Chapter 64: The Night Scene is Wonderful

Back at the hotel, Zhou Yi didn't tell the crew about it, not wanting to add unnecessary psychological pressure to them. As long as everyone works together to shoot the scene well, they will basically win, so why care about a little thing.

Besides, victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers, and if you win or lose, how can Zhou Yi take it to heart?

Even if he loses this time, Zhou Yi will not lose confidence, and it is a big deal to win back next time.

Winning once is not a skill, being able to withstand setbacks and pressure is bravery!

It's just a film with a five-million investment, so why bother with gains and losses?

It is up to people to make things happen, and it is better to do your job well than anything else.

The rest is up to God!

During this time, Zhou Yi stayed in his room, no longer thinking about the previous things, and silently preparing for the evening play.

Of course, he has memorized the lines for a long time, and he mainly ponders his acting skills.

After dinner, he exercised his national arts normally, and then took a short break to recuperate.

Then he joined up with the martial arts group and practiced a night fight with Cheng Dakui.

A qiē is in order, and it goes very smoothly.

Both of them have practiced many times beforehand, and it must be fine.

The design of the martial arts group has long been formed, and it is wonderful enough.

When the time came, several leading actors changed into costumes, finished makeup, and took a ride to the filming location together. This is a small practice ground built behind a private house. The props team and the art team were all set up in advance. Torches were also burning at the scene.

Although the set is relatively simple, it is much better than the old works in the previous life.

Small-budget films are like this, and they can't be too demanding.

At this time, the lighting team and camera team on the scene are ready, and the director team is all in place.

The martial arts group has already prepared the equipment for hanging Weiya.

Tonight's night scene is mainly played by Gao Song and Zhou Yi, but Cheng Dakui and Zheng Zilong will also show up as imaginary enemies to participate in the supporting play. Since it is a practice scene and an imaginary enemy scene, there must be a fight scene and a hanging Weiya, these are the parts that Zhou Yi is good at, and there is no difficulty in acting.

Although there are only a few tricks, it should be used as a warm-up.

Zhou Yi finally didn't have to wear a beggar's costume this time, and changed into a formal costume, which looked much more comfortable.

Everyone in the previous drama was very well prepared, and there was no difficulty in performing, so it was quickly passed.

At present, Zhou Yi's literary and opera performances are getting better and better, and his acting experience is accumulating and increasing little by little.

The director team finished filming the rivalry shots with lines and various close-up shots together, and then edited them in the later stage.

Then the crew focused on filming practice scenes and fighting scenes.

The members of the martial arts group helped Zhou Yi and Gao Song equip the wire rope, and first finished shooting a few sets of vacant shots that needed to be lifted. During this period, Zheng Zilong had to play with the two, and after a few moves, these were very simple, and the filming was completed quickly, at least the effect was much better than the old work in his previous life.

Then Zhou Yi had to shoot a relatively simple ground fight scene with the "imaginary enemy" Cheng Dakui, with only a few moves.

Tall pine hanging wire matching, up and down pinch tapping.

The ground fight is often the real highlight of the film.

In particular, the quick demolition and breaking moves can make people's blood boil.

This is where the skills of an action actor are truly reflected.

Actresses are much worse than male actors in this regard, and their strength and reflexes can't keep up.

Zhou Yi and Cheng Dakui's ground fighting scenes are quite exciting, they are all hard bridges and hard horses, hand-to-hand combat, fists to the flesh, although it is only a few moves, but the two of them show their skills, they play very cleanly and neatly, without dragging mud and water, absolutely beautiful, very interesting.

Zhou Yi was wearing an orthodox white martial arts costume, and naturally no longer used a humorous fighting performance, but an orthodox fighting style, with fast and fierce skills, stretched moves, and picturesque movements, which were much more beautiful than the skills of the original actors.

The design of the martial arts group is different from the previous life, and the martial arts scenes in this life are naturally very different from the previous life, but they also have their own unique style.

Of course, some similar action scenes are inevitable.

The basic movements are all those, depending on how they are combined.

Even if it is a similar action, but different actors complete it, the effect is completely different.

Zhou Yi's movements are more standard stretches, stronger strength, more clean and neat, natural and more beautiful, with a very harmonious beauty. This beauty is what makes him unique, and no one else can compare.

In the eyes of many people, filming action scenes is not acting at all, only facial expressions and eyes are called acting.

Some acting stars have a look at the past, and countless people praise them.

And the action superstar played the whole audience, and he was extremely energetic, but he still had no acting skills.

Zhou Yi didn't agree with this idea at all.

According to this logic, those actors who acted in silent movies in the past had to think that the actors who spoke their lines had no acting skills.

If you have acting skills, you can just perform with your face, and what are you doing with your mouth?

In fact, filming scenes certainly require acting skills.

Being able to play beautifully is the ability of an actor.

