Movie Master
Chapter 50: acting tutor
Lance didn't speak, just lit a cigarette and took two slow puffs. The brief silence became more and more oppressive amidst the lingering smoke. Through the smoke, one could vaguely see Lance's slender fingertips holding a cigarette, gently rubbing the ends of his eyebrows, and the sparse sunlight pierced through the hazy The mist sprinkled on the fingers that looked like bamboo joints, cast some shadows indistinctly, and carefully outlined the meaningful eyebrows bit by bit, like a black and white photo in the 1930s. Let time begin to turn back.
The air slowly froze like this, and the tense atmosphere was almost suffocating. Suddenly, Lance's deep voice traveled through time and space, breaking the confinement, "Leonardo, can't you memorize the lines?" Those words without much emotional color were so heavy that the surrounding people They all lowered their heads, and the muscles on their backs couldn't help but tense.
Javier and Martin couldn't help but exchanged glances, and even the movement of swallowing their saliva became cautious.
The young man whose name was called subconsciously took half a step forward, but his footsteps just fell, and he only felt Lance's gaze slowly fall on his skin, which made his movements stagnate, and then awkwardly Standing in place, not moving forward or backward; hands could not help rubbing gently on the thighs, but even so, the palms were still wet. The tension in his heart made his mouth so dry that he couldn't even utter a word. He could only open his eyes and look at Lance at a loss.
"Then don't recite the lines." Lance said in a deep voice, which made the young man feel at a loss. He raised his head and looked around blankly, but he didn't know who to ask for help. His eyes were filled with tears. The innocent and helpless expression is unbearable.
But even so, there was still no one talking around, and everyone quietly lowered their heads, avoiding the young man's eyes for help. On the set, no one dared to challenge Lance's authority, no one.
Seeing such a scene, Lance pursed his lips slightly and took a puff of smoke, "I'm serious, don't recite the lines."
Lance is not reprimanding, let alone joking, he is trying to guide these non-professional actors to the correct performance track in a way that suits these non-professional actors.
Although Lance had trained these children for two months, the time was too short. He could only teach some basic things and let the children get used to the camera—not everyone has this ability, many people Standing in front of the camera will feel unnatural, even with the same hands and feet. So, after the actual shooting, Lance had to spend a lot of energy directing the details and even re-directing.
In the previous filming scenes, there were many rival scenes between the actor who played Xiaodouzi and the actor who played Dumb, and the scenes were very tense. Dumb kept bullying Xiaodouzi, but there was a huge age gap of nearly ten years between the two The resulting physical and psychological differences made it impossible for Xiaodouzi to resist. On the one hand, Duan didn't care at all, and bullied Xiaodouzi as a matter of course; on the other hand, Xiaodouzi kept accumulating anger and resentment, and the chemical reaction between the two was also an important factor in Xiaodouzi's growth process.
However, the two actors only met for the first time, and they couldn't show the kind of level suppression caused by the accumulation of time. Therefore, after observing for three days, Lance simply let the dumb actors bully Xiaodouzi's actors on and off the screen, and at the same time did not tell Xiaodouzi's actors the truth.
In just ten days of getting along, the atmosphere between the two children became more and more tense. As the filming progressed, it reached its peak in a scene where Dumb slapped Xiaodouzi, causing Xiaodouzi to cry and wipe Tears, while looking back with resentful eyes.
This scene was shot only twice—a few different angles, and the filming was completed smoothly, and Xiaodouzi's performance was even more amazing.
Since then, Lance has not directly told Xiaodouzi's actor the truth, and let him continue this performance state. After all his scenes were filmed, Lance told him the truth, and asked the dumb actor to come over to express his apology.
Lance clearly knows that these children do not have acting skills, they need a situation that they can truly enter, and then show their true selves. This is the best way to get the best results.
The kid in front of him is called Leandro-Firmino (Leandro-Firmino). He lives in the City of God, but he didn't join the gang that steals Man/Nuer. He is just a very ordinary kid. He has no interest in becoming an actor. The reason why he came to the audition is just a good salary, hoping to help his friend's company continue to survive. Unexpectedly, Lance took a fancy to him and chose him to play one of the most important roles in the script: Xiaodouzi after adulthood.
After Xiaodouzi grew up, he became more and more lawless. He was ruthless and hard-hearted, and gradually became a tyrant in the city of God. Later, he changed his name to Xiaobawang. Overwhelmed the greatest power in this god-forsaken city and established his own empire.
