- Saturday, January 21st, was the day when a much-anticipated casting event, the ¡°VIY Draft¡±, kicked off. Lewen
Three film projects and ten casting candidates for nine girl roles will be born from them:
"Soul Surfer": Bethany Hamilton, Alanna Blanchard
"The Lovely Bones": Susie Salmon, Lindsey Salmon's Little and Old Girlhood, Ruth Connors, Hallie (Asian), Clarissa
"Winter's Bone": Ray Dolly, Gayle Lockran
Three protagonists: Bethany, Susie, Rui
Three supporting roles: Alanna, Lindsey, and Gail
Three minor supporting roles: Ruth, Hallie, Clarissa
As for other possible candidates for girl roles and supporting roles in the future, viy has already said that his casting team will give priority to the girls from the talent show.
Who will be the ten young actresses? star? Star II? Small role? Newcomer?
Even before the decision has been made, the media has already published titles such as "They are the future", "Hollywood's new power", "viy girls", etc. This is no exaggeration at all. Judging from Rob, Dobrev, and Breslin, it is impossible for Ye Wei to select ten mediocre people.
Even a mediocre person will become a talent if he stands next to a talented kid. Even if he doesn't succeed, he will be famous for a while. Just look at Maudie Symington.
¡¡
On this day, Emma Roberts woke up very early. She didn¡¯t sleep well last night, but she wasn¡¯t sleepy at all. She was just excited and nervous, which was more serious than any exam in the past.
I don¡¯t want to disappoint Wei! Can¡¯t get nothing! Thinking back to the day when they first met and got to know each other, she didn't want to cooperate with Wei at first. Now she dreams about winning "Susie" last night and kissing Wei on the set. She woke up just as they were about to kiss.
Because he suddenly said, "What's wrong with your eyeballs?" No problem! After half a month of hard training, you will see the results today.
Emma knows that she has many advantages. For example, if she has any questions about the rules and procedures of the draft, she can directly ask viy. But he's been so busy lately, and it's definitely like this that he's deliberately ruthless in order to push her forward. So I asked Master Gia.
The selection of resumes was much stricter than outsiders imagined. More than 30,000 people were eliminated, not counting those who were not in Los Angeles. Only 1,200 people were shortlisted. Interviews were divided into two days, with 600 people on each day.
The interview location is "Santa-Monica-Screening" on 14th Street in Santa Monica. The interview times are:
8:00-12:30 am
13:00-18:00 pm
19:00-21:30 in the evening
viy is really a big deal. The Santa Monica Screening theater venue is not open on weekends, but it rented it to him for two days and almost paid him the advertising fee.
A casting event can attract commercial sponsorship. Very few people have this value. But Gia said that the merchants who wanted to sponsor Wei lined up. All they had to do for the casting event was to set up a photography background board with logos on it, called The last group of reporters were followed by people like Wei, Emma Watson, Nina, and she.
Wei refused all of them, but accepted sponsorship from several brokerage companies such as CAA and allowed them to send agents to watch the show live. Therefore, the draft was not only zero-cost but also profitable.
Gia said that this draft will be based on three projects, and the cost will not be included in the budget of any project. The budget and investment for the three projects have not yet been determined, so this cannot be calculated. Strictly speaking, this is not a project casting audition, it is just a talent show.
Drafts are different from casting. In fact, it is normal for actors to participate in private auditions and pay fees, because the organizer invites agents, casting directors, and producers to attend. That is their business. You have to show up to recognize people. If you have a chance, buy a ticket.
This is often a legal scam. For example, she also holds an "Emma Roberts Talent Show" or a sorority party. Anyone who wants to participate has to pay a thousand dollars, and Ye Wei will attend! If you have the opportunity to chat with Ye Wei, you may be favored by him or recommended to other big shots.
Ye Wei will attend because he will receive an appearance fee of 10,000 US dollars. He is responsible for making those actors happy and saying, "You are good, you are excellent, and you are promising."
But for those who want to make money through this and regardless of their reputation, it is actually impossible to give anyone any opportunities. They all need opportunities.
Will viy care about the 10,000 yuan? Everyone knows how generous he is to the deceived girls. No one is required to pay a penny to attend the draft, but no lunch or dinner will be provided.
Emma didn¡¯t know much about this before. This is her first time participating in the talent show, and it may also be the last time, unless viy does it a second time.
Two days, a total of 12 hours a day, every hour?Take 10 minutes of rest and relaxation, and the remaining 50 minutes to complete 5 sets of interviews, each set of 10 minutes.
The 1,200 girls have been divided into 120 groups, each with a number and interview time. Gia said that the appearance types of each group of 10 girls are basically different, some are sweet, some are sexy, some are elegantall are arranged by the casting team to make everyone more conspicuous.
