The treatment has improved, the benefits have increased, the crew is happy, no one pretends to be reserved, saying that "money is not the most important thing", people are ashamed to talk about money these days, but who doesn't know that money is good!

Remuneration is a recognition of the work, and there is nothing to be ashamed of.

Gu Bei didn't take credit, and deliberately pointed out that this was all won by Director Yang Jie from the stage for everyone.

It was Yang Jie, and then she followed: "How can I want to get these, if you want to thank Xiaogu, if he hadn't reminded me, I really wouldn't have noticed." ”

Belch......

This old lady is really ......

Gu Bei knew that Yang Jie was doing this for his good, although the on-site coordination was powerful, it was also a job to offend people, during this time, the reason why no one had conflicts with Gu Bei was entirely because of his young age and easy-going temperament.

Even if someone is dissatisfied with Gu Bei because of some things, he is embarrassed to say anything, as the saying goes, don't stretch out your hand and don't hit a smiling person.

Gu Bei was polite, and when he saw that people were silent, he smiled, who was embarrassed to pull down his face and make trouble.

However, in a short period of time, you can rely on interpersonal relationships to coordinate your work, and if you do it for a long time......

You still have to have enough prestige to convince the public.

There's nothing like fighting for a better welfare package for your colleagues.

In the next period of time, Gu Bei also felt that his speech was obviously better than before, which was a real benefit.

The filming work of the crew is coming to an end, although the conditions in all aspects have still not been improved, but with various local methods and stupid methods, when facing some problems, it can be improvised.

However, there are some problems that cannot be solved overnight.

For example, acting.

No matter how good the behind-the-scenes work is, it must be presented by the performance in front of the stage.

If the performance is a mess, then all the other work is zero.

The other characters in the story are easy to handle, for most actors, it is just another role, but for Zhang Jinlai, the core of the whole play, it is a new experience.

Before coming to the crew, Zhang Jinlai had never been in contact with TV dramas, and he was only a student in the Shao Opera Troupe, so there were not many opportunities to appear on stage, and he was still in the learning stage.

Now suddenly let him play the male lead in a TV series, including himself, the entire crew up and down, no one is too sure in their hearts.

If it's just a simple character, it's just a simple character, but this male number one is a monkey.

How should the character of Monkey King be performed?

When the preparatory team held a meeting before, it had already set the tone, Sun Wukong should have human thoughts and feelings, the animal characteristics of monkeys, and the spiritual understanding of gods, but when performing, how should the scale be mastered?

Regardless of the spirit for the time being, monkey spirit and popularity should be possessed, but which aspect should be focused on?

Like the monkey's lively movements of scratching ears and cheeks, jumping up and down, this is also the part that Zhang Jinlai is most familiar with.

As for performance, it should evolve towards life and humanity on this basis.

In the training class before, the teachers of Chinese opera and Renyi also taught it repeatedly, but the teachers had never seen Sun Wukong, how to grasp this degree, they were also confused.

In the final analysis, it is still up to Zhang Jinlai to figure it out and comprehend it himself.

Through the filming during this time, it is obvious that Zhang Jinlai has not yet mastered the core point, and when performing, he is still habitually drifting towards opera performances.

It's not even as smart as being smart on the opera stage.

Because on the opera stage, the actor's makeup is hooked and painted with oil paint, but now Zhang Jinlai needs to perform with a mask every day.

When expressing joy, anger and sorrow, facial expressions and the look of the eyes are very important, the latex mask on the face greatly limits Zhang Jinlai's play, no matter how hard he tries, the latex mask is not affected, you can't see his facial expressions at all, you can only see his eyes.

Moreover, Zhang Jinlai is not very good at using his eyes, and in the close-up view given to him, his eyes are empty, and he does not feel like he is sharp-eyed at all.

This is also because Zhang Jinlai used to perform on the opera stage, far away from the audience, and needed to use body movements to express, but this method of expression could not withstand close-up and close-up shots at all.

When filming on the set, Gu Bei often heard Director Yang Jie shouting from time to time.

"Monkey! Did you see that? ”

"Monkey, what do you see?"

"Look with your eyes, not your shoulders!"

Regarding this point, Yang Jie can only ask for help from the acting teachers in the group, and ask them to focus on helping Zhang Jinlai improve his acting habits and grasp more of the characters' thoughts and feelings, as well as performance methods.

On the whole, there is still progress, but it is still far from reaching the standard that satisfies Yang Jie.

Changing performance habits is not an overnight thing, opera actors are all on stage for one minute, ten years of practice off stage, years of learning, habits have long been formed, let them turn the corner at once, it is obviously not easy.

Yang Jie also knows this, but she is not in a hurry, just take her time.

