In fact, many scenes can be completed by relying on acting skills. Being completely involved in the play is an extremely rare experience that can only be encountered. Once you enter this state, emotions, lines, including the scheduling required by the director and the stimulation of the actors, are completely integrated, and everything presented is completely a subconscious reaction.
Zhou Xun was obviously completely involved in the drama from the beginning, and finally brought himself into it, which shocked Li Tang.
To be honest, apart from Zhou Xun's face, which looks a bit pleasant, other aspects are not in his aesthetic point of view. Short stature, short legs, skinny skin, etc. There are a lot of shortcomings to list, and they are not his cup of tea at all.
However, at that moment, he felt lost and actually enjoyed it. Fortunately, he acted very quickly and braked in time.
Li Tang glanced at Zhou Xun, who was still twitching, and was worried that she was too deep into the scene and couldn't get out. Because you are too deep into the drama and cannot get out of the drama, it usually gives your subconscious a wrong hint. This kind of wrong suggestion is very fatal. If you feel that you are real in the play, and the emotions and lovers in the play are real, it is very easy to fake the play.
In his previous life, when he was on Broadway, this situation was common. Compared with movies shot in fragments, it is easier for actors to get involved in a coherent stage performance. Then they spend all day with a good-looking person of the opposite sex. It is normal for something to happen. Of course, it is inevitable to pretend to be in a drama to seek excitement.
In this environment, as a handsome boy, if you want to learn to protect yourself, you must quickly get into and out of drama.
Entering and exiting a play is a science. The simplest way to enter a play is to enter the play vicariously. The actor will try to understand the character's mood and think about what I would do if the same thing as this character happened around me. Then put it into the character to find the similarities and differences.
For example, there is a sentence in the script: "He raised his hand and wanted to touch her, but after a long time, he put his hand down, and a trace of loneliness flashed across his eyes." The actor has to think about why he is lonely? Why put down your hands? Get a feel for why the character does certain things.
Try more and ask yourself why, separate your real self from the role, you are yourself, the role is the role, don't stupidly listen to "human and drama are one", so that you can quickly perform the show.
Zhou Xun is undoubtedly a very good actor. She has no systematic training and is very talented. Her so-called understanding of performance may have been accumulated in actual combat, but the more such an actor is, the easier it is for her to be indistinguishable from others.
"Hey, are you okay?" Li Tang took out two tissues and handed them to her.
"Oh it's all right."
Zhou Xun looked up at him, took the tissue with a blush, and whispered: "Thank you!"
Li Tang sat down next to her and touched his pockets, but found nothing.
Zhou Xun grinned when he saw this, barely showing a smile and said: "He's here with me."
As she spoke, she stood up, took her small bag, and took out the cigarettes and lighter inside.
Take two puffs of cigarette and let your emotions gradually calm down.
"You were so fierce just now, you scared me." Li Tang tried to smile.
"Yeah, sorry about that."
Zhou Xun chuckled twice, his tone was perfunctory, but he lowered his head.
After a moment of silence, she suddenly looked up at Li Tang: "If you were a motor, would you do this?"
"Haha, definitely not. Who would dare to do anything illegal?" Li Tang looked relaxed.
This is the thinking of a rational adult. The environment Ma Da is in and the way he behaves can only be said that he does not understand, does not understand the law, does not understand love, and is too loyal.
"I...I think Mudan is quite stupid, but, what can she do?"
Zhou Xun was a little stuttering, but there was sadness in his big red eyes.
Li Tang couldn't bear to look directly, his eyes wandered, and he said forcefully: "She is too young to understand."
"That's why I said she was stupid...but she is very brave."
"..."
Is Peony brave?
The story is always very romantic.
Li Tang felt that he couldn't continue talking. When he saw Lou Ye sitting in the corner discussing something with Wang Yu, he felt inexplicably irritable and asked loudly: "Director, has this been passed?"
…
After this scene, Zhou Xun seemed to have cheated and got better and better. Li Tang almost couldn't catch it several times and could only rely on facial paralysis and Ma Da's cold personality to survive.
