It’s not easy for anyone to work in Wei Jingcheng’s studio.
Meng Dong has no choice when it comes to makeup.
In the script, Lin Dan is twenty-nine years old, which is when a mature woman blooms her charm, especially since she is not only good-looking, but also has a successful career, which is the goal of most women.
Logically speaking, since she attaches great importance to appearance and regards it as a defense, she should also have extremely high requirements for her body shape and skin condition. However, in fact, in recent years, her illness has worsened, her depression has deepened repeatedly, and she has suffered from long-term insomnia.
, causing her to be extremely thin. Even though she spent a lot of money on skin care and her skin was in good condition, she could not hide her inherent gloom no matter what.
How to create this gloom is a great challenge for the makeup artist.
The first set of makeup Meng Dong chose was dark and matte.
After applying base makeup, in order to highlight her age, psychological and pathological state, she drew a strong and heroic upward eyebrow. The eye shadow was thicker to portray the sunken feeling of the eye sockets. Finally, she chose a retro lipstick with a matte texture.
red.
Wen Sui, who hadn't finished putting on makeup yet and was accompanying Xia Yu and the others in the dressing room while reading the script, didn't know where to focus her eyes.
Meng Dong has been in contact with Xia Yu for a long time, and has long been more familiar with Xia Yu's face, contours and facial features than his own. In just ten minutes, he revealed Xia Yu's contradictory sense of beauty - a sense of gloomy world-weariness.
Coming at you.
Especially Xia Yu consciously stepped into the role, which made the whole person look older.
Xia Yu suddenly became interested, stood up leisurely while holding on to the armrest, and said a line to Wen Sui, "How many years have we been together? Do you still remember which year you gave this notebook to me?"
After asking three questions in a row, he made a gesture of holding a cigarette between two fingers, taking a puff, and exhaling slowly.
At this moment, there seemed to be wisps of white smoke exhaled from her mouth, curling up, as if Lin Dan just walked out of the script.
Wearing a low-cut indigo-colored nightgown, it was not a nightgown, just a nightgown. When she wore it, she had the hazy feeling of a woman in her thirties, which made people's hands feel hot just looking at it. There was inexplicable emotion in her eyes...
Wen Sui's eyes suddenly became alert and she wanted to resist, but her whole body seemed to be disobedient.
Until 'Lin Dan' came closer and slowly leaned down, their eyes met, and their lips were only one or two centimeters apart...
Wen Sui seemed to hear her own heartbeat, which was crazy...
It wasn't until she swallowed hard that Xia Yu suddenly laughed and said, "If you don't cooperate, the show won't go on."
Only then did Wen Sui come back to her senses. As expected, her ears turned red again.
"Wonderful!" At this moment, not only Meng Dong exclaimed, the photographer came in when Xia Yu was about to put on her makeup. He was originally preparing to announce, but he didn't expect Xia Yu to suddenly enter the state. He quickly opened the small
The camera captured that scene.
After filming, he sighed, "The scene just now would have been even more amazing if you had actually had a cigarette in your hand!"
Fortunately, Wen Sui's back was turned to the photographer, otherwise that scene would have been consigned to black history by Wen Sui.
Xia Yu smiled, "The filming hasn't officially started yet, let's try it out.
Brother Han, have you had breakfast? If not, go and eat first. After eating, we will start shooting the content."
The photographer who was called Brother Han nodded when he heard this, gave a thumbs up and shook it toward the living room.
"You've finished eating a long time ago, and you just finished putting on your makeup. Let's try a few rounds first?"
Xia Yu nodded, "Sure! I'll listen to you!"
Before leaving the dressing room, Wen Sui's ears were no longer red, but she frowned, obviously still thinking about Xia Yu's sudden audition just now. It's not that she didn't think about cooperating, but she was a newcomer after all, so her reaction was a little slow.
After coming back to his senses, he started to feel resentful about not catching Xia Yu's play.
During the round-up reading, I tried to read the lines, but the situation was completely different. Not only Xia Yu, but also the other actors did not work hard at the round-up reading and put their best foot forward. Therefore, Wen Sui's rhythm was still stuck.
In the rhythm of reading around.
The scene just now was a new watershed zone for her!
Xia Yu walked closer and snapped his fingers, "I've come to my senses."
"Yubao!" Wen Sui was brought back to her senses. She looked up at Xia Yu, her eyes shining——
Everyone has experienced this before. It was not difficult for Xia Yu to guess what she was thinking and said, "If you want, I wouldn't mind auditioning with you in advance."
With Xia Yu's agreement, Wen Sui nodded quickly, "Yeah, yeah, yeah, I don't mind, I don't mind at all!"
Xia Yu smiled mysteriously, "Then I'll go back and ask Director Dai to help us make arrangements. Now I'm going to take pictures first."
Wen Sui didn't know it yet, but Xia Yu dug a hole for her, but whether she knew it or not, she would definitely jump down willingly.
The scene just now seemed to have opened up a new world for her, and she suddenly had a deeper understanding of Yu Junhao's transition into the film and television industry.
The living room was turned into a temporary photo studio. Although it was temporary, the equipment was no worse than an ordinary photo studio——
The only problem is the sound insulation, but this temporary studio is only used for taking pictures, so it doesn't matter.
When Xia Yu came out, the photography team was already ready.
Xia Yu greeted them, "I'm ready, thank you for your hard work!"
The blackout cloth covered the living room, the main light, and two LED continuous lights were ready. Xia Yu climbed into the bathtub in the middle. As Xia Yu took the pose, the lighting engineer took a cold flashlight to light up, and suddenly the studio was filled with light.
It dimmed, shrouded in dark blue and gray.
We're not taking final makeup photos yet, we're just trying out the makeup, so we don't have too many requirements. With a few "clicks" of the camera, this first set of makeup photos is complete.
Dai Chengbi didn't know when he entered the temporary studio. He grabbed the camera and looked through the photos he had just taken. He was quite satisfied with the makeup. He glanced at Xia Yu, nodded and smiled, "Not bad, I have to work hard for you these days."
Got it!"
Xia Yu got up from the bathtub and waved his hand, "By the way, if Director Dai really thinks I'm working hard, why don't you give me a little salary increase?"
Dai Chengbi's expression suddenly changed, and he was heartbroken, "I have invested all my investment in you, and now I don't have a penny left in my hand. I want to increase my salary. Do you think my life is worth anything? I don't have any money, but I only have one life!"
Xia Yu looked disgusted, "You can take it with you wherever it's cool."
Turned around and entered the clothing room.
Dai Chengbi looked triumphant, which made Wen Sui look down upon him, "Oh!"
"Go, go, go, people whose families own mines, how can they understand how hard it is for ordinary people like us to make money!"
