Entertaining Children

Of course, Zhao Tao would not believe that Xiao Yao was really crazy after a phone call from Zhao Rui. Anyway, Ye Jiaying was still on the set, even if Xiao Yao really wanted to inform Xiao Siqi of something, it would not be his turn to go through the circle of their father and son, let alone Zhao Rui's obvious emotions on the phone.

After asking the whole story, Zhao Tao instead began to use Xiao Yao's affairs to educate Zhao Ruilai.

"Although you have acted for several years, the volume is quite a lot. But if you really want to put your heart and soul into filming, you are really not as good as Bayi." Zhao Tao said on the phone: "Experience I haven’t told you about the role, digging out the prescribed situation, right? There’s a saying in Beijing opera that if you’re not crazy, you can’t survive. In fact, it’s the same in our industry. Of course, Bayi is a monster, even among our grown-up actors, he can’t survive. Few people can do what he does for a role. I don’t blame you if you can’t do what Bayi did now, but at least you have to put your mentality right. You have to look at others with a learning attitude, not Call me and tell him he's crazy."

The most authoritative director in the crew never stopped Xiao Yao, but watched him making trouble every day with a smile, so it was hard for others to say anything. After spending almost a week of adaptation period, everyone gradually discovered that this kind of Xiao Yao didn't seem to be so difficult to get along with.

In fact, to put it bluntly, Xiao Yao just brought "Chengying"'s character and way of dealing with the world to life, but he didn't really become "Chengying" completely.

That is an ancient character who doesn't even know what a camera is. If Xiao Yao completely becomes "Chengying", how can he still film? As far as the character and behavior of the character "Chengying" is concerned, it is actually the most likable character in the whole play, so why can't everyone take Xiao Yao as a modern version of "Chengying" for the time being? is it? That is to say, everyone has never seen filming like this before, and they are just not used to it for a while.

After everyone accepted Xiao Yao's "shadow bearing" behavior in life, everyone began to marvel at how Xiao Yao was able to stay in the shadow bearing state for such a long time. It's just a character in the script, a fictional character, and it's definitely not an easy task to keep his behavior in every moment in line with "Chengying".

Therefore, Chen Xiaoting thought of the seven or eight pages of unfinished biography that Xiao Yao saw in his hotel room the night before the filming of the scene started. No wonder he said that he couldn't help himself solve the problem after the filming started. It turned out that he was already making preparations to turn himself into "Cheng Ying" after the filming started.

And after Chen Xiaoting spread the news about Xiao Yao's preparation of the biography, Su Chengying also remembered the so-called "Secrets of the Best Actor" that Xiao Yao told him a few years ago, and only then did he realize that he was not just talking, but really dry.

However, the biggest reason for people in the crew to accept Xiao Yao's acting method is because it is indeed effective. Otherwise, no matter how good your theory is, if you actually make a mess or have no effect, it can only be regarded as a crazy nonsense.

Xiao Yao is acting for the first time as a rookie, but the number of NGs during the shooting process is very small. Even if there are, most of them are due to the deviation between the position of the station or the orientation of the face and the orientation of the camera or the lens.

After all, he didn’t have a camera when he was acting in dramas back then. Reality shows were followed by filming, and variety shows basically only faced the audience in one direction, so he didn’t need to consider the camera’s position. He really didn’t have any experience in this area. However, he has a strong learning ability. After a few days of shooting, he basically lost even this kind of NG. He acted well and filmed smoothly, so the crew naturally wouldn't say much about his abnormal behavior.

However, this method of experiencing characters is very helpful for filming literary dramas, but it is very limited for filming martial arts dramas. Especially although his physical fitness is very good,

However, the Shaolin Changquan and Bajiquan he learned are both tough and fierce, which are not consistent with the agile and elegant martial arts of "Chengying". Many movements are not smooth, which also brought him a lot of trouble.

Generally speaking, the shooting order of TV series is basically in accordance with the order of the plot, but it is not absolute.

In this play, there are many martial arts scenes that need to use wires, so the fighting scenes are relatively concentrated in the later filming. One is to reduce the number of disassembly of wires as much as possible and improve shooting efficiency. , It is also to give time for the actors to better get acquainted and understand each other, so as to avoid accidental injuries during the filming of the scene as much as possible. Therefore, the problems Xiao Yao encountered in filming and fighting scenes were only exposed at a relatively late time.

Xiao Yao is not omniscient, and he did not expect this problem before.

Originally, he thought that with his physical fitness, it would not be difficult to perform the movements according to the requirements of the martial arts instructor. But after actually trying it out, I found out that after more than ten years of hard-core boxing practice, he already has a considerable degree of muscle memory, and he feels awkward how to do those elegant movements.

This is just a matter of action style, not counting that he has no experience in hanging wire. After being hoisted into the air by Wia, not everyone has experienced the feeling of having no roots on the feet and unreliable limbs. In this case, how to maintain his figure, and even complete some designated actions is also a problem he needs to solve.

Using a stand-in is a solution, but the director doesn't want to use it until it really doesn't work, otherwise the physical fitness will not be a focus of the director's inspection when selecting actors. For Xiao Yao, using a substitute means some kind of failure for himself, and he is even more unwilling. So he had to find a way to solve these problems.

The problem of hanging wire is not difficult to solve.

