness, there were a few times when Aragaki Ayase's table was okay, but if it weren't for Bai Xue Jia, Makoto Shinkai might have passed.

However, standing in front of her was Bai Xue Jia, and it was Bai Xue Jia who didn't know why, as if he had eaten a bunch of golden cicada kings, and his rank was rushing straight up.

Putting two people in one shot, as if Aragaki Ayase was a newcomer who had never acted, everyone's attention would unconsciously be on Bai Xue Jia's body, and even Aragaki Ayase's own rhythm would not be involuntarily taken away by Bai Xue Jia.

To put it simply, this is the contagion, the contagion of a good actor can not only infect the audience off-screen, but also the crew and actors during filming. In other words, it's aura.

Makoto Shinkai didn't know how Bai Xuejia, who had never acted, mastered this technique, but he did have an aura. Judging from the lens, there is no indication that Bai Xuejia is "acting", as if he has become one with the surrounding environment. It seems that it is not a movie, but a documentary, and it is not Bai Xuejia's drama, but a record of Guishu's life.

That's exactly what Makoto Shinkai wants!

No...... Bai Xue Jia's appearance has far exceeded Makoto Shinkai's expectations.

However, the opponent's play, even if a person's acting skills explode, it is useless, and another matching opponent is needed to set off, if the opponent's strength is insufficient, then there is no qualification to set off - there is no scum left that will be crushed with a sense of zài, what to set off?

In this part, what needs to be expressed is the young first love of Hua Miao who wants to talk and stop. If the attention is attracted by Bai Xuejia, in the end, the love and atmosphere when Hua Miao is unwilling but helpless and painful to let go will be far from achieving the effect that Makoto Shinkai wants.

Without such an effect and foreshadowing, in the end, the effect of high tide may also be lowered by a few notches.

Aragaki Ayase is in a very poor state, and if it continues to be consumed, I'm afraid it will backfire. So Makoto Shinkai suspended the rivalry between the two and gave priority to filming some separate scenes, so that Aragaki Ayase could adjust her mentality. When she wasn't playing against Bai Xue Jia, Aragaki Ayase played very well, even better than at the beginning, and it seems that she has also made some progress from Bai Xue Jia.

However, as soon as he played against Bai Xuejia, Aragaki Ayase's state declined rapidly...... The psychological pressure brought to her by Bai Xuejia is too great, when acting, a look, a word, a smile, a frown, and an action will make her tense, and after a few minutes of scenes, she feels as if a few years have passed.

Even when I sleep at night, I am scared to wake up from my dreams.

It's scary.

Aragaki Ayase has the last part left in the solo scene, Hanae likes to surf, and was originally going to use a stand-in to complete it, but Aragaki Ayase wanted to do it herself, and when she got the script before, she learned to surf for a period of time.

If Aragaki Ayase could do it alone, it would have been better. Hanae herself is just a surfer, and she doesn't need to complete any difficult moves, she just needs to complete a simple surf, so Makoto Shinkai agreed to Ayase's request.

Clear and moderate winds.

Perfect weather for surfing.

Aragaki Ayase changed into a surf suit and surf pants, the surf suit tightly wrapped Aragaki Ayase, the chest was slightly raised, the buds were waiting to be released, the surf library was shorts style, revealing slender legs, because the practice of surfing was attached to a layer of healthy wheat yellow by the sun, not thin or fat, slightly rounder and smoother than bones, slightly slimmer than plump, full of youthful firmness and elasticity.

After taking safety precautions for Ayase Aragaki and warming up, filming began.

Several sets of simple shots, basically all over again, with one last action left, the rolled waves downwards to form another passage of water that Aragaki Ayase needs to pass through.

After waiting for a long time, I finally waited for a wave that could form the picture that Makoto Shinkai wanted.

Aragaki Ayase expertly lay on the surfboard, paddling with both hands to the rising waves, controlling her balance on the slope of the waves, and then standing up.

The waves are lifted more than two meters high, taking advantage of the propulsion of the waves. The crest of the waves, over her head, were like the mouth of a giant beast, shutting behind her. , Aragaki Ayase's agile figure, like a shuttle, rides the wind and waves in the hot pursuit of the sea monster.

Aragaki Ayase stared ahead, the speed of the waves falling faster and faster, the light getting darker and darker, and in a trance, Aragaki Ayase remembered Shirasakika again...... That's it, it's this feeling that it's going to swallow people.

Her body suddenly tensed, and the feeling of suffocation came again, followed by a sharp pain in her little leg.

She's cramping!

Makoto Shinkai was still immersed in Aragaki Ayase's excellent play and perfect surfing screen, but suddenly saw Bai Xue Jia rushing out like the wind, and before he could react to what Bai Xue Jia wanted to do, he saw a wave crashing down, and the camera lost the trace of Aragaki Ayase.
