Lou Xiaobao was probably the only person in the amusement park who knew something about acting. Although Zhou Yu claimed to be the director, in fact, the director of Beidou, Ling Daoran, presided over the whole show. And Lou Xiaobao is the only one who can give certain acting guidance to those who will be recruited next.
Although Zhou Yu said it was a custom-made movie, he didn't want to make a substandard work, after all, Xiao Muli and the others were looking forward to it. In addition, the director Ling Daoran has "perfect obsessive-compulsive disorder". It is even more difficult for him to pass the level of substandard acting skills.
Xiaobao started, followed by some other supporting roles.
After all, this movie is a real person, so many people are needed to participate, and those who are only covered may not be enough. And from the perspective of age group, it really takes some time to find the right actor. Moreover, Zhou Yu didn't like filming it as a commercial film, and finding professional actors would ruin the original atmosphere. It's better to find some familiar people to have fun.
Immediately afterwards, Yuan Yuan also joined in, and those popular characters of Que Zhuan were also drawn into the circle one by one. As for the others, Zhou Yu arranged for them to be handymen for the crew, doing some work on the venue and the like. There must also be a live broadcast, live broadcast of the filming scene, old iron, there is nothing wrong with it.
However, for older people, it is difficult. It's not that it's hard to find, but it's hard to get people to agree. There were a lot of old people in Luhua Village, and they all knew Zhou Yu, but when they heard that a movie was going to be made, all of them hurriedly waved their hands and refused. After living such a long time, I was nervous to be on TV, let alone being an actor on the big screen.
However, there are only a few elderly characters in the script, so it’s not enough if we don’t look for them. In the end, I can only pick a few stage plays in the fantasy city, and use old-age makeup to make do with it.
The script and actors are all in place, and the next step is scene production.
Although it is a movie with an amusement park as the main background, there are still some shots that cannot be shot in the amusement park, and the scene needs to be created through the set. In the past, it was used to make small figures, which is completely incomparable with what is needed now. The carpenter Beaver can only give designs and cannot manufacture them.
Fortunately, Zhou Yu brought out a prop master, Wu Yun, and Wu Yun brought out a props class. With the overnight processing of these people, the required props and sets were quickly assembled.
Everything is ready to shoot!
The shooting of the movie is actually similar to the previous animated movies, except that most of the characters participating this time are real people. And the real director Ling Daoran will not show mercy just because he is a real person. On the contrary, because he is basically an amateur actor, his scumbag acting skills make him furious, and various three-character scriptures keep floating out of his mouth. Zhou Yu can only be patient. After listening to the temper, he conveyed his meaning one by one.
The filming went smoothly, but the hearts of the actors were broken.
At first everyone thought it was another whim of the boss, wanting to make a live-action movie. Zhou Yu is the king of ACG. He may be good at animation shooting, but if he is a real person, he should be just a layman. Even for a master animation director, a live-action movie might just be a mess.
Therefore, basically everyone participated in the shooting with the mentality of a game. Especially on the first day of filming, seeing that Zhou Yu was only shooting with a portable camera, and there was only one photographer, he was even more sure that this was just a low-cost private film. Wouldn't it be nice to have fun and have fun, get used to being an actor, and then eat a box lunch prepared by the emperor himself
However, no one expected that the boss Zhou Yu would actually come for the real thing!
Acting guidance alone can make these amateur actors complain endlessly. Pass one? That's impossible. Under the director of the shouting card maniac Zhou Yu, didn't there be dozens or hundreds of thoughts? Whimsical! The worst thing was that there was a very long line, and all the actors in the audience were forgetting the words, or they were called out because their acting skills were not good enough. It’s just such a short paragraph, I’ve been shooting for a whole day, and I don’t know how many times I repeated it, but I just can’t pass it.
Director Ling Daoran has gone completely crazy. Facing this group of scumbag actors who are not even as good as E-class idols, he really wants to cross the wall of dimensions and give everyone a brain melon seed!
You guys want to be actors! Except for that little treasure who can barely be considered a C-level idol, the others are simply sticks! If you don't dial it, you won't move it. You have to teach him bit by bit by dismantling it, smashing it, and teaching him bit by bit, so that he can barely make a shape.
My God, this is killing obsessive-compulsive disorder!
Ling Daoran suffered, and Zhou Yu suffered even more.
It's really not easy to be a sounding board. While enduring all kinds of roars from Ling Daoran, he also has to take the trouble to convey Ling Daoran's meaning to every actor who is not performing well, and he has to pierce those three-character scriptures that are not ear-catching. And sometimes, Zhou Yu really wanted to pass on these three-character scriptures intact, but thinking that this was the bitter fruit brewed by himself for not finding professional actors, he could only swallow it with tears in his eyes.
Xia Huan and Shang Yue, who were always by my side, kept shaking their heads: "Brother Zhou, where did you find this group of rookies? It was originally a C-level script, even if Xiao Muli and the others joined, but they were dragged down by these people, At most, it can only maintain the level of C-level. If this kind of movie is played in 2D, the investors will lose their bottom pants."
"Don't be wordy, if you have nothing to do, help me figure out a way, if this continues, I don't know when I will shoot a movie."
In fact, Zhou Yu's film progress is already very good, but he is used to the speed of making a film in a short time, and now this level makes him very dissatisfied.
Facing this request, Xia Huan and Shang Yue both shrugged and expressed their incomprehension. One dimension apart, nothing can solve the problem of the actors' acting skills. There is no such miraculous thing in this world that can make a person with scumbag acting skills become a little gold medalist overnight.
Helpless, Zhou Yu could only follow the previous plan and use "turtle speed" to advance the progress of the movie little by little.
In this movie, Xiao Muli and they all participated. Every time they shoot, Zhou Yu will tell them to pretend that the 'alien' is shooting with you at the moment, and then use CG to fill in the alien in the later stage.
However, in fact, wherever there is any later stage, the 'aliens' are really by your side, using their superb acting skills to instantly kill real people with scumbag acting skills. But even with scumbag acting skills, Xiao Muli and the others were very devoted to the performance, professional in a mess.
Of course, Xiao Muli is also very happy, because this is the first time she has acted with a real person, and it is a novelty that she did not feel at all in her previous works.
Again, just be happy.
