Chapter 66 Expect a win-win situation
"Isn't this Chow Yun-fat!"
"It's filming "The True Color of Heroes"! Today's newspaper has a ......"
"Wow! Leslie Cheung is also ......"
………………………………………
Passers-by whispered, but they didn't linger much. After all, things like movie shooting, they have long been commonplace. There are a few Leslie Cheung fans who stayed not far away and looked at this Rong Shao with bright eyes.
However, everyone was very cooperative, and there were staff members who explained it. So no one would come up to disturb them, and they wouldn't pay special attention to the camera.
"Pony ......"
At this time, Dillon was also wearing a black trench coat, sitting on a Rolls-Royce and shouting at Chow Yun-fat. Both of them took off their sunglasses at the same time very tacitly, and Liu Weiqiang's shot captured Dillon in the car.
In the performance just now, although Lu Yan was expressionless, he didn't shout "cut!" ”
"Get in the car!"
Maybe it was Lu Yan's words that really woke up Chow Yun-fat, which completely changed his expression and temperament. After a little laughter, he got into the car.
Lu Yan here deliberately told him a few times, 'Brother Xiaoma's action of rubbing Brother Hao's mouth of oil reveals the intimacy between the two. This effect must be shown. In fact, Chow Yun-fat's acting is not bad, and the joking but somewhat naughty action is perfect.
One scene, one action, just "pointed" out so much background content of the characters, "Little Brother Ma's appearance" can definitely be regarded as a textbook for the "appearance" of the characters.
"This shot alone is enough for the audience to watch it!" Lu Yan sighed in admiration in his heart and shouted, "Cut!" Very good, ready for the next set of shots right away! ”
After speaking, he immediately summoned the field notes around him to explain. The coordinator once again stepped forward to explain to the actors some of the key points of the next set of scenes, although it had been said before filming, but it still needs to be clarified.
"Although Dillon is old and Chow Yun-fat is known as 'box office poison', their acting skills are really not bad!" Lu Yan looked at the two people who were listening to the details in the distance, nodded and thought secretly.
In the evaluation of an actor's acting skills, there are actually many details. The sense of character image, the grasp of the rhythm of language, the tension of local details, and the analysis of inner drama. To put it simply, it is whether the character created by the actor can "deceive" the audience's eyes, so that the audience cannot perceive the process of "acting".
It is not difficult to deceive the audience, but the big one is to deceive industry insiders and even the judges of some awards!
Lu Yan's method of measuring an actor's acting skills is quite simple. It is the actor's performance, whether it faithfully restores the life of the character.
Most of the films that usually fill the theater are commercial films, and the mainstream performance style of commercial films is popular, exaggerated, and easy to understand, which conflicts very much with the performance evaluation standards of art films, so you can see that for a long time, the best actor and actress of commercial films often go home empty-handed at film festivals, while those low-cost film performance artists with a deep analysis of people's surnames return with full loads.
For this, Lu Yan can best explain it - Tsui Hark. But he doesn't want to make a movie that is just popular or not, business and depth must be done at the same time! Otherwise, you will really have a reputation and throw money.
There is one thing that Lu Yan cannot deny, that is, he admits that commercial films play a leading and mainstream role in a country's film industry. When commercial films declined, so did the country's film industry. So in extraordinary times, if there is a very wonderful commercial movie that comes out. The festival will also give it a high honor, and the purpose is, of course, to bring about the positive surname of the filmmakers.
The current atmosphere in the Hong Kong film market is very good, and what Lu Yan hopes to achieve is a win-win situation.
"Although Yan Tsai is not very old, it seems that I did not choose the wrong one! The few words just now made me break away all at once, and I felt a lot more after entering the role of Pony. Was it true that I had been too traceable, as he had been before? ”
Chow Yun-fat obviously felt that he was starting to feel free during filming, and he more or less really began to pay attention to Lu Yan, a new director.
The staff are busy cleaning up, in fact, the filming of this scene is just a scene here. Except for the moving tracks and stalls that have been laid, there is no scenery.
But for them, there will be busyness in the future.
Dongcheng Imaging signed a long-term contract with Liu Weiqiang and a few others, and the actor is Li Zixiong. As for Chow Yun-fat, with the current Dongcheng Image, they only signed a contract for this one.
But compared to other drama and staff, these people are guaranteed. And they, the experienced ones, were signed a film contract. For those who do a little chores, they are all paid on a monthly basis. So, they are all very serious and hardworking.
In order to save time, the second set of shots was also shot in the building in front of us. For this reason, Lu Yan paid a small amount of money to rent one of the offices for filming.
"I first shot out these simple and easy-to-play shots, hoping to get Fa Ge and them all into the play. In this case, the subsequent shooting should not be too difficult. Lu Yan has his own plans in his heart, and he knows that he must find a way to substitute the actors into the movie for the advanced role.
This not only tests the director's skills, but also tests the actor's acting skills and the way he enters the play.
The next set of shots is for Dillon to take Chow Yun-fat to trade counterfeit money with foreigners, and this set of shots has the finishing touch for the two in the film.
The scene that followed Lu Yan is called Yi Shouyi, and he has just stepped into the circle. When he saw Dongcheng Image recruiting people, he came with the attitude of giving it a try. Unexpectedly, it turned out to be Lu Yan's scene note, which made him, a young boy who had been doing chores on the set, suddenly feel like he had ascended.
However, after joining the company, he realized how tired it was to follow Lu Yan, and sometimes Lu Yan would even pull him up in the middle of the night. If nothing else, it's because the scene notes are important to the director.
"Brother Xiaohei, I heard that the Academy Awards are going to be held soon, do you want to participate?" Yi Shouyi and Ke Shouliang are a little familiar, and their relationship is the closest.
"Of course I'm participating!"
Ke Shouliang's smiling appearance somewhat made Yi Shouyi envious.
"It would be nice when I could participate, and it would be better to win the prize!"
"Poof! What you think is beautiful, do the Academy Awards have an award for the scene reporter? ”
Hearing Ke Shouliang's teasing, Lu Yan suddenly laughed and said, "Little Black Brother, I don't want you to hit people like this!" There are no awards for the field notes, but you can take your time! I used to be a scene reporter in Xinyi City......"
"That's it! It is! Yi Shouyi rarely saw Lu Yan joking, and agreed again and again: "Maybe the director will win the award next time with "The True Color of Heroes", haha!" ”
"Yes!" Lu Yan didn't care about this joke, but responded confidently.
