Hill and the young actors of "Peter Pan" sat on the steps in front of the manor, and the projection stone in front of them was filming from various angles.
Now "Peter Pan" has been filming for a week, and the running-in has basically been completed. The young actors who play Wendy and her brother are all little nobles, and the actor who plays Peter Pan is the son of a pirate. The children of Wudao are all played by ordinary children.
Among them, the civilian children were found by the Bird of Dawn Charity Organization, and most of them were orphans. Hill thought about sending them to a school in the Demon Realm after the filming was finished, so that they could receive education with the demon children, and they could stay in the Demon Realm directly after graduating from school. After hearing about their future arrangements, those human civilian children were very happy about it, and they worked harder to recite their lines. The children of the nobles were compared for a while, but they also worked hard, forming a good cycle for a while.
As a result, these commoner children seduced the noble children into wanting to go to the demon school. Hill naturally welcomed this with both hands, but the choice still rests with their parents. At this stage, there are a lot of interests involved.
Children are playful by nature, and Hill used a more guided way to guide them to show their characters. They all acted very well, and Hill felt that most adults were crushed. After spending a week with these children, Hill felt that his state of mind had changed.
This day was the break time for the crew, Hill arranged a magazine interview, and the young actors excitedly talked about their thoughts to the reporter.
"It's really fun to make a movie! But the lines are so hard to remember. Fortunately, His Majesty the Demon King said that we can play freely and reasonably, and he also encouraged us to think of lines by ourselves. I think this is amazing!"
"The meals during filming were really delicious. What I look forward to most every day is to eat delicious food! I feel that I have gained a lot of weight. Soon after, the Lord Demon King ordered me to keep my weight. He said that if I continue to eat, I will lose weight." I have to change the actor, this actor looks different before and after... so sad. But Lord Demon King said that he can give me a voucher for a restaurant in the Demon Realm, and I can eat there for free for a month after filming the movie! Yay!"
"Master Demon King is really cool, I hope to have such a father."
"I feel like I'm in a dream, it's amazing! I'm going to be an actor! Will I be liked by a lot of people? Will they like me like Captain Jack and Tony?"
"My drama is more than yours, and they will like me more!"
"hateful!"
Seeing that the two young actors were about to fight, Hill pulled them away dumbfounded. He has been here this week. The majesty of the devil is of no use to children. But this feeling is also quite good, and Hill has not experienced it for a long time.
—Of course, this is also the result of his deliberate actions. If he really shows his arrogance to these children, he will scare them quite badly.
Next is some behind-the-scenes photos. Hill posed for a few photos and used them in the magazine first. This movie is very full of tidbits, the children are too noisy, the result of this release nature is that the collective acting skills of the whole movie have reached an extremely high level.
The little heroine Wendy said excitedly in front of her aunt: "My dream is to write a trilogy of novels to describe my adventures!"
Aunt: "How can you have any adventures?"
Wendy said with an even more excited expression: "Not yet, but it will definitely be very exciting in the future!"
The aunt frowned and said, "Child, writing a novel is not a very glorious thing. Bards are all fallen nobles, especially I am worried that it will be difficult for you to find a marriage partner.
Wendy took a step back, "Married?" Her expression was startled and sad.
Wendy is the eldest daughter of a small nobleman. She has two younger brothers. She likes all kinds of adventure stories, pirates and fencing, and she has a good level herself. At the beginning, Hill shot a lot of films that showed her character and background, and planned to edit them carefully in the future to control the rhythm.
Then, of course, innocent noble girls who yearn for the outside world will of course be suppressed by traditional concepts.
"Stop." Hill snapped his fingers to stop the projection stones revolving around them, "Jane, what's the matter with your expression?"
Jane was the name of the young actress who played Wendy, and she came from a middle-class aristocratic family in Mülheim.
"Sorry, sir." Jane held up her skirt and curtseyed. "I just thought that I will also need to get married in the future, and I will live my life so plainly, so I feel a little sad."
"That's it." Hill nodded, and at the same time, there was a little more understanding in his heart. The background of "Peter Pan" was naturally changed by Hill to this period. Girls in this period must know more about marriage and marriage than girls in the original Victorian story background, so in theory, it is normal for Wendy to show that expression of. "You did a good job. This part is over. Let's take a break and continue filming the next part." Hill clapped his hands and said.
The scene manager Skeleton over there brought juice and some drinks at the right time, and the young actors went over happily to grab them. The adult actors breathed a sigh of relief, they were actually somewhat envious of these children. They were under a lot of pressure during the filming, and they were afraid of saying or doing something wrong, while the children played and frolicked relaxedly, it's better to be children. they thought. Then I subconsciously thought that I should spend more time with my children when I have time.
