On the morning of that day, Bi Xia and Zhu Jianye and others gathered in the classroom of the Performance Department of the Film Academy. The performance department courses are more open compared to other courses. In addition to teaching in ordinary classrooms, they also have a very spacious staircase classroom for performance courses. This is a term called liberating nature in the performance major.

Bi Xia and others borrowed this staircase classroom today, which was of course a contribution from teachers Xiao Yang and Wang Li. Today is the first time this small crew gathered, mainly because everyone gets familiar with each other and will be officially filmed in the afternoon.

"Boy, who is your 'first love'? You haven't told me about it for so many days. Are you reluctant to let it go?" Huang Xuyi hooked Bi Xia's neck with his arm and said viciously.

"I said you don't know each other, so you'll see you later?" Bi Xia replied with a wry smile. The next day Bi Xia met Liu Yufei, she received a call from her and promised to play the role of the school beauty. This made Bi Xia feel relieved. If she didn't act, it would be useless to lose her temperament and beautiful appearance.

After Liu Yufei agreed to Bi Xia, he told the two that they didn't need to look for actors, and that the roles of school beauties and Hao Lei were already in place. Therefore, he would be questioned by Huang Xuyi every day, but Liu Yufei would only come here today, and he had no choice.

"Haha, everyone, I am Hao Lei!" An old lady said with laughter, and with the refreshing and neatness, Hao Lei's fat figure appeared at the door.

"It's really Hao Lei!" Huang Xuyi exaggeratedly and circled around Hao Lei twice. He admired Bi Xia a little. This girl was so close to the characters in the script that he didn't know where he found it. Although he had heard Bi Xia's introduction, he couldn't help but sigh when he saw it with his own eyes.

"It's like a fake one!" Hao Lei stretched out her chubby arm and patted her chest.

There were more than a dozen people in the classroom. Except for the two protagonists, Huang Xu also confessed to Feng Yong as photography. He had some talent in this area. Zhu Jianye had a filming experience. He served as the deputy director to assist Bi Xia in controlling the crew. The others were all alumni who participated in the performance this time, including a lighting teacher, a senior who had graduated. This time, he came to help.

Hao Lei turned around and glanced around, then focused her eyes on Wang Li. She walked to Wang Li, her fat body was in a sharp contrast with Wang Li's thin body. "Damn, how old are you, and you still participate in the 'Happy Boy'. Are you still dancing?" Hao Lei said with one hand in his waist and pointed at Wang Li with the other hand, looking like a middle-aged woman scolding her man.

Xiao Yang and Wang Li looked at each other and saw that the other person's eyes were full of surprise. This girl played Hao Lei really matched.

"Haha..." Hao Lei smiled embarrassedly without waiting for the other party to speak and said, "Two teachers, sorry, just now..." Bi Xia had roughly introduced the situation of the crew to Hao Lei on the phone. Compared to Bi Xia's relationship between them, they were either teachers, students or alumni, she was undoubtedly an outsider. She came up with such a move and made everyone accept her successfully.

"Two brothers, I will introduce you to Hao Lei, the actor who plays "Hao Lei" in the film." Bi Xia took a step forward and pointed at Hao Lei and introduced.

"She is really called Hao Lei?!"

"It's a coincidence!"

The two were amazed. Such things were rare. They were not just the same name, but they were all the same in shape, just like the prototype of the character in the play.

"Haha, I was shocked when I first heard Bi Xia talk about it." Zhu Jianye also said with a smile. After all, they were together every day, discussing the details of the film again and again, so he heard Bi Xia's introduction and was also surprised at that time.

"Hello, is this the crew of "Old Boy"?" This was a crisp and cold voice.

Everyone who gathered together subconsciously turned their heads to look at the door. Zhizhi saw a girl standing at the door, wearing a white dress, a pair of pure and bright eyes without impurities, a pretty little nose, as tender as cream as snowy skin, as pure as dreams and as dreams.

"You are finally here, waiting for you!" Bi Xia saw Liu Yufei coming, and the last bit of worry disappeared without a trace, and walked towards her with a smile.

"I promised you, the great director." Liu Yufei has a cold personality and is born noble, but she is definitely not the kind of girl who wears princess dresses all day long. Through these few days of communication, Bi Xia knew that she looked very much like the "Little Dragon Girl" written by Mr. Jin. She looked cold on the outside and had an unknown passion on the inside.

She is also an ordinary girl, she can make noises and makes noises, and likes canvas shoes and torn jeans, but it is precisely because of this that Bi Xia feels the more real.

Liu Yufei's appearance made everyone look at each other frequently, and it was really beautiful. By the way, everyone belonged to the film school. Compared with other universities, it can be said to be a concentration camp for beauty, and everyone is somewhat immune to beauties.

But Liu Yufei is different. She may not be more beautiful than the female classmates in the Film Academy, but her calmness, coldness, and nobleness make her temperament particularly prominent and particularly attractive.

"You are not very noisy, why is it so quiet!" Zhu Jianye pushed Huang Xuyi, who was standing next to him silently.

