Chapter 414

During the short 40 second performance just now, the details of lanli's small movements and the changes in his eyes were really eye opening.

In other words, the inner activities of the characters will not be presented in any way, because the emotional ups and downs of the whole film are full enough, there is no need to add to the story.

But in the process of lanli's performance just now, that kind of strange, awkward, distracted, flustered, showed incisively and vividly, as if reading a cartoon. You can clearly see a dialog box on lanli's head, telling all his inner thoughts. This kind of scholar's stupidity and formality is extremely vivid.

The real peak moment is undoubtedly the last stroke of lanli's on-the-spot performance - the recorder.

In the script, there is no tape recorder. Adam just interrupts the doctor's statement and asks questions. It was nothing at all. The whole narrative was very smooth, but lanli suddenly added this sentence, which immediately doubled his joy. However, in one sentence, he outlined the simplicity and stupidity of Adam's homeboy nature.

Andrew airie, the actor who plays the doctor, is not a big hit. Most of the time, he is a guest role on the TV screen, almost without a name. But he has also been in Hollywood for 20 years, and has run countless dragon sets. He is definitely not a rookie at a loss.

But just now, Andrew was completely caught off guard by lanli's sudden on-the-spot performance, especially when he saw lanli's performance, which was easy to deal with, without any flaw. He couldn't identify whether it was acting or reality. Andrew's brain was stuck for a moment, and he couldn't remember a single line.

So, he was in the same place.

"Sorry." Andrew apologized, and lenley waved with a smile, saying he didn't care.

Today is just the third day of the production. The whole production is still in the running in period. Lenley is also fusing Adam in his brain with himself. At the same time, Langley is trying some simple comedies.

"Cancer fighting me" is indeed a comedy movie, but as Seth said before, the burden of laughing points basically falls on him, and the comedy effect of other characters is not so obvious.

However, this is a very special work. Many of the laughs come from the wisdom and cleverness of the lines. It's not the kind that makes people laugh, but a bit of "Saturday night live" style of embarrassing jokes, which makes people laugh.

This is the style that lanli is good at. Just look at his usual interviews. However, there is a slight difference between ordinary humor and acting humor. In the final analysis, the reason is that they are two different personalities. Langley is not Adam, and Adam is not Langley.

There are many different types of comedians, one of which is that, like Seth Logan, their talent is more reflected in the text - that is, writing scripts or paragraphs, so when they perform, they don't have too much deliberately funny, they basically act out their true colors, relying on the lines and the plot to collide with the funny points to entertain the audience.

In short, they are performing themselves. This is true of Seth Logan, Jonah hill, Zach Efron and others.

"Anti cancer me" story, Seth as Kyle, in fact, is basically the real life Seth, no difference.

But lanli can't. Even if he is funny, he must be funny in Adam's style, which puts forward higher requirements for performance.

Lanli knew that the most urgent task was to perform the role of Adam well. The performance style of the Methodist School required him to devote himself to it without any slackness; But it's a comedy film. Lanli doesn't want his acting style to be too rigid, too serious and too forceful, just like "buried alive", otherwise it will be too disobedient. He always wanted to try comedy, maybe this time he could try some simple ideas.

Just now the voice recorder lines, Langley is completely into Adam's state, inspiration, just said. Lanli personally thought that the effect was good, but he didn't expect that the actors in the opponent's play were stunned.

Lan Li turned to look at the director, cast a questioning line of sight, to verify the quality of the play just now.

Jonathan Levine looked around at the laughing staff, then gave blue a thumbs up and said, "good. Everything was fine just now. In fact, if you think of some lines, you are welcome to jump out at any time. We can see the effect of the performance and then decide. "

Jonathan is very young. He is only 30 years old this year. For the position of director, he is a rising star. As a comedy director with unique ideas, he has gained a lot of affirmation in the independent film circle. Besides "anti cancer me", his most well-known work is "warm corpse" released in 2013, which is an alternative zombie love movie. It is highly praised and opens the door of Hollywood for him.