But there are problems that can't be slowed down.

Let's go back to monkey spirit and popularity.

After the start-up, at the beginning, when Zhang Jinlai was performing, it was obvious that the monkey spirit was greater than the popularity, but as Director Yang Jie continued to emphasize, the filming entered the second half, but it became a monkey with insufficient characteristics, and there were more human aspects.

Zhang Jinlai worked hard to perform the human aspect, and the result showed the effect like a big hero standing up to the sky.

Gu Bei noticed that Zhang Jinlai also had a habitual action, that is, to pestle the golden hoop stick into the ground, and then stand at the waist, majestic.

Okay!

Monkey King has become a hunter who drives the mountains.

Actually, Gu Bei knew that Zhang Jinlai couldn't be blamed for this, after all, it was a trial episode, and the entire crew was still in the exploration stage from top to bottom.

Director Yang Jie often reminds "monkey spirit, pay attention to monkey spirit", but unfortunately the effect is still not obvious.

How do you grasp that point?

Gu Bei had watched "Journey to the West" countless times in his previous life, and he had a standard in his mind, but how to show it, he was not a professional performer, so he really didn't know the essentials.

There are problems, and it is not only Sun Wukong's performance that needs to be hurried, but also many other aspects.

For example, character modeling.

Although the actor has to wear a mask every day and is fed up with the sin, the looks of the two core characters Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie still don't look ideal.

When the character shape was determined, it was basically based on the four portraits painted by Gu Bei, Tang Seng and Monk Sha said that both characters were played with their own faces.

The faces of Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie need to be designed and produced by Mr. Wang Xizhong, and the masks that can be made are compared with the portraits painted by Gu Bei at the beginning......

It's just ugly.

It's not that Mr. Wang Xizhong's craftsmanship is not good, everyone knows that painting is easy, but it is very difficult to create real objects.

To use a simple analogy, if Gu Bei is asked to draw a picture of the Heavenly Palace, even if there is no reference, he can quickly draw the picture with his imagination, and it is guaranteed to be beautiful and full of mythology.

But to lay out the Heavenly Palace, it will be difficult.

Teacher Wang Xizhong made the same mask for Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie, there is only one picture as a reference, but how to design it, so that the facial features can be expressed without delaying the actor's performance?

In order to find a way to do both, the old man's hair fell out a lot.

But Director Yang Jie is still not satisfied.

Gu Bei often saw Director Yang Jie staring at Sun Wukong's face while filming, and his mouth was still babbling: "This is the Monkey King, live a chimpanzee!" ”

Zhu Bajie's mask also looks a little rough, it doesn't look like a domestic pig, but like a wild one, and the belly lacks realism and elasticity.

These are also the problems that Mr. Wang Xizhong is studying and improving.

Yang Jie is not satisfied, and Wang Xizhong is not satisfied, but time waits for no one, the leaders of the station and radio and television have already issued a death order, limiting the broadcast time of the trial episode, no matter how ugly it is, it has to be filmed.

Yang Jie is now only hoping that the test set can successfully pass the audit, so that she can continue this job, as long as she can pass this level, everything will still have a chance.

"Monkey, what's the matter, have you ever seen a monkey with such a straight back?"

Zhang Jinlai was holding the golden hoop stick, beaming proudly, and when he heard Director Yang Jie's shout, he was also stunned, and then he also found a problem.

He is also very worried now, the director emphasizes every day to pay attention to monkey spirit and popularity, and the acting instructor also hangs on his lips all day long.

But how should these two be arranged, is it more monkey or more popular?

He was equally confused.

"Do it all over again, pay attention to the way you perform."

When Yang Jie said these words, she felt sorry for herself, the actor can't find the right way to perform now, and the director should have helped solve it, but she didn't know what the perfect Monkey King should look like.

Everything can only follow the feelings.

I think it's okay, that's okay, I don't think it's okay, then I'll do it all over again.

After speaking, Yang Jie subconsciously glanced at Gu Bei, but soon shook her head, she also thought too much, although Gu Bei has strong ability and many methods, but after all, he is not a professional performer, what can he do.

Gu Bei really has no choice, but who let him watch the most classic "Journey to the West" in his previous life, and who let him know what the most classic and expressive Monkey King should look like.

He can't act, can't he imitate?

Don't forget what he does, he can't act, he can't draw.

What does a monkey look like when it looks at people from a distance?

What does it look like to see people up close?

And how do you sit, how do you walk, and what do you look like when you talk to different people?

Gu Bei knew that even without his participation, these people would be able to shoot that masterpiece, but since they came, if they didn't do anything, it wouldn't be in line with his character!

What should a monkey look like when it gets angry?
