my time as a director

Duan Yihong's face darkened again, "Take it!"

"Okay, click!"

After filming a complete section, Li Qian immediately called a stop, and called the three of them over, and replayed the previous section on the monitor, talking while playing.

"It's basically the same question, and it doesn't get into the characters."

Li Qian looked at the three of them and shook his head, "Acting is not limited to a certain scene, you are playing a person, not just a person doing a certain thing, when and what action occurs, what changes.

Let me talk about Zhang Yi first, you are acting with confidence in shooting targets, but you have not noticed a prerequisite. The prototype of Zhang Xiaofang’s character is Zhang Taofang. No attention to character traits.

Old Duan is a little bit better, the company commander is set as a cold-faced tiger, but when facing two special soldiers, Chen Kun and Zhang Yi, his expressions became too obvious, such a character is usually not good at expressions Management is about to face a big battle, so there shouldn't be a big change in expression in a short period of time at this time. "

Duan Yihong hesitated for a while before explaining, "Director Li, I don't have many roles as a character, but I am also one of the core characters in this plot. I am afraid that the character will be too flat."

Li Qian said to Duan Yihong and Zhang Yi, "You two can be regarded as the two most important supporting roles in the plot of Resisting Rice and Aiding Korea, but this scene itself does not have many roles, so it is impossible to give too much attention to the two supporting roles. role.

Zhang Yi's role is a superhero who kills more than 200 American devils in a month. He is a special type, and the commander of the third company will not put too much emphasis on performance, because this is the epitome of all volunteer army grassroots commanders and fighters. a general type. "

"Then should I be more "ordinary"?" Duan Yihong said, the character is not good, he has no objection, he just wants to play this role well.

"That's not necessary."

Li Qian shook his head and said with a smile, "Although you are just a microcosm of the grassroots commanders and fighters of the volunteer army, there are thousands of such people, but you and the people you represent are also heroes, and everyone is a hero. Just hold on to a degree.”

A role with fewer roles is more difficult to act. Not enough roles mean that there is no room for development, and there is not even time for a complete character transformation process.

Of course, this is to get rid of some special occupations.

In the scene of resisting rice and aiding the Korean War, the protagonist is still the protagonist. These two important supporting roles can only be expressed from the scenes where they appear together with the protagonist, or from the details.

For example, in Li Qian's script, Duan Yihong would not give up any of the wounded on the battlefield, even if the intestines were blown out, he would order Chen Kun to explode the seriously wounded who were dying.

But in the tragic battle of Songgufeng, before Duan Yihong died, he did not allow Chen Kun to waste precious time and medicine on his own dying person, and ordered him to rescue other wounded with his last breath.

Two very simple shots, one for comparison, will not take up additional space, and it is perfectly integrated with the protagonist's plot.

After talking about the scene, we continued to shoot.

In fact, half of this scene is a real historical event.

Zhang Taofang's family has a shotgun handed down by his grandfather. He has shot it before joining the army, and he also used a [-]-cap during recruit training. He is very accurate when he is born with long-sightedness.

Therefore, when he appeared on the stage, he was full of confidence in the script. After all, he was a young man in his early twenties, and he was very good at marksmanship.

It is also a fact that all three shots missed the target. At that time, Zhang Taofang’s regiment specially organized a whole regiment shooting competition in order to strengthen the training of recruits and activate the atmosphere. Zhang Taofang took up the gun confidently and fired three shots in a row, but all of them missed the target. He was sent to the cooking class by the company commander.

Here, Li Qian changed to go to the health team, which is reasonable. The health team is now an old man who is the leading actor, so he definitely needs someone to help.

The scene where Zhang Yi appeared was filmed for a long time, from nine o'clock in the morning to nearly four o'clock in the afternoon.

Fragmented plots, in addition to relying on the connection between the plots and editing skills, also have higher requirements for the quality of each plot.

It's even so high that every short episode of the plot can be shown to the audience separately, and they can almost understand the cause and effect.

For example, just a scene where a husband and wife quarrels has no cause and effect, but the audience must understand from the quarrel process whether it is the first quarrel or a frequent quarrel, or it is commonplace.

How is the relationship between the husband and wife and how do they feel about each other? Is it because of a major incident that they have a conflict, or the two parties have long disliked each other and quarreled over a trivial matter.

He still loves her, and she still loves him.

Or he loves her, she doesn't love her.

Or maybe he doesn't love her, but she still loves him.

Or they don't love each other anymore.

And there is a degree of love and dislike, how much you love, how much you don't love if you don't love, and even resentment and disgust.

In fact, many film and television dramas come out with a single plot. Viewers who haven’t watched the original drama probably don’t know what it’s about, and don’t know the status and relationship of the characters.

"Rejuvenation" requires any single plot to be taken out, and the background, character status and relationship, events, cause and effect can be understood clearly.

Because there is no context to carry on, it not only tests the thinking of the audience, but also tests the content of each plot.

For example, in the paragraph just now, after the hero was rescued in the previous scene, he was found to be able to bandage a little first aid, and the company commander left him behind, and then the scene turned to them training at the station.

It only said to keep the male lead, but didn't mention how to arrange it. In the next scene, Zhang Yi went to the health team to follow the male lead.

There is a little bit of jumping, I hope the audience can see it clearly at a glance when watching it, and it will not be strange.

The scene was filmed at four o'clock, and it was dark and late in winter, so there was only one daytime scene in the resident, and then came the night scene.

"Scene 36, one shot at a time!"

"start!"

This was a match between Chen Kun and Zhang Yi at night. Chen Kun got on the kang early when he got older, while Zhang Yi was still sitting on the kang, holding a gun and worrying.

Even though his marksmanship was outstanding, he missed an empty target, which was beyond his comprehension.

Chen Kun stuck out his head from the bed and asked in a low voice, "Are you still asleep?"

"Humph!"

The stubborn Zhang Yi ignored him. He missed the target with three shots today, which is already shameful enough. The most important thing is that even this old man hit the target with a bullet, so he was ashamed to throw it to his grandma's house.

Chen Kun, who was only five years old in mental age, didn't dare to say anything, so he shrank back into the bed and took a deep breath.

it's too cold.

The room was quiet for a while, and suddenly Zhang Yi yelled excitedly.

"I understand!"

scare!

Chen Kun was startled, and quickly asked, "What's wrong with you."

"I understand!"

Zhang Yi suddenly jumped down, muttering excitedly and annoyedly, "I used to use [-] big guns with small caliber bullets and low recoil. This gun has larger caliber bullets, greater power and greater recoil. That's why I missed the target!"

"The recoil is so strong that I can barely hold it steady." Chen Kun said in agreement.

"cut!"

Zhang Yi smiled contemptuously, and then said excitedly, "Tomorrow I will go to the company commander and fight again!"
