Chapter 9: Trouble (Ask for Recommendation Votes!)
The filming of "Sniper Phone Booth" is proceeding in an orderly manner, and there is no difficulty in filming the whole movie, and the speed or slowness of the shooting depends on Lei Jiayin's state.
It's been 4 days since filming started, and nearly a quarter of the 16-minute scene has been filmed.
I took a quarter of the four days, and the progress was not fast, and it could even be said that it was a little slow.
After all, it was originally expected that the scenes in the phone booth would be filmed in ten days and the exterior scenes would be left for two days.
There are 6 days left to shoot nearly 30 minutes of scenes, and there is not enough time.
In the end, it is a crew that has not been run-in, Lei Jiayin is not to mention the first time to star, it is the first time to even act in a movie, he has only filmed two TV series that can't be on the star before, or the male N, the kind of role that can't be recognized after watching the TV series completely.
Lack of experience, and as soon as I got out of school, I joined the troupe, and my performance was somewhat affected.
"Click, come here. ”
After a scene was taken, Li Qian stopped and beckoned Lei Jiayin to come over.
"You've made the same mistake again, and you have too much unnecessary body language. ”
Lei Jiayin nodded and humbly accepted the criticism, but he still couldn't bear to say what he thought.
"Director Li, I think it should be normal for a person to act excessively when his life is in danger. ”
Li Qian shook his head, "No matter what people do, they follow their inner instinctive reactions, of course a sniper staring at him will panic, but think about what your character is most afraid of in his heart?"
"It was a secret that was exposed, and the sniper used this to threaten him. Lei Jiayin said without thinking.
"That's right, he's afraid of revealing the secret, and the secret is that he constantly lies, lies to anyone, and his lover, his assistant, his clients, his marriage, and even his marriage are all through one lie after another. ”
This is the foundation of his career, family, and love, so even if someone points a gun at him, he will subconsciously cover up his lies, and when he is threatened in a phone booth, he will restrain himself from letting others discover his abnormality. ”
"But you're right, so in the next scene, after the gang leader is killed, you will really feel the threat of death when you see someone die in front of you, and at that time, your psychological state is another level, and it makes sense to have aggressive behavior and body language. ”
Talking about drama is a very tiring thing, and Li Qian understands what kind of mood the teacher was in when he taught him.
I understand these things very clearly, and I can understand the things that I think are very simple at a glance.
But others don't know, and it's really not easy to instill what you understand into other people's heads.
Fortunately, Lei Jiayin is not stupid, otherwise he would not have been admitted to the Modu Drama Center with the first place, at most it would take a little more talk.
Seeing that Li Qian had nothing to say, Lei Jiayin nodded and accepted it humbly, "I understand, Director Li." ”
After four days of filming, Lei Jiayin and Li Qian also knew each other quite well, and in the past four days, the crew, including him, gave Li Qian a lot of suggestions, but only a handful of them were adopted.
really responded to what he said at the previous meeting, as soon as filming starts, no matter what, the whole crew has to listen to him.
However, I really can't talk about him, but I am persuaded by him every time.
Li Qian nodded, picked up the walkie-talkie, "Do it again, prepare." ”
After speaking, he looked up and found that Lei Jiayin was still there, Li Qian asked, "Is there anything else you don't understand?"
"No, no, I just..."
Lei Jiayin stopped talking, looked at the other people next to him, and whispered, "Director Li, can we discuss, you can just call me Lei Zi in the future." ”
"Why do you say this all of a sudden?" said Li Qianqi.
What did you say!
Since the first day of filming was called a big head because of his big face, Li Qian has been calling him that.
The first time we met, I was called brother, and it took a long time to become a big head!
If you want to do that, forget it, now the entire crew except for a few field workers and assistants, everyone calls him a big head.
At this time, Peng Yuchang, who went to help get lunch, came back, and saw that the shooting had stopped, so he said, "Director Li, big brother, it's time to eat." ”
Even Peng Yuchang called the big head, Lei Jiayin turned his head and stared at him for two seconds, Peng Yuchang felt a little wrong, and quickly walked away.
Looking at Lei Jiayin's expression, Li Qian was surprised, and said with a smile, "Everyone has a name, but the nickname is different, think about it, if your nickname spreads, the entire film and television industry will know that there is a person like you, when other producers and directors are looking for actors, do you have more chances than those actors whose names they don't know at all?"
