Chapter 400: The First Day of Shooting

"Okay, long blonde hair that is bright and soft, the hairstyle can be slightly different, but the hair color must be consistent, you are experts in this area, and you will do it."

In the spacious and bright dressing room, Lin Yuquan said to the staff of the crew's makeup and styling team with a serious look and gestures, after the actors and staff came to the crew to report yesterday, the movie did not start shooting immediately, but carried out the styling and makeup of the actors today. In addition, the actors who have just come here are familiar with the environment of several important filming locations in the town, and at the same time, the photography, lighting and other departments are also in full swing to arrange the set for tomorrow's shooting.

Compared to Sandra. Bullock, Julianne. Moore, John. Cusack, Allen. Akin, Anthony. Edwards, Dakota. Fanning et al.'s makeup styling, Morgan. Lily, Nathan. Gambo, Abigir. Bryslin, Karan. The makeup of the four McOllie is undoubtedly a little special, because the four played Julie as a child and an adult. Baker and Bryce, so the four are not separate individuals, but a combination of the two interconnected.

For the styling and makeup of these four people, Lin Yuquan has only one request, coordination, that's right, coordination, that is, Morgan. Lily and Abigir. Bryslin's styling is as consistent as possible, and Nathan. Gan Bao and Karan. McOlive's styling is as consistent as possible, and such consistency is expressed in terms of hair color, eyes, and dressing style.

It's not that Lin Yuquan is too strict with this, but this is related to the visual experience that the film brings to the audience, it is true that in real life, a very cute and cute child when he was a child. Maybe when you grow up, you will become unattractive. There will be changes in dress, hairstyle, and hair color.

But. In the film, because it was an instant transition from childhood to adolescence, such a difference will naturally bring a very incongruous feeling and create an obstacle to the audience's viewing of the movie, which is why he didn't choose Madeleine. Carol's important reason.

"Okay, director, we'll make sure that the design plan is realized." Helen in the makeup and styling team. Ryan confidently said that she is the leader of the makeup and styling team of "Heartbeat". and her two makeup assistants worked together to complete the styling of the film's actors, and before that, she also collaborated with Lin Yuquan on "Hurricane Rescue".

"Okay, then please Helen." Lin Yuquan smiled slightly, Helen. Ryan is a particularly experienced fashion makeup artist, especially good at character makeup in urban films.

Helen. Ryan nodded, and immediately got busy with the other two styling and makeup assistants. Gan Bao and Karan. McOllieffey's hair needs to be dyed in a brilliant and soft blonde, so it takes a relatively long time, but fortunately, there are not many actors in "Heartbeat". While doing the hair for two people, it does not affect the styling of other people.

Wait for John. Cusack, Allen. After Akin's styling. Nathan. Gan Bao and Karan. McOllie's look didn't take long to get better.

"Ok, yes, that's the hair color." Lin Yuquan nodded and smiled, held his chin in his hand and looked at it carefully for a while, and then said: "But Kahlan's hairstyle needs to be changed again, I hope he can look more temperamental, and he wants to have Sven's nerdy atmosphere in the sun." ”

"Oh." Helen. Ryan frowned and looked at Kahlan carefully. McOllieffy, running his hand through his hair, I'll cut his hair short on this side and deflect it a little more to the right. ”

"OK, you're an expert, follow your ideas." Lin Yuquan said with a smile.

It didn't take long this time, Karan. McOlive got a new hairstyle.

"That's right, that's it, great!" Lin Yuquan smiled with satisfaction.

"Since it's okay, let's go ahead and do Morgan. Lily and Abigir. Bryslin's styling. ”

"Okay."

Although there are not many actors in "Heartbeat", because Lin Yuquan is strict, he was busy until the afternoon to set the makeup of all the actors, and after the actors finished their makeup, he went to the set of tomorrow to check the layout.

Standing on the lawn in front of a nostalgic apartment, looking into the distance, the mountains in the distance seem to be dressed in the color of the sunset, and the clouds as white as milk on the horizon have become as bright red as a firebelt.

"Oh, it's such a beautiful town, director, how did you choose this place as the filming location?" Julianne. With a charming smile on his face, Moore said as he walked towards Lin Yuquan.

"It wasn't actually my idea to choose this place, it was more accidental, you know, I'm from China, I don't know much about the environment in the US states, and when talking about the filming location, our art director Bill said that when he came to Michigan, he passed through a small town in the north, and he thought that the environment there was particularly suitable for the filming of "Heartbeat". Jenner came here for a field trip and settled here. Lin Yuquan said with a smile.

"Oh, I see, it's good to be accidental, and it's because of chance that it can bring greater surprises." Julianne. Moore smiled elegantly.

