Originally, the media was not so rampant, who asked He Fang to say in the last "Interview with Yang Lan" that 'as long as you don't personally attack him, spread rumors and smear him, gossip and gossip will be regarded as fun for everyone', now it's okay, the reporters know where the bottom line is, so they are crazy to step on the bottom line to earn traffic.

So what can you say? After eating Huanglian and swallowing it in your stomach, do you want to have a tearing war with the media?

Of course, this is not without benefits, that is, there is a topicality, but who is not an actor, why does he want a topic?

Forget it, let them spread rumors.

He Fang followed the crew to the filming site, and then watched the crew shoot the first shot, and after the filming, no one shouted, looking at He Fang to the director.

He Fang waved his hand helplessly, "You can't decide for yourself, don't look at me." ”

At this time, Wang Zhiyong shouted: "Pass! ”

……

On the first day, everyone was not used to making their own decisions, so when they encountered a few disagreements, they didn't know who to listen to, and then they looked in the direction of the brush.

"Didn't you discuss a solution if you disagreed before the co-production?" How many people to ask.

All three of them shook their heads, obviously they didn't know what to do if the three directors disagreed on the set?

"You guys...... Well, I'll give you a move. When you encounter disagreements, especially in the extreme case of three people with three ideas, don't argue, shoot all three people's ideas, and let the editor judge who is good and who is bad, or finally give the producer an opinion. ”

They heard that this method was useful, and it could really solve the problem of disagreement.

"Director He, you still have a way." Tian Yusheng gave a thumbs up.

"Don't praise me, I said that there is a premise. Avoid the three of you shooting three sets of plans at every turn, so this premise is that there are really three ideas among the three people. But there are only two ideas, the minority obeys the majority. Moreover, you made the director's script together, there is no reason for so many differences, if there are differences, it is that you didn't discuss it in the early stage, how can you jointly identify the director's script? ”

"You have to remember that as a qualified director, it's not a very dangerous practice to change your mind when you get on the set, put on new ideas, and overturn the previous script, unless you are a master."

"Let's shoot according to the script first, and then talk about it, at most, change some of the scripts that are not well thought out, rather than overturning them all. So what's the difference between you and those directors who are director-centric and live creation? Over time, if you develop this habit, you will become more and more dependent on on-site creation, more and more away from the director's script, and then completely reduced to the director-centered author's director. ”

He Fang's words made the three of them nod frequently, this is completely different from being an assistant director or assistant director and being a director himself.

Once some people become directors themselves, as soon as they sit in front of the monitor and direct the entire crew, they feel that the whole person is excited, and then many novel ideas suddenly pop up in their minds, and they feel that the plan in the script they made before is not fragrant, and they must be changed.

Therefore, to become a professional director, you must experience this kind of mental maturity. If you go down the wrong path, it will be basically difficult to correct it in the future.

In addition to instructing the three directors from time to time how to shoot, how to make directorial choices, and how to control more details, from time to time, actors came over to ask He Fang what problems he played.

He Fang sent it directly.

"You have to ask three directors about this, and you have to ask them if they are not satisfied with your performance. I'm just here to help them correct their mistakes, and I won't overstep my bounds. ”

The first day ended in this state of running-in, and in the evening, He Fang also participated in a small-scale meeting of the three directors and producers, pointing out the problems of several people.

In the next few days, everyone became more and more accustomed to the way He Fang did not interfere, and they became more and more confident in filming.

And the actors found that there was no way to give orders to the script, in fact, everyone was making very good progress, so they slowly became more and more trusting of the three directors.

Originally, these actors came for He Fang, and they didn't believe in the three young directors at all, but after a few days of observation, He Fang didn't take care of things, and the three directors also showed a professional level, so they slowly trusted the three directors.

The main reason is that He Fang doesn't completely ignore them, as long as he doesn't interfere with the crew's affairs, He Fang and everyone get along with each other with a smile.

Isn't it because people come over to have a good relationship with Director He, if He Fang still ignores others, then they don't feel like they're losing money?

"Director He, let me ask you, how to act in this commercial film? I always can't break through in commercial films, some people think I'm a young woman in literature and art, but I feel that I should be like an actor when I get a role, why is there a distinction between business and literature? ”

No, after everyone got acquainted with each other, Zhang Jingchu came to ask for advice.

Isn't this what people are drawing, why can't you ignore it?

"In fact, there is not much difference, some people are very good at acting in literary films, but acting in commercial films is not for no reason why the audience can't remember."

When He Fang said this, several actors and directors surrounded him, and they didn't seem to let go of any of He Fang's words about the movie.

"What is the reason for that?" Li Chen was also curious.

"Some people say that there are two kinds of film and television actors, but I think they can also be divided into three types, one is a TV drama actor, one is a literary film actor, and the other is a commercial film actor."

"These three kinds of actors are often difficult to cross borders after they are stereotyped, letting TV drama actors act in movies is not appealing, and letting literary film actors play commercial films has no box office appeal, but if you let commercial film actors act in literary films, you just can't win awards."

"Look, isn't that strange? Let me give you a typical example. Liu Yifei, her TV series has a strong appeal, right? And she has so many fans, which forum do you go to, which QQ group, and you find that there are her fans everywhere. It stands to reason that she is so popular that the box office of the movie should not be bad. But what about the result? ”

"Yes, Director He, what is the reason?" Zhang Jingchu asked curiously.

