Chapter 265 Equestrian Genius
The equestrian instructor on the side couldn’t help but praise Anqi when he saw his elegant posture and coordination of his hands and feet.
"It's so good to ride. It took only half a month to perform the movements so well. Not many actors in the crew can do it."
The corner of An Qi's lips curled up when he heard this. I can't help it, she is not the protagonist in this drama, she is just a special guest actor. In addition, love&five is very popular now and there are many announcements. She usually does not stay on the set and only comes over when there is a scene.
Although I spent a lot of money to hire a riding coach from outside, the time I could really squeeze out for practice was very limited. I only practiced three or four times in total, which added up to less than six hours.
Could it be that I really am a riding genius?
An Qi thought happily, completely forgetting how embarrassed she was during the previous few practices. The coach suggested that she stop filming.
Well, isn’t there something like this in those novels about cultivating immortals? It’s a sudden enlightenment. The cultivation world calls this an epiphany. Yes, this is an epiphany.
Although An Qi's mind also flashed across Malu's face, as well as the words he said when ordering.
However, rather than believing that a dish can help people master riding skills, it is better to believe that she will have an epiphany on her own.
The more Anqi rode, the more confident and courageous she became. She began to tap the horse's side quickly inwards with her legs.
The horse beneath him received the rider’s instructions and began to gallop and speed up.
The oncoming strong wind blew Anqi's hair and ancient clothes waving in the wind.
But there was no trace of fear in her heart. Instead, she was so excited that she wanted to shout into the wind.
Because she can feel that the horse under her crotch is connected with her own mind, and the latter's every move is under her control.
A man and a horse were galloping past on the path, and a row of debris appeared in front of them. It should have been temporarily placed there by the prop team, including sandbags and carts.
An Qi originally wanted to let the horse go, but sensing the horse's eagerness to try, An Qi changed his mind and chose to let nature take its course. He did not pull up the reins and bravely stared straight ahead.
The equestrian instructor was the first to sense the danger, and his smiling expression suddenly froze. He quickly got on his horse and wanted to catch up.
He doesn’t want the female star of the popular idol group love&five to have an accident under his nose.
Even if Anqi and her team don’t hold him accountable, love&five fans can praise him.
However, there was already a distance between the two sides, and An Qi was riding so fast that even if he wanted to catch up now, it was already too late.
Anqi and her horse had already arrived in front of the pile of debris. Then Anqi leaned forward, pedaling on the stirrups in the air, and the horse jumped up.
A beautiful arc drew in the air!
I jumped over two wooden carts in one breath, and then fell back to the ground safely.
Seeing this scene, the equestrian instructor who had just climbed on the horse opened his mouth wide, looking like he had seen a ghost.
Not far away, a man wearing a black vest, black-rimmed glasses, and an unsmiling beard also witnessed what just happened.
But he just took a quick glance and saw the back, so he pulled the assistant director aside and asked, "Who was that person who just passed by?"
"Which one?" The assistant director was talking. Communicating with the on-site producer, he didn't pay attention to what happened before. Hearing this, he raised his head and looked in the direction the black vest said. At this time, An Qi had already stopped the horse, and the assistant director was also responsible for actor scheduling. He quickly recognized the person on the horse and replied.
“It’s Miss Anqi from love&five. Her role will be in the next scene. She is probably trying to find feelings in advance...”
At this point, he paused. Not long ago, An Qi's assistant came to see Director Xu to talk about An Qi's next horse riding scene. The assistant wanted to change it to partial shooting, and find a small car with three wheels or something. carrying An Qi on his back.
Only shoot the upper body part, and then shoot the horse separately. Together they are a complete horse riding scene.
This is actually a commonly used shooting technique in the industry. It is not only used in many new dramas after the millennium, but also in old dramas, such as the horseback riding scenes in TVB's "Legend of the Dragon". It was filmed with actors sitting on a merry-go-round.
There is also the chase in "Su Qier", which was also shot while sitting on a tractor.
The biggest advantage of doing this is to protect the actors. After all, riding a horse is a very dangerous thing, and some actors are not good at riding horses. When they ride a real horse, their whole body becomes tense and their expressions become stiff, but they are not on the props. Good acting when relaxed.
It can also save costs for the crew. However, as an internationally renowned director, Director Xu has a generous budget and very strict requirements for actors, and he is also a lover of real-life shooting.
In order to film a blasting scene, four thousand kilograms of explosives were used at one go, razing half of the studio to the ground.
Everyone on the crew was afraid that one day he would go crazy and on a whim, even the murder scene would be shot.
The assistant director has been with Director Xu for 4 years and naturally knows the latter’s temper, but he still persuades him.
"Director Xu, Miss Anqi is just a guest appearance and doesn't have much of a role anyway. How about we take a step back? A good man doesn't fight with women. Love&Five has many fans, even if Anqi appears in the movie. Face, at least it can give us this amount of box office.”
The assistant director raised three fingers.
However, even in the face of such temptation, Director Xu remained indifferent.
The assistant director had a bitter look on his face, but his respect for Director Xu deepened in his heart. Either he could become an international director. This kind of persistence and pursuit is not something that a young director like them can match.
After the result, he heard Director Xu say, "Xiao Tao, what do you think of changing the heroine to An Qi?"
"Ah..." the assistant director was dumbfounded, " Well, it doesn’t have to be this way.”
Having said that, the admiration for Director Xu in his heart has not diminished but increased. Maybe he can become an international director. The speed of embracing traffic, and the ruthlessness and determination to slap himself in the face are not like theirs. Young directors can't compare.
However, he also noticed that the face of the female lead on the side changed drastically and she was trembling. He couldn't bear it and said hurriedly, "Xiaoyu was selected from tens of thousands of people in the sea. Didn't you say that she is the best?" Does she look like Xie Ruru?"
Director Xu touched her stubble, "But she can't ride a horse. She still can't do it after practicing for so long. It seems that she doesn't have this talent. Xie Ruru is a horse bandit. , forget about everything else, how can you do it if you can’t ride a horse well? The audience has no sense of empathy at all. Isn’t this fake at first glance? Why, is it possible that she also wants me to use partial close-ups? ”
Xiaoyu is just a junior at the film school, so how can he have the guts to make demands from a big director like Director Xu like An Qi did.
Hearing that Director Xu was planning to replace himself, he was already confused, his eyes were red, and he was looking pitifully towards the assistant director with pleading eyes.
