Chapter Twenty-Seven: Peerless
The work of the co-ordination is to contact the schedule of each crew member and actor, and divide the film screenings, and arrange the most cost-effective shooting schedule as much as possible through careful calculation. To take the simplest analogy, let's say that on the day of filming, because all the leading actors are present, for the sake of time, you can directly jump to shoot the scenes that everyone has.
Therefore, the scenes Xiao Ran filmed on this day were all group scenes. When Xu Ke announced the next scene to be filmed, Xiao Ran only flipped through the script and remembered it. The next scene is a scene that carries on from the previous one, where two men and three women try to cover everything in front of the troupe owner who breaks in.
In Xiao Ran's memory, this scene is definitely a classic, of course, this film itself is a classic. But this scene can be called a classic among the classics, the dexterity shown in a closed and chaotic situation is nothing, the key is that the skills shown in filming this scene are very good, and they can definitely be listed in the textbook, and have been imitated many times by later directors.
This scene was first narrated by action director Cheng Xiaodong, and then a few martial artists were called to demonstrate it together. When Xu Ke instructed the photographer and art director, he began to shoot this absolutely classic scene.
This scene is not difficult to say, but it is not easy to say, and there are only four cameras used, two of which are hand-held. Xiao Ran and the others didn't have much to do, just hide in bed. The key is Ye Qianwen's performance, which needs to create a chaotic situation.
Fortunately, there is an action director, otherwise this scene would have been very difficult to film. However, because of this, Xu Ke filmed six or seven times, which ended the scene. Then I put on the meal, and then continued shooting until the color temperature was not enough.
Xiao Ran had been paying attention to Xu Ke's actions for a long time, and he found that scene scheduling was a very important matter. The so-called scene scheduling refers to the location of the set and the characters. Don't underestimate this, scene scheduling is often a key factor in the success of a shot or scene.
In fact, the main creative personnel are very important, such as art direction, motion director, director of photography, and modeling design. However, all of this is centered on the director, and the director's idea is the main purpose. The director doesn't always need to do it himself, he just needs to tell these people what he thinks, and they can adjust the effect that the director needs to achieve the final result.
To put it simply, the director is the driver, and he needs to control the actors and crew in the crew, so that these people all operate around his wishes. Thinking of this, Xiao Ran couldn't help but feel something. For him, at least, that experience was invaluable.
After the filming of this day, Xu Ke told Xiao Ran that "Happy Ghosts and Ghosts" will officially start filming in a few days. Huang Baiming just called and asked Xu Ke to let Xiao Ran participate in the preparations before filming.
Xiao Ran is not too worried about this, Liang Jiahui's name is on the list of screenwriters of "Happy Ghosts", and when the time comes, it will only be necessary to let Liang Jiahui preside over the specific affairs. It can not only solve Liang Jiahui's financial difficulties, but also solve the difficulties that he cannot separate.
But what made him feel distressed was that Xu Ke also told him that "The True Color of Heroes" would also start filming in ten days, which may cause "schedule" problems. Just as he was about to leave the set with a frown on his makeup, a car pulled up beside him.
Lin Qingxia poked her head out and looked at Xiao Ran: "Do you want me to give you a ride, screenwriter Xiao!" ”
"I can't ask for it!" Xiao Ran suddenly forgot his distress in front of this peerless and beautiful face, and got into this car that was definitely an antique for him with a smile: "If you don't plan to drag rac!" ”
Lin Qingxia suddenly laughed, Xiao Ran only felt as if the heavens and the earth seemed to be much brighter: "You're right, I really plan to drag racing, I'm scared!" ”
"Afraid, why not afraid!" Xiao Ran pretended to be sad, shook his head and said, "I'm afraid that your drag racing speed is too slow, and you will have to go home tomorrow!" ”
Talking and laughing, he gradually drove away. Xiao Ran didn't know why Lin Qingxia, who was usually not very enthusiastic about people, actually asked him to open up to him, he knew very well that there were very few people in the film industry who were regarded as real friends by her, and when she got married, she only invited Xu Ke and a few other friends in the circle to go. Although this was indeed his doubt, he didn't think about it deeply.
He stared at this peerless face like a white jade statue with a slight sideways face, and there was no blasphemy in his heart. When Lin Qingxia was a girl, she was so innocent that everyone was obsessed, Cheng Long was one, it is said that even Zhou Yanfa had a crush on her, which shows how popular she was back then, and how deeply rooted she was in the hearts of the people.
Today's Lin Qingxia is twenty-seven or eighteen years old, but she is more and more revealing a charming and enchanting peerless style, and the mature taste can make almost all men worship under the skirt. In Xiao Ran's view, if Hepburn is the most beautiful among foreigners, then Lin Qingxia is undoubtedly the most Chinese, and there is definitely an irresistible eternal charm.
