Angus and may bell are exchanging views because the scene is so unexpected and fierce that some of them can't keep up with the speed and even begin to doubt their life.
First, there was a fight between Langley and Garris, then they were involved in it, and then they changed the way of performance. They had not yet had time to understand the whole blueprint and their roles. Now Langley and felicity have begun to talk about their lines... Even the ballet whip didn't turn so fast that people couldn't keep up with the rhythm, Such a crew is absolutely never experienced, so what should they do?
Isn't this a commercial blockbuster?
"Star Wars Series" never won by relying on "delicate and profound performance"; They rarely heard that the visual effects blockbusters won the hearts of the audience by relying on the fullness and vividness of the characters, but at this time, the whole context seems to be deviating from the track, and things become more and more difficult to figure out.
Is it just because of Langley?
But if you think about the whole process in a short period of time, it seems that it's not just because of Lan Li, it seems that it's not just about excavating acting skills.
Even the director agreed.
"What to do?"
"I don't know."
"To ask?"
"Are you sure?"
"What else?"
Angus and may bell exchanged their eyes so frequently, but there was inevitably some hesitation in their eyes. The hesitation in confusion made them unable to make a decision easily. Finally, Angus summoned up the courage to step forward. There were numerous rumors about Langley in London, but there was a consensus: Langley's professionalism was absolutely admirable.
Maybe the best way is to be outspoken and ask if you don't understand. It's like Garris.
Angus decided to trust Langley once. "Excuse me, can we join you in the dialogue?" Angus also picked up may bell by the way, turned his head and motioned to the next May bell, "I mean..."
Angus was ready to explain, and Langley readily agreed, "of course!" As if aware of the hesitation and confusion between Angus and may bell, Langley took the initiative to say, "Gareth's pictures are still magnificent, and visual effects are still the biggest attraction of the film. Our performance must not be too trivial and delicate, and the whole needs to be concise; But at the same time, felicity and I hope to be able to run through a main line for the role, follow the changes of the plot, and show the growth of the role. Therefore, we need to be more accurate and precise in our emotional manipulation. "
"But in the process of performance, we must avoid exerting too much force." Felicity added.
May bell could sense the kindness and relaxed a little. "Isn't that asking for trouble?" Finish saying regretted, the true idea in the heart unexpectedly so didn't say directly out the door.
Unexpectedly, Felicity laughed, "that's the style of master Langley, don't you know? He always likes to make trouble for himself
Lenley tilted his head and looked at felicity. "Hey, lady, if you don't like it, we can stop this stupid trick at any time." The faint smile in the words could be felt. He was joking.
Felicity pretended not to hear, but looked at Angus and may bell. "Come on, we need to hurry. Gareth is still waiting for us."
Angus and may bell both cast their eyes to lanli. Obviously, Felicity's words don't count. It's up to lanli to decide after all.
Felicity is not angry, helpless to turn to look at the blue, but also made a very ugly face, express their strong dissatisfaction.
This made Lan Li laugh and give a positive reply. "Welcome to join us, but we need to speed up. The whole crew is waiting for us. I'm sure it's not a good sign that the first play will take a whole day. "
The atmosphere finally relaxed completely.
Now Angus and may bell finally understood, at least what Langley and felicity were trying to do - their ideas were obviously too narrow.
"Of course!" Angus immediately took over the conversation, not facing Langley, but nodding to felicity.
Then felicity could be seen nodding contentedly, raising her right arm and showing off the nonexistent biceps like Popeye.
Mei Baer could see that blue rite turned a white eye, and said that she was not a gentleman, but she laughed when she make complaints about it.
"Shall we start from the beginning?" Angus didn't notice Langley's expression and continued to ask, "wait, what did Garris say just now? I need to collect some? "
In this way, the four actors got together and began to talk about their lines outside the camera. It's not reading the script, it's really acting.
This way is more frequently used in drama performance. Before the formal performance, actors need to practice repeatedly to break in the tacit understanding; Now, in a commercial film, and the first "some important but not crucial" scene, actors are practicing.
