Chapter 163 Director Wang's Acting Class

As soon as Wang Zheng's words fell, a rather embarrassing voice sounded: "Boss, I know, I know!"

Looking in the direction of the source of the sound, I saw Nangong Tiezhu holding an arm high, in the eyes of everyone searching, like a primary school student eager to ask questions from the teacher.

Wang Zheng glared at him fiercely, and then he withdrew his raised arm resentfully.

"Dean Xu, as a Tier [-] writer, you must be able to tell a thing or two from the script."

While turning his eyes, Wang Zheng looked at Xu Kang with a half-smile.It caused Xu Kang to stare immediately, this young man was obviously trying to embarrass me.

However, the third-tier Wen Dao powerhouse is worthy of the third-tier. After pondering for a while, Xu Kang talked eloquently:
"Although the old man has never been in contact with filming, but through the study of the script, the old man feels that the film should be countless times shorter than the TV series, but it is also countless times more detailed.

Even meticulously crafting every picture and action, if the old man's guess is right, the shooting time of the movie will definitely not be less than the shooting time of the TV series. "

Clap clap, Wang Zheng applauded without hesitation, and said:
"The dean is worthy of being the dean, and the answer is basically correct. As Dean Xu said, the rhythm of movies is more compact than that of TV dramas. Therefore, in the filming of movies, unless necessary, there is very little room for actors to perform. .And because the performance space is small, the movie has higher requirements on the acting skills of the actors."

"What is a performance space? It is how much of an actor's performance skills can be used within a limited time.

You may not understand this, but we have plenty of time anyway, so here we will do a simple on-site teaching.

Miss Xiaoqian, come out for a moment. "

The eloquent Wang Zheng suddenly looked at the female ghost Xiaoqian, making Xiaoqian a little at a loss.But in the end she still walked out under Wang Zheng's encouraging eyes.

The female ghost Xiaoqian who came to the open space looked at Wang Zheng in a daze, while Wang Zheng smiled kindly: "Miss Xiaoqian, sit down."

While talking, Wang Zheng gave Ma Yi a look, and suddenly a stone pier quietly formed beside the female ghost Xiaoqian under Ma Yi's magic.

Xiaoqian stood beside Shidunzi, looked at Wang Zheng in surprise, and asked cautiously, "Young Master Wang, do you just sit casually?"

Wang Zheng nodded and said, "Yes, sit wherever you want. Besides, in the crew, everyone calls me the director."

Xiaoqian nodded, and after simple thinking, she sat on the stone pier in an elegant and charming atmosphere as usual.

After finishing this movement, she glanced at Wang Zheng, saw that Wang Zheng didn't respond, so she continued to sit.

After sitting for about 1 minute, under the watchful eyes of everyone, she felt a little unnatural, didn't know what to do, seemed very disturbed, and didn't know what to do.

Wang Zheng saw Xiaoqian's embarrassment, and said with a smile: "Okay, there's no need to act. I believe everyone understands. I only told Xiaoqian to sit down and didn't tell her other information. She felt very at a loss when she acted." , very unnatural. It is undoubtedly a waste of precious time in the film."

When the rest of the people heard the words, although they didn't understand what kind of medicine Wang Zheng sold in the gourd, they nodded slowly. After all, Wang Zheng's words made sense.

At this time, Wang Zheng, who saw everyone's reaction, continued to say:
"So, in a limited time, even a limited time, try to express the character, psychology of the characters as much as possible, and even render the whole environment in reverse through actions and demeanor, this is the meaning of performance space.

If you want to make good use of the performance space as much as possible, you must understand a concept called the three elements of action.

What are the three elements of action?It's what, why and how.

Take the action of sitting as an example, the 'doing' is to sit on a stool;'

Why' is why you want to sit on the stool, you have to have a purpose, such as reading;
"How to do it" is the concretization of "what to do". For example, when I sit down to read a book, I have to sit down and open the book to read.

Among them, "how to do it" is the most important thing. Acting is often about "how to do it".

Everyone remember that actors must use actions to convey the plot and shape the image, and actions cannot be separated from the three elements of action!
Now I add a condition, grooming.Xiaoqian, you play sitting and dressing up! "

Xiaoqian pondered for a while, lowered her head and pretended to have a comb in her hand, and slowly began to comb her long hair like black silk, every time she combed it very carefully, as if she was immersed in the daily routine of her daughter's grooming .

Wang Zheng clapped his hands and signaled Xiaoqian to stop:
"As you can see, with the action of reading a book, Xiaoqian's performance is much more vivid. This is the three elements of action.

As those of you who are about to film, the script you get will not describe specific actions. You need to design it yourself, or follow the director's advice, and this kind of action design can only show the skills of an actor.

In short, a good actor can really bring a play to life.

Take Xiaoqian's performance of sitting and dressing as an example. Her performance just now was too simple. We can design more movements to make the whole performance more vivid.

For example, we can design that when combing the hair, a lot of fallen hair is entangled on the comb. No matter how Xiaoqian handles these hairs, she can make her movements more maple-like;

We can also make more complex designs, such as when no one is around when dressing up, Xiaoqian suddenly thinks of a playful hairstyle.

Thinking of this, Xiaoqian will have dual activities of heart and expression, and will respond, and the performance will become richer.

Xiaoqian, let's do it again, this time with more movements. "

Xiaoqian thought for a while, then suddenly stretched out her hand and made a gesture of swinging a mirror. Accompanied by Xiaoqian's movement, the dark ghostly aura formed an oval mirror shape.

After fiddling with the mirror a few times, Xiaoqian looked at herself in the mirror with satisfaction, and then showed a satisfied smile.