"There's no standard answer to that, but let me say it, it's a question of the way you act. Teacher Jingchu, you are acting in literary films, you know that when acting, actors need to constantly stack emotions, and then slowly express your emotions under a fixed long shot. This keeps the audience staring at your performance for a certain amount of time, and you have emotions watching. When your emotions resonate with the audience, the audience admires you and thinks your acting skills are great. ”

"However, this set of performances will not work in commercial films. Because the pace of commercial films is super fast, there is not much time for actors to accumulate emotions and express themselves slowly. The audience of a commercial film watches the plot, and then adds that the actors are qualified and can have their own style of performance in the commercial performance, then your commercial film will become. ”

How do you say that? is like Stephen Chow, he uses qualified performances in commercial films and his self-created nonsensical style, then he has become. But is it okay for him to put this set in a literary film? Of course not. ”

To put it bluntly, in literary films, the actors' performances are above the plot, while in commercial films, the actors serve the plot. That's the biggest difference, and that's one of the reasons why a lot of actors can't get used to it. ”

"For example, Mr. Jingchu, you always show your acting skills in literary films in commercial films, is it useful? It didn't work. You have to use commercial performance techniques, for example, you play an older leftover girl in "33 Days of Broken Love", you are oppressed by work, life, emotions and social changes, so you have to show the emotions that most leftover women face, rather than showing the leftover women you understand. ”

"The role you understand, that will only create a character that belongs only to you, if you create it well, you will win an award at the film festival. But you have to create a leftover girl that the public wants to see, so the audience will think you are good, so everyone will go into the cinema to support you. ”

Speaking of this, looking around, everyone was thoughtful.

"And what is the difference between a TV actor and the two?" Tong Dawei asked, he is now a little limited by TV series, and he has not been very successful in turning into a movie actor.

"Teacher Dawei, you often act in TV dramas, and if you act too much in TV dramas, the actors' performances will be trapped. Because there are only a few tricks in TV drama performance: one is crying, the crying scene of TV drama actors is the most important, which is the most direct means to make the audience emotionally resonate, so how to cry is one of the skills of TV drama actors. ”

"The second is quarrels, most of the plot conflicts in TV dramas are quarreled by quarrels, you won't quarrel when you act in TV dramas, the quarrel is not good-looking, then you are probably not a good actor."

"The third is to learn to coax people and speak sweet words. This is the best way to earn the infatuation of young men and women, I think this actor is so good at acting, I really want to fall in love with this actor. ”

"The fourth is to learn to play the bad guy, this person who plays the right role like us rarely acts, but it will also be involved."

"Fifth, we must learn to play a person who is selfless and dedicated, such as dedicating to friends, family, and lovers. is to silently help them do a lot of things, and then others don't know, all the grievances and hardships are borne by one person, and the audience will cry to death with such a character. ”

"Sixth, it is to master the characteristics of the role, and to perform the characteristics of the role, for example, if you play a student, you will play pure and lovely, and if you play a palace maid, you will play a thick black palace fight......"

"TV drama actors are basically framed by these acting skills, so they all act like this when they go to act, so how do you say this kind of actor can act in movies? Isn't that a one-on-one collapse? ”

After He Fang finished speaking, he took out a cigarette, and then scattered one for everyone, Tong Dawei immediately nodded to He Fang.

"Director He, as soon as you say that, I completely understand what's going on. So how to solve it? Li Chen nodded.

"Resolved? This depends on the talent. Some actors can empty themselves and let themselves quickly change from one routine to another. But the vast majority of actors can't turn around, this is the reality. ”

"Even if I can have a set of methods to tell you now, there are still very few people who can't jump out of the frame. It's like a person who is used to smoking, if you ask him to quit smoking, 10 out of 100 is good, even if 10 quit, they will have some unnatural actions when smoking in their later lives, so if you want to solve this problem, you can realize it yourself. ”

……

Of course, this is what He Fang usually chats with the actors in his spare time, except for drinking and eating.

Regarding Zhang Jingchu's proposal one day to ask for advice on where to go to the room again, He Fang sternly refused.

Slowly, the crew of "33 Days of Broken Love" is on the right track, He Fang will occasionally not come, he has to keep an eye on three movies.

Especially in "Scorching Sun", He Fang received a phone call from Zhang Yimou, saying that Marco Müller, chairman of the Venice Film Festival, had come to China and wanted to see his new film "Scorching Sun".

So, these days he has been staring at the later stages of the film, and it is difficult to finish it now, but it is no problem to finish it by the end of August.

No, on May 27, Marco Müller came to Changsha, and he personally went to the airport to pick up the plane.

"Hi, Director He, hello." As soon as He Fang received the opportunity, before he could start speaking, he was shocked by Marco Muller's fluent Chinese.

"Ah, Mr. Muller, you speak Chinese so well."

"Haha, it's average, I came to China in 74, and my first wife was Chinese." Mueller laughed.

"Okay, it looks like you're a China expert, let's go, I'll take you to eat Changsha's food. Have you ever been to Changsha? He asked.

"No, it's more ...... to Chengdu"
