- At 6:40 in the morning, the sky starts to light up in Springfield, and the sun will rise around 7:10.
The w'sb crew that started shooting today wanted to seize the half-hour magic time to shoot a few more outdoor shots to improve efficiency. The shooting period was only one month, but the shooting schedule seemed to be two months, and the king viy on the set was very demanding, everything All very nervous.
Viy is not only demanding, but also serious, cold, and lonely. During the entire pre-production period, almost no one had seen him joking. At most, he only smiled politely and his expressionless face was his trademark. No one knew whether he was depressed because of a broken love, as the gossip said, but he was definitely in a bad mood.
This made the atmosphere on the set very cold, with a depressing atmosphere in the cold wind. The newcomers undoubtedly felt it more seriously, and viy's eyes were intimidating.
Seeing the man approaching, the two girls suddenly became nervous. Alicia smiled, and Jennifer stood up straight without realizing it, with a straight face.
Last night she wandered around on the bed in the suite all night long, her thoughts hazy and messy, as if she was asleep but not at all. She originally wanted to go out for a walk and enjoy the night breeze, but she was afraid that viy would find out, and he felt that she was unprofessional and disobedient, so she was replaced just before the filming started, and she took her luggage and went back to Louisville.
Whenever she thought about that possibility, she almost cried. He seemed dissatisfied these days.
"How do you feel?" he asked as he approached.
¡°I feel like the scenery here is really nice.¡± Alicia is more natural.
"It's okay." Jennifer replied seriously, her eyes seemed to be unable to move, and her mind was filled with blanks.
"Yeah." He looked at them and said encouragingly: "Just make a movie and use what you have prepared. Liz Olsen sent a text message and asked me to say to you, 'I hope you break a leg.' Just wish you good luck."
"Yes, I have received it." Alicia nodded, and Jennifer also nodded: "Me too."
"Then did she say, 'Remember, don't just eat and respond like me'? If she didn't, I said it. Come on!" He smiled, turned around and walked away.
When he walked away, Jennifer breathed a sigh of relief, and the tens of millions of pounds on her shoulders were immediately put down again. This was a turning point in her life, and she was collaborating with her idol, genius viy! Thinking back to the dream I had in New York two and a half years ago, today is a dream come true. I am starring in a movie, a heroine, and a genius
Can¡¯t screw it up!
You must not mess it up!
¡ù¡ù
In the pyramid of various departments on the production team, the top person in the directing team is naturally the director, followed by the assistant director, second assistant director, additional second assistant director, third assistant director No matter how many assistant directors there are, the production assistant is the most important The bottom animals are engaged in tedious, errand-running, non-creative work.
? 20-year-old Lena Dunham is one of the production assistants of w¡¯sb. She submitted her resume, successfully interviewed, and joined the crew. Everything went smoothly and luckily. Compared with the short film being shortlisted for the Slamdance Film Festival, this development opportunity is much better. viy!
She can learn from the genius, and her talent may even be appreciated by him, if she is really talented.
You must know that the legendary female filmmaker Kathleen Kennedy was originally Spielberg's production assistant on "1941". She was appreciated, supported and cooperated by Spielberg, and first became his assistant, together with her husband Frank Marshall , and founded the company Amblin Entertainment, and together they achieved great success.
Dunham regards Kennedy as a template. She has no interest in dating Ye Wei and doesn't like playboys, but as far as the movie is concerned, she can only admire her. She hopes that after this cooperation, she can become his assistant and learn more and get more opportunities.
That is the most ideal situation, and she is not the only one who thinks so. Gia Coppola is not a competitor, Britt Marling and others are. Work hard!
"What happened!? Someone please find a coat for JL to wear. Don't let her get cold. Hurry!!!"
The mountains and forests are busy in the early morning. The crew is rushing to turn on the camera within the magic time. It is already dawn, and every minute that passes is another waste.
Dunham was idle on the set because she was responsible for most of the copywriting work. Now she heard Ye Wei's shout. Although this was not her job, Ye Wei didn't designate anyone to do it, so she responded quickly. : "viy, I'm going right away!"
Before she finished speaking, she ran back towards the base camp. She ran all the way to the makeup truck and took two women's coats. She ran all the way again and came to the front of Jennifer Lawrence and Alicia Vikander. She smiled and said: "Hello, this is the coat." Ye Wei had already walked away.
Although she is new to a professional film set, she is not an ignorant fool. She is a production assistant, and they are big shots.
