It may be hard to believe it, but the truth is that the movie scenes are more or less stupid, not especially those scenes that can be perfected by computer special effects in the later stage, even ordinary performance scenes——
One or more actors, surrounded by the staff of the whole photography and drama group, enter the state of another character, show the story of another world, immerse themselves in their own happiness, sadness, joy, pain and other emotions, and show the state of the story.
But the point is that all the staff are in the real world environment, haunted by cameras, tracks, microphones and other shooting equipment, which also forces them to separate from the script world, clearly understand that this is "performance", or that this is a false state, and naturally create a gap between reality and illusion.
The bigger the gap, the more stupid it is to feel, especially for those popcorn blockbusters that have to perform in the air. When the crew is watching the shooting process, it's true.
It's like the movie "Truman's world": everyone knows it's false, except Truman. Thus, it creates a sense of height. The perspective of God, which is out of the way, often brings a unique feeling that it is a kind of stupid absurdity at the beginning.
This is a common reaction of normal people, and it is also a normal reaction that every ordinary worker who enters the Hollywood film industry must overcome
They have to convince themselves to stay focused, or to get used to it, or they're going to have a hard time shooting the set.
However, Chen Zihao and Melanie are not professionals. They are just occasional guests. Standing in a crowd of staff, surrounded by countless shooting equipment, the whole atmosphere is emphasizing: This is the shooting scene, this is fake! In addition, the stand in actor was lying on the ground, wearing a Headcover, holding a wire, and the proportion of his body was seriously uncoordinated. Every detail was breaking the mystery, reminding them that it was fake!
This feeling is like a bad version of the magic revealed in general, not only no sense of mystery; But also the poor way to throw out the truth of the red fruit, even the secret is not a gimmick or texture, people can't bear to look directly at.
Under such circumstances, Melanie can't help laughing at the sight of Lanley and Bryce's solemn expression of sadness and heaviness: it's really stupid!
She didn't mean it, she really didn't mean it - she knew it was a film shooting scene, everyone was working hard, not joking, but the simple picture in front of her really made it difficult for people to keep their concentration, and she felt that her willpower had reached the limit.
However, all the staff on the scene are staring at each other with breathless concentration, which makes Melanie a little isolated and helpless. She can only look for Chen Zihao for help.
Looking up, Melanie saw that Chen Zihao's eyes also showed a look of consternation and surprise. Her shallow smile was ready to move in the corner of her mouth. Melanie immediately cheered up and put her elbow on Chen Zihao's arm. She tried to hold back her smile and said in silence: this scene is really funny!
Chen Zihao nodded his head in agreement, but unlike Melanie, he didn't want to miss such a close-up opportunity to watch lanli's performance. Although the scene was really funny, his attention was still on lanli, exploring carefully on the monitor screen - he didn't know what he was looking for, just subconsciously, This should be the right approach.
Through the camera lens of the photographer, Chen Zihao's attention gradually focused on Lan Li's eyes and expression. Those simple and even absurd scenes became a matter of course, because all his senses were focused on Lan Li, and things gradually began to be subtle.
"Look Chen Zihao didn't say much, but raised his chin, motioned his eyes above the monitor screen, and then kept quiet.
Melanie still has no way to get rid of the smile in her mind, but she also knows that the opportunity is rare. She still turns her eyes to the TV screen and sees the crowd. Then she hears Chen Zihao's voice whispering, "look."
What are you look at?
Melanie's eyes still didn't leave the monitor screen, but all her attention was focused on the brachiosaurus headgear. She was so busy that she couldn't get rid of it. Then when she saw the sadness on blue Lee and Bryce, she couldn't get into the play——
It's like Langley holding a rubber headgear in her arms. It's not sadness, it's insanity.
But with Chen Zihao's voice, Melanie gradually noticed the details, because all the focus of the whole picture was on lanli and Bryce, and she could not ignore the details, so she naturally entered the field of vision.
