After getting Shidi at the start

Chapter 107
The sound effects of the gun battle must be added later. After all, there are many ways to shoot real guns in reality. Prop guns, blood bags, and various gun marks can all be made temporarily by the prop group. There is no need to do it. a big scene.

Not to mention whether it will be reported or not, it is risky and costly to get it out, so it is better to use props.

Moreover, the focus of this part is not the gun battle, but the close combat afterwards.

I have to say that having a good start is a big boost to confidence in acting, especially Li Mingji's first attempt at filming such an action scene.

From the first scene to this scene, they are all movements that have been learned and practiced before. Although Li Mingji has not reached the point where he can form a conditioned reflex so exaggeratedly, it can be said that he is very familiar with it.

Especially when he is cooperating with those action actors who have been cooperating with him during practice—that’s right, their continuous guest appearances and being beaten will not be able to photograph their faces anyway, so as not to create a sense of disobedience .

Li Mingji's training these days was not in vain, at least he memorized those movements, and he did his best.

But it’s still the problem Director Yuan said, when it is actually used and the speed increases, his movements will deform, but it seems that the sense of strength is in place, so it can be regarded as a loss and a gain.

The rest depends on the post-editing, how the director will choose between his role and the action of the stand-in.

"Okay, let's take a break first, and then we'll move on to the next scene." Because the action scenes in the villa were backlogged up and filmed together, the director's arrangement was the same as rushing to the scene.

The main reason is that the literary and drama part is coming to an end, and the action drama can't be delayed any longer.

Fortunately, I made a sufficiently detailed shooting plan before, and at the same time gave me a lot of room for adjustment in shooting action scenes. Now I hope to gain some flexibility in the future, otherwise if something unexpected happens, it will be over.

After all, there will be many more restrictions on outdoor locations than indoor scenes. Let’s not talk about the environment. For example, during the car chase scene, you have to apply for road closures. There are also weather restrictions, and there are more likely to be interference factors from passers-by.

Nowhere is it like indoors, as long as the props and actors don't pull their hips, other problems are not big.

Therefore, the director is also trying to compress time as much as possible and lower the requirements at the same time.

In fact, there is no way not to lower it, because he doesn't know much about action scenes.

If Li Mingji is a rookie in acting action scenes, then the director Zhang is also a rookie in shooting action scenes, so Director Yuan is needed to follow him all the time.

In terms of fighting, the requirements for action are definitely greater than for acting, just like when the audience is watching TV, they don't pay too much attention to whether the expressions of the fighters are delicate and realistic enough.

The focus is different, and the results are also different.

This is a good thing for Li Mingji. At least part of his shortcomings can be avoided, and he doesn't have to think about whether to take care of it. It's already great to be able to focus on one part.

"Actually, Mingji, you can slow down the speed appropriately, so that it looks better, and then speed up it later..." When Director Zhang said this, he also asked Director Wenyuan: "This should be no problem, right? "

Director Yuan nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, as long as the movements are in place, speeding up or slowing down will have different effects, it depends on the demand."

And if it really doesn't work, the worst case scenario is just to keep it as it is.

Director Zhang was relieved, and asked Li Mingji to try again according to this requirement.

"Well, it looks a bit awkward from the camera, but if the post-production speeds up, it should be able to achieve the effect we require." The executive director looked at it and said so to Director Zhang.

Director Zhang nodded with a smile, and said, "That's it - continue!"

This afternoon's shooting passed like this. Perhaps it was the first time I felt the excitement of fighting. Although everyone knew it was a fake fight and many parts of himself would be cut off, Li Mingji still showed a high degree of concentration and his state was unexpected. good.

Even Brother Wang, who was watching from the sidelines, had a feeling, "Can you explain that Ji is naturally suitable for making action movies? I have never seen his filming efficiency so high."

Xiaoguang thought for a while and said: "I think there are two reasons. One is that Brother Mingji has been preparing for these actions for a long time, and he has accumulated a lot of time. The other is that he just happened to be in good condition today, and he may not be able to do so in the future. It's hard to do that."

Brother Wang rolled his eyes at him and said, "I'll just say it casually, have you really considered it seriously?"

Aya sniggered beside him, Xiaoguang said speechlessly: "Brother Mingji himself said that he will go this way in the future, so what if you think about it seriously?"

"All right, all right, you're right this time, I won't argue with you, you're right."

Xiaoguang: "..."

At this time, after Li Mingji leaned in front of the camera to watch his performance for a while, he suddenly felt an indescribable feeling.