The reason is simple, that is, lack of experience. The solution is also very simple, that is, to hang it several times and for a longer period of time each time. The big deal is to ask Wu Xing and the masters who operate the wires to help him and give him a small stove so that he has no scenes to shoot, and the wires just let him practice a few more times when the wires are empty.

As for the hard work of practicing too much, even wearing a belt for a long time and wearing the waist and abdomen, it is nothing to Xiao Yao who has practiced martial arts for many years and has adult thinking and willpower.

Xiao Yao gave himself additional training in order to have better results when filming, and the time he chose was free time that would not affect normal filming. The director would definitely not object, and Master Wu Xing and Wia would naturally not make things difficult. What's more, Xiao Yao was very sensible and generous to personally give them red envelopes as compensation for taking up their private rest time.

Speaking of which, this is also a serious matter in the crew, and the masters were a little embarrassed to accept Xiao Yao's red envelopes, but Xiao Yao stood in front of them with that cute expression of "Cheng Ying", staring at Xiao Yao with puffy cheeks. Looking at them, as if I would be angry and trouble you if you don’t accept them, the masters happily accepted them.

The problem of hanging wire is solved, but the problem of action style is not easy to solve.

Muscle memory is something that has been accumulated over the years. Like a human habit, it is difficult to change in a short time. But even if it is difficult, Xiao Yao can only work hard to change it. To change a person's habit of doing something in a short period of time, it is usually to do that thing in a different way in a short period of time, and use a large amount of short-term accumulation to offset the previously formed behavioral inertia.

Xiao Yao also uses this method to change his action style. But what he had learned before was tough boxing, and for a while, he had no place to learn another kind of elegant and agile boxing.

Quite a few of the crew’s martial arts instructors and martial artists have learned martial arts, but you can ask them to design a few smart and elegant movements, but it’s difficult to come up with a whole set of sustainable movements. Xiao Yao also thought of practicing those few movements alone, but fluency is also a characteristic of being agile and elegant. If there are only a few movements, it will be done in ten seconds. When repeating, there will inevitably be a pause in the middle, and the awkward feeling will return. .

In desperation, Xiao Yao remembered a sport that he had seen countless related videos in his previous life but had never tried, parkour.

Parkour can be regarded as a kind of extreme sports, and it generally uses some special scenes in daily urban life as the sports venues. There are no established rules and movements in this sport. It just uses various architectural terrains and facilities in life as obstacles or aids, and walks through this environment by running, jumping, and crossing.

The characteristics of this kind of movement are fast, flexible, agile, and very ornamental, which just meets Xiao Yao's current requirements for smoothness, agility, and elegance.

The plot of "Ling Yunzhi" involves a lot of content from temples to rivers and lakes, and the scenes are also very complicated. For this reason, the crew also contracted a large area of ​​the film and television base, which includes a variety of ancient buildings and various scene facilities. Whether it is obstacles or auxiliary facilities, they can be seen everywhere, used for parkour, terrain The conditions are just right.

Therefore, every break time, you can often see a figure scurrying around in various places on the set of the crew.

When he started practicing on the first day, Xiao Yao chose a road on the surface of an ancient street that was rarely used.

Xiao Yao started running from one end of the street. When he saw a wooden frame with some trinkets hanging on one side of the street, he jumped up and jumped over. After his feet landed firmly, he found that the whole person stopped.

The forward momentum is gone, and the coherence is gone. Xiao Yao shook his head and had to start all over again.

Going through all the movements in the parkour videos he had seen in his previous life in his mind, Xiao Yao returned to the starting point he had set and started again.

This time, Xiao Yao kept his center of gravity forward after jumping over the booth, and did not stop after his feet hit the ground. Instead, he followed the forward momentum, rolled his body forward on the ground, and then continued to stand. Get together and continue to run forward, this time, it really is much smoother.

Then the second obstacle appeared was a stall with a relatively flat surface. I don’t know if it was used to sell vegetables, cooked food, or cloth. It is not during filming, there are no props on it, and it is placed like a table. on the street.

This time Xiao Yao decided to change the method. After rushing to the front, he jumped up and threw himself forward flat. The whole person was required to pass over the stall, but the height of his feet was not raised enough, and the feet hooked to the side edge of the stall. Not only did the whole person fall forward and fell to the ground, but even the stall was brought down by him. up.

Fortunately, Xiao Yao knew that this was his first time doing it. He wore protective measures such as gloves, elbow pads and knee pads.

Gritting his teeth, Xiao Yao insisted on standing up, helped up the stall he knocked down, and slowly walked back to the starting point he set at the end of the street. This time he secretly reminded himself that he must pay attention to the accuracy of movements and the height of the jump. Then, he started the third attempt...

Xiao Yao, who didn't have to film this day, spent the whole day competing with all the obstacles on this street. When he returned to the hotel at night, he felt more tired than hanging on the wire all day. But what made him feel gratified was that every time he fell, his reaction was not bad, and he controlled his body to land on the place where he was wearing the protective gear, and there were no scratches on his arms and legs.

Although tired, he has a strong learning ability and the effect is obvious after the day. At least for the last few trips, he was able to run that street without hindrance.

On the second and third days, Xiao Yao still ran on the street, but in order to avoid his own inertia and strengthen his flexibility and on-the-spot reaction, he changed to two different streets in these two days.

On the fourth day, Xiao Yao started to use the pillars to jump up to the second floor of the restaurant facing the street.
