For the audience, between a mediocre eighty and an innovative sixty, the former is definitely better-looking and more suitable for the audience. However, creators cannot always choose a mediocre 80%. A mediocre 80% will always be just an 80%, while a 60% with innovative value may one day become a 90%.
For actors, compared with a more difficult and highly completed role performance and a good work, the former is definitely more helpful to the actor and can achieve the reputation of "acting school" . However, whether an actor wants to be an "actor" or an "actor" in the hearts of the audience depends on the latter, and the latter is the prerequisite.
Lu Yanhe will protect his character and not let it be messed with. But Lu Yanhe also respects the principle that the work is greater than the actor. He always believes that if the work is good enough, other good talents will be really good.
Why did you choose to take on the movie "Tropical Rain"?
Lu Yanhe told different people different reasons, various reasons. In the final analysis, it was this script that touched him when he read it. Why is it triggered?
Because he has become so famous, but among the many movie scripts he has received, like "Tropical Rainy Season", they simply and seriously tell the story of the growth of a teenager, the profile and changes of a family, and the story of the person himself. There are only a handful of scripts, and this is the best of them all.
——You can obviously get a bigger production and a better team, why did you choose it?
——Because I have those, I want to act in them, and there are a lot of good projects for him to act in, but for scripts like "Tropical Rainy Season", apart from this one, I have never encountered another one.
Now, Huang Tianlin came to discuss with him how to present this scene in this movie better, even if it means sacrificing his performance space, so what?
Actors cannot touch the hearts of the audience only in the performance space.
Just by listening to Huang Tianlin's description, Lu Yanhe imagined how this scene in the movie would appear.
The way he imagined it was completely in line with his expectations for the movie.
Then why didn’t he cooperate?
“Actually—” Lu Yanhe hesitated.
Huang Tianlin was relieved in his heart. Sure enough, Lu Yanhe still didn't fully accept it.
How could a big-name actor allow himself to appear as such a vague figure in a movie, with no close-ups and no performance?
"Say." Huang Tianlin thought to himself, if it doesn't work, just add two close-ups.
Lu Yanhe’s performance is indeed good.
He didn't say during the day that he was very satisfied with the last look scene given to Lu Yanhe after he was slapped.
He is indeed a good actor. Not any actor with good acting skills can give a scene like that.
Just as Huang Tianlin was thinking this, he heard Lu Yanhe say: "I'm thinking, in this scene, why don't I delete all my two lines and my brother's words? In this scene, no one will speak. In action."
Huang Tianlin was stunned, "Huh?"
Lu Yanhe: "In the script, my younger brother came up. I asked him to go down, and he whispered sorry, but I ignored him. He came over again, and I pushed him away again, and he went down aggrievedly, on the floor beside the bed. I sat down on him. After a while, I softened my heart and let him go to bed. Here it comes. I'm thinking that if this scene is shot with a fixed camera, then all the changes in the scene should be shown with movements, without a single line, and this seems to be more in line with the mentality of the two people. Everyone wants to save face and refuses to apologize, but my younger brother wants to talk to his elder brother Expressing apology, the elder brother is still not really angry with the younger brother, and will forgive him. Using this kind of physical interaction, it may be more... how should I put it? It is less direct and more touching. .”
Huang Tianlin was stunned.
Originally, Lu Yanhe had a few lines in this scene, but now he proposed to delete them all...
In that scene, there were really only the silhouettes of two people left.
"In this way, you basically can't be seen by the audience in this scene."
Especially Lu Yanhe, except for entering the door, going to bed, and lying down, the audience basically His face was no longer visible, the light was dim and nothing could be seen clearly.
Lu Yanhe smiled and said: "Isn't this good? Chinese people, us Chinese, actually have more implicit emotions, not so direct. The darker the situation, the more likely we are to go. Express your love and tolerance for your family, right?"
Huang Tianlin nodded.
He actually agreed with what Lu Yanhe said. Sometimes, in a play, silence is better than sound. The lens language of this scene has been changed like this. Silent is indeed better than sound.
However, Huang Feng was confused. He didn't know how to act.
Huang Tianlin had to give a demonstration on the spot with Lu Yanhe to let Huang Feng learn.
Huang Tianlin poked Lu Yanhe's shoulder with his hand. Lu Yanhe immediately pushed his shoulder and pushed his hand away.
Huang Feng: "Why did you poke him with your finger?"
Huang Tianlin: "Because you just had an argument with him during the day, and you are embarrassed to talk to him directly at this time."
Huang Feng: "Then just say I'm sorry."
"You can say , isn’t the younger brother you played? I can say it."
"Why? If you feel you are wrong, just say sorry."
"Because he doesn't think he is wrong, but he is embarrassed to say sorry. ." Huang Tianlin explained.
Huang Feng frowned, "Does he think he was wrong?"
