I'm a Director, I'm Not Bad Chapter 595

  One play for one morning.

   In the eyes of Xu Xin's friends, this was unexpected.

  The most important thing is that it hasn't passed yet.

   Xiwei's state is a bit difficult to pick up.

  But... it's actually quite normal.

  For the role of Huang Xiaoxian, her suitability lies in her temperament.

  The kind of heroism between the brows, as well as the advantages of his own character.

  It's appropriate to be suitable, she is not a regular graduate after all... Moreover, movies and TV dramas are still two different things.

  The cycle of TV series is longer. In this shooting rhythm, as long as the performance of the characters can guarantee the expression of various emotions in the script setting, and the emotions can be seen by the audience, then it is already qualified.

  The duration will be promoted by the plot, so that the audience will have a sense of substitution.

  So in terms of acting skills, unless you are in a scene that is about to "explode", the requirements in ordinary times are not particularly high.

   But the movies are different.

  In the movie, every frame where every character appears must meet the director's requirements.

  This is also one of the reasons why when a film director makes a TV series, the progress is always slower than that of the TV series director, and the budget is always higher than that of the TV series director.

  Whether it is an actor or a director, in terms of the two sectors of film and TV drama, although they are the same, there is a clear line.

  As a work of art that compresses a story into more than one hour and tells it clearly, but also makes the audience empathize, it pursues extraordinary delicacy and fineness.

   Don't be sloppy at all.

  Is Xiwei suitable for Huang Xiaoxian?

Very suitable.

   But too rough.

   In the first shot of this one shot to the end, the route was unfamiliar at first, and she was making mistakes.

  But while adapting to the route, her acting skills began to enter a weak state.

   It's like a person turning around after catching water, Huang Xiaoxian saw the beautiful appearance of the little wild cat CICI, she needs to express several emotions at the same time.

  The first is the discomfort of stiff neck.

   The second is the observation after turning around.

  Then this observation is transformed into an emotion of keeping a respectful distance. And in this level of emotion, you have to move from being respectful and far away to gradually advancing to the expression of "I stay away from you" with a bit of disgust.

  Because the narration here will introduce the CICI night owl, what she is a nightclub expert and so on.

  Give the audience a sense of déjà vu that "the little wild cat is not serious".

  Finally, he took a detour, and at the same time took on a slightly stooped look that lowered his sense of existence.

   These are the things that Xu Xin analyzed for Xi Wei.

  But to Xie Wei, it sounded like a heavenly book.

   The same cannot be said.

   It should be... At first, she sounded like a bible.

  But following Xu Xin's analysis, after she understood this complete process of changing the character's mentality, the first reaction in her mind was...

   "What did I take pictures of before?"

  And what he said, from the perspective of other actors who cooperated with Xie Wei, including Wen Zhang, his first reaction was a bit exaggerated.

  But looking at the people around the production team who are all accustomed to it, the big guys are a little unconsciously nervous.

   Is this the strength of Director Xu?

  With this pressure, not only Xi Wei, but also everyone else is trying to show their best side.

   But the shooting of the first scene was not very smooth.

   Although Xiwei has obtained a complete process of changing the character's mentality from Xu Xin, it will take time to digest and simulate this mentality.

  Even though Director Xu showed her extraordinary patience, even if he didn't pass a scene all morning, he didn't say anything. But as an actor, because you are alone, the high pressure of working in vain all morning is on your back, and no one feels comfortable.

  So, when eating in the cafeteria at noon, Xi Wei simply filled a bowl of soup.

   Didn't sit with anyone, but sat at the table by himself, frowning with the script.

   Seeing this, everyone doesn't bother.

  The crew hoped that she would perform perfectly in the afternoon, so she could just live. And today's actors who are playing are also silently maintaining their state, for fear that they will become Director Xu's "thorn in the eye" in the afternoon.

  But Tang Yan felt less pressure today.

  Li Ke's scenes were all filmed in Yanjing, and she has no role here.

  So, she's just observing, thinking, borrowing, adjusting.

  She admitted that Seventh Brother performed very well in the audition for the role of "Huang Xiaoxian".