Maybe she¡¯s still Ye Wei¡¯s female companion. In fact, there have been media gossips about whether any of them will be viy's girlfriend., not very credible, just tabloid nonsense. But last night, Ye Wei and the others played and had a carnival outside the hotel. They disturbed the hotel and were kicked out. They didn't come back until midnight. Now everyone knows that they made too much noise with their indulgent singing.
What everyone doesn¡¯t know is, where did they go and what did they do?
Dunham has an idea that he can¡¯t suppress, threesome? Can a bad boy not see the beautiful girl on his lips? There was a tacit understanding. The three of them were all young, so there was no problem, and no one had to or could manage them. In any case, they are Ye Wei's treasures, so be nice to them.
"Thank you." Jennifer took a dark blue coat and put it on, smiling happily.
"Oh, I'm not cold, but thank you." Alicia also took the coat, holding the one she didn't put on.
"You! Lena Dunham, come here."
Suddenly hearing Ye Wei's shout, Dunham quickly said "I'm leaving" to the two girls, and ran to the porch of the main house in response: "Here it comes!" They were making arrangements for the planes and other seats there. Ye Wei looked at her and asked, "Dunham, are you done with your work?" She nodded with a smile, and Gia Coppola laughed and said, "You are so diligent."
"Well, then, let's start filming." Ye Wei smiled and said, "By the way, I like your name, it sounds nice."
"Haha!" Gia laughed.
"Thank you" Dunham was a little confused. Suddenly, she heard the assistant director Anderson shout: "The whole world is ready!" Ye Wei was laughing and gossiping: "We were just talking about nicknames. I want to be with you." If you were bullied in middle school, you might have been nicknamed dumb-hand."
"They just called me stupid." She couldn't help but laugh, as people with the surname Dunham would do.
Ye Wei blinked his left eye, indicating that it was a friendly joke: "Then I'll call you clumsy."
Dunham nodded and said ok with a smile, of course he wouldn¡¯t mind, viy gave me a nickname! Happiness comes too suddenly. They are indeed big shots.
At the same time, the entire studio staff moved around loudly, and Anderson shouted again: "All the idle people who are not involved in the shooting of the camera, go aside and stay quietly. If you can, please don't make the sound of your breathing! Don't even speak in your heart!" "
Co-second assistant directors Britt Marling and Mike Cahill took Jennifer to the starting point of the camera in the distance. This was a one-person shot and there was no need for rehearsal because it was digitally shot. Ye Wei talked about it There are very few rehearsals. I just use the filming as a rehearsal. I will use the good ones directly and re-shoot the bad ones.
Alicia walked over, and Dunham got the opportunity to follow the camera, and heard Ye Wei say: "Clumsy hand, do you know, Jenny is here to take care of the rookies, if not, she will say 'nonbatants, no "Body-touches, no wavedy-gets-hurt! (Non-combatants, if no one moves, no one will be hurt!)', which means 'You losers who have nothing to do, hurry up and stay aside. , watch us artists show off our talents!'"
Nonbatant? Dunham was very interested. It really vividly showed the people who have positions but are idle, "That's really interesting."
"There are a lot of interesting things. Let me teach you something else." Ye Wei changed his expression, looked at Alicia who was walking over with confusion, and asked, "Are you from Tennessee?"
Dunham knew this and couldn't help but smile. This was not a conversation on the set, but a pick-up line: "Are you from Tennessee? Because you are the only ten-year-old girl I see. (are-lure-from-tennes) É«e?becae-³É-are-the-only-ten-i-É«e.) "Classic but old-fashioned, not many boys can use it anymore, let alone viy, a master of picking up girls, he is just doing something weird. .
Alicia was startled, obviously she had never heard of it, and replied with a puzzled smile: "No, I'm from Sweden."
"That's strange." Ye Wei looked around, then looked at her: "Because you are the only very sweet girl I see, but you are also the only girl who is so sweet that I can't help it."
Dunham, Gia, photographer Michael Grady, who did not participate in the young people's chat, and others all burst into laughter, "i-m-from-sweden.", "but-tempt-are-also-the-only-s- done.¡± The bad boy opens his mouth and is a new classic.
"Haha." Alicia smiled happily and her eyes sparkled, it was really good.
"Just kidding!" Ye Wei said seriously, "Alice, you are very beautiful, but I am joking, you are just a sweet and delicious girl." wedish-girl (Swedish girl), sweet- Delicio-girl (sweet and delicious girl), everyone couldn¡¯t stop laughing, Alicia shrugged; Dunham muttered in his heart, it¡¯s really not simple, this is all flirting in public, viy must have had a full meal last night ¡
"What about me?" Gia squinted her eyes and looked at Ye Wei.
