"Good luck with the start!"
At an auspicious time and on an auspicious day, after a complete start-up process, the crew of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" officially started filming.
After the booting ceremony was over, Zhang Yuan and Liu Qianqian went to the dressing room to put on makeup and change clothes.
After all, it’s the hero and heroine. They have their own dressing room and dressing room, but it’s also very small.
Liu Qianqian's conditions are better. Her family also owns a GMC RV. They drove it to Xiangshan with her and stayed near the set. If necessary, she could get in the car to rest and touch up her makeup at any time.
And in order to ensure privacy, this car is usually only used by herself, and outsiders are not allowed to get in.
“Woof woof!”
Zhang Yuan’s makeup and costume were relatively easy to do, and it only took more than half an hour to complete.
Thinking that nothing was wrong, he picked up the script and sat outside the dressing room door waiting for Xiao Longnu.
At this moment, a gray-white Schnauzer puppy came to his feet, opened its mouth and barked a few times.
"CANDY, don't bark!"
Liu Qianxi's voice came from the women's dressing room. Obviously, this was her dog.
“You can also bring a dog to the set. The heroine is different.”
Zhang Yuan rubbed the dog’s head angrily. The dog was unfamiliar with him and was obviously a little wary, so he took two steps back. , and wanted to show his teeth.
"No cruel brother." Liu Qianxi, who had just put on Xiao Longnu's white top and had not yet put on her hair condom, came out and pointed at the dog.
Zhang Yuan had a dark face.
Brother, am I, Yang Guo, equal to Gouzi?
"Come, come to sister, hey, hey, hey..." Sissi said, picking up a beef stick from the table nearby and hooking the dog over.
Oh, she is the sister and I am the brother, okay, it doesn’t count as a disadvantage.
"Isn't it cute?" Liu Qianxi squatted on the ground and asked while feeding.
"Cute, as cute as his sister."
"Hehehehe." She smiled and took out a photo from her pocket, with her in the middle and three dogs and three cats beside her.
Zhang Yuan sighed in his heart, raising so many pets and still living in a big villa.
Although she is in China, she still lives a lighthouse-style chic life. It is really cool that her family conditions are good.
“Look, look, this is a stray cat that my mother picked up.”
"I gave them names."
"This one is called Maomao, this one is called Mimi, and this one is called Mao Xiaomio."
Zhang Yuan:...
You are so good at picking out names.
What should he do? He can only support him with high emotional intelligence.
"It sounds so nice."
"Yes, my mother also said that I am too casual."
It seems that Liu Xiaoli is still a normal person.
"Sissi, the hood is on."
"Oh." She responded and stood up nervously.
That hood was very heavy, weighing six or seven pounds.
After all, it is super long hair that hangs down to the ankles, and it is made very densely, so of course it is heavy.
And in order to achieve good shooting results, all the hair extensions were made with real hair at a very low cost. This set of hair alone costs tens of thousands.
The clothes she wore were also custom-made and were hand-embroidered by weavers from Suzhou and Hangzhou, which cost tens of thousands.
Big Beard’s props and costumes are really high-end, far surpassing those of Xiangjiang and most mainland production crews.
The reason Liu Qianqian was nervous about wearing a hood was because it was too heavy.
When taking makeup photos, she felt her shoulders were sore and her neck was heavy after just wearing it for a few hours. When taking off the hair condom, it accidentally pulled her hair, which made her cry in pain.
And she would have to wear it for several months. Not only that, but she also had to wear Wia while wearing this hair. She felt uncomfortable just thinking about it.
But she is stubborn. Stubbornness also has the advantage of being stubborn.
As soon as I gritted my teeth, it was over.
The first scene was shot inside the ancient tomb.
The ancient tomb scene is also one of the main scenes of the film. Of course, it will be built in the film and television city and can be visited by tourists in the future.
But from this ancient tomb scene, we can see how wealthy the bearded man is.
The screen wall area, the coffin area, the ice bed area, the cave area, each part has been carefully crafted into a real scene.
Of course, there is also the largest "center of the lake" area, which is a "tree house"-like building erected in a large body of water, with a large piece of grass next to it where you can stay.
The entire scene covers several thousand square meters, and the construction alone cost millions.
And this lake is not a fake lake that is knee-deep, but if one person comes in, Zhang Yuan can only show his head when he falls in.
Coincidentally, the first scene of the crew was also the first scene of Yang Guo, Zhang Yuan, in the film.
After all, the first scene has to involve both the male and female protagonists.
The director also needs to know how the two of them are performing.
Liu Qianqian has recently been reading the novel "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" over and over again, and she has put in a lot of effort.
Zhang Yuan knew it even more.
"Come on, all departments are getting ready."
""The Legend of the Condor Heroes", the first scene, the first shot, the first time...ACTION!" Yu Min personally held the big Trumpet, shouted!
The bearded man was also watching.
Boom!
More than a dozen fill lights from around came towards the two of them.
Yu Min is known as a lighting madman. The number of fill lights he uses is two to three times that of ordinary directors.
And I especially like to fill in the light behind the actors.
