Chapter 303 An actor’s self-cultivation (2)
The site was laid out, and two torches in the prison were burning "sizzlingly", and the small space was filled with the smell of kerosene and mold.
"Each group is ready, the actors are in place!"
Django sat in front of the monitor and gave orders.
"First scene, first shot, action!"
Everything is ready and the shooting begins.
[Linghu Chong woke up in the cell, looked around, and used his palm force to test the hardness of the wall.]
Pei Jie was acting when suddenly a "click" sounded.
He sighed inwardly, the first shot of the first shot was NG, and he felt a bit unfavorable at the beginning.
It was Django who called to stop, but it was not because Pei Jie had a problem with his role, but because he lacked an important prop.
He snapped his fingers at Shi Changxin and said, "That thing!"
Shi Changxin jogged out of prison with a "oh" sound, and then came over with an iron cage after a moment.
"ah!"
...
Passing by several female staff members caused a scream.
There were more than a dozen mice in the iron cage, and of course, they were artificially raised pet mice.
This is not for play. First, the plot needs to be used, and second, this kind of thing should exist in this kind of prison.
Django took the iron cage, walked towards Pei Jie's cell, came to him, and asked, "Are you afraid of this thing?"
Pei Jie shook his head and said, "What's so scary about this?"
Django opened the door of the iron cage, took out five, and smiled and said, "Cultivate feelings with them and you will be able to listen to your orders in a while."
Pei Jie read the scripts and naturally knew what to do with them, and said casually: "Okay."
Django lifted the iron cage and walked to the cell opposite. Inside, Li Sheng was preparing, "Teacher Li, can you put a few small things in it?"
As he said that, he raised the iron cage slightly and then explained: "Don't worry, they are all pet rats rented from the pet store."
Li Sheng glanced at it and said happily: "No problem. I will hang it up later and let it go on my arms and body, so that it will be realistic."
After the operation, Django immediately returned to the monitor and started shooting the scene again.
[While the guards were delivering food and water, Linghu Chong saw through the small window in the prison door that seemed to be someone in the cell opposite. He showed joy on his face and shouted: "Girl, are you?"
Unexpectedly, the guard kicked the food away with his feet and scolded: "Bu Zhun speaks, and it will be delicious to eat!"
Linghu Chong remained silent, looked through the small window and saw a thin hand tied with iron chains in the light of the torch.
He lowered his eyes and thought, and happened to see the mouse eating the food that was knocked over the ground. He immediately had an idea in his mind. He immediately tore off a large piece of cloth from his clothes, half of which was used to write "I am Linghu Chong, who are you?" and half of which were torn into strips and tied into ropes.
He caught a mouse, tied the cloth piece and the rope, and then used the meat pieces in the meal to lure the mouse to the window of the cell opposite.]
"Click!"
Django called for a stop again. Actually, Pei Jie was acting pretty well. He saw that he had practiced privately, but the mouse did not cooperate at all and refused to walk opposite him.
what to do?
Change the mouse!
As a result, I tried it all, as if I had agreed, either I was still moving or I ran around.
Django remembers the original plot, but he has never studied whether the shooting was made of real or fake rats.
Shi Changxin, who was standing by, gave a suggestion: "Dr. Jiang, should you use fishing line to pull the bra over and then make a special effect mouse in the later stage?"
Django gave him a blank look and said, "Don't look at the camera for a few seconds. Special effects will cost a lot of money. Try it again. If it doesn't work, break down the camera."
Then, I did it again, and this time I used the mice's favorite rations to lure them, and finally succeeded.
This kind of detail-finding often occurs on the set, as small as the placement of props, the actor's eyes, the angle of the light, etc.
"Details determine success or failure" is also applicable to filming, because details are the essentials for reflecting the authenticity of the movie. In the language of the movie, details are divided into factual details and image details. Specifically, they include plot details, scene details, object details, audio details, color details, etc.
When the details are handled accurately and accurately, the value of the movie can be perfectly presented.
However, as the shooting deepened, some of Pei Jie's problems gradually emerged.
He performed well when he was about to have a one-man show, and he could basically pass it in just three or four.
But when it comes to acting in an opponent's scene, I still play myself and have no interaction.
"Click!"
This was the eleventh time in this scene that I stopped shouting. Django looked serious and was silent for a few seconds, saying, "Rest for ten minutes, Pei Jie, come here."
Pei Jie's heart skipped a beat, and he walked over tremblingly and said, "Dr. Jiang, I'm sorry."
"If you can make the movie well, I will apologize to you." Django retorted, and then relaxed his tone and said, "In the process of acting on the opponent, the most important thing is cooperation. If you take your own way of handling it, you will go against the opponent without feeling the feedback from others, then the plot will only make the audience unable to enter."
He was angry one more thing, but more because he was more sorry for his failure: "In the process of acting on the opponent's scene, what is most needed is to carefully understand the opponent's handling method. Only when your rhythm is unified can you play a role in this storyline and the relationship between the characters, and truly play this scene well."
After saying that, he added: "Remember, don't just focus on how to act on yourself."
Pei Jie nodded and said, "Dr. Jiang, I understand."
However.
One.
Another one.
Pei Jie was acting very attentively every time, and he also felt the other person as Django said, but the results were not satisfactory.
"It's broken the record, twenty."
"I've experienced the most NGs at the two times."
"Dr. Jiang is so strict and patient. If it were other directors, I'm afraid they'd already started scolding me."
"Isn't that true? I'll be frying."
"It's just a pain for Gu Yao, and he followed the performance over and over again."
"There's no way, I can't stop acting."
...
The crew started to talk in a low voice.
Django lost his temper and chose the actor he chose, he would continue crying.
Pei Jie's mood became increasingly depressed, his mind was very confused, and he was a little confused about how to take pictures.
Because he made all the changes and attempts he could make, he still received NG again and again.
However, Pei Jie did not lose confidence, but instead aroused his fighting spirit, continued to figure out how his opponent handled it, and constantly adjusted his own rhythm.
Gu Yao was fine. She didn't think there was any problem with a few more NGs, and she didn't resent Pei Jie's mistakes or Django's seriousness.
