The snow obscured almost all of Huo Que's sight, and the houses that had been used to seeing before and were almost ignored became the only scenery to see in the snow.

The scene they are going to shoot today is that after the protagonist's parents leave, the protagonist goes into the supermarket to buy a toothbrush, and then meets the old man Ma, played by Gabby Esther, who is afraid of his brother Buzz McAllister and tells him that the old man is a psychopathic murderer, so he runs out of the supermarket without paying, and is chased by a fat policeman, who escapes from the frozen lake.

This scene is very important, and it is also the biggest test for Abel.

Previously, the protagonist felt that it was a happy thing for his parents and brother to leave, because there was no one to control him, he could do whatever he wanted, but after meeting Old Man Ma, his mind changed, because Old Man Ma made him afraid.

As a child, he is very sensitive to a sense of security, and if he suddenly loses his parents by his side, he is very unaccustomed to it, and it is from this moment that the protagonist knows that he is not used to it, so he begins to miss his previous life.

The filming took place in a park not far from the town, where there is a river with a thick layer of ice at the current temperature.

There will be a lot of supporting characters in this scene. If this kind of scene was filmed somewhere in Hollywood, it would be easy to find a bunch of extras to come over, but this is Illinois, so if you want to find extras on set, you have to find someone playing in the park.

This is no way, of course, Huo Que also did this.

In fact, for the audience, this kind of drama is definitely not unfamiliar, when watching a certain movie or TV series, you will often see some eyes looking at the camera with puzzlement and doubt, and even pointing at the camera. In fact, this is not looking for professional extras, or even extras, so I filmed the street scene.

Huo Que used to see such scenes often, he felt that this was very affecting the viewing effect for him, since he became a director, how could he not let this kind of thing happen, the difficulty lies in this, if you want to make people who have never acted in a role face the camera for the first time without panicking, how easy is it?

The people who play in the park know that someone is going to shoot a movie here, and they are also very curious, and when they hear that they can see themselves on the screen, more than 90% of them are willing to be extras for free, and they also bring their own props to act, skates and skates, and their own clothes are props.

When Huo Que came to the scene, people who were originally skating on the river rushed over.

However, they were disappointed that there were no actors and familiar faces they wanted to see in this play.

"May I ask you are the Chinese director Mr. Huo Que who filmed "This Man is from Earth"?" A girl with flowing blond hair suddenly burst out of the crowd, turned around gracefully, slipped on her skates, and stopped less than two meters in front of Huo Que.

"My name is Huo Que." Although he is not a big name, he can be recognized by people in this kind of place, and he can be regarded as a celebrity.

"You were handsome and glamorous when you showed up at the Sundance Film Festival." The girl blinked: "I can't imagine that you are so young to be able to make such a profound movie as "This Man is from Earth". ”

Huo Que was a little embarrassed, not because so many people were paying attention to him, but because "This Man is from Earth" was not his work.

The people on the side didn't know what he was embarrassed for, and some of them couldn't help but laugh.

Alice was also a little surprised when she saw Huo Que's watch, because she had seen Huo Que's watch at the Sundance Awards Ceremony, calm and calm. Why is it that a girl is asked in two sentences now, is it because this girl is so beautiful?

Alice glanced at the girl who looked okay, and couldn't help sneering in her heart, the boss of the dignified Kirin Pictures didn't even have this concentration. Thinking of this, a woman's unique comparison thought came to Alice's heart, I remember the first time I met him, he didn't look like this, didn't I look like this girl? Alice frowned, and secretly scolded in her heart for being blind.

But now is not the time for her to despise Huo Que, the assistant's job is to escort the director, she walked in front of Huo Que, blocked the sight of the onlookers, waved her hand and said: "Everyone, it's an honor to be able to film here, if you can actively cooperate, I think after this movie is released, this place will attract more people's attention, and you may appear in the camera." But only if you get our director to work. ”

"Aren't directors all about drama? If we don't tell us anything, how can we do it well with our first acting experience in our lives? The skating girl just now relied on the height of her skates, and then put her toes on tiptoe, looked directly at Huo Que from the top of Alice's head, shook her hand and said to him: "Director Huo, don't you teach us how to act?" ”

Looking at the girl waving her hands in front of her and her posture was very graceful, Alice really wanted to put on her skates and dance around, took a deep breath and said: "Please keep quiet, if you are willing to act, we will shoot here, and the director is willing to talk to you, if you are so noisy all the time, then we have to give up this place to shoot another scene." ”

The slight threat did the trick, and the crowd fell silent, and the girl stuck out her tongue and obediently slid away from Alice.

