Chapter 493 Filming in Progress

"Okay, all departments are ready!"

"The lighting artist will brighten the light a little brighter!"

"Three, two, one!"

"Power on!"

Under the command of the assistant director, the photographer moved the camera and started shooting.

In the camera, Wu Yuan, wearing a simple shirt and jeans, slowly entered the scene holding an antique cabinet.

"Mom, look what I found." Wu Yuan shouted to the spiral staircase with a slightly excited tone.

The noble-looking teacher Siqingaowa slowly walked down the spiral staircase.

"Hey, where did this big desk and cabinet come from?"

"I found it at the flea market." Wu Yuan laughed and said proudly: "This table and cabinet looks like an object from the old Republic of China. It must be eighty or ninety years old."

"The person who sold this cabinet didn't know the goods. He said it was an old item at home and he didn't want it anymore after moving. I spent 200 yuan to get it back."

The assistant director standing outside the screen held a walkie-talkie and quickly shouted: "Okay, click!"

The sound of hitting the board rang out.

Wu Yuan put away the smile on his face and walked quickly towards the monitor.

"Brother, your acting is pretty good. Your acting skills are promising." Liu Yifei, who had been sitting by the monitor watching the shooting, said with some jealousy: "I don't see you practicing your acting skills in normal times. Are you going behind my back?" Practice secretly?"

Compared with when he was filming "Goblin", Wu Yuan's acting skills were more simple and unpretentious.

This is not a criticism, but a compliment.

In this scene, Wu Yuan didn't have any outstanding performance, but he just had this ordinary and ordinary appearance, which fit the scene in the script very well. It didn't look like he was acting, but just like he was chatting at home.

Wu Yuan ignored Liu Yifei and calmly played back the footage before nodding with satisfaction and saying: "Yes, it can be used."

"It's not that my acting skills are great, it's just that compared to idol dramas like "Goblin", realistic feature films like "Love Letter" are more in line with my own life."

"You don't need to act, just be yourself."

If Wu Yuan is asked to act in a fairy-tale drama, where he hangs wires and flies around in the sky, performs hand seals, and performs various cool moves, then he may not be able to perform well.

But playing an ordinary urban youth in his twenties is quite easy.

Because he had already lived such a life in his dream.

The real scene is reproduced.

In fact, many so-called "good acting" actors are just acting in their true colors.

They specialize in taking roles that fit their own personalities and realistic temperaments. When acting, they only need to show their true side, so that the audience can shout "Well done" and "Excellent acting skills!" and let those who know the inside story People can't laugh or cry.

Of course, this kind of actor usually has a very narrow acting career and can only play one type of role. But if he tries other roles that have a big contrast with his own personality, his true colors will be revealed immediately and he will be criticized by the audience.

Wu Yuan's acting skills are naturally not very superb. He can understand the actors' acting skills and can even guide and provide the actors with various performance effects he wants.

But this is just because he is the director, and the actors will work hard to find a way to present whatever performance effect he wants.

And if he really had to act it himself, 80% of the time he wouldn't be able to perform it. Actors also need practice to make perfect.

So when writing the script of "Love Letter" this time, Wu Yuan consciously wrote the male protagonist in the direction of his true character, so that he didn't need to put too much thought into the performance.

It's like customizing a script for yourself.

So even though today is the first official day of filming, his work as an actor went very smoothly.

After rubbing his chin and watching the playback on the monitor several times, Wu Yuancai said: "Qianqian, the character named Jiang Lan you played this time is not the same as Bai Xiuzhu in "The Golden Family" that you played when you debuted. The background setting is the same, they are both wealthy ladies during the Republic of China, and they also studied in the UK. "

"But compared to Bai Xiuzhu, who is full of the temper of a young lady, Jiang Lan is a gentle and sensible girl."

"You can't play this role with the same feeling you had when you played Bai Xiuzhu."

"Oops." Liu Yifei patted Wu Yuan's back with some dissatisfaction, "Brother, I have been thinking about the script for a long time, and I can still distinguish this clearly."

"Don't worry, I'm very good at this kind of role."

"The Wang Yuyan I played back then was also hailed as the best Wang Yuyan."

"I am much more mature now than I was then, and I can only perform better than I did then."

"Yes." Wu Yuan said reassuringly: "Indeed, your current acting skills have indeed improved by leaps and bounds compared to those when you first debuted."

"You performed very well in "Young You" this time. You may have a chance to become the Golden Rooster Best Actress."

Zhou Dongyu won the Golden Rooster Best Actress and the Hong Kong Island Film Awards Best Actress with "Young You".

However, compared to Zhou Dongyu, Liu Yifei is still a bit too beautiful. Even if she shaves an inch of her head in the film, it is hard to say whether she can impress the judges of the Golden Rooster and the Golden Statue.

I can only say that beautiful actors really suffer a lot in the selection of such so-called art awards.

But Wu Yuan still has great confidence in Liu Yifei, because her performance this time is really good.

Wu Yuan, who has watched at least two-thirds of the finished film material, compared it with Zhou Dongyu's version in his mind and thought that Liu Yifei's version was not inferior at all. Although there were differences in performance styles, they were both very exciting!

The little girl who was 16 or 17 years old and was scolded by the director and Chen Kun for crying because she could not act at all in her first work has now grown into an excellent young actress.

She is even better than the Liu Yifei in the original time and space!

Wu Yuan was also very proud of this.

Liu Yifei's breakthrough in acting was completely the result of his day and night cultivation and training.

In addition, he gave Liu Yifei a bigger platform, allowing her to cooperate with top Hollywood actors early when her acting skills were not yet finalized, opening up many new doors.

"Hehe, really!" Liu Yifei grinned, very happy, and was already imagining herself holding the trophy of the best actress in her mind.

Her biggest goal in this life is to become an actress with many honors and widely recognized acting skills. Gong Li has been her idol from beginning to end.

Since entering the industry in 2002, Liu Yifei has been an actress for ten years, and it is time for her to get a trophy for her acting skills.

"I never lie to you." Wu Yuan shrugged, pointed to the center of the studio, and said with a smile: "Okay, now is not the time to talk about this."

"This one is over, let's move on to the next one!" (End of this chapter)
