Chapter 249 Training Xiao Liu

Chapter 249 Training Xiao Liu

Chapter 249 Training Xiao Liu
Originally, Wang Hao and his team planned to produce the scene where Liu Yifei was kidnapped by gangsters in a studio.

However, the scenery of European and American buildings is different from that of domestic buildings, and this was pointed out in advance by the props and art.

So after comprehensive consideration, Wang Hao and his team decided to shoot this scene on location to increase the sense of reality.

In the early stage of filming the scene of saving her daughter, Liu Yifei's performance was considered okay. After all, she was drugged in this part of the plot and felt dizzy. She only needed to be expressionless and act as a pretty doll.

However, in the kidnapping scene, Liu Yifei's lack of acting skills was highlighted.

She couldn't perform the panic and fear caused by the unexpected events very well. As a well-protected girl, this kind of drama was not her forte.

Even if Wang Hao asked her to replace it with other emotions such as fear and panic, Liu Yifei was always unable to do it.

"Crystal!"

"somebody is coming!"

"Who? Are your friends back?"

"No…Oh my god! They caught Amanda!"

"what?"

"Crack!"

Before the staff member who was coordinating with Liu Yifei could continue to read the next lines, Wang Hao interrupted the other party's performance.

In the plot of the movie, Liu Yifei is standing in front of the window, watching her best friend being captured by gangsters while talking on the phone with her stepfather.

Of course, it was impossible to do this during the filming process. Liu Yifei stood in front of the window and shot all the shots related to this content, and then edited them later.

So for Liu Yifei, this process was just looking at the empty window in front of her and performing a one-man show in front of her mobile phone. She felt shocked and terrified.

"Yifei, don't open your eyes so wide!

Which teacher taught you that being frightened means staring? Come again! "

……

"Dad, they caught her!"

"Click!

Yifei, I told you to control your expression. I'm not telling you not to show any expression. You are in a foreign country now. Your friend was caught by a stranger who broke in. You are also in danger. You have to show fear!"

……

"Crack!"

"Come on, Yifei, come over here and see your performance!"

Liu Yifei lowered her head, ran quickly to Wang Hao's side, and looked at the surveillance monitor in front of her.

In the playback footage on the monitor, Liu Yifei clearly saw that her expression was very stiff. It looked like she was crying and laughing at the same time, which was very strange.

This made her very embarrassed.

"Sorry, director."

Wang Hao looked at Liu Yifei who kept apologizing, but asked, "Do you know how to act terrified and scared?"

This question made Liu Yifei stunned for a moment. At this time, her mother Liu Xiaoli came closer and seemed to want to say something, but Wang Hao stretched out his hand and pointed outside.

"This is a filming location, Ms. Liu, please leave!"

His voice was not loud and his tone was steady, just like he was speaking normally.

However, there was a strong pressure in it that did not allow for any objection, which made Liu Xiaoli subconsciously shut her mouth.

But she was not a child after all, so she did not leave immediately after Wang Hao said that.

Wang Hao just kept looking at her, and the atmosphere at the scene suddenly froze.

It was in this atmosphere that Liu Yifei lowered her head, glanced at Wang Hao, and then tugged at the corner of her mother's clothes.

"Mom, I'm filming here!"

Seeing Liu Xiaoli reluctantly leaving the scene, Wang Hao continued to ask, "Do you know how to act scared or frightened? I remember you taught this in the performance department, right?"

"Ah... I've been taught. The teacher said I should frown, open my eyes wide, and purse my lips..."

The way Liu Yifei answered hesitantly and hesitantly was just like a student who was called upon by the teacher to answer a question.

When Wang Hao saw her like this, he felt helpless.

It’s no wonder that this girl won’t have many good film resources in the future.

Not to mention his acting talent, he didn't study hard when he was most suitable for learning, and just pursued filming, and the ones he filmed were TV dramas, which don't require high acting skills.

After the filming of the drama was completed, I didn’t know how to make up for the missed acting courses. Now it’s really difficult to deal with.

It's a difficult matter but she has to do it, after all, she is the "heroine".

And as a director, training actors is also part of my job.

"Do you know how to act? Then look at your expression, does it meet the requirements you mentioned?" Wang Hao pointed at the monitor in front of him.

Liu Yifei watched her own performance, speechless.

In fact, she really didn't do that on purpose. After all, who doesn't want to film a scene well and get it right in one take?

It is indeed not a good experience to have the filming progress of the movie delayed because of my own reasons.

Especially since she is a star after all, and she has been rejected again and again by Wang Hao, other staff members in the crew have started whispering about her, which makes people even more uncomfortable.

However, no matter how hard she tried, no matter how much she wanted to prove herself, when she actually performed, the result was completely different from what she expected.

This is completely different from when she filmed TV series and movies before. It's not that Liu Yifei has never acted in movies. Last year she participated in the Sino-US co-production blockbuster "The Forbidden Kingdom".

But in that movie, the character she played, Jin Yanzi, had more action scenes, and the parts that really required acting skills were, if not none, then very few.

Now that she has joined the crew of "Taken", she discovered that her performance was so bad that she even won five crowns when the camera was pointed at her face.

"Director, I...I'm sorry...I..."

Liu Yifei lowered her head, her voice sounding like crying, and she seemed to be very depressed.

"That's not how you act!"

Wang Hao sighed inwardly, knowing that he could not put any more pressure on this girl.

Just recently, before Liu Yifei came to Paris to film, her movie "The Forbidden Kingdom" was released.

The performance of the movie was not very ideal, and because Liu Yifei has now signed with a Hollywood film and television company, her reputation in China is not very good, and many entertainment media are criticizing her.

Liu Yifei is probably at the lowest point in her life right now. If Wang Hao continues to put pressure on her, he is really afraid that this girl will collapse.

So he let the crew members take a break first, and then he gave Liu Yifei a detailed lesson.

“I believe your acting teacher must have taught you about emotional expression in class, and I also believe you must have done homework on this topic.

But classes are classes, and filming is filming.

The performance in class is fragmented, but the movie is coherent and has a chain of emotions.

You can't just follow the contents of the textbook verbatim.

That's imitating, not acting, you know?"

Liu Yifei nodded when she heard this, and seemed to be listening very seriously. However, Wang Hao could still see from her clear and stupid eyes that she didn't fully understand at all.

This is normal. The acting director is not a cheat. The homework that Liu Yifei owes cannot be made up in a short period of time.

"Anyway, remember these few points:

1. Don’t act out the results, act out the process.

2. Don’t act it forward, act it backward.

3. Don’t act, react physiologically.”
