Chapter 1823 1823 Mentor's Guide
Curtis wanted to curse, but he had already stood up, but when he saw everyone in the audience applauding and stood there, he couldn't help laughing. Finally, he shook his head, and he also took the initiative to applaud. Instead, the venue standing next to him was at a loss: When should this end?
Of course, the most innocent ones are Hugo and Kevin. The performance was good, and in the end, the director was left to shout "Card", and the scene could end. But now that I was disrupted like this, it is very likely that the whole scene would have to be re-filmed.
The feeling of this scene just now was very right. The auras of the two people were fully matched together. From the rehearsal to the official shooting, the two people brewed for nearly twenty minutes, and then they fully exerted to the extreme during the shooting. But it was precisely because of the two people's outstanding performance that the applause appeared, which destroyed the completeness of the scene. So, should we be glad that this perfection just now or dislike this perfection? This feeling is really ridiculous.
Finally, Hugo and Kevin could only look at each other helplessly, and both seemed a little at a loss. Obviously, after so many years of filming, they encountered various accidents, and today they actually added a new emergencies.
After the applause was over, Heath was still extremely excited. He widened his eyes and jumped up and down in front of Russell, "Wow, did you see it just now? Did you see it? Hugo's eyes changed, completely changed, it was simply a completely different person! Did you see it?"
Seeing Heath so excited, Russell's words of blame were not easy to say anymore, and Charlize next to him also burst out laughing, "Of course, of course. Remember? We were all on the scene."
Performance is indeed a very wonderful art. It has some basic methods to train, but more often it requires a kind of talent, a kind of understanding and a kind of aura. Only by truly seeing it with your own eyes and experiencing it with your own eyes can you feel the tension and courage of the performance. That powerful aura is enough to shock the soul.
Charlize and Russell also seemed very excited and started talking with Heath.
"Guys," Curtis walked over with a helpless expression, which made the three of them stop talking, "I know you are very excited, believe me, I'm more excited than you. But this is not Broadway, we need to record the moment with a camera."
At this time, Heath also realized his amateur performance just now and apologized to Curtis. Curtis could only smile and turn around and leave. As a result, the three of them stood there, exchanged their sights with each other, and all burst into laughter.
Curtis walked to Hugo and Kevin and said apologetically, "The whole scene might have to be done again just now..." It was mainly because the performance of the two people just finished in one go, and the entire atmosphere was perfect, so he still hoped to start from scratch, but this demanded very high for the two actors, almost requiring them to replicate their performance.
However, before Curtis could explain, Hugo shrugged, "Okay, no problem." Then he looked at Kevin opposite him, and he said indifferently, "If you need it." For actors, filming the same scene over and over again is a basic equipment, and adjusting the status is one of their compulsory courses.
It was so straightforward and neat, but Curtis was a little embarrassed, but he still smiled, "I'm really sorry for the accident just now. Besides that, everything was perfect and really outstanding." After expressing his praise again, Curtis turned around and walked back to the back of the monitor.
Hugo calmed down his smile, pursed his lips gently, and looked at Kevin intently, "It seems that I need to ask you for another favor." His calm speaking style was obviously Ed's feeling.
Kevin raised his eyebrows, took out his ears, and curled his lips, leaving a sentence, "It depends on my mood." Then he turned around and took off his suit and sat back to the back of the desk.
After returning to the filming, the performances of the two actors showed some fine adjustments. Ed stood opposite Jack's desk, leaned on the edge of another desk, and supported his body with his hands, as if concealing the slight trembling of his legs. But in fact, Ed's legs were not visible in the camera. Jack found a stack of chips from the drawer and put them in his palm and flipped them. The leisure and surplus of the entire control situation became more obvious. But in the second half, he began to unconsciously play with the chips, but also leaked the ups and downs in his heart.
These subtle adjustments will not enter the camera most of the time, so they have no impact on the audience. But when you really stand next to the set, you have different ideas, because the performance is a whole, and every part of the performance constitutes a part of the performance. The details that the camera cannot capture can instead make the entire character complete, which also makes the part that is truly recorded by the camera more realistic and moving.
