1117 self torture
The Rooney in front of her had neat short hair, and her neat facial features outlined a touch of alienation and coldness. Her messy hair was sticky at her temples due to sweat. There was a hint of weakness in her embarrassment, but Those deep eyes were filled with gentle light like stars, twinkling gently..
Renly just stared at Rooney quietly, watching the images in the depths of his eyes lose their luster and color little by little. The illusory world of light and shadow disappeared, and the weight of reality from gravity suddenly made his feet step on it. On the ground, the down-to-earth feeling made Rooney's face clearer, and she could also catch the warm concern in her eyes..
“I'm fine." Renly's eyes still stayed between his eyebrows. Finally, the smile at the corner of his mouth rose slightly, he looked away, shook his head to deny, "I'm serious, I'm fine. It's just... just a little bit. I need to rehydrate now. Before heading to the bathroom, I need to store up some water..”
This is a little humor between two actors. Only two people who are trapped in a light box working for a long time can understand it..
Rooney laughed dumbly, "Jesus Christ, are you sure you didn't steal Alex's line?"?”
One second, he was still the same iceberg-faced Ryan Stone; the next second, he started to joke and joke. Such a sharp change was too rapid. It also proved from the side that Renly has now completely changed from the character. wake up.
Lowering his eyelids, Renly saw Rooney, who was trying his best to support himself. She reluctantly held his left arm, which became the most important support point. That seemingly petite body burst out with powerful energy. The perseverance between the eyebrows bursts out with a heroic appearance.
The smile on Renly's lips rose slightly again, "This is the second time..”
The first time was on the first day when I joined the crew.
According to the staff, Renly was exhausted, dehydrated and in a coma. Even all the strength in his body was completely drained, and he fell to the ground like a mountain..
If it weren't for Rooney, injury would be a high probability event. Putting aside the possibility of potential facial friction injuries, if the weight of the entire body collapsed to the ground, shoulders, joints and other important parts may be sprained or even fractured..
The consequences are unimaginable.
Today is the second time.
Renly's words had no beginning or end, and Rooney didn't react for a moment. Then she noticed Renly's gaze, and then she reacted. She chuckled and raised her eyebrows calmly, "So, this is also consistent with the two opinions." Sub-rule??”
Two-day rule, two-time rule. These are two different things, but they are also the same thing..
Rooney's thinking was really beating too fast. Renly was stunned for a moment, and then he came to his senses. There was a smile in his eyes, but on the surface he still nodded seriously, "Yes, I have a two-time rule. Extremely strict, I still refuse to date the same person more than twice. So, I think it should still be clear between us..”
“Phew, glad." Rooney patted her chest and exhaled a long breath..
Raising their gazes, Renly and Rooney could see Nathan, who was helpless and cautiously standing next to him. They tried to come up to help, but were worried about affecting the conversation between the two. The hesitant look once again made the two of them laugh at the same time. stand up.
Renly nodded towards Nathan and expressed his affirmation. Then with Nathan's help, he sat down next to him. His extremely tight muscles could finally relax a little. In fact, there was no problem with his physical strength, but his knees. Somewhat soft; also dehydrated.
Taking the water glass with a straw inserted, Renly slowly replenished the water. Alfonso and Emmanuel both walked forward. Renly cast a questioning look, "How was the shooting??”
“pretty! It’s so beautifully done! Alfonso snapped his fingers, with an excited expression on his face. He couldn't help but keep rubbing his hands. The completion of each key scene meant that they took a step towards the perfect finished product, just in their minds. Imagination makes people excited.
Renly's eyes glanced back and forth between Alfonso and Emmanuel, "But?" He knew that there must be a twist later, otherwise, the two people would not come here hand in hand..
“But..." Sure enough, Alfonso hesitated for a moment, then said aloud, looking at Emmanuel.
Emmanuel simply took over the conversation, "In the shots just now, we used more medium shots to capture the relationship between Ryan and Alex, and used the position contrast of the cabin space to present the relationship between the characters. but during the filming process, I noticed the eye contact between the two of you. I don’t know how to act, but I can read the sparks.……”
“So I thought," Emmanuel paused for a moment to collect his thoughts, "Maybe we can take the lens language of this scene a step further and use the position change between close-up and close-up to highlight your performance and weaken it. The influence of the space environment enhances the telepathy between the two characters and completes the sublimation of the core of the entire story..”
