Chapter 285: Why is the director embarrassed by the actors
"So I'm going to pick up Everea, cook her and put her to sleep, and come over for the night shift before seven?" Jessica waved her arms excitedly, her voice getting louder and louder, like a person who couldn't face this bad life, her head jerked a little with each word, and the rhythm of her body followed the lines.
"Yes." Faced with his wife's questioning, Jim Carrey had no choice but to say helplessly.
"I got another tax bill today! What do you want to do? Jessica's doubts grew louder and louder, and her eyes were full of anger, as if she hated her husband's incompetence.
"Linda, I have to go." Jim Carrey spread her hands, as if trying to explain something.
Jessica, however, ignored him, just turned around and walked towards her post.
Jim Carrey watched his wife walk away, so he had no choice but to walk out.
"OK, this time it's very good, there are still some details that need to be revised slightly, Jessica, you take it slow and adjust it first, your performance was a little stiff just now, let's do it again." After the filming was completed, Zhou Shaoming showed a satisfied smile.
Hearing that she would have to shoot again, Jessica didn't complain, nodded her head and agreed.
And Jim Carrey on the side had a bitter face, and teased Zhou Shaoming: "Zhou, it's already good, you still have to toss us little actors, why should the director be embarrassed by the actors." ”
Zhou Shaoming shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "I don't embarrass you, how can you become an actor?" ”
"Well, you're choking me with a word again." Jim Carrey's humor immediately made everyone around him laugh.
After laughing, Zhou Shaoming walked up to Jessica's side: "How about it, Jessica, working together again, is there anything you are not used to?" ”
Jessica held the coffee cup and raised her head and smiled sweetly at Zhou Shaoming. Then he said, "No." Except that the director, as always, is a little fierce. Aside from some nonsense, some nagging, everything else is fine. ”
Hearing this, Zhou Shaoming almost squirted out the sip of water he had just drunk.
"Is that still called?" Zhou Shaoming said helplessly.
"Not really! Mr. Jim Carrey. You say yes. Jessica pulled Jim Carrey at an inopportune moment.
Jim Carrey laughed, and then said, "Jessica beauty, it's a waste of talent for you not to act in comedy!" ”
"Well, if the atmosphere is good, it's good." Zhou Shaoming thought silently in his mind.
"Actually, I'm kidding you. The director is very good, and it is also a good thing to be strict, which can improve my acting skills, and most importantly, Smith Zhou, you are really handsome! Jessica's first half of the sentence was very loud, but in the end, she lowered her voice and said ambiguously in Zhou Shaoming's ear.
Zhou Shaoming almost squirted another mouthful of water, but fortunately he held it back. While coughing, Zhou Shaoming said to Jessica in Jim Carrey's tone, "Okay." Miss Jessica, you've choked me with a word again! ”
There was laughter around, hearing these laughter, Zhou Shaoming smiled unconsciously, being able to interact is the best state!
I have gradually removed the nickname of tyrant on the set, although I will still be a little angry, but most of the time I have held back my anger.
After laughing, the shooting continued, and after reshooting some shots from the previous scene a few times, Zhou Shaoming felt satisfied.
Seeing that there was still a little time left, Zhou Shaoming decided to shoot the next scene.
In fact, when shooting a movie, the shooting process does not take up too much time, most of the time is spent on setting up props, organizing personnel, and every time you switch scenes, you will need a lot of time to set up props, change costumes, change costumes, and prepare actors.
Fortunately, many of the scenes in "When Happiness Knocks on the Door" were filmed on the street, and there was nothing to do special effects, so you only need to shoot on the spot and add some props.
The next scene is like this, the props team first found a car to park on the street, and then invited a costume actor to wear a police uniform next to the car, and just like that, the props were set up.
As for Jim Carrey's appearance, it is still the scene of carrying the machine, and it has not changed much from the beginning to the present.
In addition, this scene does not require much acting skills, and with Jim Carrey's level, it is completely easy to deal with the past, so Zhou Shaoming has enough time to shoot this scene.
"See that car with its tires locked? That's my car. Parking is not allowed at the entrance of the hospital, but it is always done in a hurry. Jim Carrey carried the machine in his hand, carrying a small bag, and walked towards the hospital, all the while staring at his car.
This image was shot with ease.
The next scene is similar, the location is in the hospital, this is an apartment rented by Zhou Shaoming temporarily, and the lower floor is full of stretchers and other things that can only be found in hospitals, so it is a hospital.
As for the upstairs, there is a special room that is used as Chris's home, and the props team has already finished setting it up, and this room will come in handy after that.
