Rebirth of Super Red Star

The preparation time before the official start of filming passed quickly, and the filming of "I am a soldier" officially started.

At the director's request, Cheng Le wore his regular uniform to shoot some material and then changed his clothes. He came back in a training uniform, a little less handsome than before, but the heroic look in his eyebrows and eyes still couldn't be concealed.

In fact, he had long wanted to replace that layer of skin on his body. What does it mean for someone who is not an officer to walk around outside?I don't know what Qi Hongyan was thinking, not only asked him to take a lot of photos seriously during the fitting, but also didn't let him take it off after the fitting.It is said that wearing this outfit can let him get used to the identity and psychology of the character in advance, why didn't he think about how he should explain when asked?

It's not that he hates this identity, but that he feels a little uncomfortable wearing something that doesn't belong to him.Wearing it when filming is necessary for work, and wearing it when you have nothing to do is just looking for trouble. If you are caught by the inspection, it will be troublesome to explain. Could it be that you are experiencing life and preparing for filming TV dramas?

Unable to understand Qi Hongyan's thoughts, thinking of her snicker before he left, Cheng Le smiled wryly and shook his head.

He is powerless and unable to stop what this aunt is going to do, but he just hopes that his father, Cheng Jiahui, will not join the war, and some unexpected incidents will suddenly occur and he will be powerless to parry.

"Cut! The four leading actors come over and see what you did just now. It still doesn't feel right."

The director frowned looking at the screen shot on the monitor, raised his hand and called the leading actors over.

His qualifications can be said to be deep or shallow. He has filmed several TV dramas with mediocre ratings and several commercials. Of course, he does not want to let go of this rare opportunity.

If there are no accidents, this drama will be on the imperial court when it goes online.Although the audience rating is unknown, the minimum base is guaranteed.There are red dramas every year, basically one after another, and it is the first time that the plot is so unexpected as this time.

The plot is no longer aimed at the Anti-Japanese War, but for the first time focuses on the life and growth of soldiers.Although the development of the plot is flat, it’s better to watch the real thing, even if someone who is familiar with the army can guess the general development of the plot, as long as the actors in the play perform well, the real feeling can attract the audience to watch the play until the whole time. The play is over.

So this time he also worked hard to shoot the trick well!This drama will never fail, but which director would dislike the high ratings?For any director, the TV ratings in his hands are a qualification, and naturally the higher the qualification, the better.

"Look at it, expression, demeanor, don't be so listless."

Pointing to the images of the leading actors on the screen, the director analyzed them one by one.

This scene is the beginning of the plot, and the recruits have just begun formal training.You can be young, and it doesn’t matter if you are not proficient. You can deal with errands, and the feeling of not doing your best should never appear.

He took out the images of formal soldier training and compared them with those of the leading actors, and immediately gave these actors who didn't quite understand it an intuitive impression.Real soldiers can feel a kind of power in every movement, right or wrong. Although their movements seem to be almost soft, they can make people feel that they are acting.

"Understood? Then shoot again. I don't ask you to be standard in your movements, but you must be energetic! Your role is a soldier who trains hard, not an actor acting as a soldier. You must not let anyone see this! "

The shooting started again, and after more than an hour of busy work, I finally completed the relevant shots of the protagonists' initial training.

Next, because of the relationship between the venue and the props, there is a successful scene. Although the relationship between the plot and the characters has taken a big leap, it is always inevitable to make the filming work more efficient.

The difference in the quality of actors is reflected at this moment.Good actors can always quickly adjust their mentality and emotions according to different plots. The relationship between actors and characters that are not so good is not so easy to straighten out, and usually requires the director's explanation and guidance.

"Cheng Le, are you ready?"

When the crew got ready for the work, it was Cheng Le's turn to take the first set of official shots. The director was obviously a little worried after going through the baptism of a rookie just now.

Although the information he had read stated that Cheng Le graduated from the Department of Acting, he still couldn't help explaining it, just thinking that this group of slightly difficult shots should not be delayed for too long.And in order to have a good effect, this set of shots will inevitably be shot many times. I hope Cheng Le will pay attention to his physical strength and not lose his temper. All ng reshoots and so on are for shooting needs.

"You see, this set of shots is a bit difficult, but you are not required to do it 100%. We will find fighters who are about the same size as you to make up some shots, but you can't relax the requirements just because of this! It doesn't matter if you can't get over those obstacles. , the action must be done properly. Your role is the platoon leader of those guys! I believe you should understand the meaning of the word "example" without me explaining it."

Nodding his head, Cheng Le glanced at a series of obstacles and high walls on the driving range.

That thing is two meters high, and beginners will definitely be blocked by it.As for the other obstacles in the previous series, they are not too difficult for him. It may be troublesome for him to be successful in the past, but he has been training for so long to do it, even if he can't reach the speed of elite soldiers, like ordinary soldiers. There is no problem with the qualified completion.

