Be a Movie Star in a Two-dimensional World

Arturia asked.

"No...that," Su Dao thought for a moment that his expression was exposed, but he suddenly realized that he was wearing a headgear on his head, and in order not to go against his heart, he could only nod his head: "Uh , I'm really surprised, why did Miss Arturia read the script so many times, is it to try to figure out the character?"

"Because I don't understand."

"not understand?"

"Why does the director keep telling me, Arturia, the Noda girl I want is the kind of girl who is full of nature and extremely egoistic. But your performance is too rigid and too dogmatic, my heroine is a girl who is looking for A female college student who dreams and likes people, an ordinary person who naturally laughs for love and food, not King Arthur who shoulders the fate of Great Britain, do you understand what I mean?"

Arturia tried to learn the director's tone, which was vivid, but after thinking about it, it made people laugh a little bit.

Wait, is this true?

Is there really any director who dares to say this in front of the best actress?

"It's incredible, isn't it?" Artoria, who seemed to have read Su Bad's thoughts, also chuckled, not only to relieve Su Bad's embarrassment, but also to make the atmosphere a bit humorous: "Although I'm tired of being told Afterwards, he also angrily attacked and said, "You, a director who hasn't made a few works, are still tender when you want to guide me in acting, how about you at least take the best director of the year and come back and talk about these big things?"

Saying so, her smile froze on her lips.

"...But I still feel uneasy."

The fingers holding the script were clenched a little white.

As a fan, Su Hao knows what troubles her.

King Arthur's image has been firmly rooted since she won best actress 10 years ago with "Fate Stay Night."This was originally a good thing, and after that she starred in the sequels "Hollow Ataraxia", "Fate/Zero", and the performance of "Fate/Apocrypha" as Mordred, the son of King Arthur, also sold well, so that her popularity continued to soar. It proves this even more.

But it is prosperous, and it is an indisputable fact that she always feels that the roles she plays are becoming more and more stereotyped, and even later, more and more films are repeating a template, before Arturia did not get the actress. The types of shots are varied.

In fact, a type of character who has performed well and won an award is also worthy of the word actor.

But Arturia just didn't want her acting career to be confined to this frame.

Therefore, in recent years, the signs of Arturia's transformation have become more and more obvious.

Even at the recent Model Moon Carnival, her resignation from the new work "Fate/EXTRA" was her determination to express her attitude.

But this kind of effort did not seem to bring the ideal return. As she said just now, the shooting of the new work did not seem to be as smooth as she imagined.Su Bad thinks that this may be because the role she plays has a violent conflict with the role that Arturia has always played in the past, or it is also incompatible with her own personality.

Of course, Su Bad has not read the script, so he doesn't have much say.

However, from a certain point of view, this conjecture is still based on some basis. Since Arturia wants to change, there is a possibility that the role she chooses in the script is very different from the past.

The biggest question now is how should she adapt to this role, and if she can't play this role in the end, it will even result in a collapse or resignation.There is no doubt that this will have a very bad effect on Arturia, who is trying to transform.

A bad performance may not affect her popularity, but it will definitely make the director, the producer, and even the audience think: "Look, she really isn't suitable for this kind of role." After that, Arturia If you want to continue to seek change, you will encounter even stronger resistance.

After all, movies are operated by capital, and people invite you to act to make money, not to accompany you to play.

Arturia herself undoubtedly knew this best, which is why she seemed so distressed.

How to solve it?

Chapter 105 Advice for civilians

"Sorry for saying something strange. Thank you for this glass of water."

Arturia herself doesn't understand why she would reveal her inner thoughts. This is almost impossible in normal times. Is it because she is facing the image of the puppet that she relaxes her guard?

But in any case, she no longer intends to continue on this topic.

She lowered her eyelashes and looked back at the script, which meant the end of the conversation.

However, Su Bad, did not understand what she meant, and continued to follow the words just now.

"Maybe try a method or an expressionist approach?"

He really hoped that he could advise Arturia and share some of her troubles, whether it was from a fan's point of view or a friend's point of view.

His words made Arturia snort lightly, and then re-examined her gaze to Su Bad: "Have you studied acting?"

Although there is nothing mysterious about the words "expressionist" and "methodology", it is like when computer code is spoken from someone else's mouth, it always reminds people that this is the truth of programmers.Most of the people who will understand these are also in the industry of actors and directors.

And the other party's funny puppet costume highlights this sense of disobedience.

Su Bad can't say that he understands it very well, because in Artoria, he is a gangster, and of course he can't say that he doesn't understand, don't understand? Then what are you pretending to be?

So after thinking about it, he said, "Uh, that one understands a little."

"Slightly understand..."

Arturia was also a little stunned for a while. She guessed that Su Bad might be a college student majoring in film and television, and then came to a TV station for an internship.

In this case, it is not surprising to know the terminology of these performance departments.

But the problem is that Arturia is not ignorant of "expressionism" and "methodology". On the contrary, she has used these methods long ago when she played Noda-mei.

She had said before that she had an unforgettable ability, and that was not a lie.Therefore, Arturia has of course read many books related to performance. At the same time, while she is busy with filming, she has also completed all the courses in the performance department of colleges and universities through correspondence, and successfully obtained the officially recognized degree. It can be said that Being from an academy, she doesn't need anyone to teach her how to act.

That's how it should be.

But the damn director said that she didn't do well enough, that she was bound by the ghost of King Arthur.

This is not at all a question of which performance method can be used to solve.

What that man wanted was to take the so-called deep-rooted impression that had been planted in the minds of the audience for more than ten years, and forcibly strip it out of Arturia's body.It felt as unrealistic as tearing the tendons sticking to the flesh and peeling the skin bloody.

