Li Xiaole pointed at Jeff with an expressionless face: "You show me now, how you are sad, for example, Henry has passed away now, how should you behave at the scene of his funeral." ”

Jeff was stunned for a moment and then nodded helplessly, pondered for a while, and then leaned on Matthew's body with a sad expression, crying and sobbing and grabbing his arm, the whole person was trembling, and muttering: "Grandpa...... Grandpa......"

Hollywood's young actors who can act in movies have at least five years of acting experience in stage plays and TV stations, and their acting skills are far more mature than those of young actors in other countries.

"What, isn't that right?" Jeff wiped away a handful of tears, feeling embarrassed.

"It's typical method acting, you're using your past memories, right? Tell me what you were thinking when you performed this part? Li Xiaole shook his head and asked him.

"I was very sad to think that my dog had died." Jeff rubbed his head in embarrassment.

"Well, no wonder, so your grief is superficial, Matthew, Celine, you are all the same." Li Xiaole glanced at Matthew:

"Although the methodological acting method is very good, it just makes you actors who are too experienced in acting form their own set of fixed patterns of emotional expression, revealing a sense of ingenuity, and the performance is all using their own habits and skills, what movements, eyes, gestures, lines, you are all the same, I now need you to have a real sense of sadness from the bottom of your heart."

"A real sense of sadness?" Matthew frowned, turned his head to look at Henry, a little confused.

"Real sadness has a sense of inner 'stillness', all the external images have to be ignored, and you are completely focused on your own heart, you think, when you feel extremely sad, do you still have the energy to think about what to do, when to shed tears?" Li Xiaole looked at Matthew:

"Matthew, don't cry now, don't make a big move, don't say any lines, you show me the emotion of sadness."

As soon as Matthew heard these requests, he immediately seemed a little flustered, and suddenly asked him to throw away all the methods he had mastered, and he didn't know how to act at all, and his eyes seemed to be unable to freeze for a long time...... Squeezed his eyebrows again, sniffled again, and after a long time, Zuihou shook his head with a wry smile helplessly:

"No, I really don't know how to perform, if I don't use these external skills, I can't mobilize my emotions at all if it's so sudden."

In fact, the essence of acting is actually very simple, it lies in imagination, imagining that you are in a certain situation, and then expressing this emotional reaction, but the problem is that most people's imagination is very lacking, for example, now Matthew is desperately thinking about what it would be like if his father died, but he can't imagine what he will feel like at all, and he can't grieve it, it's like a person who has insomnia desperately telling himself to sleep, don't think about anything, his thoughts just don't listen to his control, Instead, he continued to think crankily and couldn't sleep even more.

The so-called method school mainly relies on various emotional memories to drive his emotions, but for a person with limited experience, he can't express the emotional memories he has not experienced, and Matthew is like this now, his performance is very false and lacks real feelings.

"Director, in fact, to be honest, I don't think it's a big problem, and it's not acting in a literary film, ordinary audiences who watch comedy don't care about it at all, and they can't tell the difference." Looking at Li Xiaole's look of "You really can't do it", Matthew defended himself a little helplessly.

"No, this is a huge misunderstanding, although fans don't have much appreciation, but human perception of emotions is common, even if it's just a few seconds of footage, a 'false' sadness, a 'real' and heavy sadness brings a completely different emotional impact." Li Xiaole pointed at Scarlett with an expressionless face:

"Scarlett, you can do it, or do what I just asked."

"Hmm." Scarlett came over and walked to the middle of several people, bowed her head and brewed her emotions, Matthew and Jeff both shook their heads amusedly, this kind of performance called out by the director and stared at was too stressful, and it was very embarrassing...... It's hard to get into the state no matter how much emotions are brewed.

It's just that Scarlett just lowered her head for a few seconds, and everyone obviously felt that the room seemed to be quiet suddenly, and everyone found that although she just lowered her head and didn't make a move, everyone could feel that she was focusing on every subtle emotion in her heart at the moment to let it freeze, and other people's thoughts seemed to be guided into a solid state of emotion by her, and the smiles on Matthew and Jeff's faces couldn't help but freeze.

