actor is a dog
Chapter 72
Filming has always been a tough job.Many people think that filming makes a lot of money, so the hard work is nothing, and some people think that acting itself is easy, and they can just find a good-looking person to act.
When you really enter this line of work, you know that being an actor is really not easy.No, it should be said that being a dedicated actor requires courage and the spirit of going all out, except for those who shoot a movie where most of the shots are doubles.That's not filming, that's called making money.
A wide range of stand-in shots are used in TV dramas, as long as the shots are cut well, but movies are not allowed to do so. The shooting methods of the two shots are different, and the screen for watching movies is large enough, so the use of stand-ins can still be seen by the audience possible.
Once the audience noticed it, they felt that a substitute was used in this place.It will immediately break away from the plot of the movie, and some viewers even feel that the more they watch it, the more embarrassing they become.
Ordinary film directors would do it like this, but under Liu Dong's hands, there is absolutely no such easy job.
In his words, it is "Why can't you do what a stand-in can do? I can hire this stand-in for filming with very little money."It's not that there are no talents, but they are buried. If you go down, someone will definitely come up! '
At this very moment, Yu Xiangchen is filming a very dangerous scene on the dirt land in the countryside. Even though the assistant director and other staff have repeatedly assured that there will be no problem and that it is absolutely safe, Li Yuan still sweats for Yu Xiangchen.
Not far ahead, a group of Japanese soldiers and their officers are coming here.Soldiers walk with their guns in hand, and officers ride forward on horseback.The soldiers had been traveling for a long time, and they were very tired. In addition, the surrounding area was bare, and it was easy to see if there was an enemy ambushing, so they didn't think there would be any danger here.
The officer looked very serious and alert, but he didn't seem to find anyone suspicious.
Just when they were unimpeded all the way, there was a sudden explosion from the middle of the team.Someone actually laid a mine here, and these people actually knew the army's route in advance!
The officer's horse was frightened, raised its front legs high and began to shake people wildly, neighing high-pitched from time to time.
Yu Xiangchen set his posture according to the countermeasures taught to him by the professionals before, and then he clenched the reins tightly and refused to let go.Just kidding, being thrown off by a horse is not a fun thing, it’s fine if you fall and break a bone, the horse suddenly gets excited and then kicks you, then it’s over.
For newcomers who come into contact with horses for the first time, the master will warn them not to stand behind the horse.This is what keeps the horse from giving you a rear kick and kicking your head out of a big problem.
Although there are professional horse trainers next to him, Yu Xiangchen can't take risks. Besides, this is filming, and even a little bit of professionalism will make him serious.
Generally, when shooting such high-intensity and dangerous shots, the actors will rehearse several times in advance, and the real shooting will start after everyone has no problem with the positioning. Therefore, before the explosion in the rear, the group performances will be dispersed.
It doesn't matter if there are no accidents in this kind of explosion scene. Once it happens, it will be a big event. If it is mild, it will be disfigurement. If it is serious, it may be dead.Although this kind of thing doesn't happen every year in the entertainment industry, at least once every three years or so there will be an accident where an actor's body is burned due to a staff error.
After Liu Dong yelled to stop, Li Yuan relaxed his body, and then the horse trainer began to comfort the horse.
This explosion is just one of the shots in this kind of war-era movie, and there are still many explosion scenes waiting to be shot.
Seeing Yu Xiangchen getting closer, Li Yuan and his nephew rushed to meet him.At this time, Li Yuan regretted persuading Yu Xiangchen to take the movie.
With a good face, what if the pyrotechnician makes a mistake?Even if this thing explodes a second earlier, there is a possibility of an accident.Although the body has insulating clothing, the exposed skin is not protected.
Li Yuan only had this idea when he got the film contract. If he went back to the time when he saw the invitation, he would still think it was a rare and good opportunity.
Male number three saw Li Yuan's enthusiasm for Yu Xiangchen, envy flashed in his eyes.Not every artist has an agent to accompany the crew to film.It seems that he only brought one assistant with him, because his manager has other artists to take care of.
The filming of this scene is about four o'clock in the afternoon. If it is an ordinary office worker, it will probably be off work after a while, but for a crew, even if it is midnight, the shooting will not stop.
Like this kind of movie, there are actually a lot of late-night shots, because the subject matter determines that this is not destined to be a movie under the sun.War is hopeless, and the people struggle painfully in the dark.But this is not completely falling into the abyss. After batch after batch of patriots die, they will always usher in hope and a new life.
It was time to finish work in the early morning, and Yu Xiangchen took the towel and wiped his sweating face. He was always in good health, and there was nothing wrong with filming in cold water at the earliest, but now Yu Xiangchen's face is pale, and he seems to be very sick. collapse.
"It's okay." Li Yuan handed over the water glass, took the used towel and threw it to the new assistant Li Mao, observing Yu Xiangchen's face and said: "Why don't you ask for a vacation tomorrow, don't hold on , Whoever joins the crew can finish all the work non-stop, when the filming is not over, the body is the most important thing."
"No, continue tomorrow." Yu Xiangchen wiped his mouth with his hand after drinking the water, and said: "The inner drama is a bit difficult, too involved."
too much drama...
