In order to catch up on the previously exceeded shooting time, the crew was still divided into two groups.
Wei Jingcheng Studio is worthy of its wealth. In order to create a sense of reality, it spent huge sums of money to build a city outside the Xiangshan Film and Television Base!
Half past two in the afternoon.
On set.
The director was replaced by Chen Chuan. As soon as Xia Yu and the actor who played the role of the scholar Yuxiao arrived, Chen Chuan took them to explain.
When Chen Chuan tells the drama, he has the consistent style of Wei Jingcheng Studio, which is concise and to the point. He tells the main details to the actors. How much the actors can understand is up to the actors themselves.
The first scene is Xia Yu's one-man show.
Still playing games.
Due to the impact of last night's incident, Chen Chuan was worried that Xia Yu was not in good condition. When he was taking her to the location, he specifically talked to her, "I've seen your fight scene, it's very beautiful. I heard Lao Chi say that you and Liang Lao
Have you studied for a while?”
Xia Yu responded, "Yes, I learned Baguazhang from Mr. Liang for a while."
Chen Chuan nodded, "It happened unexpectedly. I don't have time for you to practice your fighting moves. I will give you half an hour to practice with the martial arts instructor. I will give you two chances. We will shoot two scenes. If it doesn't work, we will have to use force instead."
Finished some filming."
Xia Yu, "Cheng."
Chen Chuan nodded, and according to his general arrangement, this scene was best done with force. The effect was definitely not as good as Xia Yu's self-help, but the time was too short, and he couldn't bear Chi Chong's praise, "This little girl
Your talent in martial arts is recognized by that old man Liang Quanzhen, you can give it a try!"
He muttered, "Then give it a try!"
Chen Chuan said hello, and the martial arts instructor assigned to the second group quickly found Xia Yu.
"Brother Lu."
Lu Jin was Liang Quanzhen's apprentice and was assigned to the second group. Xia Yu could still meet with them from time to time, and occasionally asked them to help bring snacks to Xiao Guohao. The relationship was maintained fairly well.
Lu Jin was hanging out in the circle, so it was impossible that he hadn't heard about Xia Yu, but Xia Yu didn't expect him to say such a thing.
"Well, Master asked me to tell you this morning that if it's not easy to get along in the Mainland, he can help say hello in Xiangjiang." The circle in the Mainland does not have a great influence on the Xiangjiang side.
Xia Yu was flattered, nodded solemnly, and said with a smile: "Brother, please help me thank Mr. Liang. I'm fine here. If I really can't get along, I'm afraid I'll have to trouble Mr. Liang a lot. I'll also ask my brother to help me."
I want to say thank you to him!"
These are all digressions, let’s turn to the main business. As one of Mr. Liang’s favorite disciples, Lu Jin naturally has a good way. This set of fighting scenes is not very complicated, but it is definitely very exciting. It is just different from the previous ones.
The supporting roles are different. Xia Yu is the main character in this scene, so the difficulty is different.
Still use a sword.
Fortunately, Xia Yu had some foundation and really good talent. Lu Jin first taught Xia Yu a complete set of designed moves, and then gave her instructions while giving her moves. In half an hour, she was already fighting impressively.
After the last rehearsal, Lu Jin and Chen Chuan said they could give it a try.
He said, "Some dangerous actions are still carried out by military personnel, but most of the rest are up to you."
"Thank you, senior brother!"
With Lu Jin's approval, Chen Chuan's whole person became more alive. If he could use a real person, which director would want to use a stand-in?
Chen Chuan approached Xia Yu and said, "Hurry up and put on your makeup and try to complete the shooting before the first set!"
Although Meng Dong is not old, she is still very professional in joining the group. In addition, she understands Xia Yu's facial contours better than the average person, so she can draw them more easily.
Xia Yu finished her makeup, put on her coercion clothes, and changed her clothes. The coercion wires were already placed on her body.
After Chen Chuan confirmed that the props team, the venue was all set, the extras and martial arts actors were in their positions, and nothing was missing, he signaled to the recorder to mark the stage.
"The xx unit of "Stunning Beauty Per Capita", the xx scene, begins!"
This scene tells the story of Shenzhaoshan investigating the whereabouts of the Shenzhao Sutra and coming to Mingyu Palace, where the Shura girl was surrounded and killed.
As the sound of beating the board rang out, the group performers who were assigned to their respective positions immediately rushed over according to the order of the drill, shouting to fight and kill!
What this scene wants to show is the martial arts skills of the Shura girl. It is almost her personal show. She is naturally not afraid of facing these people.
In the camera, Xia Yu is dressed in gray clothes, showing his true nature as Shura.
But outside the camera, two cameras, one behind the other, almost hit her in the face. Lu Jin and several staff members surrounded her, correcting her movements at any time, and at the same time avoiding the possible consequences of some difficult movements.
protect against dangers.
To be honest, it's really difficult to step into the role at times like this.
Moreover, there was indeed a big difference between the drill and the actual shooting. Before even a minute was up, we were ordered to stop.
"Click!"
"It has nothing to do with the actor. Just keep it as it is, Xia Yu. The camera crew will adjust the camera position again. Camera No. 2 is a little further back. Don't touch the actor's back or sides!"
Although the camera position, actor's position, and martial arts movements are designed from the beginning, there is always a little bit of inexperience during the actual shooting process, which is a process of running into each other.
If it were a normal crew, it wouldn't matter, but Wei Jingcheng Studio is notoriously picky.
There were slight errors in the next two shots. It took about three or four shots before I finally got into the mood. Not only Chen Chuan, but also Xia Yu also made constant adjustments during this process, constantly weakening the presence of the people around him in order to maximize the effect.
