In the final analysis, the performance methods of actors are experience school, method school and expression school, among which experience school and method school belong to the same school.Both the experience school and the method school pay attention to turning the life of the character into the life of "I", requiring the actor "I" to be personally on the scene.However, the difference between the method school and the experience school is that the method school's character life can be artistically processed.

To put it simply, if a heterosexual male actor is asked to play a gay male character, when falling in love with another gay male character, the experiential school will require the heterosexual male actor to immerse himself 100% in the In this gay male character, he actually fell in love with another gay male character.However, the method school allows heterosexual actors to use replacement methods to better immerse themselves in the role, that is, allows heterosexual actors to imagine the opposing gay actor as an actress, and then use heterosexual love methods to analogize and replace homosexuality. way of love.The expression school is completely different from the experience school and the method school. The expression school generally requires actors to conceive the role they want to play in their own minds, and then project themselves onto this role.

Therefore, for experiential actors, the dramatic plot is my life; for method actors, the dramatic plot is my life after artistic processing; but for method actors, the dramatic plot is the play I want to act.

There is no distinction between these three performance methods, but there are subtle differences.The experiential and method actors can act very "real", as if they are the characters; but the expressionists can act very "delicately", as if the character is him.However, as far as the threshold of entry is concerned, the experience school is the most difficult, and the method school is relatively simple, because the experience school really depends on whether the ancestors reward you with this bowl of rice.

Li Wei is actually a bit of an experience school, especially when watching "Farewell My Concubine", Cheng Dieyi's sentence "If you are not crazy, you can't survive" is the best portrayal of the experience school.If the actor can't get lost in the character desperately, then you can't play anything.It's just that experienced actors can act realistically, but they can't get away from it.After Heath Ledger played the "Joker" in "Batman", he couldn't get away from himself, and finally left fans with an extremely classic role of the clown and a tragic ending that made people sigh.

Of course, the example of Heath Ledger is not meant to belittle the method school.Hong|Hong Kong's outstanding actor Leung Ka Fai is actually a method actor. His method of playing a role is to write a biography for the role.According to the setting of the script, he constructed a real character through reasonable imagination.Liang Jiahui will carefully set what kind of clothes this character will wear on what occasion, and then perform such a person himself.That's why Leung Ka Fai has the reputation of "King of Varieties", leaving countless classic characters for movie fans (in fact, he also made a lot of bad movies).

Writing biographies of characters is actually a habit of many excellent actors. After all, it is difficult to imagine a real person out of thin air. The easiest way is to give this fictional person various settings in the real world, so he wrote will slowly become real.Li Wei is currently making settings for the hero Zhen Shi, a 30-year-old town man who is simple, cheerful and lives a carefree life.When Li Wei continued to add various settings to Zhen Shi, and the settings became more and more detailed, Li Wei could already outline such a person in his mind.

Li Wei began to close his eyes, imagining that he was Zhen Shi, and what was his expression when he greeted everyone every day?Not enough Li Wei took a closer look at his own face, and suddenly found that there was a big difference between himself and Zhen Shi's settings.For example, Zhen Shi is just a small-town man, while he is a typical urban handsome boy.Thinking of this, Li Wei called the company's stylists, make-up artists, and costume artists, and then explained a look to them, hoping that they would use this look on themselves.After a day or two of modification and running-in, a Zhen Shi that fits Li Wei's setting appeared in the mirror.

First of all, Li Wei used some props to gain some weight on himself. After all, ordinary young and middle-aged men are not as thin as male idols like Li Wei. class flaws; finally, clothing tends to be a little more popular.After Li Wei checked it, he decided to use this look to participate in tomorrow's audition.

Although Du Wen had already explained to the outside world that this is a feature film and the investment will not be very high, Du Wen's reputation is still huge, so many actors sent their resumes.After being screened by the casting director, some actors got the chance to audition.With the increasing development of China's film industry, the so-called internal appointments of roles are actually becoming less and less.Any audition for a proper film not only has the producer and director present, but also the writer, casting director, and screen actors union representatives.Representatives of the Screen Actors Union mainly play a supervisory role and do not directly participate in casting matters.But the other four have voting rights for the roles, and only in the case of a tie will the default be the director's final decision.

It is precisely because of such an open selection system that the actors are not worried about any bad requests from the crew.You must know that in the golden age of Hong Kong movies, many actors were tricked by the crew into making movies they didn't want to make.Of course, this also allows the role to find the most suitable actor to play.

After interviewing several actors, it was finally Li Wei's turn.When Li Wei appeared in his special appearance, Du Wen laughed.Li Wei explained: "This is the image I think of Zhen Shi, so I think it will be more convincing to use this image to perform."

