Huayu since 1980

Chapter 224 Teacher Wu (4000+ chapters, please subscribe~)

Time has entered September, my mother has returned to her hometown, and the Yanjing Film Academy has started. However, since Wu Jianye is a teaching assistant in the advanced class, the advanced class has not yet started recruiting students, so Wu Jianye is relatively leisurely at school now.

Unlike Zhang Huijun, Mu Deyuan, and Xie Yuan who stayed in school, they have already started to work intensely. The transition from students to teaching assistants made them very nervous at the beginning, but it was precisely to cover up their own This kind of tension makes them very strict, which leads to a bad initial impression of themselves in the hearts of students.

However, among the students staying at the school, Wu Jianye has rich shooting experience, so many times, he will be called over by teachers from other departments to chat with the students and pass on his own experience by the way. Jianye naturally has no objection to this.

For example, today, Wu Jianye was called to Xiaoxitian by teacher Lin Hongtong to teach some of his experience in filming to the acting students.

"Why haven't I heard any news about you in Zhu Xinzhuang recently?" Xie Huan happily patted Wu Jianye after seeing him.

Zhou Lijing next to him also smiled and nodded with Wu Jianye.

Xie Yuan and Zhou Lijing are both staying students of the Department of Acting, but Zhou Lijing's personality is a bit dull. Even if he went to Xiangjiang back then, the relationship between Wu Jianye and him is not as close as Xie Yuan.

"It's different now. We used to be students. No matter what we did, the teacher would take some responsibility. Now that we have become teaching assistants, we can't be so lawless anymore!" Wu Jianye said with a smile.

As he said, when you were a student, the teachers would appreciate you because of your talent, and then they would not pay too much attention to some of your outrageous performances in private, but now it is different, as a human being Master, you still have to pay attention to your own image.

Xie Yuan and Zhou Lijing nodded in sympathy.

"But having said that, I really didn't expect that you could calm down and study abroad in school." Xie Yuan said.

"What's unexpected about this, we are a brick of the revolution, we can move it wherever we need it!" Wu Jianye was as upright as ever.

"If I hadn't known you a long time ago, I would have believed you!" Xie Yuan laughed out loud, and Zhou Lijing next to him also smiled slightly.

Wu Jianye was talking and laughing with Xie Yuan and Zhou Lijing here. Some passing students were also curious after seeing this, and asked who this young man was.

"Wu Jianye! Haven't you watched "The Peacock Princess" and "Under the Bridge"? They both starred in him, and he is also the screenwriter!" A young girl with a simple ponytail said while holding a book .

"He is Wu Jianye. It seems that I haven't heard from him after filming "Under the Bridge". I didn't expect to see him in school. I don't know what he is here for this time!" The boy said in a naive manner.

"Have you checked the course schedule? Wu Jianye is the one who explained our acting class today, and now he is a teacher in our college!" out of the classroom.

Wu Jian Yechang was on the podium, looking at the dozen or so students in the audience, with a faint smile on his face. Although the performance department students this year are not as star-studded as the performance department of class 78, there are quite a few students , and became famous later.

For example, Zang Jinsheng who played Lu Zhishen in CCTV's "Water Margin", Lin Fangbing who played Concubine Yang in "Tang Minghuang", and Zhang Xiaolin who played Ji Fa in "Feng Shen Bang" are all students of this year's film academy.

"Hi everyone, I'm Wu Jianye, and I'm the teacher of today's class." Wu Jianye wrote his name on the blackboard, then turned around and made a joke with everyone: "Don't be nervous, you are It’s my first time as a college student, and it’s also my first time as a teacher, let’s learn from each other!”

"Ha ha!"

The students in the audience laughed, feeling that Wu Jianye was a little different from the previous teaching assistants.

"Everyone knows that what I studied in school was not an acting major, but an art major. Although I starred in two plays later, my theoretical knowledge is definitely not as good as Xie Yuan. Zhou Lijing and the others are so professional. Now the two of them are sitting together. In the following, I will not talk about these theoretical knowledge, so as to save the class, the two of them will come to make fun of me again!"

