Angus and may bell have some contradictory emotions, and they don't know whether they should be happy or worried: it turns out that they have not been forgotten by Langley, and Langley doesn't play big names with arrogance; However, after the small storm just now, both of them were in a tight mood, as if they were challenging the high-altitude steel wire. The idea of turning around and running away was still surging in their minds, and they had irresistible temptation.

Fortunately, Lan Li's words soon made them fall into thinking. For the time being, they had no time to think about the survival probability of running away - or to bring them into the ditch collectively?

"Garris, we can notice the change of light on the set, which is obviously a very important part of the whole play; But what else? Is the shot close range, medium range, long range or panoramic? What about the high and low positions? What's the depth of field of the dialogue character's position in the lens, and the position of other actors in the lens? Most importantly, what are the camera emotions you want to convey? nervous? Confrontation? Or what? "

People are confused. Aren't these professional directors? What does it have to do with them actors?

But Garris showed a thoughtful look, deep and focused eyes show the activity of the brain.

"During the performance, every actor left a spotlight on his face, which means that the expression details can be clearly captured by the camera; But the picture composition and lens track are showing the role relationship and the overall atmosphere, which means that the actor's performance can not be too trivial or too delicate, otherwise it will be lost. Now, each of us has a different understanding of the lens. The most important thing is that we can't understand the director's pursuit, and the final performance state can't be accurately captured by the lens. "

Angus and may bell are still full of confusion. They can understand every word of Langley, but when combined, they are just like the book of heaven.

Felicity's thoughts gradually came to her senses. Her bright eyes were full of expectation and excitement. All the clues were connected, and the chaotic and noisy brain became clear again. Everything made sense. The obstacles and difficulties disappeared in a flash.

Garris is still in a state of absolute concentration. "You mean that the light tries to capture the state of each character, while the picture tries to capture the atmosphere of the whole scene. There is a conflict between the two. In the process of performance, the actor is not sure how to control his propriety, which destroys the overall fluency and integrity. On the whole, the details are correct and the connection is correct, but the panoramic blueprint is wrong? "

"No, no, No." Lan Li shook his head again and again, "you should be clear, what you want is the part, or the whole, and then let us go on the right track."

"Judging from the requirements you just made for me, you are more inclined to the overall effect, so you hope my performance can be more convergent, but you don't want to miss the depth and level of the character in the camera. That's why I convinced you. No, this is not what we want. You should leave the performance space to us, but the premise is that you need to draw out the scope of the performance space and give a direction and goal. That's right. "

Lanli's further explanation didn't make Garris suddenly aware. Instead, he entered another corner, frowning and saying, "performance space? I don't know anything about performance. I only know that your performance is in my lens. Is it appropriate or not? "

"Yes, that's what we need!" Langley interrupts Garris, and then he can see that Garris looks up in bewilderment, and he has to explain, "your lens! That's what we need! "

"Remember? It's a science fiction movie, and computer effects are bound to take up a lot of space. What does that mean? This means that we actors have no way to know the final effect of the lens and picture. Even if we go to the back of the monitor and watch the live playback, we may not be able to imagine the whole blueprint. Only you know, you know how grand the scene is, you know how gorgeous the picture is. It's all in your mind. "

"On the set, you control the whole scene through your own scheduling of the lens track and the arrangement of the depth of field. Now, you have to tell us, for example, that this is a panoramic view, focusing on felicity, the distance between the actor and the lens, and the emotional strength you need the actor to show. The rest is up to us."

In short, actors need the director to pass the ruler to them so that they can adjust their performance.

Langley's explanation finally awakened Garris, "Aha! Is that why? Is that why the performances are so rigid and inappropriate? "

Is this "grand theft one" or "Godzilla"?

The actors were confused: do you want to be sad? Do you want to refute? Can Garris talk or not!

