After The Vicious Cannon Fodder Was Reborn

Everyone in the crew knew that Tao Mu was very good at leading people, and it might be a bit exaggerated to describe it like entering the play every minute.But as long as the acting skills are on the level and you have carefully prepared before filming, then when playing with Tao Mu, your emotions are indeed more likely to be catalyzed.

But no matter how much the king grabs it, he can't move the bronze.With Shen Yu's current acting skills, even if Tao Mu wanted to lead, it would depend on Shen Yu's ability to compete.After all, Tao Mu is just an actor, not a kangaroo.

What's more, although Shen Yu wanted Tao Mu to bring him into the play, there was only one scene between the two of them - the chaotic battle on the pier at the finale of the film.

Yan Sheng's undercover identity was exposed, and he led the police to the pier to encircle and suppress gangsters who wanted to abscond to Southeast Asia.During the shootout, Yan Yu helped Zhou Yuanting block the gun. After leaving a last word, Zhou Yuanting abandoned his body and fled, leaving with the gang boss.

Of course, in the mainland version, because Zhongju was dissatisfied with the death of the positive character, the evil forces finally escaped with impunity, which added a scene to the crew, that is, the gangster and Zhou Yuanting who wanted to abscond ended up in jail.However, Director Xu believed that this change did not conform to the theme of the script and the deep meaning of the movie, and he always disagreed with this change.The two sides were deadlocked.It wasn't until a year later that the crew compromised.

However, pirated DVDs of "Black and White" have flooded the mainland.In the end, after the film was released in the mainland, the box office did not exceed 1000 million.

This is also an important reason why Director Xu invited Tao Mu to bring money into the group, but Tao Mu politely declined.

码头

The classic framing that appears in many Xiangcheng gangster movies, the props team and the lighting camera are busy setting up the set.

Tao Mu and several other celebrities were sitting in the dressing room, putting on makeup while waiting for the show.

Because there is a fight scene, and it is the climax scene of the finale, everyone's looks are very cool.The gangsters are all in black suits and black shirts, and the police are all in Flying Tigers special combat uniforms.

As one of the protagonists in this scene, the gun used by Zhou Yuanting is a Glock 17 pistol.Caliber 9mm.The main feature of this kind of firearm is that plastic parts are widely used, the weight is small, the mechanism is reliable, and the ammunition capacity is large.

But there is basically no need to think about this kind of problem when shooting movies.As we all know, it is common to shoot shootout movies, even if the protagonist is holding a pistol that can only hold six bullets.As long as the plot requires, there will always be bullets in the protagonist's gun.

Those who have no bullets in their guns can only be supporting actors.

For example Tao Mu.When he was filming the shootout scene, there were many shots of changing magazines with one hand.Because he had trained in the police academy for several months before, Tao Mu's movements were very skilled and standard.Unlike the special police instructors with rich practical experience invited by the crew, Tao Mu also considers the camera angle and character temperament when doing actions.When he was training in the police academy, he designed a lot of tactical moves for Zhou Yuanting in combination with the plot.After several months of silent training, now he is not too handsome in front of the camera.

To use the words of Queen Fang teasing Tao Mu, it is that Mr. Tao is definitely professional in playing handsome.So much so that during the shooting breaks, even Zhou Yanqing and several other big guys couldn't help coming over to ask Tao Mu for advice on changing magazines, posing and other ways to be handsome.

The filming location chosen by the crew was an abandoned pier.Considering that this shootout is the last climax of the entire film, the scene is very grand, involving more than 200 actors, and the scene scheduling is very complicated.So Director Xu decided to shoot in several parts.First shoot the literary play, then shoot the close-up part of the single-player fighting scene, and finally shoot the group play part.

Because it was filming on location, it took more than an hour to set up the lighting and radio.

Director Xu learned from the previous lessons and finished shooting the scenes of Zhou Yanqing, Yan Sheng, Wang Jinsheng, Fang Ruoti and several other actors.It was not until the end that the filming of Tao Mu and Shen Yu's rivalry started.

After the police and the Flying Tigers entered the dock, Yan Yu frantically searched for Zhou Yuanting, and finally found Zhou Yuanting behind a container.The scene of the two confronting each other with guns.

"Ting!"

Zhou Yuanting turned his head and pointed his gun at Yan Yu.Tao Mu's movements were very standard, he raised his finger and pointed at Shen Yu's brow, his arm was straight and motionless, and his finger rested on the trigger.

Shen Yu did the same thing with him.It's just that Shen Yu's physical fitness is not good enough.He was holding a gun in both hands, and his arms were still dangling.Subconsciously, his shoulders are still a little hunched, and his posture is very bad.The most important thing is, I don't know if it's because of nervousness or other reasons, Shen Yu's finger is also hooked into the trigger.

Tao Mu noticed this scene and frowned unconsciously.

"Cut!" Director Xu stuck out his head from behind the monitor and asked Tao Mu, "What's wrong?"

"The posture is wrong." Tao Mu took advantage of the situation with a gun.The action is crisp and neat, which makes people's eyes shine.Ya is definitely used to being handsome on the set.

"You have to stick your index finger straight next to the trigger guard, and keep the muzzle pointed down. Because in the script setting, Yan Yu didn't want to kill Zhou Yuanting." When they were training in the police academy, the instructor repeatedly asked They, never put their fingers in the trigger guard before firing the gun.