Garris was ready to shoot, but when he saw the actions of lanli and others, he didn't say much. He just sat down in the corner of the conference room and discussed with the photographer and lighting engineer about how to make full use of the space. Then... The crew was so free.
Somehow.
Jason mcgatlin, executive producer, stands beside the set, bewildered, but not sure what's going on.
……
"How's it going? How do you feel? "
"Just try."
It's not necessary to follow the whole lines completely. It's more about looking for an emotion and a rhythm, and then spending time trying to figure out and adjust each other, so that the opponent actors can fit on the same track. It took less than 10 minutes for the four actors to drill back and forth for four times and five times, and they gradually found out the feeling - just because the rhythm was wrong before, it didn't mean that their strength was not good.
Between the exchange of sight, the actors make sure they are ready, and Angus shouts to the monitor, "the captain is ready to set sail."
He didn't realize that Garris wasn't behind the monitor, so his action would be empty, making the staff around laugh.
But as a result, Garris, who was sitting in the corner to hold a small meeting, still caught the sound, patted the photographer and lighting engineer on the shoulders, and was ready to shoot again - this was just the first scene of "grand theft one" when it started, and the difficulties he faced at this time had exceeded expectations.
According to superstition, this is not a good omen.
However, Garris's idea is slightly different: instead of finding the problem in the middle of the shooting, it is better to find the problem before the beginning. From the overall point of view, this is a good thing; Especially with regard to the overall coordination between the actor's performance and the director, which is crucial to the quality of the finished film, Garris is very happy to be able to find the problem now, and then actively start looking for solutions.
In his view, this is a good thing.
Standing next to the monitor, Garris casts a look at lanli. After getting a positive response from lanli, he goes to the back of the monitor with full energy.
Quietly - or imperceptibly, people have been used to ignoring the age of lanli, and naturally believe in lanli's profession, which seems to have become a consensus; Even though felicity is nearby, and even Angus and may bell are veteran players in the industry for many years, Langley still easily won the trust.
This subtle change seems to have taken for granted.
Then, making sure the crew was ready, Garris announced the start of filming again, and this time, they started shooting from scratch.
As a director, Garris can clearly perceive that the chemical reactions of the whole picture are different.
Angus's performance is a mixture of sarcasm, relaxed shoulders and light tone. It's just these small and detailed changes that add a little interest and entertainment. At the same time, it can make the audience begin to wonder: what's the rebel's attitude towards Jean Urso?
May Bell's performance is more calm and atmospheric, showing the style of the rebel leader. As a god of the sea, she keeps the atmosphere of the whole conference room cold and serious, and controls the core atmosphere of the plot. In the middle shot composition, the style of the leader can cover the whole situation.
This is the integrity of the picture.
Of course, the most important thing is felicity, who is the center of the whole play.
be vigilant. nervous. Introverted. tenacity. Smart.
Just by sitting upright and quietly looking at the rest of the scene, Felicity successfully presents her character's state in a limited space with a few strokes - more emotions are conveyed through her lines; But now it's only on the surface, and it can't go further, because the pain point of "Jean Urso" has not been touched, and the real confrontation still needs to wait for the appearance of "Captain Cassian Ando".
However, for now, the short 45 second performance has balanced the whole scene, and the tension of confrontation has begun to spread slowly. The overall quality has been improved at an essential level. Not to mention Garris, even the attention of the on-site staff is beginning to focus.
From performance to lighting to camera scheduling, the first scene finally took on the look of a movie.
Then, the play came out.
When Captain Cassian Ando appeared on the stage, the whole tribe was on lanli's body because everyone was curious about whether lanli, who was rumored to be "bad at acting", had three heads and six arms? But just now the performance has not been able to fit on the track, but has completed the adjustment in a short time. What role has Lan Li played? More importantly, what about Langley's own performance? Can it bring surprise?
The answer, obviously, is yes. Lanli seems to be born for the camera!
