At the beginning of the show, the lights were turned on, and the camera lens was aimed at today's protagonists - Hu Ge and Yan Ni. The two of them stand in front of a set that mimics an ancient market, ready to stage an affectionate kiss scene. Do you think it's an ordinary day?Oh, no, no, no, today we're going to take a look at how two big names in the film and television industry show their professionalism in a relaxed and joyful way.
Hu Ge, remember that we have an emotional foundation!Yan Ni teased, with a bit of banter in her tone. "Of course, I remember that I have gone through countless ancient books to construct the intricacies between us. Hu Ge responded, with a smile in the corner of his eyes.
It's not just a rehearsal for a kiss scene, it's more like a humorous conversation contest between two old friends. The onlookers couldn't help but let out a knowing laugh. Even the director hid his face and snickered, thinking that these two people could really apply their daily ridicule to character building.
Speaking of which, in the crew, Hu Ge and Yan Ni can be described as "joy makers". Once, in order to show the character's unique walking posture, Hu Ge almost fell on all fours when he imitated the duck's gait on the set;And Yan Ni deliberately learned the ancient women's salute, and "elegantly" bowed and nodded and bumped into the set. If you don't see such a scene with your own eyes, you would never imagine that they are so naughty behind their deep and complex characters on the screen.
But don't look at their funny scenes, but they are not sloppy in their treatment of the characters. In order to better understand the precipitation of the years experienced by the elderly characters in the script, Yan Ni deliberately went to a nursing home to spend a few days with the elderly;Hu Ge, on the other hand, locked himself at home and pondered every detail of the script repeatedly.
The most talked-about part of the filming process was the improvisational vignettes between the two actors. Sometimes it's a misplaced eye contact that triggers laughter in the audience;Sometimes it's a small action that is inadvertently revealed that makes the director decide to include it in the shot.
Of course, the behind-the-scenes staff who are busy on the edges, on the move, and walking from studio to studio with all kinds of equipment and cosmetics in hand, are just as important. They worked silently to ensure that everything went according to plan during the shooting time of more than a dozen hours or more.
All in all, countless classic pictures were born under the interweaving of light-hearted humor and hard work. As Hu Ge and Yan Ni demonstrated, professional attitude and character building can have both internal and external vitality and complete artistic creation in pleasure - this is the most touching thing about film and television production.
In this seemingly calm but actually turbulent film, full of jokes and hidden mysteries, "every shot is like a first", as a veteran actor said. And me?Let's just say that I'm honored to be the small but joyful chronicler of this journey – though I can't tell you who I am.