Whether it was Charlize, Russell, Heath, they benefited a lot from watching this scene. Until the filming of this scene was completed and the following two scenes were filmed, they still did not fully recover. The three of them were still concentrating on savoring what they had just felt.
"Russell, Russell Crow! God, the end is your scene. What are you doing when you hide in the stairwell?" The staff were looking for Russell over and over again, but found that Russell was hiding alone in the narrow space under the stairs, just like Quasimodo, which scared the person.
Russell walked out of the small space and shook his head, "I'm looking for a tall feeling." This was the solution that Russell came up with inspiration from Hugo.
In fact, Russell is not tall, he is even about an inch shorter than Hugo, but the character Bud is the strongest big guy in the entire police station in the original novel. Therefore, Russell tried to find the feeling of being a tiger-back and bear-back, hoping to create this kind of rampage from body language such as pace and movement.
Before the crew started filming, Russell tried to live in a narrow apartment to find this feeling, but he always felt that he was lacking in the performance. After watching the showdown between Hugo and Kevin today, Russell had a flash of inspiration and found such a clumsy but effective way.
"Sorry, I forgot the time." Russell walked up quickly, but the scene in his mind was still the scene from the scene just now. Even though more than three hours have passed, it is still vivid.
In fact, it was not just over three hours. In the next few days, Russell had been carefully observing the performances of Hugo and Kevin. Almost every performance could give Russell different inspiration, giving him a new understanding of the performance. Russell felt that the door to a new world had been opened in front of him, and his performance style had improved. He could not wait to show his skills.
However, when he really stood in front of Hugo to perform an opponent, Russell felt confined, as if a man full of strength was wrapped in wool. Not only could he not let go of his hands, but he was even so clumsy that it was unbearable to look at him. The huge gap almost defeated Russell, and even stood in front of the camera a little at a loss. After six consecutive matches, Russell still did not improve at all, which made him feel a strong sense of frustration.
"Curtis, give us five minutes, okay?" After ng again, Hugo said loudly. Curtis naturally had no objection and signaled the entire crew to rest for five minutes.
"I'm sorry, Hugo, I'm really sorry." Russell rubbed his cheeks in annoyance, almost daring to look at Hugo's eyes. In the past few days, he felt like a sponge, constantly absorbing new knowledge. During the performance, he felt free to express himself and his confidence was built up bit by bit. He even felt that "Los Angeles Secret" might be the most important turning point in his acting career. But now... standing in front of Hugo, he is so vulnerable.
Hugo chuckled, "If you really feel sorry, you should look at me now, rather than hiding behind your hands." Hugo's words were a little humorous in their ease, but he blamed Russell without any hesitation, which made Russell quickly raise his head and look at Hugo in front of him with depression, "Russell, you are a very outstanding actor, first of all, you must believe this."
Russell shrugged, not saying anything, but his eyes showed a negative attitude.
Hugo pondered for a while and thought for a while, "I heard from Charlize Heath that you have been discussing acting skills recently? This is a good thing. I always think that acting is a very complicated thing. It is a struggle for an actor alone and a cooperation between actors, but in the end, it still needs to go back to the actors." Hugo's words relaxed a little, but his shoulders were still tense. "I am still very keen to communicate with other actors. This is a very pleasant process."
Hugo kept thinking about Russell's performance over the past few days, including the scene just now. He could feel that Russell was actually trying to learn his and Kevin's performance methods and use the detailed sculpture method to make the role three-dimensional. In fact, this is correct, because when the performance level reaches a certain level, it is impossible to keep going all the way, and details still need to be polished. But the problem is that every actor has his own style. Even with the same details, Hugo and Kevin's performance methods and performance content are very different.
Russell just understood the surface, did not have a deep understanding, and simply wanted to get into details, which made Russell's own style blurred. In fact, at the peak of his acting skills, Russell was a bold and elegant performance style, but the point is that Russell's overall style is relatively outward. So, if Russell wants to be like Hugo or Kevin, then he chose the wrong direction.
