The character played by the small supporting actor is the brother of the twins. There is no name or storyline in the film.

In the plot, the twins "encounter" Truman at work every day on the road, and the three of them chat for a while.

The purpose of the encounter was to have Truman stand in front of the poster behind him and show an advertisement for a few seconds. After all, all the shots of The Truman Show follow Truman, and the show requires advertising sponsorship.

The two actors who played the twins were not twins. Lao Zhao and Lao Wu were so similar in appearance and figure that they were transformed into an eighty-cent resemblance after being put on makeup.

Lao Zhao grabbed Lao Wu and said in a very low voice, "Are you crazy?!"

This guy thinks he's very good at acting. He lectures anyone he catches in private about the application of methods, etc., including some professional terms that he doesn't understand.

Lao Wu's reputation among group performers is very poor. You have been in the industry for most of your life and you are still an amateur. Why should you point fingers?

It's good now. Brother Thirteen is here to give you guidance. Why don't you go to heaven?

Ignoring the restraints from his colleagues, Lao Wu frowned and continued, "My action of pressing Teacher Huang against the wall just now was too deliberate. I mean, I know I wanted to show a sense of stage to set off the absurd situation of The Truman. But it’s too deliberate.”

Huang Baiyou stared at the supporting character who suddenly spoke out and grasped the key word "too deliberate".

Directly questioning the judgment of the lead actor and director.

Director Cen He looked unkind, but he also started to play back the material he had just shot. Huang Baiyou also came over to see if there was any problem. Seeing is believing.

Everyone re-watched it and unanimously judged that the play was fine. The "unanimous" included Huang Baiyou and Cen He.

It's a waste of time, Cen He frowned, what kind of conspicuous package does a supporting character have?

If Lao Wu was Huang Baiyou or Vitaya, Cen He's thoughts would be different.

"What you analyzed just now is correct. You have to use deliberate effects to express the stage effect. It really can't be too deliberate." Huang Baiyou explained that the performance matter still needs to be clarified in detail.

He said, "But the tone of the movie is a light comedy and irony. Looking at the main tone, the performance just now is very suitable."

"The theme and tone..." Any work has a tone. If it is a comedy, then there is nothing wrong with a little stage drama or a little exaggeration.

Suddenly Lao Wu felt a little scared, especially when Cen He cast an unkind look. He immediately became shorter, "My problem is, I'm sorry, Director Cen, I'm sorry, Teacher Huang, I delayed the filming of the crew."

"There's nothing wrong with saying it if you find shortcomings. It's all to make the movie better." Huang Baiyou said, "Besides, you didn't get the entire script and don't know the tone of the movie. I don't blame you."

Since there is no problem, let’s continue shooting.

"Next scene, newsstand." Cen He directed with a loudspeaker.

It is easiest to be Cen He's on-set director, because Director Cen will also take over the work of the assistant director.

Hmm... having a loud voice is indeed a talent. Huang Baiyou thought of Director Qi who could make his voice spread throughout the crew without using a loudspeaker. That was a gift.

"That's great. Do you know that what you said is like slapping Bai Emperor and Director Cen in the face." Old Zhao gave a thumbs up.

"I just want to film the scene well." Lao Wu said bravely, "Director Cen and Brother Thirteen are not so narrow-minded."

"You're right. Brother Thirteen and Director Cen are not so petty, but what about the assistant director? And what about the actors who want to curry favor with Brother Thirteen? With small roles like ours, no one can survive if they speak up." Lao Zhao said .

"Isn't it okay for everyone when the show is over?" Lao Wu's words became quieter and quieter. He was approaching his forties, and he was no longer so naive. There were too many cheats on the crew.

Soon Lao Wu realized how realistic the adult society was. When the crew had dinner at noon, usually a bunch of people would gather in a circle and get blown away while eating. Now he seemed to be isolated.

Even Lao Zhao, whom I was familiar with on weekdays, also walked away.

The emperor is not in a hurry, but the eunuch is. Director Cen and Brother Thirteen didn't say anything, but you can't wait. Lao Wu cursed in his heart.