   Or...she and Huang Xiaoxian are a natural fit.

  The potential masculine and unscrupulous temperament, both of them are similar.

  But as someone who just collaborated with her on "The Three Thousand Golds of the Xia Family" in June, Tang Yan can be sure that his acting skills and Brother Seven's acting skills are on par.

   In other words, if Huang Xiaoxian is a sweet girl, then he should be the one who is worrying now, not Seventh Brother.

   This is called role fit.

  And the predicament Seventh Brother is encountering now may become his own predicament in the future.

   But fortunately for her, there is a lesson from Seventh Brother.

  So, she watched it more seriously than anyone else, and at the same time gradually understood Xu Xin's directorial style.

   What he pursues is rationality.

   The rationality of the mentality of the characters.

   This reminded her of a sentence the acting teacher said before:

  "The best acting skills are the expression of true feelings. And true feelings must be established in the performance of natural advancement."

   She didn't take this sentence seriously before, but after seeing Brother Seven's experience, she suddenly understood.

  After understanding it, from the perspective of a bystander, she unconsciously pondered... how to express Xu Xin's desired emotions.

   Not to mention, she really found some inspiration.

   After thinking for a while, she walked over to Xi Wei, who was looking down at the script:

   "Seventh brother."

   "Ah... what's wrong?"

   Xiwei raised her head and found that it was Tang Yan, the irritability in her eyes faded slightly.

   "Isn't Huang Xiaoxian's character in a stiff neck?"

  Hearing this, Xie Wei was taken aback for a moment, then nodded subconsciously:

   "Yes. What's wrong?"

"No... I suddenly thought of one thing. It was Qiu Ze who got up angry, and he also had a stiff neck a few days ago. We quarreled all day that day. He likes to lose his temper when he can't sleep well, and with stiff neck, The whole mood that day was pretty grumpy.

  I think... you have always maintained the appearance of a stiff neck, and then Director Xu kept saying that your emotions are not in place?

  You can act uncomfortable.

  Uncomfortable, impatient, too lazy to greet and perfunctory, so come here at a respectful distance...

  Because in the script, isn't it after Huang Xiaoxian broke up with Lu Ran that under the influence of Wang Xiaojian, she slowly accepts those colleagues who are weird in her eyes?

  I think when a person is suffering, and when you just lost a relationship, it is the most uncomfortable and irritable time. At this time, you can be more... self-willed, will it be better? "

"Well…"

  A train of thought from a bystander suddenly made Xi Wei fall into deep thought.

  Neck stiff neck uncomfortable?

   Grumpy?

   Impatient?

  I took this emotion all the way to introduce my colleagues in the company, and finally returned to my seat in a daze...

   It sounds pretty good.

  She thought for a while, then nodded:

   "It seems to be possible, but it seems to be different from what Director Xu said."

   "Well, because Director Xu wants a relatively complete mental journey, right? Based on the discomfort of a stiff neck..."

  The two chatted for about five or six minutes, and during these five or six minutes, some people had finished eating one after another and left the cafeteria.

  The filming time of the crew is 1:30.

  Under Tang Yan's reminder, Xi Wei, who seemed to think that the idea was feasible, simply pushed the plate in front of her and began to think quietly.

   Seeing this, Tang Yan didn't say anything, and left silently.

   and…

  She also felt quite fresh in her heart.

  She is not from a major, so she rarely has the experience of discussing acting skills with others.

   It's like a person who doesn't have particularly good grades in the class, suddenly understands a math problem, and gives the idea of ​​solving the problem to the "best" student in the class.

   Inexplicably, she likes this feeling very much.

  Although her academic performance is still mediocre, at least in this class, her energy has never been more focused, and her mind has never been so clear.

   This taste is really good.

   And at 1:30 in the afternoon, when the crew was re-arranged and ready to start filming, Xi Wei's performance was indeed different from that in the morning.

"start."

  When Xu Xin's voice sounded, and after the record was played, she tilted her head slightly, her neck showing an awkward look, and walked forward step by step.

