"When you analyze performances in the future, you must not just look at one clip, but must combine the character's situation and character." Nishino Kazuki was sitting on the sofa and was carefully teaching Hori Mina.
The latter had a serious look on his face. Although Nogizaka 46 occasionally had acting classes, they were only very superficial and usually had to be figured out by oneself. Horina felt that the acting knowledge Nishino Kazuki told was very fresh, and she quite liked it.
"Do you understand?" Nishino Kazuki saw that she was listening carefully and still taking notes, so he asked.
"Yeah." Horimina nodded her head continuously.
"Then let's analyze a specific example." Kazuki Nishino opened the script of the TV series, found a clip of the character played by Mina Hori, and handed it to her.
Hori Mina took the script and read it closely. She knew the plot very well. This plot is basically the most important scene in her role.
This story can be regarded as one of the branches of the whole story. The girl played by Hori Mina tried to save her boyfriend, but in the end it failed.
"What do you think is the key point of this scene?" Nishino Kazuki asked his students like a teacher.
Hori Mina raised her head and glanced at Nishino Kazuki, then went back to reading the script for a while, and then replied: "I think it should be the reluctance to let go of her boyfriend and the eagerness to stay."
"Then how to express this feeling?"
"It depends on the lines."
Nishino Kazuki glanced at her: "Who doesn't know how to rely on lines? Have you forgotten what I just analyzed?"
Hori Mina thought for a while and then said: "Based on the character's personality, how can we define the behavior she should do?"
Houli summarized it and found that he had a good understanding, at least he was not a fool.
"Yes, so you think about how to combine and perform this retention scene." Nishino Kazuki leaned back in his chair, and then said, "You think about it for a while, and we will perform it again later."
"Ah..." Horimina seemed unprepared, but immediately nodded again, "Oh, okay."
Two minutes passed.
"are you ready?"
"Well, that's enough." Horimina looked very confident, but she was quite confident in this kind of thing.
The two stood up from their seats and walked to an empty space in the living room.
This is a scene where two people came face to face, then the man broke up with her, and the woman tried her best to get back together but never succeeded.
The two of them took steps at the same time in a tacit understanding.
"Kitai-kun, what do you want from me?"
The character didn't know that he was about to be broken up at this time, so his tone was very relaxed and even a little bit excited. Hori Mina's dialogue skills were pretty good.
When Nishino Kazuki saw her, his eyes averted for a moment, then his expression suddenly changed and he looked at her curiously again.
"Nao-chan." Nishino Kazuki shouted in a low voice.
Hori Mina felt that the look in his eyes was very real, this sense of escape.
"Kita-kun, what's the matter with calling me out suddenly?" A smile appeared on Horimina's face.
"Actually..." Nishino Kazuki paused, "I have something important to tell you."
"What's going on?"
"Stop for a moment." Kazuki Nishino stopped the performance.
"What's wrong, Heshu-san?" Horimina didn't quite understand, and felt that she didn't make any mistakes.
"It's peaceful." Nishino Kazuki said.
"Eh?"
"I'm talking about your tone." Nishino Kazuki explained, "Although the other person's sentence is not long, the information you get after hearing the two sentences is different."
Houli waited for his explanation with a curious expression.
"The character you play, Nao Kurooka, is a girl with a delicate mind. When faced with a sudden meeting with her boyfriend, the tone of voice used in the first sentence is just right, but the second sentence obviously needs to change."
"So strict, Kazu-san." Horimina nodded immediately after finishing speaking.
Nishino Kazuki thought that since he called Hori Mina here, he must give her some training on her acting skills. Although it was a bit temporary, it would be useful to her in the future.
"continue."
The two played the role twice more, but Horina couldn't get into the mood. Although it was better than the first time, in the eyes of Nishino Kazuki, it was still not good enough.
"When you enter a play, you must devote yourself wholeheartedly to it, forget your current identity!" Nishino Kazuki said.
However, Hori Mina worked hard, and Nishino Kazuki's acting skills were a bit overwhelming, and she would always be taken to other places.
"Well, He Shusang, I have an idea." Horimina suddenly had an idea.
"what idea?"
"I will not play Nao Kuroka for now, I will treat myself as Nao Hori."
"How do you say that?" Nishino Kazuki asked curiously.
"You are not Keita Aso, but Kazuki Nishino." Horimina looked excited, as if she had come up with a good idea.
"You mean to use your own identity to play the role, but the lines are still the same?"
"right!"
Nishino Kazuki has never tried such a method, so he nodded and said: "Then give it a try."
So the two started.
Never came far.
"Wazhu-kun~" Hori Mina called out very smoothly. She had shouted this name in her heart countless times.
"Weiyana." Nishino Kazuki also called her name.
When Horimina heard this title, her heart suddenly felt completely different from before, and she reacted naturally.
"Heshu-kun, what's the matter with calling me out suddenly?"
She did a good job, and of course Nishino Kazuki will continue.
"Actually..." Nishino Kazuki took a small step back, "I think... we may not be suitable."
When Hori Mina heard this sentence, even though she had heard the lines many times, she still felt a little thump in her heart.
First my mind went blank, and then sadness came over me.
This is the same as what Nishino Kazuki just said!
"Why, why, Kazuki-kun?" Hori Mina's tears immediately gathered in her eyes. This is where her talent comes from. "Did I do something wrong?"
"I'm sorry, we are really not suitable." Nishino Kazuki said and turned around immediately.
The scene here was supposed to be Hori Mina grabbing Nishino Kazuki's arm, then throwing herself into his arms, saying some humble and pleading words, but the man still pushed her away cruelly, and finally left.
In fact, Hormiona also did the same.
She grabbed Nishino Kazuki's arm, and then Nishino Kazuki turned around, and Hori Mina suddenly ran into his arms.
"Kazuki-kun, don't leave me." Hori Wei Nai hugged her tightly, her voice was very low, but it gave Nishino Kazuki the feeling she should have.
"I'm sorry." Nishino Kazuki finished and waited.
Here, Hori Mionna should have tried to persuade her again, and then Nishino Kazuki shook his head again, pushed her away, and walked away.
But Hori Mina didn't say anything. She stood up on tiptoes, closed her eyes that were still bright even in the dim light, then tilted her head slightly and silently came closer.
