Chapter 112, the first experience of shooting
He Ye had already done the filming.
Because in fact the whole story is not complicated, the scenery required is ordinary urban scenery, and the location chosen is Shacheng.
After Gan Yuan and He Ye acted together several times, they gradually got a feeling of being in the role.
On September 5, the crew held a very formal opening ceremony in Shacheng, and Gan Yuan finally met the other leading actor, Liu Xiyu.
Liu Xiyu is a serious student from a prestigious university. He graduated from the China Film Academy and is a top student in the academy, ranking first in graduation.
However, he has been tepid since graduation. He has filmed several movies, but he was a hit but not a hit.
It wasn't until last year that I participated in a variety show on Hunan Satellite TV and met He Ye, and made a movie on He Ye's recommendation, finally becoming famous.
So as soon as He Ye invited him this time, he immediately agreed.
He is not very old. Like Gan Yuan, he is 24 years old. Both of them are at the right age for filming this movie.
But in terms of acting skills, Liu Xiyu is at least much more formal than Gan Yuan.
Although Gan Yuan studied acting for more than a month, he did not have much time to study first, and the learning was only targeted learning. Although he had the bonus of learning talent at the time, Gan Yuan also knew that he still needed to improve his performance.
Learn a lot.
Fortunately, this is an opportunity to exercise.
The heroine's name is Yu Weiwei. She is 26 years old. Gan Yuan happened to have seen Dong Yiyuan chasing her in a TV series before. Her acting skills can only be said to be passable, but she is very popular.
But there is a role of a teaching director in the script, and this role is very famous.
The actor is Li Han, a true acting master who has won the Best Actor award in major domestic awards many times.
He Ye told Gan Yuan that in fact, this role did not require such high acting skills. In fact, inviting him to come here was to give some guidance on performance to these still immature directors and actors.
The relationship between Li Han and He Ye is still very good. They have known each other for more than ten years, so they came to help He Ye fulfill his wish.
Originally, He Ye wanted to hire Huang Xin for this movie role. After all, Li Han's role was not suitable for him, but Li Han himself came to the door, and He Ye couldn't refuse.
These five people are actually the five people who have the biggest roles in the play.
On the first day of shooting, everything actually didn't go smoothly.
Although the crew is actually a very mature crew, the first scene was filmed by He Ye himself.
As a movie that has been saved for ten years, written, directed and starred in, He Ye may not have said that he has any ambitions at the box office, but he must have the image in his heart.
Therefore, he has always been dissatisfied with the results. Every time he looks at the results, he shakes his head.
Therefore, the first scene alone was filmed more than ten times, but it has not yet been filmed.
Even the good-tempered He Ye was a little over the top at this time.
He has ideas in his mind, but why does the photographed thing always fall short of what he wants?
Especially since I’m also acting on it!
"Let's take a rest first."
He still called a timeout and sat down, hoping to figure out what went wrong.
Seeing He Ye's appearance, Gan Yuan wanted to comfort him, but didn't know how to deal with it, so he could only sit down and stare at Liu Xiyu.
The two were of the same age, but they had quite a good conversation.
While chatting, they suddenly saw Li Han walking towards He Ye. Liu Xiyu handed Gan Yuan a message. Gan Yuan understood immediately, and the two quietly moved to a position where they could overhear.
Li Han took a bottle of mineral water in his hand and handed it to He Ye.
He Ye looked up first, and when he saw it was him, he forced a smile.
"I'm sorry, Lao Li, I'm a rookie director. I wasted so much time on you and everyone else."
Li Han said with a smile: "You are making yourself public when you say this."
"If you hadn't helped everyone so much, how could there be so many people willing to waste your time now?"
Gan Yuan and Liu Xiyu nodded repeatedly.
Li Han smiled: "Actually, I think everyone did a pretty good job in the first few scenes, especially the two boys. It looked like they had studied the script carefully."
"I'm not surprised about Liu Xiyu, he is a professional after all, but the performance of that young man named Gan Yuan really surprised me."
"But why do you always feel something is wrong?"
He Ye was also stunned.
Yes, the two boys obviously performed well, not to mention myself, but why did I always feel that something was wrong?
Li Han hit the key point instantly.
"Because you have a composition in your mind!"
He Ye was stunned for a moment. He had already figured out how to shoot. Wouldn't it be better to shoot?
Li Han explained: "If you just have a rough idea, of course it is beneficial."
"But you have been preparing this book for so long, ten years, that you even have a very real portrait in your mind."
"But this thing only exists in your mind, others can't see it!"
"You can show what you imagine, but other actors will only show what they think is most appropriate, including the background, picture, and lighting, which cannot be exactly what you imagined."
"That's why you feel something is wrong."
"But you can't tell what's wrong specifically, right?"
"Actually, what's wrong is that it's actually different from the pattern in your mind, so you think it's wrong."
He Ye suddenly realized.
The two eavesdroppers nearby also nodded repeatedly.
In fact, Gan Yuan and Liu Xiyu thought it was good several times, but He Ye always felt it was wrong.
And he didn't have the ability of a great director to train actors and make Gan Yuan and Liu Xiyu perform the scenes he wanted. As a result, the filming progress became increasingly unsatisfactory.
But He Ye is a person who is very good at listening to other people's opinions.
"Then what should I do? Delete all these images in my mind?"
Li Han shook his head: "That's not necessary, it's your own idea."
"At least the entire film must be framed in your mind, but the only things used for reference are the overall frame, structure, rhythm and scenery."
"You have to tell the actors what it feels like to perform based on your ideas, but don't force the actors to perform how they must."
"As for how to act, I can give you some tips."
He Ye's eyes suddenly lit up.
He was a little depressed just now, but at this moment he became energetic and started shouting with a small trumpet.
"Come on, come on! Let's do one more and one more!"
"It was my problem just now, and it wasted everyone's time! But there will definitely be no problem this time, let's try to get it over with!"
Director Gao Yican said with a smile: "We just haven't warmed up yet! This time we will definitely get over it once and for all!"
Everyone once again mustered up the motivation to start filming. Who would have thought that this scene, which had been stuck for an hour, was really over in one go!
With He Ye's "Cut!"
Chapter completed!