  In the beginning, Xu Xin was just watching the route she took because of the view from her back.

   Several places in this play that need to show acting skills are all on the face of Huang Xiaoxian, who is shot to the end.

  First of all, we must ensure that the wiring is correct, and then...it depends on Xi Wei's performance.

   Soon, Huang Xiaoxian passed by Guangdong Boy who was paddling for fish, and came to his work station.

  With the help of the camera stabilizer, Wang Lei skillfully circled around her, and the screen turned to the front, aiming at her face.

  A girl with straight bangs, dark circles, and a slightly tilted head appeared on the screen of the monitor.

  Xu Xin raised his eyebrows.

  At this moment, Xi Wei in the monitor tilted her head, and she was using the awkward posture that would only appear in a stiff neck. Just the movement of holding the water glass was full of discomfort and discomfort.

   Just in line with the uncomfortable feeling of stiff neck.

   Not bad, this expression is much more lively than in the morning.

  He nodded slightly, and then in Wang Lei's camera, she tilted her head and continued walking, and soon came to the graphic designer Xiao Ke.

   Xiwei's head is tilted to the left, while Xiao Ke's desk is on her right.

   This caused her to tilt her head and the whole thing looked awkward.

But this kind of weird and awkward body language is very attractive... You can clearly feel that she is awkward, but there will be no drama or jumping thinking. sense of sight.

   And at the moment when her eyes were looking to the right, Wang Lei's camera flowed smoothly and landed on Xiao Ke who was logged into the Weibo interface.

   Then, Xi Wei quickly overtook him.

  The camera stayed on Xiao Ke's back for more than a second, then turned around again...

   found Xi Wei directly.

  But Xu Xin frowned.

   But he didn't stop.

  Because there is no problem with this scene, there is a place in his mind that can be modified.

  The processing here can be smoother and more vivid.

  So, Huang Xiaoxian received the water and the camera was fixed.

   After she received the water, she straightened up.

  The first point where acting needs to be expressed appears.

  He narrowed his eyes, wanting to see how the other party would deal with it.

   After pouring the water and straightening up, Xi Wei was about to take a step when she suddenly stopped.

  The Little Wild Cat actor Ye Qianyun, who received a prompt from the crew over there, appeared on the opposite side of the corridor with enchanting steps, wearing a miniskirt and high heels, with big waves and beautiful branches.

  Wang Lei's fixed camera finished the close-up of Ye Qianyun's appearance, and then rotated silkily again.

  Huang Xiaoxian, played by Xiwei, still tilts her head, but her left eye is narrowed, forming a "big and small eye" appearance.

   It looked like she was saying "Why are you dressed like this?", "I can't stand it", and then she looked around, turned her head and walked to the left.

  But because her neck is stiff on the left side, so twisting to the left, all the expressions on her face were replaced by pain.

  Unconsciously holding his neck, he walked towards the front desk of the company on the left—the kind girl played by Li Man.

   "Ha~"

  Suddenly, Xu Xin chuckled.

very smart.

  In my own understanding, Huang Xiaoxian's complete mental journey for the performance of the little wild cat is: Encounter—annoyed—keep a respectful distance—do not want any entanglement—dodge away.

   On Xie Wei's side, many of these emotions were omitted.

  She put all the three emotions of "encounter, boredom, and not wanting to have any entanglement" into the "disgusted" expression of big and small eyes.

   Then follow this disgust and take a logical detour.

   Compared with what she wanted, she dealt with it more flatly.

but…

   Unexpectedly very pleasing.

  Especially the disgusted expression of big and small eyes.

  Emotion is quite in place.

  He accepts and approves of this performance.

  And... I feel that the other party's handling seems to be better than my own version.

  The requirements of my version are a bit high, and it might be good if I can express it... But at this moment, Xie Wei's appearance, coupled with her own appearance, is more suitable for this kind of free and easy performance.

very nice.

  Thinking of this, he turned his head and glanced at Tang Yan while the camera was following her.

  After he finished his meal at noon, he saw Tang Yan and her whispering there.

   And at this moment Xie Wei's style suddenly changed...