It's the same!
Lei Jiayin was full of slander in his heart.
Li Qian continued, "If you think about it carefully, is this the reason, how can the big directors and producers remember so many young actors and have a special nickname, maybe they can leave an impression in the hearts of others." ”
"And you see, those NBA stars, who don't have a nickname for the more powerful, what answers, little emperors, big sharks, they are very powerful when they hear it, how can ordinary players have nicknames, even those who don't watch basketball know that these people play well. ”
Listening to Li Qian's crooked reasoning, Lei Jiayin was full of black lines, and he almost engraved on his forehead, "Do you think I'm stupid?"
There is no way, the official is reasonable.
Lei Jiayin didn't want to talk about this topic anymore, so he returned to the phone booth and continued shooting.
But if you think about it, it seems that there is still some truth?
......
Continuing the filming just now, after Li Qian's respectful teachings, Lei Jiayin's performance was much better.
The scene is where the protagonist has been targeted by a sniper rifle and the sniper is on the phone with his lover.
A lie is about to be exposed, and someone is pointing a gun at it, the defense line in the heart has been broken, and people are already panicking.
Lei Jiayin did not have the slightest superfluous body movements, but only showed the psychological state of the characters by constantly trembling with a begging tone, helplessly leaning on the glass of the phone booth, grabbing his hair, etc.
And in the afternoon scene after dinner, the sniper shot a gangster leader in front of him, witnessed a life fall in front of him, became emotional, and scolded the sniper on the phone.
When it was time to let go, it was simple for Lei Jiayin, who had been acting in dramas for a year.
In addition, the run-in of the crew is getting better and better, and the filming in the back is much smoother than a few days ago.
One of the best shots is the scene where he was forced by a sniper to tell his wife in public about the process of getting along with his lover, his wife was targeted by the sniper, and to be honest, he would lose his wife, and if he didn't say it, he would lose her.
The frustration of Lei Jiayin itself in that scene, coupled with the helplessness and begging for mercy that is almost crying, can be called perfect.
However, accidents are always difficult to control, although the crew is small, there are still a lot of things, and the process is still two days later than expected, and it was only on April 30 that all the scenes inside the phone booth were filmed.
On May 1, Labor Day, the crew moved to a new area under construction in the suburbs of Donghua.
Now all kinds of new districts are being built all over the country, Donghua is no exception, the new district has just begun to be built, there are not many people, and it is located in the suburbs, the traffic flow is also pitiful, it is not a big deal to occupy a street for two days, after all, Donghua is also the city with the greatest support for the film and television industry.
The buildings in the new area should be a little more modern, which is also in line with the requirements in the film.
Early in the morning, Li Qian came to the scene with the crew and started the preparations.
In the past two days, it has not been a one-man show, the other actors are in place one by one, and there are thirty or forty group performers.
Near noon, one minibus after another came with group performances, waiting for filming to start.
Li Qian was discussing the next shooting with Zhang Zhonghua, and suddenly Qi Yukun hurriedly walked over.
"Director Li, it's a little troublesome, a group leader came with a few Chinese opera students. ”
"What's going on?"
Li Qian frowned, what the hell are these group leaders doing, what are they doing with the young master and young lady of the group, and how can they run their own big crew of breaking the net.
"I asked, it's just May Day, many people come to Hengdian to travel, and the group of young people who flickered a few students dressed up at the train station didn't expect it to be students of Chinese opera. Qi Yukun explained.
Li Qian was speechless, such a coincidental thing could also be encountered by himself.
There are often tourists who want to experience what it's like to act, and there are also star-chasing, even if they don't need a salary.
Group performances that don't need salaries, the group leaders and crews like them, and the money saved goes into their pockets.
Slowly, there are also people who deliberately fool those tourists to act as group performers, don't look at a group performance is only 30 a day, the accumulation of a lot is not small, and the income of the group head and the assistant director in charge of the group performance is not very high.
"Send them away. ”
Qi Yukun smiled bitterly, "I said it, but they still insist on staying." ”
"Forget it, I'll go, you can arrange the position of the group performance. ”
Li Qian shook his head and went to deal with those young masters.