To be honest, although the director's requirements are lowered, the real highlight is the set of action doubles. Li Mingji still mostly plays tricks, but he still put in a lot of effort, and now he is sweating profusely. And the body is also a little sore.

However, the crew seemed to have foreseen this situation, and the professional masseuses they had hired were already in place. Li Mingji didn't need to practice any more today, and he could go there for a massage later.

It's not just him, those in the action group need it more, and anyway, serving one is still serving, and the total number of people is not too many, so they can be regarded as taking advantage of Li Mingji's benefits.

"How about it, is there a feeling of sudden enlightenment?"

Director Zhang didn't pay attention, but Director Yuan noticed something. This man looked low-key, but his mind was very delicate. He had talked with Li Mingji before, so he could observe it.

When Li Mingji was reminded like this, he was a little surprised and said: "It seems so, but it seems like he can't grasp it, like some inspiration."

He couldn't describe it for a while, but Director Yuan smiled and said: "This shows that you still have a talent for making action movies, and such technical things are actually related.

"If one day, you can master the balance between the action and the camera, then even if your background is not good enough, the effect you play will definitely not be bad, understand?"

Li Mingji nodded thoughtfully, then watched Director Yuan bid farewell to Director Zhang, then watched Director Zhang turn around, patted him on the shoulder and said, "It's good today, keep it up. I It seems that your body is also very tired, so go for a massage to relax.

"I'll give you a vacation tomorrow morning. I'll arrange their roles, so you can rest and continue in the afternoon. Of course, don't forget this feeling. If I'm not in a good state then, I'll get angry."

Li Mingji nodded, and then said goodbye to him.

Turning around, I saw Brother Wang and the others waving at him, and Xiaoguang was comparing with his mobile phone.

Li Mingji walked over suspiciously, but he heard Xiaoguang say: "Brother Mingji, I just watched it on the Internet, and it turns out that the show has been broadcast to the eighth episode, and the ratings are currently the first in the same series." , the playback volume is also unprecedented. To put it simply, your drama has become a hit again."

Li Mingji's face was neither sad nor happy, and there was no surprise at all.

"Okay, there's nothing to say about this kind of thing. Send him to the masseur first and let him rest for two hours."

"There's nothing to say, you asked me to search just now?" Xiaoguang muttered, and ran up to support Li Mingji under Brother Wang's stern gaze.

Li Mingji pushed his hand away and said with a smile: "What are you doing, it's not that I can't walk."

"Brother Mingji, just give me a chance to show off..."

Li Ming was too lazy to pay attention to his mischief, and walked ahead on his own.

……

Time flies, it seems that in a blink of an eye, all the scenes in the villa are over, including the action part, and the crew will finally move to the location.

In this period of more than a month, Li Mingji's acting skills have improved somewhat, although most of the action scenes were filmed in the end, and his completion is not bad.

But because there are action doubles, everyone is not too surprised. It can only be said that passing is not a surprise.

Of course, as a newcomer in this area, the action group is already very satisfied with Li Mingji's performance.

At least according to what Director Yuan said, he has taken so many plays and collaborated with so many small fresh meat and popular idols, but there are very few people like Li Mingji who have no foundation but can practice hard on the set and try their best to do it himself.

This point alone is worthy of extra points, at least it will save the crew a lot of trouble, and there is no need to do cutouts, face changes and other actions in the later stage, and only need to edit on the camera.

What's more, Li Mingji has already tried his best within his own scope, and the price in exchange is that he has to go to the masseuse every day, because his body is exhausted, and he even reacts to pain.

Fortunately, the persistence during this period was worthwhile. The villa scene ended earlier than expected, and there were still a few days of rest before going to the location.

Because Li Mingji didn't have a part in the scene at the beginning, he could relax.

However, Li Mingji did not leave the crew, and followed the crew to the location first, and did not intend to leave.

Of course he won't leave, it's fine if it's an ordinary location shooting, but the first location scene arranged by the director is actually an explosion scene, so he naturally can't miss it.

In fact, blasting is the most difficult part of the show. From the director to the participating actors, to the props team, it is a test.

The investment in this drama, judging from TV dramas, can be said to be sky-high. In fact, except for Li Mingji, who is a top-tier salary, the salary of other actors is relatively reasonable, and the real big money can be said to be placed in on these big scenes.

Although there are only a few blasting scenes in total, there are also car chase scenes.

Like in ordinary TV, chasing a car is just watching thrills, and it may be over with a little bump in the end.

But here it is a genuine, real collision. Of course, the convention used is a vehicle that is about to be scrapped. After all, it is impossible to spend too much money.
