You've passed the college entrance examination, but can't you make it in the entertainment

Deng Xuefeng soon discovered that something was wrong not only with these simple actors, but also with the whole show.

After the actors arrived at the set, they went to the dressing room to put on makeup and hair. The male actors did their own makeup, and only the actresses had a makeup artist standing next to them.

This scene reminded Deng Xuefeng of those green years when he was acting in dramas decades ago. At that time, conditions were difficult and the crew did not have the money to hire so many makeup artists. In order to save time, most of the male actors did their own makeup, leaving the makeup artist to the female actors. Actors use.

Deng Xuefeng asked Leyan, who was trimming his eyebrows:

"The crew doesn't have enough makeup artists?"

Le Yan flicked the debris on his eyebrows and shook his head:
"It's enough, but it's not necessary. The actor's makeup is too heavy and looks like makeup, which makes him look bad on camera."

In the days after the camera was turned on, after every shot, the makeup teacher would come over to touch up Le Yan's makeup.

Le Yan saw on the monitor that the powder on his face was too thick and unnatural, so he told the crew that there was no need to arrange a makeup artist for him. As long as the lighting was good, the bare makeup would look more realistic.

Moreover, the content recently filmed revolves around the story of the student period. Students wearing school uniforms are too glamorous and can easily cause drama, so it is better to be more natural.

After that, no actor on the crew dared to use a makeup artist.
Deng Xuefeng agreed with Le Yan's view.

He couldn't stand those actors with eyebrows painted and powdered, they didn't look manly at all.

When he was in class at Jingying, he also disliked students wearing makeup. Regardless of whether they were men or women, he would order them to wash it off immediately if they saw it.

Because of these small details, the cast and crew of "Charlotte Trouble" improved their impression of Deng Xuefeng a little bit.

The young actors in the crew are very simple and down-to-earth, with no celebrity airs at all. Deng Xuefeng vaguely feels that he can see the shadow of the older generation of actors in them, which is rare.

After putting on makeup, Le Yan took Deng Xuefeng back to the broadcast studio again.

On the way, Deng Xuefeng stopped Leyan:

"Now that I've said hello, why don't you go to the monitoring room? Where is your lounge? Go back and wait for the filming to start."

The monitoring room is where the director watches the filming. Deng Xuefeng guessed that Leyan took him there as soon as he got out of the car to greet the cast and crew.

This is as it should be. Suddenly there is a big living person on the crew, and it should be introduced to everyone.

There were no happy words in the first shot today.

Without you, let's just go to rest and don't go to the monitoring room.

Unexpectedly, Leyan said apologetically:

"Sorry, Mr. Deng, I don't have a place to rest alone. When I'm not filming, I sit in the studio. How about I call the car back and you can rest in the car?"

It's because he didn't think carefully.

He is a big young man, and his life is rough.

But Deng Xuefeng has thin skin and tender flesh, so there is no way he can endure hardships with him.
Deng Xuefeng was stunned for a moment, then said calmly:

"No, then go to the monitoring room."

Wherever Leyan goes, he goes.

When I was filming in the countryside, I would lie down in the corn field when I was tired.

How can there be so many things?
As he walked, he taught Leyan his experience:

"It's good to stay in the monitoring room. You can watch other actors filming. Your emotions and involvement should be adjusted at any time according to the situation of other actors. Although they are not in the same scene, the content of your performance will be packaged. "

After meeting all the actors in the crew, Deng Xuefeng believed that there was a high probability that there was no so-called 'Tu Emperor' here. Everyone was very simple, but he thought too much.

In this case, the task of this trip is to teach Leyan experience. You can learn knowledge on the set that you can't learn in school. Today we will have a live teaching.

"Okay, okay." Le Yan nodded like garlic.

Deng Xuefeng put his hands behind his back and continued:

"Go in later and sit next to the director."

When he was still little Karami, he grew up quickly by squatting next to the director and listening to him telling other actors about their plays.

Although the director is giving guidance to others, the same principle applies to every actor.

Learn from the lessons of others and you will be able to find shortcuts when you encounter the same situation.

Listen more, watch more, practice more, all are indispensable.

This is all based on experience, and I would never tell the average person!

But when they returned to the studio again
The whole room was full of people, especially next to the monitor. It was hard to see where the director was.

Deng Xuefeng stopped at the door and did not dare to go in.

What about the meeting?

Should I avoid it?
Le Yan pushed Deng Xuefeng in and explained to him:

"I forgot to tell you that all the actors in our crew don't have a rest room."

In fact, Le Yan also found it strange.

He doesn't want the rest room because he wants to prove to others that he is still himself, not only not special, but also very friendly to the people.

But I don’t understand why other people don’t want to talk in the lounge.

Maybe they are all young people and think it is more lively to crowd together?

"All the actors stay here every day?" Deng Xuefeng pointed in the direction of the monitor and asked in disbelief.

