perfect character

The crew's project approval is very fast. These years, there are many costume dramas, and the competitiveness of modern theater venues is correspondingly much smaller.In order not to delay the shooting, Jiang Qiushi quickly entered the group.

[Desperate Pursuit] is essentially a commercial film. On the day of the launch, there was a live broadcast to stir up excitement. In addition to the official media, many entertainment self-media also went to the scene to film and interview.

"What we can see now is that the crew is ready for the opening ceremony. Look for our leading actor... Your tenth brother, ah, tenth brother is here! Look!" Jiang Qiushi who was offering incense.

The barrage swipe across, and the Maple Leaf army is occupying the high ground in the live broadcast room.

"Brother Ten is offering incense, and our sister Qin is also there. It's been a long time since we saw her, and sister Qin is even more beautiful."

"Then our sister Ting and brother Yan. They are also performing the ceremony."

The girl in the live broadcast moved the selfie stick, revealing half of her delicate face without hesitation, her big eyes narrowed her smile happily: "Everyone is very serious, there will be benefits for the crew later, and I will select some bullet screens to testify against the actors." Ask."

The barrage instantly moved faster.

Almost everyone wanted to ask Jiang Qiushi. Unfortunately, he was surrounded by the media and couldn't get away.As the leading actor, Jiang Qiushi's status is naturally not comparable to that of ordinary young actors. Almost all self-media reporters revolve around him.His demeanor was not very warm, but he was also reserved, polite, gentle, and unhurried.

The live broadcast lady couldn't squeeze in for a while, so she had to circle around the periphery, and the screen was aimed at Jiang Qiushi, attracting more popularity and more rewards.

"Damn, is that reporter an idiot? Put the microphone in someone's mouth?"

"Others are standing well, but that one is crowding around."

"It means that my tenth brother has a good temper. Anyone else would have scolded him to death..."

"Don't! You will be accused of playing big cards after scolding."

Naturally, the live broadcast was for fans to watch. Many Maple Leafs went viral after seeing this scene, and it didn't look so good on the barrage.

Jiang Qiushi maintained an impeccable smile, and the self-media reporter kept pushing the microphone forward, blocking his face and being impolite, taking advantage of his height and the fact that most of the others were women, he kept asking questions.

After Jiang Qiushi answered three or four questions, that person still didn't give up, and the others became impatient, pushing and pushing him secretly to get him out.

Jiang Qiushi nodded and smiled at the other interviewers, and continued to answer questions.

On the first day of filming, he was still wearing regular clothes. It was not too hot in June, and Jiang Qiushi's black suit made him look taller, longer, and with a stern demeanor.

There were many screen lickers, and the fans who were still exhaling fragrance just now blew rainbow farts one by one.

"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah brother ten is so handsome!"

"Ah, the eyes are so beautiful."

"Brother Ten looks so handsome in black clothes."

"Hey? Where are the rest of the crew?"

The live broadcast lady also saw the barrage, and the selfie stick moved to point at the crew who had moved aside after the interview.

On that side, the heroine Yang Qin happened to be standing beside the director, waving at Jiang Qiushi from a distance.

Yang Qin is two years older than Jiang Qiushi, time is cruel, but maintenance can be delayed.She married into a wealthy family early and took good care of herself. Now she often comes out to film and invest in movies. With her high-quality works, she was selected as one of the four little flowers in the entertainment circle, and she has a lot of fans.

Jiang Qiushi heaved a sigh of relief, and finally found an opportunity to say goodbye to the reporters, and his own assistant handed out small gifts.

Amidst the continuous sound of snapping pictures, the male and female protagonists stood together.

Director Ji said: "I saw you were there for so long, so I asked you to come over and take a group photo."

Jiang Qiushi blinked and smiled: "Thank you, Director Ji, for keeping you waiting."

A group of people gathered together, and Bier: "Three, two, one—eggplant!"

"Are you ready?"

The photographer is ok.

The female protagonist Yang Qin, the second female Li Mengting, and the third female Rong Lina are all beauties, and the male second and male third are not bad either.

However, among the group of people, Jiang Qiushi was the most eye-catching at a glance.Even if he stood on the side, didn't make any movements, just stood there quietly smiling, it made people feel peerless and independent.

The photographer looked at the negative and was amazed.

The opening ceremony was very fast. After the crew politely invited people away, they began to clean up the venue and prepare to take some makeup photos. The live broadcast was also withdrawn amidst the public's reluctance.

The makeup photos were also taken very quickly. After all, there are not many protagonist groups, and it is a modern drama. It is enough for the protagonists to pose in front of the whiteboard after changing their clothes.

After the clothes were changed, the whiteboard was removed from the original venue, ready to take a trial shot.

The first filming started was a short outdoor scene in the latter part of the film.

The male and female protagonists are childhood sweethearts who have played since childhood. If they are unfamiliar at the beginning, it will be difficult to handle later.

