Chapter 273 Take Back Your Look

"Director Du, you don't have to keep shooting his face close to his micro-expressions. How can a newcomer like him, who's never acted before, capture micro-expressions well? Focus on capturing his handsomeness, his beautiful jawline, his high nose bridge, his heroic eyebrows. If his expressions aren't working well, change the angle and shoot his chest muscles, his long legs, his straight back, or even his slender fingers and bony wrists..."

In order to make William look more handsome, she added many small details when choosing his clothes, such as Swiss watches, jewel cufflinks, and branded ties. These small elements can be included in the film.

Hu Xiaoxiao pointed out to Du Qian point by point, asking him to change his previous style of photographing men.

This is a film with a strong female lead, not a strong male lead, so the male lead just needs to be handsome, good-looking, and pleasing to the eye.

Hu Xiaoxiao suggested that Director Du should refer to how beauties were photographed before. When photographing beauties, the director would not just shoot their faces, but also their figures, long legs, and make them look dazzled with jewelry.

After hearing this, Director Du revealed an indescribable expression, "Are you going to film him as just a vase?"

"Isn't that so?" Hu Xiaoxiao asked him back, "Do you want him to carry the box office?"

Of course I can’t bear it!

so--

Du Qian is indeed an experienced director. He quickly came to his senses and adjusted his shooting techniques.

William cannot make complex micro-expressions, so we chose to shoot his best-looking right side of the face, and then use the light and the transition between dark and light to make William's face more three-dimensional and charming in the camera.

In addition to being handsome, being handsome also needs to be set off.

In the film's first scene, when the male protagonist Qin Yifei appears, there's a scene where a door opens and he walks out. Du Qian filmed a few ordinary men before opening the door. Then, the camera pans to reveal a luxurious door opening, revealing Qin Yifei, a tall, handsome man in a suit, calmly emerging from the room.

With the previous background, William's aura suddenly became fully exposed, and his temperament became more unique and charming under the background.

This is exactly the effect Hu Xiaoxiao wants.

Hu Xiaoxiao also told Du Qian: "When you take pictures of me, I have to look this good too. I can't be outdone by him."

Du Qian didn't want to talk to Hu Xiaoxiao. It was his first time filming a scene where the heroine and the hero were competing to see who was more beautiful. "Don't worry, you're already very beautiful. You'll look good in any photo."

"Although it's true that any photo looks good, it would be even better if it could look better."

"Okay, okay, okay, I know, I know, I know."

The scenes outside the Jinjing Building were all secondary plots, with not many action scenes and a relatively simple plot, so they were completed quickly.

At this time, the Jinjing Building was also decorated. Liang Jiafeng worked overtime to perfect the script and submitted the manuscript.

After becoming familiar with the script, it’s time to start filming the main scene.

The highlight of an action movie is naturally inseparable from the fighting, especially when it is a battle between a bodyguard and a killer.

After Du Qian started filming, he discovered a problem, a big problem.

If you want an action scene to be interesting, it must be destructive. The more thorough the destruction, the more tense and exciting the scene will be, and the more entertaining it will be.

However, the hotel's luxury suites and offices were newly renovated by the big boss Luo Sheng, and he spent a lot of money on these luxurious renovations. What if they are damaged too badly and Luo Sheng gets angry?

"I've thought of this for you." Hu Xiaoxiao took out the disclaimer, pointed to the signature and seal underneath, and said, "Luo Sheng knew you would be hesitant and afraid to go all out, so he had Brother Shan sign a disclaimer in advance. No matter how much damage is done to the Jinjing Building, we won't be held responsible. Director Du, it's okay, go ahead and shoot!"

Why did Du Qian feel uneasy? Who was Luo Sheng? Who didn't know him? Everyone who knew him knew that he was extremely greedy. If a greedy person damaged his property, would he forgive him?

Du Qian took the disclaimer and looked at it. It was indeed Li Huishan's signature, and the seal was also genuine. "Ms. Hu, what if, I mean, what if Luo Sheng regrets it?"

"Then you can just put the blame on me."

With Hu Xiaoxiao's words, Du Qian put his courage back into his stomach and discussed with Hu Xiaoxiao how to make the scene bigger.

Blasting is not allowed indoors and the structure of the building cannot be damaged. There are actually quite a lot of restrictions.

But it is not a problem for them as they are experienced.

The set they chose was luxuriously decorated, with lots of glass. Since they couldn't smash the walls, they decided to smash the glass. The shattering shots, the flying glass fragments, and the crackling sound of the glass breaking were all incredibly impactful. In short, the entire scene was incredibly powerful.

As for those displayed artworks, since Luo Sheng knew that a movie was going to be filmed here but didn't move them away, they could definitely be used to smash them.

Du Qian set up the camera and the first scene he filmed was the first meeting between the heroine Feng San and the hero Qin Yifei.

The Qin family's mortal enemy sent five henchmen to the Qin Company to capture Qin Yifei. Just when Qin Yifei fell to the ground during his thrilling escape and was about to be caught, Feng San arrived!

She seemed to have fallen from the sky and fought off several thugs.

In this section, in order to show the charm of the heroine's character when she first appears, the screenwriter Liang Jiafeng designed the scene of shattering the glass and then making a grand appearance after looking at Luo Cheng's office area.

For this purpose, Hu Xiaoxiao specially changed into a very cool tactical uniform that had been designed previously. The tactical uniform was designed according to Hu Xiaoxiao's figure. It has a slim fit and delicate tailoring. It can not only reflect her heroic aura, but also take into account her beautiful and eye-catching figure.

Wearing high-grade leather black combat boots, he made a dazzling appearance by kicking the glass apart.

Her hair was tied in a high ponytail, and her stylist had specially designed some smoky eye makeup for her, which, through the smudged makeup, made her look both beautiful and cold. She seemed to have a murderous aura around her, and she looked down at Qin Yifei, who was lying on the ground in a mess.

Qin Yifei looked up at Feng San, who was both heroic and extremely beautiful. The light in his eyes was like two shining stars.

“Cut!”

Director Du Qian immediately called a halt and yelled at William, "William! Do you know how to act? Have you read the script? When you first met Feng San, you were extremely dissatisfied with her. You felt that she was too controlling and that you had no freedom. You hated her! So, you should control your gaze and show indifference! Do you understand what indifference means?"

William touched his heart which was beating a little fast: Indifferent, yes, I want to be indifferent, and I also want to be disgusted.

"Director, I understand." William lay back down and said seriously.

He will try to be indifferent!
