It's not that Yin Lian has never worn ancient costumes, but most of the costumes she's worn before were real costumes.
The meaning of true ancient costume is that it is not a carefully designed TV drama costume made using modern technology, but really the kind of costume produced in the farming era. Even the royal nobles only have a few sets of clothes per season, and there is no ready-made clothing for sale at all. It is also a garment that takes a long time and consumes a lot of manpower.
But the clothes in the TV series are different.
Xia Guo's TV series are quite particular about costumes. In a martial arts film like this, the costumes may not necessarily restore ancient times, but the overall design is absolutely exquisite. The fineness of the production may not be as high as that of ancient masterpieces embroidered stitch by stitch, but in terms of design, it is definitely more elegant, brighter, more elegant, and in layman's terms, more fairy-like.
The character using the image of Yin Lian is not a little fairy character in terms of setting, but more like a little witch. The costume style is also in the direction of a little witch, which can be said to be full of evil spirit. But even so, in order to make the most of Yin Lian's skin, the director still tried his best to give her various opportunities to perform.
Yin Lian had seen it when she went to the scene before. Most of the looks prepared by the director for the female lead were very bright skirts, except for a few special scenes that had a strong style and a strong symbolic meaning of black floor-length skirts. , most other daily skirts are mainly red gauze skirts, bright yellow skirts and the like.
But when she first appeared on the stage, she saw that the heroine was not wearing the bright dresses she had seen before, but a snow-white floor-length skirt that looked more like a nightgown. The shell is also full of fairy spirit.
When this episode was actually filmed, I felt that the plot was quite different from the script Yin Lian had seen before. But this is actually something that Yin Lian expected, because in the process of filming film and television dramas, many times the script will be changed accordingly according to the actual shooting situation.
When Yin Lian read the script, the heroine was the daughter of the former leader of the Demon Cult and the sister of the current leader. The male protagonist is the son of Meng Tianyi, a hero in the world of martial arts. At the beginning of the story, the hero Meng Tianyi was massacred all over his family, which aroused the anger of all the sects in the world. After investigation, a group of his friends determined that this was the crime of the Demon Cult, and received information that the leader of the Demon Cult would regularly visit Xizhou every spring and March. A certain person set a trap on the road, and finally ambushed him in Fuhu Mountain after paying many lives, which also opened the prelude to the whole story.
Yin Lian's shell only appeared briefly during this process.
Different from the overall fast pace of the first episode, in every tense plot, the girls are like the comparison group of the entire plot.
She escaped from the maid's guard and slipped out of the bamboo house. Wandering on the hills and paths, shaking her head and acting cute, the wind and snow were blowing outside, and the swords were flashing, but she seemed to be stepping on the frozen time step by step. The years were quiet around her, and she was waiting for one person wholeheartedly.
It's just that the person she's waiting for will never come.
Apart from the fact that the female protagonist who appeared on the screen looked like herself, which made Yin Lian feel a bit out of place, Yin Lian felt that the drama was still very interesting. The pace was appropriate, the characters were vivid and the plot was tight. Although it was a commercial film, it also brought Xia Xia to the stage. Chinese directors have a unique and ubiquitous literary and artistic atmosphere that is just right and suitable for both refined and popular tastes.
If I have to describe it, the heroine's performance technique in this section is very similar to the performance technique of the girl in red in "Schindler's List", but it is more straightforward and easy to understand, and not as high-style as that movie.
It is a level of literature and art that commercial films can control.
In fact, this level of expression has had a great response among the audience. Yin Lian can see that the social board in the class has almost been exploded by his own people. Many people are discussing this drama and The role of the heroine.
"Is this girl based on the beautiful girl in our class? The one who never refuses anyone who comes when called, and doesn't chase anyone who leaves?"
"You actually know her ID?"
"I've been following her for a long time, but unfortunately she doesn't usually participate in activities or speak on forums often!"
"I haven't been able to observe her up close, and she's a bit defensive. I didn't expect her to be so beautiful on the big screen. It's simply shocking."
"What are you talking about? Is that girl a real person? Or is she from our school? How is that possible!?"
"If she's not a real person, is she still a fake? Her face is so natural. You can tell she is a natural beauty at a glance."
"It's hard to believe that you said you grew up with that kind of appearance, okay?"
However, it is still a literature and art school, so not everyone only cares about Yin Lian's appearance. Soon everyone also began to discuss the plot arrangement and filming techniques.
"The shots of that girl were really well done. There was just the right amount of movement and stillness."
"Hey, why did I hear that the heroine is another one?"
"That is old news of yours. I don't know where it came from. The rumors were already refuted during the official announcement. The heroine is the eldest lady of the Demon Sect."
"Although there are only a few scenes, those scenes are really the highlights of the first episode. Old Man Bai's action scenes were well shot. I didn't expect that this drama's literary and artistic style would be so flavorful. I'm so excited!"
