Chapter 184 The Emperor's Appearance, Finished!
Chapter 184 The Emperor's Appearance, Finished!
Lu Yongle's acting career began to rise significantly.
Although it's not to the point where I'm so busy that I don't have time to sleep and rest, it's basically not idle most of the time.He has been a hot topic recently, and it is said that the comments are somewhat mixed, but the industry has watched the MV photos he starred in, and the commercial photos of international big names, and everyone understands that this storm has little effect on him.
Therefore, even if young people come out of the crew, they still have to rush between jobs.
When I go home to sleep, I can still meet Yan Jun at night. If I go to another place, I really can only make phone calls and video calls.Fortunately, Yan Jun didn't say anything about it, and Lu Yongle always discussed with him the interesting events of the day and what souvenirs he bought, so this period of gathering less and leaving more was not too disturbing.
The role of young people in "The Emperor's Face" soon came to an end.
The last scene filmed was the scene of Kuang Dongyu's sacrifice.To put it simply, it was his master who gave him an important token and requested that it be sent to the prince.But the transporting team encountered an ambush on the way. In order to preserve the token, Kuang Dongyu gave the things TOEFL to other people, and went out by himself to attract the enemy's attention in order to divert the tiger away from the mountain.When there was no escape, he was pierced by an arrow.
This character actually died very simply, but he also died very heroically.He was highly skilled in martial arts, and fought bravely against the enemy. It was difficult for the enemy to get close, and he finally died under the rain of arrows.This process sounds quite coherent, but in order to shoot shots and effects, the front fight and the final shot had to be shot separately.In other words, Lu Yongle's actions, expressions, etc. must be coherent so as not to interrupt the audience's emotions.
This was still a night scene, and it was past midnight when the last scene was filmed.
It should be in the dead of night, but the shooting scene has a heroic atmosphere, and there are quite a lot of people.This is also normal, the martial arts are basically there, and all the actors are assassins chasing and killing Kuang Dongyu.There are those who dance with swords and knives in front, and those who hold bows and arrows in the back.Lu Yongle stood among them, his clothes were already dirty and torn, his face was covered with dirty ash, his forehead was full of sweat, and he looked in a mess.
In one hand, he held a rolled long knife, and in the other... he held the arrow stuck in his heart.
To be precise, it was the wooden shaft of an arrow extending from his chest, and the arrow was no longer visible.His hand was on the place where the arrow touched his clothes. It looked like he was grabbing the arrow, but it was actually a way to keep the arrow from falling.
This is the prop that the props team just installed for him. At the same time, a small blood bag was placed next to the arrow insertion point, which will be useful when filming later.
Although his hands were busy and his body was messed up, the young man's eyes were still astonishingly bright, and his resolute expression remained unwavering.
In addition to the camera, in addition to the people who participated in the filming work, there are also two actors who have no part in the scene.
Bai Liyan, Xing Zhehai.
They both have scenes tonight, but the filming is already over by now.Bai Liyan stayed to help watch the scene, that is, acting director.Xing Zhehai stayed to cultivate emotions.
Tomorrow he will be filming "The Response After Knowing the News of Kuang Dongyu's Death". There are only a few descriptions in the script, but he has to show very complicated emotions.In order to perform well, he has to witness "Kuang Dongyu's sacrifice" with his own eyes today.
What Xing Zhehai did was exactly what director Liu Mei and Bai Liyan thought.This "master and servant" has cultivated emotions for so long, and it's finally time to use them.
"Okay, everything is ready!" Liu Mei held the microphone, "Play the board!"
The field manager walked to the camera with a slate, held it up, and typed it down with a "snap": "Action!"
The people under the camera moved, including Lu Yongle.
"Uh...!" The young man suddenly took a step back, his body swayed, and red liquid slowly flowed between the fingers holding the arrow and the skirt of his clothes.
The next moment, he seemed to be unable to resist the backward inertia, and his whole body lost strength, and he fell straight down.
The eyes are wide open, looking into the distance, as if it is a moment of ecstasy, and it seems that it is the moment when the soul flies away.
There was no time to react, and he leaned back almost straight up.
Bang! ! !
"Cut!"
Director Liu Mei yelled to stop, and then began to check all the shots just shot.In order to make the picture coherent, three cameras were used to shoot at the same time in the few seconds just now, and the director needs to make sure that the performances under the three shots are clear and in place.
Lu Yongle sat up, still holding the arrow in his hand, not daring to jump around.
Even though the ground behind him had already been covered with protective pads, the action of him smashing straight back just now was still frightening to watch, and one couldn't help but worry about the back of his head.Wu Zhi, who was standing closest, asked "Are you okay?" The young man shook his head, waiting for the director's next arrangement.
If you fall hard, you don’t need to remove the mat behind you, just stand up and do it again.
Both Director Liu Mei and Bai Liyan stared at the monitor, checked each shot, every second, and discussed with each other.After a while, the director finally picked up the microphone again: "It's over."
It is very gratifying to have a key shot.But Lu Yongle didn't have time, and he didn't dare to get out of his emotions to celebrate, he just got up quickly, asked the props to remove the mat, and then lay directly on the ground.
Director Liu Mei asked the lighting team to adjust a little bit, and seeing that the lighting in the camera was perfect, he ordered: "Start shooting."
The field manager came to play the board again.
