In the camera, Yang Mi screamed and danced desperately with all his limbs. It was so exaggerated and artificial that Tang An couldn't help but shake his head.
However, the lighting engineer Sanbao did a very good job. As the light shines, the water tank slowly turns into a blood-like bright red from bottom to top, pointing directly to the entire scene.
Tang An did not stop and allowed Yang Mi to continue acting.
After more than a minute, Yang Mi came out of the water when she couldn't hold it in any longer.
"director...!"
"Dry the water on your body first and put on your clothes so you don't catch a cold!"
Tang An waved his hand and continued to observe the long shot just now.
Only by finding the problem can we solve the problem. In the half minute just now, Yang Mi expressed almost every fear expression she could think of. Now all Tang An has to do is delete, add, and correct!
"Come see your show!"
Tang An made room on the bench for Yang Mi and waved to her.
Yang Mi sat obediently next to Tang An, looking at his sharp profile and neat short hair, his serious expression made Yang Mi's face turn red.
I don't know if it's because I'm embarrassed because my performance is not good, or because I'm shy.
"Look at the scene where you just fell into the water. Imagine what it would be like for an ordinary person to be suddenly dragged into the water by something!"
Tang An's words interrupted Yang Mi's thoughts, and she quickly stared at the monitor carefully.
"You were pulled into the water, and your hands should be raised, just like this. Then people are often overwhelmed by sudden unknown situations and close their eyes subconsciously!"
As Tang An spoke, he made corresponding movements and expressions while sitting.
"Then you fell to the bottom of the sea and felt the pain in your legs. At this time, it was not only pain, but also fright and fear of unknown things!"
"When faced with the possibility of being attacked by an unknown creature, people will subconsciously wave their arms to try to drive it away."
"Then the expression on your face, what's going on with you screaming?"
"...I'm afraid." Yang Mi said softly.
"Don't open and close your mouth, open it as wide as possible, expand your entire facial muscles, and tilt your head at a 60-degree angle!"
"Then you swim as hard as you can. Now you can move your hands wildly, and it doesn't matter if you open your teeth or claws. Instead, you can express the character's desire to survive more strongly."
"I didn't show my teeth and claws!" Yang Mi cursed in a low voice.
"What?"
"Ah...it's nothing, that...I'm ready!"
"Then let's get started!"
"Scene 15, one shot, twenty-four times!" Dabao said.
This time Yang Mi has made much better progress than before, but he has not yet reached Tang An's requirements!
"Very good, there is progress, let's try again!"
After some encouragement, I started again!
Twenty-fifth time!
Twenty-sixth time!
...
The thirty-second time!
"Click!"
"Pass!"
Tang An breathed a sigh of relief and took the photo thirty-two times before finally passing the test.
As long as the actors get into the mood, the next scene will be easy to handle!
"It's finally finished. I've painted the board dozens of times!" Dabao imitated Tang An and sighed, patting his chest.
"Go ahead and buy your own snacks!" Tang An smiled, touched Dabao's crew cut, and handed him a dollar.
Dabao cheered, greeted Sambo and ran out barefoot.
Tang An put away the lights and background board, found the background board and replaced it, "Luckily, it didn't last until the next day!"
"Director, am I too stupid?" Yang Mi sat next to him with his clothes on, saying with some frustration.
"How could it be? You performed well, much better than in the morning!" Tang An turned around to encourage her and went back to painting the jellyfish in front of her.
Fortunately, creatures like jellyfish are easy to draw, otherwise Tang An would not be able to handle it with his poor art skills.
"Okay, let's get started!"
An hour later, Tang An completed his painting, colored it, and it still looked like it!
"Wow, director, your paintings are so beautiful!" Yang Mi exclaimed from the side.
Xu Ruoyun also came over to take a look, her eyes becoming more and more surprised.
Originally, she didn't believe that Tang An was doing all the work on the crew by himself, as he was just acting like a dead horse.
Unexpectedly, the crew went surprisingly smoothly in the past few days. The test screening, lighting, props, recording, art, and coordination were all handled by one person.
Although this is also the reason for the small size of the crew, even this is admirable enough.
You must know that the scenes of those literary and artistic films that specialize in the European market are not complicated and still require dozens of people to complete them.
Maybe he can really make a good movie!
The filming continued, and Yang Mi climbed into the water tank again with a frown on her face. She had been in it for more than 8 hours today, and she probably wouldn't want to swim again after the work was over.
Put the background board in place, and take out a dozen prop jellyfish and put them into the water on the side of the camera.
If you use the background board alone, it will look a bit fake and there will be no three-dimensional effect.
"Okay, all departments are ready!"
"Yang Mi, you have to show a desperate posture. A bloodthirsty shark is chasing you behind you. I want to see the effect of your all-out efforts!"
"Scene 39, one shot, one shot!"
"start!"
Following Tang An's order, Yang Mi swam desperately on the spot, as if there was a shark chasing her behind.
The light of this shot was relatively dark, so I could barely get through it the first time, but Tang An still asked for a retake.
What follows is a series of close-up shots of being stung by jellyfish. Tang An took out a few more prop jellyfish from the side and waved to Yang Mi.
"Director!" Yang Mi walked over wearing clothes.
"Arms out!"
"Ah..." Yang Mi was confused, "Left hand or right hand?"
"Left hand!"
"Oh!" Yang Mi obediently stretched out his left hand.
Tang An touched it with both hands, startling Yang Mi, and subconsciously withdrew his hand.
"Don't worry! I won't take advantage of you!" Tang An said helplessly.
Yang Mi's face turned red. She was not afraid of Tang An taking advantage of her.
During the previous filming of the scene on the beach, he wore a bikini for several days. Tang An didn't even look at him with that lewd look. He was just a subconscious action when someone of the opposite sex suddenly touched him.
"oh..."
“The skin is very white!”
Tang An grabbed Yang Mi's arm, looked it over, squeezed it with his hand, and grabbed her wrist with his left hand, "It might hurt a little, Ninja!"
Yang Mi still doesn't know what Tang An wants to do, but a girl's sixth sense tells him that it won't be a good thing, so he can only nod in confusion.
Tang An's right hand grasped the softer part of her biceps, and his palm could just wrap around it.
Pinch it with a little force and turn it down.
"ah......"
The sudden pain made Yang Mi scream out instantly. His face was wrinkled and full of grievances, and he almost cried.
"Director Tang, what are you doing!" Xu Ruoyun, who was watching from the sidelines, rushed over quickly, with an obvious questioning tone in his tone!
Tang An ignored her, looked at the skin that had turned red due to the accumulation of red blood cells under the skin, and nodded with satisfaction.
Being stung by a jellyfish and turning your body red is the most primitive and realistic way.
Also, I saved a little money on paint...
