Chapter 187: Who doesn't want to be a good show?
Wu Gang graduated from a special training course set up by the Renyi Drama Theater, and did not receive an orthodox Soviet-style performance education, and the training class run by Renyi is similar to TVB, and he was eager to recruit new seedlings for his own drama theater from the beginning...
Drama performances are not the same as film and television performances, movies have close-ups, but dramas do not, so actors must pay attention to their shape!
Therefore, even if it is released, it is necessary to ensure that your body is good.
Film schools accepted the most traditional Soviet system, and after the eighties, it entered a very chaotic period, some supported the Soviet Union, some supported Germany, and some wanted to add Mei Lanfang to the curriculum. It took a long time before it was quiet. Until now, students have listened to a mixed version of the Soviet system.
Xiaobai's acting class textbook only has one line, and the others are all kinds of ancient and modern Chinese and foreign scripts, as well as performance elements according to the teaching stage, still life simulation, animal simulation, wordless practice, observation of life sketches, Chinese script fragments, foreign script fragments, Chinese and foreign one-act plays, and then there is the graduation play.
What was learned was more taught by the mentors.
Very basic stuff!
After becoming a director, Xiaobai pays more attention to the actor's face, after all, joy, anger, sorrow and happiness must be expressed with expressions - he doesn't like Zhang Ziyi's kind of eye acting skills that are ancient and unwavering, and claim to be able to see through the vicissitudes of the world...
Too static...
This leads him to pay more attention to the inner drama when he acts, and his inner drama must be expressed through facial expressions, rather than his eyes...
Therefore, it is natural to ignore the most basic form!
β¦β¦
"Actually, from the director's point of view, Yin Zheng is very good now, in such an impetuous and fast era, there are not many such actors."
Xiaobai first glanced at Wu Gang, and then praised Yin Zheng: "In the past few years, except for "Wulin Gaiden", he has not received any good books, but I watched "Sparrow" that day, although his performance in it was a little hard, it didn't make me feel embarrassed!" This is very important, and some actors just play hard. β
ββ¦ No, I just figured out my own line..."
Yin Zheng was a little embarrassed.
"Yilong is the same, do you know which drama I noticed you in?"
didn't wait for Zhu Yilong to speak, Xiaobai took the initiative to solve his doubts: ""Xinxiao Eleven Lang", you play Lianchengbi, right?" β
ββ¦ Right! β
Zhu Yilong is a little embarrassed, because..."Xin Xiao Eleven Lang" is really bad...
"I like to watch martial arts film and television dramas, as long as it's not too ugly, I can watch it, you don't make Lianchengbi so bad, I'm quite satisfied with this..."
"Like Yin Zheng, sometimes when I receive a bad script, the best way to deal with it is to sort out the logic of my role, otherwise, I really can't act..."
Newcomers, how can they have the right to pick and choose, it's good to have a play!
"Come on, it's going to be good, traffic stars are no longer popular, and only really good actors can be noticed!"
Xiaobai raised his glass, which can be regarded as encouragement.
"Director, do you think we should take the script badly?"
Yin Zheng suddenly asked a question.
This question should be the doubt in the hearts of many actors who want to act well...
Especially an actor who is a little famous, but has not yet become a climate!
At this stage, there will be a lot of scripts looking for them, and naturally there are many scripts that exude the smell of bad dramas from beginning to end...
"Well, how do you say that?"
Xiaobai was silent for a while, and replied according to his own thoughts: "If it's too bad, it's better to refuse, you might as well take it if the role has room to play, just like some seniors said, a bad script doesn't mean that the actor is bad!" β
"In the Name of the People" up to now, people have handed me scripts every day, and recently "Wolf Warrior 2" has become popular, and there are more scripts looking for me!"
Teacher Wu Gang interjected, and several people listened carefully.
"I couldn't read most of the scripts, so I threw them away, and some of them could be read, but unfortunately, the roles were too single and there was no room to play at all."
"I want to act in a good show, how can there be so many good scripts?"
Wu Gang spread his hands and made a helpless move.
ββ¦ I have written the script before, you should know that Mr. Wu Bo's "Ma Xiangyang Goes to the Countryside" was written by me, as a TV drama screenwriter, I said, the current film and television dramas are very bad, the screenwriter accounts for the main responsibility, say something, you may think it is very funny, but the real thing is that your script has too few words, and the boss will think that you are not serious and do not receive the goods. This is really not funny, many scripts in Hengdian are delivered according to the number of words.
Let's take an example, in an American drama, the male protagonist is a little angry and doesn't want to talk to the heroine, so he may just say 'Fine'. But in the Chinese-speaking world, you definitely don't want to get mixed up when you write like this, because the person who receives the manuscript won't read every line of you carefully, he just looks at a rough idea, and then you have one of the scenes with only one or two lines, and they think it's not okay!
So often that sentence becomes: 'Okay, you're right, I don't know what to say, let's talk next time, goodbye.'" β
Is there content?
In the triangle, it is often written that 'on that breezy and sunny morning, the number two wore a Prada blouse, took a Hermès bag, and sprayed Gucci perfume'
It doesn't matter at all, it's all about making up the word count..."
"Haha!"
Wu Gang and Jiang Wu seemed to have heard of this kind of thing for the first time, and they laughed very happily, while Yin Zheng and Zhu Yilong were a little embarrassed, it seems that these two have taken over a lot of this kind of script!
"Also, in order to prolong the plot time, the producer will inject water!"
"Uh, how to inject water, I'll give you an example, for example, the very common campus idol drama plot, that is, the school holds a student conference, when the roll call is called, there will always be a few names of inexplicable people first, and then the camera switches to the face of the protagonist, at this time there will be a large section of psychological narration, generally this kind of plot can be filmed for half an episode, but it has nothing to do with the plot!"
Zhu Yilong spoke carefully: "I know a screenwriter, and he said that many times he writes TV series without the face to watch..."
"Yes, many screenwriters are like this now, there is no way, make a living!"
"It's all the script is the soul of the TV series, the script is not good, what's the use of our actors having ability?"
Wu Gang sighed: "I'm still lucky, I survived, now I can pick more scripts, and occasionally I can come across a few scripts that make my heart move, and my old guys don't act in TV series at all!" β
He's talking about Liang Guanhua and Pu Cunxin...
ββ¦ It's okay, when the trend of capital fades, there will still be good scripts! β
Bai Xiaofei was relieved...
"Did you write 'Eat Often'?"
Zhu Yilong suddenly remembered something and asked.
ββ¦ Yes, you play Xu Junjie, how do you feel about the script? β
Come and praise me with a white face!
"The script is very good, it's just too short, it's only twenty-eight episodes..."
"I'm not ready to broadcast this drama on the stars!"
"Huh? Don't get on the stars? β
Zhong Lifang, who had been chatting with Chen Baolian, was very surprised and interjected to ask.
ββ¦ Half of my script is about sibling love, and the other half is about reality, especially there are a lot of workplace sexual * harassment, the scale is a bit large, and I am targeting a group of 20 to 30 years old, if it is broadcast on the stars, on the one hand, I am worried that the ratings will not be good, on the other hand, I am a little worried that there is no TV station willing to broadcast! β
Xiaobai explained.
"Don't worry about this, we have already negotiated with Xihong City TV Station, next March, prime time!"
