Chapter 78 Idols and Stories (2/5)

Performance, in terms of form, uses life experience as the language of art.

Luo Dan mentioned in "Rodan's Art": "The so-called masters are such people: they use their own eyes to see what others have seen, and can discover beauty in things that others are commonplace."

An actor without a life experience can only imagine it out of thin air, and will let his performance float in the air without a breath of life!

Fat Di, still has talent!

Actors need talent to act.

For actors, the most important talent is empathy or empathy.

That is, the ability to put yourself in the shoes of others and understand other people's emotions and emotions.

To put it simply, actors need to maintain sensitivity to the outside world, and sentimentality is the most important quality of actors.

Of course, hard work is important, but without talent, even if you work hard, the upper limit is not high. For example, Huo Jianhua and Peng Yuyan are typical examples of hard work, but at most they can achieve a performance that is not offensive.

What I fear most is that I don’t have talent and don’t work hard!

...

After dinner, Wan Qian accompanied Lu Xiaoran to have tea in the yard.

"What are you doing recently?"

"When you go to work normally, you can read books and movies when you have time, and make some small investments..."

“…Invest? What investment?”

"Visual Secret's brand value has shrunk rapidly. Some of my friends who are investing in short their stock prices. I followed suit and made a little profit..."

"Brand value shrinks?"

"…The corrupt lifestyle of capitalism... Forget it, frequent scandals and the impact of e-commerce such as Amazon, Victoria's Secret brand is no longer the same as it used to be... So, they are interested in the Chinese market, and it is useless... Chinese aesthetics and..."

Wan Qian was a little confused...

Lu Xiaoran shut up: "As an actor, don't care about these things!"

“…Then talk about the movies you watched?”

"Well, I've watched all Hitchcock's movies recently... I still feel shocked!"

"How to say it?"

"Hitchcock's film technique is a pure movie thing. He is really using the camera and editing these movie techniques to tell stories, directly leading a generation of filmmakers. His scripts are very detailed. Before each film starts filming, he already knows what it looks like, so the materials he shoots are very similar to the final film. This is a bit like doing animation, basically not shooting useless shots, and the ratio of many director materials to films may reach 1:10 or more..."

"My movie is very similar to him, and I rarely shoot extra materials...

"The first Hitchcock movie I watched was called "Soul-Snatching the Rope". Later, when I was studying the film, I learned a lot of behind-the-scenes stories. The whole film was filmed in only eight shots in 80 minutes..."

"Why are there eight shots? Because it takes only about 10 minutes to show a 35mm-length film roll!"

"He's so amazing, so I often tell you that there is no story in this world that Hitchcock hasn't filmed."

After a pause, Lu Xiaoran continued: "The current Hitchcock movies are probably only professional filmmakers who can appreciate the master's shooting skills. It is difficult for ordinary people to regain the exciting feelings of the past, because there are indeed so many suspense detective movies now. Whether it is the rigorous logic, the ingenious conception, the compact rhythm or the thriller level, they have surpassed their predecessors..."

Wan Qian was puzzled: "Then what are you learning?"

“…I’m thinking about a new movie, but the subject matter has not been selected yet…”

Lu Xiaoran suddenly sighed: "I'm thinking about what my movie is?"

"I used to think that movies just recorded stories with images..."

"Do you write the story yourself? Of course, you can only know how vast and difficult the world of movies is! At the beginning, you know a lot of scenery and stories, but you have never found your true heart, so it is easy to become homework, not work."

"Movies are typical three-act theory, which has always been hidden in the heart, beginning, confrontation, and ending, so that they look like a movie."

"Is it possible to use other structures? I don't think it's possible... because the essence of low-angying is a drama extension, and drama writing is usually a three-act drama..."

"...I am just a mediocre person, and sometimes I really feel that I am not talented enough!" Lu Xiaoran smiled bitterly: "These things have bothered me for a long time... The more movies I make, the more I can feel the difference between myself and many masters!"

Wan Qian did not answer the conversation, but asked, "Have you communicated with other people?"

"I have talked to Director A Mou, and he has similar dilemmas!"

"What dilemma?"

"I just can't satisfy myself. Even if many movies are successful, box office, or reputation, I am very clear about it. I think this should be better if it is not done well..."

"You both like to challenge yourself!"

"Ha ha…"

...

After chatting about some of the things that were not there, Wan Qian stopped talking when she saw that Lu Xiaoran was not very interested...

Lu Xiaoran leaned on the lounge chair, and the warm sunlight hit her body, as if everything was just right!

Wan Qian suddenly sighed...

She thought she knew Lu Xiaoran very well, and she was full of confidence in her impression, but she didn't expect that he was also confused!

Maybe this is the reason why he can keep improving!

Tangtang came over, looked at the sleeping Lu Xiaoran, and then asked Wan Qian: "What are you talking about?"

"Nothing, I don't understand what he pursues..."

"Pursue?"

"The pursuit of movies..."

Tangtang was stunned for a moment: "He just likes to be stubborn..."

"How did you know him?"

"I'm just working on "The Hidden". At that time, I was only 23 years old. I ran announcements every day, and it would be nice to be able to take on a show occasionally. I went to audition for "The Hidden", and he asked me to play Mu Wanqiu..."

"Did you pursue him on your own initiative?"

"Yes, he was a screenwriter, an actor or an assistant director at that time, so I thought he was good..."

"She's handsome?"

“…Yes, the main person is handsome!”

Tangtang couldn't help laughing and blooming...

To put it in, Tangtang and Lu Xiaoran were initially unequal to netizens.

Many people have always been so mean to her on her Weibo, saying that she is not worthy of Lu Xiaoran or something...

But one thing is unsatisfactory, that is Tangtang’s vision and courage.

Generally speaking, women should be more or less despised when pursuing men, such as not being reserved enough. But there is an exception, that is, the man was inconspicuous at the time but achieved great success in the future, such as the girl who ran to Li Jing at night, and Liang Hongyu knew Han Shizhong with keen eyes.

Therefore, the pursuit of sugar production has become a beautiful story, especially since the two of them have been through ups and downs, and they have a feeling of "knowing each other in a short while, and accompanying each other for years".

Candy Production doesn't mind the fact that it's chasing itself becomes a topic of conversation...

"Hey, I'll ask you, why do you two want children?"
