Chapter 178 Short Audition
Ten lines in one glance——
Not to recite lines, but to master the scene.
Of course, if Anson could have a photographic memory, scan it and perform without script, and present the lines word for word, he would be very amazing.
But think about it seriously, is such "stunning" enough to win a role?
The answer is no.
The ability to recite lines is not directly related to the role or performance. At most, it can only leave a deep impression. However, Anson believes that the impression he has left so far is deep enough, so he should focus on Seriously, show what you need to show for the audition.
Instead of reciting the lines, it is better to understand the lines carefully and further demonstrate your interpretation of the character based on the impression of the character you have previously constructed.
Anson is ready to make full use of his advantages. In his previous life, he watched the movie "Spider-Man". Although he can't remember the lines and the plot is a bit vague, he can restore the scene and grasp the essence through the lines in front of him. Your own understanding makes the performance come alive.
So, taking advantage of the short time to pack his backpack, Anson quickly scanned the lines.
It was a little surprising that this was the scene.
A thirty-second monologue in which Peter Parker looks at his crush, Mary-Jane.
In the original comics, Peter Parker’s first love was Gwen Stacy. This pure love had a sad ending. During a confrontation between the villains, Peter failed to save Gwen and watched helplessly. He watched Gwen die tragically in front of his eyes.
This scene is an innovative scene for comics, because the superhero failed to turn the tide, and it was his first love. When the comics came out, it caused a frenzy of controversy, but many years later, But it proved to be a milestone in changing superhero comics.
Obviously, Sam didn't like this plot, so in this version, Peter's first love was his next-door neighbor Mary Jane, and Gwen didn't appear until the second version of "The Amazing Spider-Man", and in The scene of Gwen's death was reenacted in the second film in the series.
Between Peter and Mary Jane, Peter has been secretly in love with his neighbor, but the beautiful Mary Jane has a boyfriend, and the shy Peter has been carefully hiding his feelings.
The scene Ian and the others chose for the audition was very particular:
Coming from Peter's monologue, the confession of silently watching Mary Jane's back.
If it were just that, it would be just the admiration of an ordinary high school student for his crush; but the real hidden message in this scene is that Peter has gained superpowers.
In the movie, after Peter was bitten by a spider, he fell into a deep sleep when he returned home. After waking up, Peter found that his hearing and eyesight had become sharper. Not only did he take off his glasses, but he also found that his figure had improved, although he did not notice it for the time being. He has super powers and doesn't realize what's going on, but Peter's mentality and state have undergone subtle changes.
Otherwise, why would Peter, who had been secretly hiding his thoughts, suddenly muster up the courage to try to get close to Mary Jane and secretly tell his thoughts?
In other words, the point is that Peter changed from being shy to a little more confident, but he didn't realize it clearly for the time being, and then he cautiously took small steps to try to comfort Mary-Jane, who was quarreling with her family, but was timid. The subtle mood of stopping.
Confession is more than just a confession.
But the key is that Ian and the others did not remind them of any background information.
So, what is the reason for no reminder?
Perhaps, they just hope to see the actors' understanding and expression of the confessional mentality, so that to some extent they can see the actor's interpretation of Peter Parker.
Hidden secrets.
Anson, his mind is working quickly.
At this time, Peter should still be shy. His emotional and subconscious impulses are still restrained by reason, but he can hardly control the intensity and heat of his emotions.
So, how should Anson show it?
Confession.
In his previous life, Anson never confessed. There was no need to confess before the age of twenty-five, and after the age of twenty-five, he did not dare to drag others down. Especially later.
Standing in front of the person he likes, but because of his bad situation, he is worried about becoming a burden to the other person. Even he himself has no future, so what right does he have to hope for the future of a relationship, so that he can't speak all the words? Swallowing, he carefully sorted out his emotions and perfectly hid them.
He hesitated to speak, but could not hide——
Secret love is such a feeling.
It only took a moment to pack the luggage. Ansen did not procrastinate for time. After a quick scan, he quickly packed it up, but this little time was enough and he had some ideas.
Taking a deep breath, Anson picked up the line sheet and did not force himself to recite it. Instead, he browsed through it repeatedly to make himself familiar with the words as much as possible.
Turning around to distance himself, Anson did not stop in the middle and continued to retreat, completely widening the distance, almost to the end of the room.
The slightly fat woman chuckled, "Stop, stop, where are you going? We can't even see you."
Anson turned around, raised his hand, and was still in the mood to joke, "Don't worry, I will do my best to ensure that you can see me clearly."
Haha.
Ian and the others couldn't help but chuckle, and the atmosphere relaxed before it became tense.
Huh.
Anson adjusted his breathing slightly, not only to calm himself down, but also to leave a short blank space before the performance began.
One second. Two seconds.
Then, raise your head and take steps.
Anson moved forward slowly, moving forward with full of heart. He had just started to move forward but immediately stopped. An emergency brake was applied to control himself. His steps were slightly slow. He glanced forward, but He couldn't help but lower his head and move forward hesitantly.
However, with his chin lowered, his eyes quietly raised, watching quietly.
There was no sound in the room. Even the agent sitting in the corner couldn't help but look over. Now they finally understood what Anson meant——
Anson's footsteps have returned to the front, which is about three steps away from the long table. The emotions in his expression and eyes can be clearly seen.
Moreover, the most special thing is that Anson slowly approached from far to near. When he came out of the shadow, he first felt a subtle atmosphere and drew an outline in his mind, like smoke and fog. The hazy impression; then slowly it became clear, the smoke dissipated, and finally I could see those eyes clearly.
The whole look and feel, bit by bit, penetrates and invades, quietly grabbing the line of sight, making people want to explore, explore the true emotions in those eyes and the emotional struggle on that face, and confirm My own guess, watching the person in front of me, describing the scene he was in bit by bit in my mind.
There are no lines throughout the whole process, but it firmly captures the attention.
This composure is already eye-catching. All eyes in the room fell on Anson, and it seemed that he could feel the focus of the camera changing.
Performance is not just a performance, but also uses the performance to construct the lights, lenses, and space, so that the sense of the picture comes to your face.
Fourth update.
