Chapter 2186

Penguins. Ants. Tumbler. Drunk. Crab.

It's really hard to describe David's steps with a simple adjective. His indomitable persuasion is clumsy and lovely, but also paranoid and flustered. If we have to find an accurate answer, then "children" is undoubtedly the best choice - especially those who are learning to walk but have not yet fully established themselves.

Why?

It's like when a child sees his parents who are quarreling and tries to stop them, but he doesn't know how to stop them, so he tries his best to stop them. Then he can't stand steadily, so he stumbles. Even that silly cry, "friend" is the same as a child; Coupled with lame men and big tongue man childish fighting posture, it is more vivid.

All of them reveal a kind of naive anger. Although they are expressionless, they can imagine the children's protest. Those seemingly clumsy and childish actions can't help but make people laugh. However, a kind of absurdity emerges in the whole scene, which makes the atmosphere of the whole scene different in an instant.

But it's not over yet.

The big tongued man had returned to the bench and sat down. His angry appearance vividly indicated that he was very dissatisfied now.

David's step is a little slower, and he moves step by step: step out of the left foot, right foot combined with left foot, stand together, and then step out of the left foot again, lift the right foot together again... It's not a normal cross step, but step by step, as if he is studying his own step.

When he came to the bench, his movements were a little more natural and he sat down, but his hands were still ten fingers close to his knees, straightened his waist, and then adjusted his shoulders slightly to smooth the folds of his suit and shirt, as if he was preparing for a meeting.

However, Yu Guang secretly glanced at the man with big tongue, and then returned to normal; Then he secretly glanced at the lame man. The wandering state of looking at him once again exposed his nervousness and uneasiness. Unconsciously, he began to breathe for fear that his breathing might break the existing calm.

Because of suffocation, David's face began to swell slightly - his eyes were still moving quietly, but he refused to start breathing again, and then his cheeks became ruddy little by little, visible to the naked eye.

The whole shooting scene was completely quiet, and the atmosphere of silence was slowly spreading. Without interrupting the shooting, the performance did not stop.

"Card!"

When the sound of Eugene's stop shooting finally sounded, the first action of all the people on the set was to take a big breath. The sound of gasping was particularly obvious. Some people even coughed violently because they were so worried that they were choked by their own saliva. There was no exception. Everyone could not help looking at each other

It turned out that he was not the only one who began to shut up because of lanli's performance. That kind of tacit understanding gradually made everyone react, and then he could no longer help but burst into laughter.

The more you think about it, the funnier it is!

The performance of John and westshaw is very brilliant, which shows the childish spirit struggle and complements the absurdity of the whole story background; But the performance of the two people are far less than that of Lan Li, and all the eyes and highlights fall on Lan Li.

Although lanli has only one line, "friend", the grievance and helplessness in his voice are fully displayed through body language. The black humor conveyed by the steps, actions and details not only shows the tone of the whole story, but also extends the innocence and dullness of David——

It's the same as the previous performance, pieced together little by little the appearance that David is not familiar with the world and has a childish heart, which has become the only light in the whole black comedy.

In the laughter, even Eugene could not help laughing.

John and westshaw, who lifted the seal of the performance, both laughed, "God, you're going to kill me! I almost had a laugh. " John complained speechlessly, still can't believe that Langley's performance is so successful and unique. "You're a born comedian."

"No, the real comic genius is Buster Keaton." Lan Li shook his head and said sincerely.

"Keaton?" There was something unexpected about westshaw.

Lanli nodded his head and said, "I got some inspiration from watching the movie last night. In fact, Buster Keaton's seemingly expressionless performances showed changeable emotional levels through body language, such as the speed of the steps, the posture of the body, the pause of the rhythm, and so on. These are all direct signals. I think maybe we can try them in the performance, Give the character more emotion, and then there's today's performance. "

There was a sigh around: it was the inspiration of Buster Keaton.

John waved, "wait, don't be cheated by this guy. Ben and I watched the movie yesterday. Of course, we also got inspiration, but we couldn't get into the performance like him. What really matters is that Langley is still a genius, otherwise everyone watching Keaton will become a comedy legend

"Oh All of a sudden, in the final analysis, Lan Li was powerful.

This time, Lan Li didn't refuse, just spread out his hands, "yes, I'm a genius." That life can't love the appearance, with the action of the showman, comedy effect came out again.

"Lanli, how did you finish your performance just now?" After a moment's hesitation, wisshaw asked sincerely, "I mean, hand movements and foot movements, I always feel that the expression is not enough. You know, this should have been my crutch."

"Your performance was excellent." Lanli also said sincerely, "you are very correct in using lameness. I don't think you need any guidance. However, we can communicate and see that my movements are actually very simple, that is, to make all the movements rigid and trivial. "

Although there is no such classification in performances - at least not in professional performances, performances can be divided into facial expressions and body language.

The body language of British drama actors is very rich, because these actions are all complementary to the lines; But American actors are relatively weak in this aspect. The most representative is Meryl Streep, the top actor in history. Her expression and lines are beyond doubt. Even if she doesn't like it, she must admire her handling of details, which gives her roles too many possibilities, but her body language is very clumsy.

A close observation of Meryl's films shows that her hands and feet are often short of vitality, and most of her movements are stiff and awkward. Especially at the moment of emotional outburst, her body movements become dull and clumsy, unable to further extend the character's emotion. Her movements and expressions are often easily separated, at least they can not give more emotional support to her expression.

Of course, this can't blame Meryl. On the one hand, it's because of her talent. Some people are born good at body movements; On the one hand, it is the shackles caused by the media such as film and television. Different from the drama stage, film and television tend to use close-up or close-up to present clearer expression changes, so as to complete the communication with the audience. Over time, the body language outside the camera has not been paid attention to.

It can be said that this is related to the development of the times.

This is also the reason why British actors have to return to the stage regularly. The physical performance training plays an important role in the whole performance.

As an Englishman, his body language also has enough standards, but he is still working hard and learning, because he believes that body movement is also an integral part of the whole performance, just like Langley.

This is the case at this time.

Body performance is skillful, such as deliberately straightening the knee, which can make the walking posture clumsy, and the bending and non bending steps will have subtle changes; Another example is to adjust the stride length. The stride of happy horseshoe disease and the stride of panic are necessarily different. The size of the stride and the change of eyes can often present a completely different state of mind.

In the performance, lanli consciously restrained his movements, even his thumb was firmly attached to his palm, and then the whole shoulder line was working hard, creating a hunchback effect - not timid or afraid, but clumsy, like an ostrich, dodging danger while having to face danger, and then he could only cram his head into the sand; Finally, with Penguin footstep, that kind of simple and honest clumsiness becomes complete.

Of course, the finishing touch is eyes, the kind of eyes staring at the ground, completed the whole performance. In the process of persuasion, David can even blink quickly because of fear, and his facial features are distorted because of fear - these details may not be seen in the chaos of war, and the audience will still be robbed of all the sight by body language, and there are two people who are wrestling, but the details are the best way to complete the performance.

It's exactly these details that are missing from the character. He makes full use of the sense of heaviness created by the character's lameness, but fails to find the correct chemical reaction in the details of upper body movements and hands expression. This is the reason why the character is robbed of his light - probably because he lacks a little inspiration for body movements, It may also be that he lacks a bit of in-depth study of the character context.

A really profound performance can tell the audience: why he walks like this, why he sits like this... Every move can find the context, while the director's lens can keenly capture these details and present them without trace; At the same time, the actor can also integrate into it without any trace of carving, which is perfect——

But it's too difficult to perform like this. So far, even lanli himself is still exploring, which is why he needs to study diligently.
