The "detachment" shooting is finally on the right track. Strictly speaking, it can't be regarded as the right track, it can only be said that it has officially entered the shooting stage, because Tony's working style can be said to be erratic, and they never know what the "right track" is.

Sometimes Tony is very rigorous. He puts forward strict requirements on light, angle, camera and lines-especially lines. He doesn't like any form of free creation. He must strictly follow the lines of the script, even the same vocabulary. Meaning replacement, this is also not allowed. For every scene, we are nitpicking and striving for perfection.

But sometimes, he is very sloppy, half of the filming, he suddenly stops, then overturns the filming plan, and starts over; there is no requirement for the actor’s performance style and method, he even gives the actor enough space, Let them perform interpretations in different performances, and then choose the most suitable one.

Everyone in the crew is trying to adapt to Tony's work style, and everyone is running in a stumbling block, which makes the shooting speed always unable to improve.

This kind of filming experience is completely new to Renly. He has never met such a director. Of course, his own filming experience is very limited; but at the same time he is also excited because Tony is constantly challenging his bottom line. , His ability and his understanding.

When shooting the first scene on the first day, Lan Li shot five times in the end, not because of a mistake, but because the mood during the performance was always fine-tuned, always looking for the most suitable rhythm and pattern, hoping to be able to To achieve the effect Tony desires. It's hard to imagine that a cutscene scene was filmed four times, and it was still a scene without any lines, any conflicts, or any hot spots.

This shooting method can be simply called: burning film.

But obviously, Tony doesn’t care about wasting film. What he wants is perfection. He keeps communicating and reviewing himself again and again, not for the pursuit of perfection, nor for the search for the right, but just for the search. The most suitable.

For the producer, this may be a disaster; but for Lan Li, it is good news. With such a simple first scene, Lan Li kept reworking, polishing his performance little by little, pushing her performance limit little by little.

As a director, Tony set up the stage, and then gave Lan Li unlimited freedom, allowing him to play heartily, but also constantly deliberating, putting forward different requirements, making different attempts, and truly letting Lan Li experience it. The pleasure of the fancy performance shows all the 18 martial arts and 36 changes that I have learned and seen.

This graduation exam has truly become a stage for Lan Li to play his recklessly.

However, this method of shooting has caused the crew to remain in an unstable state. Sometimes the shooting progress is smooth and smooth. You can shoot seven to eight sets of scenes in one day, but sometimes it stumbles and gets blocked everywhere, and you may not finish shooting one set in three days. Drama.

When the intention to cooperate was confirmed, Tony said that the filming cycle of this work should be about one month. But now it seems that it is obviously an unreliable joke. It's not that the shooting cycle will be longer or shorter, but Tony himself doesn't know when he will be able to finish. This is fast, slow, and vacillating. The shooting rhythm, it is estimated that no one can say whether all shooting can be finished within one month.

In the past few days, the crew has been on the bar. A bus scene was filmed for three days, and there was still no progress. The work of the entire crew was at a standstill. Everyone in the crew was in a state of grumpy. The entire crew was like an unstable gunpowder keg. Even they themselves don't know when it will explode.

The filming difficulty of this scene was originally "on", which can almost be said to be the most difficult scene since the start of the crew. The content is the first encounter between Henry and Erica.

That night, Henry fell into a state of insomnia and could not fall asleep, so he left the house, strolled outside for a while, and when he returned home again, he received a call from the hospital saying that he was suffering from Alzheimer’s disease. My grandfather once again put himself in the bathroom and refused to come out. The nurse at the hospital was helpless, so he called Henry and asked him to go to the hospital for treatment.

This is not the first time it has happened.

Henry's mother committed suicide by taking medicine in the bathroom at home. Henry, who was only seven years old, was the first to discover his mother's body. Then Henry's grandfather also saw his daughter's death with his own eyes. After that, his grandfather took the fault on himself. He always believed that his daughter's death was his fault. After suffering from Alzheimer's disease, he still missed it. I often locked myself in the bathroom, and then called my daughter's name, trying to save everything before the daughter committed suicide.