Since Yan Yu didn't want to shoot Zhou Yuanting, and he was a regular policeman, he naturally wouldn't make such a mistake.

Don't think that small details don't matter. Tao Mu likes to use various details to reflect the character's heart when interpreting characters.Especially this kind of micro-movement.And the advantage of this small design is that it can also allow the audience to have a more intuitive understanding of the inner portrayal of the characters when watching the movie.The most important thing is that it has nothing to do with the actor's acting skills - it doesn't test the acting skills, it just needs to experience the characters with heart.To some extent, it is a particularly flattering little thought.

If the acting skills are not enough, you can use such small details to make up for it.Try to avoid close-ups of faces.

When Tao Mu got the script and designed the biography of Zhou Yuanting, he proposed to use fighting skills to reflect the inner level of the character.Director Xu was greatly inspired.But at that time, Tao Mu was trying to make Zhou Yuanting's character more profound and three-dimensional.

Now Tao Mu is designing moves for Shen Yu.Although there is some suspicion of overreaching, everyone knows that Tao Mu really dislikes Shen Yu's poor acting skills and dragging down the crew.This kind of proposal is definitely to take advantage of strengths and avoid weaknesses.

Shen Yu's expression was embarrassing, and she couldn't help but argue: "But this scene is going to be a pier shootout. If I don't hook my finger into it, doesn't it fit the background?"

Tao Mu stopped talking.It is suggested that he is given out.Whether Shen Yu would listen or not was his own problem.

Seeing that Tao Mu ignored her, Shen Yu couldn't help being a little embarrassed.He asked eagerly, "Are you angry? Because I didn't listen to your advice? I just think that my thoughts make sense."

Director Xu frowned and played back the scene just now twice.Focusing on the close-up of Shen Yu's face, she pondered for a moment and said, "Shen Yu followed what Tao Mu said."

Obviously, instead of taking a close-up of Shen Yu's face, he would rather clap his hands.At least it can vividly express Yan Yu's state of mind at the moment.

In one shot, two hands with guns face each other.One with the trigger on, one without.The visual conflict and the inner conflict of the characters come out.

Shen Yu pursed her lips, a little unwilling.Recently, he has indeed rehearsed well.Playing against each other until late at night every night, I feel that I have made great progress.However, the director and the rest of the crew still prefer to believe Tao Mu.

Even Brother Yan told him over and over again that he should not think too much when filming the last scene, and just follow Tao Mu when he was in the scene.

Even if it was for the camera effect, Tao Mu would not ignore him.

Shen Yu was still worried that Tao Mu would not take him with him when he was filming, and was always on tenterhooks.I am afraid that I will not perform well.But now that Tao Mu really took him, Shen Yu was a little bit unwilling.He thought of the wildly circulated rumors in the crew that Tao Mu would especially bring people into the play.I always worry that if I perform well in this scene, others will put all the credit on Tao Mu, thus obliterating his own efforts.

Shen Yu pursed her lips, inexplicably feeling a little aggrieved.

But on the opposite side, Tao Mu was taken care of him.He adjusted his emotions on his own, waited for the director to shout "a", and immediately pointed his gun at him.

Because of a trace of hesitation and dissatisfaction in his heart, Shen Yu's movements were half a beat slower than Tao Mu's.Put it on the monitor, it is muddy and sloppy visible to the naked eye.

"Cut!" Director Xu yelled unhappily, not understanding what kind of trouble Shen Yu made.

"Concentrate on filming." Director Xu reminded, and did it again.

This time Shen Yu did not have any problems.However, his movements were limp, and when he raised the gun, the range was too large, and after rising, he adjusted the angle before pointing to the center of Tao Mu's eyebrows.The arm still shakes slightly.Because the sun was too hot, he blinked subconsciously.

Compared with the opposite Tao Muping's straight and resolute movement of raising the gun in one step, it is obviously far behind.It can only set off that Zhou Yuanting is from the police academy.

Director Xu frowned, perfectionism broke out again.

Next, Tao Twilight stayed with Shen Yu for more than half an hour with the act of raising the gun.Fortunately, when Tao Mu was training in the police academy, he was very tough.When practicing raising the gun, he was like the best student police, hanging a brick from the muzzle.So even after half an hour passed, Tao Mu's gun raising action was still standard.

But Shen Yu couldn't do it.Already wobbly.The range is particularly large.

Director Xu could only call "cut" and let everyone rest for 10 minutes.

The makeup artist immediately stepped forward to touch up Tao Mu's makeup.Hot weather, scorching sun.Although Tao Mu's movements were standard, his makeup was also messed up.

Director Xu looked at Shen Yu whose arms were already sore and trembling slightly, and complained to the martial arts teacher sitting beside him with regret: "Why didn't I agree with Shen Yu's use of a double at the beginning!"

It's just a hard time with myself and the crew.

Teacher Wuzhi sat on the ponytail and laughed.He leaned into Director Xu's ear and whispered a few words.

After 10 minute, shooting continued.

This time, Director Xu was particularly cunning and asked the photographer to find the right angle, and directly clapped his hands for a close-up. He also asked the prop master to hang Shen Yu on the wire for a posing shot.This shot is finally over.And it was quite successful.

Director Xu happily shouted "Okay", resolutely refused to shout "one more", but tilted his head out of the monitor, and said to Tao Mu: "Come on, Ting Zi, the next one is yours." Playful time."

"Don't be polite to me!"
