The small town of Sneem is like a paradise isolated from the world, without the hustle and bustle of vehicles, no noise of human voices, and even silhouettes are not very common. It is thus far away from the modern civilization of the city and wandering in the green ocean. Let the tension relax little by little.

It is even more peaceful than the original "gravity" shooting base. After all, it is the shooting base of Warner Bros. Although it is located in a remote area, you can occasionally see vehicles and villagers coming and going, and occasionally you can see fans who make a special pilgrimage. It is not noisy but also lively.

But the small town of Sneem is a pure town. It is not widely known for the time being. It is like a paradise. It is so quiet that the time settles down. No wonder people often say that there is no time in the mountains, and there is no sense of the torrent of time. , Everything slowed down.

After arriving on the crew, the actors began to practice the script, but this time the practice was slightly different from the past.

As usual, the actors are familiar with the roles by reading the script aloud, and are able to familiarize themselves with each other; at the same time, the director modifies the performance according to his own needs and understanding, so that the actors have a relatively clear understanding of the performance style and context of the performance before the filming begins. Frame, which not only saves time, but also saves film. For small-cost independent crews, this is a very necessary link.

But the problem now is that Oggs's script is still not finished, especially after entering the forest, it needs to be filmed and created at the same time, which also creates many difficulties for script practice.

From a creative point of view, in fact, the main line of the plot has not changed much. The story is still that story. The parts that Ougs needs major surgery to modify have been completed; but from the perspective of performance, what really changes is the lines, Performance details such as mood, condition, etc.

For example, when facing the same scene, in the original script, David may have responded in this way, but now the character setting has changed, then the lines need to be adjusted, or the mood is different— —In the future, Oggs needs to complete the creation while shooting, and that's it. This is also the reason why the film can be started when the script is not completely created, and it can be played on the spot.

It's just that script exercises can't go smoothly: because the mood and state of the character can't be determined.

In the end, the script exercises evolved into another appearance, the discussion meeting.

In fact, it is just like the original discussion between Lan Li and Ougs. Everyone expresses their own views on the plot and characters, and explores the other's views from the opponent's actors, and interprets the story and the core from different angles——

In the context of Ogus, he hopes to maintain the diversity and complexity of the whole story, and has the possibility of extending in different directions. Then, relying only on Ogus or Renly’s wisdom, this must exist. There are limitations, because everyone’s thinking has their own limitations and blind spots. Only by brainstorming can truly present a colorful social level. Therefore, Lan Li took the initiative to put forward such an idea.

Oggs reserved his attitude. He felt that such a blossoming discussion method could easily fall out of the frame and eventually deviate from his original intention. Then the style of the whole movie would become complicated, which would be more than the gain; but Oggs did not object. , He still opened up the possibility.

Soon after, Oggs understood Lanly’s intentions:

The entire cast of the cast was formed after Oggs nodded, and each of the actors was selected for special reasons. The fit between them and the characters is what Oggs values ​​most. In other words, they There are similarities between them and the characters, which allows them to derive their own ideas based on the style of Oggs, fill up the characters little by little, and enrich the story level.

Here, Oggs must face a serious challenge-how to master the scale.

Just like the original script of "Jurassic World", the greed of biochemical weapons, the ambition of human beings to call themselves God, the humanity of respecting life and the importance of family belonging, the moral of the whole story is extremely large and extremely greedy, but nothing can be done. Speaking well, on the contrary, weakened the depth of the story. Later, the script was revised to condense the core, and the fluency and concentration were also guaranteed.

Oggs is also facing the same problem, but compared to the "Jurassic World", the pattern and attributes of "Lobster" have inherent advantages, because the depth of thought itself is hidden in the background of the entire story, and there is no need to do it anymore. Digging or raising it does not require plot lines and carvings.

What Oggs needs to do now is not to add content greedily, but to give the actors enough space to play on the basis of the original story, and then modify some lines, so that the performance can fit within the framework of the story and derive the character himself The ultimate goal of the flesh and blood is to make the setting of this "utopia" more slender and more emotional, which is enough to achieve a strong reflection effect.

