Ten years of film queen, finally became a top star
Chapter 24: Escape from the Ravine
In addition to the question of understanding the role, Yu Jiang also told him some ways to approach the role through the commonalities between himself and the character, which might help him better integrate with the character.
After staying up all night, Ran Feng finally sorted out his understanding of Mu Yuanming's character based on the script.
The next day, he still sat next to Director Li and observed. After the guidance of the "famous teacher", he was much better than yesterday.
Today's filming content is very simple. It mainly involves Chai Yujun talking to Mu Lingji about things outside, and Mu Lingji taking Chai Yujun to play in the mountains.
This kind of play was not difficult for both of them. In comparison, Tang Zixu had a heavier task, as he had to narrate his own suffering in a plain tone, and it was difficult to strike the right balance.
While filming during the day, Yu Jiang had to take time out at night to help Ran Feng get into character, and this went on for seven days in a row.
Fortunately, Yu Jiang’s efforts were not in vain. Ran Feng had obviously been gradually getting closer to Mu Yuanming in the past two days, and it was time for him to start.
Except for Ran Feng's scenes, Tang Zixu has finished all his scenes in this scene. If all goes well, he can leave this mountain valley after three more days of shooting.
Ran Feng will start filming his scenes tomorrow. Since his first filming experience was not very good, he is a little nervous now.
Yu Jiang, his "master", also helped him to calm down, because he was not a professional actor in the first place, and he would have been even less able to act if he was any more nervous.
Director Li's arrangement is to start with the simpler parts first. Tomorrow's scene is Mu Yuanming's fight with Chai Yujun, who has recovered from his injury.
This scene was also quite simple for Ran Feng. After watching Yu Jiang and Tang Zixu filming the love scene for such a long time, he had already started to feel resentment towards Mu Yuanming.
There is no problem with the fighting scenes. He practiced very seriously during the training camp. He had the most classes with Tang Zixu, so they have some tacit understanding.
In order to ease Ran Feng's nervousness, Yu Jiang dragged a chair from the room to the corridor, and the two chatted there for a long time.
This kind of psychological tension made it impossible to talk about so many professional topics. Yu Jiang told him about his filming experience and he also talked about his hard work overseas.
In the past, Yu Jiang always thought that as long as traffic stars were good-looking and packaged by the company, they could easily attract some fans and make money.
After listening to Ran Feng's story today, she realized that there are many necessary steps before becoming a popular star. Just the days of being a trainee alone overseas were already gloomy and colorless.
Yu Jiang frowned and said, "You have a lot of life experience, so how can you not be able to relate?"
Ran Feng didn't expect that during the conversation, she would turn the topic back to performance.
The next day, Li Hanmo started to worry as soon as he arrived at the set. He didn't know how Ran Feng, the difficult person in the crew and the investor's darling, would perform today.
The set-up here was finished, and the styling of the three actors over there was also completed.
Yu Jiang doesn't have many parts in this scene. It mainly involves the two male protagonists fighting with swords, and she comes on stage at the end to use force to stop the fight.
When the filming officially started, what Li Hanmo didn't expect was that Ran Feng's performance was actually quite good.
Although it was not shot in one take, this is a fight scene, so it is inevitable that there are some bumps and discord in the moves, but Mu Yuanming's overall emotion is fine.
Yu Jiang was beside him, drinking water and said proudly: "How is it? I told him about it. It seems to have some effect, right?"
"It's so effective!" Li Hanmo said excitedly, suppressing his voice, "I have to give you a raise for this!"
Yu Jiang smacked his lips and said, "What a pity. It's a bit difficult to have all the original voices in this play. Junior Brother will probably have to do the dubbing."
Most movies are dubbed by the actors themselves in post-production even if the dubbing is not done live. Ran Feng had just learned how to perform, and there were still some flaws in his lines.
It took a long time to watch them fight before Yu Jiang came on stage. Her fight was much easier. She just formed seals and cast spells, and the rest depended on special effects.
Under Yu Jiang's instructions, Li Hanmo encouraged Ran Feng with a few words, hoping that he would perform so well in the future.
Ran Feng lived up to expectations and his performance in the past two days was good. He also performed steadily in Mu Yuanming's first appearance in the afternoon. In this scene, Chai Yujun just served as a background board.
At the same time, this was also Tang Zixu’s last scene in the mountain village. After changing his costume, he was about to prepare to go back.
The next schedule is to go home and rest for a day, and then go to the film and television city to shoot the remaining scenes.
The original estimated shooting time was five months, but because the investor invested a lot of money to get Ran Feng to join, the group had some extra time to be divided into shooting groups A and B.
In the mountain valley, only Yu Jiang and Ran Feng are left to go to work every day. As the second male lead, he doesn't have that many roles, and combined with the scenes with Yu Jiang, three or four days is enough.
Five days later, Ran Feng also left. He also had a day of rest before going to shoot scenes at the film and television city.
Tang Zixu's rest was really a day of good rest at home, just eating, drinking and sleeping.
During Ran Feng's rest day, he accepted an interview in the morning, went to the studio to shoot a magazine cover in the afternoon, and immediately caught a plane to the film and television city in the evening.
Everyone left, and only Brother Yu Jiang was left on the Shangougou Studios, working on these few scenes with Li Hanmo every day.
The rest of her scenes are after Chai Yujun proclaimed himself king, and she stayed in the sect with her fellow apprentice who did not fight with him.
There aren’t any big scenes, but mostly loneliness, hesitation, and repeated thoughts about whether one’s decision is the right one.
When filming, I am not afraid of emotional conflicts or too many lines. I am just afraid of scenes like this that only have a few words but still need to convey emotions to the audience.
Fortunately, Yu Jiang is an experienced professional actor. These scenes require careful consideration, but she also controls them very well.
It was very comfortable to cooperate with Yu Jiang. Li Hanmo's working state in the past few days was better than in the previous half month, and he smiled more often on the set than before.
Everyone was very excited when we finally escaped from the mountains. Although it was all work, it was also very annoying to work in such a place.
After all the scenes in the ravine were finished, all the staff had three days off, and the staff of Photography Group B took a week off.
At the Beijing airport, Gong Jianan was waiting with a bouquet of flowers in her arms.
This was the first time she didn't join the group. Although she was worried, she also knew that Yu Jiang didn't like to contact the outside world in the group, so except for her calls, he didn't dare to contact her actively.
Finally she's back from the group, and she's determined to do some ceremony.
Yu Jiang, who was picked up at the airport, was also very surprised. He held the bouquet of lavender tulips and gave Gong Jianan a big hug.
She thought she would rest at home for these three days as usual, but unexpectedly, Gong Jianan actually took up her vacation time.
Although her work efficiency is not as good as Ran Feng's, being a guest on a variety show and being interviewed by a website are enough for her to handle!
