Actor: I picked up attributes on the set

Chapter 204 "The God of Medicine" is in progress!

As Lin Yuan's voice fell, everyone on the set stopped what they were doing and turned their attention to Lin Yuan in unison.

This is the first scene of the start-up, and everyone has not yet entered the shooting state, so there will be some small mistakes during the process, which is understandable, but no one thought that the first NG would come so quickly.

It took less than [-] seconds from the scene record to the director calling the card, and the actors were not even given the camera. Isn't calling the card at this time a clear sign of "dismissal" for them?

Just when some crew members on the set were thinking this way, Lin Yuan got up from the monitor and walked up to the photographer who was in charge of close-up shots just now: "Teacher photography, don't rush to give your shots to the actors, First shoot from the environment in the store, then stop here for a second at the ashtray, and finally stand here to close-up the actors”

Lin Yuan compared his hand to a camera lens, and while talking, he demonstrated to the photographer how to use the push-pull mirror.

The opening screen of a movie is extremely important to the whole movie. The opening screen shows the tone of the whole movie. Through simple screen language, the audience can know the theme, type and tone of the movie. At the same time, through the environment and The conflict between the characters makes the character's image more distinct and prominent.

Hearing what Lin Yuan said, the photographer Zhou Tong immediately realized where his mistake was.

Photographer Zhou Tong directly admitted his mistake, and said apologetically, "I'm sorry Director Lin, I was too anxious to give the camera to Teacher Xu Zheng!"

Lin Yuan nodded, but didn't say anything.

This kind of problem is prone to occur in crews with big stars, just like when filming "Kung Fu Yoga" before, even though Lin Yuan is already a top star, once he and Jackie Chan appear at the same time, the camera will still be confused. Leaning towards Jackie Chan a little more.

It's okay to give the shots to these big stars, but Lin Yuan's purpose in making this movie is to tell the story of "The God of Medicine" well, not to use Xu Zheng's fame to make a wave of box office.

Even if he didn't have a single scene on the first day of starting up today, Lin Yuan would not lower his standards.

After telling the photographer what the problem is.

Lin Yuan went back to the monitor and sat down again, waiting for the various departments to return to their respective positions.

Ning Hao sat aside and looked at Lin Yuan with interest.

He and Xu Zheng have always been very reassured about Lin Yuan's acting skills, but they have to have doubts about his ability as a director, so the two of them will name the producer, because they think that when the filming is busy, Lin Yuan will be busy.

However, what he didn't expect was that as an actor, Lin Yuan's overall sense of the camera was no worse than that of ordinary directors. He hit the nail on the head and directly found the problem.

If it was him just now, he would also call the card, but he would not call it at the first time. Instead, he would point out the problem when the scene was halfway through, but this is all because of his filming. Talking from experience after many works, as Lin Yuan directs a film for the first time, he can not only find out the problem, but also point out the problem on the spot, which is already very valuable.

The second shooting continued, Lin Yuan stared at the monitor closely.

With the previous experience, the shooting this time obviously went much smoother, but the good times didn't last long, and problems appeared after a while.

"Ca! What happened to the lighting group?"

Lin Yuan frowned, and turned his gaze to the lighting team on the set: "It's broad daylight, why is your room so dark, is that written in the storyboard script?"

The people in the lighting team lowered their heads and complained softly.

The leader of the lighting team trotted up to Lin Yuan and explained: "Director Lin, didn't you say that the tone of this scene is relatively heavy, we want to dim the ambient light."

Lin Yuan didn't wait for him to finish, and reprimanded, "You just said what is written in the storyboard script? Did you ask you to dim the lights?"

A middle-aged man in his thirties was reprimanded by Lin Yuan, a young man in his early twenties, and he was still in his specialty. The lighting team leader's face suddenly looked a little ugly, even if he knew it was their lighting team. Mistake, the lights were not turned on as required in the storyboard script.

If it were another director, he would have admitted his mistake a long time ago, but it was Lin Yuan who said this. How could he be convinced by such a newcomer who had never directed before?

Seeing that the leader of the lighting team did not speak, Lin Yuan asked in a deep voice: "How important is lighting, don't I need to say? You are making the tone so heavy now. When the plot turns later, what will you use to reflect the protagonist Cheng Yong?" Inner struggle?"

The purpose of lighting is to create atmosphere and mood.

In addition, light has three functions, that is, to control contrast, color and brightness.

If a director wants to tell a story well, in addition to expressing clearly in the language of the picture, the lighting cannot be ignored.