Of course, talking on paper is easy, but practical operation is difficult. Oggs still has a lot of work to be done.

The script practice lasted for a full two weeks, which far exceeded expectations. According to the original plan, I practiced for up to five days and then went directly to filming, but the development of things gradually gave rise to infinite possibilities, just like David and The role of a woman has its own attributes, and other roles also have their own monolithic veins.

It must be emphasized that the original settings for the supporting actors in the Oggs script are correct, and there is no need to make extensive changes like David and the woman; but now, the script exercises have given these contexts more clarity. The definition is also more accurate, giving the performance a clearer direction, which is a good thing for the actors.

Sharpen the knife and chop wood by mistake. The elongated script exercises provide a solid foundation for actual shooting, just like rehearsing repeatedly before the official performance of a stage play.

When the film finally officially started shooting, this subtle change can be felt from the first scene.

"He thinks these brown leather shoes are the most suitable choice. He has some pain in his back, but unlike the past, it is no longer the unbearable pain."

"He thought to himself, his wife chose to leave for love, so why did he continue to insist on it? He didn't cry bitterly about it, nor did he expect that the first reaction when other people face the separation is to cry. . It cannot be said that he is full of hope, but at least he is not full of bitterness."

Rachel was sitting on an old dark brown dark-grained sofa, reading in a calm and cold tone, with slight ups and downs in the tone, but could not find too many hidden emotions, just like a God watching with cold eyes The viewing angle is average.

Although Rachel's "myopic woman" does not appear until the second half of the forest, at the same time, the narrative perspective of the whole story is also based on David, which deserves to be the absolute core; but it can be found at the end of the story. , It is the short-sighted woman who really grasps the development trend of the story line.

From the first act of the story, she appeared as a narration, not from the perspective of the storyteller, but from the perspective of God’s view of all living beings. This also means that from the very beginning, she was calculating everything, and then Follow his own pace, attracting David to take the bait step by step.

This kind of perspective of a superior person in control of the overall situation is also the reason why Oggs put the core role above the role of "myopic woman" from the beginning.

Now, Rachel is trying to interpret the narration in her own way-in fact, at this time she has entered the short-sighted woman performance mode.

Calm, introverted, objective, not too emotional, but not cold, more rational.

The first scene has not officially started. Rachel's narration will be recorded in the later stage. Her current demonstration is more to help the actors and the atmosphere of the audience enter the state.

After the narration was over, Rachel paused and cast her gaze at Oggs, "Director, are you sure you have to add the last sentence? I always feel that there is a suspicion of spoiler. The story is too clear. , Did it actually destroy the surprise? Doesn't it match the tone of the movie?"

Oggs took off the headset on his ears and shook his head at Rachel, "No, we need some spoilers. Regarding the ex-wife part, we will not deliberately mention it later, so David and the ex-wife’s Relationships, we need to bury clues for the audience to speculate. Now the spoiler information is still too little for the audience, but they will find it strange, and then slowly dig out more things from the follow-up story. In order to avoid directness To say it for nothing, we need to stuff clues in different places."

Rachel calmed down and thought about it for a moment. "You mean, we all know the big picture now, so we will be particularly sensitive when we see these clues; but if it is an audience ~www.novelhall.com~ they will only confused?"

Oggs smiled at Rachel, expressing affirmation.

Oggs retracted his gaze and was about to announce the start of shooting, but he noticed that Rachel showed more doubts and interrupted Oggs's rhythm again; Oggs did not rush to speak, but instead shot. I lost my sight, and asked patiently, "Are there any questions?"

"Yes." Rachel replied in the affirmative, "Why did his wife leave him?" Rachel pointed to Lan Li, "I know the truth, even a handsome guy can be abandoned, but This has no sense of substitution for the audience. How did he convince the audience that his wife left? He has no beer belly, he has no sloppy appearance, and he does not have the image of a greasy middle-aged man. This is not quite right, he is too much. ..."

"Scholar?" Lan Li smiled and took the topic.

Rachel nodded, "Yes, scholar! He looks like a harmless... big boy, I can't see why his wife left him."
