Chapter 685: May Not Be Suitable
According to the plot, the second scene mainly focuses on the heroine played by Jiuyao who was cursed, her body changed, she became a mermaid, and finally jumped into the sea.
In order to avoid repeated touch-ups, that jump will be filmed separately from the previous content.
But in this scene, Jiuyao's performance was not up to par.
After shooting eight or nine takes, everyone thought it was good enough, but the director was still not satisfied.
Su Jiuyao truly experienced the director's strictness and she also fell into confusion.
The director's evaluation was: The heroine's panic was on point, but the emotions were lacking.
He announced a ten-minute break to allow Jiuyao to relax and get back into the swing of things.
Lin Zihang really wanted to help her, but he knew that she needed to sort out her thoughts on her own, so after handing her a glass of water, he stayed quietly by her side.
Su Jiuyao sat on a white chair, looking at the boundless sea. What was wrong with her performance?
She watched the playback of the film she had just shot, and it was indeed lacking some sincerity, but how could she bring in sincerity?
In the previous scene, Lin Zihang was able to lead her into the role, but this scene mainly relied on her own performance.
She really underestimated the difficulty of acting and overestimated her own abilities.
As soon as this thought came to my mind, I felt completely depressed.
A bunch of negative emotions came up. Maybe I was not suitable for this job at all, but I had the audacity to take on the commercial.
And that script, even though she wrote it, she couldn't act out that feeling. She even suspected that maybe she herself didn't understand the script.
Feelings of frustration and annoyance took over her heart, and as time went on, the anxiety grew stronger.
What if I keep performing poorly?
What if we find that the final result is very poor and affects the sales of Uncle Lin’s new product?
She frowned and stared at the sea, feeling very depressed.
She heard footsteps beside her, turned her head and was surprised to see that it was Gu Hanye.
"Aren't you down there in the boat?"
He pulled out a chair next to her and sat down. "Not yet. I'll go down after we start preparing for that show."
Gu Hanye's voice was steady, and his expression was calm, but he didn't seem like he was there to comfort her...
Even if it was, there was no point in comforting her, because comfort was not what she needed.
"I'll go in for a while." Lin Zihang said, then stood up and left, leaving the space to the two of them.
Su Jiuyao asked: "Did you see what I took just now?"
"I saw it."
Su Jiuyao nodded silently and glanced at him secretly. It seemed that she was not too jealous.
"It's filmed pretty well." Gu Hanye commented.
Su Jiuyao smiled, but soon her smile faded and she said sullenly, "But the director doesn't think it's good, and I also feel that it lacks some emotion."
“But you don’t know how to do it?”
Su Jiuyao nodded: "Maybe... I'm not suitable for filming..."
She rarely admits defeat, especially when it comes to things she has decided on. If she can't do it well, she will not give up.
But this time it was different. She was in the crew and was the protagonist. The more she thought about it, the greater the pressure became and the stronger her self-denial became.
Gu Hanye sighed helplessly and said nothing.
Su Jiuyao felt even more upset. She quickly glanced at the time. Ten minutes had passed and the shooting was about to begin.
She was about to stand up dejectedly, but Gu Hanye patted her thigh and said, "Don't worry, sit for a while. It won't take much time."
“But the director said…”
"Don't worry about him."
