Chapter 28: The First Experience of Performance

Someone has said that no matter how awesome you are online, or how much you pretend to be online. In reality, you still need to keep doing things according to the rules.

Gao Fushuai may have some privileges in reality, and most of the characters who point out the country on the Internet are often not satisfactory in reality.

This sentence is a true portrayal of Ding Yang's life, although he has tens of thousands of fans on the Singularity Chinese network, hundreds of thousands of readers chase his books every day, and it is obviously the rhythm of "one book to seal the gods", and the future annual income is just around the corner.

But in reality, he is just an extras who are so hard that he can't be forced anymore. endured humiliation and moved forward humbly, but fortunately, the crew of "Sword and Fairy III" had to give face to "Sister Yun", but no one embarrassed her. can also appreciate a stunning beauty like Li Feier every day, and Ding Yang's life in the crew is also comfortable.

In his previous life, Ding Yang thought that maybe one day, just like the plot in the novel, in the process of playing tricks, he would suddenly encounter a situation such as a supporting actor who was sick or had a car accident...... Now he has long lost this kind of unrealistic fantasy.

This world is very realistic, there is no bond of interest, and no one will take the initiative to help you.

Lean on the mountain, the mountain will fall, rely on the water, the water will run, you can only rely on yourself.

Now that things in the novel are basically on the right track, then on the other hand, it is time to put another dream related to him, filming, on the agenda.

Ji Sheng's classmate Huang Pingtan will return to China at the end of next month, indicating that the new movie will start filming within three months at the latest, and there is not much time left for Ding Yang.

Huang Pingtan's new movie is called "Those Years", which takes the love story of Fang Tingting and Chen Lin as the main line, describing the emotions and life process of the post-80s. In the narrative spanning ten years, there are beautiful youth campus life, discussions and warnings involving juvenile delinquency, historical events such as the 80th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China, the welcome of the new century, and the success of the third Olympic bid, the decadence and confusion of college days, the difficult struggle after work, and the current situation of married life, etc., which truly record the growth trajectory of the post-80s generation and their imprint with a sense of the times from a unique perspective.

This is a movie that plays the nostalgic youth card, because movies with this theme have been very popular in recent years.

Huang Pingtan, as a returnee director who came back from gilding in a foreign country, is also very cautious about his first film, of course, it is impossible to make a movie with a large investment and high risk, so as not to stumble, and would rather retreat to the second best and make a popular movie first. As for artistry, hehe, that's what a great director pursues after he becomes famous.

This kind of nostalgic youth movie has no depth and no difficulty. The plot is also very casual, and a bunch of handsome men and beautiful women are filmed casually, but there is an audience, and Director Huang said that he is familiar with it and has no difficulty. In fact, the previous life also proved that this movie did have a good box office response, which played a good role in attracting investment for Director Huang's new films in the future.

There are three main male characters in this movie, the male protagonist Chen Lin, Chen Lin's nemesis Xiao Liu Hao, Chen Lin's rival in love, and the heroine's ex-boyfriend Su Jingran.

Of course, the male No. 1 Ding Yang is not delusional, it is impossible for the investor to agree to arrange it to a rookie actor, the role of Liu Hao is a fat man, and the only direction that Ding Yang can work towards is the male protagonist's rival in love, the villain No. 1 "Su Jingran".

In his previous life, a third-rate male star took over this role, but he had not been popular for more than ten years, but because of this role, his popularity skyrocketed, and he followed up with several good works and became one of the first-line male stars.

This role is not a positive role, and there are not too many scenes, just a playboy in the game world, a rich second generation, but if the interpretation is in place, it is easy to attract fans.

Ding Yang has seen this movie, and he remembers every plot very clearly, and he observes the actor's performance to improve his acting skills.

This actor actually has good acting skills, and in the process of playing the rich second generation, there are too many details worth learning from. The subtle provocation of the eyebrows alone appears in the shot no less than five times, and each time the corresponding emotion is different, and the subtle amplitude of the provocation is also different.

This is very intuitive for Ding Yang to feel, what kind of eyebrows are raised, and what kind of environment is suitable.

is not only raising eyebrows and frowning, the actor also has more details to reflect the inner tension of the character, the curvature of the smile at the corner of the mouth, the amplitude of the chin raised, and the closed eyes of Cheng Dรน, all of which are performance skills worthy of Xu Hao's learning and imitation.

Not to mention the very difficult eyes, which are in harmony with the overall expression.

Of course, Ding Yang also understands that acting skills cannot be practiced overnight, and these very flexible facial movements need to be practiced very actively with all the muscle groups on the face in order to do what you want. Otherwise, the average person has not practiced, and if you make him laugh, he will be more ugly than crying.

Because I haven't been trained, I haven't deliberately coordinated, and I suddenly want to deliberately perform, and my nerves can't react at all.

Ding Yang held a small mirror in his hand and made various expressions in front of the mirror.

Some people say that seven points of ten acting skills are in the face, which may not be all true, but the performance of facial expressions occupies an extremely important position in the performance of the whole person, but it is definitely true.

Ding Yang has a handsome face, there is no doubt about that, but ...... is still the same sentence, whether you are handsome or not, beautiful or not, it really has nothing to do with good or bad acting skills.

Even if you make a vase, you need vase-level acting skills.

He knew that although he had been in the extras circle for many years in his previous life, and had spent money on several acting training classes, he might not be able to go anywhere higher when it came to acting skills.

But if he wants to be an actor, especially a good actor, he knows that he has a lot of lessons to make up.

Although he has not received systematic acting training from a formal film school, he has been mixed up in Hengdian for many years, and he has been in contact with hundreds of actors, not thousands or hundreds, but he has accumulated some of his own skills and methods. Although the road is a little wild, it doesn't matter, it's easy to use.

Moreover, storing the countless wonderful characters and countless wonderful performance pictures in his mind is his real and best teacher.

Tom Hanks's honesty, Gary Oldman's nervousness, Morgan Freeman's lightness, Marlon Brando's epee bladelessness, Al Pacino's calm atmosphere, Johnny Depp's bewitching and evil spirit, Tony Leung's melancholy electric eyes, Ge You's plain nature, and Fa Ge's domineering smile...... And, of course, Robert DeLoney......

The so-called "ten points of acting, seven points in the face" has a second half of the sentence, called "seven points in the face, six points in the eyes".

Ding Yang has a pair of beautiful eyes, and there is no doubt about this.

Joy, anger, sorrow, happiness......

Facing the mirror, Ding Yang constantly changed his expression, especially paying attention to his eyes.

He smiled most naturally.

Crisp, clean, and warm.

And then, a teasing smile.

The corners of his mouth are slightly raised, his smile is toothless, his eyes are bright and quiet, and there seems to be a hidden smile in it, but there is a touch of indescribable melancholy.

Tired.

People who have not experienced training suddenly start to use a lot of facial muscles, and after a little time, there will be a feeling of twitching in the face.

Looking at your own eyes for a long time will also make your eyes feel unusually sour and want to cry.

Although he didn't want to continue, he understood an ancient adage better than others:

No pain, no gain.
