Jing Tian's progress is not very fast. There are many characters in "Si Teng" and she can't get them all in a short while.

Moreover, Cheng Shuo didn't give any suggestions on casting. Except for Si Teng, no one else in this drama had high-profile scenes.

On the contrary, the progress of "White Night Chase" is advancing very quickly.

These people are already very familiar with each other, and there is no need for any time to get used to it. They completed the launch conference here and were ready to start filming the next day.

Without Cheng Shuo "making trouble", Liu Yingjian can finally choose a director's chair of his own.

In the first scene, he still handed over the role to Cheng Shuo.

After all, we are one of our own, so it’s easy to take pictures.

Although he knew that this scene was not difficult for Cheng Shuo, Liu Yingjian still had to put on a show.

"Cheng Shuo, your character design needs to be consistent, and the two brothers wear the same clothes most of the time in the play. You should think carefully about how to make people tell that they are two people at a glance."

"Got it, let's get started."

Liu Yingjian nodded with satisfaction and said nothing more.

This script was written by Cheng Shuo, so how could it not be good at acting?

There were quite a lot of people watching at the scene. After all, it is quite rare for one person to play two roles in the same shot.

"are you ready?"

Cheng Shuo nodded to the stuntman, and then made an OK gesture to Liu Yingjian.

"start."

This scene takes place in the bathroom, with the two brothers facing a mirror.

This mirror is very cleverly used. From a plot perspective, the identity replacement between the two people can be presented through the reflection of the mirror. From a shooting technique, this expression method can make the emotion of the identity replacement between the two people progress.

From Liu Yingjian's point of view, this shot is very good at showing off his skills.

As we all know, shooting in the mirror has always been a big problem. After all, when shooting in the mirror, the camera can easily appear on the mirror.

There are generally four ways to solve it.

The first way is the simplest, just ask a pair of twins to act in front of the frame, or extend it to something called true and false starring method.

No human face appears in front of the camera, a stuntman is used to perform, and the real starring role is behind the "mirror". The two people's movements are synchronized to show the scene effect.

The second type, which has a bit of a technical threshold, is cutout.

The third method is the most commonly used, using a tilt-shift lens to offset the lens so that the camera body does not appear on the mirror surface.

The last method, which is the method used by Liu Yingjian, simply uses mirror reflection and shoots from the side angle.

It sounds simple, but in actual shooting there are many factors to consider.

First of all, the space in this bathroom is not very big, Cheng Shuo and the stuntman took up most of the space.

Coupled with the two cameras, the entire space seemed particularly cramped.

Small space means that the portrait in the picture is relatively large.

Cheng Shuo could only try to control the width of his body to prevent the painting from being out of place if he made a slightly larger movement.

"Is my case in Zhou Xun's hands?"

There was no unnecessary expression on Cheng Shuo's face, but he blinked very quickly and his eyesight flickered up and down, giving people a feeling of frivolity.

Looking in the mirror and looking at the scars on his face, there was a hint of caution in his eyes.

His performance was very serious, but the stuntman beside him was not so serious.

The stuntman was dressed in green and matched with Cheng Shuo's reaction, which made people laugh just by looking at it.

"Brother, your phobia of the dark needs to be cured as soon as possible."

When Cheng Shuo was reciting his lines, his head was nodding along with the emphasis, as if he was adding strength to his words.

In front of the monitor, what Liu Yingjian saw was the most realistic.

After just one meeting, he felt the image of Guan Hongyu in the script coming to his face.

Flirty, out-of-the-box, lively.

Onlookers didn't think anything of it, but Liu Yingjian couldn't help but applaud Cheng Shuo.

What they saw was only Cheng Shuo himself performing hard against the actor in the suit, while Liu Yingjian had already seen the scenes of two Cheng Shuo acting opposite each other.

"Okay! Change positions."

Cheng Shuo twisted his neck to make himself more relaxed.

After changing directions, Cheng Shuo returned to battle.

"it's dark."

Reading different lines, Cheng Shuo's state was completely different from before.

The corners of his mouth turned downward, his voice was dull, and his eyes focused.

It was completely the opposite of the frivolous look he had just now, and every word he spoke ended with a sigh.

"Don't worry about me."

"Card!"

"pretty!"

"Wow, the acting is so good, they are just two people."

It wasn't until the character of Guan Hongfeng was presented and everyone flocked to the monitor to watch it from beginning to end that they realized how many details were included in Cheng Shuo's seemingly simple performance.

It was clear that no excessive force was used, but the two characters were separated with ease.

Liu Yingjian laughed heartily and got a good start in the first scene, which made him feel excited.

Although he has worked with Cheng Shuo countless times, every time he admires Cheng Shuo's performance from the bottom of his heart.

How do you get this brain?

Besides, can he share his performance level with these heroines a little bit?

Thinking of this, Liu Yingjian's eyes lit up instantly.

It doesn't seem impossible. Although bringing people into the scene is a problem for many actors, for Cheng Shuo, this is not a problem.

In other words, when facing these actresses, Cheng Shuo's "Instruction Manual" can always help them understand the characters more deeply.

"Cheng Shuo, you also have a bit of a role when you are off-screen."

Cheng Shuo was confused by Liu Yingjian's words and gave him a blank look.

He is following an evil path, and there is no such thing as being alone in and out of the play.

A bit like an expressionist, but more generally he just constructs a performance idea in his mind and then performs along this idea.

Therefore, it is not difficult for him to enter and exit the play.

This is the result of a long period of acting experience. Those bad movies in my previous life were not in vain.

Putting his arms around Cheng Shuo's shoulders, Liu Yingjian lowered his voice and pouted at Liu Shishi and others, "Bring them into the role."

"You want me to cosplay?"

Liu Yingjian nodded, "It's just a drama, you work hard. Besides, your instruction manual is not passive, it has to be released actively, so you should release it actively as soon as possible."

During the pre-production of the previous film "The Invisible Guardian", Cheng Shuo was busy with preparations and lacked guidance for the heroines.

It took continuous guidance, talking about the characters, and writing theme songs to help them integrate into the characters. Now Liu Yingjian really wants to advance the progress.

"correct."

Liu Yingjian patted his forehead and said, "I edited the section just now and released it as a preview."

"So early?"

"It's getting late." Liu Yingjian sighed, "This drama was filmed in two locations. It was filmed in two months. Post-production lasted for three months. We will meet at the end of the year. If we promote it early, we might even be able to win the Feitian Award.

.”

"Feitian Award? You have a big heart."

"Don't be too ambitious. When the time comes, I will win the Best Director award and you will be treated as the emperor. Our company will become bigger and stronger and create greater glory."