According to Emmanuel, it is to re-imagine the lens language and performance content of the entire scene. Then the entire scene must be re-shot, and then the appropriate shots will be selected through post-production..
It's possible that all the previous shots were cut out, and not a single one was left; it's also possible that the shots that were reshot later were found to be less effective than expected, so they were all abandoned and the previous version was still used..
No matter which possibility it is, to put it simply, the actors have to work hard again, and some of the efforts and sweat may be in vain.
Alfonso and Emmanuel both knew what these words meant, so as soon as Emmanuel finished speaking, Alfonso added, "Personally, the first version has fully met expectations. , exactly what I imagined when I was imagining the script. But, but, Emmanuel is right about one thing, the chemistry between you is really very enjoyable..”
Alfonso's eyes moved back and forth between Renly and Rooney. He said nothing, but his ambiguous eyes were enough, "Are you sure...between Ryan and Alex?" Can't you develop something??”
“director.”
“Alfonso.”
Renly and Rooney said in unison. The two quickly exchanged glances and chuckled. Finally, Renly said, "We have already discussed this topic..”
Alfonso raised his hands and surrendered, "Okay, okay, I understand..”
Rooney added, "Perhaps it would be a good idea to leave more blanks for the audience to fill in. We don't want to blur the focus of the story. Survival and life are the focus; but, beyond that, leaving Giving the audience more to savor and chew on is a good thing.”
Alfonso nodded in agreement, "But I agree with Emmanuel's idea. In this scene, the communication between Ryan and Alex, just through lines, is actually a bit stiff. You guys Both of them are very good actors, and they filled the gaps through their eyes. I was thinking that when Alex chose to give up himself to marry Ryan, we captured a set of close-up shots of his eyes. Can we do it now? make a response.”
“As Rooney said, an intertext is formed based on the lens language, not through the script, but through the performance, which is naturally presented to the audience, presenting the two characters’ understanding of life, and then making the whole scene Transitions become softer and more natural.”
Alfonso spoke his thoughts in one breath, but after finishing speaking, he frowned and showed a worried apology..
He knew how difficult it was to shoot the scene just now, and both Renly and Rooney tried their best; moreover, the presentation effect was so outstanding, and it was precisely because of this excellence that the chemical reaction burst out from the eye contact between the actors, This made both him and Emmanuel a little unable to hold on any longer..
But now, he is asking Renly and Rooney to do it all over again. This is definitely a kind of torture..
“Renly, I'm sorry, I..." Alfonso tried to say something, but he didn't know what to say..
Renly shook his head with a smile and stopped Alfonso, "Let's do it all over again and make a new attempt." Then, Renly raised his head and looked at Rooney, casting a questioning look..
Rooney shrugged eagerly, "Then are we still wasting time here? Let's start right away..”
“Are you sure? ” Alfonso confirmed again.
“Yes, I'm sure." Renly laughed dumbly..
In fact, reshooting this scene was a kind of torture for Renly, torture from the depths of his soul..
“The filming process of "Gravity" gave Renly a lot of inspiration. He started with Methodism and combined with his own experience to refine a brand new character; then, he used his own experience and feelings to present it in an expressionistic way. The boundary between loss of control and control goes back and forth, injecting a deeper and more special performance quality into the character..
It may be just a flicker and shift of the eyes, but it is like the finishing touch, lighting up the soul of the performance..
In terms of acting skills and experience, this is an improvement; the problem is that this experience has completely broken all dimensional walls, about Chu Jiashu, about Renly, about Heather, about Ryan, All the fragments of the story were mixed together, false and true, true and false, forcing Renly to relive the pain over and over again..
Especially Heather.
A performance is like the process of slowly drowning in the depths of the ocean. The problem is not the difference between reality and illusion, but Renly's own struggle and pain. Such suffering is like tearing apart the soul.
But Renly still didn't refuse the proposal of reshooting, because he knew that this was how it was during the performance. The creation and collision of art, countless sparks sprouted, and he tried again and again, trying to find the most perfect way to transform himself. thoughts expressed.
This was true when filming "Transcendence", and it is true now when filming "Gravity".
On the contrary, Renly admired Emmanuel's understanding of the camera and performance so much that he was willing to try again with open arms..
Now that the storm has started, let’s make it more violent.