The scene that is being filmed now is an important turning point for Xiaobawang on the road to domination. He gave up the small business of street robbery, and on the way to accept the drug/drug trafficking business, he eliminated several forces by means of thunder. And wiped out one of the most entrenched drug sales outlets on his own territory.
Xiaobawang broke into this sales point directly, and took the territory into his pocket with a sweeping gesture. In addition to Xiaobawang, several main characters such as Benny, Pao, and Heizi all appeared in this scene. This is not a difficult scene, but in Lance's conception, this scene But it was done in one go, so the requirements for details are very strict.
Lance hopes to explain this drug sales point as a place where the story takes place, telling the origin of this drug/drug sales point, from the very beginning when the first person sells drugs here, to the end The succession of a self-employed Heizi, the appearance of A Pao, and the snatching of Xiaobawang and Benny. The entire long history is condensed in this one room, and the history of drugs in the City of God is told in a novel way, and at the same time, it shows the impact on the City of God during the passage of time.
And the scene that is being filmed now is the ending scene, and it is the only scene that will slow down and show every detail. In addition, other scenes will be connected in series by means of montage. Therefore, the importance of this scene is self-evident.
During the filming just now, Leonardo couldn't remember his lines. To be precise, the words were very awkward and blunt, which made the whole scene fragmented. Alexander Rodriguez, who played the role of A Pao, was also affected. Even though there was no problem with the lines, his eyes were very dull, and he could not see any anger.
Lance thought about it carefully, Leonardo was not a professional actor in the first place, and reciting large lines was indeed not his forte, and the conflict in this scene did not need to be further exaggerated by lines, it was more to show the kind of precariousness The turmoil in it conveys the sense of history and shaking that have changed within thirty years. So maybe it would have been wiser to let Leonardo ditch his lines.
Looking at Leonardo with a puzzled look in front of him, Lance continued, "You know what the bully is doing in this scene, right?" Leonardo nodded, but Lance shook his head , "Say what you think."
Leonardo hesitated for a moment, subconsciously looked at Alexander who was standing aside, and cast his eyes for help, but Alexander didn't say anything, but just looked at Lance unswervingly. Only then did Leonardo speak intermittently, "Xiaobawang... came to take over the land. After taking over the land, he will be the biggest drug dealer in this area."
Lance nodded in affirmation, "So, how did you take over the site before?"
Lance's affirmation made Leonardo regain a little bit of confidence, "Pistol?" He said hesitantly, Lance did not affirm or deny, "He directly threatened with a pistol, and shot if he was not convinced, willing to bow his head hand over the territory." This time Lance nodded slightly, and Leonardo became more confident, "Absolutely not soft-hearted, he is the real boss here!"
Lance's eyes flickered slightly, and he continued, "Remember, sometimes you can't let it go without raising your hands~www.readwn.com~ You need Liwei, you have to let them know that you are not joking, You can shoot whenever you want."
Leonardo suddenly realized, "So I shot Hei Zai."
Unknowingly, Leonardo's personal pronoun changed from "he" to "I". Under the guidance of Lance, he has gradually entered the role.
"So, you broke in now, and Hei Zi is selling marijuana here, what will you do?" Lance struck while the iron was hot, and didn't let Hayden turn on the camera, and directly let Leonardo enter the state.
Leonardo turned his head to look at Hei Zai who was standing aside, "Hand over the business here, you are finished now!" Leonardo lost the panic just now at all, and his whole person suddenly became airy, As he spoke, he took a step forward and walked forward.
Lance gave Phellipe-Haagensen a look—he plays Benny, Beanie's best friend growing up. Philip was stunned, but Alexander mouthed, "Stop him, stop him!" Then Philip realized, and quickly grabbed Leonardo, "Don't kill him, he understands! Right, Hei Zi ?”
Leonardo shook his head, he laughed, and directly pulled the trigger—just aimed at Hei Zai’s calf. After the sound of the gun—a prop pistol—his voice sounded, “Forgive me One life, but you're going to work for us, understand?"
The unhesitating decisiveness of killing burst out in an instant. Although all the lines are not written in Lance's script, the effect has far exceeded expectations~www.readwn.com~Welcome all readers to visit and read, the latest, fastest and hottest serial works are all here~www.readwn.com~ readwn.com~Mobile phone users please go to read.
