Chapter 603 Learning
Huang Bo stood on the pedestrian bridge at Jianguomen Gate, smiling and looking at the endless stream of vehicles on the street.
His expression was very complicated, with both hope and confusion.
In this metropolis, individuals are so small that they are prone to lose their direction of life and follow the trend.
"Click!"
The director not far away shouted at Huang Bo. The cars were coming and going around him, and the noise was very loud, and if he didn't shout, he couldn't hear anything. Huang Bo ran towards the director.
"Guiding, how about this time?" Huang Bo asked.
"It's okay, we are like this, you have a feeling, but what's the point? You have to bring memories with you. You think of the excitement when you came out of your hometown." Guan Shu gestured, "Of course, it's not that you are really excited, but that you are excited about memories. Do you understand?"
"I'm excited about memories? Then I'm happier?" Huang Bo thought.
"What I said may be a bit abstract. Let's not worry about being excited or not, and sort out the plot." Guan Shu said patiently, "You are working in the capital and realize that life is not easy, but you are still determined to continue to stay in the capital. At this time, when you think about the mood you had just left your hometown, you will show this emotion."
"I understand, give me a few minutes to prepare." Huang Bo asked.
"Five minutes, the sun is about to set, the light is right now, and it will be dark later." Guan Shu agreed.
Huang Bo stood aside, brewing emotions.
The film he starred in is almost finished. The plot is very simple. It tells the story of two foreigners coming to Beijing to work and becoming minibus drivers. They are the kind of black cars without an operating license.
This industry is fierce in competition, and often has conflicts with other minibuses in order to attract customers, which eventually turns into violent conflicts.
The fellow countrymen who came with Huang Bo couldn't stand it and returned to their hometown. Huang Bo still insisted in the capital.
In the past, Huang Bo played supporting roles in TV dramas, but he didn't feel pressured, and he felt that acting was just that.
One is that the role he plays is simple and not important. As long as it is not a major mistake, it will basically be passed. The TV series does not require high acting skills on the actors.
Besides, he didn't meet a serious director.
Guan Kuo is a good-natured person and has the patience to tell the actors about the show, but he likes to be serious when filming. The actors' performances must be in place and they cannot be just a little bit done.
This drama invests only one million yuan, and it is a small production, but Guanbu does not relax because of this.
Huang Bo, the starring actor, felt the pressure.
Fortunately, this character is somewhat similar to his life experience. They are all outsiders who work hard in the capital. He can integrate into the role, which is considered a true performance.
But when he needed to express his complex emotions in his heart, he seemed unable to do so.
It’s not that he doesn’t understand, but that he doesn’t grasp the standards well and often uses too much force.
Huang Bo has not received systematic performance training. Guan Ju graduated from the Film Academy's Director Department and often speaks professional vocabulary that Huang Bo cannot understand.
At the beginning, the two had difficulty communicating, but now it is much better. Guan Wu will express his requirements in a straightforward way.
Under Guan Wu's guidance, Huang Bo gradually came into contact with the threshold of performance and felt that this was a very profound science, not as simple as posing in front of the camera.
He developed a strong interest in performance.
Huang Bo didn't understand any performance theory. He recalled his experience of leaving home and singing in the south. He was really excited at that time. He was pursuing his ideals.
Looking back now, there is only a faint feeling, no excitement, no loss, just peace.
Thinking of this, he seemed to have grasped something.
Huang Bo made a gesture to Guan Wu, stood in his position, and the camera started working.
He walked casually to the pedestrian overpass, stood there, looking at the endless flow of vehicles, and there was no sadness or joy on his face, and then he smiled.
He didn't smile clearly, and seemed to have thought of something funny.
Guan Wu looked at this smile through the camera and felt a little remembrance and helplessness from it. Although it was still a little far from his request, it was already OK.
He knew that it was not easy for Huang Bo to do this level.
This drama will be completed in a few days. There is no one paying attention to such a low-cost TV movie and can only be broadcast on the movie channel, which has little influence.
This is the case in the domestic film market at present, and it is good that he can get investment.
Domestic directors are showing a polarization trend. Famous directors can get tens of millions of investment, and it is difficult for young directors to make movies worth millions of dollars.
Many people have transformed into filming TV series and some have filmed commercials, so they can make money quickly.
He can only get a 50,000 yuan salary when filming this movie, and he can get more than 150,000 yuan for a TV series. At the same time, it is better to go to film a TV series.
He heard that Good Dream Company has launched an assistance fund to provide young directors with opportunities to make films.
This is a good thing, but there are too many monks and too little porridge, so there is no big chance.
The crew finished work, and several people walked towards the other side of the city with their backs facing the sunset.
There were less than twenty people in the entire crew, and as the filming approached, the dispersion was almost gone, with only a few of them left.
"Huang Bo, I think you should learn performances. It's too hard to explore some things yourself. The advantage of systematic learning is to understand where you are lacking." Guan Shu suggested, "If you don't have time, you can go to a further study class, which is more free."
Guan Kui is not looking down on actors who are not from professional backgrounds, but he just thinks that Huang Bo has more room for development.
He is a professional and may be a bit rigid in teaching in the film school, but it is of great help to the actors.
The process of learning is also a process of discovering oneself.
For example, Huang Bo is not good at inner dramas, and he can make up for his own shortcomings by learning performance skills.
"I'd better take the exam for a regular exam. Does the Film Academy accept me like this?" Huang Bo joked.
"Everyone in the film school is accepted, it depends on whether you have the perseverance to take the exam." Guan Shu said.
This cannot be wrong. Lin Xiaoling took the exam for two years and Jia Zhangke took the exam for three years. Many people took the exam several times before entering the film academy. This requires perseverance and perseverance.
Huang Bo fell into thinking, and he felt that his acting skills were insufficient.
Every day when I go back, I think about how to act, but no one has been guiding him. It’s like a wall that can’t be understood clearly.
Maybe I really want to go to the film school.
At this time, Huang Bo's cell phone rang.
The caller was his agent, who did not have an independent agent, and the agent was also in charge of other actors.
"Huang Bo, the company is preparing to film a big-produced TV series and want to remake "The Legend of the White Snake". If you have time to come to the company, this is a good opportunity." The agent reminded.
Good Dream Company has limited resources and competition is inevitable. After all, everyone wants to play an important role.
Especially the big productions will be broadcast on major satellite TV stations, which can leave a deep impression on the audience.