His right hand lightly and gently touched the long neck of brachiosaurus. His cautious action seemed to worry that his touch would disturb the injured creatures, and his eyes softened. His attentive and devoted eyes fell on him, showing a trace of sadness and heaviness, and then disappeared in a flash, hiding all the pain, Meiyu became resolute again, but still did not dare to increase the movement, lest he disturbed its rest.
Yes, Melanie still has no way to ignore the great lethality of the rubber headgear, but she can capture the true feelings of those eyes and that face.
Even if it's a doll, even if it's a rubber headgear, his feelings are real. Just as many people can't understand the dog or cat as a family member, some people can't understand the toy as a part of their memory. No matter what the carrier is, it's certain that the weight of the true feelings is common enough to move everyone.
Just like the love of air doll, Ryan Gosling takes an air doll as his lover, not because he is crazy, but because he faces the world in his own way. Do not understand, but does not mean that there is ridicule or disdain of the qualifications.
Melanie's smile just stayed in the corner of her mouth, and finally slowly disappeared. Her eyes could not leave lanli's face. The calm face concealed all emotions, no sorrow, no sadness, only the heavy that was revealed. But the gentle action of his hand told too much.
In this way, he gently comforted Brachiosaurus' injury, and seemed to use the warmth of his palm to ease the pain of those wounds. The drooping eyelids could not catch the emotion of the eyeground, but the faint struggle between the eyebrows made people start to worry——
What disaster did he go through? What pain did you face? In the face of pain and life and death, his almost numb forbearance reveals the softness of his heart. Only the soul who has really experienced the separation of life and death can understand the lightness after the heaviness reaches the extreme, and even a breath is worried about being hurt.
Melanie's chest is so slightly stuffy, not too obvious and not too painful, but she always wants to spit out the turbid air, and then the light sadness lingers around her fingertips. The sincere and heavy emotion breaks the absurdity of the scene and gently falls on Melanie's shoulder.
As a layman, standing outside the crew and wandering outside the performance, Melanie doesn't understand what's going on, but she can capture the most sincere and sincere emotion, passing through the camera, breaking the shackles, ignoring the crew, and then passing it to her chest, and then there is a slight bitterness on the tip of her tongue
It's not the power of film, it's the power of performance.
Only when we really watch from a close distance can we understand the purity and strength of that power and the fatal attraction of that power.
Owen gently stroked the long neck of Brachiosaurus, slightly turned his head and looked into the eyes of brachiosaurus. He didn't speak or have any expression. He just silently used his movements and body temperature to make Brachiosaurus feel a little warm, but the pain of Brachiosaurus was passed on unreservedly, which made Owen's upper body slightly close, and whispered, "it's almost over. It doesn't matter. It's almost over. "
The whisper is almost inaudible, but it can capture the bruised fragility.
It's almost over.
This is not a comfort, but a relief. That's because Owen knows better than anyone that the suffering of pain is far more terrible than death. The pain of dying is enough to tear the soul apart. This is true of any creature. Therefore, the best comfort at the last moment is not "it doesn't matter" or "everything will be OK", It's "almost over.".
Behind a simple sentence, too much weight is revealed.
Claire also stepped down from the co pilot's seat, full of confusion and doubt. Her eyes first fell on Brachiosaurus, and then on Owen. She could feel Owen's emotion under the surface, not turbulent, but heavy. Such a scene was really too familiar, but she never really felt it, Then the line of sight came again to the dying brachiosaurus.
She can feel the connection between Irving and Brachiosaurus, but can't say a reason. She can only approach carefully step by step, for fear that her recklessness will break the balance here. Then she can see the tenderness in Irving's eyes, gently touching the head and neck of Brachiosaurus, and the gentle hand movement is like taking care of a newborn baby, The holy light deep in the eye fundus is extremely focused, and is dedicated to escorting Brachiosaurus for the last journey.
Claire seems to understand.
