Chapter 31 Difficult Shooting
I have to say that the finale of "The Ghost Story" was quite a challenge for both Qin Hao and Hu Jing.
Until 12 o'clock in the morning, the two of them did not feel sleepy at all and were still listening to Jiang Peian's instructions conscientiously.
Uncle Guan knew that the three of them were going to do a night show today, so he simply didn't leave and stayed in the villa to help the three of them light the lights.
While Jiang Pei'an was telling the story to the two of them, he even made a pot of chicken soup.
It’s still a bit cold in early spring in Beijing, and it’s especially chilly at night.
A bowl of hot chicken soup really warms the body.
"One of the three endings has been completed, although Qin Hao's performance can be integrated into the other two endings through post-editing.
But since it is shot in the form of a pseudo-documentary, it must give the audience a real feeling.
NG and continued scenes will destroy this sense of reality, so Qin Hao will have to help Hu Jing in the scene later, which is hard work."
After Hu Jing's performance ended again, Jiang Peian shouted with satisfaction.
Hu Jing was the thinnest among the three. She only wore a pair of pajamas during the performance. At this time, her whole body was wrapped in a quilt and she was shivering from the cold.
"Director, Hu Jing's condition..."
But after looking at Jiang Peian in a "violent" state, he immediately stopped this stupid behavior.
"It's okay, we're in the middle of the drama, let her sort out her emotions by herself, she'll be fine later."
Most of the film and television dramas of later generations are getting further and further down the road of being worse...
Therefore, Hu Jing wants to present three different performance states and forms for the ending.
After taking a break, the three of them started working again.
In the play, she is so deeply involved in the drama that every move she makes in her life reveals the shadow of Lin Daiyu.
This is quite a challenge for her.
"Finally passed!"
It also makes it easier for the audience to be infected and understood by the characters.
"I know the director."
Of course, there are also crews who are too lazy to use plasma props and try to get away with post-production packaging.
Even Qin Hao on the side couldn't stand it anymore and wanted Jiang Pei'an to stop many times.
"Ka, come back!"
"Everyone has worked hard tonight. Go to bed early. We will start filming again at 2:30 tomorrow afternoon."
"Okay! Click!"
You want to scare the audience, not make them laugh!"
The difference is that the heroine behaves differently when she opens the door and comes in.
Jiang Peian glanced at her, put the quilt on her body, then took the DV and started watching the playback.
Hu Jing nodded solemnly.
I complained a little yesterday, but today the recommended tickets and monthly tickets have not stopped, and there are many messages of encouragement. Thank you brothers.
The last ending was filmed in two hours.
"Remember your state during tonight's performance, and you can use it when you play other roles in the future."
In this state, actors can express the characters' emotions and behaviors more realistically.
Qin Hao nodded while holding the chicken soup and said:
The three of them started shooting at seven o'clock until now...
"Hu Jing, pay attention to your expression. Your eyes should be empty and numb. It's not a grimace, it's a real state of madness.
When an actor enters the scene, it sounds very mysterious.
Sure enough, Jiang Peian's guess was correct, and Hu Jing walked out not long after.
Then she walked out of the room, screaming in the dark, and the hero hurried downstairs to check...
But at the same time, it also yields the most!
"Director, actually the three endings all have a common feature. The heroine is possessed, right?"
"I know the director, come again!"
After asking the two of them to have a good rest, Jiang Peian left the room...
Jiang Peian nodded and said:
"The endings of the other two versions are easy to predict. You should pay attention to the two scenes of slitting your throat and committing suicide in front of the camera and making faces in front of the camera, which will test your performance very much."
He looked down at the time, it was already four o'clock in the morning.
This has a lot to do with Hu Jing's performance status. Jiang Peian has tried his best to tell the story.
"Not bad, this performance finally showed that lifeless feeling, it's over!"
Jiang Peian warned.
The production method is also very simple. Put an appropriate amount of edible red coloring in a container and add warm water and mix well.
Moreover, the whole person has been in a depressed mental state for a long time, and even the news of becoming a monk was exposed.
Fortunately, she was not a spoiled person. Although she was shivering from the cold, she gritted her teeth and persisted.
In this way, you can forget about your self-awareness and external interference, and you can better resonate with the character.
Qin Hao exhaled heavily.
Speaking of which, I feel a bit envious...
However, he soon shook his head in fear, they were filming a horror movie.
The heroine always got up from the bed and stood beside the bed staring at the sleeping hero until three o'clock in the morning.
She even demonstrated and walked through the play in person, but Hu Jing's performance was still unsatisfactory.
This type of film is not Hu Jing's specialty, but she has also shown considerable professionalism and resilience.
However, the crew usually puts the plasma in capsules or "blood bags" and lets the actors hold it in their mouths first.
But she didn't seem to hear it and remained in the same state as before Jiang Peian shouted.
In fact, when performing a role, the actor is completely immersed in the emotions, thoughts and behaviors of the character.
Qin Hao nodded in understanding. He had only heard the acting teacher mention it during class.
This is considered a relatively serious situation. For someone like Hu Jing, she is just emotionally entering the state, and it won't take long for her to exit on her own.
"Let's do it again! Hu Jing, please pay attention to your positioning. You can hardly be seen in the camera. Is there anything next door that attracts you?!"
Hu Jing nodded. She was tortured the most by Jiang Peian tonight.
Jiang Peian said calmly.
This is a more common method of making plasma in later generations. If it needs to come into contact with the actor's mouth, blood spit out from the mouth can also be used.
Although Jiang Pei'an usually seems to everyone to be smiling and easy-going.
When the right time comes, let the actor bite the blood bag and let the plasma flow out of the mouth, or spray it out directly.
For example, Chen Xiaoxu played the role of Lin Daiyu in the 1983 version of "A Dream of Red Mansions".
The ending and early part of the three versions are the same.
"I know the director."
Qin Hao looked at Hu Jing, who was still sitting in front of the table, a little worried.
Why do you have to resonate with Ah Piao? It’s too scary!
Since it was shot at night, professional props and blood were basically not needed when the lights were dim.
"I know the director."
Hu Jing was hiding under the quilt with her head exposed, and there was blood on her delicate face that had not been wiped off, making her look coquettishly beautiful.
This is Jiang Peian's own plasma, and the effect is very realistic.
It’s so scary, hold my little quilt tight...
His eyes were dull, his expression was numb, and he looked like a zombie.
Jiang Peian focused on explaining to Hu Jing the key points and difficulties of performing the two endings.
I won’t go into details here because… there are too many!
Anyway, he never had this kind of experience when he was performing.
Jiang Peian said while holding the storyboard script.
Add honey to increase the consistency, and that's basically it.
"Hu Jing, can you do it? Give back all the things that Zhongxi Drama taught you?!"
But once he enters the filming state, he starts to "care about everything" and turns into a tyrant on the set every minute!
…
To be honest, I was very happy when I saw this today. I was fully prepared for this book. I wrote the outline and chapters.
Therefore, my writing has been relatively smooth since I started the book. Occasionally, I can solve the problems in a timely manner. The results may not be satisfactory, but fortunately I have you!
