"Yiyi, don't be nervous! You are already so familiar with Chris, I think you will have no problem with this scene."
Tan Hanyi didn't expect that after the press conference and a meal with the entire crew, which also served as a farewell party for the heroine Ye Shifei, she would actually have her first scene.
Or a night show?
Do we have to rush like this?
"This is a holographic shooting scene device newly rented by the crew. It is very expensive. We couldn't rent it in the early stage." The assistant director explained the situation to her.
Eh? What high-tech holographic scene device? Tan Hanyi did her homework in the early stage. She said that this fairy tale drama looks beautiful, but in fact, it is all 360 degrees of imagination by the actors.
For example, once the director turns on the camera, the actors enter the scene with great pressure. The director and the producer look at the big camera and they see it beautifully.
There are green mountains and birds singing, and flowers blooming and green grass everywhere. The actors' styling and makeup are all fairy-like. As long as you fly in, it will be a super beautiful and fairy-like picture.
The director will ask you to recite lines and perform various martial arts moves.
Don't make a shaky expression, and keep a beautiful posture when you're exerting pressure. Do you think that's enough?
Fairy tale dramas are the most popular TV drama genre among Chinese audiences, with one or two becoming popular every year.
So many big-name artists and idols are fighting for a spot in a fantasy film. Once they join the crew, they have to fight for a spot in it.
One is a Supreme Immortal, and the other must be a Demon Lord. Anyway, in the Three Realms and Six Paths, the bigger the celebrity, the bigger the appearance.
I say so much just to highlight that filming a fantasy drama is not as glamorous as it seems.
Before joining the crew, Tan Hanyi learned about the filming procedures while lying on the hospital bed.
The mountains, water, birds, spiritual beasts, including the heaven-defying magic and flying dragons and phoenixes are all things that the actors cannot see!
You can’t see it, you just can’t see it!! There is no physical performance throughout the whole process!
In a space, behind is a large canvas backdrop that is so green that it is blinding. It is an oppressive and boring filming environment. Sometimes, the opponent you are fighting with is not even there, and the actor has to work diligently, imagining that he is at the end of the sky or the underworld.
What's under your feet? Is that a sword or a spiritual beast?
In fact, it is only that cold machine that carries you, rocking under your feet like a rocking chair.
After going up, the whole process is under pressure, and when reciting the lines, you have to feel grief that is as big as the sky falling and the earth cracking, or a thorough enlightenment of the laws of nature.
If any hidden weapon is lost, the magic weapon will be activated.
Apart from being lifted up by the pressure and turning 360 degrees to make the most beautiful poses, the rest is just scenery that can only be seen by the audience.
No matter how beautiful and grand the scene is, the actors are struggling alone during filming.
I imagined her rising into the sky, I imagined her standing in the Yao Chi Heavenly Palace, I imagined millions of bloodthirsty orcs coming towards her, I imagined her being pierced through the heart by a sword that had not yet been invented in the later stages, and then she slowly fell from the clouds with blood splattering three feet away.
Die with eyes wide open...
What is this called? This is a drama madman!
Acting in fairy tale dramas is a very unpleasant job; it is not easy for gods, demons, and goblins.
Tan Hanyi filmed "Jue Chen" with such awareness, and she also wanted to play the role of a madman very professionally.
Just let her be beautiful and crazy on her own and play the role well.
"Why are you just standing there? Once you go in, you'll see all the holographic images. They look exactly like the real thing. Shooting this way will definitely make you more immersed in the role."
The assistant director took Tan Hanyi to the new studio opened by the crew. It was a night scene, and it required a large crew.
Tan Hanyi saw that her brother was already there.
The director was discussing the scene with him.
As the first person to try crabs and use the new filming equipment, Tan Hanyi certainly didn't quite understand it.
But once I entered, I was stunned!
What is this? Isn’t it said that filming a fantasy drama is extremely boring and can only be completed by the actors going crazy alone?
"Oh my God! Is this true?" The gurgling stream and the pleasant sound of flowing water filled the empty valley.
