Chicago 1990

Chapter 463: Improving Acting Skills

ntent

In the second half of the audition, the old Larry was very serious. In fact, he was also taking this opportunity to explain his understanding of the role and performance requirements. A short scene was broken and broken and guided carefully.

"1234, 4678..."

After adjustment, Song Ya will now stand slightly behind Ashley Judd. When she teaches dancing, she shows a clumsy side, and occasionally reveals the inner activities of secretly retreating, in line with her stereotyped dance. A smile of disdain and mockery.But when Ashley Judd looked at herself, she immediately became serious again, accurately expressing the boy's emotion of not letting go of any chance to be handsome in front of the girl he liked, and the other party turned his head and immediately connected a goddess to secretly observe closely. Admiring eyes.

In terms of dance moves, he adapted Ashley Judd’s modern dance into a free and easy hip-hop version according to the original movie and the design of Anne Fletcher.

"Ok, very good." The scene that has been repeated several times was finished, and old Larry finally gave some affirmation, "Ashley, your performance is already in place, but please pay attention to the heroine's performance in this scene. You must have a sense of passage. From the beginning to teach dance seriously, you find that the male protagonist’s dissatisfaction and helplessness, and then the two are slightly satisfied with the gradual proficiency, and at the last stage, they must show interest in the male protagonist’s street dance. And a good impression of the hero."

"But in the script at this time, the heroine has not broken up with her ex-boyfriend." Ashley Judd picked up the script on the chair and turned to the front.

"In this drama, the heroine will not show any true love emotions to her ex-boyfriend. The heroine is in college, and it’s almost a school flower. The ex-boyfriend is a star in the school, so they are together, like a kind of It’s a common inevitability on campus. Girls can’t figure out whether they really love this person or not. So in a few scenes with her ex-boyfriend, she must show this confusion and the perfect couple in front of her. The feeling of being far away in his heart... well, far away."

Old Larry said: "In short, this dance show condenses the gradual warming of the relationship between the heroine and the heroine. It has a fast rhythm, so the performance must have a strong sense of passage and must be overly natural. Let's take a break.

"Okay, wait a minute." Ashley Judd walked to the corner and spoke to the assistant who helped with the script, brewing emotions.

"Aps, your performance is less difficult, but please also note that your expression lacks a sense of hierarchy. For the male protagonist, inspiration is a key element throughout the show, and you cannot relax at all times."

Old Larry said to Song Ya: "The male protagonist is a street person who is born in a slum, is not well-educated and idles. He has the consciousness of trying to get rid of this kind of life, but he lacks the ability to make a determination to change. In this dance, In fact, he is incapable of fully learning the dance movements of the heroine. Part of his mocking smile is that he really disagrees with this more rigid art form, and the other part is not to hide his ability or the level of effort is not up to the standard. Pretending to protect yourself."

"Self-protection?"

"Yes, everyone will definitely find a reason for their inertia, and the male protagonist's rejection of modern dance is also the same for a certain reason. He is afraid that after working hard, he will not be as good as the female protagonist. The slum environment he lives in is also right. The kind of people who work towards mainstream social behavior laughed at him, so he found a reason for himself, that is, he does not like modern dance, and advocates the free expression of street dance." Old Larry said.

"But the hero really likes street dancing," Song Ya said.

"But if you want to be successful in the dance industry, you must have certain basic skills." Anne Fletcher added: "The same two abstract painters, one can do sketches and classical oil paintings well, he just likes and chooses to use abstraction. The other basic skill of art is totally inadequate. He can only use abstract paintings that ordinary people can't understand as a cover. The difference between the two is very big."

"This is your script, your story, you should be able to grasp it well." Old Larry said: "The male lead finally started to work hard.

"This is the same as the best friend of the male protagonist, he can play professional basketball..." Song Ya also began to try to analyze the role.

"It's baseball, it has been changed to baseball." Yeremov reminded, "The male leader's buddies basically finalized Adam Sandra."