“Is it the beautiful girl or the shooting technique that attracts my heart?”
"Why are they so clearly distinguished? The two are inherently one. Although the beautiful girl is beautiful, the story needs to be brought out with the right lens. On the other hand, if she hadn't been so beautiful, these shots wouldn't have been possible. There is such a good effect. It can only be said that they complement each other."
There are also posts speculating about how much Yin Lian’s shell is worth.
"Just the lonely expression at the beginning, at least the level of 100."
"The picture is like a frame every minute and every second. At this level, I don't think 200 frames is too much."
A group of people were arguing over it, and some people even guessed it was five hundred, but this was the highest level of speculation, and it was refuted by many other people. As for seven hundred or eight hundred, no one even mentioned it, let alone the final one. The high-end one costs a thousand.
After arguing like this for a while, someone went directly to check the official database and posted a screenshot.
A group of people were shocked.
"one thousand!?"
"How can it be?"
"Is there any newcomer whose image license has been granted a thousand dollars so far?"
"I know it's impossible even if I think about it!"
"I also think the price is exaggerated."
"What do you know? The most expensive image of Goddess Lu Hanqiu so far is the image she recorded when she was twenty-five years old, and it only costs 800 yuan per minute! I admit that she is indeed very good-looking, but the new image authorization directly topped the list. This Isn’t it really the joke of the century?”
There was a lot of discussion on the Internet, and the news quickly spread from the academy, causing a lot of discussion. Although this enthusiasm was not intentional, it was the right time and the right place. Under this situation, some of the film and television works that had previously rented Yin Lian's image could no longer bear it anymore and officially announced the selection of their own characters. One of the films with the fastest progress released its first trailer just sixteen hours later.
This movie is also performed by a queen-level actor, and the heroine is Yin Lian. The story is adapted from a famous series of detectives. The heroine in it is wearing a school uniform-style suit skirt, white shirt, and red plaid. She looks youthful and full of youth, but is actually closer to Yin Lian's own image. The sight of running in the Universe Library made many people unable to take their eyes away the moment they saw it. They were confused by the composition of the girl in red dress looking back under the huge door.
In addition to this, the other two films released basically also released stills. One is an interstellar war (love) story, telling the love and hatred between two powerful interstellar races, and the story of the male and female protagonists falling in love and killing each other. A lifetime, and the other is a time-travel drama.
Among the former, Yin Lian is the queen in disguise. Among the latter, Yin Lian is a wanderer.
As a heavyweight masterpiece, "Dream Bearer" remained motionless amid this commotion and always moved forward at its own pace. It had no intention of announcing the news in advance, otherwise it would cause even greater waves.
Regardless, this is compelling enough.
Because of this incident, Yin Lian was still somewhat affected at school. Although she could refuse any social request or set herself invisible, it was inconvenient after all.
But since I have taken the money, it is natural to endure this level of inconvenience.
Even if you are invisible during class, you still have to be visible to the instructor. The teacher couldn't help but laughed at her and said, "It's not easy for you to come to class now as if you were a thief. Just bear with it for the time being and wait for the discussion to pass."
Yin Lian was very tolerant and said, "It's fine if I have the money. If I sell a few more licenses, I can invest in a commercial masterpiece myself. This trouble is nothing."
The instructor liked her attitude very much, but he still said: "But don't really invest. At your current level, it's still early for you to be able to shoot commercial works. And when you really want to start, shoot some experimental ones first." Practice your skills with movies. The money is easy to come by, so don’t spend it too lavishly - beauty may not be maintained forever, and the income from image licensing is also very unstable."
This was all pertinent advice. Yin Lian heard it and knew that the instructor had good intentions, so he did not refute it. Instead, he nodded solemnly and listened.
She asked the other party about June Dream and the filming of the film.
When the instructor heard that she was going to make a film, she originally wanted to persuade her. But then she heard that it was an entry for June Dream, so she did not persuade her. Instead, she encouraged her and gave her the website address to purchase different materials and hire various extras. .
"Generally speaking, actors for student contestants will go to these websites to hire at low prices. Most of them are interns or amateur actors. If the financial situation is better, you can also go to these websites, which are a gathering place for independent film actors. This website is a website for accepting orders for older but not famous professional actors. The advantage is that they have rich experience, but the disadvantage is that they generally have no spirituality, and because they are older, they only want to support their families. , most of them have lost their ambitions..."
"Many students generally like to look at resumes and works to select people, but Yin Lian, the teacher tells you to be honest, if you want to choose actors, it is best to choose them in person. If you can have a chat, the result of one sentence may be completely different. It’s different. If you can chat for half an hour, then you will have an understanding of his background, personality, preferences, and ideas. And this kind of understanding cannot be obtained through text and screen images.”
Yin Lian nodded and carefully wrote down the instructor's advice.
