?”
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Well..."
Liu Yifei thought for a moment and said:
"Ng Meng. Uncle Tat. In his collaboration with Star Master, the character "Third Uncle" has such a lewd look..."
"Squinting eyes, smiling cheekily, and exuding a vulgar temperament?"
"Yes, that's it."
"So, do you think the cognitive images in your mind like Brother Crow and Uncle Da are due to their acting skills? Or is it the image and temperament they dress up that is more popular among people?"
"Well……"
At this time, the playful look in Liu Yifei's eyes gradually faded and turned into a kind of thinking.
After a moment, she asked:
"But why do I feel that they are more like label acting skills introduced by the director through his works?"
"That's right. Tag."
Although there is no blackboard, it is quite easy to remember the key points in this kind of one-on-one teaching.
Xu Xin nodded:
"It's labeling. Let's take Xiangjiang as an example. Throughout film history, you can always find that in different dramas, there are a group of actors who can leave a fixed impression on the audience. For example, Brother Crow, when you see this person, he is really
I can't think of any good guy he can play... Even if he is an undercover policeman in "Infernal Affairs", you will still think he is a villain until the end.
For example, Uncle Da, when you see him, you can imagine that he must be the kind of humorous and witty character.
For another example...if I talk about a person, who will come to mind? Qin Pei."
A somewhat unfamiliar name came out of his mouth.
After Liu Yifei was stunned for a moment...suddenly several images popped into her mind.
Let her blurt out:
"Hypocrite, insidious villain? This person is the villain in the movies "The Legend of Inspector Lei Luo" and "The Gambler", right? That middle-aged man, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, with a side parting?
"
"Yes, that's him."
Xu Xin nodded slightly:
"You see, it actually has nothing to do with acting skills. As long as they appear on the stage, you can almost 100% determine what type of role they are playing. For this kind of actors, you only need to arrange them into roles that suit them.
Even if you don't act very hard, you can still win with your temperament. This is what I call actors who rely on their image and temperament. It's not just them, you are like this too."
"Well……"
After Liu Yifei digested what Xu Xin meant, she was momentarily speechless:
"What do you mean? You mean that I still rely on selling my face?... Hey, you are looking down on others."
"of course not."
Xu Xin shook his head in denial and explained:
"On the contrary, there is nothing wrong with this approach. To put it bluntly, the acting skills of these people... Take Uncle Da for example. His acting skills have transcended the level of acting. They have evolved into a kind of personality. This kind of
As long as the personality label is attached to the body... let's define Uncle Da's wretched temperament for the time being.
[Vulgar] is a kind of label. Within the scope of the label, any character with this label symbol can be integrated into everything. It can be said that he has achieved the ultimate in a label.
And he is not the only one walking this road. Look at Brother Qi. The kind of manly woman he is walking on now, with a fierce temperament, is also a label. I have talked to her many times, and she doesn’t have any right now.
That kind of... I have had enough of roles with this kind of label, and I want to change the track. Do you think she is going the right way or the wrong way?"
"..."
Liu Yifei naturally understood.
It doesn’t matter if it’s Seventh Brother or Uncle Da.
This is not the core meaning of his rhetorical question.
But "label".
So, she didn't answer.
And Xu Xin didn't need her to answer:
"Let's talk about you again. Since you debuted, the labeling has been very obvious. [Pure], [Pure], [Clean]... Looking at the entire post-85 generation, who is more pure than you? Who can compare with you?"
"But the disadvantages of this kind of labeling are obvious."
Liu Yifei shook her head, looked at him rather unconvinced and said seriously:
"Even if I don't know myself well enough, let's not talk about myself. What about Mimi? When Mimi debuted, didn't she follow a youthful and sweet style? According to you, this is also a label for her, right?"
"Of course."
"But now she has made the switch very successfully."
"Don't be impatient, just listen to what I have to say."
After signaling her not to refute in a hurry, Xu Xin continued:
"It is right to label acting skills. When you do something to the extreme, you will naturally be the best. Just like Qi Ge, I think she has a concept that is actually very good. She said to me: Director Xu, I
I feel that I can interpret an image so deeply that people will think of me when they see this type of character... I think it is a great thing. These are her original words.
And what I want to express is also very simple. What do you compare to actors with such labels? To put it bluntly, it is an arsenal. Whoever has more labels will be stronger. Uncle Da’s nonsensical labels can be matched
The label of being obscene and hypocrite on Qin Pei can be supplemented by being cruel and ruthless. The audience can accept Brother Crow's gangster temperament no matter how excessive he does.
These labels are actually an actor's arsenal. The larger the caliber of the cannon, the more lethal it is. The more actors with labels, the more profound their acting skills will naturally be. Because these labels are also remembered by the audience through the actors' interpretation of the characters.
, can only be obtained. And this is the first type.”
"Is this the stage I'm in right now?"
"No, you are getting beyond this stage, just not enough yet."
This answer came out of Xu Xin's mouth, and it successfully made the black-skinned school beauty from Shibuya school, who started to listen carefully, reveal a look of surprise with a bit of joy:
"What do you mean?"
Faced with this question, Xu Xin just asked again:
"Since you took the Xiangjiang actor as an example, let me talk about another person... What do you think is good about Liang Chaowei's drama?"
"Eye!"
Fat Fairy almost did it without thinking.
Speaking of Liang Chaowei, why bother asking?
The title of the man who is known as the best at acting with his eyes is not made up out of thin air.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! But when faced with her answer, Xu Xin did not deny it, but just asked a strange question:
"Then why do you think he was able to achieve this with just a pair of eyes?"
"..."
This time, Liu Yifei couldn't answer.
Xu Xin was not surprised and just said:
"This is the second way I want to talk about, a performance method that relies on skills. Or to put it more bluntly, it relies on micro-expressions to express the level of acting skills. You see."
As he spoke, he pointed at the screen.
On the screen, the image of "The Grandmaster" is still fixed at 20 minutes and 55 seconds.
"Watch carefully."
Xu Xin clicked play directly.
Liu Yifei narrowed her eyes slightly.
As the picture played, under the profile shot of Yang Mi given by Wang Jiawei, a voice sounded:
"Your temper is just like when dad was young. He only focused on victory and defeat, and had no sense of the world."
"clatter."
Space tap.
The screen pauses.
"What did you see?"
he asked directly.
"..."
Liu Yifei was silent.
what did you see?
Saw nothing.
What can you see here?
So, Xu Xin backframed the image and continued:
To be continued...
