1386 The so-called professional

Melissa was nervous, so nervous that she almost felt sick to her stomach. Her eyes began to vibrate violently. She always wanted to avoid Renly's gaze involuntarily, not to mention looking at each other, even if she was bathing in Renly's gaze. It was a terrible torment in Zhongdu, and the idea of ​​​​running away deep in her heart was getting stronger and stronger, swallowing up her reason bit by bit..

In this scene, all the weight falls on Andrew. His embarrassment, nervousness, and youthfulness form a strong contrast with the story that follows, and are crucial to the shaping of the character..

But for Nicole, it wasn't too difficult. Her sweet smile full of youthful vitality was her signature. Deep down, she also left an impression on Andrew. Although she didn't like it yet, she was very happy to do so. Go out with Andrew and get to know each other better. After all, dating is just normal for young people..

Therefore, Nicole is the relatively relaxed one, with relaxed muscles, relaxed expressions, and relaxed demeanor. She even had the energy to tease Andrew..

Now, Melissa couldn't relax. She was as nervous as a clockwork doll that had been turned to the extreme. The spring was almost about to break. Her eyes and movements were horribly stiff. It was far different from Nicole's state. Not being able to say even the simplest line is a disaster.

However, Melissa couldn't control herself. She stared at Renly in front of her. She couldn't help but think of the confrontation five days ago. That kind of fear and fear were eating away at all her attention, as if... It's like stepping on a landmine with both feet, worrying about it exploding all the time and not daring to move easily..

Damien's voice came to his ears, and Renly could feel Damien's frustration - because this scene was not difficult..

“Damien, give us some space." Renly turned his head and showed a smile, "Melissa and I need to communicate how to shoot this scene. You don't need to be too nervous, it just needs a little tacit understanding..”

After all, Damien is still young and inevitably a little impetuous..

More importantly, "Blast Drummer" was originally an independent work that no one cared about, but now it has become a highly anticipated project throughout North America. Because of Renly's joining, there was a bustling crowd outside the filming scene yesterday and today. There were at least forty reporters. Such a formation made people excited..

But what about after the excitement??

The pressure began to invade little by little. Now Damien gradually felt the weight on his shoulders. He was young and cautious, and couldn't help but feel at a loss. The slightest disturbance might trigger Damien's sensitivity. /sensory nerve.

“Are you sure? "Damien's subconscious told him that there was no need to doubt Renly's words, but involuntarily, the words just blurted out..

But Renly didn't mind and nodded with a smile, "I'm sure. Give us ten minutes.".”

Damien hesitated for a moment and exhaled a long breath, "Ten minutes.".”

The crew began to retreat, clearing a space for Renly and Melissa to communicate, and the surrounding area became quiet for a while..

Melissa deeply thought that she was going to vomit, and the feeling of nausea was getting stronger and stronger..

Sure enough, whatever she was afraid of came, she was left there, face to face with Renly alone. It was like locking her in the same cage with a shark. This was not fair.!

what should she do?

What else can she do??

“Do you know what it means to be an actor? "Renly spoke, and Melissa couldn't help but be stunned, with a trace of confusion in her eyes: Such a profound topic? No idea? What a freak..

Renly caught the mixed light in Melissa's eyes, but didn't mind it at all. The smile at the corner of his mouth still maintained its usual arc, "Being an actor means that after entering the world of the character, we must temporarily leave our personal world behind the camera. In addition, he wholeheartedly presents the character's life.”

Melissa still looked confused and completely confused; or maybe it was a preconceived notion, she always felt that Renly was about to launch a punishment. She lost her ability to think and stared at Renly in front of her, feeling nothing but fear. idea.

“Not just independent movies, but also romantic movies or comedy movies." Renly had a slight smile in his eyes. If it were normal, he would not discuss such things with Melissa, because Melissa looked like It's not like he's the type to be keen on this, but what happened in the past few days has affected the filming of "Explosive Drummer", so he still had to take the initiative to speak out.

“I mean, even if you hate each other, you still have to act like you're deeply in love when the characters need it. Not only do you have to convince the audience, but you also have to convince yourself. This is called acting, and it's called professionalism." Renly explains further.

