558 Switch perspective
On the streets late at night, the world was quiet. The noise remaining in the night became more and more obvious. You could faintly hear the sound of barking dogs and the collision of beer bottles. His hearing and smell seemed to be sharper. Renly could I could clearly smell the faint smell of tobacco under my nose, mixed with the humidity and coldness in the early morning, lingering on my fingertips.
The idea finally became clear, and Renly finally understood what the missing puzzle piece was. But Renly was not satisfied with this, and thought further: why was this puzzle piece missing?？
Obviously, the thinking just now is not expressionistic acting. If it follows the academy's performance thinking method and context, then Renly's performance just now is successful. The details can be slowly refined, but the portrayal and interpretation of emotions are correct and accurate. , enough for the movie.
But the biggest difference between movies and dramas is that——
The depth and connotation of drama are reflected more through the script itself. For example, in Shakespeare's drama, lines and plots, a large number of complicated and gorgeous sentences reveal all the history, philosophy, culture and other heritage hidden between the lines. This is mainly because Due to the limitations of the theater stage and the distance between the stage and the audience, the details of the actors' performances can easily be lost in the entire space..
The depth and connotation of a movie are very complex. The director's shots, the text of the script, the actors' performances, etc. are all components. In the final analysis, it is the director's shot composition, how to make full use of the actors' performances, the structure of the picture, the projection of light and the lines. The depth of the plot shows the core depth of the plot. There is no doubt that the director is the absolute helmsman of the entire work..
Renly's performance just now was enough for a drama, and the details of those expressions could not be captured, but during the movie shooting, especially Tony's lens, every delicate change of expression was truly recorded with super close-ups. down, then following the previous performances, the core idea of the script text will become unclear..
Therefore, Renly explored and pursued along the character's context, exploring the character's life status, and then constructed the resonance between the character and the story, and even the connection between the character and the entire script idea. This is not expressionism, but more of an expressionist approach. Methodist.
Of course, after returning to acting, the performance method is still expressionistic - the point is not whether Renly can resonate with Henry's experience in a method way, but that Tony's camera requires Renly to stay in this state, in this state. Struggling on the desperate line of life and death, from numbness to shock, sadness, despair, pain, avoidance, avoidance, and then back to numbness, and finally shock again, and then change.
Tony's focus is to record the delicate changes in the entire emotion. After recording it in a microscopic way, it can reflect the depth and height of the entire work..
Therefore, expressionism is still Renly's first choice, but the starting point of emotion must be slightly adjusted: emotions that collapse because of sadness, and emotions that collapse because of despair. These are two very different performance methods, eyes, expressions and movements. The changes will give the character a different touch.
If you simply follow the emotional drive of the method, then the emotions that burst out will be strong and fierce enough, and you will be on the right track, but the subtle differences will be indistinguishable, not to mention the level and depth, even the ups and downs will appear. Blurred, the three-part structure and two turning points of the whole scene will not be shown at all. Under Tony's microscope, such a performance will be slightly rough and deliberate, losing the sense of reality of the pseudo-documentary.
Only expressive acting skills can meet Renly's requirements and withstand Tony's test..
However, what is interesting is that Renly once again combines two performance methods, and it is a completely different performance method from any previous works. Will this work?？
From the perspective of a third party, whether it is a method school or an expressionist school, including the experiential school, in the final analysis, performance is still performance, and the core secret lies in the role. The actor interprets and interprets the role according to his own understanding, and then provides the film with Serve.
The advantages of expressionism are precision, layering and control, the advantages of method are selflessness, drama and vividness, and the advantages of experientialism are integration, authenticity and vividness. Each performance method has its own advantages and disadvantages, as well as own characteristics, so can Renly learn from each other's strengths and put his own understanding into the performance? Rather than deliberately distinguishing different performance methods.
This is a bold conjecture. But Renly also knows that he can't bite off more than he can chew. He is far from being a master in any single performance method. He can only be said to be on the right track. , he wants to fly without even learning how to run, but the result can only be broken into pieces. He can embrace the dream of flying, and then work hard on his walking and running skills. One day, he can spread his wings and fly..
I took a deep breath, temporarily gathered my divergent thoughts, and started thinking about the scene again..
