Chapter 263: The Blue Sea
Afternoon, indoors.
Chu Qing sat in front of the desk, staring at the idol poster on the table, his eyes squinting, revealing a thin light.
The camera rack is on the opposite side, giving a big close-up, because he lowered his head slightly, he couldn't see the whole face clearly, and the dim lights in the room lined his facial outline, as if floating with a dark sense of depression, and there was actually a strange and terrifying atmosphere.
He closed his eyes, then opened them, his gaze quiet.
He has nothing, and he has nothing to give up, and Miss Fukada is his only expectation, and he would rather his world become dark than lose her color.
At this moment, he remembered the best appearance of his idol, and then slowly picked up the utility knife...... The leisurely posture like stretching out chopsticks to pick up vegetables frightened the photographer almost screamed, thinking that he was really going to poke himself in the eyes.
"Click!"
“OK! OK! ”
Takeshi Kitano shouted to stop, as satisfied as ever.
This is the third day of cooperation between the two, and the old man has already eaten Chu Qing thoroughly, and such an actor makes him feel fresh and surprised, completely different from the group of people in China.
It is said that when Japanese actors are filming, in order to enhance their appeal, they usually draw on the skills of stage plays, and their tone, demeanor, and body movements are very exaggerated, and even form a complete set of performance modes that do not need to be figured out by their brains, and are familiar with a large number of actors.
Because when they study acting or self-study, they often refer to traditional theater styles such as Noh and Kabuki, and their understanding of the industry is similar to that of classical Chinese theater, that is, the visual aesthetic requirements are extremely strict, every movement, every expression. Each line should be short and accurate.
In addition, the local theater performances are extremely prosperous, and countless young actors are crawling and rolling in them. So to this day, the Japanese are still accustomed to using that exaggerated way to interpret the content of the script, especially among veteran actors.
Needless to say, Japanese dramas have long been flooded, and the movies are slightly better, shaving off the guinea pig snuff film and most of the messy commercial films. At least there are some works that show the traditional aesthetics of the nation, what Zen, empty and lonely Balabala. The actors' styles also tend to be natural and introverted.
Japanese actors either came from a wild background or started in the theater, lacking a real institutional foundation, and they rarely studied the likes of Stanislavsky and Strathberg. Can you get through the second vein of Ren Du. It's all self-realization.
This has also caused two extremes, one is the impetuous release of Mu Jin, and the other is the return to the basics of holding back internal injuries.
Chu Qing's performance style is shallow at first glance and complicated when you think about it, he is mainly experiential. He also borrowed some techniques from the methodological school, and also brought a small amount of stage drama experience. The mess of things is mixed and swallowed up, and finally it is natural.
To put it simply, he does not deliberately pursue a certain genre, but takes what is useful and ponders what is helpful, and can always form a set of things that he needs.
Of course, this accumulation is not yet mature and is far from the peak.
Correspondingly, Chu Qing has seen a lot of Chinese directors, and he has cooperated with foreign celebrities for the first time, and he has a lot of feelings, shooting methods, systems, habits, consciousness, etc., are all different, such as long shots:
Jia Zhangke uses a long lens to express the living state of the characters through guò documentary techniques, and then show their hearts; Wang Chao uses long lenses, one-third for composition, one-third for scrutiny, and one-third for pretending.
Kitano Takeshi, on the other hand, uses a long lens, but there is always a very quiet feeling, the sky, the path, the sea, the sound of cicadas and the wind. His perspective, like a child secretly looking outside, is very transparent.
In addition to these, Takeshi Kitano prefers to face a dull person for a long time, and no one knows what he is going to do. Chu Qing was forcibly dragged to the construction site last night, wearing a uniform and a hard hat, with his neck crooked and squinting at 45 degrees.
The director didn't have any requirements, just let him poke somewhere, stupid stand.
Twenty minutes!
A live old pervert, a scene is OK, and he feels that his IQ and shame are falling down.
