Chapter 376 The Fifth Round of Auditions (Part 1)
Qin Jue reviewed the learning results of the previous days in the film and television space while watching the little fox finish breakfast.
She did not ask Qiao Yu about his original residence and other things. Although the little fox deliberately had a cold face and lost her temper in order to learn the truth, it is undeniable that what she said was the truth. After Qin Jue realized this, he stopped worrying too much.
After a simple reminder, Qin Jue went out with a shoulder bag on his back.
There was also Sen Ran at home, which happened to give the two little guys time to chat. In the end times, the core teammates of them have a deep relationship with each other, and not everyone has to revolve around Qin Jue.
When they walked out of the apartment door, the smart car was already waiting on the roadside.
Qin Jue took a quick look and noticed that several cars parked nearby had the Qinyi Technology icon. It seems that her dog was not very relieved after learning that the little fox was found, and secretly added another layer of protection.
Bending down to get in the car, with big data planning driving, the smart car arrived at the destination not long after.
Patting the roof of the car to say goodbye to "Cobalt Blue", Qin Jue raised his hand to press down the brim of his hat, concealed his presence, and walked calmly into the Shanghai Film and Television Base.
This is the benefit of Class A resources. The "Entertainment Intern" program team sent someone to get a small building for their A group. Although the space is not so grand, it is also fully equipped, and it is not a problem to shoot with the group.
Last night, I fell asleep holding the little fox. I haven't felt so at ease for a long time. Qin Jue got up late for a rare time and was not the first to arrive.
She pushed open the door and saw that Qu Nan and his group were basically there. They looked energetic, although the dark circles under their eyes were still obvious.
"Oh! I'm here!"
"Good morning."
"Morning, Teacher Qin~"
It wasn't long after the team building, and everyone was very familiar with each other, and greeted each other in various ways.
Qin Jue put down his backpack and took the audition book. Without wasting time, he sat at the long table and looked through it.
The audition book is also called a brief biography of the character or a character design book. It mainly records the personality, appearance and other characteristics of the characters in the story, and also comes with several more important plot sections. Finally, according to Qu Nan's personal habits, an additional annotation is added, such as "such and such a role requires wire hanging/contains martial arts scenes", so that everyone can have an idea when choosing a role.
There are a total of six main actors in Group A, three men and three women on the surface. The audition book in Qin Jue's hand is the audition book for male characters.
The most obvious character here is the emperor.
The ancient fictional background, the opposite of the Jianghu is the Great Xia Dynasty. According to the information, the Great Xia Emperor is nearly half a hundred years old. At first glance, it is prepared for Li Zhi, the oldest and most mature male actor.
However, Li Zhi's previous roles have never required such a strong aura, which is also a big challenge.
As for the remaining two young male characters, one is the emperor's son, a male supporting role with a distinct personality; the other is the male protagonist with outstanding light skills and high martial arts skills, who is set as a "Jianghu idler".
If nothing unexpected happens, it depends on how Qin Jue and Liu Zhe divide it.
After all, the actors are already here. Even if Qu Nan wants to give the actors room to choose, the two screenwriters will be more or less influenced by the existing team members when writing the script. The characters they designed are very similar to the "recommended choices" in the game, that is, players can choose the characters that the official thinks are most suitable for you, or they can break the rut and try new styles.
Qin Jue didn't care much about the number of roles. She first flipped through it roughly, got a general impression, and then went back to the beginning to read it again.
Not to mention, although Wang Kaiyue wrote a cool script, the settings of these characters are really interesting, and the characters are not flat.
Qin Jue opened his notebook and wrote down some analysis and insights as he read.
Qu Nan deliberately imitated the settings of the regular crew and did not leave too much preparation time for everyone. At ten o'clock in the morning, the short audition officially began, and the actresses came first.
This is not to follow the principle of ladies first, but considering that they have to set makeup and try on costumes tonight, female characters spend more time in this regard, so this is a little earlier, so as to prepare early.
Xue Yuan was the first to stand up.
