Chapter 39 I act as I act
The trial shooting continued the next day, following yesterday’s shooting sequence.
Li Mingyang raised the bar, did everything himself, arranged the scene, and finally took the shot himself.
For a very simple shopping scene, Li Mingyang used eighteen different positions and angles, and it took a whole day to shoot.
Zhang Ruoyun, Liu Yifei, and all the staff behind the scenes were tortured by Li Mingyang.
What makes Li Mingyang happy is that no one complained or complained.
Li Mingyang is very satisfied with Tianxian’s professionalism and learning ability.
If an actor's acting skills are not good, he can slowly improve them. If he can't do it once, he can take more shots until he is satisfied.
Of course, the premise is that it can be polished out.
Zhang Ruoyun is someone who cannot be polished. Her acting skills have solidified at such a young age, and she is still a bit facially paralyzed. She either holds back her acting or relaxes her acting, unable to balance.
The image is not good, the acting skills are solid, there is no hope!
Have to change!
That night, at the film viewing party, Li Mingyang proposed to Zhang Ruoyun that he should act in something else.
Everyone in the house was shocked.
Zhang Ruoyun’s face suddenly collapsed, “Director Li, I didn’t get a penny for filming this movie!”
"It's good to change the protagonist! Do you think I can do it?" Qiao Shan pointed at himself and bared his teeth and smiled.
When everyone heard this, they all laughed out loud, and the atmosphere relaxed a lot.
"This scene has been filmed eighteen times. Liu Yifei is getting better and better, but you are just the opposite. The more you film, the worse you are. You can't even act. What else can you do besides staring at her."
“The audience didn’t buy the tickets to see me.” Zhang Ruoyun said confidently.
“Your mentality is hopeless.”
Zhang Ruoyun said forcefully: "You said I can't act, who can act, but you!"
The next moment, Liu Yifei, Tan Songyun, Xiao Yang, and Qiao Shan all looked at Li Mingyang.
"Squirrel, others don't know how bad Li Mingyang's acting is, but you don't know it either!" Zhang Ruoyun said.
"I believe Mingyang can do it. He is more handsome than you!" Tan Songyun retorted.
Zhang Ruoyun was delighted when he heard this, and gloated to Li Mingyang: "Mingyang, Squirrel said you can do it, do you want to try it?"
Li Mingyang touched his nose silently, not confident in himself.
"The villain succeeds." Tan Songyun snorted coldly.
"Director Li, your acting skills are very good! Come and do it yourself!" Liu Yifei admired Li Mingyang's acting skills when he deceived her mother, and she was still looking forward to starring opposite Li Mingyang.
The immortals also followed suit, and Li Mingyang was heartbroken, "I will act as I act."
......
Generally speaking, the director's acting skills are good.
But not Li Mingyang, he can guide others in acting.
But I can’t act.
When he is fooling people, his acting skills are outstanding, but when it comes to filming, he can't act well.
The drama of life and filming are two different things.
There was a huge crew, cameras, lights, scenery, props, booms... it was really difficult to get into the scene.
During the audition, it was a little better, but it was limited.
He can usually get into the final scene with his image, but it is difficult for him to be selected by the director.
After working as a bit player for ten years, he missed many opportunities in the early stage because of the difficulty of getting into the role.
In the later stage, I couldn’t even play a supporting role.
In the model of traffic stars + veteran actors, capital is extremely tolerant of traffic stars, but it is not tolerant of supporting actors at all, and the requirements are getting higher and higher.
On the third day of the audition, Liu Yifei just arrived on the set.
Li Mingyang called the stylist from the crew over to give Liu Yifei a new hairstyle.
"Doing hair? I feel good like this!" Liu Yifei turned around and shook her long black hair, which fell on her shoulders and slid down silkily. "Your image is so bright, you don't look like an introverted young artistic woman." Li Mingyang said.
Liu Yifei thought about it and let Li Mingyang arrange it.
"Cut your hair short, cut it here, curl it a little, pick a bang, and put it a little above the eyes." Li Mingyang asked.
The female stylist was only in her twenties. She had just graduated from the makeup department of Beijing Film Academy. When faced with Liu Yifei’s enviable long hair, she didn’t know how to cut it.
"Hey, why don't you take action? Do you want me to do it myself?" Li Mingyang said impatiently.
"I... don't know how to cut it. What if it gets damaged..." the female stylist said solemnly.
"Trouble."
Li Mingyang waved his hand, motioning the female stylist to go away, and picked up the scissors and comb.
Liu Yifei suddenly quit! Jumped up! "Go away! I don't want you to cut it!"
"Sit down, I have learned."
"Can you also cut hair?"
A good stylist is more expensive than an ordinary actor. In order to save money, Li Mingyang deliberately learned it.
Li Mingyang said nothing and patted the back of the chair.
Liu Yifei's face was full of doubts, and she sat down doubtfully, "If you cut my hair, I will cry for you."
Li Mingyang spread Liu Yifei's hair, It feels smooth, like silk.
Looking at the mirror, Li Mingyang began to cut.
Liu Yifei is still willing to sacrifice for the sake of the movie, but she cannot tolerate others ruining her hair.
After a while, Liu Yifei's frown relaxed and Danfeng's watery eyes were full of surprise.
“You really know how to cut hair!”
“It’s just average, I’ll have to get it professionally done later... Your hair is of really good quality, like silk.”
“Of course.”
After cutting her hair, the female stylist began to curl Liu Yifei's hair and pull out her bangs.
"Be gentle, don't use so much force, use skillful strength, forget it... let me do it." Li Mingyang was speechless, it was so painful for the newcomer.
Liu Yifei raised her eyes and looked at Li Mingyang who was curling her hair, "You are so young in this crew..."
"If you want to be amateur, just say so."
"It's not good to be too straightforward." Liu Yifei glanced at the helpless stylist next to her.
"I never ask my teammates to do things that I can't do."
"Do you like Jordan?" Liu Yifei's eyes lit up.
“I don’t like it, I like Rukawa Kaede.”
“I like it too, I have a full set of Slam Dunk Master at home.”
Li Mingyang’s eyes lit up, “ If I borrow it and use it, I will buy it. It will save a lot of money.”
What a boring guy.
Liu Yifei gave a perfunctory hum and stopped talking.
After pulling up the bangs, the rest of the dyeing was handed over to the stylist. Li Mingyang guided and put forward his own opinions.
At around nine o'clock in the morning, Liu Yifei's new hairstyle was finally finished. She was not very satisfied because her bangs covered her forehead.
Li Mingyang feels good, a bit like a village girl.
During this period, Li Mingyang asked another makeup artist to give himself a curly hair style similar to Mai.
After getting their hair done, Li Mingyang and Liu Yifei came to the shooting scene.
The shooting content was still the same as the previous two days. No adjustments were needed. Xiao Yang, who was promoted to assistant director, said "action" and the shooting officially started.
The prerequisite for self-writing, directing and acting is to have a complete director team or an excellent assistant director.
Forget about the director's team, there are not many people in the crew.