No matter where you are in the country, no matter where you are, celebrities are an indispensable topic in daily life. Even in ancient China, it was the same, otherwise why would Master Li and Chen Yuanyuan be famous all over the world?

In modern society, celebrities are a profession that many people dream of, with a sense of superiority that is supported by thousands of people, and they can make a lot of money, so many people had dreams of being stars when they were young.

These skaters on the river may have given up on that dream, but they are looking forward to seeing them on screen. It's like a certain extras who played a passer-by who didn't have any lines and was shot to death as soon as he came on the stage, when his friend was watching this TV series, he would definitely say to him, "At some time in the first few episodes, I played the person lying on the ground and pretending to be dead." Although the role is insignificant, I feel very proud and have a lot of face.

Huo Que walked in front of the crowd and was very polite to this group of extras who didn't want any remuneration: "Actually, acting is very simple, that is nature." We'll have a camera on you later, and you don't have to look at the camera, or even forget that there's a camera here, you just skate here as usual. ”

"It's as simple as that?" A middle-aged woman looked at Huo Que with suspicion: "Is that acting?" ”

Huo Que explained with a smile: "Acting is life, when you act, it is play, and when you act, you are life." Isn't life all about being free? ”

The middle-aged woman seemed to understand Huo Que's words, and nodded seriously.

Huo Que told them a few more points, and then began the preliminary preparations.

Persuaded by Huo Que's "teaching", the people who skated on the river also dispersed, but they were not in a hurry to leave, and they were also curious about how the movie was made, so many people who had something to leave also stayed, and even after knowing that a movie was going to be made here, they called their friends, and the result was that the number of people in the park tripled in just two hours.

This made Huo Que cry and laugh, what he was most afraid of when making a movie was that there were people watching, not to mention that the noisy sound they brought would affect the work of the recording engineer, even if they didn't say anything and went there, it would affect the performance of the actors. After all, the actors in this crew are all young actors who have never seen strong winds and waves, and even if they don't feel worried in the face of hundreds or thousands of onlookers, they will be more or less nervous.

But this is not his place, it is also their right for them to come and watch, what can Huo Que do?

All the work was done, starting with the scene of Abel running to the surface of the river and then falling to his knees and sliding across the river.

“action！”

With Huo Que's order, the clapperboard fired, and then Able glanced backwards at the fat policeman running towards him, and fell to his knees on the ice smartly......

"Stop!"

As soon as it started, Huo Que called a stop.

He stood up and walked over to the policeman who ran behind him, this actor is a porter in the props crew, in order to earn extra money, sometimes he will also act as an extras in the crew, and he also recommended himself to play this role, but as soon as the movie started, Huo Que found a problem, he was too hard when he acted, which made people see at a glance that he was acting.

"Mr. Bobby." Huo Que walked up to him, looked at him in a police uniform and said softly: "Actually, you are not catching a thief, because you have lines, and the lines are shouting children, why does he call children instead of thieves?" Because he was kind, he didn't really want to catch him, but he felt that there must be something wrong with such a young child stealing something, and he just wanted to ask him why he was taking something. ”

Movies have an artistic conception, maybe a scene, or a line, and if an actor wants to play this play well, he must be the first to understand that artistic conception, so that the audience can integrate. If you just read the lines according to the script, what else do you need to do with the film major?

Poppy scratched his head, it seemed that he hadn't absorbed these things that Huo Que said at once, and after thinking about it, he asked, "But I'm a policeman." ”

Huo Que waved his hand: "The police are also people, let's put it this way, we don't treat this as acting." What would you do if you met a seven or eight-year-old kid stealing something on the street? ”

"I'll dissuade him not to do that." Poppy replied with a sincere face.

"And what if the store is going to beat this kid?" Huo Que asked again.

"Then I'll pay for him for stealing." Poppy didn't hesitate and said, "Then the idea is to contact his parents." ”

"That's right." Huo Xiaoxiao nodded: "The protagonist is a child, although you are a policeman, you still care for him." So even if you arrest him, you want to help him, don't you? ”

"It should be!" Poppy finally understood Huo Que's words.

"Okay, then come again." Huo Que turned around: "Everyone is ready." ”
