Chapter 376: Military Training
After knowing that Chen Yu was going to participate in the project "Fearless Assault", Li Ze immediately called his junior brother.
"It's got what you wanted! The transformation you want is coming! ”
"Haha!" Chen Yu had already swept away the gloom in his heart and seemed very happy: "I didn't expect it myself." By the way, I just found out about it, and I haven't had time to say it, how do you know? ”
"I will also join the crew of "Dauntless Assault"."
"You're going to play too? Wouldn't it be that the two of us can finally join forces again? ”
"Probably not." Li Ze said, "It seems that I want to play a role similar to that of a staff officer, which is of a cameo nature." My main energy should still be on the series "Plotting Kyushu". ”
"Okay, that's a pity!"
"Well, but there will definitely be a chance to film together in the future. You also have to work harder, this is a rare opportunity. ”
"Hmm."
……
At present, there are two new projects opened by Wedo Entertainment.
The movie "Fearless Advance" is of course one of them, and there is also a serial project, "Plotting Kyushu".
The movie "Dreadnought Assault" is still in the stage of concept design and script creation, and it will take some time for the crew to be established. Even if Chen Yu was invited to be the male lead, he didn't need to start filming for a while.
Of course, Chen Yu has not played this kind of role before, and there is still a lot of preparation that needs to be done in advance.
For example, learn how to perform this kind of role; For example, early military training.
The latter, in particular, is important.
Chen Yu has always been in fitness, but the muscles he got out of the gym are handsome and beautiful. Moreover, because of his celebrity status, the agency has made great efforts to hire a very powerful fitness coach to cooperate with his workout.
Since it is an idol route, although it is not the kind of sissy cream student, with the aesthetics of the Chinese people, it is not good to train the muscles to be particularly exaggerated. Now Chen Yu's figure seems to be biased towards the kind of thin and fleshy appearance when dressed. In the domestic aesthetic environment, it is quite popular.
However, the body shape, stature, and muscles required by the image of a soldier are completely different from those in the gym.
First of all, his skin is so white, he doesn't look like a predator in the rain and wind at all. And, he's going to need to do some more muscle gain.
These things in appearance are actually good to say. The complexion can be made up, the muscles can be made up, and it will look more conspicuous under the camera.
But the most critical thing is still in temperament.
The image of a tough guy soldier is completely different from all of Chen Yu's past screen images. He himself lacks this temperament, and this temperament is difficult to show purely in the way of performance.
It's not good acting skills that you can feel this way.
Moreover, after the film starts, although it is the subject of future wars, there will still be a large number of military action shots. Of course, you can substitute for a place that is too dangerous, but in any case, Chen Yu, as the protagonist, must also personally participate in the shooting of many action scenes.
And if you want to do these movements, and do them standardly, then the necessary training is certain. Grinding guns in battle is not very reliable.
Not only Chen Yu, but also the actors who will participate in the movie, after they are confirmed, they will all undergo a period of military training.
Similar plans are relatively rare in China, but in Hollywood, they are relatively more serious in this regard. In many military dramas and military movies, many of the main actors will carry out relevant military training to achieve good shooting results. This will even be directly stipulated in the contract, even if it is some big-name movie stars.
People's film industry is developed and mature, not just talking.
The most convenient way for this kind of military training required for film and television shooting is to hire some veterans to conduct a military training.
But this is not a simple practice is over, this mode is convenient, but the effect is difficult to guarantee.
Among the characteristics of a soldier, unity and chance are also very important.
So, under Fan Zhe's consideration, the most reliable thing is to send all these actors to the military camp and train them for a month or two.
For ordinary companies, it is still a bit difficult to do this. On the one hand, it is in the military camp, and it is really not easy to get in touch with it.
Of course, this is relatively easy to handle - even military training in middle and high schools will even be carried out in the barracks.
And the more important trouble is that in the domestic environment, whether actors can receive such training is a more difficult hurdle.
Little actors, newcomers, needless to say, the crew has quite a strong binding force on them. I really don't want to, just change it, and it's over, absolutely not beep.
But those actors who have become famous, it is very difficult to do it.
Wedo Entertainment has always had a rule in filming, that is, actors must absolutely put an end to all external activities during the filming of the crew. Whether it is commercial activities or program recording, you are not allowed to go, you are honest to keep a good state in the crew and finish filming.
Their attitude, in fact, many actors are not willing to do it after hearing such regulations.
Everyone came out to make money, stayed in the crew for months, and all commercial activities stopped? How do you make money?
With the same kung fu, the kung fu of making a movie can take over several scenes, and there are many money-making activities interspersed in between.
But limited to the strength of Wedo Entertainment, and the fact that they do really awesome content, many actors and brokerage companies want to participate, so they have to pinch their noses and accept all the rules of Wedo Entertainment.
And now it's good that the movie "Fearless Assault" not only has to be filmed throughout the whole process, but also has to participate in a semi-closed military training of one to two months, which is enough time to go out and take another film!
Don't think that filming a drama in two months is fast for an actor, those little fresh meats, squeeze up the schedule, and give a week's itinerary for filming a drama. It's a big deal that other people will act first, and then focus on filming him, it's really not good, find a substitute, and turn around to P Isn't it over?
Of course, here in Dimension Entertainment, this kind of thing is impossible.
Don't shoot roll.
At the beginning, in addition to some signed artists under Wedo Brokerage, many of the invitations sent to other artists were very interested in this project, but they were very skeptical about this military training.
However, later I heard that even a popular star like Chen Yu would participate in such military training throughout the process, and many people accepted it.
Big names? Is it too big for the popular Chen Yu?