"What do you think? Do you think my brother thinks he was wrong?"
Huang Feng thought about it seriously. After a long time, I finally came to a conclusion: "I don't know."
"Then just act."
So, I came directly.
When Huang Tianlin asked Lu Yanhe to open the door, he must stop the door in a certain position so that exactly half of the light from outside the house could shine on Lu Yanhe's bed.
As a result, I took three photos just for the action of opening the door.
Huang Feng is indeed savvy in acting.
Although he actually didn’t understand why the younger brother he played did what he did, Huang Tianlin told him step by step, where to go, what his younger brother thought, and how he should act. Huang Feng basically The performance was performed according to Huang Tianlin's guidance to the letter.
However, because this scene only has one camera and one shot, Huang Tianlin wanted to shoot a long shot and shoot it in one go without any editing in the middle. Therefore, if there is any flaw or problem in the middle, it will be a problem. No, you have to start over.
This night, we started shooting at 7:30 and continued until late at night, almost midnight.
Huang Feng didn't know how many yawns he yawned.
When the child is still growing.
Lu Yanhe said to Huang Tianlin: "How about we shoot this tonight? Huang Feng looks like he has lost his energy."
Huang Tianlin said: "But this scene was not filmed. The effect I want.”
"We'll continue shooting tomorrow."
"I have other scenes to shoot tomorrow."
Lu Yanhe: "Then the day after tomorrow."
"You have it every day You only gave us seven days to film the scene," Huang Tianlin said.
Lu Yanhe: “…”
Huang Tianlin's expression seemed to say, "You can't blame me."
Lu Yanhe: "I really can't finish shooting, so I'll shoot for a few more days."
Huang Tianlin looked at him in surprise.
Lu Yanhe: "Have a rest and call it a day."
Huang Tianlin: "Okay, call it a day!"
-
No one wanted to stay up late. They thought they were going to have a hard fight tonight, but suddenly they heard the director calling it a day and everyone in the department looked happy.
Huang Feng fell asleep directly on his mother's back.
Lu Yanhe and Wang Biao went back together.
As we were about to arrive, we could see from a distance that the lights were on in the house. Wang Biao suddenly remembered and said, "Sister Siqi is already here. She sent me a message an hour ago. , I forgot.”
Lu Yanhe was a little surprised, "Isn't she coming tomorrow?"
"It seems that the matter went smoothly and was settled in advance." Wang Biao said.
Lu Yanhe was a little sleepy at first, but as soon as he knew that Chen Siqi was coming, he stopped being sleepy immediately.
"Do I have to get up early tomorrow morning?" he asked.
Wang Biao nodded, "Yes, I have to go out for styling at seven o'clock tomorrow." "Oh." Lu Yanhe yawned, "I'm so tired."
Wang Biao smiled and asked: "How about I ask the crew for a morning off?"
"What the hell, I can't do this."
"You promised them that they can shoot for a few more days, and they are not so anxious."
"It's two different things." Lu Yanhe shook his head, "Although I really want to take a leave."
Wang Biao knew Lu Yanhe's style on the crew and didn't dissuade him.
"But, Brother Lu, you will have a whole day of acting tomorrow. Sister Siqi can only walk around the neighborhood by herself."
"Well, you can accompany her tomorrow. I just need Brother Dong here."
-
When Lu Yanhe entered the house, Chen Siqi must have just taken a shower and was sitting on the balcony letting her hair dry naturally.
She was only wearing a white silk pajamas, which was very loose. She was lying half on a sofa chair with her laptop on her lap and was typing on the keyboard. Judging from the frequency of her typing, she should be replying to emails.
"You are finally back!" Upon hearing the voice, Chen Siqi jumped up immediately and ran back to the living room in surprise.
Lu Yanhe immediately took two steps forward, hugged her, and subconsciously spun around in circles.
This is something the two of them have never done before.
After completing the circle, Lu Yanhe was stunned and could not react.
Zou Dong and Wang Biao seemed to have seen nothing, so they took their things and went back to their respective rooms.
Lu Yanhe put Chen Siqi down, and when he thought that Wang Biao and Zou Dong had seen the scene just now, he smiled and scratched his head.
Seeing him like this, Chen Siqi raised the corners of his mouth, took his hand, and pulled him into the room.
-
As a result, Chen Siqi was too lazy to go around alone the next day.
She directly asked Wang Biao to take her to the set.
Visiting class.
Lu Yanhe’s girlfriend suddenly appeared, surprising everyone.
No one received the news in advance.
After Huang Tianlin learned about it, he immediately smiled thoughtfully at Lu Yanhe.
No wonder he was urged to call it a day last night.
Huang Tianlin also came here at Lu Yanhe's age, so he can certainly understand why Lu Yanhe rushed back.
He told Yuan Hai: "I said he suddenly promised to give us a few more days of shooting time."