   Is it because of her?

  Xu Xin became interested.

  Finally, the camera freezes after Huang Xiaoxian sat down at his desk again.

   This is the whole process of the first act.

  The next scene will be Huang Xiaoxian's rivalry with Wen Zhang at the workstation.

  Wang Lei finished the first shot, and then fixed the frame on Xi Wei's face.

   Xi Wei did not dare to move, and waited for news from Xu Xin with her ears pricked up.

  Director... OK, or not, you can tell me something.

   And just then...

   "Xi Wei, Lei Ge, Xiao Ye, come here."

  Xu Xin in front of the monitor spoke.

   Xi Wei's mouth twitched...

  In an instant, it is as if the airtight core has been pulled out by someone, and the person will be "deflated" immediately.

  This...isn't it?

  Ye Qianyun, on the other hand, was a little trembling, for fear that she would also make a mistake.

  The two quickly followed Wang Lei to Xu Xin.

   Just when Xi Wei was thinking about whether she should apologize, she heard Xu Xin say:

   "Brother Lei, you can change the part about Huang Xiaoxian and CICI."

   "Well, how to change?"

   "You are human."

  Wang Lei's mouth twitched...

  He said in his heart that I was not a human just now?

  But looking at the corner of Xu Xin's wicked mouth, he said directly:

   "I'm no longer a human being!"

   "Haha~!"

  Xu Xin smiled and nodded:

"It's like this. In this paragraph, I want your camera to be more lively. You treat the camera like... a new employee. After a while, Xiaoye, your steps should be more enchanting. It can be slightly exaggerated, but it must be enchanting. .”

   These sisters are the image spokespersons of Miss Asia in 2005.

  Whether it is a typhoon or temperament, it is one-to-one.

   It's just that her acting skills are a little weaker, but her biggest feature is her hot and **** body.

   Moreover, she is actually one year older than Xu Xin.

  But Xiaoye Xu Xin shouted very naturally.

  Ye Qianyun nodded quickly after hearing it:

"OK."

   "Well, you have to pay attention to the camera for a while, Lei Ge, when you are in the original Huang Xiaoxian staring at CICI for a while, this is a turn. Then you have to add another one."

  Wang Lei was taken aback for a moment:

   "Add once?"

   "Yes. It's the first time Huang Xiaoxian has finished watching. Normally, isn't she walking towards Li Man? Xiwei, after you take a step, stop once."

"Well…"

   Xi Wei nodded subconsciously, but her heart was full of bewilderment.

   Didn't understand what Xu Xin meant.

"Brother Lei, when you see Huang Xiaoxian walking towards Li Man, you turn the camera back. Turn to Xiaoye. Xiaoye, after you finish walking on the catwalk, come to your work station...you must have that kind of...that kind of... very hooked People's movements, do you understand what I mean? It's the way a beautiful woman pulls her hair before she sits down, or takes off her clothes...Anyway, you have to have this movement, and then Lei Ge, you give Xiaoye a close-up. The requirement is that the close-up has just been done When it is given, turn around and return to Huang Xiaoxian again."

   As he spoke, he picked up the lines book and pointed somewhere:

"Xiwei, this is your introduction line to introduce CICI as a night owl. When dubbing, you have to treat the camera as a colleague, or a male colleague. After introducing the little wild cat, maintain the performance just now. After a few steps, There will be a narration here, which roughly means: Hey hey, it's okay, don't read it. Then...everything will be business as usual..."

   After explaining to Xi Wei, he looked at Wang Lei again:

   "You see what I mean?"

  Wang Lei nodded:

   "Understood, be more playful, and impress the audience through the picture."

   "That's right, let this take one shot to the end, and give the audience a sense of immersion that they are the camera, and they are introduced by Huang Xiaoxian. And the beautiful scenery here is Xiaoye."

   "Okay, no problem. Just listening to it is not bad~"

  Wang Lei said with a smile.

   Indeed, after such a shot to the end, I feel that the overall picture is more vivid.

  Xu Xin also nodded, and finally looked at Xi Wei:

   "This one performed very well, exceeding expectations. Keep this state, remember the adjustments I just said? Just follow this, come on."