"Oh, I finally know the meaning of Bi Xia's 'first love'!" Huang Xu was also rarely deep. This sentence also caused everyone to nod. Liu Yufei didn't use any makeup. She stood there and unconsciously attracted everyone's attention. It was so clear and beautiful that everyone couldn't help but feel that "our first love should be like this."

...

The biggest difference between the new generation of directors and the older generation of directors in their work is the difference between "talking about the play" and "talking about the play". Before filming, the old-school director gathers all the relevant actors in front of them, tells them the entire script separately, telling the actors about their understanding, requirements and goals that need to be achieved, and inspiring the actors to perform and grasp when performing.

During this process, the actors do not participate in the creation of the plot, nor do they need to consider whether there are certain problems with the script. The only thing they need is to accurately and vividly implement the director's intentions.

However, in the new century, this has undergone fundamental changes. Before filming, the new generation of directors will convene actors and relevant creators to talk about the show. This is a relatively professional term in the director's textbook called "storing the show".

The so-called "storing plays" is actually a group of people sitting together to preview the scenes of more than an hour of movies. After all, the plot is played by actors. Many times, the emotional logic and dialogue grasp of each character in the script will affect other people's performances, so the pre-shooting is very important.

Of course, "storing plays" does not mean abandoning the talk of plays. "storing plays" just sets the tone of the whole movie. Its fundamental purpose is to allow actors to participate in the creation, rather than keep acting blindly.

Every director has his own understanding of a script and what he wants to express, so talking about the drama is an indispensable thing during filming. Actors, especially some powerful actors, often have their own unique understanding of some characters. They may have a flash of inspiration in some clips, giving the character a new image, which may also be the most outstanding part of the entire film.

"Storing the play" only increases communication between actors and relevant personnel and directors, allowing everyone to participate in script creation, making the movie more logical and meticulous. This is an advancement in the history of film.

After everyone sat down, Bi Xia and the other two began to distribute the prepared manuscripts. This was also the official script used by the crew in the future. Seeing that everyone had opened the script, Bi Xia took out the director's shelf and coughed dryly: "Let's start, let's do it first." At this moment, although Bi Xia still had a gentle smile on her face, her expression became more solemn and confident.

Zhu Jianye immediately understood it and began to read the narration to the script:

"Scene 1, Xiao Dabao and Wang Xiaoshuai participated in the 'Happy Boy' rematch."

The scene suddenly became silent. Xiao Yang and the others should have followed the lines, but they all did not say anything. After a while, Xiao Yang looked up at Bi Xia and sighed: "I'm sorry, Bi Xia. But you really gave us a big surprise."

When everyone heard this, they looked at the script manuscript in their hands. Because the others didn't have many scenes, they had received the script before and knew the dialogue. Now that they saw Xiao Yang say this, they were curious about the mystery in the script. This is amazing...

This script is a script that is between a storyboard script and a stage play script.

The so-called storyboard script is commonly known as the director script. Each storyboard script has requirements, lighting, shooting, character psychological analysis, expected effects, etc. It can be said that a complete storyboard script is in hand, even a rookie can shoot the movie, and it will not be too bad.

The stage play script marks the time on each dialogue. The number of seconds to finish a sentence and the number of seconds to follow the conversation is accurately marked. This is because the live performances of the stage play are fixed, and everyone's lines in the live performance are specified. Otherwise, if an actor lengthens the lines or has too many improvised performances in order to show himself, he has to compress other people's scenes, which will directly lead to the plot chaos, so there are such strict regulations.

Few people in film and television dramas make the script so precise. Not to mention the stage play scripts, even the storyboard scripts are generally only character analysis, director's expectations and requirements. The reason is that to make such a precise script, the director himself must have super high performance logic, and it takes a lot of energy to try repeatedly to finalize the script. Generally, directors do not have this level or time, and usually let the actors perform themselves, and then leave it to the editor for control later.

Bi Xia is different. He has a complete video in his mind. Even if there are some changes, he simulates his brain that is far more developed than ordinary people. Moreover, film is very expensive, so it is better to save money if you can save.

Film shooting has been improving. In the 1970s and 1980s, the film and television industry in Xiangjiang and Baodao began to flourish before the mainland. At that time, there was no script for filming. Many times, the director had an idea, and then asked someone to write a rough script and set up a stage to shoot. Bi Xia remembered that there was a director like this. He had no script for filming, and he would ask the actors to keep acting until he felt that it was the feeling he needed. Many times he himself didn't know what he needed, and the actors could only imagine blindly. Therefore, his movies always had a strong personal style, extreme stylized visual images, and postmodern expressions.

It is also because of this that the directors and actors in that era were very strong, and there were too many places they needed to play their own way, and the movies in that era were full of imagination.

Bi Xia's script does not limit the time of the actor's lines according to the stage play. His script restores the scene in detail, and is extremely accurate in character dialogue and psychological analysis, but does not have many rigid regulations on actor's performance because he does not want to restrict the actor's nature.

Sometimes improvisation will have unexpected effects. A film cannot be done by a good director or a good actor. It is like a precision instrument that requires precise cooperation of every part to achieve excellent results.

Liu Yufei took on a rough movie for the first time. She sat quietly and listened to everyone's feelings and amazement at Bi Xia's script, and her heart was slightly turbulent, and the excitement of the movie world was revealed.
