1890 Watching from outside
It may be hard to believe, but the reality is that movie sets tend to look silly to some extent, not just those scenes that can only be perfected with post-production computer special effects, but even ordinary performance scenes.——
Surrounded by the entire photography crew, one or more actors enter the state of another character, show the story of another world, and immerse themselves in their own emotions of joy, sadness, joy, pain, etc., all of which are Emotion takes on the state shown in the story.
But the point is that all the staff are in a real-world environment, surrounded by cameras, tracks, microphones and other filming equipment. This also forces them to separate themselves from the world of the script and clearly understand that this is a "performance" , or in other words, this is a false state, which naturally creates a gap between reality and illusion..
The bigger the gap, the stupider it feels, especially those popcorn visual effects blockbusters that have to perform in the air. This is indeed how it feels when the crew watches the filming process..
Just like the movie "The Truman Show": everyone knows that it is all false, with the exception of Truman. This creates a sense of superiority, and the perspective of God who is outside the situation can often lead to A unique feeling - a silly absurdity in 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 convince themselves to get used to it, otherwise the work on the set will be difficult to operate..
But Chen Zihao and Melanie are not professionals. They are just people who occasionally come to guest appearances. At this time, they are standing in a crowd of staff, surrounded by countless shooting equipment. The whole atmosphere is emphasizing: this is a shooting Live, this is fake! In addition, the stuntman in front of them was lying on the ground, wearing a hood, holding a wire, and his body proportions were seriously uncoordinated. Every detail was breaking the mystery and reminding them in every way that this was fake.!
It feels like a low-quality version of magic reveal. Not only is there no sense of mystery at all, but the truth is thrown out in a clumsy way. Even the reveal has no gimmick or texture, which makes people unbearable to watch..
Under such circumstances, seeing Renly and Bryce acting solemnly with sad and heavy expressions, Melanie really couldn't help but burst into laughter: This is really stupid.!
She didn't mean it, she really didn't mean it - she knew this was a movie shooting scene, everyone was working seriously, and it was definitely not a joke, but the simple picture in front of her really made it difficult to stay focused. She felt that her willpower had reached its limit.
However, all the staff on site were holding their breath and looking attentively, which made Melanie somewhat isolated and helpless. She could only look for Chen Zihao for help..
Raising her head, Melanie saw a look of astonishment and surprise in Chen Zihao's eyes, and a slight smile was about to move at the corner of his mouth. This made Melanie immediately become happy, and pushed Chen Zihao's arm with her elbow, forcing her to He suppressed his smile and said silently with his eyes: This scene is really funny.!
Chen Zihao also nodded in agreement, but unlike Melanie, he did not want to miss the opportunity to watch Renly's performance at such a close distance. Although the scene was indeed very funny, his attention still remained on Renly. body, searching carefully on the monitor screen - he didn't know what he was looking for, he just subconsciously felt that this should be the right thing to do..
Through the photographer's lens, Chen Zihao's attention gradually focused on Renly's eyes and expressions, and those simple and even ridiculous scenes became natural, because all his senses were focused on Renly's eyes. On my body, things gradually started to become more subtle..
“look! "Chen Zihao didn't say anything more, but raised his chin, gestured to his eyes on the monitor screen, and then remained quiet..
Melanie still couldn't get rid of the smile in her mind, but she also knew that the opportunity was rare, so she still cast her eyes on the TV screen. Quan thought it was a crowd watching the excitement, and then she heard Chen Zihao's voice coming over again in a low voice. , "Look.”
What to see?
Melanie's eyes still didn't leave the monitor screen, but all her attention was focused on the brachiosaurus hood. It was so scene-stealing that she couldn't get rid of it. Then she looked at the sadness shown on Renly and Bryce. , that kind of joy made it impossible for her to get into the play.——
It's like Renly is holding a rubber headband and is sad. That's not sadness, that's psychosis.
But along with Chen Zihao's voice, Melanie gradually noticed: noticed those details, because all the focus of the entire picture was on Renly and Bryce, and she could not ignore those details, so she entered naturally. within the field of view.