"Yes, everything." Le Yan smiled and nodded, "Let me just say that our crew is very interesting, right?"

Deng Xuefeng narrowed his eyes and fell into distant memories again.

The gathering of so many actors from the same cast reminded him of his days as an extra many years ago.

There were no filmings the year after he graduated, but actors would lose their enthusiasm for performing if they stopped, so Deng Xuefeng went to be an extra. He could be happy all day long if he grabbed a passerby who had no lines.

For more than half a year, the situation every day was like this. A group of young people crowded together, talking about endless dreams and bragging about their awesomeness.

Looking back now, it's quite interesting.

But here, the topic he heard the actors around him talking about was
"I think the second one is good. The second one is the most emotional, but the second one is a bit slack."

"I think number five is good. This is comedy. The important thing is the rhythm, not the emotion."

"Comedy also requires emotions. How can you make a movie without emotions?"

"Let's talk! Do you think emotion or rhythm is more important in comedy? You'll be the judge!"

Leyan stood up and glanced at the monitor:

"This shot, I think it all depends on the director's handling of the shot. Different camera moves lead to different performance methods."

Leyan quickly joined the discussion.

Deng Xuefeng looked around at the actors in the room.

What a strong learning atmosphere
No one was chatting or resting. Everyone was watching the pictures on the monitor carefully and having active discussions.

This is the best set environment he has ever seen.

Deng Xuefeng vaguely remembers that when filming a few years ago, the director was deserted. Most of the actors left the scene after filming their parts. Even if they stayed on the set, they would check their phones or play games. They would not talk about professional knowledge at all, let alone There will be active discussions as at this time.

"Teacher Deng, how do you think this scene is appropriate?" The actors couldn't help but handed the microphone to Deng Xuefeng.

Although Deng Xuefeng is notorious, he is professional.

And judging from the way he talked softly to Le Yan, he was obviously in a good mood.

Maybe you can give them a few words of mercy?
Under normal circumstances, when asked professional questions, Deng Xuefeng, who has a cold personality, would do Tai Chi and push away without saying anything.

He is here for Leyan, why should he give advice to others?
But the various scenes he saw after arriving at the scene awakened the "kind" side in Deng Xuefeng's heart that had been dormant for a long time.

These simple young people, as well as this crew with a strong learning atmosphere, are very similar to what he was like when he first entered the acting industry.

At that time, if I could get one or two comments from the seniors on the crew, I would wake up laughing when I went home.

With Deng Xuefeng's character, he wanted to talk about the essence, but his attention was all on observing the actors, and he didn't even pay attention to what was being filmed.

He stood up and walked towards the director's monitor, but there were too many people in front of him, so what he could see was not very clear.

Le Yan saw Deng Xuefeng walking forward and stood up with him.

Seeing that the prince was getting up, the crowd immediately opened a small gap to let the two of them pass. Deng Xuefeng looked at the contents of the monitor and did not notice this situation.

He gradually frowned.

No wonder there is such lively discussion around it.

There's a big problem with this actor's performance
Su Tian didn't know that Deng Xuefeng was already here.

He now has a black line on his forehead. Looking at the content on the monitor, his facial features are unnaturally twisted together.

After Charlotte traveled to high school, in addition to several classmates with very distinctive personalities, there was also a teacher Wang who played a very important role.

Although "Charlotte" is a comedy movie, when casting, we considered that this character had many conflicts with Charlotte before and was not likable, so we didn't place too much emphasis on his comedy ability, but more on the actors and the script. Whether the character's appearance and personality are close to each other.

But after the supporting roles were confirmed one by one, Su Tian noticed that there were some problems with Teacher Wang's casting. He and the others were not on the same channel.

The actor does look like a people's teacher, but he doesn't look like Charlotte's teacher.

In the month before the shooting started, Su Tian tried to change roles and adjust the script. However, due to the short preparation time, the actor's performance failed to meet Su Tian's satisfaction until the shooting started.

I gritted my teeth and started filming, hoping that the "funny" performances of these young people could turn around Teacher Wang's performance, but the fact was that the truth was completely wrong.

The more Su Tian adjusted, the worse his condition became.

The other three or five shots must have been passed. Whenever filming Teacher Wang's scenes, it took several times the time.

In order not to waste the time of other actors (mainly Le Yan) and avoid the sense of incompatibility with other actors in the same frame, Su Tian could only cut many of Teacher Wang's scenes into separate scenes and shoot them separately.

What we are filming now is this actor's one-man show.

The first scene after Charlotte returned from time travel was the classroom. Because he thought it was a dream, he made many bold moves. Teacher Wang reprimanded him many times in this scene.

Su Tian asked the actor to stand in front of the blackboard and record some words of 'reprimanding' Charlotte, but after ten points, he still failed to meet Su Tian's requirements, either too hard or too loose.

Su Tian put down the walkie-talkie angrily.

When I stood up, I bumped into someone, but he didn't even look at me and just walked away.