Snapped!
In this shot, there is only Kuang Dongyu in the picture.From almost full body, slowly pushed to only bust.Unlike other single-person shots, this shot hardly needs to make any expressions. Lu Yongle only needs to keep his eyes open and show weaker and weaker breathing.
But that's just the passing line.When discussing the performance before, the director posed a problem to Lu Yongle.
If possible, I hope he can silently say the word "Master" at the end and cry at the same time.
This is not a hard requirement, it's just a flash of inspiration from the director, so no eye drops were arranged.At the beginning, Liu Mei was not sure whether Lu Yongle would do this as requested, but when the camera zoomed in, Liu Mei suddenly realized that Lu Yongle should be able to do it.
It can be seen very clearly on the small screen, the eyes of the young man are already red.
Under the perfect lighting, there seemed to be stars twinkling in the tear-filled eyes.
After the camera guessed, the young man's lips trembled slightly: "...Master... Son..."
His eyelids gradually drooped and closed, and tears rolled down from his eyes and across the side of his face.
"Beautiful...!" Liu Mei couldn't help saying something in a low voice, and waited for the camera to stand still for about ten seconds before shouting through the microphone, "Cut!"
"Ha..." The young man who had been holding his breath finally took a deep breath and opened his eyes at the same time.He was thinking that he had to brew it in advance, otherwise if he did it again later, there would be no tears.Unexpectedly, before he waited for a few seconds to brew again, he heard Director Liu Mei's voice coming from the stereo: "It's over!"
Lu Yongle: "!!!"
The young man sat up and looked at the director: "Really?!"
"Really. There's a small problem, but it's not your problem. It's the best if you don't hide your flaws." Liu Mei said directly into the microphone, "But your last two words will be re-recorded later, and the audience should listen to them." Just be clear."
"Okay, I know!" Lu Yongle got up, and bowed to the surrounding Wuzhi and staff to say thank you.As soon as he turned around and got up together, the young man saw Bai Liyan walking towards him holding a handful of flowers.
"Congratulations!" Bai Liyan handed the flowers to the young man, and hugged through the flowers, "Thank you for your hard work. The last two shots are very good. You are making rapid progress, and the future will be bright."
"It's Director Liu, Brother Yan and many people in the crew who helped me, so that I can learn so much..."
Holding the bouquet of flowers, Lu Yongle talked about his feelings about the completion, mainly thanks again.After honing in the crew for more than a month, in fact, he still has a lot of emotions, but he just cried after the emotions were brewed, and he was happy after both scenes, so he won't cry now.
Even though it was late at night, when Lu Yongle finished speaking, the people present applauded collectively.After Bai Liyan clapped his hands, he took out a red envelope and handed it to the young man: "Here, here is your Laishe."
The young man touched the thickness of the red envelope, and asked in a low voice with a smile, "Is it enough for me to buy milk tea?"
Bai Liyan laughed and said, "It's not enough for you and me to pay the bill, so it's okay, right?"
"Okay." The young man paused, then said loudly, "I'll invite everyone to drink milk tea tomorrow!"
The crew members who started to call it a day responded with a smile.
Bai Liyan raised his eyebrows: "Don't you think that I will reimburse you for the milk tea for the entire crew?"
"Haha, no wow." The young man said cheerfully, "Brother Yan invites me, and I invite you too."
"I suddenly realized that you called me 'Brother Yan' as soon as you finished filming? Isn't it too fast?" Bai Liyan smiled. When you leave the group, you forget who you are, you know?"
At first glance, these words are meant to remind Lu Yongle not to forget himself, but in fact, it is to remind the young people to continue to get along well with the people they know in the crew, and there are many friends and multiple paths.
"Okay, I know." Lu Yongle nodded, exchanged a few casual words with Bai Liyan, and then walked out of the shooting location.
He chatted with director Liu Mei, the assistant director, the team leader of Wu Zhi, and others, and finally he basically finished the round of greetings.In fact, the production team still has a special episode of the filming experience to be filmed, but it is scheduled for tomorrow morning, and now it is time to call it a day and go back to rest.
Lu Yongle was about to leave with the flowers in his arms, when he turned his head, he saw Xing Zhehai standing not far away, looking at him in a daze.
The young man followed the other party's gaze and walked over, blinking a little doubtfully: "Teacher Xing...?"
It was the first time for Lu Yongle to call Xing Zhehai "teacher" like others, causing Xing Zhehai to react for a second before he realized that the other party was calling himself: "...Why do you call me this?"
"Because..." Lu Yongle was about to say that because it had already been finished, but he suddenly thought that Xing Zhehai seemed to be filming a scene recalling Kuang Dongyu tomorrow, so he immediately changed his words, "Okay, I was wrong, please forgive me, master."
In fact, Xing Zhehai thought of the reason after asking the question. He didn't expect the young man to change his words just for himself, so he couldn't help but smile: "It's okay, you can call yourself whatever you want. I was just thinking about something, let's go, go back and rest."
The actors all live in the same hotel, so they can really go back together now that work is over.However, Lu Yongle was a little afraid of affecting Xing Zhehai's state, and asked, "Really? Let's go back together, is it okay?"
Xing Zhehai raked his hair and smiled helplessly.
"Of course it's okay. If you don't go together, I'm afraid I'm going to lose sleep tonight after watching that scene."