Fortunately, Lou Ye didn't grind it over and over again like before. Although 16mm film was much cheaper than 35mm film, the reality did not allow him to continue to make it like this.
Li Tang originally thought that the story of Ma Da and Mu Dan would end when Mu Dan jumped off the Waibaidu Bridge. But Lou Ye came up with another story like magic.
Mada was thrown into prison for participating in the kidnapping, and many years had passed when he came out. But he still missed Peony, and took the opportunity of delivering goods to inquire about Peony. Once when I was drinking in a bar, I accidentally bumped into the girl who was playing the role of a mermaid in the bar. She looked very much like Peony.
At this time, Zhou Xun dyed her hair, put on heavy makeup, put on a wig, and transformed into a mermaid. She played two roles. Peony was over and Meimei was online.
She has a small frame. In the movie, the character she plays, Meimei, often wears a small suspender with unknown stuff inside. It is an emerald green tight skirt that looks a little sexy when twisted, making the dull Ma Da occasionally get distracted. .
One day it was rare that there was no night show, and work ended early in the afternoon. Zhou Xun suddenly said: "Let's go sing tonight!"
Li Tang looked disdainful. She still sings with her duck voice?
But when he heard that Zhou Xun could actually sing in a bar in the capital for two hundred yuan a song, he couldn't help but open his mouth.
Her voice is indeed unique, with a clear husky quality. But after all, Li Tang had seriously studied vocal music in school, and he could still find a lot of problems from a purely technical perspective, such as air leakage when singing, poor voice closure, etc.
But when she sang Beyond's "Really Love You" to him, the ambiguous emotions and the deep affection in his eyes made Li Tang fall into a trance. He only remembered that he drank a lot of wine that night.
Of course, the following story is not as bloody as expected, after all, many people came to drink and sing that night.
To be honest, Zhou Xun is really suitable as a friend. She is enthusiastic, cheerful, straightforward and emotional. We can smoke together, drink together, sing together, communicate without barriers, and even express our feelings to each other.
But if we talk about being a girlfriend...
Li Tang thought about it and let it go. After all, in addition to spiritual things, he seemed to care more about visual, tactile and other sensory needs.
In mid-June, all the main shots were finally shot, leaving only some empty shots and the unfinished shots that Lou Ye wanted to take to show the dirty and smelly Suzhou River and the people who spent their lives here.
The crew ran out of money, and the one million they had previously invested, including the hundreds of thousands that Nai'an had paid in advance for the TV series, were all gone.
That's right, Nai'an took on a TV series called "One Day as a Couple, 100 Days of Grace", co-starring with the very popular hardcore Xiaosheng Xiaosheng Gao Shuguang, and has now left the crew. As for what he said about helping Li Tang take on martial arts films, there is obviously no further progress.
To complete these shots, including post-production, there was still about a dozen or two hundred thousand left, and Lou Ye was really at his wits end.
Li Tang actually had more than 20,000 US dollars and 60,000 to 70,000 yuan in savings, but he would not be stupid enough to tell Lou Ye: "I have money, I invested."
After all, this is all his net worth, and art films are too risky, and he doesn't dare to take risks.
"Brother Ye, if you don't care about me, just give me the motorcycle." Li Tang said, looking at Lou Ye who looked sad.
Lou Ye shook his head: "I don't need a few dollars from you. You can just ride the motorcycle."
Yao Anlian bought this old Harley from his friend for 2,000 yuan. Shanghai has very strict regulations on motorcycles. This kind of motorcycle without photos is not allowed on the road at all, and it is more than ten years old. At this age, it is not worth much money at all. After the movie is made, it will probably be sold as scrap metal.
"No, let's convert it into the salary, and the rest will be treated as if I treat everyone to a meal." Li Tang said hurriedly.
Even though Lou Ye said he would give you a few bucks, Li Tang knew that he might not be able to even treat him to a wedding banquet now. He couldn't help with big money, but he could still pay with small money.