Le Yan rubbed Deng Xuefeng's chest:

"Are you okay?"

Deng Xuefeng waved his hand.

When a director encounters a situation that an actor does not understand, it is inevitable to become angry.

Forget about Su Tian, ​​Deng Xuefeng's blood pressure soared after reading two of them.

"What is he going to do?" Deng Xuefeng looked back at Su Tian and asked.

"I went to do a demonstration on site." Leyan replied.

Every time he shoots a scene with Teacher Wang, Su Tian inevitably has to set an example several times, and everyone is used to it.

Deng Xuefeng turned around and saw that Su Tian appeared on the monitor.

This kind of director who can demonstrate by himself is rare.

Many directors feel that the actors are not right, so they ask the performance director to make adjustments on the spot, while they only sit behind the monitor and move their mouths.

People like Peng Yiwei, who claim to be only responsible for bringing the actors into the artistic conception and not interfering with the performance, are actually not performing well themselves.

Su Tian dared to go to the scene to demonstrate that he could act.

But how was your performance?

In the monitor, Su Tian, ​​who had a dark look on his face just a second ago, suddenly changed his face.

He patted the desk and said seriously:
"Charlotte, I'm talking to you! I'm telling you, don't pretend like this. We don't have time to waste time here with you, do you hear me?"

Deng Xuefeng pursed his lips and commented in a low voice:

"The acting was pretty good, very natural."

Unexpectedly, Su Tian's performance was very relaxed.

Has he ever filmed a movie?
Le Yan whispered in his ear:
"Both Su Tian and Mr. Huang grew up in the film studio compound, and have been exposed to acting since they wore crotchless pants."

When Su Tian went to participate in "Mushroom House", he and Teacher Huang started acting together as soon as they met.

Having been acting for decades, his skills are not bad!
Deng Xuefeng nodded.

Su Tian's score in his heart also improved.

He admires directors who can act in his own way.

After the demonstration, Su Tian turned back to the actor and said:
"I know you are trying to show a sense of 'comedy', but you can't be too casual. The main theme of the mood here should be serious. You are a teacher after all."

After hearing what Su Tian said, the actors around asked Deng Xuefeng:

"Do you think Teacher Wang should be more relaxed or serious here?"

Just because he didn't get it right, Su Tiancai kept asking for reshoots.

From the perspective of a professional teacher, how should it be represented here?

You speak boldly!
We promise not to tell the director!
Deng Xuefeng answered seriously:
"There is no problem with the director's direction. The serious tone should be the main theme here."

"You also think it should be serious? Why?" The actors around him continued to ask.

Deng Xuefeng pointed to the script on the table and said to everyone as if giving a lecture at school:
"You should pay attention to the scenes before and after this scene. When Charlotte traveled to the classroom, Teacher Wang was giving questions to the students. There were still a hundred days before the college entrance examination. Suddenly someone broke in without following the rules and disturbed the important teaching content. The characters Have you learned about substitution? Mr. Wang, what are your emotions?"

"Angry! So angry!"

"I will definitely scold him."

"I understand, this is how I have to understand the lines and characters."

The actors only focused on the few lines they were filming and ignored the context.

As expected, it was the famous Deng Xuefeng.

Not only were they given answers, but they were also given ideas for solving the problems.

Awesome!
Everyone looked at Le Yan with even more envy.

This is simply the script of the male protagonist in the novel.

Not only does he have noble blood, but he also has an extremely skilled grandfather who is always by his side.

You kid is so good at giving birth!
While everyone was happily continuing to ask questions, a bald man squeezed through the crowd and excitedly took Deng Xuefeng's hand:
"Thank you for your affirmation!"

Su Tian was so anxious that he forgot that Deng Xuefeng was coming today.

Okay
The idol is exactly what he thought.

But Deng Xuefeng is even more awesome. Su Tian relies on the director's intuition, and Deng Xuefeng's words are reasonable and well-founded.

"But-" Deng Xuefeng suddenly spoke.

Everyone held their breath, waiting for his next words.

Deng Xuefeng looked at Le Yan and said:
"I have told you many times that if you just read the lines based on emotion and character logic, it will be a soulless performance. Every shot and every line should serve the character."

People around him cried with envy.

The prince is so happy. There is also a teacher joining the group to provide on-site guidance! And it was explained so thoroughly and clearly.

Le Yan grinned and nodded, feeling extremely happy.

He saw all the naked eyes around him.

He can keep a low profile, but he doesn't want Deng Xuefeng to keep a low profile!

The more Teacher Deng is sought after, the happier he is!

As the saying goes, father and son are connected.

The little Jiujiu in young people's hearts can be seen at a glance at Deng Xuefeng's age.

Seeing Le Yan's smile, he immediately understood what this kid was thinking.

Deng Xuefeng tentatively asked Su Tian:
"Do you mind if I go talk to the actor about the scene?" (End of Chapter)