"Ha ha!"

When everyone heard Wu Jianye's straightforward expression, they laughed again, feeling that Wu Jianye was more interesting, but Xie Yuan and Zhou Lijing who were sitting in the audience smiled wryly. Make fun of them both.

"Film performance is also known as the momentary art in front of the camera. That is to say, the camera will be the camera that everyone will deal with the most in the future, so I think an actor must understand the camera and the movement principle of the camera, otherwise you just want to be in front of the camera. If you can't find a camera to express yourself, isn't that useless!"

The crowd laughed again.

"In cinematic performance, the actor has two spheres of physical space: an inner circle around the actor marked by the camera lens, and an outer circle in which the actor is captured, perhaps as part of the scene and background Actors must perform within these two ranges of motion. For example: in the profile shot of three people, the actors must be still and close to each other, and the actors must pause when they speak so that the camera has time Make action conversion and focal length conversion. Film is a kind of imaging technology. The most difficult quality for an actor to obtain in front of such a complex and changeable camera is the slackness of the pillars of film performance. The lens needs to be controlled by people, and the camera needs to be controlled by the photographer. The space of the shot and the overall grasp of the picture. Every angle of the camera will cause the composition to develop and change in the space in which the action takes place. Then the actors will cooperate with the energy of the camera to change the feeling and adapt their behavior to establish mood and atmosphere”

Standing on the stage, Wu Jianye talked eloquently, and later took the two movies "Peacock Princess" and "Under the Bridge" he starred in as examples.

"In my opinion, the characters in the movie are virtual to the audience, but to our actors themselves, he should be real, whether it is a movie, a protagonist in TV, or a supporting role, even if he only appears in one shot , but in the heart of the actor himself, he should be a real person. As an actor, you need to know the life experience of the character you play. These experiences can be recorded in your script Yes, it can also be based on your own understanding, the experience you wrote after communicating with the director and screenwriter, only with this kind of experience can you make the characters you play real."

After class, many students gathered around Wu Jianye and raised their questions.

"Teacher, how should we specifically discover the life experiences of movie characters?"

"That's why before the filming starts, there will be experience of life. After you get a script, you have to do research based on the location and historical background of the story in the script, and talk to the locals to know what happened here. For the story, try to find a character image that fits the role when talking with fellow villagers, find a few more, synthesize it, find what you need, and eliminate some unnecessary branches and leaves.”

"Then teacher, the movie Zhao Shutun you played before is fundamentally a historical myth drama. What should we do when we encounter such a theme?"

"Read more, I have told many people that this movie is actually a story born out of the myths of the Dai people. Whether it is Zhaoshutun or Nanmu Ruona, they all have prototypes in the myths of the Dai people. , When we go to the local area to experience life, we can chat with the local old people, check the information, and know the story of the Dai royal family in ancient times. By sorting out these materials, you can have a more thorough understanding of this role.”

"teacher"

"Okay, get out of class is over now, you can ask Teacher Wu again when you have a chance in the future!"

Seeing that everyone had more and more questions, Xie Yuan immediately stepped forward to stop them, and many students left with pouts.

Seeing that the students had all left at night, Wu Jianye smiled and said to Xie Yuan, "Thank you!"

Xie Yuan approached Wu Jianye and said with a smile, "Then how are you going to thank us?"

"Everyone is a revolutionary friendship, isn't material gratitude too vulgar!" Wu Jianye joked.

Xie Yuan was unmoved at all, and said with a smile, "I heard from Zhou Lijing that you brought back a lot of movie videos when you came back from Xiangjiang. How about it, you can't just hide at home and enjoy it!"

When Wu Jianye heard that it was such a thing, he smiled and said, "What am I supposed to do? That's all. It's all at home. If you want to see it, go and get it!"

"I didn't have a place to look after I took it, do you have a place?" Xie Yuan asked.

"Yes!" Wu Jianye was not polite, "You are welcome anytime!"

"That's interesting! Let's go there together after school!" Xie Yuan said with a smile.