"You're 100%." ??Ye Wei understood her warning, "What are you doing? Be careful I snitch to Lily." CoughHey, I was a little carried away just now, but I got really serious and clapped my hands: "Everyone, hurry up! The magic time is running out."
He looked at the increasingly bright sky and the desolate mountains and forests in the distance.
It snows in the winter in Missouri. The outdoor scenes described in the original work are all inseparable from snow, the kind of ice and snow. However, there won¡¯t be any snow here in October, so it¡¯s impossible to capture the harsh winter feel in the book. The reason why he chose to shoot in October was not due to the schedule, but because he did not intend to use the severe winter as the main tone of the image.
The biggest characteristic of words and images is that one provides imagination and the other realizes imagination. Reading w¡¯sb in the severe winter can still have mixed feelings, but the color of images is monotonous.
¡°It¡¯s not that he has never filmed severe winters. In ¡°Exorcism Video¡±, severe winters make people feel hopeless, depressed, and fearful; late autumn makes people feel dilapidated, depressed, and imminent danger. The latter is more suitable for expressing its complex emotions. As the story goes on, the feeling of winter will become stronger and stronger until the final arrival of winter.
"Everything is ready." Anderson came over and said that the set had quickly quieted down, and the idlers went to the side outside the camera to stay.
"What are we waiting for?" Ye Weixiao asked.
Dunham watched all this intently. This shot is very simple and can be completed by the assistant director or second assistant director, but it is also the opening shot! There was an air of nervousness shared by newcomers on the set.
Now is the magic hour. The most trouble-free thing is the lighting department. There is plenty of natural light and softness. This light quality makes the picture particularly clear. There is a contrast between the colors of the mountains and forests in the background and the house in the foreground. When Jennifer approaches, the audience looks at the house lights. The psychological sense of light source gave her a secondary light to highlight her.
Seeing that the lighting, sound recording, photography, set management and other departments were all in place one by one, and there were densely packed people standing around, including the base camp, and there were more than 50 people working on the set in the room, Dunham couldn't help but sigh in his heart, "It's really a big production." Suddenly, I heard the sound of hitting the board, and then Ye Wei shouted: "Fire!"
The set was suddenly completely different. In the wonderful silence, everyone looked at Jennifer in the distance. She was holding a pile of short pieces of wood and walking here expressionlessly. A small and medium-sized mixed-haired dog actor followed on the right, and the early morning The wind blew the hem of her skirt to the left, revealing her jeans, making her look like a mountain girl who got up early to work.
She approached the firewood chopping point in front of the house. There were only a few scattered short logs and messy sawdust beside the wood piles. When she walked to the pile head, she threw all the wood in her arms to the ground, and there was a loud bang. There was a noise, and she called as she came to the house: "Boys, aren't you up yet?"
¡°Cut! Perfect!!!¡±
¡ù¡ù
"Why don't you twist his ears? You have to twist his ears!"
"Director, listen to me first! At that moment, my brain told me that Rui's behavior was not like that. She would be more serious."
"Your brain? Where's your heart? Wait! You're not going to tell me that you chose Expressionism, are you? Seriously?"
"II didn't make a choice, it was natural. I feel more comfortable acting this way."
"Damn it, damn it."
The w¡¯sb studio was completely silent, except for the two people involved in the dispute, the director and the heroine. Because they were not asked to avoid looking away, everyone was watching or looking away, and they were all a little surprised. It had not been an hour since the filming started, and the magic time had not passed.
Hearing a series of damn words, Dunham, who was also watching, couldn't help but frown. That girl was really smart. It made Viy so angry that even she was nervous about it.
This scene is the beginning of the original work. Rui stood on the steps in front of the house and looked at the environment in the early morning. Her younger brother Harold came out and pointed to the small tree with a deer carcass hanging on the other side of the creek, and there was a conversation. :
"Perhaps blond Milton will bring us a piece tonight."
"Maybe."
"Isn't this what a family should be like?"
"That's what I said."
"Maybe we should ask."
She looked at him. Harold smiled casually, his black hair fluttering in the wind. Rui grabbed Harold's ear closest to her and twisted it until he opened his mouth. She also struggled to raise her hand to grab her ear. She kept twisting until he gave up struggling in pain.
"Absolutely. Never ask for things that should be sent to you on your own initiative."
¡°I feel cold,¡± he muttered, rubbing his ears. ¡°Is all we have left is grits?¡±
"Put more butter on it. There's still plenty of butter."
He opened the door and they both entered the house.
"No, no more."]