For example, in youth love movies, low contrast, high brightness, and warm tones create a romantic and warm atmosphere. On the other hand, suspense movies need high contrast, low brightness, and cool tones to create a tense atmosphere even in daytime. .

This is enough to prove the importance of lighting in film shooting.

For a reality-based drama like "I'm Not the God of Medicine", the lighting requirements are naturally more stringent. The lighting must revolve around the protagonist Cheng Yong's mental journey. Lin Yuan has prepared a storyboard script for this in advance. , As a result, the lighting group is not used at all, how can this not make people feel angry?

After Lin Yuan finished speaking, Ning Hao also stood up at this time, out of emotion and reason, he would obviously stand by Lin Yuan's side.

"Old Wang, put away all your little cleverness, I have given you a script for shooting, just adjust the lighting according to the above honestly, don't delay everyone's shooting."

When Ning Hao said this, the leader of the lighting team felt ashamed, but he couldn't refute.

I had no choice but to obediently return to the lighting team, and ordered my subordinates to adjust the brightness of the lights according to the requirements of the shot script.

"Okay, keep shooting!"

"First scene, one shot, third time!"

"start!"

As Lin Yuan's voice fell, the staff of various departments on the set became busy again.

In the eyes of many crew members, Lin Yuan is the new official's three fires, and everyone is afraid that they will become Lin Yuan's next target.

Lin Yuan didn't bother to explain this, it was just right, most of the crew hadn't started filming yet, but under this atmosphere, they all became serious, and the filming progress was finally much smoother.

The camera switches back and forth during the conversation between Xu Zheng and a supporting actor, following up just right without any mistakes.

"Good! Over!"

On the first day of starting up, at 3:[-] in the afternoon, it took nearly two hours, and the first shot finally passed.

Just when the staff of the prop group were busy arranging the scene.

Xu Zheng came over with two bottles of mineral water, and handed Lin Yuan and Ning Hao a bottle each.

"How do you feel?" Seeing Lin Yuan's tired look, Xu Zheng couldn't help asking.

Lin Yuan unscrewed the bottle cap, waved his hand, and complained, "Don't talk about it, it's better to shoot a movie. Being a director has too many things to worry about, and it's a headache."

After hearing Lin Yuan's complaining words, Ning Hao and Xu Zheng burst into laughter.

Filming is like this. If the crew doesn't get in right at the beginning, and the various departments don't know the effect the director wants, it will take a little effort to shoot, but after a period of time, it will be much easier to shoot.

Professional directors like Ning Hao and Xu Zheng have their own team, just to avoid such things as needing a running-in period.

Lin Yuan looked at Ning Hao at the side, and said politely: "Director Ning, don't laugh, I have to go to battle in person later, and I have to trouble you to keep an eye on this monitor."

After all, this is a movie he directed and acted by himself. Although he is not playing the leading role, the role of "Lu Yiyi" also has a lot of roles in the movie. Lin Yuan does not intend to be like Huang Bo, wait until after a scene is filmed, and come back again. See how the shot works.

It is better to have a professional help to watch, so that if a problem is found, it can be corrected in time.

Otherwise, judging from the two-hour filming of this scene, I am afraid that it may not be possible to finish filming the movie "I am not the God of Medicine" in more than half a year.

"Okay, don't worry if you leave this matter to me." Ning Hao assured, patting his chest.

Originally, he was considered a relatively professional director, but now asking him to stare at a monitor, wouldn't it be easy?
While the three of them were chatting, the props team completed the rearrangement of the environment in the "Prince Indian Oil Shop".

Lin Yuan put the walkie-talkie on the apple box, went to the makeup studio and started to put on makeup.

In this scene, the neighbor knew that Cheng Yong was short of money, so he introduced a patient, Lu Yiyi, to Cheng Yong. At the same time, the neighbor also told Lu Yiyi that Cheng Yong was in the business of smuggling medicines, and that Lu Yiyi, who was suffering from leukemia, wanted to survive. He wanted Cheng Yong to help him smuggle a Glenin drug from India, and deliberately said that the price difference of the smuggled drug in China was nearly [-] times. He hoped that Cheng Yong would agree to himself in front of the attractive benefits.

The difference from the first scene is that the shots of the first scene are mainly focused on depicting the environment and creating a realistic atmosphere.

But the focus of this scene is on the lines of the two actors Lin Yuan and Xu Zheng.

And in order to play the role of "Lu Yiyi" well, Lin Yuan went to the hospital a lot in the past two days, observing the mental state of the patients on the bench in the hospital corridor, and trying to figure out their inner activities.

Therefore, for Lin Yuan, this scene is not difficult.

After putting on makeup and changing into thick clothes, Lin Yuan walked slowly towards the set.

