Remember in one second [End of the God Station] Mobile phone user input address: m.xinwanben.com
For any beginner who learns to perform, the first class is similar, let go of oneself; if necessary, the first month's basic class, the core idea is the same.
Because acting is actually a very shameful thing. They need to stand in front of strangers, immersed in their own world, with great joy and sorrow, great ups and downs.
You may play a character completely opposite to your own personality, rolling around on the streets; you may also appear in a character exactly like yourself, showing your inner emotions; you may also embarrassedly present an ancient situation from centuries ago, The content of what was said and how it was expressed was embarrassing.
Imagine standing on a stage in the West End of London, stripping away all the masks and skins, and showing the life of a madman or a poet, this is not a difficult task, because the stage creates enough environment and space for everything all become reasonable.
But what about the same performance placed in front of the camera? What about placing it in front of a group of strangers? Going a step further, what about placing it on a street where people come and go? In the real world, there is a sense of drama that is out of reality, and the embarrassment and jerky that are out of place are indeed daunting.
Even veteran actors who have been on the stage for many years still need psychological adjustment; let alone newbies who have just entered the industry.
Therefore, the first lesson of the introductory performance is that beginners need to put down their defenses, put down their restraints, put down their masks, really relax themselves, put aside shame and embarrassment, completely ignore the eyes of others, and immerse themselves in their own world. The moment they enter the performance world, they should learn to get out of reality, into performances, and into roles.
To let go of oneself may be derogatory to normal people; but to actors, it is a compliment. Therefore, people always say, in fact, actors are lunatics, but also insane. To a certain extent, this is true, because they need to let go of their ego, they need to let go of their reason.
This is the first lesson of getting started.
I have often heard before that the first acting class often requires novices to imitate various animals. The easier ones are lions and puppies, and the more difficult ones are red-crowned cranes, cicadas, and so on.
In the eyes of many, this is a hoot, not only shameful, but mentally retarded.
An adult was lying on the ground, simulating the movements and sounds of animals, like a four- or five-year-old child. There is no technical content in this, and many people will even become angry after being unable to get rid of their embarrassing emotions, thinking that such acting classes are completely deceptive.
But in fact, even at the top formal acting schools, this is a required course.
First, the first step of performance is imitation. Every performer starts from imitation and then gradually forms his own style. Second, the original intention of imitating animals is to put down their own shelves and masks, and put down their own restraint. and shame, find your own natural state.
Every actor is like that.
The point is to imitate, and more importantly, to get rid of one's own restraint and restraint through imitation, and even to get rid of one's own shame. Those actors who can't let go in the performance, those actors who are burdened with idols, can't become a real actor after all, they can only become a superficial humanoid panel.
Renly still vividly remembers that after the first week of acting class ended, the students were divided into different groups and practiced under the guidance of the teacher: they would come to a different public place and draw different Perform the title, and then the scene must be performed.
The first classmate, the title of the performance is "Rattlesnake in the quagmire/begging/happy".
It doesn't matter whether the topic conforms to realistic logic; what matters is that the performer must complete the topic. When the teacher read out the content of the topic, all the students including Renly looked at each other and began to contemplate in their own minds how they should be presented if they were to perform. There is no right answer, only the answer that suits you.
Every topic is a bomb of shame, and no one can make an exception. The first classmate is just the beginning.
At that time, the title of Renly's drawing was, "The Angry Ostrich on the Snowfield".
Just reading the title is jaw-dropping and clueless, but it's the first intro to acting.
It wasn't the most exaggerated title, after a month of acting class, they had a second field practice, and Renly's title was "In 'When Harry Met Sally', Meg Ryan's Restaurant scene", according to the teacher's expression at the time, "This is actually a relatively simple topic, but the man has drawn it, which means, Renly, you have won the jackpot."
One of the most classic scenes in "When Harry Met Sally" is that Meg Ryan sat in a restaurant and pretended to have an orgasm. Later, the old lady sitting next to her saw it and said The most classic line is, "Whatever she ordered just now, I will also have a copy."
For women, it is really not easy to perform in such an occasion; for men, it is even more difficult.
