Chapter 143 [Xiao Wu] test shooting
Jia Damin immediately knew that it was impossible for things to change, and his eldest brother, once it was a fixed matter, it would be difficult to change.
It's like saying that he went to the film academy and took the exam three or four times before he was admitted. If it's an ordinary person, then if you can't pass the test once, you'll be a flash.
But in such a matter, no matter what it is, Jia Damin didn't dare to refute Jia Zhangke's meaning, and said very unhappily: "My eldest brother has said this thing, don't hesitate, he has a big money, and it is not bad money, just give you 10,000 yuan, you can accept it."
If you become a movie star in the future, don't forget that it came out of here. "Since it can't be changed, Jia Damin hopes to sell his favor to Meimei.
It was only at this time that Mei Mei was sure of one thing in her heart, that is, in such a situation, she was really selected to make a movie. A singer, mixed with society, can have such a chance to shoot a movie, this can be said to be the smoke on the ancestral grave.
Therefore, Mei Mei immediately said: "Thank you, Brother Min, thank you director, I will definitely work hard." ”
Jia Zhangke said earnestly: "You have to be mentally prepared for this, being an actor is not as easy to do as you think, in such a situation, in fact, you have to work hard to show your inner world."
In addition, he signed a contract with the drama department and received the script, pay attention to confidentiality, if the script is leaked through you at this time, then you will have to bear legal responsibility. ”
This made Mei Mei surprised for a while, but she just said this. It's still Jia Zhangke's exaggeration, no matter how it is. On such a question, it seems that only those regular crews will have such a requirement.
Jia Zhangke's own crew was originally a grass stage team. It will not be protected by the law at all. Therefore, in fact, even if Mei Mei leaks such a piece of news, it may not cause a big image.
It's just that Jia Zhangke said this, which can be regarded as a warning to Meimei. On such a question, no matter how you say it, it is necessary to show that our crew is a regular crew, so you have to be honest with me. The director lets you perform whatever kind of performance you want. If you dare to leak secrets, that same thing will be cleaned up.
Anyway, this is a warning, but no matter how it is said, in this epoxy automatic thing, Jia Zhangke did show the kind of composure that a director should have. At this time, Mei Mei nodded excitedly and went to find the drama manager.
And at this moment, Jia Zhangke breathed a long sigh of relief and said: "If I can't find a suitable heroine, then on such a question, I have no bottom in my heart about how to shoot in the future."
Fortunately, Mei Mei is a person who is more suitable for such a role. It's a pity that he is not a professional actor. If so, then on such a problem, in fact, no matter what it is, it can have a perfect performance. ”
Pity. No matter what, there are regrets, but at this time, it can be regarded as a pretty good result for Jia Zhangke not to delay the shooting. And just when Jia Zhangke had already set up the scene. Preparing to start filming, some of the patrons of the cabaret were not directly driven away. But it will also be driven into a corner.
Brother Da Min personally went out on the horse, at such a time. Who dares not to give face to the people in the song hall.
Therefore, in such a situation, in fact, there are still customers in the song hall, which means that everyone is watching silently, hoping to be able to observe how those actors act in movies up close.
For ordinary people, this is very curious, and with the suppression of Brother Damin, who dares to find it uncomfortable. Therefore, even if there are guests in the song hall, they are honestly smashing and looking at the fat.
After all, it is said that on such a problem, film shooting is a serious issue.
At this time, Jia Zhangke glanced at the scene of the Yaque Martial God, this is not called a song hall, since it is a song hall, then on such a problem, there is that kind of bustling, intoxicated young heart under the lights. This also requires a complex environment.
Therefore, if the customers in the song hall are all sitting there honestly like three good students, this is not a song hall at all.
Therefore, at this time, Jia Zhangke said helplessly: "Damin, go and tell them that the east half of the song hall is their place, and there is no problem for them to play what they want in the east half." ”
In any case, it is impossible to detach from reality when shooting a movie, and in such a situation, the guests of these song halls are actually the background boards, and if these background boards are not moved, they will be meaningless.