After the interviewers laughed, they finally chose one of the shots for Li Wei to try.Li Wei's acting skills are outstanding among idols, but among actors, they are only above average.Fortunately, Li Wei had worked hard in advance, so his emotions were soon substituted into the role of Zhen Shi.After a performance, basically everyone present was very satisfied.In particular, the casting director recognized Li Wei's image very much, and felt that this image could be used to set the makeup.

"We are very satisfied with your performance. If there is no accident, we will sign the contract in three working days." Du Wen finally decided to choose Li Wei.

Originally, Du Wen felt that Li Wei was the first choice under the same conditions, but now Li Wei is several blocks away from other alternate actors. If Du Wen doesn't choose him, who else will he choose?And seeing what Li Wei had done beforehand, Du Wen was very satisfied.In particular, Li Wei even conceived the matter of setting makeup, and I think he really loves this role.

It took about two weeks for Du Wen's "Real World" crew to delineate the list of leading actors, so they invited everyone to enter the studio for filming.The plot of the whole play is not particularly complicated, and the scenes are also very fixed, so about [-]% of the shots can be shot in the studio, and only a small number of scenes need to be shot outside.Everyone is very satisfied with the director's arrangement.After all, this kind of studio shooting is relatively comfortable, at least the central air conditioner in the studio can control the approximate temperature.And there is no need to sleep in the wind, sleep in the open, sun and rain, and actresses don't have to complain that they need to do repairs for at least a month after filming.In particular, the film and television center where this kind of studio is located is generally not too far from the urban area, and there are good star-rated hotels around, so everyone's accommodation conditions can be improved a lot, so the actors' enthusiasm for shooting is still very high.

The acting skills of the whole "Real World" need to be carried by Li Wei alone, because it can be said that except for Zhen Shi played by Li Wei, the rest of the actors are supporting roles and secondary roles.This kind of movie where all the acting skills are concentrated on one character has both advantages and disadvantages for the actor. The advantage is that once the movie is a big success, then the actor will definitely rise, and it is not a big problem to win several actor nominations; but The disadvantage is that once the movie fails, this actor is the first choice to take the blame.At this time, Li Wei had the spirit of a newborn calf not afraid of tigers. In addition, Li Wei was also humbly learning during filming. After more than two months of filming, "The Real World" has entered the finalization stage.

Regardless of the fact that the shooting of the film only took more than two months, it is because most of the shots of this film can be completed in the studio.But if you look at the production time of the entire movie, the shooting is really not a particularly long stage.

In the film pre-work, the selection and completion of the script will take at least two to three years for the production company.From the selection of the theme of the script to the finalization of the script, this is something that cannot be determined for at least one or two years, and then the location survey and production budget.When it was actually filmed, at least three years had passed.

It usually takes half a year to finish making a movie.Unless you are the kind of global live-action movie, a half-year shooting cycle is definitely enough.Next, it will take another year or so to produce post-production, and finally it will take another two to three months to determine the final release version.

At this point, the movie may not meet the audience. If the schedule is not good or the subject matter happens to hit a negative event, then it may be delayed for a year or a few years.There are even directors who finish filming with great enthusiasm, and finally the distribution company thinks that the box office appeal is not enough. As a result, they are silently withdrawn from the theater queue and directly enter the DVD market. There are also things where the director wants to cry but has no tears.

As the producer, Li Wei has the final editing rights of the film, so Li Wei is not worried that he will not see it.Now that the film industry is highly developed, the power of directors has actually been reduced a lot. For example, there are jobs such as casting directors, special effects directors, editors, etc. to override part of the powers of directors.Because the director is an individual, the things he shoots still have too much personal taste.If personal taste matches market demand, then everyone is happy.

However, most of the directors have literary ideas, so the producers had no choice but to resort to editors to make the works meet the needs of the market to the greatest extent.Of course, some super directors still have the final editing rights, because they themselves are the box office guarantee.In addition, although some big directors do not have the final editing rights, the producers will ask the directors to make a "director's cut version" out of respect, and then release it in the form of DVD.

Fortunately, "Real World" does not require many special effects, so the post-production and editing were completed in a short time.Then Du Wen called, ""The Real World" has been invited as the closing film of the Shengjing Film Festival, and it has also been selected for the competition. If you are free, let's take the time to walk the red carpet at the film festival together. You now You are in a period of transformation, and you need such exposure opportunities to let people in the film and television industry know you. ——Okay, I have sent the itinerary to your agent."

The author has something to say: I originally planned to finish writing overnight, but it tripped in the middle of the night.

I called the property company, but it turned out that the inspection was delayed until ten o'clock in the morning.

It was almost eleven o'clock when they changed the main switch and so on.