"The hero's buddy has the ability to play professional baseball, but he is afraid to work hard for this goal, so it is impossible for children in the slum to have that kind of opportunity to justify his inertia." Song Ya continued.

"It's not an excuse, it's a reason. People always have to find a reason for their behavior." Old Larry nodded: "Many people don't even realize the hypocrisy and deceptiveness of this reason, because self-reflection and denial are difficult and very difficult. It’s painful. It’s easier to find a reason to persuade yourself, and then continue to hang around in the streets, having fun with friends, and staying in the comfort zone of your own soul for a lifetime.”

"Of course, this kind of reason for persuading oneself is not without its reason. The children of the poor do need to work harder to be successful, and indeed hard work may not necessarily be rewarding."

"Because of this reason is reasonable, both the male protagonist and his buddies are stuck in the quagmire of self-deception. They actually realized that they are self-deception, and they are unwilling to continue to hang around in the streets and rely on thieves. Touch continues to live, so they actually know that they want to change, but it is difficult to change, and it is also difficult to face their own hearts."

"To put the complexity of this kind of person to aps, you have the talent for acting, this is not a compliment." Old Larry emphasized repeatedly, "the sense of hierarchy, the level of expression and movement."

"I understand."

I watched the original movie so many times, and he wrote the script under his leadership. Of course, he knows the character of the male lead, but it is difficult to express it clearly to the audience in a short period of play.But no matter how difficult it is, you must do it. You can't always have a narration about your mental activities.

He also went to think about the script for a while, "I designed a movement." He proposed a new idea, "The male protagonist became a little irritable after finding it was difficult to jump the female lead's dance moves into place. I tried it again, but it didn’t work, so I was even more annoyed. I simply stepped back a few steps and stared at the heroine who was still teaching the action with my hands in the waist. It was not until the other person turned to look at me that he immediately switched back to the usual way. Everything is indifferent to the state, and dance the familiar street dance."

"can."

The audition continued after getting the affirmation of old Larry.Both of them made improvements. The heroine played by Ashley Judd corrected it once when she saw him dancing hip-hop. After the correction was ineffective, she had no choice but to continue training together. Gradually, she was so Attracted by the new forms of dance expressions and the movements of the hero, the dance became more and more tacit, and the heroine slowly recognized it, and a smile began to appear on her face.

"Very good, very good, let's stop here today." Old Larry was finally satisfied, looked at the time, and announced the end of the audition loudly.

"Good job." She praised Song Ya politely, walked to Lali and the others for a while, and said goodbye to the assistant.

"The double-sided Ruby at the beginning of the year is likely to help her win the Chicago Film Critics Association's Best Newcomer Award."

Yeremov looked at her back and said.

"Indeed, the acting is very good." Old Larry nodded.

"After all, she is a famous actress, one of the most promising new actresses in Hollywood." The casting director also echoed.

"Rookie? She's older too, right? 68 years." Song Ya said immediately, afraid that they would change their minds.

Everyone looked at the casting director, thinking that he was going to break out again, but unexpectedly changed his sex this time, "it is true." The casting director said.

"By the way, the Chicago Film Critics Association, will they help me after my film is released? After all, I am also from Chicago." Song Ya asked.

The Chicago Film Critics Association is an organization of professional film critics second only to the Los Angeles Film Critics Association. It has less than forty members, but its influence is not low. There is also a great god Roger Albert who has a personal column in the Chicago Sun. , There is also a film critic program on pbs TV station. He is also a Ph.D. from the University of Chicago and a guest professor of a film course. Unfortunately, he rarely comes to teach. Song Ya has never seen this well-known alumnus on campus.

"Don't think too much, they like art films more than the film critics associations in Los Angeles and New York, Spike Lee's kind, don't mess with them, they won't have any kind words about a commercial youth musical." Ye Lie Muff interrupted his fantasy.

"Okay, I'll take a rest." Song Ya took the opportunity to find Amy and Taraji.ntent