Generally, when the protagonists are not familiar with the situation, the crew will shoot scenes with more intimate actions in the first scene.

[Death Pursuit] is no exception.

Director Ji specially picked a scene of life and death first, there are no lines, just cry.

Jiang Qiushi and Yang Qin had just finished taking makeup photos, and there seemed to be nothing to change about their outfits.The two discussed with the script while putting on makeup, and then memorized the lines better.The assistant director directed the setting of the venue, and Director Ji went over to talk to them about the play.

Jiang Qiushi's filming belongs to the immersive experience school.He lacks emotions and desires, like an empty shell, he doesn't care how much emotion is instilled, because these are all fake, rationality will let him get rid of these redundant emotions like taking out trash after filming, without being affected.He is not an acting professional, so he never pays attention to the so-called method.

As long as it is touching and real, it is enough.

Yang Qin was born in a major, so her acting skills are naturally not bad.Putting on simple and neat clothes, with "blood stains" smeared on her face, and her gentle long curly hair tied up, she stood there, just like the song in the book.

A song of perseverance, wisdom and courage.

Jiang Qiushi adjusted his facial expression, looking horribly indifferent.

The original work of [Desperate Pursuit] is an unusual criminal investigation novel. The hero Jiang Xingzhou is a completely tragic character.

But no one expected that a series of stories started because of Jiang Xingzhou. He was planning to take revenge on everyone, including Qu Song's father.

At the end of the story, Jiang Xingzhou, like the villains in all movies, spoke out all his actions very conventionally.He counted everything, he attracted the police and officials around, and he made all the price to be paid tasted the evil result.But the only thing he didn't expect is that after knowing the truth, Qu Song still loves him and is willing to die for him.

Yang Qin only needs to play the role of a corpse.

She rubbed her eyes, the eye circles instantly turned red, and she shed tears.She found a place, ready to lie down at any time, and then just be held in Jiang Qiushi's arms.

"Okay, your feeling is right." Director Ji said, "Go and try it now to see the lighting effect."

While talking, he gestured: "Yes, come here later, look down at Qu Song, I have already told you the feeling here. Then squat down, then kneel down and hug her upper body... blabla"

The camera was ready, Qu Song adjusted his position and lay down on the ground, closing his eyes safely.

This is a scene at the end of the movie. In a word, it is the hero who dies for love.

"Action!"

Jiang Qiushi... No, it's Jiang Xingzhou.

Jiang Xingzhou walked over slowly.

Jiang Xingzhou came to Qu Song's body.

Toe kicked her hand.

He seemed expressionless, and seemed about to cry again.

Qu Song died according to the plan, the next step... yes, the next step is to get her to the side of the road.

Then the old man will follow the established plan, the road is slippery, the brakes fail, he will definitely drive into the thickest tree on the side of the road to prevent a car accident, and he will definitely jump out of the driver's window in advance, so that he He couldn't find his daughter leaning against the big tree on the side of the co-pilot.

Subsequent explosions will destroy some detailed evidence.

The error of time of death is within one hour, as long as there is no autopsy... No, the forensic doctor will not go for an autopsy. As a family member, I only hope that Qu Song can be buried in the ground and will not listen to the murderer's explanation. This is just an ordinary car accident. Why an autopsy?

In the end, there can only be one conclusion - Qu Song was killed by his father driving a car.

Jiang Xingzhou had already thought about the outcome.

With a strange smile on his face, he was thinking about his plan to squat down, wearing medical gloves to prevent fingerprints from leaking, and he was going to pick up Qu Song and put him in the designated place.

For some reason, Jiang Xingzhou's whole body was trembling, and finally even his fingertips trembled.

He subconsciously touched Qu Song's face.

He wore rubber gloves, which still felt soft through the layer. He looked at his motionless girlfriend, and suddenly froze.

It is difficult to broadcast live outdoors, so Director Ji explained while directing the filming.

"Jiang Xingzhou only thought about the plan in his heart. He didn't expect that he really had such an emotion, which he had always dismissed. Jiang Xingzhou always thought that he was lying to Qu Song, and he was not completely cheating. He felt that he was right about Qu Song. Song has feelings, but this little feeling is just used as a cover for deception."

"But now that the plan has been achieved, Jiang Xingzhou vaguely realized how important Qu Song really is."

The textual expression of this paragraph in the original work is very contagious. There are so many psychological descriptions at various stages, and the human heart is inherently complicated and contradictory.But if it is going to be filmed, the effect of this paragraph will be difficult to reflect. A villain who pretended in the early stage suddenly becomes enlightened in the finale, which will only make the audience feel inexplicable and force positive energy.

After the screenwriter adapted, in addition to increasing the plot of Jiang Xingzhou's "probation" in the early stage, the plot was also deliberately lengthened a lot.