The layout of this conference room is similar to that of a general audition room. Several long tables are arranged in a U shape, leaving a large open space in the middle for the actors to audition. The remaining small gap is where Qu Nan and two screenwriters sit, which is the "positive direction" that the auditioning actors have to face.
It can be seen that Xue Yuan is still very serious about the audition. Today, she simply wore a Hanfu costume. Although she did not do makeup and hair according to the audition requirements, her black hair was draped over her shoulders and her posture of walking slowly with lotus steps perfectly matched the temperament of the lady in the boudoir in the role. Just the opening alone won half the battle.
Qin Jue and others sat at the table in the outer circle to watch. Li Zhi did not look up and was still thinking about the script. The role of the emperor basically had no rival scenes with women. Even if he read it, it would not help much for his performance.
Unlike Qin Jue and Liu Zhe, they can also think about how to enrich the characters by observing other people's plots.
"Let's start."
After letting Xue Yuan do a few basic movements such as walking and turning in circles, Qu Nan pointed to a plot.
Xue Yuan did not respond, her eyebrows drooped slightly, revealing a faint sadness, obviously immersed in the play.
She took a light step and moved to the non-existent window. She looked up, but her eyes were unfocused, just in a daze, as if she was waiting for someone to appear, and it seemed that she already knew that person would never come again.
After staying still for more than ten seconds, not knowing what she saw in the "faraway place", Xue Yuan came back to her senses in a trance, and a pair of sad eyes suddenly lit up with a somewhat crazy joy, and then froze again, her breathing suddenly tightened, and a sad and sarcastic smile appeared on her lips.
She smiled gently, and tears fell as she smiled. She covered her face with her sleeves and cried with her bare hands. Her cry was weak, like a bird in a cage, lovable, but sad.
Qu Nan nodded secretly.
This non-property performance was quite brilliant. It was a scene of a gentle and weak young lady missing her lover, thinking that the distant Yanying was him, but she didn't expect that it was just an hallucination caused by excessive longing, so she laughed at herself and cried.
It must be said that Xue Yuan's exquisite and classical temperament is very suitable for this role.
The other two female characters have fighting scenes, and Xue Yuan herself knows that she knows nothing about martial arts, so she got up first to audition and took the most convenient and most suitable role first.
When she got the audition script, she knew at a glance that this lady in the boudoir was prepared for her, and she made a decision immediately. She didn't even look at the other two roles in detail.
Qu Nan pointed out a few shorter plots. Xue Yuan's literary skills are really good, and the first performance was very good. The audition went quite smoothly.
After that, it was Su Su. Unlike Xue Yuan's directional audition, she openly expressed that she wanted to try all of them.
Su Su auditioned the three female roles in the script one by one, but unfortunately her personal temperament was too strong. The lady in the boudoir was sad and mournful, and the master of Fengxin Pavilion was cold and arrogant. Both of these were too extreme. Su Su couldn't support such a completely opposite personality.
Overall, Chen Danqing is the actress with the widest range of roles among the three actresses.
In the film "Wrong" directed by Fang Youwen, she played a heroine who stood on the moral high ground, was a little too naive, had big breasts and no brains. In the current auditions, whether it was a delicate young lady waiting to be married or a rookie in the martial arts world, the suitability was surprisingly high, completely breaking the impression of the "Master of Fengxin Pavilion" that Qu Nan and the two screenwriters had assumed.
If the roles of Xue Yuan and Su Su were not too obvious, Chen Danqing could have picked one out of the three.
However, she had no objection to Qu Nan's assignment and gladly accepted the role of Master of Fengxin Pavilion.
In terms of character depth, the Master of Fengxin Pavilion is also the most full and three-dimensional role, and she is looking forward to playing her well.
The audition results of the actresses were no different from what they expected. After the audition, the three of them were immediately taken downstairs by the makeup artist and the costume designer to try on their makeup and styling. If they acted quickly, they might be able to get the final makeup photos before tonight.
"Next, audition for male roles."
Qu Nan ticked a box on the notebook and turned to the next page.
Li Zhi, Liu Zhe and Qin Jue looked at each other, and Qin Jue made a "please" gesture.
"Then I'll go first!"
Liu Zhe stood up first.
The fifth round of shooting started