That's why Jia Zhangke let everyone move. Jia Damin doesn't know how to shoot a movie, but at this time, what Jia Zhangke wants to do, then how to do it. Jia Damin immediately beckoned everyone to play happily.
It's impossible to get these guests to make a movie, but if you want these people to be the backdrop, then it's okay at such a time, isn't it just drinking? These people come to the song hall, in fact, they are singing and drinking, and they don't need any kind of performance at all.
At this moment, Jia Zhangke took the opportunity to shoot a batch of shots, and then beckoned everyone, stopped the noise, and started shooting, because at the beginning, Jia Zhangke really needed real shots of several song halls, but if it was to officially start shooting, then on such a problem, there needs to be a certain quiet space.
At this time, Jia Zhangke was about to say something just now, Mei Mei came over with some worry and said: "Director, if you start filming now, I'm afraid I won't be able to remember the lines." "Memorizing lines seems to be very simple, but it's just an endorsement, but there is a very different thing between memorizing lines and endorsements, that is, this line not only means that you have to memorize it, but also that you must express your feelings and learn to use it.
Therefore, to be an actor, in fact, in addition to his appearance, he has to go to the past, not to be handsome guys and beautiful women, that is, he must have characteristics. Another important point is that it is very good to memorize the lines, and you must have the ability to express the lines, which is difficult for ordinary people to do.
Maybe most people have no problem endorsing or something, but if it's about performing in front of the camera, then such a thing is not so simple. There will be a lot of people with stage fright, which is very obvious from Mei Mei's body.
She was stage frightened, she didn't know what kind of way to do this, which was quite normal.
And Jia Zhangke also knew this problem, he waved his hand and said: "Don't worry, even if it is a real actor, it is impossible for me to directly give him his lines and let him perform, so you don't have to worry about this, I will give you time to memorize and prepare lines."
But at this time, we are a test shot, do you know what a test shoot is? Mei Mei shook her head, she is not a professional actor, so naturally she said that in such a situation, she would not know what the test shooting was like.
Jia Zhangke explained: "The test shooting is that everything is true, lighting, sound, cameraman, director, group performance, supporting roles, etc. are all really according to the time of shooting, but the only point is that there is no film in the camera."
A reel of film costs three or four thousand, and a cheaper one costs about three thousand, and if you say that I always waste film, it is impossible.
Therefore, there was no film during the test shooting, and you actors could give full play to your skills.
Anyway, you have to familiarize yourself with your roles, and you have to work hard to express your current skills in regular shooting. This is an opportunity for the actors to perform, and it is also an opportunity for the crew to exercise, if there is any problem, then it can be corrected during the real shooting, which also avoids wasting film. ”
This method is actually often used in poor crews, and there is no way, there is the cheapest manpower left in the poor crew, so it is a good choice to test shoot at this time.
Jia Zhangke is using this point now, at this time, he wants to give Mei Mei a certain amount of time to get familiar with the crew, so that a person can get familiar with the crew, the easiest way is to test shoot, and the crew will play with her a few times, and she will almost be able to get acquainted.
This movie actor actually came out step by step like this. If you say that you have talent, you can get familiar with it in a few times, if you don't have any talent for acting, then in such a situation, it is not necessarily that anyone will figure out how the crew operates after a week or two of shooting, this is to see if you are suitable for mixing in the circle.
When Mei Mei heard such a thing, she breathed a long sigh of relief and said, "That's good, I will try my best to get familiar with these as soon as possible, and try my best to perform such a role." ”
Jia Zhangke thought for a while and said: "Actually, you don't have to be restrained, you don't have to perform, you are a singer, the most real singer, this is also a reason why I will look for you, if you don't talk about it, you think that you can be the protagonist by pulling someone casually, you can show your most authentic side, you don't have to worry about the rest, leave it to me and Luo Tian."
Perform the most real you, don't care about anything else, your inner hesitation, your inner struggle, your inner pain and your inner paleness and grievances, how to vent it, how to perform. Do you understand? (To be continued.) )