…………
Chu Qing was in a hurry when he came to Japan last time, the time was tight, things were busy, and he didn't care about sightseeing at all, and it was only limited to activities in Ginza District.
With a small number of his scenes, he can finish work in three days in the mainland, and Hong Kong is even more exaggerated, half a day and half a night can be done. But the old man Takeshi Kitano can slowly come out of a bird.
He stayed in Tokyo for four days and waited until early February before moving to Okinawa to shoot the remaining half.
Chu Qing has also been to the beach before, and his impression is that it is all light blue with dirty blue and white, muddy and thick like jelly, and there is no beauty of wool.
He flew to Okinawa with the crew, first arrived at the hotel to settle down, greeted Miss Fukada with each other, and then the next day, he saw the blue sea.
Filmed on Cape Zamba, northwest of Yomitan Village, the most famous sight is a beautiful coral reef cliff that stretches for two kilometers and ends with a white lighthouse.
He walked up from the bottom, and the embankment was an emerald sea, clear and clear, and the shallow aquatic plants swayed gently, clear as a tea stalk standing in a cup. As the terrain rises, the color of the sea becomes more and more intense, until the top of the 30-meter-high sea finally turns into a large deep blue.
It's a great place indeed.
"Bang Bang!"
On the soft sand, Chu Qing stumbled and finished playing a harmonica, and Kyoko Fukada slapped her face very supportively and said with a smile: "sugoi! Youaregreat! ”
“Thankyou!”
He twitched the corner of his mouth, and was praised by the girl in Japanese and English, which made it hurt a little, especially the previous sentence, not a description that can only be heard when a male actor ejaculates?
Although the two are the protagonists of the third story, there are only two pitiful scenes, each filming their own scene, except for meeting on the day of the meeting, they have never dealt with each other again.
As for playing the harmonica, it is a scene in the film and has already been filmed. Kitano Takeshi specially found a teacher to teach Chu Qing, he practiced hard for two nights, and he could barely go down, and the song was the song "Fall in Love with Your Eyes" sung by Kyoko Fukada.
The crew over there was preparing, and Chu Qing was idle. Just sit and play while blowing. didn't think about it, Miss Fukada approached and talked, and her attitude was a lot more enthusiastic.
She began to think. I don't know where to find a newcomer to play, but I went back and asked carefully, ho, Paris Actor, Nantes Actor, Golden Horse Actor...... Good guy, how many times have Japanese actors appeared in the West?
Proper international style!
Yoko's obedient automatic retreat. These two people don't speak English very well, and they communicate awkwardly for a long time, and they have a preliminary understanding.
The girl is wearing makeup at this time. The left eye is wrapped in gauze, and the hair on the left side is tied with a silk scarf, which hangs down just enough to cover half of the face. Even so, it's still beautiful. There is a kind of dilapidated beauty like an old doll.
And what about the goods. Affected by Takeshi Kitano's bad taste, he wears a fat white sweater with a round head, and he can be as frustrated as he wants.
"What year did Chu Qingsang debut?"
"What?" He didn't understand the word debut.
"That is, when did you start ...... Movie...... Performance? Kyoko was also very entangled, trying to find some popular words and gesture to the hand.
"Oh!" This time he understood, and said, "I'm '97." What about you? ”
"I'm '96, to put it this way. I'm your senior. She was joking.
"My girlfriend is also 96 years old, but she is a year older than you."
"Your girlfriend must be beautiful."
"Well, it's beautiful."
……
The two chatted for a while, and the crew was properly debugged and started immediately.
Chu Qing patted his ass and stood up, running away, someone handed him sunglasses and a blind cane, and Kitano Takeshi waved his hand.
“Action!”
A middle-aged woman helped him to walk from the distance on the beach, and the two of them walked quickly and slightly messily.
Chu Qing completely gave his weight to the woman, and the blind cane in his right hand was used very unfamiliarly, poking and poking without any purpose. The soles of the shoes sink into the soft sand left and right, and the body is slightly tilted.
is also blind, Zhikui is not Fengshen Yinde after all, Ya is just a Japanese sling, so he has to perform this clumsiness.
