Chapter 54: Amplify Your Emotions

August 18th.

Oriental Movie Metropolis No. 20 Studio.

The "The Wandering Earth" movie, including the space station, carrier vehicles, planetary engines, dungeons and frozen wonders, is all built on real scenes, so the crew has used a total of eight studios in the Oriental Film Metropolis this time.

For example, the visual elements of the planetary engine were filmed in Studio 12, and the scenes related to the space station and space capsule were all filmed in Studio 2, and today I am responsible for shooting in Studio 20, mainly the dungeon and the snow scene on the ground.

Each studio has a large footprint and is divided into many different studios.

And Lin Qingyuan's first scene in this movie, which is also the first movie scene in his career as an actor, is a scene about running away from home.

"On the eve of the Chinese New Year, the first batch of personnel stationed on the Navigator space station is about to return, successfully completing 15 to 20 years of stationing work, and the residents of dungeons around the world are eagerly looking forward to the return of the space hero, for this reason..."

The photos of the astronauts who returned to Earth also appeared on old TV screens one by one.

One of the men who resembles the "bearded version of the wolf warrior" is Liu Qi's father, Liu Peijia... Liu Peiqiang.

The sound of the presenter announcing the news came to an abrupt halt, the television was abruptly turned off, and the camera lens began to move, from the old TV with a black screen, to the yellowed wall plastered with various drawings, and finally to the desktop filled with all kinds of unknown equipment and repair equipment.

"G3 Escape Balloon Ball", "The Wandering Earth Project", rocket model, an unsatisfactory family photo with a hole burned in the face...

In addition to explaining the background of the story at the beginning of the movie, it is necessary to initially shape the character image, the director first explained his professional background through the internal layout of Liu Qi's room, and then showed his personal character to the audience through Liu Qi's message to his grandfather.

"Grandpa, I still decided to go, don't read it." After packing his bags, Liu Qi finally left such a paragraph on the paper.

At this time, Liu Qi's hatred for his father Liu Peiqiang was obviously very strong, but because of the consideration that the length should not be too long, he did not make a strong expression of this part when he was in the dungeon in the early stage of the movie.

Pay attention to the equipment on the table, Liu Qi, as an auto mechanic in his early twenties, actually has quite solid knowledge of electromechanical, and the self-made finger bones and escape air bags are also made by himself, and his hands-on ability and electromechanical knowledge should be very good, not exactly an OB vase.

But the young man's character...

Just because my father came back from the space station tomorrow and didn't want to see him, he ran away from home?

It can only be said that the movie needs such a daredevil's character to help the plot move forward, after all, if everything is gradual and conformist, then all the subsequent stories will not happen, and when the disaster comes, the brother and sister are afraid that they will be stoned to death directly in the dungeon.

"Click! Pause, Xiaolin, you can properly amplify your facial expressions in this paragraph, although the feelings in your heart may already be in place, but the most important thing in making a movie is to let the audience feel your emotions, not simply mobilize your emotions and be done. Guo Fan's voice came from the walkie-talkie.

"Okay, Director Guo, I understand." Lin Qingyuan knew that this was because the range of facial expressions on his face was not large enough, which was innate, so Lin Qingyuan could only enhance the expression of external emotions through acquired efforts and make up for this vacancy as much as possible.

But in this way, it will test the acting skills of the actors, because they want to amplify the most real emotions in their hearts, so many actors who can't work hard will have embarrassing performances that are too violent, which is easy to provide new material for the UP master who complains about the star's acting skills at station B...

For example, Lin Qingyuan's "wonderful" performance clip in his debut work "Kyushu Sky City" was made into a collection and hung on station B to play repeatedly, Lin Qingyuan naturally watched this video, and he also collected it himself, but there is also a sense of alerting himself in it.

That's why some people are born to be actors, their expressions are naturally richer than others, and their inner emotions can be better conveyed through facial expressions, which is the talent that every actor wants.

There is no meaning of whitewashing, but in fact, some actors are indeed born with paralyzed faces, and their facial expressions are not as rich as others since they were children, so sometimes they feel that their emotions are very good, but the effect is still unsatisfactory.

It's not that they're not serious, it's that they're not good enough when they're not as talented as others.

I won't name them here, so I hope these actors will work hard and work harder...

The performance of this scene is not very difficult, mainly to find a feeling for the test shooting of Lin Qingyuan, the protagonist, so Lin Qingyuan doesn't have any special emotions, anyway, just shoot it over and over again according to the director's requirements.

However, what makes him happy is that he feels that his acting skills seem to have improved somewhat, not only in terms of emotional expression, but also in the performance mode of the whole person is more suitable for film shooting.

"Okay, let's get over this scene, let's hurry up and clean up the venue, as for the actors..."Guo Fan turned his head to look at Lin Qingyuan, who was pondering his performance just now, and said with relief: "Xiaolin, your next scene is in the classroom, do you want to rest and adjust your state now, or go directly over there to step on the field?" ”

As mentioned before, "The Wandering Earth" used a total of eight studios this time, and the scenes built in each studio were different, so in order to save time and reduce shooting costs, the director chose to shoot in groups, so each shooting team basically started at the same time.

And Guo Fan stayed on the side of the actor Lin Qingyuan to control the set, not only because the actor's role was the heaviest and he needed to strictly control it, but also because he was actually a little relieved that Lin Qingyuan's acting skills were not at ease, after all, everyone knows that Lin Qingyuan was famous for playing ancient puppets before...

But fortunately, after watching this first scene, although Lin Qingyuan's performance is far from amazing, it is undoubtedly above the passing line among young actors.

And the learning ability and learning attitude are very good, during this time, he will be trained and trained separately by opening a small stove, and it should be greatly improved if nothing else, and the follow-up will shoot the performance effect he wants to see.

Lin Qingyuan thought for a while and then said with a smile: "Then let's hurry up, just in time for the live broadcast and watch the wonderful performance of my predecessors." ”

"Hehe, when did you get along with Mai Mai? Why did you call your seniors so quickly? ”

Guo Fan smiled, the actors of the crew, especially the two brothers and sisters of the protagonist, were able to get acquainted with each other so quickly and get along with each other, which was a situation he was very happy to see, and a good chemistry would greatly speed up the filming progress of the movie.

The improvement of the shooting schedule means the reduction of the cost of pre-shooting and the increase of investment in post-production special effects.

He really wants to make this movie that has been in preparation for three years, and at the same time, he is really scared...

Lin Qingyuan was very helpless, Director Guo, you can find me if you are short of money, why are you just reluctant to speak, although not just anyone can enter the market, but with your face, you said on the side of the management that you want to pull people into the market for additional investment, presumably they will still give some face...