When about 10 seconds later, Scarlett opened her eyes again and looked at Henry's old face, everyone looked at her slightly heaving chest, listening to the sound of trembling breathing, and the trembling of green eyes like a lake, the desperate sadness and pain in her eyes emanated from her body like a tidal wave, Henry was obviously sitting in front of everyone, but in Scarlett's eyes, everyone seemed to feel that they were going to lose Henry at any time......

Obviously just "pretending", but Scarlett's eyes, the rhythm of her breathing, and every subtle and imperceptible movement of her body made people feel the suffocating sense of despair in her heart...... Grief is like a silent note, permeating and undulating in this space...... It makes the hearts of those who watch tremble......

"Henry~~" Selene suddenly stepped forward and hugged Henry with some fear, for fear of losing him.

"Alright." Li Xiaole made a gentle "pause" gesture with his hand, Scarlett slowly slowed down, breathed softly, and didn't slow down for a while, Henry and Julie both nodded unconsciously, holding approving glances.

"What the hell is going on, it's incredible...... I don't understand, Scarlett ~ How did you do it? Matthew finally couldn't help but open his mouth slightly, the same sadness, but he could feel the impact of Scarlett's feelings a hundred times stronger than his.

"Because she is more focused than you and devotes herself to grief, instead of just pretending to be ......sad," Li Xiaole turned to Matthew and explained:

"All haode actors have one thing in common, that is, they can touch people's hearts, make people resonate, and the prerequisite for touching the hearts of others is to face themselves sincerely, from self-sincerity to people's hearts, to resonate, she has no hesitation from the beginning into the shijie that 'Henry' has passed away, she focuses on that shijie, so that she forgets reality when she performs, and the falsehood of her heart becomes the real reality......"

Matthew looked at Scarlett who hadn't spoken until now, breathing heavily, while desperately holding back his tears, and couldn't help but marvel in his heart, just a 30-second scene She was able to mobilize such amazing emotions, there were no lines, no big movements, and no tears, just relying on the inner emotions and subtle expressions such as eyes to show the emotions that overwhelm people, which is really amazing.

"You don't have to do anything now, just practice this inner focus on the sad scene, imagine that you have lost Henry, you must put aside all thoughts, you must stay focused, Henry, you lie here, give them some hints." Li Xiaole commanded.

So Matthew, Jeff, and Selene all began to try to close their eyes as requested, constantly trying to tell themselves like Scarlett, "Henry is dead, Henry is dead." "Focus all your conscious thoughts on this thing.

Li Xiaole and Scarlett Henry were quietly observing them, and soon they found that Jeff and Selene were too impetuous to concentrate their chaotic thoughts on one point, and only Matthew, who was frowning slightly, had a first glimpse of the door......

When Matthew seemed to be about to enter that sad illusory shijie at this moment, he only felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, and unconsciously began to twist his body to make himself more comfortable, but such a move immediately jumped out of that feeling, and after repeating it many times, it was all like this, Matthew could only open his eyes and say:

"I can't do ......? I'm also trying to dig into my inner emotional memory, but why can't I get in? ~”

"Really?" Li Xiaole frowned at him in disappointment and said:

"But I think the root cause is that you are fundamentally weak like a girl in your heart, and you don't dare to face sad emotions at all, and your subconscious mind is always habitually avoiding when you should be involved, and what you have to do now is to overcome your inner fragility and face this pain."

Matthew has one of the biggest characteristics of acting, that is, he can be very lively in scenes with lines and actions, so he can be like a fish in water in comedy, but once he puts away these things he is good at and acts with his inner emotions, as long as he quiets down, he always looks very awkward, which is also a common problem of many comedians, Zhou Xingxing, Jim Carrey also had such problems in the early stage.

Matthew had actually found a little bit of that feeling when he was silent just now, but once he felt the discomfort in his heart, he immediately twisted his body, or spoke to interrupt, instinctively jumping out of this emotion, Li Xiaole just asked him not to move, not to cry, not to say lines to express sadness, just to get rid of his bad habit.

"Hey Lee, I'm such an optimistic person, I can't help it." Matthew laughed wryly, a little bit of a broken jar, which made Henry and Julie shake their heads.
