Chapter 69: The Boring "Passion Play"
Don't believe an actor who says that he has never used a stand-in, stand-in is an indispensable trade in the film and television industry, Gong Li and Fa Ge have their own stand-ins.
Some dangerous or difficult actions cannot be done by the actor himself, so he needs a stuntman to go into battle.
There's nothing to be embarrassed to admit.
This is a sword training scene, which is easier than a fighting scene, if you insist on saying it, the two of them are more about putting on beautiful poses, plus a few beautiful movements.
So neither of them wanted to be substituted.
This scene is in the feature film, according to director Yu Min, it will not take more than 2 minutes, but the on-site shooting took more than 4 hours, and it was not finished until 7 o'clock in the evening.
The two of them were hungry until 4 o'clock, and their respective assistants gave them some bread and biscuits, and by 7 o'clock, they were already hungry.
"Let's eat first." Yu Min was worried about the bodies of the two.
Unexpectedly, Zhang and Liu shook their heads together: "After filming today, I don't feel hungry now." ”
The two took the water handed by the assistant and drank it, and slowed down: "Hurry up and arrange it." ”
Yu Min still said: "Xiaolongnu can rest after filming this scene, Xiao Zhang, you have to stay up all night today, the weather is good today, we plan to mention the scene of Yang Guo and Ouyang Feng practicing toad skills to be filmed tonight, it may be one or two o'clock in the night, you better go eat first." ”
In fact, in the same scene, there is also the rivalry between Xiaolongnu and Ouyang Feng, but today only Yang Guo's scene was advanced.
If you want to say that, Zhang Yuanjun has to eat some, otherwise he really can't resist it later.
Zhang Yuanjun ate, Liu Yifei didn't have a reason to be hungry, and asked the assistant to bring food for herself.
The two were eating at the same table, and Zhang Yuanjun smiled: "Your mother really doesn't care about you?" I didn't come to see it for a day today. ”
"She's busy now, how can she care about me." Liu Yifei is also happy that her mother has her own things to do, "Take a walk here, take a look there, I went to Leshan to see the Big Buddha yesterday, and I haven't been there for a few days." ”
"So you can spread out and play these days, right?"
"What, I'm very busy filming later, and the schedule is full every day." Liu Yifei said.
"Don't eat garlic!" Liu Yifei stopped Zhang Yuanjun.
"Why!" You don't care about the heavens and the earth, the sea, I don't eat garlic!
"Wait a minute, we're going to say the right thing, you're not allowed to eat garlic!"
"It's not raw garlic, it's tasteless."
"No, you can't eat it!"
Zhang Yuanjun swore that he didn't eat garlic tonight completely out of taking care of the rival actor, not because the rival actor was Liu Yifei.
Zhang Yuanjun didn't dare to eat too much, he would have high-intensity action scenes later, and if he ate too much, he was afraid of throwing it out when he hung Weiya.
Liu Yifei didn't have this distress, she just had to lie there and say a few words.
is also because the action scenes in the whole afternoon are too consumed, Liu Yifei ate a lot of dinner, and even brought the soup that Zhang Yuanjun couldn't drink.
"Eat so much, what if you wait for the words to burp." Zhang Yuanjun said.
"No, I'm only 7 minutes full now."
"Hurry up and brush your teeth," Zhang Yuanjun urged her, "I just finished eating, and my mouth is full of taste." ”
"It's not a kiss scene, do you still care about this?" Having said that, Liu Yifei still went to the side to brush her teeth.
When she came over, Zhang Yuanjun was already discussing his actions with the actor who played Ouyang Feng and Wu Zhi.
After another ten minutes, the director team also finished eating, and Yu Min immediately started: "Come on, come on, shoot Xiaolongnu first, let Yifei go to rest first." ”
Liu Yifei hurriedly tidied up her makeup and hair, came to Yu Min's side, and asked him how to shoot this scene.
To be honest, Liu Yifei is a little afraid of this scene, or rather worried, this is a major play, and it is almost the only "passion play" in the whole play.
Before filming this scene, it was rumored that Yu Min would deal with this scene with "nudity and passion".
Liu Yifei didn't want to do this, but she was an actor, and she didn't know what to do if the director asked for it.
Yu Min knew her worries and comforted her: "Don't worry, there won't be any nudity, and there won't be excessive passion." We are an aesthetic drama, and I will deal with this drama in an artistic way......"
In order to dispel Liu Yifei's concerns, Yu Min explained the details of this scene to her on the spot, and also called his opponent, Zhen Zhibing's actors.