Take on the role.
"According to the script, the character of Shura Girl came from the edge of death, so the designed movements are extremely sharp, almost drawing blood, and there is no hesitation or stagnation!"
Gradually, Xia Yu gave people a different feeling.
In fact, Xia Yu didn't know that there was actually no big problem with the filming of the scenes just now. It was Chen Chuan's own problem. If he hadn't seen the scenes that Xia Yu shot at the Northwest Film and Television Base, forget it, but after seeing
After that, I felt very itchy.
Therefore, he originally discussed with Chi Chong that the martial arts scene should be performed with martial arts as much as possible, but he changed his mind on the spot. He did not deny that he was gambling. He is a messy character anyway. If the filming does not go well, it will be extended by a day or two at worst. Anyway, the investors are willing
Invest money!
If he had been the day before, he would have not been worried. What was there to worry about? But it was different now. Although Chi Chong and he had ordered the crew to keep their mouths shut and not cause trouble, what happened on this day, let alone a little girl
Well, if it had been him, Chi Chong and the other two elder men might not be able to calm down. Even if they managed their facial expressions well, their mentality would definitely be unstable.
In fact, Chen Chuan has made many plans to spend the whole afternoon here.
Unexpectedly, the first shot was very good, almost passable in one shot! But this situation attracted him, and he felt that it could be better, so he had these few shots, until this time
One piece!
When he noticed a change in Xia Yu's state, his whole body became energetic.
In the camera, Xia Yu has disappeared, and in her place is the Shura girl who made the world tremble!
When the last person was killed by her sword, her expression changed briefly.
At first, she felt pity for the massacred Mingyu Palace, and then she felt at a loss, until she became numb. She had killed too many people since she was a child, and she didn't know how long such a life would last. Finally, she raised her eyes,
All her emotions disappeared, leaving only a chill that belonged to the Shura woman. This look was enough to make people tremble!
At this moment, the surrounding crew members, even those who didn't understand the drama, could feel Xia Yu's emotions. Those who knew a little bit didn't even want to blink.
Unexpectedly, suddenly, a "click!" interrupted everyone's emotions.
Everyone's face was full of doubts, "It's already played out like this, but it's not in place yet?"
Just when they thought they were going to take another shot, Chen Chuan adjusted the camera, looked over the previous section again, and then said, "This section is over!"
"Scared to death~" Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
To be honest, Chen Chuan didn't have high hopes for this afternoon's scene. He felt that as long as the scene reached the standard, it would be passable. After all, TV series are not movies. There is no need to be picky. Every scene strives for perfection. As long as music is added in post-production, it will be fine.
It was created.
But he didn't expect that Xia Yu gave him a surprise, and he caught the surprise and dug deeper, and finally came across such a scene!
After watching it twice, Chen Chuan couldn't help but murmur, "If we can achieve this kind of effect, once we process it in post-processing, I'm afraid it won't be worse than the movie!"
Chen Chuan didn't know that Xia Yuguang had written most of a notebook about Mu Wushuang. She basically had a thorough understanding of this character and had the experience of the original owner. What Mu Wushuang was like at each stage was in her mind
Already counted.
He looked at Xia Yu with a searching look in his eyes. He felt that maybe he could put aside his subjective assumption that romance dramas are not good and look at "The Misty Rain of the Republic of China" which was popular all over the country and had a rating of 7.
He went from being a director's assistant to being one of the top three directors at Wei Jingcheng Studio today. Although most of the work was supported by his peers, compared to Lao Wei and Lao Chi, he was still far behind, but there were quite a few actors he had worked with.
!
The number of people who can achieve this step in their early twenties and express their emotions clearly and clearly is less than one palm!
With a smile on his face, he said, "I found a treasure!"
Thinking of the news that Xia Yugang had terminated her contract with Shengtang Media, I couldn't help but sigh, "This little girl is really extraordinary. She was not affected by public opinion and her mentality was adjusted in such a short period of time."
"That's right, the one two years ago was probably more difficult than the one today. After we got through that one, today is nothing."
"It would be good if we could sign this little girl to the studio!" As for the issue of boycott by the whole network, he and Chi Chong had similar ideas after discussing it. It's not that they want to be a star, actors just need to be able to act.
.
As for her character, even the old man Liang Quanzhen is willing to drink half a cup of her tea. How bad can this little girl be?
"With this little girl's understanding and polishing, if she catches the eye of Lao Wei and has some guidance from Lao Wei, she might be able to carry the banner of the studio in the future!"
But it's too early to think about this at the moment.
Xia Yu didn't know that someone was already poaching him because of a few scenes.
——————————
——————
The first scene was shot [The Shura Girl bloody massacres Mingyu Palace].
The second scene of shooting [Leaving on a straw boat by the Xijiang River and looking at the scholar with jade flute],
As for Shen Luo and his team's pursuit, that will be the subject of additional filming later.
After filming the first scene, Chen Chuan's confidence in Xia Yu doubled, and even the actor who played the role of Jade Flute scholar was eager to try it out.
To be on the safe side, Chen Chuan explained the situation to be photographed thoroughly to the two of them, even including when to turn his head, raise his head, and express his gaze.
After the explanation, the props were dyed with fake blood on Xia Yu's costume, and Xia Yu was arranged to get on the straw boat.
Wait until the straw boat reaches the center of the river and secure it.
Here, another actor also stood up according to the director's arrangement and made an OK gesture to Chen Chuan.
Everything is ready.
As soon as the blower blew, it created an artistic conception of autumn desolation and twilight streams and rivers, and the scene notes were immediately written.
The emotions of both people changed in an instant, and Chen Chuan's eyes suddenly narrowed.
