Liping had a headache. As a mainland director, if he had to choose, he would definitely prefer Zhang Chu's acting style.
Although it is still very immature, it is relaxed, natural and natural.
But the problem is that the screenwriter of this drama is Aunt Qiong Yao from Baodao, and the company is also owned by Qiong Yao's film and television company.
There are also several actors from Taiwan in the crew. From the first part, the overall performance style of this drama has a flavor of Wanliwan style.
Mainland actors can only try to adapt and act according to other people's styles.
Look at Zhao Wei, who was the top candidate in the Beijing Film Academy's art exam back then. Now he cries whenever he wants and makes trouble whenever he wants.
Sometimes, Liping couldn't help but wonder, if Cui Xinqin knew that her favorite disciple was trained like this, would he come over with a knife to kill people.
Now there is another alien in the crew, which is really eye-catching.
"Director Li!"
Liping looked at Zhang Chu in front of him and didn't know what to do.
To be honest, Zhang Chu's performance just now surprised him. He thought that in the first scene, a newcomer like Zhang Chu would be in constant trouble. If he could finish this scene in one morning, it would be considered good.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Chu not only performed the performance smoothly, but also handled some details that made his eyes light up.
However, no matter how good the acting is, the styles are not unified, and it feels like everyone is playing their own way. That is to say, Zhou Jie adjusted in time and kept consistent with Zhang Chu, so that the whole scene would not be too abrupt.
"Zhang Chu, you... better see how they act first."
Liping didn't know what to say. Zhang Chu's performance was right, and some of the reactions he should have were in line with the characteristics of Xiao Jian.
You can't say that you are a genius and your acting is so good that you have killed everyone else. Now you have to lower your standards and accommodate others.
Just let Zhang Chu look at it for himself, see what the difference is, and try to see if he can adjust it.
After saying that, he asked the photographer to take over the footage he just took.
"How is she?"
A square face suddenly appeared on the monitor screen, with a mouth where even the back molars could be seen.
After reading the script, Zhang Chu felt that the biggest unsolved mystery in the whole story was not that the emperor wandered around outside and gave birth to an illegitimate daughter.
It’s not like he unexpectedly met a goddaughter who was born in the city and married his own son as a princess.
The biggest unsolved mystery is why Hanxiang likes Meng Dan, a selfish, irritable and irritable second B.
"With all the trouble you've been having lately, probably no one has the mood to take care of Hanxiang! However, I have to remind you that you are both right and don't completely forget about us!"
Do you think this is also spoken in human language?
They risked the crime of beheading to help him steal the emperor's wife and cuckold their own father, father-in-law and father-in-law.
He actually dislikes others for being too slow in doing things!
Who gave him the face?
"Believe us, we have never forgotten!"
Lin Xinru's eyes were full of sincerity, but she didn't feel any guilt at all.
"In the past two days, Hanxiang has been in a very bad mood. I see that her face looks strange, as if she is worried. I think she is also very sad on this kind of day!"
Say something and nod your head, which seems to increase your sincerity.
Sifangtou jumped up when he heard this, his expression distorted: "Let me enter the palace again!"
With such a loud voice, I was afraid that others would not hear me.
Thinking that the palace is your hut, you can have sex as often as you want, whenever you want.
"Sit down! Don't draw attention to yourself!" Su Youpeng's eyes widened and he looked panicked.
"I am your master, am I not?"
Sifang Tou looked at Xiao Yanzi again, grinning widely and crying.
When Zhang Chu saw this scene, he felt like he was constipated and had goosebumps all over his body.
"Is it difficult for you to invite your master into the palace? How about I go into the palace to be your master and teach you martial arts anytime and anywhere?"
Little Yanzi opened her eyes wide and rolled around, which should be a sign of heartbeat.
"No! No! Don't use this idea, little Yanzi. Last time I mentioned to the emperor that we invite guards from outside the palace, but the emperor vetoed it! You get a master to go in. It's strange that the emperor doesn't thoroughly investigate his origins!"
When Zhou Jie said this line, her nostrils opened and closed in conjunction with her mouth, which was very rhythmic.
At this time, Fan Bingbing felt his presence and frowned: "That's right! That's right! It's already scary enough now. If Meng Dan also goes in, it will become more and more complicated, and everyone will be even more worried!"
With such a simple sentence, Fan Bingbing showed seven or eight emotions, including nervousness, anxiety, worry, and uneasiness, all displayed through his expressions.
"I can't care so much, I'm about to explode!"
Square Face roared.
Zhang Chu really didn’t want to continue reading.
"What do you think of their performance?"
Zhang Chu didn't answer. This question could be either minor or serious. Even if he thought those people acted poorly, he wouldn't be able to say it out loud.
Especially since Fan Bingbing was not far away and was eavesdropping with his ears pricked up. If he fired the map cannon, this girl would have to bite him.
Liping saw this and smiled: "Do you think they are all bad?"
Zhang Chu continued to remain silent, obviously he was right.
Liping did not ask any more questions, but pointed to the group of people not far away: "Zhao Wei, who played Xiao Yanzi, was grade 96 at Beijing Film Academy and ranked first in the professional examination that year. Zhou Jie, a top student in the theater, even played Jin Fan Bingbing, who is locked up, is also from Xie Jin Film and Television Acting School."
When Fan Bingbing was mentioned, the girl held her head high and looked proud.
"Do you think they don't know how to act? Or do you think they can't act?"
Zhang Chu listened. Although Liping didn't say it clearly, Zhang Chu already understood a little bit.
"This is a matter of collection and release!"
receive? put?
