David put his hands on his waist, and an uncontrollable irritability and helplessness stirred in his chest.
Generally speaking, in order to seek auspiciousness, the crew will arrange a simple scene for the first scene. After the successful passage, it means that the next shooting will be smooth sailing. That's why they chose this scene.
But I never imagined that the first shot only started for two seconds, and then something went wrong, and it was the most basic, amateur, and speechless situation - the actor's focal length and focus were deviated, which really made David angry. burn.
One of the biggest differences between film, television and theater is the visual focus.
On the stage of the drama, the focus of the actors is always aimed at the audience under the stage. They need to release their emotions to the audience, and they can even look at a specific audience to complete the communication through performance, bringing visual and auditory shocks. .

Film and TV are different, because the camera lens is constantly moving, and the director hopes to switch different angles, distances, and positions to create a different sense of space. The color, light, scenery, and characters in the lens are all the director expresses his thoughts. It is called "camera language", which means that the focus of the actor should be based on the director, it may be looking at an open field, it may be looking at the opponent's actor, or it may be facing the camera.
Many newcomers, especially those who have turned from drama, will habitually look at the camera, especially the red light above the camera, which indicates that it is running, and adjust their focus and rhythm with this focus. Such rookie-level mistakes are not uncommon, but they are really frustrating.
Renly made this mistake just now. As the camera moves, Renly's focus is drawn to the red light and then follows in the footsteps of the cameraman, which completely breaks the whole picture.
David was indeed angry that the first scene of "War in the Pacific" was interrupted because of such a nihilistic mistake, and the good omen of the good start was in vain. David gritted his teeth hard, he could teach this stupid newcomer a good lesson, but thinking that this was only the first scene of the startup, he finally suppressed his anger, "Don't stare at the camera, the first rule of being on camera is , understand?" The words were squeezed out from between the teeth, but the simple words carried an uncontrollable helplessness, as if to ridicule Renly's ignorance.
There were many old fritters standing behind the crew, all chatting with each other, with a schadenfreude and mocking smile on their faces. Whether it was a rookie making a mistake or a newcomer being trained, this is the best talk for the crew members after a meal. "War in the Pacific" has only just started its first day, and Renly has an affectionate nickname, "The Embarrassing Rookie."
Hearing the voice of "Ka", Renly's first reaction was to be a little confused. He stood in front of the camera with full confidence and ambition. You can still amaze the audience, but I didn't expect that just two seconds after the start, he was actually called to stop, like a blow to the head, Ren Li was really caught off guard.
Turning his head subconsciously, Renly was looking for Darling's figure in the crowd - didn't he just say, medium shot to long shot, orbital shooting? Why is it that the close shot is turned into a medium shot when the actual shooting is done, and the photographer shoots? He suddenly saw the appearance of the photographer within his line of sight, and his attention was distracted. Coupled with his unfamiliarity with action cameras, he instinctively adjusted the focus according to the red dot, which led to the situation.
Renly saw Dallin easily, but he was talking to the people around him in a low voice, the lightness of his brows and the smile on the corner of his mouth seemed to not notice anything wrong at all. Aware of Renly's sight, Dallin raised his head, glanced at it, stopped lightly like a feather, and then put it away, without any excess emotion, as if Renly was just a little ant. Worth mentioning.
This is a fact. Darling is the chief drama executive of the entire crew. He is high above the ground and has the power to control all the work behind the scenes. Renly is just a young rookie who has no power, no power, no roots and no foundation, even his friends in the crew. All are few and far between.
Renly didn't know why Darling wanted to set himself up, but now he finally understood what Lamy meant. What is "the little devil is difficult to deal with", the crew not only has the director and producer who control the power of life and death, but also cooperates with The actors and the staff behind the scenes, the latter may not be able to decide life and death, but if they stumble under the details, it is enough to make people miserable.
Suppressing the turbulent emotions in his chest, Renly did not foolishly complain to David, nodded, and took his own mistakes calmly, "Sorry. I will pay attention." At the end of the day, as an actor, the way to get back on the scene is very simple. Conquering the director with a wonderful performance is the most direct and effective way.
Re-adjust your breathing to prevent your thoughts from being disturbed by this little accident just now, and enter the performance state again.