Lao Wu was busy eating without stopping. Anyway, he would finish filming tomorrow, and he would change crews after filming.

"...I hope this matter won't spread." Lao Wu was really scared if this matter spread to other crews.

Lao Wu really shouldn't talk too much, and Lao Wu regretted it. After all, he still had to bear the mortgage loan and the children's tuition fees.

"Hey, brother, can you take a look at your script?" Suddenly a person came up, playing the role of a bus driver...what the hell, Lao Wu didn't know this person's name.

"What?" Lao Wu was confused.

"I feel like you have your own insights into the role, and you must also have a unique understanding of performance." The visitor first explained, and then introduced himself, "My name is Chang Tao, and I am a young actor."

The person who came here introduced himself, and the key thing was that he also praised himself for his insights into the character, which opened up Lao Wu's chatterbox.

"I don't want to take it seriously because of my full insights. I just have a little analysis." Lao Wu took out the script. In fact, this small character who didn't even have a name only had two scenes in total. He was a tool man in the film.

In the film, he is just a tool, but as an actor, he must do his best. Look at Lao Wu's small budget.

[Character name: Song Qiao

I raised a son and worked hard to be on the world-famous The Truman Show.

Saying hello to Truman every morning and letting the advertisement appear in front of the camera are the most important tasks, and they also make the family rich...]

What a small biography of a few thousand words, as well as notes on a few lines, giving the tool character a soul.

"The writing is good, the character biographies are organized, and the line analysis is quite professional." Chang Tao said, "Actors should work so hard."

Lao Wu accepted the first half of the compliment, but he had a slight objection to the second half. There were too few people who worked as hard as him.

Until Chang Tao also took out his own script, a biography of the character, the character's attitude towards Truman, and the behavior of his attitude, eyes, and a series of analyses, including not only text but also tables.

Lao Wu's eyes changed when he looked at Chang Tao. There were hidden dragons and crouching tigers in the crew, but a small special extra was actually willing to work so hard.

"I have worked so hard, but I feel that some of my efforts have been in vain." Chang Tao said the key point of his words, "Would you like to try Chao Jing's acting skills?"

When most people hear this, they will definitely ask the Chaosya Sect what is behind the focus of the words?

Lao Wu, who was proud of his own analysis and could even be said to support his acting career, was a little angry at the time.

"What's the problem? What's wrong with my analysis?" Lao Wu asked.

From Lao Wu's eyes, Chang Tao could see that if he didn't say something today, this matter would definitely be difficult to deal with.

Fortunately, Chang Tao is not just talking casually. He said, "The superficial purpose of writing a character biography is to enrich the character, but the deeper level must be to serve the performance effect."

"How does this memory about the character and his children help? Or what do you want to perform through this episode?" Chang Tao asked.

"It can make the character fuller..."

Chang Tao asked, "What is the fullness of this character? Just the performance just now."

Lao Wu still struggled a few words, "Even if I don't show it, it makes me feel more confident."

"Then if you find a characteristic, will you feel more confident? For example, it will emphasize that he is short of money, so he must serve his sponsor well." Chang Tao said casually.

The casual remark really made sense. Lao Wu thought about it for a while, but still didn't want to admit it.

"I think you are quite talented. Let me introduce you to the Super Analysis Sect." Chang Tao said again.

"...How much?" Lao Wu asked.

Hey, doesn't this make him a liar?

Chang Tao explained the origin of the Super Analysis School, and Wu Zinan formulated detailed rules. Each member can introduce a hard-working actor.

After two years of development, [effort] has really been engraved into the bones of the Chaosya Sect.

This is why others stay away from Lao Wu, thinking that he has offended the director and the leading actor, but Chang Tao will come directly to him, thinking that he is very courageous and hardworking in making suggestions for performances.

The Superanalyst School is really cultivating a different group of actors.

After listening to Chang Tao's explanation, Lao Wu thought that Huang Baiyou must have admired him...a strange misunderstanding.