For laymen, the work of an actor does not seem difficult. You only need to stand in front of the camera and perform. That's it. This is especially true for comedy, horror or love movies; but the real responsibility of an actor is far away. much more than that.

One of the greatest and most classic works in history, "Gone with the Wind". If inflation is taken into account, this work is still the highest-grossing work in the United States to date - its box office data should be 1.8 billion after adjustment. Dollars, no one can match it; in the movie, the stunning kiss between Scarlett Hao and Rhett Butler is still one of the most classic kiss scenes on the big screen until seventy years later..

But in fact, during the filming of this scene, the two actors Vivien-Leigh and Clark-Gable deeply hated each other..

For Vivien, she thought Clark was rude and vulgar, had a bad temper, and acted like a big star for no reason. During the cooperation process, he tortured her in every possible way. Even if she was unwell, she still had to insist on hard filming, which consumed almost all her energy, so that There were signs of schizophrenia, and she even complained to the producer and director many times, believing that Clark wanted to torture her to death..

To Clark, Vivien was a self-centered woman. At that time, Vivien and Laurence Olivier were in a heated relationship, and they were inseparable, so Laurence simply came to the set and stayed with her all day long. Together, Vivien racked her brains to come up with various excuses to escape from the set and have sex with Lawrence. This was simply unreasonable to Clark..

At that time, Clark was already a top star in the United States, while Vivien was just an unknown person who had just crossed the ocean from England to the United States. More than 1,400 actresses competed for the role of Scarlett Hao. The film crew also conducted a public opinion poll on actress candidates, and Vivian only received two votes..

It is against this background that Clark rejects cooperation with Vivien and is picky in every possible way. Vivien also refuses to compromise, and even goes to great lengths to use Lawrence to put pressure on the crew. The two people really hate each other..

When filming this kiss scene, both actors were very reluctant. Clark deliberately kept smoking because Vivian thought Clark had bad breath and complained to the producer; in retaliation, Vivian deliberately ate a bunch of garlic. Just started shooting. So, this is a kiss that smells like cigarettes and garlic..

However, this kiss has not been affected at all and has become a classic in film history..

This is what is called professionalism.

During the filming process, it is impossible to always meet an actor who is your co-star. If necessary, you may even need to fall in love with an actor who you have no interest in or have any ideas about, and show that you are falling for the other person to convince him. The audience believes the entire story and characters.

Some people think that this is hypocrisy, so much so that they think actors are all hypocrites wearing masks. It is undeniable that this is an idea; but others think that this is performance. When the actors really get into the role, they will fit in with the role. At the same time, completely forgetting his own preferences, he will enter another level of performance——

This does not prevent actors from almost hating each other after leaving their roles..

Renly needs Melissa to stay professional, because for him, the opposite role is not a problem at all, he can fully enter the state, but he needs Melissa to temporarily forget those worries and really get into the role. This should not be a It's a difficult thing, but it shouldn't be an obstacle.

Staring at Melissa, who had never spoken, Renly flashed slightly, and a hint of helplessness slipped through. He did not have enough patience to continue to pester, because it was not his job to correct Melissa's performance..

“What happened has happened, and I have made a decision. I decided not to pursue this matter for the time being and focus on the filming of the work. Don't let me regret my decision, let alone change my mind now." Renly Without saying anything more, he clicked the button, then turned around and left the ticket counter of the cinema, leaving the space for Melissa..

This sentence should be enough.

Melissa is not a smart person, but she is not a fool either.

She raised her head suddenly and looked at Renly in disbelief: she knew that he still remembered that he was still trying to threaten her, she knew, she knew!

But what else can she do??

Melissa believed in Renly's ability. If Renly replaced her on the spot now, there would be no problem. It was this panic that made her lose her sense of proportion and never settle down and get involved in the performance. So what now? Renly confirmed her thoughts and her worries came true, so how should she choose??

Just turn around and leave?

No, no, she spent so much thought and effort to get this opportunity, she must not let go easily! She must not surrender!

Clenching her fists, and then clenching her fists again, Melissa forced herself to straighten her waist. Although she still had no confidence deep down in her heart, she would continue to fight. This battle was not over yet; this was just her first fight after entering Hollywood. It's just a threshold, she must stick to it!

Now that you have started, you have to go to the end!
