Superstars start with hip-hop
Chapter 367
As a screenwriter plus a lead actor plus an investor, Song Yubai, who has a triple identity, and the cast, Song Yubai must be present.
There are several important roles in "Those Years".
Song Yubai did not participate in the selection of other less important roles.
But the heroine Shen Jiayi and some friends around Ke Jingteng, who played by herself, still need Song Yubai to choose.
After all, a movie that lasts almost two hours, the audience mainly looks at these people.
If the casting fails, unsuccessful, it is likely to lead to the failure of the movie.
Even if the script is really successful, but if the acting is bad, it is undoubtedly a bad film, so the casting must be careful.
When Song Yubai was required to participate in the casting, the actors who auditioned had already been screened for a round. Those who failed their acting skills and wanted to get in through the back door were basically out.
Gu Liushang is a relatively well-known director in the past two years, so there are still many actors who come to audition, which leads to a lot of work in the early stage.
In the end, for each role, there are basically only two or three competitors left. It is better to screen, or it is more appropriate to describe it in the sentence that it will not take too long.
The audition may be over at the end of the day. As for whether the audition can be determined on the spot, it needs to be considered after the audition is over.
"All the actors' materials for auditioning are here." Gu Liushang pointed to the pile of materials on the table and said to Song Yubai.
Gu Liushang didn't rest for several days because he was busy preparing for the movie.
His face looked haggard, the dark circles under his eyes were obvious, and his face was also bumpy.
In such a comparison, Song Yubai felt that his skin was really good.
"What are you doing in a daze, look, people will come to audition in a while." Gu Liushang stretched out his hand and waved in front of Song Yubai, always feeling that Song Yubai was thinking about something rather rude.
Song Yubai looked at the pile of materials, it looked like there were dozens of pages, and thought that in a while, there should be actors coming to audition.
So I sat down and looked at the actors' profile seriously.
It still feels a bit strange. After all, it is really the first time for Song Yubai to choose an actor by himself.
I used to audition for the role myself, but I didn't expect the role to be reversed so quickly now.
But I have to say that this feeling is pretty good, and there is no need to feel nervous.
Song Yubai began to look carefully at the actor's profile, all of whom were relatively young.
After all, it is a movie about youth and campus, so the actors should try to find as many real-age actors to play as they will be more energetic.
Song Yubai slowly turned page by page. For Song Yubai, it doesn't matter what kind of work these actors have played before.
After all, Song Yubai didn't know, so he simply ignored it.
If it is really a well-known work, Gu Liushang will surely remind him.
It took Song Yubai a while to read the information about the actor. Basically, he has never acted in a few dramas, or he just graduated from school.
During Song Yubai's review of the materials, if there are any outstanding acting skills, Gu Liushang on the side would say a few words.
Song Yubai also memorized all Gu Liushang's names, thinking about taking a closer look later, whether it was really that good.
After reading the actor's information, then the actress's, basically they are all competing for the heroine.
After all, the heroine of a movie, the director is Gu Liushang, who just won the award, and the male lead is Song Yubai, a popular trend.
Even if the film is not very good, the popularity will not be bad, and it is a movie after all.
Many actresses auditioned with this idea.
Song Yubai looked at the information about the actresses. There were more than ten pages, which shows how competitive the heroine is.
"This has already screened out a large part of it. Before, the number of people was like a line to buy vegetables. It was about the same length. I was almost blind." Gu Liushang said to Song Yubai.
"This is still a lot." Song Yubai flipped through the information.
"You don't know the current circle. Some of the actresses who came to the audition before tried to plot against the old Gu and me." After that, Gu Liushang came to make a gesture of covering his chest, with a shy expression on his face.
Song Yubai: "..."
"Is this possible?" Song Yubai accidentally said what was in his heart.
Old Gu's face turned black for a moment, what does this mean, who looked down upon.
Then it seemed to think of something, and sighed, "What's this, they don't care who it is, and they just cut their mouths no matter how hard it is to chew. I always think of me as a good-looking thing, this kind of thing in the circle. Too much."
Song Yubai nodded, this is true, but Gu Liushang sighed, and he had to praise his face, a little shameless.
After mixing for so long, he knew a lot of insider information. For example, there are some artists who have gold masters behind them, even men.
Song Yubai was quite shocked when he first learned that some artists were like this, but he got used to it later.
Continuing to look at the actor's information, several Song Yubai knew each other, but only those who knew their names. They met at some parties and belonged to some famous artists.
Song Yubai was quite surprised to have so many people come to audition.
A total of more than ten pages of information, Song Yubai finished browsing at an average rate of one page per minute, and finally saw a rather unexpected face.
After reading the information, after a while, the audition began.
The first audition was for the supporting actors. When the actors came in and saw Song Yubai, they were all a little surprised.
Then it seemed to think that Song Yubai was the lead actor in this play, so sitting there should be considered as it should be, adapting quickly.
The audition is proceeding in an orderly manner. I have to say that the actors who have undergone a round of screening performed quite well.
Song Yubai looked at it one by one, and the same role changed a lot in his personal interpretation.
Song Yubai has marked on the profile of each actor who performed more spiritually.
After a few hours of interviews, the rough casting is basically a good idea.
Some actors do not necessarily say how good their acting skills are, but they have that kind of temperament that fits that role well.
"Is it almost set?" Gu Liushang asked.
The final casting decision is basically made by two people.
"It's almost the same, but we have to let some people see the people we choose. After all, we may not feel right."
"If others find it weird and bad, we still need to discuss it again." Song Yubai said to Gu Liushang.
For casting, Song Yubai is still relatively conservative.
Sometimes you can't believe your own feelings too much. After all, the movie needs to be presented to the audience in the end, so the audience's senses are the most important.
Let people see the audition video of the chosen actor. If it is really strange, Song Yubai and others need to discuss it again.
Next, Song Yubai and others rested for a while, and it was the highlight of today's casting, the choice of the heroine.
Song Yubai was afraid that he would be dazzled by the audition of more than a dozen actresses.
