Chapter 19: Playing Characters and Playing Yourself
After the first part was finished, it was already afternoon. The crew prepared a simple lunch box for everyone. After eating it in a hurry, there was no time to rest. Everyone hurriedly moved to the next shooting venue.
In fact, the shooting of TV and movies is not coherent, unlike many people who imagine that it is filmed one episode after another.
Instead, they are separated, one shot and one clip. Finally, they are edited together to form a complete work.
For example, this time, the crew was going to shoot a drama in the downtown area, which was about a group of people who went to another place to do business, but were cheated by someone using a few boxes of bricks as goods. The few people had no money in their pockets, and the outstanding performance of Liu La, and Wen Zhang, wandering in the lively market with confusion.
Because there is a temple fair in the county town today, the street market is very lively and meets the shooting conditions. Therefore, before the scene I was cheated on started shooting, I jumped directly to the scene where Feng Kuzi and Zhuoyue went shopping.
The crew had already greeted the market management department in advance. The other party was so angry that they didn't charge any money. They just separated such a piece of land on the corner of the street, specifically for shooting this scene for the crew.
Because they are far away from the capital and cannot hire extras, today's extras are played by staff members in the crew and market managers. These people have watched a lot of TV series, but filming is really the first time a big girl is in the sedan chair. Facing the camera and the people around them watching the excitement, they seem very excited.
The extras were in place and the camera was set up, with the sound of "321action", the shooting officially began.
Liu La and Wen Zhang, who had already changed into costumes, walked side by side in the market.
When filming this scene, you can't wear the previous olive green military uniform, but instead change it to a big flower shirt. According to the story, they should have been cheated in Guangzhou. Obviously, the flower shirt and shorts are more in line with the dressing style of Yangcheng back then.
Of course, just like the previous drama in Sijiucheng was not filmed in Sijiucheng. This drama in Yangcheng would not be filmed in Yangcheng.
Not only because the crew wants to save money, but the main reason is that big cities are changing with each passing day. A city will become different three months ago and three months later, not to mention thirty years ago.
Nowadays, Yangcheng is worth every inch of land, so how can there be such a random stall? Unless the Shangxiajiu Pedestrian Street is demolished...
"I just said I won't come. You have to come, you have to come. Is it because I'm going to play with someone? Just that Li Bailing, I knew she was not a good thing at first glance."
At the beginning of the content, Feng Kuzi, played by Liu La, complained about the excellence of Wen Zhang.
Zhuoyue showed impatient appearance and glared at him: "Why are you so ink-like? You're endless? Who told you to come? Didn't you come with me?"
The two happened to pass by the stall selling roasted goods. When the person was not paying attention, Feng Kuzi grabbed a handful of melon seeds. "Hey, why are you talking? If you hadn't sold my motorcycle secretly, I could have followed you all the way to such a capitalist place!"
Zhuoyue made him so annoyed that he spread his hands: "I sold it? No! Gao Yang sold it. Whoever sells it, you can go to whom? Then my grandson is so upset with Tianer and Li Bailing now. How rich are you, let me compensate you, why are you following me?"
"We have a good relationship, I won't follow you, whoever I will follow." Feng Kuzi seemed to be unable to see that he was disgusted with him. He continued to follow Zhuoyue, and even handed the melon seeds in his hand to Zhuoyue.
"Your uncle!" Zhuoyue took Guazier, rolled his eyes, and walked forward quickly without caring about him.
"Hey, wait for me." Feng Kuzi hurriedly followed, for fear that Zhuoyue would throw him down.
After the performance, the two actors had already walked out of the camera and stopped. At the same time, Ye Jing's voice also came from the side. "Card, the first one passed."
This scene is divided into three parts to shoot, and the first part just now is completed.
Now it is the hottest summer, and the weather is the hottest. After the filming of this scene, the two hurriedly hid in the shade, and the crew also hurriedly brought cool towels and iced drinks. The makeup artist also came over to make up the makeup for the two of them. The sweat just now had already made the foundation.
"Okay, it's pretty good. Xiao Wen'er's acting is really good. But you'd better let go of the lazi, you're a little bored now." After replaying the content I've just shot, Ye Jing walked over to the two and said.
Seeing his sweaty look, Liu La hurriedly threw a bottle of iced black tea for him, and said, "As soon as, Director Ye, I understand. Then the part we took just now?"
Ye Jing took the drink, squatted beside them, and after he fucked half a bottle, he let out a deep breath: "Huh... it's so good."
After looking at the two of them, Ye Jing smiled and said, "Don't be nervous, that part of the scene just now is like this. I won't let you two reshoot it. It's already very good. To be honest, the two of you acted well beyond my expectations, but I always think you can actually do better. Come on, young people!"
After saying that, Ye Jing raised his neck and gave him a sip of the remaining half bottle of black tea. It was so hot that the director didn't bother to play with any posture...
Liu La quite agrees with Ye Jing's evaluation of his and Wen Zhang's acting skills.
Putting aside the negative news, Wen Zhang's acting skills are actually quite good. There are two types of good actors, one is called acting roles and the other is called acting himself.
People who play roles need more skills in their acting skills and more investment in their emotions. People who play themselves need some innate talents.
Obviously, Wen Zhang is an actor who plays himself. You can say that his acting skills are not good enough and his emotions are not deep enough, but it is hard for you to say that he is not good at acting.
I have to admit that playing every role is similar and it can make the audience feel very interesting. This is also a great skill. God will give you food.
If you think that playing your own actor is not as good as a character, then what about Ge You? Uncle Ge is just a person who plays himself by relying on his talent.
With such a tragic role in "The Orphan of Zhao", Mr. Ge can play such a tragic role as If You Are the One. Can we say that his acting skills are good? It's so bad.
But even if the acting skills are not good enough, how many people in China don’t like the characters played by Mr. Ge? They just like them the same thing, and they have to praise them: “Awesome-porn.”
In addition to Mr. Ge, similar actors are Zhao Benshan. Teacher Zhao has been creating the same role for decades, but who dares to say that you are not happy to watch his show?
...
Compared with Wen Zhang who was able to play himself well, Liu La seemed much inferior. After all, he only studied performance for two years in his previous life, and traveled through time due to an accident.
After traveling through time, Liu La followed Guo Dagang and learned singing and singing on stage. Although it is collectively called performance, stage performance and TV performance are two completely different worlds, two concepts.
The reason why Ye Jing thinks that Liu La is good at acting is because Liu La is consuming the knowledge she learned in the past two years of her previous life. After all this knowledge and experience is consumed, Liu La will be revealed.
What Liu La has to do now is to urgently let itself learn, absorb, accommodate, and everything related to performance. After all, only a real giant will not break at once. Inflatable giants will sooner or later encounter cigarette butts...
Sorry, this chapter has a little less word count. I drank too much last night. Today, when I got up, my eyes were swollen and it hurts when I saw the light.
I thought it would be better in a while, but I didn't expect that until the evening, my eyes couldn't recover. So, this chapter was written by me with sunglasses. Dear readers, please forgive me.
I'm going to take the poison...
Chapter completed!
