Chapter 6: The Coming of the King of Volumes
The reading meeting is an activity that will basically be carried out before the start of filming of film and television dramas, to put it simply, the main creative team gathers to talk to each other about their perception of the script.
If it is an adaptation of an ordinary novel, the original author will also be present, but if it is a gold drama...... Old man Jin Yong couldn't come.
At this moment, in a conference room, according to the size of the position, more than 30 members of the main creative team sat in an orderly manner, and Huang Baiyou and Guo Xing sat in a row, which also confirmed his judgment of social terrorism.
The latter sits down with his feet together, which is not a detail that can determine whether he is socially phobic, but may also be of high quality and willing to compress his own floor space without affecting others. The point that Huang Baiyou was sure of was that Guo Xing began to talk non-stop from sitting down, even if the topic itself was very embarrassing, he still spoke hard, and the lower right corner of the script in his hand was pinched into folds.
"Why don't there be props for this reading?" Huang Baiyou asked deliberately.
"The reading is also divided into large and small, the kind you are talking about is a big reading, and there are hundreds of people participating. Generally speaking, the big reading is the communication between the director and the lighting and photography props, and the small reading is the communication between the screenwriter and the actors, and the role is different. Guo Xingmenqing, "In most cases, large-scale reading will appear in the film industry, and it is the director who communicates the effect he wants to present. ”
"I understand when you say that, I understand so much, I haven't figured out the twists and turns in several films." Huang Baiyou praised.
"Anyway, I've been in the entertainment industry for four or five years." Guo Xing was also very happy in his words.
Huang Baiyou has a characteristic of this product, he never boasts of obvious advantages, for example, there was a high school student who didn't go to school when he played games, and he had several national uniforms in hand, Huang Baiyou would not praise the game for playing well, but "Your logic and command ability are really good, and you will be on the high ground in eleven minutes", and threw out the question "Your shooter didn't listen to the command just now, and almost led to the annihilation of the group, so I scolded him directly, and you actually comforted him", and then the high school student said to him that it was just a game, and the teammates he met were just this game anywayDon't be too grumpy.
Getting back to business, Guo Xing further explained some of the unspoken rules of the crew to Huang Baiyou. Some rules are useful, such as what chair you can't sit on randomly, you have to identify your own; Some rules don't work, such as women can't sit in camera boxes...... However, with the chat, Guo Xing's nervousness was relieved a lot.
Above the seats are screenwriter Lao Xia and director Li Cang, sitting facing the main creative team, the on-site reaction is a bit like a symposium, until Li Cang gets up, the noisy discussion on the scene gradually becomes quieter until it disappears.
"Does anyone want to talk about their understanding of the script, Zinan? Just say it first. Li Cang directly called the name, "What do you think about the character?" ”
Wu Zinan plays the male number one of Ling Hu Chong, he can't wait to get up, and he has already prepared a stomach to understand, "My character has been an orphan since he was a child, and he was raised by his master and mother, so his personality is a little cowardly, but because of the values formed after tomorrow, he has his own understanding of good and evil, and thinks that the right way is not necessarily a good person, and the evil way is not necessarily a bad person, so he has a certain tolerance for Ren Yingying." ”
"And this kind of personality has also allowed him to make friends with a lot of people from the chaotic camp in the rivers and lakes." Wu Zinan added, "Chivalrous. ”
Li Cang nodded with satisfaction when he heard this, and did not speak, but set his eyes on the screenwriter Lao Xia.
"Grasp the values of good and evil with oneself, and bohemianism, and rely on these two points to play a good role." Lao Xia commented and asked, "Do you have any other problems with the characters?" ”
"Basically, no." Wu Zinan walked down, his eyes couldn't help but glance to the back, what he wanted to see was someone's admiring gaze, but the welcome gaze said 'Come on young man, it's already very good'.
Nima Dan's, do you know the four elements of character construction? Do you know what Stan Lislavsky's experientiism is? Have you ever heard of Tadashi Suzuki's performance system? Wu Zinan was so angry, he wanted to see what "holy decree" could pop out of the White Emperor's mouth
Next is the female No. 1 Gao Zi, and the male No. 2 Cheng Guang began to speak.
"Blue Phoenix has an outgoing and generous personality, and she is a person who can do anything for love." Gao Zi spoke, "That's right, that's it." ”
Screenwriter Lao Xia commented: "Enthusiastic and generous, dare to pursue true love, it's good." ”
"I read the script and think that Dongfang Undefeated is a character with lofty ideals and builds a harmonious Jianghu. Well...... is also a chivalrous man who has detached himself from low-level fun. Cheng Guang said that he made a little joke later.
Do you think you're humorous? Director Li Cang thought so in his heart, but Cheng Guang was a person from the capital, so he also tried hard to pull a smile on his face.
"Lao Xia, tell me about it." Li Cangdao.
"Dongfang Undefeated wants to establish bloodless rivers and lakes, which comes from the death of his relatives in the vendetta of the rivers and lakes, so he has the ambition to change the rivers and lakes." Lao Xia reminded, "Pay attention to showing paranoia when performing." ”
"Okay, Mr. Xia." Cheng Guang nodded.
Director Li Cang asked: "So do you still have any questions about the undefeated East?" ”
"Yes...... No, I'll go back and think about it. Cheng Guang nodded first and then shook his head, then sat down, and wrote down the words of the screenwriter just now with a pen.
Huang Baiyou found that he was a little preconceived, and he cast an encouraging look at Wu Zinan, really with encouragement. Because the analysis of this character is too floating, it is all generalized adjectives, and it is not in-depth at all, but listening to the opinions of Gao Zi and Cheng Guang, under the backdrop of peers, it seems that the former's thoughts are deeper.
From the director, screenwriter to the actors, they really regarded Xiaoao Jianghu as a costume love story, and the script was also changed in this direction.
After the second male and female second are finished, it must be the third male and the third female.
"I'm going to say a bit too much, can you say it first in a moment." Huang Baiyou suddenly opened his mouth and made a request.
What to say a little too much? I must have seen other actors talking about stage fright. And to put it so tactfully. But anyway, it is one after the other, and Guo Xing is still willing to help.
"Director Li, let me first tell you what I think of Yue Lingshan." Guo Xing took a deep breath and got up to take the initiative to speak.
"Okay, tell me." Li Cangdao.
Yue Lingshan fell in love with Lin Ping at first sight, although it was love at first sight, but she was also extremely loyal to her feelings. Knowing that his father Yue Buqun set a trap to assassinate Lin Pingzhi, he also firmly stood on her husband's side. Guo Xingyu smiled and said: "Haha, that's roughly it, I didn't understand it wrong, right?" ”
"Very good, you can also add a little Yue Lingshan and Linghu Chong's childhood sweethearts, but it is mixed with brother and sister love." Lao Xia said: "So there are fewer elements of empathy and love. ”
Guo Xing nodded, signaling that she was clear, but she sat down and showed Huang Baiyou a look of 'I can only help you get here', and then she saw a surprised scene, the person next to her opened the script, and then the blank space of the script was full of notes with a black gel pen, and she also saw a thick stack of A4 paper inside, and the paper was also densely recorded.
What kind of volume is this?