When they came closer, they stopped, and the woman said, "Please wait a moment, she's over there." ”
"Yes, ma'am!" He nodded.
The woman walked a few steps, squatted beside Kyoko, and said, "Tozo-chan, your fans in Tokyo have come to see you." ”
The girl sat on a piece of dead wood, bent her knees, crossed her hands, and said in a low voice: "I told you that I am gone, and I don't want fans to see this face." ”
"But this man is blind."
"Huh?"
Kyoko glanced over her head and then got up.
The photographer sat on the rail car, quickly and steadily made a half-circle, and shot from the side face to the front, giving a big close-up.
"Click!"
Takeshi Kitano shouted and said, "Kyoko, you have to be surprised. ”
"Hey!"
The girl was a little frightened, she was ridiculed by the media before the start of filming: A guy who is not qualified to act in a TV series can actually act in a movie?
She knows what her acting skills are, and she has worked hard, but this thing really has to divide people.
"Click!"
"Be expressionless and have doubts in your eyes."
"Hey!"
"Click!"
"Click!"
"Click!"
……
There have been more than 20 NGs in a row, and it has never passed.
She is either facial paralyzed or exaggerated, and there is no changeability at all, let alone a sense of hierarchy.
Kitano Takeshi rubbed his head, very bad, if he didn't invite Chu Qing, he originally liked Kyoko Fukada's appearance, and he didn't have any hope for acting, but he was afraid of comparison.
When she poked at the house, it was a fluffy little white rabbit!
Chu Qing was also worried, and he didn't have the right to speak, so he had to take a look. This girl's understanding is simply amazing, and the old man is so fine that he doesn't understand.
is completely a passer-by, not even entering the door frame, such as laughing, just grinning, and speaking in a brisk tone; For example, when you are angry, you just frown and have a low voice; For example, sadness, it's easier, crying......
Come on! This is called Qiuqiu's expression?
After pulling for more than an hour, Kitano Takeshi saw that she did not meet the required hope, so he had to lower his level and directly and rudely instructed: "When the camera turns, you just tilt your neck and purse your mouth." ”
"Hey!" She replied in a low voice, naturally very frustrated.
"Start over!"
“Action!”
"But this man is blind." Woman.
"Huh?"
Kyoko got up, the camera swiped, and I saw her following the instructions, tilting her neck to the right, and pursing her lips slightly, looking really cute and surprised.
This is the most annoying bad problem of the teacher in the acting class, eating completely on the face, with formatted movements, in order to achieve a simple dramatic effect, in fact, there is no real feeling.
If you get used to this trick, then the actor will be useless.
Then, the woman helped Chu Qing to approach slowly, and introduced, "Well, she's in front of you." ”
“……”
Chu Qing raised his head suddenly, and the force that he was expecting with all his life seemed to make time stop for half a second. He stared straight ahead, and although he couldn't see it, from behind his black sunglasses, there was a lot of color.
His memory will always stay in the best moment of the idol.
"You're Mr. Naokyu, aren't you?" Kyoko asked.
"Hey!"
He was surprised that the other party could call his name, and couldn't help but feel a little surprised, and then nodded fiercely.
"What's wrong with your eyes?" She asked again.
"I ......"
Chu Qing lowered his head and suddenly became shy.
For the first time, he spoke to her face to face.
For the first time, he had the opportunity to do something for her.
For the first time in this world, it seemed that he was the only one who could help her.
So, Chu Qing was nervous, proud, and pushed the frame without hesitation, and said with a smile: "I think it's better if you can't see with your eyes." ”
“……”
Kyoko blinked her remaining right eye, not sure how to pick it up. She had no choice but to repeat what she had just done, tilting her head, pursing her lips, and looking at him fixedly.
"Click!"
“OK!”
Takeshi Kitano held back a constipated face, and since then he has woken up, and he doesn't believe in idols anymore!
(No state, no state!) (To be continued......)