"The personnel are in place, ready to start filming!"

A row of more than 30 soldiers sat on the ground, except for a few protagonists, the rest were formal soldiers who came to cooperate with the filming after training and resting in other venues.Sitting with them, even though these soldiers are very polite in silence, it is still a little uncomfortable to see the expressions of the leading actors.

It's inevitable that even though the soldiers are restrained by their own officers, they still look down on the performance of these weak chickens in the crew.It's not that they really look down on the crew, but it's a natural expression of their own job. This kind of emotion is applicable to any field and any situation. Even ordinary skilled workers will look down on rookies, let alone these fighters.

"Platoon leader, come on, it's up to you!"

"Hahaha……"

The camera started to work, and as soon as Cheng Le took his seat, someone started booing.

Looking back at those guys, Cheng Le took off his hat casually and patted it with his hands. There was no expression on his entire face. When he put on his hat again and looked over, a trace of contempt flashed in his eyes.

This scene was captured by the camera, and director Zhang Yun shook his head and laughed when he saw it.In his opinion, Cheng Le is also a tempered person with high self-esteem, unless he is someone he is convinced, don't let him put down his airs and make friends with anyone.

"Everyone get ready, "I'm a Soldier" No.90 three games——!"

The filming officially started, Cheng Le's body paused for a moment and immediately rushed out.

This scene was filmed as a 400-meter obstacle course, and the whole process included seven obstacles: cross piles, trenches, low walls, high board diving platforms, single-plank bridges, high walls, and low pile nets.To complete all of them needs to go through [-] obstacles in a round trip, which is basically impossible for ordinary people without serious training.

According to Zhang Yun's idea, there were several camera positions to capture the performance of the actors during the shooting.The seven obstacles are also divided into three parts.Actors such as Cheng Le only need to complete one or two of the piles, low walls, high-plank diving platforms, single-plank bridges, and low-pile nets. Ask the soldiers to complete the editing and it's over.

For the physical considerations of the actors, he planned to shoot in three camera positions three times throughout the whole process.A picture of the actor jumping down and climbing out while waiting in the ditch for the return trip, and the other is placed behind the single-plank bridge and in front of the high board wall.

It is enough to set it in this place to capture the pictures of the actors reaching the high wall, and then combine the pictures taken by the camera set at the return point to stitch together the heroic posture of the official soldiers when they climbed the high wall, and the scene is over .But after the unexpected scene happened, Cheng Le, who played the role of platoon leader Quan Quan, rushed out immediately. After the 100-meter pre-run, he quickly passed the cross pile and crossed the ditch. It is an easy and freehand way to pass with one hand.

The high board jumping platform and the single-plank bridge made it easy for him to complete. If the most troublesome high board wall was not close at hand, the director really wanted to catch Cheng Le and ask him which unit in the regiment he was captured from to participate in the filming of.

The high board wall is here, Zhang Yun no longer intends to use pictures of other soldiers instead of Cheng Le to complete this section.He believes that it can be done at Chengle's level, and if he can finish filming this scene without cutting for a second, he will definitely not use a stand-in.

On the obstacle course, in front of the high board wall.

After jumping off the single-plank bridge, Cheng Le accelerated a few steps, kicked his right foot against the wall, and then jumped up with force.Clinging to the top of the high wall with both hands, the whole body rolled over in an instant.

Land, accelerate, and crawl over the last low-pile net with a low body.It is difficult to bypass the last seven obstacles at the round-trip point, such as high walls and trenches, and there are no new tricks in the other five events, let alone Chengle's difficulty in blocking his footsteps.

"C, cut! Take a break."

After looking at the less than 2-minute footage, director Zhang Yun was very satisfied.

This can be regarded as a somewhat difficult plot for the role of Quanquan. Originally, he wanted to shoot a few more times to save enough material and edit to complete it.Unexpectedly, when encountering unexpected joy, Cheng Le, an actor, did it directly without a substitute.

Well, since the level is here, he has to complete the next few shots by himself.It is always right to strive for perfection, as long as the final product of the film is good, I believe the actors themselves will have no objection if they are more tired now.

"Cheng Le, come here, there are a few things that need attention."

Calling Cheng Le who was standing by at the starting point to explain, Zhang Yun smiled and patted him on the shoulder to show his appreciation.

The job of an actor looks glamorous to outsiders and makes a lot of money after becoming famous, but who knows the hard work in filming and TV series.

Just like this plot, you can't pass it just once or twice.

Even if Cheng Le does it perfectly once or twice, the director has to ask for other angles in order to complete the film.In addition, performing this kind of thing can be said to be a process that is easy to pass once. As long as the funds are sufficient and there is no producer complaining, all directors will keep improving and shoot repeatedly until they are satisfied.

"Everyone get ready, the 93rd scene of "I am a soldier", the second article——"

"!"
