Chapter 104 The Liberation of Nature

"That's true." Liu Wanning put down what she was doing, fanned herself gently with a fan, and sighed: "No wonder Sister Hua likes Brother Cheng. He has good acting skills and a good character. He has never had any gossips. I would not be able to do anything with this kind of person." Highly praised!”

Su Yao smiled, leaned on the sofa, and said comfortably: "Fortunately, his manager is Sister Hua, and we are just assistants, otherwise the bastards in the company can let this piece of fat go?"

"Hmph, those eight women are so mad!" Liu Wanning seemed to think of something at this point, and said excitedly: "Do you still remember Linda who used to bully me?"

"I went back to the company yesterday, and the eighth woman was pulling me to flatter me like crazy, what kind of lipstick is so beautiful, how did you draw the eyeliner, the clothes are so trendy..."

"Listen to my goosebumps!"

Su Yao couldn't help but just wanted to laugh. Thinking of the mask on her face, she quickly held back and said, "Now I know what it is..."

"One person attains enlightenment, chicken and dog ascend to heaven!"

"Of course I don't mean that. In short, we can be better if the veteran cadres are good. The more popular the veteran cadres are, the more nourishing our life will be."

"Come on veteran cadre!" Liu Wanning jumped up suddenly, raised her hands, looked up to the sky and laughed loudly: "The rest of this lady's life..."

"It's all up to you!"

Two days later, Ding Cheng went to visit the class for the first time. After all, he promised Sister Hua to see if the three newcomers are getting used to it.

First meet with the director and simply communicate with the filming process, which is actually nothing, just to show concern and condolences as a mentor, and to express the importance to the newcomers.

"At this time, Teacher Tianchi should be in class." The director explained: "The first stage is the physical examination, and the classes will be reassigned according to the grades."

Ding Cheng nodded. If the four subjects of cross talk are talking about learning to sing, then the actor is the sound stage, and the four years of college are just to lay a solid foundation.

When I came to the rehearsal room of Class A, I looked inside through the glass. I saw a middle-aged woman in her early forties teaching students.

"Imagine yourself as a puppet suspended by thin strings, all stand on tiptoes, yes, there seems to be a string on the top of the head, from the head, neck, shoulders, arms..."

"All the way down, relax one by one. So as to achieve a complete relaxation state, and then enter the role and scene according to the instructor's remarks."

"Okay, all of you close your eyes, and no one is allowed to peek unless you open your eyes!"

"Walking blindly hand in hand, yes, don't be afraid, bravely trust the people around you, and feel the surroundings with your heart!"

"Okay, stop, don't open your eyes. Now start listening to music, no matter what it's playing, and act according to your instinct, anything is fine."

"Yes, move for me!"

"Don't stop...it doesn't matter what you dance..."

Ding Cheng looked at the eight students who were dancing, and the best performer was Su Zelin. After all, he is a professional dancer, with elegant gestures and various movements.

Zhao Tianchi, a senior teacher of Chinese opera, was the pinnacle of his debut. He played the eldest daughter of Ge You and Gong Li in the life of Lao Mouzi. Later, he studied in Taiwan to study stage plays and brought many star students.

The fire is because of participating in an acting show, and also as an acting instructor, earning a lot of attention. I heard that now I have set up a studio, and I am doing well.

What is going on now is the liberation of nature, the first lesson of all professional schools.Through performances, they drill each other's crotch, play clowns, orangutans, and play games.Open the imprisoned child, relax the body and mind, and coordinate the body.

Finally, accomplish what you couldn't do before and gain an experience like never before.Liberating Nature originates from Stanislav's performance teaching system, comprehensively refers to Freud's psychoanalysis and the psychological dance teaching theory of Kedelbinder, the early German performance teaching master, and combines the courses precipitated by his own experience.

Ding Cheng himself has also trained in school, but now he has a deeper understanding.The essence of the so-called liberation of nature is actually how to unearth the blocked subconscious mind and get through the coordination relationship with the body behavior.

In the final analysis, it is still a process of constantly entering into the inner self to discover oneself, not a simple process that can be achieved by being playful, crazy, and imitating animals. Otherwise, it would be more appropriate to directly find shrews, drunkards, and gorillas as actors.

I once read a report. When Ang Lee talked about Sura, the actor of the Youth Pi, he said that after a long time of selection, they found him among [-] teenagers, and it was basically a blank sheet of paper.

Then he had three months of performance class training, focusing on physical endurance and strength, and for performance, he invited a yoga teacher to use meditation training to allow Sura to find the hidden in her heart after a period of self-doubt. part.

Nowadays, many actors like to meditate. For example, Li Chengjie, when he has time to film, he has to meditate to tap his inner potential.

Because since the birth of human beings, all kinds of shackles have been superimposed on our bodies and minds. At the beginning, we didn’t know that fire would scald, water would choke people to death, vicious dogs would bite people, and we didn’t know that we would fall when we climbed to the edge on the table...

It is all about correcting the boundaries of one's life and self in various crises. When one grows up to a certain age, the body has enough to understand various dangers and become a subconscious mind, and learn countless ways to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages.

Mind and behavior are constantly constrained and accompany us throughout our lives. For example, we gradually know that we can’t talk casually in class, we can’t become geniuses, we can’t fly, we can’t confess our love to people we like, and we can’t easily express our dreams. Invite ridicule and so on.

In these processes, we find the shell of self-protection, and at the same time imprison the soul. For actors, this is the biggest obstacle to performance.

Actors need to believe that because they have to play different lives and roles, they need to constantly let go of themselves and break through the blockade of themselves.This requires going deep into the heart and unearthing the imprisoned subconscious to convince yourself.

Any training method is actually a ritual. If a person wants to learn to ride a bicycle, he finds that he can learn it every time he drinks a cup of tea and wears blue clothes. Over time, he will choose to drink a cup of tea and wear blue clothes before riding a bicycle. colored clothes.

Even all the descendants of his disciples and grandchildren will gradually drink a cup of tea and wear blue clothes before riding a bicycle regardless of the reason. This is the power of belief.

Many teachers of the Two Swords acting class only teach some basic methods of liberating nature, and mistakenly teach students that this is an introductory class in acting and how to let go.

In fact, it's useless!

In Ding Cheng's view, actors who have undergone repeated inward training have a kind of quiet power.True master comedians, no matter Chaplin, Delman, Zhou Xingchi, Ge You, are actually taciturn people in private.

Guo Degang once said:

Crazy on stage,
Resignation is still a madman,

That's a madman!