Through this action, everyone understood at this moment that Xiaoqian was very satisfied with her appearance.

And through Xiaoqian's simple action, many people have already nodded their heads thoughtfully, and they have understood the meaning of action and performance.

A few seconds later, Xiaoqian suddenly showed an innocent and childlike smile on her face. She looked around as if she was guilty, and then began to toss her hair under the sly eyes.

In no time, her hair was a playful discovery.

Facing herself in the mirror, Xiaoqian showed a satisfied and childlike smile.

Seeing this, Wang Zheng couldn't help being a little surprised in his heart, Xiaoqian's acting talent really exceeded his expectations.

You know, Wang Zheng watched these things on the set for a long time, asked several people who understood them, and even sneaked into the school to observe them before he understood them.

But on Xiaoqian, she learned it through her own simple reminder?
It's really human, it's maddening!
However, Wang Zheng was not fascinated by the surprise in his heart, instead he suddenly reminded:
"Now grandma suddenly came in!"

When Xiaoqian heard this, she let out an ouch, and then used her mana to spread her hair, and shook her head lightly, and three thousand black hairs streaked through the air, like black ink being splashed in white water.

The beautiful woman exudes, and the picture is extremely beautiful.

Under the effect of mana, the original playful hairstyle turned into loose hair again, and Xiaoqian looked at the direction of her grandmother a little embarrassedly, and said:
"Grandma, why are you here?"

Xiaoqian's tone was a little flustered, a little blaming, and more shy.

Seeing this, Wang Zheng smiled and applauded:

"Very good! Xiaoqian, go down! Everyone saw it! The same sitting, at first it was monotonous and boring, but the second time, it became more lively when there were movements; the last performance was full of the fun of life!
In fact, to put it bluntly, filming is to express the elements needed for a story in as short a time as possible through language, demeanor, expression, body, matching environment, other people, soundtrack, etc. "

After saying this, the vast majority of people nodded thoughtfully, which turned out to be the reason.

Even Xu Kang, a third-tier scholar of literature and art, couldn't help but applaud loudly:

"Okay! Well said! Xiaoyou doesn't say that I haven't noticed these small details in life, it really means that life is full of knowledge."

Wang Zheng smiled and nodded, then continued:

"External actions, characters' language, and even the entire action process are all important factors in the performance. Only after mastering these can we say that we can perform the performance we want to perform initially.

But these alone are not enough. The reason why life is life is the most important thing is emotion, but if you can't express emotion, the whole performance will be relatively blunt, just like a marionette. "

"But director, we have never experienced many emotions, so how can we express them?"

As soon as Wang Zheng finished speaking, Xiaoqian looked at Wang Zheng full of curiosity and asked with a frown.

If you haven't experienced it, you will naturally not experience that kind of emotion.Regarding Xiaoqian's quickness, Wang Zheng nodded approvingly, and then said with a smile:

"Xiaoqian said it well, we have not experienced many things due to limited experience, so naturally we don't understand what kind of emotions should be in it.

However, for this situation, we can use emotional substitution. "

"Emotional replacement method?" Many people chewed on this strange name.

Wang Zheng nodded, and then continued:

"Emotional substitution, as the name suggests, is to find the corresponding emotion to replace.

If you haven't experienced many things, you can't capture the corresponding emotions, and the performance is not real enough.

But I can't let the actors go through it again, to experience that feeling, right?For example, Xiaoqian, if you want to meet your lover, I can't bring you a lover, right? "

Wang Zheng's words immediately caused a burst of laughter, and also made Xiaoqian's pale pretty face flushed with blush.Looking at the innocent Xiaoqian, Wang Zheng continued:

"Then what should we do? It's very simple, find a similar feeling to replace it. Xiaoqian, tell me how you feel about meeting your lover soon?"

Xiaoqian pondered for a while, then said with some uncertainty: "Excited, excited, can't wait to fly to him right away?"

Wang Zheng nodded and said, "That's right, it seems that you have a lot of experience!"

Xiaoqian stomped her feet when she heard the words, and protested with a blushing face, "Who is more experienced? Director, don't talk nonsense!"

Only ghosts believe that if Zhu Ming is fascinated, who is rich if you are not rich?
Wang Zheng continued to explain:
"Xiaoqian was right just now, the girl is going to see her lover soon, she is excited and full of anticipation, she can't wait to see him right away.

So when do we have similar moods in life, in fact, there are quite a lot.

For example, in Miss Xiaoqian's family, grandma has been away for a long time, and today is the day when grandma comes back. Thinking about such a thing makes me look forward to it, and even thinking about it makes me excited!

Then when we are performing, we can imagine such a scene, feel such a mood, and use it to express the excitement of seeing a lover. This is emotional substitution!
For another example, when you are acting in a crying scene, you can imagine that grandma doesn't want you.Make sure you can't stop crying when you think about it. "

After Wang Zheng's eloquent talk, many people showed a look of sudden realization.

In fact, such emotional substitution is not uncommon in their lives.The most direct is the process by which monks of Wendao comprehend the true meaning of the poems of the predecessors.

It's just that no one has ever studied this process carefully, and no one has systematically arranged this thing that everyone knows.

Hearing what Wang Zheng said today, these people were suddenly stunned.Even because of Wang Zheng's explanation, their efficiency will increase a lot when they realize some truth and artistic conception in the future.

Actually, it's not just emotional substitution.Many things in the performance are closely related to life.

After all, drama is like life, and acting is to interpret a life.Although it is higher than life, it also comes from life after all.

Looking at the thoughtful people, Wang Zheng gave them a moment to digest, then smiled and said:

"If you have gained something, you can stay here for a while and digest it slowly. Director Wang's acting class is not over yet."

　Two in one, okay?