From panic to calm thinking, to vivid imitation, this is an extremely important step; if the same topic is given to Renly again, he is sure that he can still interpret his own style, inject his own understanding, and give this Instead of simply imitating Meg Ryan.
In Renly's eyes, it was undoubtedly difficult, even difficult; but again, it was the best of years.
Because everything is brand new, everything is interesting and full of curiosity
And exploration, carefully but lightly grinding stones across the river, with the conflicting mood of fear and anticipation, tirelessly and impatiently wanting to enter the world of performance. Even if your performance sucks, that's special.
This is the entry and the only way for every actor.
Later, Renly grew up gradually, the novice became a veteran, the veteran became a professional actor, and step by step, he has reached today, and he has gone further and further on the road of exploration of acting skills. The performance is more layered and deeper, and those basic skills have been quietly integrated into it, regardless of each other.
Today is special.
In the scene just tested, the content of the story is originally a stress response, showing the conditioned reflex of an ordinary person in a crisis situation. Compared with performing control, out of control is a more suitable performance method; in addition, The existence of the iris robotic arm magnifies this even more. Under the fast-moving footage, the actor's physical response to staying in place is more and more prominent.
All of this has returned to the introductory stage of performance, with the exaggerated performance of body language, showing the conditioned reflex of human beings simply and directly. For example, wrestling; another example, rolling.
For other films, this way of acting is too rough and too rough; but for "Gravity", it is the most suitable performance, which best shows Alfonso Cuaron's entire visual effects planning. 's performance.
In a trance, Renly seemed to have returned to the days when he just started learning to perform, imitating all kinds of animals, tearing away all the shame and embarrassment wrapped in his shell bit by bit, giving up face. And reserved, also give up the shelf and frame, really let go of hands and feet, into the role.
After gradually getting accustomed to the fine-tuned way of performing under control, and suddenly changing to such a simple, rude and straightforward way of getting started, Renly was a little uncomfortable. He was always thinking about control, but actually needed to get rid of it; he Always thinking about the role, in fact needing to get rid of the role.
As a result, the performance presented is comical and embarrassing. Apparently, Renly needed to readjust to a different rhythm.
Thinking back on it carefully, Renly couldn't help laughing out loud.
Since the "Pacific War", he has continued to move forward on the road of acting skills, and gradually built up his confidence in the flood of praise; he did not expect that today, due to such an introductory scene, he will break through, as if It's like a rookie who can't perform at all, exaggerated and confusing.
The kind of release that completely freed me, I returned to the starting point of my career and dreams after a long absence, and I felt the pure heart of those innocent years again.
Everyone always thinks that they can return to their original aspirations, rediscover the perseverance and enthusiasm at the beginning of their dreams, and rediscover the novelty and excitement at the beginning of life; but this is never easy, because everyone is growing, Everyone is also changing, and every bit of the past is quietly casting a new self.
In a trance, people have forgotten their original intentions, and even if they want to go back, they can't go back. "I can't go back", this is the most regrettable and most embarrassing sentence in the world. The original intention of the past has just disappeared in the process of growing up.
But he was lucky, "Gravity" reawakened Renly's enthusiasm for acting; and the scene just now reawakened Renly's original intention to perform.
Maybe that's what's special about being actors, because they always wear different masks, one of which is from the very beginning. Almost everyone is trying to forget their green years and burn those unbearable pasts, but Renly is eager to find the past again, and re-acquaint the young and energetic self.
That is also a part of me.
Undoubtedly, this is a really interesting thing. Involuntarily, Renly burst into laughter like this, sincerely.
Looking at Renly who was relaxed and in a light mood, Rooney felt the same way, with excitement and excitement surging in her chest, and then she raised her voice and said, "Emmanuel, can I try it? Performing under the iris robotic arm?"
Those eager eyes shone with light. Although there was no direct communication, Rooney could sense the changes in Renly's performance, and faintly, she also felt the mystery, and could not wait to try it out in person.
"I haven't finished the test yet, I want to do it again." Renly restrained his smile and said quickly and proactively.
The two actors started arguing like children.