Once the idea of the whole performance became clear, things became relatively simple. This is the part that Renly is best at, the origin, development, transformation and settlement of emotions, and even the turbulence and boiling of emotions, his mind suddenly started to become noisy Get up. Renly did not rush back to the crew, but walked in circles, practicing again and again, pondering every turn over and over again, and his brain gradually became brighter..
However, talking on paper is just empty air after all, and we still need to demonstrate it in practice to know..
Renly quickly returned to the crew, not noticing the pent-up low pressure from the crew at all. Instead, he went straight to Tony and exchanged a few words. Renly said that he would put in the show first and have a look. Not only Tony needed to taste it, but Renly He also needs to reconsider. He must examine his performance through the lens. Only in this way can he have a more three-dimensional thinking space for the entire performance..
Tony nodded in agreement..
Sami's eyes followed Renly's movements, feeling uneasy. Seeing Renly return to the bus, she quickly ran over, but after only two steps, the makeup artist's shout came over. "Stop, stop, you have to put on your makeup！”
Unlike Renly, Sammy had to wear makeup on stage, and for the role, she also had to wear heavy makeup. Just now, Sammy was crying so much that her makeup was all gone. She completely forgot about it and just wanted to appear on camera and put on makeup. The teacher will naturally not make such a mistake.
In fact, Renly also needs to touch up his makeup. Instead of applying makeup, he needs to wipe away the remaining tear stains on his cheeks to ensure that he can go into the new round of shooting with a fresh look. Renly's makeup artist is also trotting along. Entered the bus and started to get busy.
Sammy's eyes kept turning, looking at the surrounding crew members. Everyone exuded an aura of extreme fatigue and irritability, but had to suppress it, like a volcano that was about to erupt, but suppressed it with all his might. If the weather is calm, it may be suppressed silently, but at the slightest disturbance, the volcano will completely erupt with unimaginable power..
This made Sammy more and more nervous. His throat was horribly dry, and even his swallowing movements were a little inconsistent. "Calm down, the protagonist of this scene is Renly. Just follow his performance. Don't worry." Put on makeup. Even the teacher could notice that Sammy's body was trembling slightly, and the uncontrollable tension was clearly revealed in his violently shaking pupils. In order for the shooting to be completed smoothly, he had to give advice..
Sammy nodded in understanding, not sure whether she heard it or not..
Looking blankly at the restless and depressed crew, the turbulence and commotion of the approaching storm are everywhere, and there is a trace of irritable impatience and contempt between everyone's brows, Sammy's His mood couldn't help but tighten. Even when he saw Betty's encouraging eyes, Sammy still smiled and walked into the bus in a panic. He hesitated whether to apologize to Renly, but in the end he still didn't. I was able to muster up the courage and silently walked to the end of the bus, ready to start shooting..
Soon, the crew started filming again.
The first time, Sammy made a mistake and appeared in a close-up shot of Renly. The performance was interrupted before it even started..
The second time, Sammy made another mistake and jumped the beat in advance. Renly's first performance had just begun, and she had already begun to perform. As a result, everything captured by the director was misplaced..
The third time, Renly made a mistake. The makeup artist went too far and applied powder next to Renly's nose, which made the camera look very weird..
The fourth time, Sammy made another mistake. The previous filming went very smoothly and it was already in the second half, but Sammy forgot his lines and got stuck, resulting in the entire first half of Renly's performance falling short..
……
After returning to filming, it was a disaster. Not only did things not progress smoothly, but it became more difficult. Stumblingly, one scene was repeated so many times, and even a complete shooting was not completed. The atmosphere of the crew I couldn't help but become more impetuous - why continue to shoot? Wouldn't it be enough to use the complete scene from the previous one? Another forty minutes passed in the blink of an eye, and they were still spinning around in circles. What did this mean? Are ghosts hitting the wall?？
“Sammy, calm down. We have been filming this scene for four days. We should know the process better than anyone else. After clearing our brains, we can perform according to the inertia of our intuition. That is enough..”
Renly also noticed something strange about Sammy and couldn't help but comfort him. This seemed to finally make Sammy calm down a little. The next filming went wrong again, and then it was completed smoothly. The whole performance was smooth and smooth, and it looked really good. Couldn't be better, no reason to ask for more.
But this is just the staff's idea, what about Tony? Where's Renly?？
