0305 [Old Boy Finish]
"One, two, three, four. Two, two, three, four. Stop, Director Shao, you did this action wrong, when MJ grabbed the crotch, the waist should be stiffened, but the upper body should not move. Like this, one, two, three, four. ”
In the dance studio, the dance teacher sits meticulously and MJ often plays handsome crotch grabbing moves. This action may seem a bit obscene at first, but it's pretty cool when it's done in its entirety.
It was already twelve o'clock in the evening, and there were still many people practicing in the dance studio, these people were the actors of the "Old Boy" crew, including Shao Shuaijun. In order to make the story of the movie more refined and smooth, Wang Xiaoshuai and Xiao Dabao have a lot of dance moves, especially imitating MJ's classic movements.
Others also have some coordinated dance moves, mainly in two shots. After Wang Xiaoshuai and Xiao Dabao became friends for a while, they practiced with each other, in order to show the kind of intimate friendship and highlight this feeling of brotherhood. This period of rapid transition will be unfolded in a grand dance mode.
Not only will it be interspersed with the dances of Shao Shuaijun and Huang Bo, but the students will join in happily, basically imitating the mode of Bollywood Indian song and dance. Of course, this is not the main plot, and it will be more interesting to arrange a song and dance properly.
In the second paragraph, the gangsters outside the school used break dancing outside the school and MJ dancing inside the school to compete with each other before stopping Xiao Dabao and his classmates to start fighting.
These two sequences use a lot of dance, and they use a combination of nostalgia and pop. For this reason, we had to invite a well-known MJ imitator in China to teach dance.
As the leading actors, Shao Shuaijun and Huang Bo naturally have to practice dancing hard. Compared with Huang Bo, he has a bit of a dance foundation. Shao Shuaijun is just catching ducks on the shelves.
"So?" Shao Shuaijun grabbed his crotch with one hand, held the back of his head with the other, and then loosened his waist and made a straight movement.
The dance teacher shook his head: "You only need to use your waist to straddle force, and your body needs to be naturally relaxed, so that you can do it." Your limbs are too stiff to move with your whole body, you have to combine the rhythm......"
"Forget it, I'll find a stand-in." Shao Shuaijun immediately became impatient.
"Don't mind, MJ's dance moves are so handsome. What a loss of points if you don't do it yourself. Junzi, you have a bit of courage, okay? Look at me, look at me, how handsome. Huang Bo gloated on the side, twisting his hips. A sliding step that sits backwards. A crotch grabbing action. Chic casual.
"The action is very handsome, but the face is out of points, you have such a handsome face as me. There is no need to do these complicated movements. Shao Shuaijun's face twitched twice, he was also new to MJ's dance, Huang Bo, who had a foundation, learned very quickly, and Shao Shuaijun had been learning for a week, and the crotch grabbing action was still so awkward.
"Men are talented and women are good-looking, what men want is talent, look at it, talent!" Huang Bo ignored Shao Shuaijun's personal attacks, continued to play handsome, and then shook his hair at Yang Ying, Liu Shishi and other girls who were watching around.
"Hahahaha." There was a burst of laughter.
"Boss, didn't Sister Xiuxiu say that you were all out of the way, why did a dance stump you? When you were filming today, didn't you still proudly teach others that you can't dance well and become a pig? Why, now I ......" Yang Ying laughed and launched the taunt function.
Master Liu also laughed: "That's it, with Director Shao's dance moves, he will definitely not be able to catch up with the school flower." ”
Shao Shuaijun's old face flushed: "What do you know, those who work hard govern people, and those who work hard govern people." I am the laborer, using my brain to control everything, while you can only work and then be ruled by a laborer like me. In other words, I'm a director, and I can do whatever I want! So, you dance, I'll just watch. Shao Shuaijun, who was ridiculed repeatedly, simply broke the jar and broke it.
"Don't, boss, you dance very well, come on, keep dancing." Yang Ying said coaxingly.
Huang Bo also said: "Junzi, don't be discouraged, in fact, you are also very talented in dancing, although there is a certain distance above me, you are more talented than most of them, young man, I am optimistic about you." ”
"Boss, strongly support you, you are the best you danced." Assistant director Gao Zhisheng squinted with a pair of obscene little eyes and patted his ass. Among the three assistant directors, Wang Yixue and Jiang Zhigang are more rigorous, and they were arranged by Shao Shuaijun to sort out the copies, Gao Zhisheng and Yang Ying, assistant to the director, who are responsible for serving this group of dance students.
"Get out, you will fool me, I am the director, I understand everything, you continue to practice, I will find a stand-in!" Shao Shuaijun sat on the floor with his buttocks, turned the electric fan and blew it at himself. In the summer, even in an air-conditioned room, dancing for a while will still make you sweat.
Everyone looked at each other, Shao Shuaijun played a trick, they really couldn't stop it, who called him the director.
At this time, the door of the dance studio was pushed open, and Li Xiuxiu and her assistant came in with a large bag of drinks and food. Yang Ying suddenly ran over: "Sister Xiuxiu, you are finally here, the boss danced so cool just now, do you want to watch it?" ”
"yes, I'm going to see it." Lee so-so was immediately fooled.
Shao Shuaijun blinked his eyes and looked at the ceiling: "I've already decided to ask for a stand-in, dancing is a bit cheap......
"Hey, hey, why do you ask for a stand-in, how good it is to dance by yourself." Li Xiuxiu said suspiciously.
"That's it, Mr. Li said it."