There are many people who know kung fu, but how many can play beautifully, and how many are famous? Many martial artists may be strong in the ring, but if those actions are filmed realistically, will anyone watch them? Will anyone think it looks good?

Of course, these need to be performed, and it is better to be able to play than to be able to act. Of course, this kind of "performance" is based on your real kung fu, otherwise no matter how you can act, it will be a castle in the air, and it will seem very unreal.

Besides, even if you take the art exam, you also have to take the physical test! The national art is more difficult than dance, and it is more widely used in film and television, it is not only a practical knowledge, but also an art of film and television performance.

How many song and dance films are there? How many action movies, martial arts movies, and kung fu movies are there?

And Zhou Yi has experience in his previous life, so he has an innate advantage, coupled with the terrifying talent in this life, he naturally plays extremely beautifully.

Even if this play doesn't require him to play much, but when you see the leopard, you only need to watch a few tricks to immediately understand his superb talent.

At this point, even the top kung fu superstars in this world are difficult to compare with him.

Watching Zhou Yi's filming, the crew and staff at the scene all had a very comfortable feeling in their hearts, and probably felt that the picture in front of them was too beautiful.

Director Zhao and some members of the director team and the photography team all felt that their eyes were bright and beautiful. They are experienced and can imagine what the specific results will look like. Zhou Yi's martial arts talent is really good.

It seems that the play of this drama is not a problem.

After a busy moment, this night show is over.

Everyone celebrated and congratulated Zhou Yi on his wonderful performance.

Gao Song, Cheng Dakui and others all felt that Zhou Yi's play was too exciting.

This fight scene was directed by action director Huang Huacheng himself, and after Director Zhao finished filming the literary drama, he took over the filming of the martial arts drama. Huang Huacheng is also very satisfied with Zhou Yi's appearance, and he is even more satisfied with the shooting effect.

Director Zhao's attitude is the same, praising Zhou Yi again and again, and he does not hesitate to praise him.

So far, all the night scenes of this play have been completed.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and they could relax at night in the future, and they didn't have to come out to work and film.

It's really hard to shoot night scenes.

In fact, these jobs are considered overtime, and there must be additional overtime pay, otherwise where does everyone get their enthusiasm for work? The delay in filming is the boss's money, not the staff's money. With overtime pay encouragement, there will be enough mental motivation.

Next, the behind-the-scenes staff began to pack their things, and the leading actors all took a ride back to the hotel to rest.

According to the crew's shooting plan, starting tomorrow Friday, the most exciting public drama will be filmed.

The court scene and the fight scene are left for filming at the end, which shows its importance.

Early the next morning, the behind-the-scenes staff of the crew got up early to prepare and were very diligent.

After breakfast, the leading actors rushed to the county office filming location early to warm up.

According to Director Zhao's work arrangement, today's first public scene is not difficult, and the shooting is not complicated, just to warm up everyone and find the state. The first court scene is actually a post-mortem scene filmed in the studio last week.

This is a scene in which the county magistrate orders the head catchers and officials in the public court to solve the case within a time limit.

At the level of performance, it is relatively simple, mainly looking at the county performance played by Tang Wang.

It was enough for Gao Song and Wu Yuanshen to make two expressions.

The main actors in this scene are the three of them, and Zhou Yi has nothing to do at all, and he doesn't even need to play soy sauce.

However, Zhou Yi still followed to watch the performance, tried his best to observe the imitation, and tried to bypass the class.

In addition, this public court drama requires more standing and guarding, as well as the yamen to catch fast.

In addition to Director Rong's cameo appearance, there is also a martial artist who plays Lin Guang, and the other members of the martial arts group who can play are all on the play, and the rest of the roles are played by the group actors who originally played, and they have all been notified in advance.

The group leader and the group actors came to the crew in the morning to report, and made up and changed clothes in advance.

Now the group performers are almost all dealt with.

The leading actors also began to change their costumes and makeup, striving to start filming as soon as possible.

The makeup team and the costume team are busy.

At about half past eight in the morning, the time was almost up, the camera crew and the lighting crew were ready, and the filming of this public scene officially began.

Filming is indeed relatively simple, just look at Tang Wang's line play.

As soon as a few shots pass, add a few close-ups, and this scene will be smooth and clear.

Neither Gao Song nor Wu Yuanshen have lines, they only need to make expressions. The group performers naturally have no lines, half-kneeling on the ground, and then do the action of bowing their heads and raising their heads, without acting skills at all, let alone doing superfluous movements.

If anyone dares to express themselves more, I'm afraid the director will have to stop.

If you don't do it well two or three times, the director will definitely curse.

In the previous life, the performance method of the protagonist in "The King of Comedy" must not have dared to use it, it was completely an act of death.

Making a movie is a very strict thing, not a joke.

Some of the laughing scenes in the film's footage are actually deliberately teasing the audience, and may not be the real filming process.

If it's really that messy, not to mention the actors, it is estimated that the behind-the-scenes staff will scold their mothers.
