Chapter 26: Taste
Perhaps for most people in this world, the experience of a lifetime is dull and boring, without the ups and downs of love in film and television dramas, and there is no magnificent wave written in the legendary era in the history books. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 However, even in the most ordinary life, looking through their long memories for decades, you can still find a few colorful scenes.
For example, on a sunny summer day when I was young, I saw a beautiful girl in a white dress passing by the window and breaking into my sight by looking up by chance. Or in July, when I picked up a letter from the post office with the name of the university that I had in mind. There is also an anniversary when he is almost standing, and he takes over the delicate new life that flows with his own blood from the hands of the nurse. and suddenly looked back in your spare time, and suddenly realized that you can no longer hold the pair of warm palms that help you toddler and accompany you through most of your life......
We grow old with the passage of time, but the fresh faces that stay in our memories will remain young forever. Just like a photo frozen in a camera, an image burned on film is always the most beautiful look at the beginning.
Compared with more advanced film and television works such as TV dramas and movies, MV can basically be called pediatrics. It doesn't require the actor's superb acting skills, nor does it require the director to quietly structure each shot to tell the story behind the picture, it only needs to do two things. The first is that the picture is good enough, and the second is that it will not feel abrupt after being paired with music.
Therefore, the filming cycle of an MV is very short, such as the one that Li Mingcheng is currently participating in, and Choi Van Joy plans to complete all the pre-shooting work in one day.
How to say that Li Mingcheng was also a graduate of the acting major of Pearl Drama Academy in his previous life, maybe his acting skills are not enough to support a big-screen movie, but it is more than enough to cope with an MV with almost no technical content.
There are not many shots in the whole MV, and Van Joy divided it into five groups, so excluding the part where Taylor left the country alone, there are actually only three groups of scenes with Li Mingcheng's role, two of which are Li Mingcheng's personal one-man shows, and one is the plot that needs to interact with Taylor.
Before shooting the first set of shots, Fan Joy was still a little worried that Li Mingcheng, the "chick", would be at a loss, but when the shooting officially began, he soon found that the Chinese kid's sense of the camera was actually stronger than that of the female singer in the morning, and his performance in front of the camera was very natural, and he could quickly feedback the feelings and expressions he needed to the camera. The entire first set of shots was so easily repeated.
So after shouting "click", Fan Joy ran to Li Mingcheng, patted him on the shoulder, and praised him with a smile: "Leo, you behaved very well, continue to maintain this state." ”
The next set of shots is the difficulty that Van Joy circled before shooting, the end of the entire music video, and the only emotional fluctuation in the entire video.
Before the start of filming, Fan Joy called Li Mingcheng to him, did not take the script or the storyboard, but said lightly: "Leo, you just need to remember that you are now a boy who has just lost his first love." ”
Hey, what you're saying is really no different from saying it and not saying it!
Li Mingcheng is in his heart, he can't show it on the surface, he still understands the rules on the set, and the director of the world is the biggest.
So I had to nod and say, "I probably understand a little, or you can give me some time to think about it." ”
"Okay, think for yourself." Van Joy nodded.
Li Mingcheng walked away a few steps, casually found an empty stool to sit down, and looked at the wheat field with his chin on his chin and thought to himself.
First love...... What does it feel like?
He suddenly remembered that in his previous life, when he was in high school, a love that had ended before it even began.
To be exact, it's not love, it's a secret love at most.
The other party is a girl in the same class, with excellent grades, white skin and beautiful appearance, and she will be a proper goddess after ten years.
At that time, Xiao Li Mingcheng once firmly believed that she was the most perfect girl in the world, and almost all the imaginary daydream endings were to hold her delicate hand in the holy church.
Because she chose science, Li Mingcheng, whose biology and chemistry scores combined could not surpass geography, also resolutely chose science. Because she once inadvertently revealed to her friends that she likes boys who can cook, Li Mingcheng, who has never done housework in his life, went to the hotel to work part-time jobs in the summer of his freshman year of high school just to learn cooking skills.
He tried his best to be what she liked, but on a sunny afternoon during the holidays, he watched her being carried by a fat uncle into the city's famous love suites.
So after that summer vacation, Li Mingcheng quickly degenerated from a student in a key class to a famous campus gangster.