"He'll touch your face, it's acceptable to touch your face, right? Then cover your eyes with a black cloth, and then untie the knot around your waist, and otherwise you won't have any physical contact, and you won't have nudeness, and he will lower his head, and I'll call Ka, and that's how the scene passes. What do you think? ”
In this way, Liu Yifei is much more down-to-earth.
"No problem, just shoot like that." She didn't even want to be touched by the rival actor, but as an actor, she knew that this was already a version that the crew couldn't have simplified anymore.
She has seen other versions, Li Ruotong was kissed by the rival actor on the neck, exposed a leg, and gave a symbolic shot of a flower being destroyed, which is unacceptable to Liu Yifei.
Zhen Zhibing's actor also apologized to her in advance, and Liu Yifei said it didn't matter.
After saying that the play was done, Liu Yifei came to the tree, lay down on the spot, and said, "It's a little cold." ”
"It's okay, let's put a blanket underneath." This problem is easy to solve.
"Ready, ready." Yu Min issued an order, "Finish filming early." Begin! ”
Xiaolongnu was strolling under the tree alone, Ouyang Feng found Yang Guo and wanted to teach him martial arts, but it was inconvenient for her to be there.
Suddenly, Ouyang Feng flipped over in front of the little dragon girl - in order to save time, this action was completed by a stand-in.
"Card, actor."
Ouyang Feng's actor took the scene and said his lines:
"Female doll, I'm going to teach my son to practice, don't peek." He turned around to leave.
The little dragon girl didn't speak from beginning to end, just looked at him.
Ouyang Feng just took two steps, and then turned back and asked Xiaolongnu: "Hey, did you hear me talking to you?" ”
Xiaolongnu knew that Yang Guo's father was crazy, so she didn't bother to say a word to him, and only glanced at him sideways.
"Huh? Refuse to agree! Hmph, then don't blame me for being rude. As he spoke, he flew up and clicked on the little dragon girl's acupoint, and the little dragon girl fell down in response.
This is the end of the foreshadowing scene.
"Okay, stop." Yu Min said, "Zhen Zhibing prepares." ”
Next is Zhen Zhibing's one-man show, the little dragon girl just needs to lie down.
But whether to say it or not, Zhen Zhibing's actors are immature when they look at their acting skills, nervousness is trembling + swallowing saliva, and shock is opening their eyes wide + their mouths are slightly open.
It's a very rudimentary way to act.
But his performance is not as pompous as some actors in later generations, and it can still be watched, and the audience will not be difficult to understand, so Yu Min did not stop, and he continued to act.
"Okay, is that you?" As soon as Zhen Zhibing's hand touched the face of the little dragon girl, the little dragon girl reacted, and Zhen Zhibing was so frightened that he quickly retracted his hand and did not speak.
"Come on, what tricks are you playing?" Xiaolongnu thought that Yang Guo was playing tricks on her.
Zhen Zhibing still didn't dare to make any sound.
Zhang Yuanjun looked at the monitor next to Yu Min, and the three cameras filmed the two of them from different angles, and Zhang Yuanjun pouted.
"Click!" As soon as Yu Min shouted to stop, Liu Yifei bounced.
"It's too cold, it's too cold." Liu Yifei's assistant hurriedly wrapped her in a blanket, "The cold air on the ground drilled into the bones, it was too cold." Liu Yifei was wrapped in a blanket, but her eyes glanced at Zhang Yuanjun.
"Director, is it okay?"
Yu Min watched the replay a few times: "That's it, it's okay." After speaking, he patted Zhang Yuanjun, "Hurry up and prepare, let's go over it again, let Yifei go back quickly, and see that she is indeed a little unbearable from the cold." ”
"Okay."
Zhang Yuanjun came to the field, Liu Yifei wrapped in a blanket and held the script and checked the words with Zhang Yuanjun twice, thinking that there was no problem, the guide demonstrated, Liu Yifei lay back on the ground, ready to start the machine.
This scene is the first scene between Zhang Yuanjun and Liu Yifei, and it is also the one that impresses each other the most and has the best emotional state.
But auditions are not the same as real acting after all, no matter how good the emotional substitution is, it can't stand the influence of some objective conditions inside and outside the venue.
This scene was filmed five times, and two more were saved, and Yu Min announced that it was completed.
It was already 10 p.m.
"Yifei, hurry back."
Liu Yifei is not hypocritical, her clothes are thin, and it is indeed too cold outside: "Then I'll go first, don't stay up too late." After saying that, he left the set.