"Mr. Li is talented."
The crowd immediately chimed in.
In the face of Li Xiuxiu, Shao Shuaijun always had no temper: "Can you ask for a stand-in?" ”
"No, I want you to jump by yourself." Li Xiuxiu was so smart that she instantly sensed the reason, and then said with a smile.
Shao Shuaijun was speechless: "Okay, I'll jump." Dance teacher, some musical accompaniment. ”
The music played, everyone shared the food and drink brought by Li Xiuxiu, and Shao Shuaijun danced a MJ dance with the dance teacher, and then switched to the crotch grabbing movement. Shao Shuaijun still didn't do a good job, he felt that it was not his waist straddling the movement, but that his whole body was exerting his strength and making a straight movement.
Shao Shuaijun, who knew that he had made a mistake, rolled his eyes: "Come on, that's all for tonight." Let's get off work. ”
And all the eyes of the people were on him.
Shao Shuaijun had no choice but to say speechlessly: "Continue tomorrow night, okay?" ”
"That's right." Huang Bo laughed and held a chicken claw, "Let's go, who will go to the bar with me tonight to show my hands, I just learned MJ dance, don't you feel uncomfortable?" ”
"When you go to the bar, I'll call my sister-in-law, but my sister-in-law has told me to report to her in time if there is a situation." Yang Ying also nibbled on chicken feet. Vaguely speaking.
"It's a disappointment." Huang Bo shrunk his neck.
"Okay. When you go back, think back to the dance you learned tonight, don't go home and throw it away, and you'll start shooting the dancing in a few days. Gao Zhisheng. You go and talk to Wang Yixue and Jiang Zhigang. Don't be late tonight. Let's all go back to rest early. Shao Shuaijun put his arm around Li Xiuxiu and said to everyone casually.
He had a hunch that he would dance in person. Definitely a drag oil bottle. Maybe when he will be able to practice, there is no need for others to rush to catch up, and it is embarrassing to see him alone when they are all completed. He can still howl two sentences when singing, and dancing is really not what he is good at.
Sure enough, in the subsequent shooting, all the progress was very fast, except for the dancing one, which was slow.
Huang Bo has skillfully made all the dance moves involving MJ, but Shao Shuaijun is still in the stage of action decomposition, and he can't take care of his feet if he can take care of his hands, so he can only decompose and perform one movement at a time. He had never been cramped in front of the camera before, but gradually when he saw the camera, he lost his confidence.
One day, looking at his lame movements, Shao Shuaijun finally despaired, and in desperation, he got along with an idea and called the director team over.
"Guys, I came up with a great idea today, and I think we were shooting in the wrong direction. In the semi-finals, Wang Xiaoshuai was responsible for dancing, and Xiao Dabao was responsible for singing. So, why did we still portray Xiao Dabao as a skilled MJ dancer when we were in high school? Why don't you let Xiao Dabao jump a little lame to add fun? ”
"Junzi, are you breaking a jar?" Wang Yixue broke Shao Shuaijun's intentions with one word.
Shao Shuaijun hurriedly waved his hand and denied: "No, no, no, it's definitely not because I'm not good at dancing, in fact, I'm not bad at dancing, right?" ”
Yang Ying blinked her eyes, she didn't say what she wanted to say after all, and nodded.
"I knew that my dancing was good for all to see." Shao Shuaijun blew, "I'm mainly afraid of stealing the limelight from Huang Bo, Wang Xiaoshuai and Xiao Dabao, there must be a division of labor, otherwise the portrayal of the characters will conflict." For the sake of the film, I decided to sacrifice my own performance opportunities. So, let's redesign the storyboard like this. ”
Although this is Shao Shuaijun's evasion move, behind the camera, it has received good results.
Especially in one of the scenes, Wang Xiaoshuai and Xiao Dabao were dancing on the railing on the roof of the building, the two of them first made overall movements, and then grabbed the crotch and walked forward, Wang Xiaoshuai did it very standardly, Xiao Dabao suddenly fell crookedly, which made people laugh. The movie "Old Boy" is not the main funny, but this kind of small humor can well adjust the entire plot, making the originally thin shots and thin characters more plump.
So, positioning Xiao Dabao as a scumbag dancer, Shao Shuaijun finally escaped the embarrassing dance practice, gradually regained his previous self-confidence, and showed himself well in front of the camera.
"Ka, this shot is perfect, it's over!"
Time flies, it is the end of August in a blink of an eye, and the progress of "Old Boy" is advancing day by day, and soon it will come to the last scene, which is two sets of shots, one is Xiao Dabao threw the guitar into the lake because he was rejected by the school flower this time. The other group became friends with Wang Xiaoshuai, and everyone went to the lake to fish up the guitar.
At the same time, the global box office of "Twilight: Lunar Eclipse" has reached $630 million, and even if it is still in theaters in a few regions, the total global box office will not exceed $650 million. Compared with the global $790 million of the second "New Moon", it has dropped a lot, but it is still a big profit, and the follow-up sequel has also begun to prepare, and the fourth "Breaking Dawn" will be divided into two parts.
On September 4, 2009, "Slumdog Millionaire" was officially released on a small scale in India and North America.
On this day, by the small lake, Shao Shuaijun, Huang Bo and others held their guitars high.
"Cards!" Wang Yixue shouted out the card.
Then Shao Shuaijun climbed ashore and looked at the camera carefully, picked up the horn, and shouted loudly: "I announce that "Old Boy" is finished!" (To be continued......)