Jonathan's talent is mainly reflected in the capture of details, the use of tone and light to create an atmosphere, the choice of music is often amazing, and then through the accurate control of the lens, the details of the actor's performance are presented to get the effect he wants. In short, he is a director who knows how to make full use of all resources.

Comedian's performance style is various, but few of them promote the laugh through delicate performance - after all, there is a big difference between comedy works and plot types.

After two days of running in, Jonathan found that Langley's lines are really good.

I've only heard that someone would praise an actor for his "good lines", especially an actor from the British stage. But Jonathan didn't understand what it meant until the appearance of Langley. A simple line can taste many details, especially the subtle changes in tone, often can bring unexpected comedy effect.

For example, the voice of the voice recorder just now has a strong interest, just like the tech nerd meeting at a new technology product launch. With a little inquisitive attitude in his curiosity, the endless words almost can't stop the car. The excitement and excitement can even be heard.

But after noticing the doctor's consternation, he suddenly made an emergency brake, and then his tone settled down, some flustered, some embarrassed, some astringent. The smile at the corner of his mouth has not completely disappeared, with a trace of exploration doubt. Yes, no fear, no worry, no timidity, more confusion and curiosity.

The sense of difference created by the two tones brings an absurd ironic effect. Even if you close your eyes, you can taste the subtle changes. It's really amusing - just look at the reaction of the staff on the scene.

Not only Jonathan, but also Anna, Bryce and others who watched the shooting showed a look of consternation, with an undisguised surprise at the bottom of their eyes.

From the beginning of his debut to the beginning of shooting, lanli's performance has always been very strange. The act of not playing cards according to common sense is completely confusing. Not make complaints about how rude or rude, but the frequency of the rhythm is always not compatible. This stumbling feeling really makes people feel weak.

We all have some worries: what about the opponent play?

Under such worry, I can't help but start to speculate

Is the previous fame just flattering? Is he just an embroidered pillow under the aura of glory? In the final analysis, it's not because of lanli's excellent acting skills, but because of his tough background behind the scenes, which has created such a situation? Even if it's an Oscar nomination, it's just a PR tool in the awards season. Otherwise, how can blue Lee beat James Franco?

Two days ago, the shooting was in order. We can't see why one of them came. But today, we really realize that lanli is definitely not an embroidered pillow.

The biggest shock is definitely Seth.

Looking at lanli in front of him, he didn't even know what language to use. It was not lanli or will, but a stranger that Seth couldn't recognize. He could feel that there was a little shadow of will, but it was different from will. The sudden cold humor was much better than will.

Seth suddenly got excited and found the treasure!

Compared with the bustle of the shooting scene, Lan Li is much more calm. In this film, he pays more attention to style, role and devotion than lines or emotions - those are the problems that need to be considered when "detached" shooting. Now he is concentrating on the research of methodology.

The lines just blurted out proved that Lan Li's sense of substitution was on the right track. It was Adam speaking, not Langley as an actor.

Now, what Langley needs to do is to stay in such a state, and further develop the black humor of Comedy - this is not a ridiculous comedy.

"Andrew, are you ok?" Jonathan raised his voice and asked. Andrew nodded to confirm. Then Jonathan looked back at the set and said, "let's go back to shooting and start from scratch."

Because of the change in lenley's performance, Jonathan decided that the angle of the lens also needs to be changed to capture the details of the performance.

After shooting again, this time, the whole performance was very smooth, the burden was still in place, and then the doctor said, "yes, take a look at your MRI." The doctor turned the computer screen to Adam.

Adam raised his eyebrow. "Oh, Lenovo. Is it Lenovo This absurd and uninhibited thought flashed by. He pursed his mouth, and his eyes were a little more meaningful, but then he listened attentively to the doctor's explanation.

However, those unfamiliar words were really unfriendly to him. He lowered his eyes slightly, leaned forward slightly, cleared his throat, and wore a polite smile on his face. However, his eyes revealed his true emotion, and his face was muddled, "Er, what?"