Let's just put it that way.

The reason why stars are stars is because their images, or temperament, or some of the roles they play have been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.So that when they are there, the audience can immediately spot them and recognize who they are.

Otherwise, it's like those guys who are half-red or not, or not in the mainstream, who have acted in several dramas, others still can't remember his face when they see it, only when they see the name flashed in the performance list at the end, they have a little reaction. Even the guy who continues to be indifferent.

And the director in that play wanted Arturia to make this level of change, degenerating from an already famous painting to a blank slate.

She was annoyed at making such an almost unreasonable request, but she felt from the bottom of her heart that if she didn't do it to this extent, she would never be able to get rid of her past self.

The ghost of King Arthur?

Maybe it really is.

The roles she played in the past have long been the pinnacle and glory of her performance. They brought her fame, but also fixed her image. There are still many media and fans who keep their mouths shut. King Arthur or Saber's, causing Arturia to suffer more than her initial joy and pride.

She wants to change, but doesn't know how.

Although her character is a bit loner, Arturia is not a person who works behind closed doors. She has also asked many friends in the circle and some people with authority in acting.

They all gave her some pertinent opinions more or less, but what should I say, there are only so many theoretical foundations. After everyone has learned it, if they want to go to a higher level, they all depend on their own understanding and skills. Created.Even if you copy someone else's experience, it may not be useful after another person.

Seeing Arturia's silence, Su Hao thought that the other party was lost in thought because of his suggestion just now, so he said more enthusiastically: "These two performance methods are performances that highlight a certain aspect and are very easy to create. A distinctive sense of difference.”

He just wanted to say what he knew. In order to help Arturia, he didn't think too much about other things.

But there was something unexpected in his words that interested Arturia.

"Featured sense of difference?"

This is not what is written in textbooks.

In fact, Expressionism and Methodism are only a theoretical way of performing, but Su Bad has his own unique views on this aspect.

He nodded in response, and continued: "Yes, compared to the moderate experience school, these two methods are a bit "opportunistic". For example, the expression school is to increase the intensity of the performance to emphasize and exaggerate The way to highlight a certain characteristic of the character, and the method school is also the same, it usually intercepts a plot that is the same or similar to the performance plot, and performs it in an alternative way.”

Arturia naturally understands these contents, and what she wants to listen to is not these usual annotations, but what Su Hao just said about showing a distinctive sense of difference.

Under the urging of her eyes, Su Bad pondered for a while, and finally said his answer.

"If I guessed wrong, I'll apologize first." Su Hao said this first, then said: "Miss Arturia has left a lot of wonderful screen images in the past, no matter how Miss Arturia behaves , For a long time, the audience will have a preconceived impression of this. For example, this look has appeared in such and such places, and the scene of such and such is the same as that, so in order to subvert the image, these inherent impressions must be changed. Just tear it apart."

Arturia frowned, her voice was low and hoarse, but she didn't deny it: "If it's what you said, what do you say?"

When Arturia asked this sentence, she looked at the funny puppet costume in front of her and suddenly realized something.

Could it be that……

"Using expressionism to emphasize a certain 'different' characteristic of the character must be a big difference from the character that Miss Arturia has played before. Just focus on highlighting that point with all my strength, and it's okay to exaggerate a bit, because it needs to be eliminated. If you have an existing impression, you must create a strong sense of contrast." Su Bad said, "If you use the method school, you can tamper with it a little bit in an alternative situation."

"Falsify it?"

Again, this was something Arturia had never heard before, and there was no such thing as teaching directing in any book.

"It is to change some content in the situation you already have. For example, if you want to play watching a close person die, and your pet is substituted, then change it. If your dog gave it to a little girl who needs company , just imagine this situation."

The keywords of sadness, sadness, and reluctance suddenly appeared in front of Arturia's eyes. These are all emotions equivalent to the death of a loved one, but other than that, if the dog gave it to someone who needed it to accompany him more For a little girl, the feelings in it are much more complicated, and it will also sublimate a trace of gratitude for being with him in the past, wishes for the other party, mutual respect, and feelings for the future.

If you think about it this way, wouldn't this kind of expressiveness be better?

This is the distinctive sense of difference...

Arturia couldn't help but raised her head and looked at Su Hao.

Is what this guy said really possible?

"Are you really..."

Just when Arturia opened her mouth to say something, someone suddenly came out over there, intervening between her and Su Bad, interrupting their conversation.

"Miss Arturia, you are here! It's great, I finally found you." The man was wearing a TV station's suit and uniform, apparently from a certain program group. He walked over involuntarily and stopped Su Bad In front of him, he said urgently to Artoria: "The time for recording the show is about to start, please hurry up and do some makeup in front of you."

"..."

Arturia crossed the opponent's shoulder and looked at Su Hao who had stepped aside.

The latter waved at her there and made a goodbye gesture.

"understood."

Arturia is well-known for her dedication to work. She rarely refuses work, especially for a job like this one that has already been undertaken.

"This way." The people in the program team urged anxiously in front.

But Arturia stood there for a few seconds.

"Thank you, I will refer to your opinion." After leaving such a surprising sentence, Arturia followed in the footsteps of the guide and left.

Chapter 106 Audition Again

In a flash, it was September. When the "Snow Maiden" was raging, Su Bad received an unfamiliar phone call.

The person who called him was a man named Dachang, a rude, straightforward guy.

His first sentence omitted the greeting and asked, "Are you bad Su?", after getting a clear answer, he went straight to the subject: "I have a movie here, do you want to play it, not the male lead, but the role It's very challenging, how about it, do you want to try it?"

It is precisely because of this phone call that the subsequent meeting began.