? Adaptation of the opening scene of the script?? Instead of just standing and watching, Rui chopped firewood, chopped firewood, and other actions to express the background of the story and the psychology of the characters; this scene was retained and took place next to the wood pile. Harold appeared first. After listening to his words, Rui wanted to throw down the hatchet and twist his ears to teach him a lesson. She said, "There's still plenty of butter," and then Sonny came on the scene and said, "No, there's not any more."
¡°Twisting the ears is a character action written into the script. The screenwriter and director are the same person, so the actors should perform it like this. There was no rehearsal, so Jennifer Lawrence didn't do that. She just said seriously with a hatchet.
Now it is obvious that the director is dissatisfied with her unauthorized improvisation, but the most terrifying thing is that Lawrence seems to be resisting.
"Damn it!" Viy cursed again, took a deep breath, and said to the silent Jennifer: "Why do you twist your ears? That is Rui's feminine expression. At this stage, she doesn't like to use a hatchet to chop wood! She knows how to do it. Her teachings by grabbing her brother¡¯s ears echo the final scene. What do you think?¡±
Dunham nodded silently, smart people know what to do
Jennifer's voice was not loud but firm: "I think, I don't know that much, but I think for the character Rui, she won't twist her ears here. She will twist Gale's ears, but she won't twist the two younger brothers. Yesshe's afraid of them."
"I told you! She's scared because she loves them, and she doesn't know how to love and protect them! She wants them to have more backbone and be good people, but she has to let them learn to survive, but learning to survive is becoming a Bad people, that's the only thing she can teach them, the only thing she knows, so she's afraid! The reason why she twists her ears is because of this complexity, she's not sure! She's afraid that one day Harold's struggle will defeat her. It will always come, she is afraid, so she wants to make sure that she can still lead them! It is a struggle of family power, maternal power and patriarchy. "
The director's words were deafening, and everyone understood, but Jennifer was still wordy: "I think her heart is so complicated and painful, she must be a little stiff, and twisting her ears is too lively Isn't the hatchet also her power? ¡¡±
"So she threw it away and used ear-twisting instead, because they are family! Could it be that Harold was disobedient and she chopped him with a hatchet? Twisting ears is the way for the three siblings to compete in strength, and it is also Rui's current stage. A feminist expression. You can¡¯t just think about a single scene, you have to think about the whole story.¡±
"II just thought about it." Jennifer was still saying, but the eyes of everyone around her were probably very cold, and her face was a little red. "Twisting the ears here seems to distort the character's performance for the metaphors you mentioned. I think Rui is like that in her daily life.¡±
"Have you ever experienced the character with your heart?" His tone was serious.
"I do!" Jennifer said hurriedly, "I've seen her, I'm just not her." He asked: "What did you see?" She expressed her thoughts: "Rui is not an emotional person who speaks without thinking. A person who works. The hardships she experienced since she was a child made her think and react not from her heart, but from her head. She was not interested in twisting her ears. She was not from the city or a student from a prestigious private school. She did not react that way. Yes. I mean"
The set suddenly smelled of gunpowder.
Alicia looked at Jennifer in shock, like she was going crazy. Is she mocking him? How dare she! Although viy always said not to be his yes man, butis this really okay? It's like walking on a tightrope thousands of feet high in the sky.
Dunham looked around and found that many people seemed to be smiling. Also, what did a 16-year-old rookie actor say to a talented director about his heart and mind
"The magic time is running out. Whatever you think of, just do what I say." Viy was also very tough. He pointed at the little boy playing Harold and ordered: "Twist his ears! Twist them off." Same."
"Butbut" Jennifer's face turned redder and redder, watching him turn around and walk back to the camera, she was really anxious, but there was nothing she could do. She should be obedient. What does she know, but it doesn't feel like thatthe logic is wrong.
"Once the situation is like that here, it will always be like that after setting the tone. I'm really unwilling to accept it." If that's it wouldn't that be the same as Liz Olsen?
It was obviously him who said not to be a yes man. Jennifer couldn't help but follow.
"What?" viy looked back at her.
"I reserve my opinion." Jennifer muttered.
The studio was silent for a moment, and then I didn¡¯t know who laughed first, causing everyone to burst into laughter: "Hahahaha!", "Hahahaha!", "Pfft hahaha!"
The cameraman is laughing, the assistant director is laughing, and the scriptwriter is laughing too.The sound engineer was laughing, the art director was laughing Like dominoes being toppled, the veterans all laughed, and Gia was so amused that she also smiled. Sometimes the fruit of laughter is like this. When you listen to others laughing, you can't help laughing yourself. The more you laugh, the funnier you become.
??And everyone has been suppressing it for a long time, and this smile really can't be stopped, and it is really harsh.
