Chapter 474: Not knowing the true face of Mount Lu
Deng Chao’s words certainly have elements of praising Fang Yi, but he does look good.
It is said that there are many handsome men in modern times, but there are few handsome men in ancient costumes, because the whole face must be exposed in the costumes. At this time, various facial defects are obvious in front of the camera and cannot be modified.
Why is Jiao Enjun a god in ancient costume and the reincarnation of Erlang God?
Because this man's three eyes, five eyes and even body shape are so iconic. The director chose Erlang Shen for the CCTV version of "Lotus Lantern". After interviewing a lot of handsome guys, the director was not satisfied. He said, "I only want the most handsome one, the most handsome one!"
At that time, Jiao Enjun was not available, so the director had to wait until he was available for his sake.
He couldn't describe how handsome he was, he just emphasized "the most".
Maybe the audience is more descriptive than him, thinking, "I knew Erlang Shen couldn't be a villain, because he is too handsome. I don't believe that this kind of person can be a villain. I always believe that he has difficulties..."
If it were an ugly guy, even if he had superb acting skills, he wouldn't be able to achieve the effect.
When Fang Yi first debuted, he was a bit handsome and had a soft side. After some exercise, he applied fat like crazy and his facial lines became more obvious. After growing up in the past few years, his chin was inevitably a little wider than when he was eighteen.
He looks just right now and is very heroic.
The makeup artist gave him sword eyebrows to deepen his temperament.
His performance as Chongzhen may not be consistent with the historical image of Chongzhen as a subjugated king, but rather resembles Li Shimin who returned from the war. But there is nothing that can be done about it, because "Xiu Chun Knife" is expected to sell money, and it is impossible to portray Fang Yi
Put on makeup to make you look ugly.
Lu Yang was quite satisfied and said: "Our Emperor Chongzhen has only shown his face a few times. He is mysterious and does not show the mountains and rivers... Think about it in a movie theater, the plot is a bit boring, the camera moves up, and the audience sees
If you read this version of Chongzhen, why don’t you wake up immediately?”
"Why?"
Someone answered: "Because he is handsome!"
Lu Yang: "Hey! This is what top actors know, it can improve the director's creative ability... I find that some directors either don't have that ability or they don't have the conditions."
The play "Xiu Chun Dao" is about a dispute in the court. Lu Jianxing, who planned to take the blame and just wanted to die, was escorted to the emperor. After asking him whether he knew or not, he found that he didn't know all the questions. For the sake of the overall situation, Emperor Chongzhen
Fearing that an in-depth investigation would affect the balance between the civil servants and eunuch factions, Lu Jianxing was sentenced to death.
————
Liao Fan knelt in front of Fang Yi, raised his head and looked up, his eyes narrowed.
Fang Yi: "Lu Jianxing?"
"Villain Lu Jianxing."
"Did you let Wei Zhongxian go?"
"yes."
"Why?"
Liao Fan couldn't answer because his role couldn't be explained.
Fang Yi immediately understood that this person was a scapegoat, but he continued to ask, "Where is Wei Zhongxian?"
"The villain doesn't know."
"Who ordered you?"
"No one instigated it, no one conspired with it, Lu Jianxing did it alone."
With a wave of his hand, Lu Jianxing was escorted out.
It is a very simple play, as Lu Yang said, "Put on your clothes, sit there, eh, the play is done."
Because the skill lies not in acting, but in directing.
"Xiu Chun Knife" has many plots, involving intrigues, rivers and lakes, emotions, teachers... I can't explain it in a few words. The three Jin Yiwei brothers are all thugs of a big shot, and their fate is largely driven by the big shot behind them.
But it's not very new. In fact, seniors have filmed it many times.
It is worth mentioning Lu Yang’s use of lighting.
With the investment amount of 30 million in the Republic Era, some of Lu Yang's ideas were realized. Fang Yi discovered that the light panels for him in this scene were not ordinary lighting panels, but dancing candles - hundreds of dollars in total.
A candle illuminated the entire hall where the scene was taken, and it was also the only light source at the scene.
Lu Yang requested that no modern light sources be allowed to exist.
The candle flame was weak, jumping, intermittently but always burning.
As soon as Fang Yi entered the scene, he understood the magical effect of Lu Yang's operation. The younger brother showed off his skills. He and Guo Fan are indeed different. Their styles are very different.
After the play was over, Fang Yi was so happy that he asked Lu Yang directly: "I want to guess why you must use candlelight. Don't tell me the answer. See if I got to the point."
Lu Yang was very proud. He looked around at other people's expressions and said loudly: "It's different shooting with Director Fang. You'll understand right away."
"It has two uses, I thought..." Fang Yi did not look at the monitor, but directly imagined the scene in his mind, "On the one hand, it must have simulated the real light source in ancient times, because the candlelight is very weak compared to modern light sources, so
You have to use a lot of candles to make up for the quality gap with quantity.”
"The other aspect is artistic expression." Fang Yi said.
Lu Yang: "I want to hear how Director Fang understands this expression."
"This is indeed quite wonderful. It's a small innovation. Generally speaking, candlelight is used in the wedding night, right? It expresses the entanglement between lovers. The light disappears and appears like the fire of love.
, also introduces a kind of imaginative space... As for you, you have done the opposite. You compare the beating firelight to the inner activities of the characters, overtly and covertly expressing the fluctuations of the human heart, but it is not as rigid as modern light.
It’s a psychological suggestion.”
This is the beauty of the shooting technique, that is, the audience does not understand that the hammer is used, but his eyes are not deceiving, so the subconscious will react, and the idea will follow the director's design. Again, even though he has no idea about these techniques.
Lu Yang touched his palms and sighed: "Well said."
Then Fang Yi said: "Can I look at the monitor to see how the performance goes?"
Lu Yang made a surprised expression: "You can't watch it yet. Our crew is very equal. All the main actors can watch it."
As soon as the two of them sing in harmony, the rest will be known. In fact, what they say is ironic. Even if you have the ability to read it, you have to get Lu Yang's consent to find out who is talking about it.
Because Director Fang has to make a gesture.
In the camera, Fang Yi's appearance is indeed quite complicated. He has an upright face and sharp eyebrows, but the eerie firelight dances and matches his lines, which implies that Emperor Chongzhen's heart and appearance are two different things.
This is the skill of the director. Fang Yi is very happy. Such complex emotions cannot be performed by actors. Lu Yang showed his talent.
Lu Yang said: "It is precisely because Director Fang came to help with the guest appearance that we found the most suitable actor in the world for this part. Others can't get this level of contrast, and they are not worthy of my candles."
.”
Then he filmed some literary dramas, and Fang Yi found some good ideas. Obviously Lu Yang had carefully created for his role, and he was not playing a role purely for fame.
After filming was completed, he called Guo Fan and told what he had seen today, hoping that Director Guo could make up for his shortcomings.
Guo Fan has always been a bit rough in delicate expressions, if he could combine it with Lu Yang's delicate sense...
But Guo Fan posted a photo of himself wearing an explosion-proof suit: he threw himself in the new container experiment of cold explosion.
He said: "I know what's wrong with me, but I use my strengths and avoid my weaknesses... And if you really want to learn, it's better to just learn to be both special effects and lyrical. I know a young director who is like this
, I am only convinced by him, and I am only willing to learn from him."
Fang Yi was shocked: "Who is it? I don't know yet."
"Director Fang, you actually asked me who that person is? It's just because he is in this mountain."
