Chapter 27 So that’s it
“Hey!”
A figure pushed open the door to the lounge, lowered his voice but was completely unable to control his curiosity and excitement. Like a monkey, he couldn’t calm down. He asked eagerly after shouting to attract attention.
“Have you seen that handsome guy in the shed? Who is that?”
When men gather together, they discuss women, and when women gather together, they also discuss men. Although the manifestations are different, the boiling and churning of hormones is similar.
"Him! That's him!"
"That parachute!"
"Ah, the vase."
"Yes, that's the vase!"
"I arrived at the filming set early today. I heard from Scott from the production team that he came to visit the set and later studied the positioning."
"They didn't realize who he was at all, and they thought he was the son of some executive."
"But he is so charming."
"Yes, yes, yes, he is kind." The temperament of The Talented Mr. Ripley. "
"Ah, let me tell you, why is it a bit familiar? It's the "The Talented Mr. Ripley", Jude Law, right? "
boom!
There was a commotion.
After an instant burst of energy, it penetrated the thin door panel of the studio and shocked the outside. Everyone quickly closed their mouths and looked at each other, but the excitement in their eyes and cheeks lingered.
Or, gossip?
After a brief moment of silence, it surged again in a low and restless manner, and began to jump on tiptoes in excitement because it could not scream loudly.
“Yeah, it’s really good-looking.”
"That's right."
"This vase is really beautiful. It seems that David is asking for mercy and getting mercy."
"What David, it should be Marta, she is looking forward to it There is a vase."
"A vase, even if it is useless, is still pleasing to the eye."
"Who knows, maybe our crew can produce one like the one next door. George-Clooney”
George Clooney also started his career on the small screen. He became popular with his role as a sexy surgeon in "ER", and then made a guest appearance in "Friends", which launched his career as an actor.
This weekend, a news that is comparable to an April Fool's Day joke spread. The entire "Friends" crew has learned about the urgent change of guests. Everyone has their own guesses and opinions.
But now, seeing real people, my views have quietly changed——
That’s it.
Things that were originally incomprehensible and unacceptable seemed to make sense.
At least, that was the case for the small group of women in front of them, their eyes showing knowing joy.
"George Clooney? That's not true. You are so rare and strange. Do you think anyone can become George Clooney? It's not that easy to be a vase."
"Ah... …That’s right, there are vases like Gwyneth-Paltrow, but there are also vases like Brad Pitt.”
“It seems that today’s work can be the same. It’s a feast for the eyes.”
“I don’t know what the character of this vase is. If it is too dull and clumsy, it will ruin the scenery.”
"Hey, is it true? I just like handsome guys who are more honest."
"Are you the Ben Affleck type?"
"What, Ben Affleck is honest? Do you have any misunderstanding about the adjective "honest"? "I think she has a misunderstanding about Affleck."
"Haha, hahaha. ”
Chirping, unable to contain my excitement——
To a certain extent, there is no difference between the TV series crew and ordinary office workers. Although the work content is different, they also complete their work diligently from nine to five. The screws are not as bright as imagined.
For them, they also need a little fresh gossip to stimulate their nerves.
Especially Monday.
Like thousands of social animals, the crew also hates and even hates Mondays, which marks the beginning of another busy and stressful week.
Moreover, due to the recent pressure on ratings at the end of the season, the entire crew has been feeling tense, making Monday even more difficult.
The worst thing is that not only the crew of "Friends", but also the crews of other TV dramas that are busy filming nearby, each and every other are half-assed, so that during lunch breaks or cigarette breaks, the shadows of the photography base are always filled with complaints. , the working atmosphere is really not great.
Perhaps the only thing that can alleviate Monday's stress a little is gossip.
No, one or two of them came together. Even if they were not interested at all, they would use this excuse to fish and delay the start of work.
The story of "Friends" is set in New York, and mainly takes place in a cafe called "Central-Perk" - not "Central-Park", naturally. , viewers thought the series should be filmed in New York.
However, it is not.
Since the first episode of the first season, "Friends" has been filming at Studio 24 at the Warner Bros. Filming Base in Burbank, Los Angeles.
All scenes in the series were shot in the studio.
Everything happens in Los Angeles.
This is also one of the charms of Hollywood. As long as they want, they can build any scene that human imagination can touch in the Los Angeles studio.
For example, a city.
And, not only that, "Friends" has another special feat.
Canned laughter can be heard in sitcoms in the 1980s and 1990s. In this way, the production team created a relaxed atmosphere and used canned laughter to drive the audience's urge to laugh. , laughter can often lead to laughter, even if it is not so successful.
"Friends" is no exception.
But with the brilliance of the series, more and more viewers have fallen deeply in love with this series and put themselves into it, sincerely hoping to visit "Central Welfare".
So David Klein came up with an idea to open the application for on-site spectatorship, allowing the audience to sit in the studio and watch the filming in person, creating real laughter.
Of course, the production team will still add canned laughter in the later stage to ensure the effect of the program, but it must be admitted that comedy is a performance that needs to be echoed. The real laughter on the scene can often inspire the actors' performance state, and even occasionally It can also burst out sparks and create unexpected scenes.
Although the number of spectators at the filming site was not large, only 150 people, it still became an intuitive indicator for "Friends" to test the quality of the series, and has now become a very important part of the series.
Later, this model was also borrowed by other sitcom crews and became popular in Hollywood, such as "The Big Bang Theory".
Because of this, the filming process of "Friends" is slightly different. The actors need to arrive on the set on time to rehearse their moves and scenes. After becoming familiar with the entire filming process, they need to let the audience in and prepare. Shoot.
After all, filming is different from live broadcasting. Mistakes are still allowed, reshoots are allowed, and repeated shooting is allowed. However, in order to ensure the quality of the shooting effect, the actors and crew members still need to adopt a live broadcast attitude.
An error occurred? Can.
But it is still necessary to reduce the number of mistakes as much as possible, and ensure the chemical reaction of each performance to ensure that the audience can enjoy it, instead of filming a scene over and over again thirty times, and the fun will evolve into A kind of torture, which is definitely not the effect that comedy hopes to create.
For Anson, this is a special test.