His right hand touched the long neck of the Brachiosaurus lightly and gently. His cautious movements seemed to worry that his touch would disturb the injured creature. Even his eyes became softer, and his focused and devoted gaze was soft. It fell lightly on its body, showing a trace of sadness and heaviness, and then disappeared in an instant, hiding all the pain. The brows became firm again, but they still did not dare to make any more movements, for fear of disturbing them. its rest.
Yes, Melanie still couldn't ignore the huge lethality of the rubber hood, but she could capture the true feelings in those eyes and that face.
Even if it's a rag doll, even if it's a rubber hood, his emotions are real. Just like many people can't understand treating dogs or cats as family members, there are also people who can't understand them. I can’t understand treating my own toys as part of my memory, no matter what the carrier is, but what is certain is that the weight of the true feelings is the same and is enough to move everyone..
Just like "Air Doll Love", the character played by Ryan Gosling regards an air doll as his lover, not because he is crazy, but because he faces the world in his own way. No I understand, but that doesn’t mean I have the right to laugh or despise.
Melanie's smile just stayed at the corner of her mouth, and finally disappeared slowly. She couldn't take her eyes away from Renly's face. That calm face concealed all emotions, there was no sorrow or grief, only the faintly revealed It's heavy, but the gentle movements of his hands tell so much.
He gently soothed the injuries of the Brachiosaurus, seeming to use the warmth of his palms to ease the pain of those wounds. His lowered eyes could not capture the emotions behind his eyes, but the faint struggle between his eyebrows made people start to feel worried.——
What disaster did he experience? What pain did you face again? In the face of pain and life and death, his almost numb forbearance revealed the softness deep in his heart. Only the soul that has truly experienced life, separation and death can understand the lightness after the heaviness reaches the extreme. Even a breath is worried about being hurt..
Melanie's chest felt slightly stuffy, not too obvious and not too painful, but she always wanted to exhale the turbid air, and then a faint sadness lingered on her fingertips, and the sincere and heavy emotion broke After noticing the absurdity of the scene, he gently fell on Melanie's shoulder..
As a layman, standing outside the crew and performing, Melanie had no idea what was going on, but she was able to capture the most sincere and sincere emotions, passing through the camera, breaking the shackles, Ignoring the crew, it spread to her chest, and then there was a slight bitterness on the tip of her tongue.:
It's not the power of film, it's the power of acting.
Only by truly observing it up close can we understand the purity and power of that power, as well as its fatal attraction..
Owen gently caressed/touched the long neck of the Brachiosaurus, and turned his head slightly to look into the eyes of the Brachiosaurus. He did not speak or express, but silently used his movements and body temperature to make the Brachiosaurus feel a little warm, but the pain of the Brachiosaurus But he passed it on without reservation, which made Owen's upper body move slightly closer and said softly, "It's about to end. It doesn't matter, it's about to end.".”
The whispers are almost inaudible, but they can capture the fragility all over the body..
It's almost over.
This is not a comfort, but a relief. That's because Owen knows better than anyone else that the torture of pain is far more terrifying than death. The pain at the end of his life is enough to make the soul begin to tear apart. This is true for all living things, so the best comfort at the last moment is not "it doesn't matter" or "everything will be fine", but "it's going to be over."”.
Behind this simple sentence, there is too much heaviness revealed.
Claire also got out of the passenger seat and took steps full of confusion and doubt. Her eyes first fell on the Brachiosaurus, and then on Owen - she could feel Owen's repressed feeling. The emotions under the surface were not turbulent, just heavy. Such a scene was really too familiar, but she had never really felt it. Then her eyes came to the dying Brachiosaurus again..
She could feel the connection between Owen and the Brachiosaurus, but she couldn't explain why. She could only approach carefully step by step, lest her recklessness break the balance here, and then she saw the look in Owen's eyes. Gentle, gently caressing/touching the head and neck of the Brachiosaurus. The gentle hand movements are like caring for a newborn baby. The holy light deep in the eyes is extremely focused, escorting the Brachiosaurus on its last journey..
Claire seems to understand a little bit.
