After seeing another side of Lu Hao, Jiang Xianyu improved a lot when acting with him again.
Not only did that stable and relaxed state return, but it also seemed even more relaxed than before.
Every frown, smile, and glance is full of emotions.
Especially the resentment.
The baby's childish emotion of feeling wronged but not saying anything is vividly displayed.
"The Dancing Girl of Izu", the story of the hero and heroine from meeting to falling in love with each other, is so simple that it doesn't seem like a movie, but just a small thing that can be seen everywhere in life.
Delicate, slender, classical and restrained.
The male protagonist Kawashima went on a trip during the summer vacation and met her in a rain shelter in the wilderness of the mountains on a rainy day.
Seeing the little dancer left a mark on his heart, but he pretended not to care and walked with her.
Moved through many hotels.
The little dancer Axun and her family team perform for guests every night.
Kawashima always watched silently, with a heart full of concern.
He wanted to be alone with her, but the opportunities were rare.
Or, there are other guests present.
Or, the little dancer is with her family.
And every time they were alone together, it was extremely short, just a simple conversation, not even ambiguous.
The first time, she poured tea for him, but accidentally spilled the tea in the cup. She wiped it clumsily in a panic and was scolded by her mother-in-law.
The second time, she came to play with him after the performance. He was playing Go, and she treated it as Gomoku. She happily played a game with him and actually won.
The third time, the customer taught her to read, but he was an old pervert who secretly touched her butt. She ran away in shame and met Kawashima, and the sound of reading aloud rang out.
Very simple plot.
The original version of the shot also seems dull and boring.
The photographer, who had seen countless films, looked at Lu Hao with a gradually changing look in his eyes.
Is this a movie?
In many shots, he thought he was filming a music video.
It is indeed beautiful.
The props are very well made, with an ancient style and charm.
The heroine is also very beautiful, and every scene can be screenshotted and used as wallpaper.
But...then what?
Will the audience buy into such a movie?
He doesn't think so.
There is no successful precedent for this type of film in the market.
Not only the photographer, but many people in the crew also think the same way.
However, he didn't dare show it at all.
China produces nearly 20,000 films every year, and more than 90% of them fail.
It is these 90% flop movies that support them.
Lu Hao vaguely sensed some subtle atmosphere within the crew, but didn't say much.
As long as everyone works hard and captures the pictures to the quality they expect, that's all that's fine.
He can't control what others think.
After all, even the law only governs behavior, not thoughts.
…
From June 6th to July 12th, all interior shots were completed, and the next step was the exterior shots.
Location, Izu.
The Izu Peninsula, a small tuff island in the East Asian Gulf, is like a pearl scattered on the sea. It has mountains, sea and hot springs and is a very famous tourist destination.
The scenery is a very important part of this film.
Those picturesque scenes had already passed through Lu Hao's mind countless times, just waiting for the camera to record them.
To be honest, Lu Hao was a little impatient.
…
The fourth scene between Xun and Kawashima is the most explicit scene in the entire film.
In the hot springs surrounded by mountains and shrouded in mist.
The destination has arrived in Izu.
Kawashima and Axun's brother were chatting in the hot spring in a cabin halfway up the mountain.
Ah Xun and her dancer friends were in another hot spring pool which was a little lower in elevation.
When Ah Xun saw them, she ran out of the hot spring bath happily.
The two hot spring pools are a bit far apart, with a mountain path in between.
She called out her brother and Kawashima's names, afraid that they couldn't see her, so she stood on tiptoe and straight.
She waved her arms and smiled warmly. Her white body was wrapped only in a bath towel, naked in the sun. Her legs were long and slender, like a small sycamore tree.
Blue sky.
White clouds.
Green mountains.
The sea.
The girl, wrapped only in a bath towel with wet hair, looked like an elf running out of the mountains, making people's heart beat fast.
Eight drones captured this scene in 360 degrees, all-round and without blind spots.
In the viewfinder.
The photographer stared at the scene with his eyes wide open. He couldn't help but shiver, as if electric shocks were running through his body.
This shot is beautiful.
Extremely beautiful.
It can even be said that this is the most beautiful shot he has ever taken in all his years of work.
He suddenly began to doubt his previous judgment.
Can movies really be shot like this?
It seems...it's not a bad idea.
Does this movie need so much mess?
beautiful.
Beauty is enough, and this is the biggest selling point.
“Crack!”
Jumping out of the hot spring, Lu Hao was wearing a pair of large shorts, his upper body naked, water droplets splashing everywhere, and he ran quickly away from the viewfinder.
He is the male lead and also the director. It's okay for indoor scenes, but for outdoor scenes, he can't avoid this kind of torture.
After watching the entire footage from beginning to end, Lu Hao felt his scalp tingling.
The perspective of the characters in the play and the panoramic perspective are two completely different feelings.
Because of the advanced equipment, this shot has more texture than the original movie he remembers.
Jiang Xianyu's performance was also perfect.
She is a dancer, but more of a child, innocent and sincere. When she sees someone she likes, she gets so excited that she forgets everything else and rushes out of the bathtub even if she is taking a bath.
"This one passed!"
…
"Is this me?"
After finishing work and returning to the hotel, Jiang Xianyu looked at himself in the camera and subconsciously covered his mouth.
To be honest, it was her first time filming a scene without clothes, and she felt a little nervous. Fortunately, she was wrapped in a bath towel and not completely naked.
Of course, there are also special safety pants and nipple covers under the bath towel.
But now, seeing the panoramic view, she felt a tingling sensation in her heart, and was overwhelmed by her own beauty.
Is this me?
The bath towel is not wrapped very tightly, similar to the effect of wearing a suspender.
But the focus of the visual effect of the picture is not on secondary sexual characteristics at all.
In her smile.
With a little baby fat on her face, her smile is as bright as the sun, which makes people not have any sexual thoughts.
"What do you think?"
Lu Hao asked.
"I……"
Jiang Xianyu hesitated, not knowing what to say, but his eyes were smiling into crescents.
"Be prepared to be famous for a long time. Many years later, even if you are old and ugly, the audience will never forget this scene after seeing it."
"Pah! What old age? I'll always be eighteen!"
"Sister, you are nineteen now, okay?"
Jiang Xianyu was in a good mood and didn't bother to argue with him. She shook her hair, hummed a song and ran away.
…
…
Ten days later.
After filming the last farewell scene, "The Dancing Girl of Izu" was completed.
…