Dunham and other newcomers were all embarrassed for Jennifer, and some didn¡¯t know whether they should laugh or not. Was this also making fun of them?
She saw Jennifer¡¯s expression changing continuously, and she stood there blankly, as if she was about to cry.
She looked at the director again, but he was not smiling, he was looking around
"Is it funny?"
¡ù¡ù
"Why don't you twist his ears? What's wrong?"
"Wei, at that moment just now, I saw Rui's heart. She was in pain, and her body was stiff from the pain, so I think her performance should not be to twist her ears, but just stand and talk."
"Wait, you saw Rui? Did you choose Expressionism?"
"I don't know, man, I guess it was a natural choice. I didn't think about it, but it just happened and I felt more comfortable."
"Damn it, man! You're so talented, my God, in this day and age, let alone film actors, are there any such young, outstanding expressionistic actors on the stage? I can't think of anyone, not even me. No. I know if you are, butyou know during the talent show, I should say all the time, I thought the method you used to act was so damn"
¡°Uh¡ it¡¯s okay if you perform well, right?¡±
"That's the truth."
The sun has not yet risen in the sky, and a disagreement is taking place on the w¡¯sb set. Ye Wei is surprised, worried and even disappointed. Expressionist? wtf?
Jennifer giggled sheepishly, but she actually didn¡¯t know if she was right or not. She asked sincerely: ¡°So? Rui¡¯s performance logic tells me that you can¡¯t twist your ears here.¡±
"Stanilavsky asked me to tell you: twist my ears." He almost didn't think about it, but she became anxious: "But!" He interrupted loudly: "You need to twist your ears here, and there are many functions that I can't explain to you simply. , but it is definitely in line with the logic of this character's reaction. Well, let me tell you" He explained, and then said: "Is it clear? Seize the magic time."
Many combatants and non-combatants nodded silently, Alicia was also a little anxious, Jane! viy made it clear, just listen to him.
"But I think." Jennifer was still arguing, "I don't know about directors and screenwriters, it's just I think about the character itself. She won't change her just to express your intention. She has her daily ways. , it¡¯s justit¡¯s definitely not the first time something like this happened, how could she react so strongly?¡±
"Maybe it's the first time?" Ye Wei shrugged and asked, "The first time the situation is so bad."
"I think"
"You have a good idea, but this time you just act like that, twisting his ears." Ye Wei toughened his tone and pointed at the little boy playing Harold, "Twist it hard." He said and moved a few times. Walking back to the camera outside.
Jennifer was reluctant and couldn't help but follow, her voice a little excited: "Because of your intentions, you are controlling Rui. I mean, what I understand and what I see is not such a person. A large part of the character's action logic is Created by actors?¡±
"Just act like that." Ye Wei turned around and said.
Gia did not participate. Regardless of whether Dunham and others were veterans or rookies, the smart ones actively avoided looking, and the unsmart ones were like pieces of wood. God knows what their relationship is.
Jennifer didn¡¯t know what else to say. She only knew that she had failed in her fight. She was really unwilling She said her messy thoughts: "Wei, I¡¯m not dissatisfied with you. Both manifestations are possible, but we have different grasps of Rui. , maybe there are differences between boys and girls, city people and country people, I think I understand these country people better.¡±
"There's no time, just act like that." Ye Wei glared at her impatiently.
"Oh." Jennifer felt uncomfortable, "Then I reserve my opinion."
The studio was silent for a moment, and Ye Wei suddenly burst into laughter. However, he suddenly thought of "stale-ice" and Lily, and suddenly laughed more and more funnily: "Hahahaha! Interesting Hahaha, haha! "
Seeing viy overjoyed, the old fritters were amused one after another. Is she under-protest? Of course it's interesting Gia couldn't help laughing. What's going on?
Some of the rookies were in a daze, and some were laughing stupidly. Dunham was stunned, feeling disgusted with the little tyrant.
"Hahahahaha!" Ye Wei is still laughing, laughing a little and dancing, laughing so hard that his face turned red, "Oh my god, hahaha"
"Haha." Jennifer giggled at first, but listening to the laughter from all directions, especially Ye Wei's wild laughter, she was soon filled with various emotions such as embarrassment, uneasiness, sadness, and confusion, and suddenly realized that she had committed the crime. Stupid, I thought Ye Weizhen thought of her as someone.
"Hahaok, that's enough!" Ye Wei tried his best to stop laughing. Just as he was about to take a deep breath to adjust his breath, he thought of something and burst into laughter again: "Hahahaha!"
Jennifer felt her facial muscles become stiff. She glanced at Alicia, who was frowning over there, and her eyes were being hit by heat - Didn't finish reading?