From this moment on, he has assumed the role of "Lu Yiyi". Like the patients in the hospital, Lin Yuan can be said to be extra cautious when walking, as if he was afraid of being noticed by others. If Ning Hao hadn't been staring at Seeing when Lin Yuan would come out of the dressing shed, I'm afraid he was really ignored.

When he saw Lin Yuan in this state for the first time, Ning Hao couldn't help but his eyes lit up.

But then he shook his head again: "It's a pity, with this acting skill, it would be great if he was born a few years earlier!"

His current desire to create is not as strong as it was back then. Although he is reluctant to admit it, this is the way it is in this business. Maybe he will run out of inspiration at some point. If he wants to come up with a good script and cooperate with Lin Yuan, it is not as simple as it was back then. up.

As Lin Yuan entered the set, all departments were quickly in place.

"The second scene of "I'm Not the God of Medicine", the first shot, let's start!"

This scene was not difficult, and it was mainly Lin Yuan's performance. When Xu Zheng and Lao Ren were negotiating the price outside, Lin Yuan took off the three-layer mask he was wearing, and his face was full of thoughts.

When he saw Xu Zheng coming in from the outside, he quickly squeezed out a smile.

Lin Yuan's detailed control of this micro-expression undoubtedly deeply impressed the crew present, even though they thought Lin Yuan was a bit harsh as a director, but it is undeniable that Lin Yuan's acting skills are definitely the best they have ever seen. The best of the young actors.

In order for Xu Zheng to help smuggle medicine from India, Lin Yuan put on a smiling face all the time. Although he played the role of a patient suffering from ailments, the smile on his face at this moment is not at all abrupt. A trace of sadness.

It wasn't until Xu Zheng issued the eviction order that Lin Yuan hurriedly left a phone number: "If you change your mind, can you call me?"

Ning Hao nodded. It can be said that the performance of the two of them did not make any mistakes. He was about to shout.

However, it was not his voice that sounded in the next second, but Lin Yuanman said helplessly: "I am waiting for the medicine to save my life."

Xu Zheng was also caught off guard by Lin Yuan's sudden addition, he raised his head and looked at Lin Yuan meaningfully.

He didn't answer anything, because he knew that a silent response at this time was the best expression.

After Lin Yuan finished speaking, he reached out and put on the three-layer mask that symbolized protection, leaving a lonely back in front of the camera.

As Lin Yuan walked out of the shop, the close-up shots were quickly shown to Xu Zheng.

I saw Xu Zheng took a deep breath of his cigarette, and dismissively threw aside the business card with the phone number of "Lv Yiyi".

"Okay, card!"

Ning Hao shouted loudly, he didn't say it because he suddenly realized that he was not the director.

If this play is according to his standards, it must be over.

But Ning Hao couldn't figure out what Lin Yuan's standard was, so he had to wait for Lin Yuan to watch this film before making a decision.

Lin Yuan walked to the monitor and replayed the film he had just shot.

He basically played the previous content in fast forward, because he was on the scene, as long as the cameraman didn't make some huge mistakes, judging from the performances of him and Xu Zheng, basically there would be no problems.

The only thing that might make a mistake is the part where he hastily added a line, but fortunately Xu Zheng's acting skills are stable enough, and he took his impromptu lines firmly with a single expression.

One afternoon, two scenes, three shots, the shooting progress is within Lin Yuan's expectation, it's not a good start, it can only be said to be quite satisfactory.

Lin Yuan looked at the time, took the loudspeaker in the hand of the field manager, and told everyone: "It's getting late, everyone has worked hard today, pack up and keep the equipment, go back and rest!"

"Good Director Lin!"

"Thank you Director Lin Yuan!"

When the staff of various departments of the production team heard that today's show was over, they couldn't help applauding.

After Lin Yuan left with Xu Zheng and Ning Hao, the tense nerves of the crew finally relaxed a lot.

While packing up the equipment in their respective departments, they couldn't help but whispered.

"Lin Yuan is too powerful. It's the first time he became a director, so he pulled out the cameraman and lighting team leader to stand out."

"What Liwei, didn't they make a mistake themselves?"

"You don't understand, the water here is very deep"

"But having said that, what do you think of Lin Yuan's level as a director?"

"The director's level can't be seen for the time being, but the acting skills are really good. I just watched director Ning Hao's eyes shine!"

"So what if you have good acting skills? I don't think other big directors are as strict as him. We have to be careful, or we will have to blame us tomorrow."

Everyone in the crew could not help nodding.

The film was so strict on the first day of filming, I am afraid that the next filming days will not be so easy.
