In the past two days, some of the previously lively and hot dramas have been watched, such as "Like a Fire Year", "Fearless", etc., and there will be no dramas that can be eye-catching. At present, it is in a period of drama. Today, I happened to see this "Rock Pear Garden" on the iQiyi platform, and the name is quite scary at first glance. Because this is the collision and fusion of the extremely traditional and the very modern, the combination between such a pair of poles makes people look forward to it. Just imagine, what will be the effect when a Tsing Yi and a rock lead singer meet on the same stage?As long as I think about it, the desire to follow the drama is stimulated.
However, after watching a few episodes, I realized that I came with desire, but what I got was full of disappointment. Recently, when the editor was fine, he also tried to watch a few one-minute short dramas on the Internet, and if you don't pursue the logic of the story, this kind of small short drama is still quite interesting. However, each episode of "Rock 'n' Roll Pear Garden" is ten minutes long, so it seems that it is somewhere between an online short series and a TV series. However, when comparing "Rock 'n' Roll Pear Garden" with short dramas and TV series, it is more embarrassing in terms of quality and good-looking. Of course, I'm not saying that this is true for other works of the same kind as "Rock 'n' Roll Pear Garden".
Of course, there are many other ten-minute short dramas that are particularly good-looking, at least many times better than the "Rock and Roll Pear Garden" in front of you. Again, I was attracted by the name of this show, and as for the cast and storyline in it, I didn't think about it at all. It seems that without good actors and mature actors, the quality of the drama is really not guaranteed. If you are deceived by the name of the work, it doesn't matter, at least the cast can give me some comfort, but I don't know any of the actors in the play. Therefore, I estimate that this should be a web drama made by the platform with a small expense.
After talking about it for a long time, what did this drama make the old editor unhappy?In addition to the lack of mature and familiar actors, the progress of the story is not good. In general, TV dramas, as long as they start, the plot enters the fast lane of tense plots like movies. And "Rock 'n' Roll Pear Garden" is different, it started with an old cow pulling a broken car, slowly and leisurely, and after watching all four episodes, the audience still doesn't know what the protagonist's dramatic motivation is?It seems that the choreographer does not rely on the protagonist's motivation to advance the plot, but pushes people with things, so that the characters can passively move forward under the impetus of the evolution of events.
After watching four episodes, I took a look at the plot introduction of this drama with this suspicion, and sure enough, the work is based on the background of Sino-Thai cultural exchanges and launched three major drama events: one is the traditional opera competition;One is the campus band competition of the protagonist Xiang Yuxin;The other is that Xiang Yuxin was forced by his grandfather to rehearse another Peking Opera work. It stands to reason that this is a good theatrical motive or theatrical goal, but the choreographer doesn't have that aggressive sense of urgency at all. At this point, "Rock 'n' Roll Pear Garden" is far inferior to those one-minute episode-by-episode online short dramas.
To be precise, the choreographer does not organize the plot material according to the goal of the drama or the motivation of the characters, otherwise, the rhythm of the drama will not be so dragging and loose. Perhaps some readers will refute the old editor and say: the reason for the former.
Episodes 4 and 5 seem a bit loose, and they are mainly in the story foreshadowing stage. But I wondered, what kind of huge subject matter?Let the choreographer take such a lot of trouble to pave the way?You are just a small production of ten minutes per episode, and you have used so much foreshadowing, and the reason behind this can only be that the experience of the choreographer and director is too poor.
To borrow a common saying, it is: pull out four taels of a thousand catties. There is a reader who objected to the old editor, no, this saying was originally "four or two to pull out a thousand catties", how did you come to become a "thousand catties to pull out four taels"?Isn't it?It took so much space, and in the end, only a few explosive points were laid out (as can be seen from the plot synopsis), isn't this equivalent to using a 50-kilometer run-up to jump high?In fact, this is originally a Xi of domestic dramas, and it has not yet died out. Of course, this technique cannot be said to be useless, and it is still very useful in the creation of large-scale dramas.
However, if it is used for the small production of "Rock and Roll Pear Garden", it will be lame. Finally, let's talk about the acting skills of the actors in the play. Complex emotional scenes are not arranged in the play, which allows the young actors to escape. There are fewer literary dramas that are a little static, which makes the young actors not timid in their lines. Despite this, the audience can also see that these young actors still have a lot of room for improvement in their lines. Especially when there are contradictions and conflicts, there are many lines that young actors can't control.
