On the second day of the opening ceremony of "The Heir", director Huang Zutao filmed Li Zhongwu's scenes first as he said yesterday.
The first scene I shot today was in a hotel.
Before filming started, Li Zhongwu was called to a simple dressing room to put on makeup.
The makeup artist first asked him to change into a set of black kung-fu training clothes, then took two steps back, touched his chin and looked up and down at Li Zhongwu.
After looking at it for a moment, the makeup artist said: "Mr. Li, your temperament is actually very suitable for playing a ruthless killer. However, Zhao Hu in the script is the chief instructor of a security company, which is a high-ranking role. Therefore, I
I want to give you a hairstyle that suits the temperament of a chief instructor. I think a flat head might look good. Can you accept that I cut your hair shorter?"
When Li Zhongwu first came to this world, he had long hair that could be tied up in a shawl. Later, he found out that he would probably never return to the world of reincarnation, and now that the world is a modern world, he cut his hair into a three-quarter-length hair that exposed his ears.
.
Now the makeup artist said that she needs to cut her hair shorter and into a crew cut.
He didn't care, smiled and agreed.
Immediately, the haircut began.
The makeup artist was very skilled in cutting his hair and quickly gave him a crew cut. However, after examining it for a moment, the makeup artist said, "This length is still a bit too long. Can I cut it shorter for you?"
He raised his chin at Li Zhongwu, "Li Zhongwu, I'll call some of today's actors to come over. You try to use your grapple hand to beat them to death as quickly as possible. Let's discuss it after I see your fighting style."
How do you adjust it? What do you think?"
Li Zhongwu hummed.
Before Li Zhongwu could answer, Huang Jinhao gave the answer: "It's just to highlight your skill in the role of Zhao Hu!
Huang Jinhao sneered, "Then you are wrong! It is much more difficult to perform well in a role without lines than in a role with lines!
I have read the script of this play many times. I think the protagonists of today’s scenes, at first glance, are the third son of the Song family played by Ding Jianming, but in fact they are Zhao Hu played by you! These scenes are all for
Highlight the power of your character. Otherwise, the character who negotiates with the third son of the Song family in these scenes will be killed by Zhao Hu on the spot. There will be no more scenes for this character in the future. From the overall point of the script, this character will not appear much.
There is no need for a character to be killed within minutes, right?"
Huang Jinhao looked at Li Zhongwu, who had a crew cut, and said, "In the first scene later, you have no lines. You just follow the third son of the Song family to a hotel to meet an opponent. This scene mainly involves the third son of the Song family negotiating with the opponent, and then
The talks broke down and you suddenly took action to kill someone.
"Um."
Huang Jinhao walked to Li Zhongwu, pulled up a chair, sat down heavily, and said slightly out of breath: "The role of Zhao Hu has very few lines and a lot of fighting scenes, so I hope you can play that kind of ruthless person."
It feels like a ruthless person who doesn’t talk much, do you know what I mean?”
Huang Zutao looked Li Zhongwu up and down, nodded slightly, "This image is okay, let's just set the makeup like this!"
When Huang Jinhao said this, he would also demonstrate it himself from time to time.
Li Zhongwu felt that he was quite serious about his work.
Li Zhongwu looked at his short hair of less than an inch in the mirror, nodded, and still had no objection.
"Do you really understand?"
The play is also very clear.
When the third son of the Song family played by Ding Jianming suddenly makes a gesture and asks you to kill someone, you suddenly raise your head or turn your head to look at the target. Remember! The speed of raising your head or turning your head must be fast, the faster the better! This can create a good image
Feel a sharp feeling, then don't hesitate, don't hesitate for half a second, as soon as you look at the target, pounce on it, use your fastest speed to solve the opponent!
As for how to fight, the action director will design it for you later. In short, no matter what kind of action scene the action director designs for you, you'd better be able to show the performance skills I just told you. How about
?Do you understand what I mean?"
In this scene, you don't have to say a word the whole time. You just follow Ding Jianming, who plays the third son of the Song family, into the hotel, and then when Ding Jianming negotiates with his opponent, you just stand next to Ding Jianming the whole time. It sounds like a good performance.
no?"
As he walked, he said: "Li Zhongwu, let me tell you about a play. I heard that you have never acted, but it's not a big problem. Your roles are basically fighting scenes, so the requirements for your personal acting skills are not high, but
It would definitely be better if you could perform the characteristics of the character Zhao Hu, right?"
"clear."
Immediately, Huang Zutao waved to Ju Xudong, who was not far away.
Huang Jinhao: "But this character appeared in the script. Have you ever thought about why?"
This fat man with thin skin and tender flesh no longer had the smile on his face that he had seen among the women yesterday. The expression on his chubby face turned out to be quite serious.
Li Zhongwu hummed in agreement again.
…
Ju Xudong's expression was somewhat self-deprecating, and he looked at Li Zhongwu, "Uncle Huang, I have planned all the other action scenes in this movie, but the grapple used by the character Zhao Hu is something that only Li Zhongwu knows, so his action scenes
How to design, I can't have any ideas now, otherwise..."
He was trying to understand the professional level of this fat man and see if he was suitable to win over him and become the director of his new drama in the future.
"That would be the best! I'll see how you perform later."
Of course, I know this may be difficult for you, so I suggest that when Ding Jianming is negotiating with his opponent, you can look at your toes with an indifferent expression, or look at a painting on the wall,
He seems to be distracted or indifferent.
"Okay, then it's time to work."
But when Ding Jianming makes a gesture asking you to deal with your negotiating opponent, there should be an obvious change in your eyes, such as the "cold light flash", "cold light suddenly appears" and so on in the novel.
Li Zhongwu came out of the dressing room and was called by the director's assistant to director Huang Zutao.
When Ju Xudong came over, Huang Zutao said: "A Dong, you are the action director. Do you have any ideas on how to play these scenes today? Have you designed the action scenes?"
Li Zhongwu hummed again.
Therefore, in these scenes in the hotel today, at first glance, the protagonist is the third son of the Song family played by Ding Jianming, but in fact the protagonist is you! Therefore, from the first second on the stage, you have to give a different flavor to the performance! I
It is recommended that you show your expression from several aspects such as your expression, eyes, and the suddenness and ruthlessness of your attack. For example, when you follow Ding Jianming on the stage, your eyes should be cold, which can be cold, indifferent, or melancholy.
It doesn't matter if you're crazy or crazy, in short, it must be different from the eyes of ordinary people.
Li Zhongwu looked at Huang Jinhao through the mirror in front of him.
At this moment, the dressing room door was pushed open, and Huang Zuntao's son Huang Jinhao, whom he had met yesterday, walked in with a big belly and a frown on his face.
"Can!"
Li Zhongwu nodded.
"This is a good idea, let's start quickly!"
Huang Zutao became interested and immediately urged him.
