Chapter 202: The Actor's Battlefield
Gu Xiaofan watched He Tiejun walk back to the crew with an embarrassed face, and couldn't help but say to him with some gratitude:
"Director He, thank you for speaking for me. [No pop-up novel network]"
He Tiejun glared at him: "You think I'm willing, I promised you to let you go this time, I will definitely let you do it thoroughly, and you will still twist with me in the future." ”
Saying that, He Tiejun patted Gu Xiaofan's shoulder and said to him in a low voice:
"Actually, to be honest, what you said to the Propaganda Department was what I thought in my heart, I admire you if you have the courage to say it, don't worry, even if this video site is messed up, I, He Tiejun, will definitely help you carry it, no one can touch you with me."
Gu Xiaofan was very surprised when he heard this, looked at He Tiejun and said, "Why do you trust me so much?" ”
"I believe in my eye for people." He Tiejun looked at him and said:
"You kid has the ability, but the temper is too big, too much to toss, it's hard to succeed now, but after ten years, when you are more mature, no one in the group is your opponent, and the biggest advantage of the two of us is that we are young...... As long as we grit our teeth, we can withstand the wind and waves for a long time. ”
Gu Xiaofan was moved when he heard it, and he couldn't cry or laugh, and before he started the machine, the director of the factory said frustrating words.
At this time, everyone else on the scene was preparing, the Indian girl was loudly directing the cameramen, while the assistant director Lin was coordinating the position of the lighting and radio, and the actors were nervously talking to each other.
The whole shooting scene was noisy, irritable, nervous, antique, all kinds of chaotic emotions mixed together, and everyone seemed a little restless.
Everyone was waiting for that moment to come, Deputy Director Lin saw that everything was ready, so he nodded to Gu Xiaofan, Gu Xiaofan came over immediately, stood in the center of the crowd, and the staff next to him picked up the board and held it above their heads, knocked the parasite with force, and shouted in a loud voice:
"Everyone~ Ready~ Turn on the radio and audition~ Stop the service...... All silent~"
The anxious crowd unanimously stopped their movements after hearing this, threw out the scope of the camera, and took their places, and everyone's eyes turned to Gu Xiaofan.
Gu Xiaofan felt completely different from the previous filming of "Old Boy", he felt the professional atmosphere of these employees of the art factory, which made him, a layman, feel an inexplicable feeling.
At this moment, all the sounds stopped, and there were so many people in the entire shooting space, but it was so quiet, so silent that there was not the slightest noise.
At this time, Gu Xiaofan suddenly felt the feeling he had experienced on the art stage...... It is sacred and solemn.
It seems that the square inch in the photographic lens here is the supreme existence in the whole world.
All those distracting thoughts and thoughts in his heart were washed away by this sense of sacredness, and Gu Xiaofan felt that his heart was so clear.
He looked at the actors, the cameramen, all the people behind him...... He knew that at this time, the director should say something, and he was ready to say some polite words, but at the moment he couldn't say anything, because at this moment, there is no gorgeous sentence in the world that can be more powerful than two words.
"Power on~!!"
Everyone only felt the stuffiness suppressed in their chests, which was dispelled the moment they heard the word, and everyone's eyes were full of enthusiasm.
The most glorious moment for these ordinary people has finally begun.
Due to the fact that he had to catch up with the opening of the barrage network, the filming time was extremely tight, and Gu Xiaofan planned to broadcast it in the mode of a weekly drama, with 4 episodes a week.
Although except for the filming of the first episode, there are several indoor filming locations in this building, and there is no need to transfer, but the intensity of filming every week is almost the same as that of an American drama.
So the crew also learned the Korean model and was divided into two groups, A and B, to shoot at the same time. The ten main actors are divided into two groups each day to shoot different scenes.
Since it is a sitcom, there is no need to have too high requirements for the director's lens and rhythm, Gu Xiaofan and Deputy Director Lin also reached a tacit understanding of the shooting style after exchanging opinions several times.
Group A is in charge of Gu Xiaofan, mainly filming Zeng Xiaoxian, Hu Yifei, Lu Zhanbo, and Lin Wanyu.
and Group B is in charge of Deputy Director Lin, filming the scenes of Lu Ziqiao, Guan Gu Magic, Chen Meijia, and Zhang Wei.
The overall scenes of those two groups of actors were filmed together in the end.
After the grouping ended, everyone in the crew noticed a strange phenomenon, the actors in the play did not practice according to the group, but memorized their lines in a corner.
Everyone's expressions were extremely serious and focused, and there was a strange fighting spirit in their eyes, and the atmosphere suddenly became strange.
"Sister Shi...... What are they doing? Lou Yixiao asked Liu Shishi with some incomprehension.
"Don't you know?" Liu Shishi's clear face showed a hint of provocative expression:
"In a real crew, only the director will look at the effect of the whole story from the overall situation, and for the actors, they see it from their own perspective in each shot, and they are the real protagonists, not that if you have more lines and many scenes in the scene in the script, others will consciously and automatically cooperate with you, it is the director's job to assign scenes, and there is only one thing for actors to do...... It is the instinct of every actor to make everyone who sees the camera look at me. ”
Saying that, Liu Shishi looked at the simple Lou Yixiao and said coldly:
"To a certain extent, performance is the art of showing the charm of their own performance, the space in the camera is the battlefield where the actors rely on the performance of the duel, if they lose, the scene in the same shot will be snatched away, everyone wants to be the focus of the camera, lines, body, emotion, each actor will use all means to exude their own light......"
Lou Yixiao was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood, this is not the school group that everyone recognized Gu Xiaofan as the boss of Yanying before, in the real crew, everyone doesn't know each other, and the actors are not only comrades-in-arms, but also face-to-face competitors.
"Does the director care?" Lou Yixiao was a little puzzled.
Liu Shishi unconsciously looked at Gu Xiaofan at this time, and muttered:
"In fact, this kind of healthy competition between actors is of great help to the plot, you see in "Infernal Affairs", Zeng Zhiwei and Huang Qiusheng have not robbed Liang Chaowei of a lot of scenes, but "Infernal Affairs" is much better than other Liang Chaowei movies......
Usually in the face of this situation, the director has only two options, either, use his strong control ability to restrain and adjust the actors' performances, stimulate their potential, let them perform the effect they want, and keep the whole story in its own style on the premise of the unity of the story.
Either adopt pure liberalism, let the actors compete with each other benignly, use their own abilities to fight for the focus of attention, let the actors give full play to their potential, and focus on the charm of the characters...... It's up to the actors themselves to adjust the flow of the whole story.
The former is the style of leader-type directors like Zhang Yimou and Feng Xiaogang, and the latter is the free type of Wang Jiawei and Jiang Wen...... Each has its own advantages. ”