This situation is extremely tricky. Grandpa didn't listen to other people at all. Even Henry had to be patient and patient, and spend a lot of effort to persuade his grandfather out little by little.

It is precisely because of this that Henry asked the hospital to remove the lock of the bathroom door to avoid such a situation. But obviously, the nurses in the hospital didn't care at all and never implemented it; and every time a situation occurred, they were irresponsible and directly called Henry over to deal with it. Tonight, it's the same again.

Henry tossed for a long time, finally coaxing his grandfather out and coaxing him to bed. Afterwards, Henry saw the caregiver with sleepy eyes and doing nothing. His anger finally broke out. He vented all his emotions to the caregiver and threatened him severely before turning to leave.

In fact, Henry was not hard-hearted. He noticed the caregiver's embarrassment and embarrassment. He also noticed the caregiver's fragility and timidity, just like a stray dog ​​shivering in a rainstorm. Under the weight of life, she has no power to fight back. , Even without any extra attacks, she was already scarred and exhausted. However, he still poured out his anger reluctantly, and kept seeing the tears of fear in the opponent's eyes, and then he stopped and walked away.

It was a bumpy night, suffering from the pain of insomnia, which put his physical strength and energy with great tests; the terrible condition of his grandfather made him worry, that kind of gloomy and decadent breath that is infinitely close to death. It was overflowing little by little; while the grandfather's obsession with his mother in his confusion, once again awakened the nightmare in his mind, the nightmare of the mother lying naked in the bathroom.

That day was like drowning. The pain and torture of struggling between the surface of the water, floating and sinking, was deeply rooted in the corners of the soul, and it was never really healed. The long torture has left the soul broken. , Almost unsustainable, every day seems to be lingering. Alive, but never really alive.

On the bus going home, Henry collapsed, bursting into tears and unable to control himself, all the sadness, bitterness and pain burst out. It was in this situation that he met Erica.

In this scene, Henry sees Erica in the back seat of the bus, serving a drunk alcoholic. After the service was over, the drunkard was so dazed and unresponsive, Erica loudly asked for her reward, only to get a slap in the face. Erica stood up wisely, turned around and saw Henry whose face was covered with tears, and those sad eyes with pity and sympathy. As a result, Erica found a new prey, she decided to follow Henry, and then waited for the opportunity to find the opportunity to earn the first payment tonight.

The drama itself is not small, about two minutes before and after; moreover, this is not only Erica's debut, but also Henry's first collapse.

According to Lan Li's conception, Henry's emotions are displayed layer by layer, side by side, especially when facing three female characters, the sense of hierarchy and depth presents the entire role three-dimensionally. Therefore, this scene is even more important. It can be regarded as the first episode of acting outburst since the filming of "Transcendence".

Not only that, Tony's requirements for this scene are also unique. He is looking for a more suitable and mature lens that shows the relationship between Erica and Henry. His thinking is not very clear, and he is always swaying. indefinite.

For a while, he hopes to take a panoramic shot inside the bus and capture the relationship between Henry and Erica from an all-round perspective; for a while ~www.novelhall.com~ he hopes to capture the two characters in close-up The actor’s expression details, but the scenes of Erica’s service are really too large. At the same time, Sammy is still a minor, and some scenes cannot be filmed directly. After a while, he ran out of the bus and tried to record the performance from an indirect perspective. Emotions.

For two full days, Tony had been tossing about it all the time. The actor hadn't had time to play. Tony himself rejected the semi-finished product and then started over. This made the whole crew unable to calm down and move forward, and had not had time to obtain Progress, then return to the original place, back to the "zero point".

More importantly, this bus scene took place at night. Tony insisted on real-time and on-site shooting. Therefore, the crew had to work with day and night turned upside down. The busy work in the middle of the night was already violent. There is no effect, it is really frustrating, and the state of the whole crew is not very good.

After entering the third day, Tony finally found some state, and the filming was able to continue intermittently. However, there was a major problem with Lan Li’s performance state, and he was unable to meet Tony’s performance requirements, or Tony’s attitude towards Lan. The rhythm and state of Li's performance have never been satisfactory.