From Eugene's body, Renly couldn't help thinking of himself in the previous life. After the car accident, he woke up from a coma, but found that his body could not move. The panic and fear were like an endless free fall. The doctor sentenced him to death, and he would be trapped in this hospital bed for the rest of his life. Turning his head, he saw the children playing in the hospital yard. They were running, laughing, and frolic, and the golden sunlight cast a thin halo on everything, so beautiful that it was heartbreaking.
"Start shooting!" David's voice rang out again.
"In Pearl Harbor, in the Pacific Islands, in the Philippines, in the Malay Peninsula, in the Dutch East Indies..." On the radio, Churchill's speech was about the crisis of the current war situation, and the crackling sound of wood burning in the fireplace made the room more and more reflected. The coldness and tranquility in the room, Churchill's voice without too many ups and downs added a touch of tragic and solemn, "Everyone must recognize that the current situation is in jeopardy..."
Eugene walked down from the second floor, wearing his coat, he couldn't help slowing down, and when he turned his head, he saw his father and brother who were listening attentively in the living room.
His gaze fell on his brother with envy and longing. The straight military uniform was shining in the firelight; his father was holding a pipe, his straight spine was slightly bent, his face was heavy, and he fell into contemplation. "Only when the United States of America and the British Empire unite against Japan will we be able to..."
The elder brother first noticed Eugene's appearance, raised his head, his eyes hesitated, and then his father also raised his head and glanced at Eugene.
Eugene's footsteps were completely frozen in place, his relaxed shoulders could not help firming up, his straight spine tried to support his strength, and he retained the last trace of dignity in front of his father and brother.
However, he failed. The messy eyes were full of too much weight, and they were pressed down fiercely. The heart was suddenly caught, and all breathing was cut off. The tough shoulder line could not help but tremble slightly, revealing that A trace of sadness and pain, the struggling persistence did not last long, it was shattered in less than a second, and then completely collapsed, the shivering fragility fell down with despair, as if losing everything The strength of a jacket cannot even sustain the weight of a jacket.
The intertwining of despair and anger made Eugene's chin curve slightly tense. He avoided his sight in embarrassment. Half of his face was exposed under the light and shadow. It was calm and indifferent, but it outlined a touch of loneliness, in the sparse light. Slowly fainted between the halos. The thick and slender eyelashes cast a shadow, shaken twice, and then turned into countless fragments, falling apart, and a hazy layer of sadness appeared in the long and narrow eyes, spreading silently like ripples.
Then, the father turned his eyes away and threw himself back into the radio again, his brother's gaze resting hesitantly on Eugene's shoulder, scorching hot.
Eugene could no longer bear such torment. He quickly left the hall and took a step towards the gate. His heavy footsteps stumbled a bit, but he did not stop at all. Instead, he went faster and faster, complaining. And the flames of hatred blooming like flowers under the feet. "Bang", the door was slammed shut, and the muffled sound cut off all emotions and stopped abruptly.
The father sitting in the hall couldn't help but raised his head and turned to look in the direction Eugene had left, his eyes full of loneliness.
It's over, the shooting of this scene is over, the beginning and the end are only five to seven seconds, and it will end soon, it's just a microcosm of a moment. However, the studio was silent, not only David did not make a sound, but even the other actors held their breaths.
An incredible light burst out from David's eyes. It was unbelievable that this rookie rookie burst out with such amazing energy in the short five seconds just now.
There is not a single line, not even a close-up of the frontal face, the entire shot is only Eugene's back and profile, but the delicate changes in the back muscles and the slender body's desire to speak, but the despair, anger, sadness, The mixed emotions of pain, remorse, and complaining were vividly displayed. Even in such a narrow window, he still showed the changes and ups and downs of his emotions, but there was a far-reaching aftertaste. It is a model of silent better than sound. The interlacing of light and shadow seems to clearly see the traces of time on the lines of the face, which is so shocking that the language loses its meaning.
He is like the darling of the lens. The projection of light, the capture of images, and the transformation of motion and stillness are perfectly and vividly presented in the camera lens. It seems that every second of time is endowed with meaning. It's amazing, it's amazing! This is a skill, but also a talent, like a blessing from God, born for the camera and live for the performance.
Five seconds, but in five seconds, the actor expressed all the emotions in place, David could even outline the vivid image of Eugene's entire character in his mind, and the wonderful performance really made people stunned.
"Ka!" David finally found his voice, ending the freezing of the entire studio, and the shock came out like a torrential rain.