So after that summer vacation, Li Mingcheng forgot how to like someone.
Recalling this, Li Mingcheng felt that he had found the feeling he wanted. He got up and walked up to Fan Joy and said, "I'm ready, let's get started." ”
Then, in the lens of the monitor, Taylor, who was leaning behind Van Joy, saw such a scene.
A fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy got out of a dusty old car and slowly stepped up the stairs of a small wooden house by the side of a country road, every step he took was so cautious that it seemed that he would break the mossy planks under his feet at the slightest exertion.
Finally he walked to the closed wooden door of the house, and then he saw the envelope on the carpet in the doorway.
He read the name on the envelope, and for a moment it stood still like a sculpture. His expression froze for a second, but his inky eyes were filled with incredible sadness, not so intense that it was heartbreaking, but it was enough to hurt his heart.
So Taylor, who was in front of the camera, suddenly felt as if a pair of invisible hands were gripping his heart hard, and the heavy pain in his chest made him almost unable to breathe.
…………
The separate shots of the two leading actors ended smoothly. Next is the interaction between men and women that Li Mingcheng is looking forward to.
Fan Joy asked the whole group to rest for a while, saying that they would wait until the sun went down to start filming this scene, because the sun was the most beautiful at that time.
Look, if someone else is a director, his artistic attainments are higher, as if he wants someone, as soon as he hears that there is a kiss scene, he is so anxious.
Staying up anxiously until the evening, Li Mingcheng thought that there was nothing wrong with this time, right? Can you let us kiss Fangze?
At this time, Fan Joy spoke again, considering that the two actors are too young, and one of them is still a foreign friend, so let's not really go on the ground, let's borrow a seat.
Li Mingcheng: "......"
Director, you are so "considerate"!
Before filming began, Fan Joy called the two leading actors to him for the last time.
He looked at Li Mingcheng, then at Taylor, and then said, "I won't say anything more, you just need to remember one word - happiness." ”
"Got it?"
"Understood." "Understood." The boys and girls nodded in unison.
"Very well," Fan Joy clapped his hands and turned his head to exclaim, "Field officer, bring a little stool!" After speaking, he turned around and smiled at Li Mingcheng, "Leo, you will stand on the stool later." ”
"Poof-" Daisy, who was listening not far away, laughed as if she was about to die.
…………
"All departments ready!"
"Camera on standby!"
"Let's go!"
With Fan Joy's order, Li Mingcheng quickly entered the performance state.
The muscles of his legs tense on the low stool, he lowered his head, looking at the girl in front of him who was half a head shorter than himself, looking at her rhythmic eyelashes, looking at her pink lip makeup, and looking at his own shadow reflected in her onyx-like eyes.
Then Li Mingcheng felt the camera gradually zooming in, and guessed that the screen of the monitor should have switched from a close-up of the two of them to a close-up of their faces, so he bent down slightly, stretched out his hands to support the girl's delicate shoulders, and approached the girl's delicate face.
The two of them breathed rapidly, and they could feel the hot breath of each other's exhalation gliding over the soft fluff of their cheeks.
Estimating that this distance should be about the same, Li Mingcheng stopped his movements, slowly closed his eyes and made an intoxicated expression.
Even though it was dark in front of him, it was enough for Li Mingcheng to vaguely sketch in his mind the outline of the girl's face that was almost in close contact with him. She should have the same expression as herself now, perhaps more nervous than herself, because the other party's breathing that fell into her ears was a little heavy.
Smelling the fresh fragrance coming from the girl's body, Li Mingcheng was a little uneasy.
The next moment, Li Mingcheng suddenly felt the sound of the other party's breathing suddenly stop, followed by a sudden approach to the warm body temperature and the sound of a clearer heartbeat.
He was just about to open his eyes to see what was going on, when a warm and sweet touch came from his lips.
Li Mingcheng's whole body froze, and even if he didn't have to open his eyes, he could know what was blocking his dry lips at this time.
Then the lower lip was suddenly lightly bitten by the hard teeth, and the tightly closed lips under the pain of the nerve endings reflexively opened a slit, and then a moist little tongue playfully penetrated through the open opening, and the faint fragrance of the same smell as the girl's body suddenly overflowed the mouth.
Oh, it turned out to be the fragrance of orchids.