"What are you looking at?" Lin Qingxia's face showed a slight anger, glanced at the stunned Xiao Ran and said, "So rude? It's not like Xiao Da's screenwriter's style! ”
Xiao Ran smiled awkwardly, for some reason, he always fell into such a stunned situation in front of Lin Qingxia. Of course, he could hear that Lin Qingxia was just angry, not really angry. Therefore, the kid smiled and said, "With such a beautiful Sister Lin in front of me, I don't think it's rude!" ”
"Beat you oily boy...... Lin Qingxia pretended to raise her hand to fight, Xiao Ran simply sent her head to the door. In the end, she didn't fight, she smiled softly and diverted the topic: "What's wrong with you and Xiaohan?" She seems to be very dissatisfied with you. ”
"Who knows!" Xiao Ran shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands helplessly and said that he really didn't understand the psychology of this little girl, he had admitted defeat and was always deadlocked.
Next, he explained the reason. Lin Qingxia had a smile in her eyes, and her red lips trembled slightly: "Although I have only met once, I can see that Xiaohan is very stubborn." Otherwise, she won't be in a stalemate with you like this, you have to find a way to solve it, at least you have to give her a step down. ”
"It's very troublesome, Sister Lin, I don't think you need to do this!" Xiao Ran patted his head, extremely distressed. It's not that he can't put it down, he just doesn't think he can do it.
"Xiaohan is your sister, what trouble are you afraid of, are you willing to give up such a cute little girl? Well, I'll help you. Lin Qingxia's current expression reminded Xiao Ran of a word commonly used on the Internet in the twentieth century - I despise you!
What else can Xiao Ran say? I had to shrug my shoulders and say yes. When she arrived at her own free nest, Lin Qingxia refused Xiao Ran's request with a smile, leaving a lonely Xiao Ran and leaving directly.
In fact, Xiao Ran doesn't know much about Lin Qingxia, it can't be said that he doesn't want to understand, but too many things have gradually been annihilated with the passage of time. However, he still knew that Lin Qingxia had experienced two bitter loves, and the two Qin and one Lin were definitely like Zhongtian back then.
It's just that he pinched his fingers and calculated, and Lin Qingxia's marriage contract with Qin Xianglin was unilaterally terminated by her the year before last. At that time, Cheng Long, who had always regarded Qin Xianglin as the most respected eldest brother, was the most fiercely scolded, but he had to invite Lin Qingxia to perform in "Police Story" in only one year, and the intention was really unknown to outsiders.
However, Xiao Ran knew that Lin Qingxia should be with Qin Han at present. However, if there is no accident, he will break up with Qin Han in September, and it seems that he will be almost single for the next ten years. Of course, thinking so, he naturally didn't think of anything hell.
In the next period of time, Xiao Ran was much busier. first asked Liang Jiahui to participate in the specific filming of "Happy Ghosts and Ghosts" under a pseudonym, and then went to participate in the worship and start-up ceremony of "The True Color of Heroes". According to Xiao Ran, he was so busy that he didn't even have time to eat.
However, he still took the time to write the script of "Eight Stars Annunciation", but this script is really not easy to write, especially the last reunion scene. If he's not mistaken, it's a Cantonese opera, and this kid has to find out what kind of drama it is.
In fact, he forgot that the last Cantonese opera was not something in the script at all, but was added by the director on a temporary basis, and it was no problem for him not to write it. This would not have had any effect on him, but what made his brain glow with anger was that he remembered it as soon as he finished the script.
It's not that Xiao Ran doesn't know how to act, but acting in life is different from acting in movies, and it is indeed very different. In life, it is enough to disguise yourself, but in the movie, you have to become another person, which is very difficult.
As we all know, acting is very abstract, but in a sense, it is not necessarily so. Every little movement, every facial expression, and even the posture of walking can connect themselves with their acting skills, and this is the so-called basic skills of actors.
Xiao Ran absolutely lacked basic skills, although he specially went to buy a copy of "The Self-cultivation of Actors", written by Stanislavsky, which is the book treasured by Zhou Xingchi in "The King of Comedy". However, this apparently did him little good.
In fact, this is a complaint, the top actors in the heyday of Hong Kong films have either gained a lot of acting experience or graduated from wireless training classes, which is difficult to compare. And a large amount of performance experience is a very valuable training opportunity, and the jerky performances of young actors in Hong Kong films in the future are nothing more than lack of experience.
Xiao Ran, as an ordinary person, where did he get any acting talent. Of course, to say that he is a dead stupid guy is to underestimate him. After all, he grew up surrounded by Hong Kong films, and he definitely has a deep understanding of high-level performances. It's a pity that this is only limited to high-level acting skills like Huang Qiusheng, and in some basic skills, he is still far inferior.
“cut! Very good, let's get ready for the next shooting! Xu Kechong shouted at the surrounding staff, came to Xiao Ran's side, and said in a very serious tone: "Ah Ran, your performance in this scene is very important, go learn more from Ah Dong and let him guide you." ”
Xiao Ran smiled bitterly, filming is really not easy, especially filming action scenes. In this era, most of the shooting actions need to have a certain skill, and where does he get any skills, which naturally becomes a weakness for him.
The scenes they filmed today are mainly teahouse scuffles, and there are not many action scenes, but it is still not easy to do. Xiao Ran asked Cheng Xiaodong for advice, and then filmed this scene. After filming this scene, his mission for today is basically over. Since "The True Color of Heroes" still needs him to participate, he immediately went to another filming location non-stop.