So as long as it is a costume drama he shoots, when the actor moves, his hair will be all white and bright, and that is the effect of the fill light.
"Auntie!" Zhang Yuan, who was squatting on the ground, shouted loudly.
At this time, he was wearing a blue robe, a beige waistcoat, and brown cotton boots on his feet.
His hair was tied up high with a cloth band of the same color as his boots. In order to look playful, the makeup artist even scattered some of his hair around his headband.
Zhang Yuan deliberately adjusted his movements, voice, and even his eyes.
Because at this time, he was 16-year-old Yang Guo.
A young man who has been weird since he was a child, has complicated thoughts, and has gone through many hardships, finally found his "home" in the ancient tomb.
Even in Jin Yong's works, the personality of Yang Guo is relatively complex.
Zhang Yuan stood up suddenly and appeared in front of the camera: "I finally mastered this dragnet style!"
He was the only one in this first shot, Liu Qianqian was waiting nearby, sitting In my own little chair.
In the first scene, there were naturally a lot of actors and staff who came to watch. Zhang Yuan stood up and spoke a line. In the eyes of others, he had the agility and agility of a young man, and he did have a bit of youthful spirit. .
But Liu Qianqian on the side was stunned.
“Why is it a bit like brother Xiaoyao, but not the same?”
For Zhang Yuan, there is a big advantage in playing the role of Yang Guo.
That is, the character Li Xiaoyao actually has a lot in common with Yang Guo.
He grew up without a father or a mother. He is a master at flirting with girls and has many beauties. His wife/aunt disappears from time to time. After finding him, she often talks coldly to him and wants to force him to leave. In doing so, he also wants the other party to forget about him. .
And their debut ages, one is sixteen and the other is nineteen, are about the same.
But the difference is that Yang Guo is burdened with too much hatred, national hatred, family hatred, the hatred of "killing his wife", and the hatred of "breaking his arm".
Li Xiaoyao is mainly a "wife-controller", but other things are relatively good.
Liu Qianqian thought of the past between Ling'er and Xiaoyao, and thought that at least this time, she and Zhang Yuan would have a less miserable ending.
Speaking of this, I have to say that the readers back then were very enthusiastic.
Originally, Mr. Jin planned to kill Xiao Longnu during the cliff jumping scene, and there would be no subsequent plot sixteen years later.
The fact that white fish can detoxify love flower poison is quite ridiculous. There was no foreshadowing in the previous plot, it was just a temporary setting added later.
After Xiao Longnu's death, Yang Guo's official consort should be Guo Xiang, the second daughter of Guo Jing and Huang Rong.
Guo Fu cut off Yang Guo's arm, which meant that the Guo family owed Yang Guo, and Guo Xiang promised to repay it in person. Moreover, the temperaments of Xi Kuang and Xiao Dong Xie are indeed compatible.
However, the readers refused to agree, so they had to "send the blade", forcing Mr. Jin to modify the plot.
In fact, Mr. Jin has always been dissatisfied with this change, because Guo Xiang, whom he loved very much, ended up being lonely for the rest of his life, which also made Zhang Zhenren a loner.
Just as Zhang Junbao lost his life when he saw Yang Guo, he also lost his life when he saw the heroine Guo Xiang.
Anyway, you will just make a mistake one by one, and it will be a cycle of death.
Speaking of which, if Master Zhang is so powerful, might it be related to the fact that he never married a wife and had children, and never revealed his vitality?
Anyway, when I was writing "The Eight Parts of the Dragon" later, A'Zhu was slapped to death by Qiao Feng, and readers stopped writing.
But this time, Mr. Jin did not compromise and withstood the pressure to prevent A'Zhu from being "resurrected", which added a bit of tragedy to the character of Qiao Feng.
“Stuck!” Yu Min nodded, not bad.
This guy has some real ability after all.
Performed the agile feeling of little Yang Guo.
Zhang Yuan looked sideways and realized that Yu Min didn't comment on his performance, thinking that he seemed to have done the right thing.
In the previous life, Huang Xiaoming's Yang Guo had mixed reviews, but what is certain is that in the early stages, the feeling of the young man was played by him in a greasy and very exaggerated way.
Coupled with the dark skin color, it gives people a very bad impression.
Zhang Yuan deliberately avoided the problems of skin color and greasiness, and tried his best to make the characters more agile.
He also specially watched Hua Ge’s version back then, which was also mainly handsome and agile.
He has both successful templates and negative teaching materials, so he can naturally be more accurate.
However, Zhang Yuan always felt that Yu Min was a little too calm, so calm that it was a bit abnormal.
"Come on, Xiao Longnu enters the painting, get ready."
At this moment, Sissi stepped forward, and the camera position was adjusted to the side of the two of them.
"I have mastered the dragnet style!" Zhang Yuan once again performed a palm move.
This is another major advantage he has over Huang Xiaoming. He has a good foundation in kung fu and his postures are better looking.
Hurrah!
At this time, Liu Qianqian’s eyebrows were stern, which was in huge contrast to her usual cheerful image.
And I have grown a lot these days, coupled with martial arts training, and eating more.
