Chapter 46 The First Scene
November NO.14, eight o'clock in the morning.

The weather is a bit cool today, with a cool breeze blowing. Even if you wear a coat this morning, you will feel a little cold. The crew arrived at the Shanghai Film and Television City early in the morning. On the set, the crew was busy in a noisy and orderly manner. At the same time, there were also other people in the film and television city. There are three crews starting work, basically all anti-Japanese war dramas, and the crew of "Actor" is not alone.

Next to a nanny car, Yang Mu held the storyboard in his hand and said to Huang Wen: "Teacher Huang Wen, just walk down from here later, and then go to Teacher Xiao Yang, and then start saying the lines. We will do this part One mirror to the end."

Huang Wen took the script and listened attentively. Although he knew the script, he didn't know what kind of effect the crew wanted and how to shoot it, so he still needed someone to explain the play to him, such as where to start, where to stop, etc. As for It's up to him to act or something.

"Okay, I understand." Huang Wen nodded and said.

In front of him, there is still a scene being arranged, which is the model of the crew, stacked rails, lighting, props, cameras, etc., and the camera will capture all of these later. This scene is the actor. On the set, the group actors were all real employees of the crew. At this time, they had eager smiles on their faces, and occasionally chatted a few words, which felt quite interesting.

Even though they stay on the set all year round, the number of times they are allowed to enter the country is really very few. This time, Chen An directly captured them as supporting actors, which can be regarded as making full use of them. They are quite interested.

Huang Wen got into the nanny car to get ready, and Yang Mu shouted to everyone: "You guys will perform normally in a moment. The housekeepers should move the boxes and the lights should carry the light tubes, Hu Mang! You are a dog Come over in the next day, when Mr. Huang walks from here, you will pass by him with the slide rail, don't be slow, you know?"

One of the attendants chuckled and nodded to show that he knew, causing everyone to laugh.

Chen An sits in front of the monitor and looks around the screen with his eyes. After a while, there are requirements for what Huang Wen will pass along the road and who he meets. This long shot is for fans to follow the actor to understand the environment. , know what this set is like.

A good long shot can instantly immerse the audience into the plot, and also allow the audience to learn enough information.

Movies are different from TV series, there are details everywhere.

Finally, after more than ten minutes, everything was arranged properly, Yang Mu shouted to Chen An: "Director, everything is arranged, can you see if it works?"

Chen An has been staring at the arrangement, and he has already said what is not working, so at this moment he picked up the walkie-talkie and said, "Okay, let's go and try first."

When filming TV series before, he always came directly because they used video tapes, but this is film!It would be safer to give it a try.

The entire production crew walked twice according to his request, and found some small problems, some were group performances, some were prop placement, and the other point was that the photographer's rhythm was not well grasped, the pace was either fast or slow, and the camera's The steering is not well controlled, which is caused by the lack of running-in, and it is much better after trying it twice.

"Okay, let's take a formal shot, don't try it anymore." Chen An said.

It is also not advisable to try too many times during auditions, as it will tire people out, and it is still necessary to formally shoot people's hearts before they are aroused.

"Okay, come on, everyone, let's officially start! The official shooting, all the actors and actresses cheer up, we are making a movie!!" Yang Mu yelled loudly, causing a burst of laughter at the scene, but everyone returned to the scene after laughing. Arrive at your own location and wait for the boot.

Everything was ready one after another, and after the board was played, the photographer shouted: "Record."

This seemed to be a signal, and Yang Mu hurriedly started counting down loudly.

"three!"

Huang Wen, who was wearing a national era suit in the nanny's car, let out a soft breath. He was so nervous that he could hear his own heartbeat.

It's about to start again.

"two!"

The scenes of the past two years played back in his mind. It was a hell-like day, with no hope and no future. Everyone was criticizing you, saying that you were wrong, and watching himself sinking slowly. Turning into nothing, it's like watching yourself fall into the abyss with nothing to do, that kind of despair is unforgettable.

"one!"

Huang Wen's attention returned to the scene. He took a deep breath and let it out slowly. His mood immediately calmed down, leaving only one deepest obsession.

seize this chance!

"start!"

Huang Wen walked out of the nanny's car, and came to the door after one step. The sun pierced through the shadows and shone on his face. He made an expression that his eyes were hurt by the sun, squinting slightly, one big and the other small Glancing outside, he lowered his head and slowly got down the steps of the nanny's car. Standing on the ground, he stretched lazily. After enjoying himself, he gently put on the gentleman's hat that matched the suit, and then walked slowly Step towards the studio.

The camera followed him, recording his journey and passing scenery along the way.

First, there was an open space, and two group performers wearing the same national era clothes walked past him. They were chatting without even looking at Huang Wen. After walking through this open space, they entered a street full of the atmosphere of the times. , the noise came from far and near, and in front of him was a busy crew.

Busy setters holding boxes, lighting engineers carrying light tubes, on-site directors shouting loudly, directors sitting in front of monitors, and a group of extras wearing national-era clothes sitting around the set.

"Give way."

A field manager carrying slide rails walked in front of him. Huang Wen stepped aside, frowning slightly, obviously displeased, and said, "Be careful."

The boy ignored him, and passed by him with his things on his shoulders. Huang Wen frowned unhappily and turned his head to continue walking.

He passed by a large number of black lampposts leaning on slide rails, crew light stands placed together, prop guns and wooden boxes piled up together, and some other bits and pieces, which fully demonstrated the beauty of the set. Scenes.

Finally, Huang Wen came to the director who was sitting in front of the monitor. He smiled and said, "Director Zhang, when will you be here today?"

As he spoke, he sat down on a blue folding chair, then crossed his legs and looked at the director, shaking his legs comfortably.

The camera slowly turned from his back to the side, recording him and the director on the same scene. The actor playing the director glanced at him lightly, and the scene was frozen.

"Okay, stop."

"Replay."

Chen An watched the replay over there, Huang Wen sat there quietly, motionless, the whole crew was quiet, as if the world had fallen into dead silence, he could feel his own heartbeat nervously, and at the same time began to recall himself in his mind With the performance just now, he suddenly seemed to have returned to the mood he had when he first played a character with lines many years ago, nervous and apprehensive.

In this kind of waiting, the time passed by every minute and every second. In fact, it was only a dozen seconds in total, but he felt that the time was so slow. Finally, he heard Chen An's faint voice on a walkie-talkie next to him: " Alright, get ready for the next shot."

Huang Wen let out a long breath of relief, and the surroundings also started to make noise.

The world is alive again.