"…Um!"

  When Xi Wei, who was still worrying about gain and loss just now, heard this compliment, she felt that a big stone in her heart had finally fallen to the ground.

   After a heavy reply, he unconsciously turned his head to look at Tang Yan next to him.

   Tang Yan was also looking at her.

Then…

   Xiwei showed her bright white teeth.

  Old Tang~ Awesome!

   Tang Yan smiled slightly as a response.

   After taking into account the small interactions between the two of them, Xu Xin understood... It turns out that this change in Xiwei was really caused by Tang Yan?

   Hey, okay.

  It's just...how can she act so hippie when she has this ability?

  But no matter what, Tang Yan sees it this way... quite interesting.

   And the next thing is simple.

   Xiwei found a performance level that met Xu Xin's requirements, cooperated with Wang Lei and Ye Qianyun for a total of three, and completely identified the route.

  Article 4, one shot to the end, from the beginning to the end sitting at the station, go through it all at once.

  Xu Xin also finally shouted the words "OK, pass."

  Wen Zhang cheered up quickly.

  The next one is his.

   But in the final analysis, his acting skills and feeling in front of the camera are better than Xie Wei.

  Adding that there are no special requirements for this scene, and after the two have contributed qualified scores from lines to acting skills to shooting techniques, the second act passed easily.

  Finally, after five o'clock in the afternoon, the crew ended the first day of shooting.

  A total of 7 shots were taken, which should be calculated according to the duration, which means less than five minutes.

  The progress of this first day was actually not very smooth.

  But Xu Xin is quite satisfied.

  Everything is difficult at the beginning.

  He can feel that Xie Wei's state is getting better and better every time, so there is no problem.

  Urban drama, not so many stunts, everything is done step by step.

  One month... It's over anyway.

   And while he was busy working on "33 Days"...

  Yanjing, Yizhuang.

  Xinsheng Art Training School.

   "Momo, are you looking for me?"

  Looking at Fu Lulu who pushed the door in, Zhang Mo smiled and nodded:

   "Sister Fu, come in quickly."

   Fu Lulu, one of the assistant directors of "Jinling".

   In other words, she is one of Zhang Yimou's assistant directors from “House of Daggers” except “Golden Armor”.

   At the same time, he is also the only person Zhang Mo can trust in this crew.

   Born in 1981, he is only 29 years old this year.

  But since 2004, she has already served as the assistant director in "House of Flying Daggers".

   And that year, she was only 23 years old.

  As for why Zhang Mo trusts her so much, the reason is also very simple.

  She and Aunt Ting are classmates, roommates, and best friends for many years.

   Logically, I should call the existence of "aunt".

  Auntie Ting and her, both of them are students of the 98th grade of Beijing Film Academy.

  When Aunt Ting was in school, the relationship between the two was inseparable. And like Xu Xin, she was one of the few people who knew about the relationship between her father and Aunt Ting.

  Aunt Ting had just fallen in love with her father, and she knew it.

   After Aunt Ting dropped out of school, she never told anyone about Aunt Ting.

   Tight-lipped.

   Didn't even take the initiative to contact Aunt Ting.

   After all, she graduated as an actor, and when she needs a chance, she only needs to talk to Aunt Ting, and her father will consider all aspects, and will ensure that her star chart is open all the way.

   Unfortunately, she didn't.

  I have been in the film and television industry for nearly two years. Later, my younger brother Yiding was born. Aunt Ting invited her to a small full moon wine held within her family. After learning about her best friend's recent situation, she mentioned it to her father.

  Father directly brought her by his side and became an assistant director.

   I have been working hard for so many years.

   Except for "Golden Armor", she was afraid that Gong Li, Zhang Weiping, and her father would not be able to make a good balance, so she didn't take the post of assistant director, and she was present in several other films.

   Zhang Mo was also the most suitable candidate after a day of hard thinking.

  So, when Fu Lulu closed the door and asked, "What can I do for you?", she got straight to the point:

   "Sister Fu, I have something... I want your help!"