"Of course, there are important differences in the actors themselves." Lanli shrugged his shoulders and made a joke. The subtext seemed to say: if it was me, it would be different. Inadvertently, he pushed Garris's words to "Godzilla", pretending that there was no problem with the performance of "grand theft one".

The relaxed and cheerful tone of voice stunned everyone, and then burst into laughter, especially Angus and may bell, who were in the clouds, laughing with exaggeration - even exaggeration.

Garris chuckled. "Sure, that's for sure." Then he got to the point, "midrange, what I need is midrange. The light will be locked on the bodies of Langley and felicity, so I guess, Angus, your performance should be restrained; And may should be put out, because you are at the far end of the middle shot, and the lens can't catch your emotions. Also, by the way, the light for you is not spotlight, but astigmatism. Your performance needs a focus, otherwise the lens effect will be very... Scattered? "

Garris himself is not sure.

"As for lenley and felicity, I'm sure you'll deal with it. The last match was good, but the strength needed to be weakened." Garris is not good at directing performance, so he didn't go on.

After the explanation, Garris hesitated and awkwardly patted Langley on the shoulder - but the action was very rigid. "Thank you for your advice." Then he quickly turned around and left. The figure of running away makes people laugh.

The atmosphere was a little stuffy.

Angus and may bell are still digesting. What happened in just five minutes is so ups and downs that they still can't react.

Felicity pondered over the conversation carefully - understanding the performance from the overall perspective of the director, which was still a bit complicated for her, and she didn't understand what it meant for a while; But she can understand the different requirements of the depth of field on the performance details. The performance methods of close-up and long-range are definitely different. Langley specially asked Garris to complete the picture composition. Does this mean that the actors need to cooperate with the director more in the performance of commercial films?

This is an idea to break the fixed idea!

The most common types of Hollywood commercial films are lone heroes, from Harrison Ford and Tom Cruise, to Bruce Willis and Arnold Schwarzenegger, to Will Smith and Johnny Depp, and even to the star studded Robert Downey Jr. the personal charm of these heroes is the biggest reason for the success of the film, and naturally, they have a strong personality, The core highlights of the whole film are often concentrated on these absolute protagonists, and even make the whole story give way to their personality charm, so as to destroy the structural balance of the film.

As for the director?

"The iron Cruz, the flowing director", the director's ability and charm must serve the actors, their role is easy to be ignored.

Now Langley has broken this rule - obviously not because the protagonist is felicity, who tries to steal felicity's lightning in a despicable way, but to make movies and characters more possible.

More importantly, this is the way for felicity to perform: find her own rhythm in the trend of the performance direction of the big frame, interpret the role of Jean Urso in her way, and show the growth of the role with delicate and rich emotions - just like Cassian played by Langley.

"Langley, can we go over the lines?" Felicity looked up at lanli, "I mean, outside the camera, I want to guess Qin's mood..."

"Exactly, I also need to adjust the degree of relaxation." Before felicity could finish, Langley agreed.

For lenley, he also needs to adjust.

Garris once again stressed that he still wanted Langley to be a little bit more restrained, perhaps because he was so confused that he forgot the conversation before the argument; Maybe it's because he always thinks that lanli's performance creates an overall imbalance.

In fact, in order to guide felicity to enter the performance state, lanli is a little bit too strong, the whole mood is a little too tight, and the details are too cumbersome, which can be adjusted to a certain extent.

For felicity, she has to rearrange her thinking

Jean Urso's feelings about her father and her reaction to the questions from the rebels; How can she digest and understand the subsequent request for help? What's Jean Urso's emotion about the resistance itself, and what's her emotion when the resistance "kidnaps" her? Further, in the face of Cassian's aggressive posture, what is her character and resistance? dissatisfaction? swallow insult and humiliation silently? And on this basis, how should follow-up growth? What is the performance curve?

It's true that performance needs to be concise, direct, introverted and efficient; But if the context of the whole performance can not be determined, then the character is still a paper man after all.