Emma is in Group 12, number 115, and the interview time is 10:20-10:30 this morning.
Although the selection method has been announced along with the shortlist notice, she knows more details.
The judges are composed of Ye Wei and three casting directors Ivy Kaufman, Randy Schiller, and Sarah Harley Finn; Alice Sebold and Bethany¡¯s team will also be present. For reference, Siebold has co-determination rights for "Susie."
Each of the four judges has a score sheet for each group, like this:
Number¡ªname¡ªperforming age¡ªethnicity¡ªeye color¡ªhair color¡ªheight¡ªappearance score¡ªperformance score¡ªprofessionalism¡ªunderstanding¡ªreaction¡ªsuitability for the role¡ªremarks
115¡ªEmma Roberts¡ª13-17¡ªWhite¡ªGreen Black¡ªGold¡ª5¡¯0¡± (152cm)
The first items are information, and the following items are ratings.
The appearance score is a comprehensive consideration of appearance, body shape, temperament, characteristics, plasticity, etc., with a perfect score of 100 points. Because it is not a specific casting, this is more like a beauty pageant, it is entirely the judges' idea, but those with a sharp eye have this ability to see who is good-looking and who is not. Actors are not models.
Performance points are based on performance in the talent show, including facial performance, body movements, voice, etc., with a full score of 100 points.
The degree of professionalism is all up to you. Before each group of ten people go on stage, they will complete a questionnaire and choose to answer five professional questions, such as "A scene has been completed, but the director did not call cut. What should you do? a: Stop where you started. ground, b: shout cut yourself, c: keep improvising, d: play it again.¡±
Of course she knows she has to choose c, but there will really be people who choose other choices, and the problem will not be that simple.
The professionalism here refers to the professionalism of screen performance. Some people may be good at acting, but have never acted or understood film and television shooting. In that case, they will not get high scores.
The full score is 100 points, and each question is 20 points. Gia said that the professionalism is mainly to let the judges know who they should pay more attention to, and since the planned shooting period is only one month, there is no teaching time. The more professional the more I like it. Famous actors like her and Emma Watson have an advantage, and there is no need to consider this.
If the score is still low, viy will definitely doubt her IQ.
IQ, EQ, and temperament will all be taken into consideration, but you can¡¯t tell it at the draft stage. You can¡¯t tell until the individual interview stage.
Understanding and reaction are scored by abcd and -, which are important details of performance points. Gia said, "The role is understanding, and the performance is reaction."
This is not Master Gia¡¯s unique insight, that¡¯s what acting science says.
Because the purpose of this audition is to select a final list from 1,200 people. In order to let the best people emerge, it is not a method of using a performance text for each group and assigning roles to ten people, but cruel and equally of animal simulation and silent improvisation.
The two parts are 3 minutes each. The first is animal simulation. The actors stand and act out the same animal named by the judges, such as lion, tiger, cat, dog, monkey, etc., one every minute.
Then there is a silent improvisational performance, where the judges speak the script randomly and the actors act their own.
For example, Wei said, "You were walking on a deserted street, and suddenly an alien fell from the sky. It told you, 'You are the princess of our planet, and I want to take you back'"
This is really a super test of an actor¡¯s immediate understanding and reaction ability, and he still has to perform! Emma was a little worried about this. If she was stunned and others were able to act well, forget about Watson. If it was a newcomer how embarrassing would she be?
There are ten people standing in a row on the stage. If the performance is not good and has no highlights, it will not be noticed by the judges. Those who cannot react well and laugh out loud will be even worse.
What a cruel talent show!
But it¡¯s not over yet, there are still 4 minutes left, of which 1 minute is for entering and exiting, and 2 minutes is for each person to recite a line for 12 seconds. At that time, the screen behind the stage will display some classic lines from classic movies, follow your own rules Choose a line to recreate a classic moment, or say it your own way.
?????????????????????? There is another segment of ¡°viy asked¡±, which only asks questions and the actors say what they have to say. It is also a test of understanding and reaction. This is definitely a more intense arena!
He has made it clear in the notification email, ¡°I don¡¯t know what I will ask before I ask,¡± so it might be, ¡°Do you prefer Coca-Cola or Paramount?¡±?Coke? ¡±, or it could be ¡°What do you think of my hairstyle?¡± ", or maybe "1456789, what is the sum of these nine numbers? "
The suitable role is the judges¡¯ idea, ss is Susie, bh is Bethany, rd is Rui, the fields are optional, and the remarks are also optional.
All score sheets will not be released to the players, and no one can know their specific results unless Emma plans to call Wei tonight.
In fact, everyone knows that other people¡¯s opinions are only reference. The most important thing is what viy thinks and what impression you give him in these 10 minutes, which directly determines the final result. - Didn't finish reading?