"Yes, I like this kind of accident, too." Lin Yuquan laughed.

"Yes, such an accident is very good, to be honest, I walked around the town today, the scenery here is so beautiful, I am reluctant to leave, I want to stay here for a while." Julianne. Moore had a pleasant smile on his face.

"Ha, although I also hope that you can stay in the crew for a while, but that's not good, your next film appointment seems to be a lot, if you stay in my crew for too long, I'm afraid that your agent and other directors and producers will be anxious with me at that time, in order not to become the object of hatred by others, I'd better finish filming your scene as soon as possible and send you away." Lin Yuquan laughed.

"Huh." Hearing this, Julianne. Moult shuddered with laughter.

"Okay, it's not early, let's go back to the hotel, eat early, rest early, I have your role tomorrow, I have been looking forward to your official performance as a top Hollywood actress and independent film queen for a long time." Lin Yuquan raised his hand and looked at his watch.

"When you say that, I suddenly get nervous. Perform in front of the world's most eye-catching, all-round, and talented kung fu forest. It's very stressful. Julianne. Moore patted his chest. He said with a smile.

"Don't praise me like that, if you praise me like this, I'll be under pressure." Lin Yuquan chuckled

There were no overwhelming interviews and camera flashes from media reporters, and there was no grand press conference, when the time came to April 2, after a simple start-up ceremony, "Heartbeat" began the filming of the first scene of the film.

"Kalan, I'll be there when Abigir brings you eggs. There must be a subtle reluctance in your smile, I believe you must have had a similar experience of dealing with others, obviously you don't like something that others give you, but you can't directly refuse the other party, and in the end you can only reluctantly accept it. ”

Yesterday afternoon I met Julianne. In Moore's yard, Lin Yuquan was seriously giving Kalan. McOllie talks about the play, and the scene that was filmed at the beginning of the film was not the first set of shots, and the moving scene was more suitable for shooting in the warm afternoon of Yangguan.

For film shooting, a good movie picture requires not only excellent cinematographers and excellent photographic equipment, but also a complementary environment. The so-called complementarity refers to the scenery, natural environment, weather, light and other factors that coincide with the shooting scene. The scenes suitable for shooting in the afternoon are shot in the morning, and the picture effect is naturally greatly reduced.

It's Julie who is going to shoot this morning. Beck's chickens lay a lot of eggs, and she sent them to Bryce in a desperate way to share the harvest with him, but she didn't know it, because Bryce, who had witnessed the snake swallowing the whole egg at her brother's place, had a visceral disgust and fear of eggs.

"Okay, Director, I know how it feels." Karan. McOllie nodded with deep feelings, he didn't like to drink fresh milk, but his mother would prepare it for him every day, saying that it was good for his health, since his parents divorced, he had been living with his mother, in order not to make his mother sad, he could only force himself to drink it as if nothing happened.

"Very good, you figure out this kind of feeling, don't take it as a performance, just as the usual reaction to this situation in life." Lin Yuquan said with a smile, and then looked at Abigir. Brycelyn: "As for you, Abigier, I'm sure you've had the experience of giving gifts to someone you care about very much, and when you give Karan eggs, you have to treat him as someone you really care about, looking both expectant and nervous, okay?" ”

"Director, I understand, I'll do it." Abigir. Bryslin nodded heavily,

"Okay, I'll give you five minutes to figure out the love and the performance scene, and after five minutes, we'll start shooting." Lin Yuquan smiled gently.

"Okay, director." The two spoke almost in unison.

After a while, as soon as he was ready, Lin Yuquan also sat in front of the monitor screen, and as the scene notes knocked the next screen, Lin Yuquan looked at the set intently, where Abigier. Bryslin holds a carton of eggs and Kahlan in his hand. McOliffey looked at each other, and his steady, powerful voice rang out, "action." ”

As his shout fell, Fenton. Papameko first manipulated the camera to Abigir. Bryslin held the box of eggs in his hand and slowly moved to Abigir. Brycelyn's face with a sweet and bright smile, under the instructions of the staff, Abigir. Bryslin also looked at Karan at this time. McOliffe smiled brightly, "Hey, Bryce, I'm bringing you and your family these eggs. ”

While speaking, Abigir. Bryslin hands the box full of eggs to Bryce, and that's when Karan appears in the shot. The figure of McOlliefe, although Karan. McOllie was smiling, but he didn't seem so happy, a little reluctantly, but Abigill. Bryslin said as if he hadn't noticed, "My chickens are starting to lay eggs." ”

"What?" Karan. McOllie said with a smile on his face, looking a little incredulous.

