"Gu Yi, why are you here?"
"Thankfully, I thought you were the delivery boy just now. You hid it well enough!"
"Hahaha, isn't this just to give you a surprise?" Gu Yi took off his mask and hat and said with a smile.
"Hey, I really didn't expect you to come. Why didn't you tell me that you were coming? You even teamed up with the director to lie to me. I still have makeup on my face. If I knew you were coming, I would take off the makeup and put it on again. One is ready.”
Yu Xue was indeed wearing makeup at this time, because he had just finished filming a big scene, his face was injured, and his clothes were stained with blood, and he looked a little embarrassed.
"No need to change, that's good. I haven't seen the battle-damaged version of you yet."
"Why haven't you seen it? You have forgotten that you used extremely cruel methods to kill me, a young female college student." Yu Xue pretended to be angry, "Okay, you, you can actually forget such a thing, break up the relationship!"
"No, no, how can it be the same?? You were too badly damaged in the battle at that time, but now you are just fine."
Gu Yi praised seriously.
Just then the director came over.
"Okay, stop flirting, I can't stand it anymore. How long do you plan to stay when Teacher Gu Yi comes this time? Do you want to make a cameo in our play?"
"I just came over to take a look. After all, I have never filmed a costume drama and I can still study at the same time."
"That's no problem. If you have anything you want to ask, feel free to ask. But Teacher Gu Yi, please stay with us for a meal at noon and follow us for a look in the afternoon. It just so happens that we have many actors here who feel that they are not good at acting as villains. I want to ask you for advice."
"Don't take it seriously." Gu Yi knew that the director was being polite to him.
So Gu Yi stayed here to eat a box lunch with everyone at noon, and then chatted with Yu Xue for a while during the break.
Gu Yi was watching from the side during the afternoon filming.
"Yu Xue's martial arts scenes were shot really well. The movements looked smooth and powerful."
When the director heard this, he also laughed and said: "Yes, she is a dancer. She learns things very quickly. She can often learn it after a few lessons from a martial arts instructor. She has never used a stand-in from the beginning to the end. This little girl I can endure hardship."
But after saying that, he asked again: "How about it? Do you want to play a role?"
Gu Yi felt a little itchy while watching the crowd filming.
Because he has had a martial arts dream since he was a child, dreaming of becoming a hero. Of course, this is only one of his dreams. Other dreams include becoming a scientist, astronaut, Ultraman, etc...
"Okay, but the director just needs to arrange a supporting role for me, preferably one that dies shortly after the appearance."
"It's easy to say. Now there is a character who is the leader of the Qingcheng faction. He is considered a big boss and has a few actions in the camera. How about you play it?"
"If I played this, then the actor who originally played this..."
"That's easy to say, can't I arrange something else for him later? Originally, he played the role of the leader of the Qingcheng faction, and he only had a few actions and no lines. When the time comes, I will give him two more lines as compensation, and he will definitely be willing."
"That's okay." Gu Yi nodded.
However, after filming the scene, he still asked the director to help find the other party to talk about it.
When the big man heard that Gu Yi wanted to play his role and that the director would give him a role with lines later, he happily agreed.
After all, the price is different if there are lines and if there are no lines.
There are lines, and every word is worth every word.
After the negotiation, Gu Yi immediately went to put on makeup and change clothes.
After changing, the director directly arranged for the action director of the play to guide the movements.
Sometimes there are several directors in a play. In addition to the general director who is responsible for all matters, some larger production crews also have theatrical directors who specialize in directing the actors' literary performances. If there are a lot of action scenes in the play, there will also be Dedicated to an action director, or action director.
Action directors usually come with a team, because some scenes require some martial arts skills, and these actions cannot be done by just recruiting extra actors, and some require martial arts stand-ins for the actors.
And they also have a position above them called martial arts director, that is, after the action director designs the actors' movements, their martial arts directors will teach the actors one by one and practice the suits with the actors.
These martial arts instructors are generally apprentices of movement instructors.
"Gu Yi, the leader of the Qingcheng Sect you play is a swordsman. He will have to fight Yu Xue alone later. He will be wiped off his neck after about seven or eight moves, so I will teach you how to do these moves first. "
Gu Yi nodded.
"Then I'll thank you, Master."
"You're welcome, but you have to study hard. If you can't learn it, I'll go to the director and ask for a replacement."
"no problem."
Gu Yi then took the prop sword and started learning from the director.
Learn the moves first, and the action guide will constantly tell Gu Yi what points to pay attention to in these moves.
For example, the body should not be too stiff, but it should not be too relaxed, and at the same time, it should not use too much force when showing a sense of strength.
Because Yu Xue's kung fu is the best in this drama. If a supporting actor can make Yu Xue's sword fly, then what's the point of acting?
Gu Yi had practiced martial arts boxing and wrestling in the army before, and had also learned dance before. Although he was only half-experienced, with such a foundation, he could still learn seven or eight sword moves.
So after about half an hour, Gu Yi was able to satisfy the action director.
"The next step is the routine. I'll practice it with you first."
After the action director finished speaking, he started to fight with Gu Yiguo.
After another half hour or so, Gu Yi had mastered the tricks, so the other party called Yu Xue over to practice with Gu Yi.
"I learned it very quickly. It took me three days to learn this set of moves." Yu Xue said.
"I definitely can't compete with you in terms of difficulty. You were spinning around and flying in the sky. I only jumped once and turned around once, and the rest were all ground moves."
"That's amazing too...look at the sword!"
As Yu Xue attacked again, Gu Yi quickly responded.
While doing the trick, Gu Yi suddenly felt a strange feeling in his heart.
"It turns out that this is what it feels like to shoot a martial arts scene. Although the action is a bit lacking, it is quite enjoyable."
Both the original owner Gu Yi and the traveler Gu Yi liked to use a stick to mow the grass in the wild grass when they were young.
In other words, few boys can resist a long stick that is straight and smooth in the hand.
"You killed my whole family, and I will pay for it with your blood today!"
"Oh, a junior student dares to speak arrogant words, so you can stay here today!"
"Ah! How do you know...the secret skill of Tianshan Sect..."
In the afternoon, Gu Yi followed the crew and filmed three times in total. The director also specially added a few words to Gu Yi.
After filming this scene, Gu Yi said goodbye to everyone and left after receiving 1,000 yuan in salary. In the car, he called Song Fuxing directly.
"Brother Song, wait until I give it a try. After that, help me keep an eye out for any TV series or movies that focus on action scenes."
"Why do you suddenly want to take pictures of this?"
"Hi, I accidentally took a small job today and filmed a short action scene. It felt really good, so I wanted to find a chance to film it all at once."