Jiang Xingzhou's suicide was only five words in the script, and there were only a few fragments of lines, and the rest depended on the actors themselves.

This will test the actor's skills even more, whether the audience can see the reasonable and complicated changes of this character in just 1 minute.

The three discussed for a long time, and decided to take a test first.

……

Jiang Xingzhou was supposed to carry her to the side of the road.His eyes, his movements, his expression...all are struggling.

The camera on the right camera zoomed in and zoomed in on the close-up.

These slight tremors, from the fingertips to the lips, even the pupils shook violently.

In the end, Jiang Xingzhou's eyes completely collapsed.

It was as if a layer of film had been removed from his body, revealing a newborn sincerity that he dared not reveal to others.

An emotion called sorrow surged up bit by bit, condensed into drops of water, and filled the eye sockets.

"I……"

Jiang Xingzhou's lips trembled.

He finally realized what a stupid thing he had done.

He has always claimed to live in darkness, but he didn't realize that the last ray of light was buried by himself.

Jiang Xingzhou's tear did not fall out.He hugged the person in his arms tightly. In the close-up of the screen, the man's thin body was trembling constantly, and his throat overflowed with uncontrollable painful and desperate whimpers, like a lone wolf who lost his partner.

"... Qu Song... Qu Song... What have I done?"

"I was wrong..." He touched her face and kissed her cheek, "Forgive me, please? Me, I made a mistake again."

At this moment, he was at a loss like a child, obsessed with seeking affirmation.

Director Ji: "Okay, let's struggle a little more in the eyes, and a little more sad, remember, just now it was a sudden outburst of emotion, and now I'm slowly settling down, and gradually deepening, do you understand?"

"Move the camera and clap your hands now."

He took out an individually packaged tablet from his pocket and swallowed it lightly.

The face was uncontrollably grim because of the pain, but there was a happy smile on it.

I'm sorry, I've come to you to redeem my sins.

"Without you, I realized that I couldn't live at all. But... I didn't understand this truth until you left."

Director Ji recited with emotion, trying to find emotions for them.

The left and right cameras captured Jiang Xingzhou's last smile before his death.

They hug each other tightly, beside the dark and dirty road.

Pain, redemption, happiness.

"cut!"

"Not bad, you kid." Director Ji praised, "Let's add a few details, and I'll add a few more later."

Great directors are always striving for perfection. Even though the one just now is also very good, as long as it is not perfect, it can be improved.

This is how high-quality movies are made.

Although it is a commercial film, Director Ji is also hoping to win several awards.So the heroine was called over again, and the three of them kept discussing.

The others had no drama, and most of them went back to sleep in the RV.Young actors don’t have a car, and some sit on the sidelines waiting to learn from the scriptures, and most of them sit and play games.

An unknown supporting role came closer. He was fairly decent, but he was not too tall. A classmate who played the heroine in the movie, now leaned forward to listen.Yang Qin glanced at him and didn't speak, but he spoke first: "Director Ji, brother ten, sister Qin, I have no experience and want to learn more from you seniors, don't you bother me?"

He stretched out his hand and didn't hit the smiling face. His attitude was humble and he didn't get in the way of anything.What's more, it is very easy to distinguish between really building relationships or wanting to learn.

Seeing that Director Ji and Yang Qin didn't show any disgust, Jiang Qiu silently acquiesced.

Other tricks: Damn it, let's curry favor with this kid first!

They had to come over and chatter, Director Ji took the notebook and drove everyone away, and the assistant director and the scene manager also came over with dark faces to drive people away.

The young actor who caused the commotion was banished to the side, and the others ignored him, thinking that this person was trying to gain a lot of money.The man didn't care, he was amused, and sat in a seat not too far away to listen.

Jiang Qiushi secretly wrote down the little actor.

The environment of the crew is really bad. No matter how glamorous the TV drama is, the background behind the set is a mess.It’s better to just start shooting now, and it’s better to shoot scenes in the later stage, in a word-shooting blockbusters in the ruins.

Jiang Qiushi and Yang Qin took seven or eight more pictures before being let go by Director Ji.

Why do movies take only two hours, but sometimes it takes three or four months to shoot like a TV series?It was the director who worked it out slowly. One piece needs to be shot five or six times, and seven or eight times is normal.

Want to ask what is not good so reshoot?

Well, anywhere is fine, it just feels like not enough...not enough...you know?

Jiang Qiushi: I don’t really understand, but I’m an emotionless repeater.

No matter how many times, just do it again.

A good actor is not about being able to produce amazing effects at one time, but about being stable.

No matter how many times you shoot, what kind of emotion you want, you can express it steadily and steadily.

How many actors are there? It is okay to cry once or twice, but not enough to cry three or four times.

Five or six times, seven or eight times, or even dozens of times?

Can cry out the emotions that the director needs, that is an excellent actor.