"Remember Abby, Bonnie, Clyde, Dexter, and U Oh, sorry, director, I suddenly forgot my lines" Abijir. Bryslin said unhurriedly with his hands on his hips, and suddenly paused when he talked about Unix, and then turned his head to Lin Yuquan in annoyance.

"Oh, it's okay, the filming of the first scene. It's definitely going to be a little nervous. Do you remember the lines now? Lin Yuquan smiled. No meaning to be angry, the filming of the first scene, not to mention Abigir. A child like Bryslin, even an experienced veteran actor with superb acting skills, is prone to problems.

"Well, I've remembered." Abigir. Bryslin nodded.

"OK, let's do it all over again, take it easy, Abigir." Lin Yuquan smiled lightly. Then he looked at the other members of the crew and shouted, "All departments are ready, let's shoot again." ”

Soon the shooting continued and this time Abigir. Bryslin didn't forget anything here.

Then, Lin Yuquan's voice sounded on the set: "Cut, great, everyone is ready for the filming of the next scene." ”

"Whew." Abigir. Bryslin exhaled with a relieved breath and a happy smile on his face.

"It's great just now, so keep going!" Lin Yuquan walked over and said with a smile.

"I'm sorry, Director. I couldn't remember the shoot just now, so I had to shoot it again. "Abigir. Bryslin apologized.

"It's fine. Didn't I say that? You guys are great, do you want to drink water? Lin Yuquan waved his hand and said to the two with a smile.

"No, you don't." The two shook their heads.

"Okay, let me tell you the details of the next scene."

The second scene is also in this courtyard, and it talks about Julie. Baker sent Bryce eggs as always, only to find out that Bryce had been secretly throwing away the eggs she had sent, so he left angrily.

Although there were NG situations from time to time, on the whole, the shooting went quite smoothly. After filming the morning scene, after eating a lunch that was not sumptuous but definitely delicious enough, the time also came to the afternoon, at this time, the crew began to get busy again, and the next thing to shoot was the moving scene.

This scene is about a warm afternoon, the Bryce family moves to a small country town, and Julie. The fateful encounter between Baker and Bryce, Julie. Baker's heart pounded suddenly.

Although this scene is not long, there is no doubt that this scene has an undoubted important role in the film, because it is Julie. Baker's affection for Bryce is the story that follows.

Therefore, Lin Yuquan attached great importance to the filming of this scene, and under his influence, all the members of the crew became extremely serious.

"Hey, Morgan, Nathan, how are you going?" Lin Yuquan came to Morgan with a smile. Lily and Nathan. In front of Gan Bao, the first set of shots will be taken in the meeting is the scene of these two little guys.

At this time, the two had already finished their makeup styles. Lily was wearing a red and white striped short-sleeved T-shirt and a pair of off-white shorts, a simple and fresh dress of an ordinary little girl next door, with a delicate and beautiful little face of the little girl, as cute as a porcelain doll. And Nathan. Gan Bao wears a nostalgic shirt and trousers with belts, and his meticulous hairstyle, showing that he is from the city and ordinary small-town boys.

"Director, get ready." Morgan. Lily smiled sweetly, children don't have so much nervousness.

"I'm ready, Director." Nathan. Gan Bao smiled confidently, although his debut has not been long, he has already experienced the filming scenes of three movies: "Babel", "The Mist", and "Batman Prequel 2: The Dark Knight".

"Well, then Morgan will sit on that bluestone slab, look left and right, and then follow the car, Nathan, what about you, as the car passes by Morgan, your eyes widen, your eyebrows raised, and you look at her with a critical scrutiny, understand? You do it for me. ”

After talking to the two, Lin Yuquan went to talk to Julian next. Moore, Anthony. Edwards and the actor who played Bryce's sister chatted, and after checking the crew's preparations, filming began.

β€œaction。” With Lin Yuquan's shout, Fenton. Papameko directs a set of shots that fall on Morgan. Lily, at this time Morgan. Lily was sitting on the bluestone slab spread on the lawn on the side of the street, looking left and right, just like countless warm afternoons, there were a lot of yellow leaves scattered around her, the breeze was blowing, the leaves shook gently, a few leaves flew up, suddenly, it seemed to hear the sound of a car coming, Morgan. Lily looked at the car.

When the car passes by Morgan. When Lily was around, due to the switch of another set of lenses, Nathan appeared in the monitor screen. Ganbao's face, at this time Nathan. Gan Bao's eyebrows were raised. Eyes wide open. There is a taste of scrutiny in the eyes. Just like the disgust and pickiness of countless children who grew up in the city when they first came to the dilapidated and dirty villages and towns.

