In a costume drama, you may think, does it all seem real? Recently, a post-95 actress Guan Chang** sparked heated discussions on the Internet. This ** exposes the various "fake props" used in the filming site of costume dramas, and makes people begin to question the phenomenon of frequent "fakes" in costume dramas in recent years.
Maybe you are not familiar with the name Guan Chang, but she has performed well in many popular dramas, such as "Futu Yuan", "Flying Fox Gaiden" and "The Moon Shines on My Heart". Her filming experience is very rich, especially in the field of costume dramas.
In her**, you can see her working hard in different costume crews, and even filming at eleven o'clock in the middle of the night, showing her professionalism. Although Guan Chang is not well-known, she has always had stable job opportunities.
mentioned the interesting things in the filming, Guan Chang did not hesitate to reveal the "fake" appearance of many props in the costume drama.
For example, the "kneeling shot" that often appears is not actually the actor actually kneeling, but the crew prepares an apple box for them to sit on, and then covers it with a long skirt to pretend to kneel down, which can reduce the burden on the actor's knees.
The apple box was originally used to solve the problem of lack of height, and some male actors are not tall enough, so the crew will provide an apple box to increase their height.
On the set, plastic-textured foam rockeries can be seen everywhere, with perfunctory colors, hollow materials, and even the dried fruit snacks on the table are fake.
The peanuts stick to the bottom of the bowl, and the red dates are glued to the plate, and the glue marks are obvious, and there is even a layer of dust, which does not look fresh at all.
Guan Chang's original intention in filming this ** was to praise the crew's props for being able to "confuse the real with the fake", but after the release, it caused dissatisfaction and heated discussions among netizens.
Some netizens sighed, "No wonder there is no texture at all", "The traces of fraud are too obvious", "This is how the ancient puppet of internal entertainment is finished".
Someone else joked, "Why do you have to fake peanuts, can't you afford them?" In fact, over the years, the frequent "fakes" of costume dramas have caused the audience to accumulate a lot of resentment, and it is just an outbreak at this time.
Several recent hit dramas have also been hotly discussed because of the problem of "fake". In a Xianxia drama, the male protagonist actually wore 20 cm height-increasing shoes in order to increase his height, which was shocking.
He can even climb a tree in such high shoes, which is really a rare acrobatic talent. In the face of netizens' complaints, the actor angrily issued a ** response, saying that his height was not 168 cm as reported on the Internet, but about 179 cm.
But why wear such exaggerated height-booster shoes? Is it just to get the attention and controversy of the audience? It's puzzling.
The level of production of some episodes is simply staggering. The green screen cutout is rough and frighteningly fake. Landscape wall calendars in the 90s didn't have such a strong green color. In another Xianxia drama, a big white sedan appeared in the background of the lantern night scene, which shows the roughness of the production team.
Compared with other well-made costume crews, the performance of these crews is really not flattering. All actors have to really kneel, and they have to practice kneeling for 80 minutes every day, even underage actors. This is the attitude that should be taken to shoot a good movie.
TV dramas are not fast food, and the old version of "Dream of Red Mansions" is a good example, well-made and with realistic props. If you don't have the intention, don't make excuses. I hope that the future costume crew can pay attention to these issues and improve their own production level.
