The Best Actor in the Vase of Meiyu

Chapter 1269 Kill two birds with one stone

Reese: Me? The studio? Is this a joke?

However, Anson smiled with no joking in mind, looked at Reese with bright eyes, and invited -

This is the real purpose of Anson coming to the recording studio today.

To be honest, Anson's voice is not in the best condition right now, and he has not yet recovered from the noise and excitement of yesterday. The Grammy Awards ceremony was indeed burned out.

Not only him, Miles and the others are probably in the same situation now.

In this state, it is obviously not suitable for recording.

However, as soon as he got off the plane, Anson went to the recording studio.

On the one hand, in order to help the band find their form, Anson did not sing but protected his voice. However, whether it is the recording of a single or the upcoming film shoot, "singing" is a key link and Anson needs to start adjusting.

Don’t forget that in “Walking with the Song”, live singing is the focus.

On the other hand, it is to find Reese's state.

Reese had told Anson before that she had been exploring and researching, but always felt that something was missing, and she didn't know how to improve it. It was like there was a layer of membrane between them, which she could see and touch but could not break.

It feels particularly bad.

It just so happened that Anson and his team needed to go to the recording studio to finish the recording work. Since the filming process of "Singing with You" was inevitably delayed a little, they might as well take advantage of this opportunity to help Reese find her feeling.

Kill two birds with one stone.

Anson is also absolutely serious about "Sing Along". One hundred percent.

Although the filming of "Sing Along" may need to be postponed for a few days due to unexpected circumstances, Anson still makes full use of the unexpected situation and completes the work transition as seamlessly as possible.

It’s about preparing for Reese, but also preparing for myself.

And then, this scene happened.

Looking up, Anson looked at Reese, inviting her with his eyes.

Reese: stunned, surprised, resisted, shy, reserved, trying to escape.

Anson just laughed.

Obviously, this is a normal reaction. Ordinary people often need some time to react when faced with unexpected situations. After all, there are only a few people like Anson who can take things as they come and be at ease with them.

But Lily, Miles, Connor and the others also cast their eyes over.

Passionate and happy.

Reese was stunned.

Subconsciously, she resisted, she refused to enter the recording studio to make a fool of herself; but after a moment of daze, Reese suddenly realized that she still hadn't completely entered the role of June Carter -

The movie is about to start shooting.

At that time, she will need to sing, not only live in front of the audience, but also perform and interpret June Carter through performance.

If she wasn’t prepared in the studio, would it be any different going into the set?

Reese took a deep breath, mustered up her courage, secretly clenched her fist to cheer herself up, stepped forward with her head held high, and pushed open the door of the recording room.

The music instantly surrounded her, filled with joy and happiness.

It was completely different from the feeling of standing outside and appreciating. The excitement on the eardrums, the touch on the skin, and even the slightly trembling heart, everything was different. All the pores on the body were opened. Reese herself didn't realize that the corners of her mouth were raised with a smile.

Involuntarily, I clapped my hands to the rhythm of the melody, my eyes slightly excited yet confused, trying to find the direction.

Performing a live band and performing with an accompaniment tape are two different things, because in a live band performance, there may be deviations and accidents, the beat may be missed or missed, and one needs to be prepared for mistakes at all times, everything is sudden and impromptu, but precisely because of this, each member can often create different sparks according to different states, and finally give the performance a unique texture.

Reese tried performing with an accompaniment tape, and she could recite June Carter's songs by heart; Reese also tried to perform in a collaborative way, carrying her guitar and performing with the piano, but with only two instruments, everything was still under control.

Now, entering the studio live band performance mode, Reese needs to find her form.

Looking at the bewildered Reese, Anson signaled with his eyes that the others should pause, with only Anson's guitar as a guide, ready to cut in.

Unfortunately, Reese missed the opportunity.

Anson was not worried and continued playing. After eight beats, he came back and looked at Reese with bright eyes, indicating Reese to listen carefully to the performance.

Then--

"I walked into a bar the other day..."

Reese spoke, and even though she was a little careful and reserved, she hit the rhythm perfectly, which made the smile on her lips bloom uncontrollably.

"I put a nickel in the jukebox to hear it play, and I didn't know what song to listen to, so I didn't wait to choose, I just put a nickel in the slot and it played jukebox blues."

Cheerful, happy, jumping.

June Carter's singing voice is very expressive. One can clearly feel the beating of vitality between the words. Her energetic interpretation swings freely in the melody, not just presenting the lyrics.

Right before my eyes, Reese is also experiencing the same thing.

It can be heard that Reese has carefully studied June Carter's singing style, her pronunciation, her nasal resonance, her ending sound processing, etc., all of which have June Carter's iconic characteristics and are very recognizable.

It's hard to imagine how much time and effort she spent researching these details.

However, if it is just imitation, no matter how lifelike and exactly the same it is, it has no vitality of its own. It is hard to imagine how the actor should make the character alive during the performance. After all, it is just a poor imitation.

Basic acting class.

How to find a balance between stereotyped imitation and in-depth interpretation, and how to find a balance between the character's state and the actor's understanding, this is the real difficulty of biographical films.

Actors need to understand the "characters" and, in the process of digging out the truth, find an artistic way of presentation and complete the performance with their own understanding and interpretation.

The so-called biography is, to some extent, the "reality" in the eyes of directors, screenwriters and actors. What they see, express and interpret is only one aspect of the real person, or one aspect of their own understanding and imagination. It is not 100% true of the ideal state.

After all, film is also a form of artistic processing and creation, which is fundamentally different from documentary and truth.

In most biographical films, directors and actors often only stay at the superficial level of imitation and presentation. They dare not capture, nor do they know how to capture the vitality underneath the reality. This is the culprit that makes biographical films boring.

Reese, is that the case?

At least that's the opening.

In the first verse of the song, Reese seemed a little reserved and nervous, with a wandering and inquiring look in her eyes, always worried about missing the rhythm or being out of tune.

Although she perfectly copied and pasted June Carter's personal style, she failed to give the song soul.

Then, seeing the encouragement in Anson's eyes, Reese gradually found her state and began to grow bolder. When she entered the second verse of the song, the hem of her skirt began to fly up.