After dinner, the little actors surrounded the lich Alighieri and asked him to tell them stories. In fact, it was Hill who encouraged them to go there at the beginning. Lich Alighieri was forced to "this is my king's order", so he suppressed his irritability and tried his best to tell stories to the children. As a result, after a while, he unexpectedly Began to actively search for interesting stories in memory.
I have to say that the children's appeal is really great.
When their nature and imagination have not been stifled, children have a kind of vigorous vitality at the beginning of life.
"In the end the prince and princess lived happily together. Well, the story is over, you should get your lines right, children." The Lich Alighieri swung his five fingers and cut off the light linked on his fingers. He was telling the story before In the story, I will use some illusion spells, use light and shadow to construct the background, and then use magic thread to weave the characters and connect them with five fingers, and manipulate the characters to make actions like a puppet show. The children really love this. up.
"Okay, Mr. Alighieri." The children said one after another.
Then they began to match the lines under the supervision of Alighieri, exploring the psychological activities of the characters.
"From tomorrow onwards, you will be disciplined by your aunt. You have grown up."
Jane, who played the heroine Wendy, saw the words 'father' in the script and couldn't help complaining: "This is really too bad, I don't want to grow up at all."
"Me neither," said another child.
"Growing up is so troublesome, and I don't want to grow up either."
"It's still the best when I was a child."
Only a commoner child said weakly: "I want to grow up..."
Everyone immediately looked at him, the "traitor".
"Why do you want to grow up?" Lich Ali Gaili asked.
The commoner child was a little scared in front of everyone's eyes, but finally said bravely: "Because I will have strength when I grow up, and I can help my father with some work, and I won't make him so hard."
After he finished speaking, many children showed hesitant expressions.
"I know I should grow up, but..."
"When you grow up, you have to do things you don't want to do."
"But my mother raised me so hard, so I should do something for her too..."
"It seems that I should do it, but why are there so many things that I should do but don't want to do? Why aren't the things I want to do the things I should do?"
"If I was born to do something I don't want to do, why was I born?"
The children's thoughts are direct and innocent. They sit together and discuss their thoughts with each other with some childish words and expressions, but the content of their discussions is not childish at all, and it can even be said to have a certain depth .
Hill was flipping through the magazine while listening to their conversation.
The issue they discussed can actually be said to be a core issue of "Peter Pan".
They quarreled endlessly, and Hill closed the book together and said with a smile: "Come and line up, let's talk about your wishes one by one."
Immediately the children began to tell happily:
"I want to be a great pirate! Like Captain Rhodes!" But he didn't know what Captain Rhodes had gone through.
"I want to join the army to gain military merit and title, and become a nobleman from a commoner." But he didn't know that the nobles who were promoted from commoners also belonged to the bottom of the nobility. In the past, they would even be deprived of their property at will, and would never be able to enter the formal social circle.
"My wish is to be able to fly! To become a great magician!" He didn't know that magicians are only one in a hundred, and there are very few who can really climb to a respectable position.
"I want to become someone like Aoshixiejun!" Uh... no comment.
"I want to be a dragon!"
"I want to be a death knight!"
"I want to have a lot of money!"
…
Talking about their dreams, these children can't stop talking.
Hill finished listening with a smile, then opened the script and read: "Dad is a very courageous man."
Immediately after hearing this line, Jane said Wendy's next line: "Dad? Have courage?"
Hill continued to read Wendy's mother's lines: "Children, there are many kinds of courage in this world, and thinking about the family is one. Dad never took a sword or used a gun, but he sacrificed for this family. , put aside many dreams."
Another little actor read out his lines: "Mom, where is he?"
"It's all in the drawer, and he won't take it out until the dead of night to read it. But it's not so easy to give up the dream. He did it, so he is very brave." Hill closed the script and looked at them with a smile: " So, read those lines again, do you understand something?"
Everyone lowered their heads and thought hard for a while, and after a while, Jane said with red eyes: "My father and mother are so great, but, but, but do I have to give up my wish... It is wrong not to want to be a great person … "
In the movie, Peter Pan told Wendy to forget them, forget everything, and go to Neverland with me, where you will never grow up. The temptation of never growing up and always being happy prompted Wendy and her brothers and Peter Pan to learn to fly and go to Neverland together. But after a series of adventures, Wendy chose to leave Peter Pan, she chose to leave the fantasy Neverland, chose to return to the real world, chose her parents, and chose to marry and have children according to the traditional life trajectory.
This is a fairy tale, but it is also a real story.
The young actors have read the entire script, and what they like most are the adventures in Neverland, those dreamy landscapes, those interesting magical creatures, and the wits and bravery with the pirates... and they don't like it the least. Of course it is the ending, Wendy left Peter Pan, and took all the boys around Peter Pan away, and finally Peter Pan returned to Neverland alone, but according to the setting, "As long as you can feel true happiness, You can learn to fly", he can still fly, which shows that he is still happy.
Now that they have entered tonight's discussion, they undoubtedly have a deeper understanding of this ending.