"Where are you thinking again?" Yuan Hai asked with a smile.
Huang Tianlin said: "Believe it or not, he will definitely ask for leave from us these days to spend time with his girlfriend."
Yuan Hai: "Why do you think so? You are a villain."
Huang Tianlin: "Just wait and see."
He seems to be very confident in his judgment.
Yuan Hai: "Okay, I'll wait. If he doesn't ask for leave, I'll see what you say."
-
As a result, even if Chen Siqi came to the set, it did not affect Lu Yanhe's filming at all.
Chen Siqi did not go up to Lu Yanhe, and Lu Yanhe did not talk to Chen Siqi while preparing for the play.
Chen Siqi just found a chair at the scene, sat in the corner, looked at his phone, and chatted with the crew.
When Lu Yanhe was acting, she was watching from the sidelines.
It was not until lunch time that Lu Yanhe and Chen Siqi sat together.
"Why don't you go for a walk nearby?"
"I'm tired, I don't want to move, and I don't want to go around." Chen Siqi said, "It's good to just sit here, look at my phone, look at you Acting, watching the best actor act live, what a rare opportunity."
Chen Siqi's teasing made Lu Yanhe shake his head helplessly.
"By the way, have you said hello to the director and the others? Have you met them?"
"Well, Wang Biao took me to say hello to them." Chen Siqi said, "That Director Huang Tianlin is a bit interesting.”
"What's interesting?"
"It's quite personal." Chen Siqi said, "Didn't you tell me that he is quite resistant to you because of your status as a big star? He is quite... ...How should I say, respect? He actually knew that I was promoting the release of "Jump Up" in various overseas countries, and he showed respect to me."
Lu Yanhe: "...What the hell is he doing to you? state Why is his attitude towards me so different?"
Chen Siqi said with a smile: "Why do I think he is trying to show his kindness in reverse? , I can’t apologize to you, so I used this method to surround Wei and save Zhao?”
Lu Yanhe: “…Is that so? Then I don’t know what he thinks.”
Chen Siqi: "How did you feel about filming this movie? Did you expect it to meet your expectations?"
"I don't know yet, but I felt comfortable during the two days of filming on the crew. Huang Tianlin understands drama very well and knows how to use lenses and vision to present the feeling of drama," Lu Yanhe said, "There is no director I have worked with before. He uses a lot of lenses to present a story. Moreover, his lens design, especially the shooting angle, is very thoughtful. I think after the movie comes out, I don’t know how it will be overall, but I should see something else in it. It’s a look that has never appeared in film and television works.”
Chen Siqi looked at Lu Yanhe in surprise.
"Your evaluation is already very high."
"Yeah." Lu Yanhe nodded, "The main thing is that he surprised me. He is a director who really understands movie lenses. A lot. The director, the movies he makes are good and good-looking, but most of the director’s films are good-looking because of their good rhythm and narrative perspective. Unlike him, he is very special.”
Chen Siqi: "Can you let me see the already shot material this afternoon?"
Lu Yanhe said: "I'll ask him if he can first see the conflict scene we shot all day long yesterday. ”
“You finished work so late last night. What did you take pictures at night?”
"The conflict was filmed during the day and the reconciliation was filmed at night. However, the scene at night was not filmed." Lu Yanhe said, "I temporarily adjusted the shooting idea and have to continue filming tonight."
“How many takes will you take for this scene?”
"That's a lot. I haven't counted it. A dozen or dozens?" Lu Yanhe said. "Anyway, I have been tortured by him and asked to do it again."
"Is he so strict?"
“He is not strict, he is detail-oriented.” Lu Yanhe was also helpless, “I was filming a scene at night where he pushed the door open and entered the room, so that the light shining into the room would stop exactly where he wanted. That's what I do One action took nearly half an hour to shoot."
Chen Siqi: "...You have a really good temper."
"I might be impatient if I had to change it. Because I know what effect he wants, and I also want to get the best effect, so it’s not my good temper, it’s him who made me feel that this scene can really be shot better.”
< br>
In the final analysis, it is because Lu Yanhe himself is an actor who hopes to perform better.
In order to achieve this goal, he can continue to toss himself.
He is willing.
While the two were chatting, Yuan Hai suddenly came over with a plate of chicken that should have been freshly roasted, and said with a smile: "This is our freshly roasted chicken. Try it, our local cooking method." .”
“Thank you, Mr. Yuan.”
"That's so considerate."
The chicken was still intact, so Yuan Hai put on plastic gloves and sat aside to help them tear the chicken open so that they could eat easily.
Yuan Hai asked while tearing the chicken: "Siqi, are you going to accompany Yan He here after filming, and then go back together?"
"Me? I can't, no. So much time, I have to leave the day after tomorrow," Chen Siqi said with a smile.