Lin Yuquan, who was sitting in front of the monitor screen, unconsciously turned up the corners of his mouth slightly, and when the car came to the front of the small courtyard, a smile immediately bloomed on his face, and he said loudly: "Cut, very good, everyone has worked hard, each department will rest for three minutes and prepare for the next group of shots." ”

"Morgan, Nathan. You guys just looked great! Lin Yuquan got up and walked in front of the two, his words full of appreciation, especially Nathan. Gan Bao, the little guy's acting talent is really good, and his eyes and expressions are very well expressed.

After a short break, the shooting continued, and two more sets of shots were taken, at which point the shooting came to the crucial two sets of shots, in which the first of these two sets of shots was Julie. Baker and Bryce looked at each other in the carriage. Follow because of inadvertent actions, in the chase. Julie. Baker and Bryce held hands and fell into each other again.

For these two sets of shots, Julie is described in the original novel of "Heartbeat". Baker's mental activity.

"From the time I saw Bryce. At the first sight of Roskey, my heart was pounding, because of his eyes, those sparkling eyes, and then he grabbed my hand and looked at me, my heart stopped, this is it, this will be my first kiss, right? ”

In Lin Yuquan's conception, these two sets of shots will be the key to the film's great beauty, and the key to the picture lies in the contrast to Morgan. Lily and Nathan. The capture of Gan Bao's pure smile expression.

"Morgan, Nathan, listen to me, I'll be in the carriage later, Morgan, you're going to look at Nathan quietly with a curious gaze, Nathan, you're a little shy as you raise your eyebrows and look at Morgan. And then when you hold hands, Morgan, you have to tilt your head slightly, and look at Nathan without blinking, and your face gently outlines a chuckle arc, and Nathan you look at Morgan with disgust and shyness in your eyes."

Lin Yuquan tirelessly to Morgan. Lily and Nathan. After Gan Bao confessed, the shooting began.

The set of shots of the two looking at each other in the carriage did not seem particularly difficult to shoot, because there were no additional actions, mainly because of the transmission of expressions, and the expressions themselves were not complicated, so at the request of Lin Yuquan, in order to achieve better results, after repeated shots, it passed.

The next set of shots is much more troublesome, in addition to chasing and holding hands, the expressions of the two are relatively more complicated.

β€œaction。”

As the shooting began, Nathan. Gan Bao ran from the bed of the truck to the house, while Morgan. Lily chased after her, and when she came to the lawn of the yard, she followed the instructions of Nathan. Gambo slowed down, and then Morgan. Lily catches up with him and tries to grab him by the shoulder, Nathan. Gambo broke free with a backhand and then grabbed Morgan. Lily's hand.

It's easy to say, but how to put Bryce especially reluctant but accidentally caught Julie. The feeling of Baker's hand was not easy to embody, and after NG twice, this met Lin Yuquan's requirements.

And then it's the main event, a very critical look-up.

"Cut, Morgan, you're going to have to smile more naturally, just lightly, like this, Nathan, you too, with a slightly stiff expression." Lin Yuquan hurriedly came to the two of them and said, it can be seen that although they are children, holding hands does affect the performance of the two, and the expressions of the two are not so natural.

After explaining and appeasing the two people, the shooting continued, of course, easier said than done, and after another NG, when the monitor screen, Nathan. Gan Bao frowned slightly and looked at Morgan. Lily, faintly avoiding each other's eyes, as the camera switched, Morgan. Lily tilted her head, almost unblinking, looking at Nathan. Gan Bao, the delicate face naturally smiled slightly.

"Cut, perfect, Morgan, Nathan, you guys did a great job." Lin Yuquan shouted excitedly, formed a fist with his right hand, and waved it excitedly. Lily and Nathan. Gan Bao clapped vigorously.

And with his movements, the set was also applauded.

"Nathan. Gan Bao is worthy of being a genius in acting, no wonder he has won the Young Artist Award for two consecutive years, and his performance is amazing. ”

"Ha, Morgan. Lily used to shoot more commercials and was not well-known in film and television performances, but now it seems that this little girl will be another well-known child star in the United States. ”

Yes, the two great little guys, Lin Yuquan had a particularly appreciative look in his eyes, and after completing the two sets of key shots, his mood was also extremely happy: "Okay, let's rest for five minutes, and we will shoot it again later." ”

Although the footage has passed, Lin Yuquan doesn't mind shooting again to see if he can shoot better results, for him, the increase in production costs caused by wasting film and time has never been an obstacle to his excellence.

Not long after, in this small town in northern Michigan, the courtyard full of retro style sounded Lin Yuquan's calm and powerful shout again.