Seeing that Zhang Chu had listened, Liping smiled and said, "You may not understand what I'm saying. Let's do this. I'll find someone for you and let her teach you."
Who?
Liping did not say that he would not continue filming the scene where Xiao Jian and the protagonist group met, and temporarily adjusted the shooting plan to let Zhang Chu watch from the side like he had done a few days ago.
At the end of the day, Zhang Chu took off his makeup and was about to return to the guest house with the troops, but was stopped by Liping.
"Zhang Chu, come here, and...Fan Bingbing, come here too."
The two of them didn't know why, but they walked over and followed Liping out of the set. There was an old lady sitting at the door, obviously waiting for them.
"Grandma Li!"
Fan Bingbing cried out in surprise, trotted over, and gave the old lady a warm hug.
"Oh, this girl is so energetic."
The old lady smiled kindly, let go of Fan Bingbing, and turned to look at Zhang Chu.
Is this the person Liping asked to teach him?
"Is this Xiao Zhang?"
Well……
"Grandma Li..."
"Eh!"
"Teacher Li, thank you for your hard work, I will leave this boy to you!"
Liping then introduced to Zhang Chu who this Grandma Li was.
Grandma Rong!
The most evil person in the play, the protagonist is the biggest stumbling block to the palace.
I thought that the person playing this role must be a sinister-looking one, but unexpectedly she turned out to be a kind-hearted old lady.
Liping had mentioned Li Mingqi to Zhang Chu before, and also told Zhang Chu to ask Li Mingqi for advice.
But when they turned on the camera, Li Mingqi was filming another movie.
I came here just after filming was finished. I was supposed to go to the Chengde Summer Resort to meet up with Sun Shupei's team, but Liping invited me here.
After handing Zhang Chu to Li Mingqi, Liping left. The reason why he called him Fan Bingbing was because Fan Bingbing was close to Zhang Chu in the crew, so she wouldn't be a stand-in.
The three of them hadn't eaten yet, so they hit it off immediately, left the folk garden and went to a nearby restaurant.
"Listen to Director Li, don't be too strong. Tell me what you don't understand."
Li Mingqi will go to the summer resort later, and Sun Shupei's group will go over from the dam tomorrow.
What I don't understand is what Liping said about collecting and releasing.
Zhang Chu could probably guess what Liping meant, but he just couldn't grasp the degree.
"Is there anything I don't understand about this? Others in the group, including Xiao Fan, are very particular about showing off their performances. They let themselves go completely."
Indeed, whether it's Er Kang's nostril shrinking technique, or the square-headed grin, or the noisy little swallow and the cry of Ziwei, in summary, it all gives people the same feeling - let go!
Some time ago, Huang Bo brought back a magazine, which mentioned the performance methods of Hong Kong and Taiwan dramas, and a word was used in it - extremely crazy!
The same is true for this drama now. Liping, Zhou Jie, and Fan Bingbing all mentioned that the styles are unified. What is unified is the exaggerated performance method. It does not look natural at all, but it is very lively and can easily mobilize the audience. mood.
Seeing that Zhang Chu was silent, Li Mingqi asked: "Xiao Zhang, are you tired of acting like this?"
Zhang Chu nodded. He really didn't like it. Although he didn't understand acting, he felt that acting should be more natural. Although it was acting, it couldn't rely entirely on acting. If it was really just acting, wouldn't it be better to just sing?
When Li Mingqi saw Zhang Chu's reaction, he immediately understood what was going on. After decades of working as an artist, he had never met such a person.
She understood Zhang Chu's thoughts very well, and continued: "Xiao Zhang, what you want now is also one word - take it!"
Zhang Chu really felt that he should be more restrained, like the actors on the set. When performing, they grinned and had eyebrows all over their faces, which made them look awkward.
But what he didn't know was how to find a balance between closing and releasing.
"Xiao Zhang, you are right to retract and release, but if you want to be a good actor, you should be able to retract and release freely."
As Li Mingqi spoke, he stretched out his chopsticks to pick up the food in front of her. It suited her taste well.
"Every actor has his own style and understanding, but whether it is to be closed or released, it depends on whether the corresponding plot is suitable. If you are allowed to close and act, you can act well, and if you are allowed to act, , if you can’t act well, you can’t be considered a good actor!”
Zhang Chu felt that it made sense, but it seemed that his problem had not been solved yet.
"If you can't move freely, it's because you haven't reached that level yet. To put it bluntly, you are not good enough. In this case, you might as well relax more. I heard Director Li say that this is your first film. , first meet the director’s requirements, and the first lesson in acting is also to liberate your nature, so you should regard this play as a lesson to liberate your nature.”
Yes, what he was struggling with was actually being more serious with himself, which was completely unnecessary.
The old lady is right. If you can't take it back freely, you have to learn to let it go. After you let it go, if you can't take it back, it only proves that you can't be an actor, at least not a good actor.
Fan Bingbing was also fascinated by what he heard and hurriedly asked: "Grandma Li, how can you achieve the ease of retraction and retraction?"
Li Mingqi laughed when he heard this and said: "This cannot be explained clearly. Everyone has their own way of acting, and my way may not work for you. You are both still young, and it is still early to think about it. What you should do most now is one One is to figure out the role, and the other is to accumulate experience. Don’t always think of reaching the sky in one step, and being able to retract and release freely immediately. Just like what I just told Xiao Zhang, you must first learn to let go, and then try to close it after you let go. It is up to you to master this degree freely, no one can teach you how to adjust it appropriately."
Well……
Zhang Chu thought about Li Mingqi's words carefully and felt that he had wasted a meal.
