Chapter 348, confusion in acting!
Xu Rui, Teng Hua, and Bao Jingjing talked happily with each other, from the beginning of their understanding of the role to the presentation of the film, and in the end, they even looked forward to what kind of heated discussions this play could cause when it was released in the future.
Through the chat, Xu Rui learned that Bao Jingjing had been hired by Teng Hua as the screenwriter of this play, and he reciprocated the favor.
Speaking of Bao Jingjing, it is not surprising that she is a screenwriter, she is a screenwriter who graduated from a professional class, and she and director Teng Hua are also alumni, not to mention that the novel "33 Days of Broken Love" itself is original by Bao Jingjing, and writing the script from the perspective of the original book will naturally be able to better restore the most real characters and plots in the book, which is not only a good thing for book fans, but also for actors.
After all, at least Xu Rui doesn't need to worry about being complained by the audience after the film is released.
As Xu Rui knows, the heroine of the play "33 Days of Broken Love" is still played by Bai Lily, and the reason why she is looking for her is not because of how famous Bai Lily is at this time and how good her acting skills are, but because part of Director Teng Hua's investment is sponsored by Bai Lily's husband, which is also common in the entertainment industry.
Frankly speaking, it's just a way to spend money to buy roles, and I don't know how many people in the entertainment industry do this, so Xu Rui didn't make too much fuss after knowing it, but accepted this fact very calmly.
The first meeting ended here, there was no audition, no press conference, and no media follow-up interviews, so a contract was signed, and Xu Rui became the actor of "33 Days of Broken Love".
The filming location of this drama was placed in Beiliang, and this is the second time Xu Rui has filmed in the capital.
Of course, the overall style of "Nightclub" and "33 Days of Broken Love" are different, and the focus is also different, but it does not prevent Xu Rui from learning relevant filming experience from another drama.
After officially joining the group, because of the relationship of funds, Xu Rui also launched his own relationship, and found Zhao Liying and Zhang Tianyi to make cameos, the scene is very simple, to put it bluntly, it is the scene at the beginning of the film, there is no difficulty for the two of them, it is completely a one-way to achieve Teng Hua's performance effect.
Compared with Zhao Liying and Zhang Tianyi, Xu Rui's performance requirements and difficulty have undoubtedly increased a lot, and the character of 'Wang Xiaobei' in the script is a sissy, whether it is gestures or the tone of speech, it is completely different from Xu Rui's usual style.
This also invisibly requires Xu Rui to concentrate more on the characters, at least to directly overturn his own style, which is really difficult, and the shooting is much slower than Xu Rui imagined.
"Cards!" Teng Hua behind the monitor frowned, Xu Rui's rivalry with Bai Lily just now was still a little bit uninteresting, so he had to stop.
Filming has been going on for a week now, but what makes him a headache as a director is that the current progress is less than one-fifth of the script, so if you want to finish it, I am afraid that there will be no drama in another three months, not to mention that this progress is an investment of more than 8 million, even if you add this number, it is not enough.
The progress must be accelerated!
"Director, I'm sorry." Xu Rui showed a hint of apology on his face, it has been a week since the shooting, but he still can't accurately grasp the character of 'Wang Xiaobei', how to say it, this character has to have that kind of pseudo-girl feeling from reading to changing his demeanor, although it doesn't seem to be difficult, but it's often easier said than done, just this one shot, because of him, it has been NG four times.
The entire crew stopped moving forward because of his relationship, and in this case, even if he was the first brother of the crew, he couldn't help but have a red face.
Since stepping into the entertainment industry, he has filmed three dramas, but there has never been such a shame as filming "33 Days of Broken Love", and now Xu Rui is a little hesitant, and he doesn't know how to play the role of 'Wang Xiaobei'.
"Well, let's take a break." Teng Hua is also very helpless, because of Bao Jingjing's recommendation, he is very optimistic about Xu Rui's performance, but he didn't expect this kind of thing to happen when he was actually filming, with his years of experience, it can be seen that Xu Rui has indeed worked hard, even if he doesn't have his role on the set, he will never walk around, just sit there alone and study the script and find out the characters.
However, some things don't mean that you are useful if you are serious, actor is a profession that requires aura, and even some old drama bones do not need the director to point out when interpreting the role, and they can easily grasp the psychological activities and demeanor of the characters, which is experience and innate sensitivity to each role.
"Rui, do you know what your problem is?" Teng Hua motioned for Xu Rui to sit next to him, and then he clicked on the playback of the shot just now, and then said: "Look at this part, although you have interpreted the feminine feeling in Wang Xiao's, but if you have seen this type of person, do you think this type of person is the way you played?" ”
When Xu Rui heard Teng Hua say this, his eyes were also focused on the picture in the monitor, and after watching it for about a few seconds, he immediately shook his head.
Teng Hua is right, in fact, the pseudo-mother is really not what he plays, although his performance is similar in breadth, but in fact the details are very different, the most important thing is that Xu Rui's performance stage is deliberate, from the perspective of acting, once the actor's performance is too deliberate, it will leave the audience with a very contrived feeling, very fake, which makes people have the illusion of goosebumps falling all over the ground at a glance.
Don't say that the audience will definitely not be able to watch the picture played back by the monitor just now, even he himself has a sense of disobedience, no wonder director Teng Hua called the card, such a performance is really unbearable to look at.
"It's good that you know not. Actually, it's too hard to imagine this style of performance. ”
Teng Hua saw the incomprehension in Xu Rui's eyes when he said this, so he nodded affirmatively and continued: "Yes, you heard it right, you just imagined the performance style of the character 'Wang Xiaobei' too complicated. It's true that he is a pseudo-mother, but he is not a real woman, not to mention that you are just playing a man who speaks and does things a little femininely, but in fact, it is not difficult to see from the follow-up plot that Wang Xiaobei is actually a very gentlemanly character, at least from the part where Wang Xiaobei is Huang Xiaoxian in the script, there is a very complete embodiment. ”
"That'...... How do I do that? Xu Rui was also a little confused, but he was still willing to listen to Teng Hua's opinion, sometimes the authorities were confused by bystanders, maybe Teng Hua's perspective could see some other deep things.