Her current face shape is obviously much rounder than that of Wang Yuyan's period.
At that time, it was a pointed goose egg, but now it is a standard goose egg, which looks more dignified and relatively close to the character.
In fact, among the three heroines she has played, Wang Yuyan, Zhao Linger, and Xiao Longnu.
The biggest contrast between Xiao Longnu and her nature is that she is actually more like Zhao Ling'er and Anu.
But when Zhang Yuan saw her this time, he did find that she was much calmer and quieter than before. He didn't know whether it was because of the role or the experience.
His arms moved his sleeves and threw out a strong wind, hitting Zhang Yuan who was not far away from him.
"Ah!"
Zhang Yuan immediately fell to the ground and fell firmly onto the weeds.
“Ouch, my butt.” Zhang Yuan covered his buttocks with both hands while looking at Xiao Longnu with one eye.
Liu Qianqian had never seen him show off like this before and couldn't help but chuckle.
"Xiao Longnu, don't laugh, start over." Yu Min called out.
"I performed well, what do you enjoy?" Zhang Yuan stood up and patted the dirt on his body.
"It's acting, be serious!"
"Giggle...you looked so cute just now." Liu Qianqian covered her mouth with one hand: "You're not usually like this."
"Yang Guo, Xiao Longnu, get ready, do it again!"
Zhang Yuan gestured towards her to zip up her mouth. Sissi immediately stopped smiling, and her posture and expression quickly returned to Xiao Longnu's. in status.
"She is much stronger than before."
"She has entered the state much faster, and it seems that she has learned a lot in school."
Still shaking Yang Guo away with one sleeve Flying, Zhang Yuan covered his butt and rolled on the ground again.
“Get up!” Xiao Longnu shouted expressionlessly.
“Yes!” Zhang Yuan immediately stood up like a carp. Without using his arms, he pulled onions on dry ground with the strength of his waist and stood up instantly.
"Okay!" Zhao Jian, the martial arts director on the directing team, said immediately.
“I didn’t design a martial arts move for him to stand up directly, he designed it himself.”
“It seems that this character’s skills are more agile.” Zhao Jian and Zhang Yuan also did the same. We are old acquaintances, so naturally we are more attracted to him.
When Yu Min heard this, there was a trace of displeasure between his brows.
I am the director, and he designs the actions himself, and the effect is even better. Doesn’t it make me look incompetent?
"Change the angle and do it again." Director Yu suppressed his emotions and remained calm.
"Sissi, I will take a picture of your face in a moment."
"Your expression just now was too dull."
"Little Dragon Girl should be a little disgusted with Yang Guo's naughtiness. So, but helpless, and a little fond in the helplessness. After all, the ancient tomb is cold, and Yang Guo's arrival has brought him a lot of happiness."
"But she has a weak temper, and she cannot wear this happiness on her face. "Enter." Zhang Yuan slowly explained to her.
"Disgust, helplessness, love, and also happiness, but can't show it on my face..." Liu Qianqian thought, how should I act out the four emotions?
Garbled characters appeared in her eyes, and they were almost overclocked and smoking.
Hey... Zhang Yuan sighed. Expressions, especially micro-expressions, require long-term training. You must learn to accurately mobilize every muscle on the face, so that complex emotions can be perfectly expressed.
The most famous example is the expression of teacher You Benchang, half of his face smiling and half of his face crying after he played Jigong after he burned down his ancestral home.
That’s masterful facial control!
"Forget it, just keep your brows unwrinkled and don't move anywhere else." Zhang Yuan understood that Liu Qianqian didn't have this ability yet.
The only way to do it is to be lazy, that is, not to make any expression.
It would be nice not to.
When the camera turned on again, the two re-interpreted what they just said.
Even if acting is a one-step process, the same scene often needs to be performed many times.
Different camera positions, different angles, close-ups of faces of different characters.
"Little Dragon Girl performed well, and the details in her eyes are very good." Yu Min praised a little after watching the replay.
But no matter how well Zhang Yuan performed, he did not express any opinions.
"Thank you." Sissi smiled and shook her sleeves. She seemed to like this outfit very much.
She understood that the director could praise her mostly because Zhang Yuan made a few remarks just now.
[Received thanks from Liu Qianqian, +1 for dance basics! 】
A few hours later, the opening scene was completed, and it was time for lunch.
After eating and resting for more than ten minutes, the makeup artist came to Zhang Yuan's side.
"Zhang Yuan, the director said that the afternoon scene will be temporarily adjusted."
"Now I want to help you change your costume."
Adjustment?
Changing clothes?
Zhang Yuan looked at the other party in surprise.
At this time, the assistant director also came to him and handed a new script into his hands.
"Zhang Yuan, the work of the crew is changeable, I hope you understand."
"Here are the lines and the plot. Please prepare. We will start shooting directly in the afternoon."
Zhang Yuan was stunned for a moment, then put on a smile.
"No problem, we should cooperate with the crew's work."
After the assistant director left, Zhang Yuan's expression gradually turned cold.
“I said Yu Min was short-sighted, but he was so quiet today.”
"It turns out that you have been waiting for me here for a long time!"