"Okay!" Wu Jianye readily agreed. Anyway, he has nothing to do during this period of time. My mother has returned to her hometown, Yanwen has gone to Xiangjiang, Zhao Lei has not returned from Pengcheng, and Zhu Zhu has now joined the group to start filming "Xizhao Street" "Okay, it's boring to be alone at home every day.

When school was over in the afternoon, Xie Yuan and Zhou Lijing went back to the courtyard with Wu Jianye.

At this time, Wu Jianye has completely transformed a wing room into a movie viewing room. The three rows of bookshelves and the piles on the floor are all classic movie videos from various countries.

After Xie Yuan came here, he immediately exclaimed: "Old Wu, where did you get so many video tapes, and they are still color TVs?"

Zhou Lijing was also surprised. When he came back from Xiangjiang, he did see that Wu Jianye brought back a lot of video tapes, but it is impossible to have so many, let alone a color TV?
In fact, Wu Jianye asked Zhou Tao to buy these things in Xiangjiang, got them to Pengcheng, and then personally mobilized the delivery truck of Pengcheng Splendid Garments to deliver them. More than the money for these tapes.

This is also thanks to the fact that the development of Jinxiu Garments has been growing in the past two years, especially after Wu Jianye and Zhou Tao invested a sum of money based on their shares in the garment factory this year.

The TV was turned on, and the English version of the 1978 Italian film "The Clog Tree" was playing.

"Can you understand?" Wu Jianye asked curiously. It's not that Wu Jianye looked down on Xie Yuan and Zhou Lijing, but that many people really don't understand this.

"Look at the screen, watch the performance!" Xie Yuan said comfortably while sitting on the sofa.

"have to!"

Wu Jianye didn't say anything more.

"By the way, Old Wu, have you written the script recently?" Xie Yuan asked while watching the movie.

"No, the school has just started, things are relatively busy, and there is no time!" Wu Jianye said, he had a few thoughts in his mind, but he hadn't really started writing until now.

It was rare for Zhou Lijing to take the initiative to say: "There are quite a few studios staring at you now!"

Wu Jianye was slightly taken aback, "What do you mean?"

"What else can you say? I want to see what you plan to write in your third work. "The Peacock Princess" and "Under the Bridge" have both achieved success. This year's Golden Rooster Award "Peacock Princess" won the best stunt award "Under the Bridge" is even more powerful. It won the Excellent Story Award of the Ministry of Culture this year. The heroine Gong Xi was nominated for the double best actress of the Golden Rooster Award and the Hundred Flowers Award. I heard that the film has been selected for the Golden Lion of the Venice Film Festival Award nominated!"

Xie Yuan snapped his fingers and told Wu Jianye the honors won by the two films.

Zhou Lijing looked at the ignorant Wu Jianye, and looked at him suspiciously: "You don't know all these things, do you?"

Wu Jianye shook his head and said, "Of course I know, but now it's just a nomination, not an award."

"Such a result is already very good. You must know that you have only written two films, and both films have been nominated for awards. With such a result, how could the studio let you go!" Xie Yuan said.

"By the way, when will the Golden Rooster Award and the Hundred Flowers Award be drawn?" Wu Jianye asked.

"Next month!" Zhou Lijing said.

"Oh!" Wu Jianye nodded. The current Golden Rooster Award and the Hundred Flowers Award were held at the same time and at the same place, which also paved the way for the merger of the two awards.

However, Wu Jianye is also very curious about the awards for Best Actress this time. This year, not only "Under the Bridge" was released two years in advance, but also the award-winning "Xu Mao and His Daughters". Li Xiuming was nominated.

In the original history, it was Li Xiuming who won this year's Golden Rooster Award and the Hundred Flowers Award's double best actress, while Gong Xi won the 1984 Golden Rooster Award and the Hundred Flowers Award double best actress for his role as Qin Nan in "Under the Bridge"!
Now because of Wu Jianye's appearance, these two films appeared at the same time and participated in the selection at the same time, which really made Wu Jianye a little curious.