And now, because the scene of the hospital has been arranged, the crew will soon move indoors, and this scene is not much different from the previous one, just a change of doctor, just find a trick to deal with the past.
The key to this passage lies in Chris's inner monologue.
"Thank you!"
At this moment, Chris was shaking hands with the doctor in front of him, still the same as before, with a smile on his face, and he was not frustrated by the rejection.
"Maybe you'll need this next season!" Chris said optimistically.
The doctor walked in and said, "Quite possibly." ”
Compared to the previous doctor who intuitively rejected Chris, there is no doubt that this doctor is more professional now.
After smiling, still as before, Jim Carrey turned and walked out of the hallway.
At the same time his voice rang out.
"I had to sell two machines a month to pay the rent and childcare."
"Now I have to sell another one to pay for the parking ticket."
By the time he walked outside, Chris's car had been towed away by the police.
In front of the camera, Jim Carrey frowned, his face was full of reluctance, but when he turned his head, his eyes became firm again.
But unlike that, his monologue is, "The problem is, I can't sell a single one." As he spoke, Jim Carrey shook his head helplessly and walked away from the camera.
"OK, this scene was a success." As soon as the filming ended, Zhou Shaoming stood up and applauded and said.
Hearing Zhou Shaoming's words, the people around him breathed a sigh of relief, success means that there is no need to reshoot. This saves a lot of trouble.
At this time, Jim Carrey also took a long breath, and then said with a smile: "It's another day, and the filming time flies so fast." ”
Zhou Shaoming shook his head and said with a bitter face: "You won't feel like this tomorrow." ”
Thinking of tomorrow and the plot that will happen next in the script, Jim Carrey's face also changed a few times.
What will we face tomorrow? Naturally, it was the weird little girl, Evreya.
There is no scene of Everea today, and she did not appear on the set, so whether it is Jim Carrey or Zhou Shaoming, they are very comfortable, but in such a long movie, how can there be fewer scenes for the main characters?
Tomorrow's scene is the life of a family of three, when Jim Carrey, Jessica, and Evereya will perform on the same stage, Zhou Shaoming has no bottom in his heart about whether Evereya will cooperate.
"Zhou, are you sure that Evereya will cooperate with me well?" Jim Carrey said worriedly, as if he was a little worried about tomorrow's situation.
Hearing this, Zhou Shaoming smiled and patted Jim Carrey's shoulder: "Be optimistic, life will not give you so much suffering, you have to believe that happiness will always knock on the door." ”
What Zhou Shaoming said is the true meaning of the movie "When Happiness Knocks on the Door", telling people not to give up when facing difficulties, as long as they are optimistic about life, there will always be happiness to come.
After listening to Zhou Shaoming's words, Jin Carrey's expression improved a little, and he said to Zhou Shaoming with a smile: "Okay, you are right." ”
Zhou Shaoming nodded with satisfaction, and then beckoned the surrounding crew to start packing up their things and preparing to go back to the hotel.
After having dinner in the hotel, the group went back to their rooms, but Zhou Shaoming did not go back, but walked to a room, knocked on the door, and asked, "Everea, Avril, are you inside?" ”
This room is naturally Everia's room, knocked on the door for a long time, but no one responded, just as Zhou Shaoming was struggling with whether to go back first, a voice suddenly came from the side.
"Don't knock, I saw them go out in two days, I just came and knocked on the door, no one, I guess they haven't come back yet, right?"
Following the source of the voice, Zhou Shaoming turned his head, but found that it was Jessica, who was leaning against the wall at this time, looking at Zhou Shaoming with a smile.
"Do you have something to do with them?" Zhou Shaoming asked curiously, it stands to reason that Jessica and these two people don't know each other, how can there be something to find them?
Jessica shook her head: "Actually, I mainly want to meet Ivreya, but she's not here, so I can only give up." ”
"Huh? What are you looking for her? The more he heard Jessica say this, the more curious Zhou Shaoming became.
Hearing this, Jessica did not directly answer Zhou Shaoming's words, but turned her head and said with a smile: "Dear director, don't you think it's rude to speak here?" What, don't you want to treat me to a drink? ”
"Okay, let's go down for a drink, declare in advance, I can't drink right now, don't let me get drunk." Zhou Shou Shaoming said in a joking tone while following Jessica.
Hearing this, Jessica turned her head and glanced at Zhou Shaoming, and then smiled: "Director, do you want me to be drunk, or do you want you to be drunk?" (To be continued.) )