Li Yuan paused for a moment, then continued to follow.His nephew hadn't had much exposure to acting before, so he immediately asked Li Yuan secretly: "Uncle, isn't it a good thing to be in a show? Why does Brother Chen look uncomfortable?"
Li Yuan was a little annoyed, and ignored the question, and left without even stopping.
At the resting place, Li Yuan thought for a while, and then called Zhong Yuze.
Li Yuan seldom contacted Zhong Yuze alone, because when the other party unilaterally pried away his artist, the prestige of the film king was gone forever.He has not said anything, one is that his own artists are willing, and more importantly, they cannot be offended.
Li Yuan took the initiative to contact the other party now, and it was also for Yu Xiangchen.
Although Yu Xiangchen has received a few movies, the response has been good. He has no acting skills and has never been labeled by the media.
But there is a problem that all the previous films basically did not have a few very strong inner struggles, that is, as the saying goes, there are no lines and no exaggerated facial expressions.
Some performances can be perfectly completed with some acting skills. Through skilled acting skills and some emotions, the actor can perfectly control the role.
Yu Xiangchen was also able to control these skills through observation before, and those characters didn't need to spend too much energy.
But this role is not good, there are thousands of ways to perform, and what he has learned before is only a part of them.
If you can't master all the skills to play a man who is full of stories with no emotions on the surface, then you need to invest all your emotions and let these real emotions impress the audience.
Li Yuan finally understood why Liu Dong chose Yu Xiangchen, who is relatively young now.It's not because of the opponent's current popularity, nor because of Zhong Yingdi's face, let alone his appearance.What Liu Dong needs is acting skills, an actor with some acting skills but not thick, and with deep emotions.
There are too few actors with this kind of quality. Those who are a little older already have proficient skill performances. Even if they are asked to be emotional, they will unconsciously bring something else.
As for the young ones, their acting skills are not very good, and they can’t even master many basic performances, let alone their emotional involvement. Many handsome young actors are energetic and handsome when they take photos and interviews. His facial expression is dull, and he only basically stares, talks and tears.
How could an actor like this fall into the eyes of those real directors.Even purely commercial films, in order to attract box office, are just soy sauce for actors who are popular but lacking in acting skills. Basically, they just show their faces and give them a line.
Because of a phone call from Li Yuan, Zhong Yuze flew to find Yu Xiangchen early in the morning.
When he arrived, Yu Xiangchen was in deep sleep. He finished work early in the morning and had only slept for more than four hours. Besides, Yu Xiangchen was not in good condition. And less time.
Zhong Yuze walked over slowly to take a look, and saw that Yu Xiangchen's eyes were turning slightly blue, so he went out to talk to director Liu Dong.
Zhong Yuze seldom used power to overwhelm others, and Director Liu Dong was not a director who could be bullied casually. He briefly talked about Yu Xiangchen's current situation, and the other party gave him a 'generous' rest time.
"Xiao Zhong, I know that you and Xiang Chen are good brothers and have a good relationship. It's really tiring to be the lead actor, but you see, there are a lot of people coming and going around me, and none of them are tired. The prop designer and the set designer hardly slept. , it’s not working as usual.”
Seeing that Zhong Yuze couldn't stop laughing, Liu Dong changed the subject and began to relax: "Let's take a while, let him rest a little longer, the hard work of the staff is due to physical fatigue, and he will recover after the filming is over and sleep a little longer. As an actor, the double blow of physical exhaustion and mental exhaustion, you are someone who has experienced it, so teach Xiang Chen well."
Speaking of this, Liu Dong specially emphasized: "Don't teach too many skills, I just value his true emotional expression."
After listening to Liu Dong's words, Zhong Yuze immediately understood that Yu Xiangchen might have endured too many unwarranted feelings, which led to his depression.
With a subject like this, unless it is a TV series, there are so many silly and sweet movies. The tragic sacrifice of the protagonist at the end is common. The characters need to support too many emotions, which makes Yu Xiangchen a little lost in those emotions.
Many people are good at acting, but if they can control all of them, including the entire entertainment industry, there are only a few veteran movie stars, and most of them are not young.
While these people can perfectly use their skills, they can resonate strongly with the audience and use their acting skills to drive the audience into the play.
Liu Dong looked at Zhong Yuze, smiled suddenly, and said to Zhong Yuze: "Actually, I wanted you to be the protagonist of my film at the beginning, but after a few days, I didn't think so."
Zhong Yuze smiled knowingly, and directly pointed out why Liu Dong regretted it at the time, "Do you think that my acting routine has not changed since I won the award?"
Talking to smart people is a way to save energy, Liu Dong said bluntly: "Your acting skills have never declined over the years, and have always been stable, but it is precisely because of stability that it cannot bring me motivation and momentum. "
"The state of my filmmaking in the past two years has also been very stable. Most of the audience said it was good after watching it, but this only shows that the script is good, the actors are good, and the editing is good. I don't see what I want to express have an impact on the audience. So I chose Xiang Chen, who has more emotional traces."
"He is a young actor and has not won any authoritative awards. Every shot of him is full of surprises for me. I believe that he can also bring surprises to the audience."
"This kind of movie that tends to be deep needs a new face, otherwise there will always be so many people coming and going, and the audience will get used to it if the director is not new."
