Chapter 15 Lin Yu's Rescue
Chapter 15 Lin Yu's Rescue
The second performance began.
After Lin Yu finished delivering his lines, he looked at Bai Lu.
This time, her expression changed completely from the calm one she had when talking to Wang Ze.
He became unusually enthusiastic, his face beaming with joy.
Lin Yu couldn't help but sigh, "Your facial expression control is good, but you've overdone it a bit."
Li Huizhu's voice rang out again.
"Cut! Bai Lu's expression is too much; she didn't control her expression well!"
Bai Lu's expression changed slightly at this moment.
Twenty minutes later.
"Cut! Bai Lu's expression is too serious again!" Li Huizhu said to Bai Lu with some helplessness.
She was speechless.
Her performance after Bailu was worse each time.
This is the fifth time.
As expected, they are still newcomers and not graduates of a professional acting school. Their understanding and interpretation of the characters in the drama are still too limited.
Unlike Lin Yu, who basically always gives her the feeling she wants.
She was thinking of just using the footage from the first take.
Bai Lu was extremely frustrated at this time.
Her eyes were a little red.
It wasn't a feeling of being wronged, but rather a feeling of blaming oneself for being so useless.
This very first shot took five takes to get right, and she really didn't know how to act it.
She looked helpless at that moment.
She even began to doubt whether she was really not suited for acting.
It felt as if all the improvement in my acting skills before was just a dream.
Just as Bai Lu was wondering what to do, a voice rang out.
"Director Li, why don't we take a break? Sister Bai Lu is probably a little nervous because it's her first time acting. Let's go over the scenes together and get a feel for it!" Lin Yu said with a smile to Li Huizhu.
Li Huizhu looked at Yu Zheng beside her, clearly seeking his opinion.
Yu Zheng simply nodded.
After all, Bai Lu is the actress he's heavily promoting in this TV series.
If that damages their confidence...
That would be a loss rather than a gain.
"Okay! The whole crew will take a 20-minute break before continuing filming!" Lee Hye-joo nodded in agreement.
After all, if Bai Lu can't adjust, then today's scenes really can't be filmed.
She didn't quite believe that Lin Yu could make Bai Lu recover.
But it's a last resort, a desperate measure.
After listening to Lin Yu's words, Bai Lu looked at him with gratitude.
At this time, Lin's younger brother was still the one who treated her well.
Lin Yu and Bai Lu went directly to a secluded corner of the film set.
Fortunately, Lin Yu had a thorough understanding of the script, not only his own scenes but also those of his co-stars.
This was a habit Lin Yu developed in his previous life.
After all, knowing the lines of your fellow actors can help you perform better.
"Thank you for getting me out of that predicament, Brother Lin!" Bai Lu's complexion improved slightly, and she looked at Lin Yu with gratitude.
"You're welcome! I didn't want to see you in such a hurry!" Lin Yu explained.
"I just don't know to what extent I should shift my emotions, so I can only try little by little, but the more I try, the more wrong I get!" Bai Lu also expressed her thoughts.
"To understand Huo Xuan's initial emotions towards Gu Huan, you need to understand the character herself!"
"In this scene, Huo Xuan should portray a heroic and valiant, calm and sharp demeanor when talking to Wang Ze, combining the decisiveness and pride of a general, and showcasing the tough temperament of a military commander."
"But when facing Gu Huan, it was a kind of appreciation and admiration. After hearing Gu Huan point out the flaws, his eyes turned to surprise and seriousness. When he appreciated her, he restrained his sharpness and his expression was restrained and not exaggerated."
Lin Yu then shared his understanding of the character Huo Xuan with Bai Lu.
After all, with over a decade of acting experience across two lifetimes, coupled with the theoretical knowledge gained from formal training, analyzing a character's role is a piece of cake for him.
However, after Lin Yu finished speaking, a prompt suddenly appeared in Lin Yu's mind.
[The host and Bai Lu are acting together; character understanding +1]
Lin Yu was somewhat stunned!
The scene explaining the character can actually improve this ability?
Lin Yu also checked the level of the [Character Understanding] ability.
[Intermediate Role Understanding (150/500)]
Indeed, Lin Yu's understanding of the character is quite profound, and he has already reached the intermediate level.
At this moment, Bai Lu was also stunned.
Because that long-awaited prompt finally appeared in her mind.
[The host and Lin Yu are acting together, character understanding +1]
Finally, the feeling she had always wanted arrived.
At this moment, she had a clear understanding of what Lin Yu had just explained.
This ability is truly amazing.
She was speechless for a moment when she looked at her own [Character Understanding] level.
[Character Understanding (Beginner Level) (5/100)]
The system is going too far!
Is my understanding of my role really that bad?
But at this moment, her confidence was rekindled!
"Lin Yu, let's go over the scene we just did again. I think I'm getting the hang of it!" Bai Lu said, looking at Lin Yu with great anticipation.
Lin Yu looked at Bai Lu with some confusion!
He's only gone a little deeper, and he's already getting aroused?
This might be a bit exaggerated!
However, Lin Yu also wanted to test whether the White Dew was real or fake.
After all, if it's just a test, the truth will come out.
So the two of them started working on this scene.
Meanwhile, Li Huizhu, who was watching Bailu from the side, was also a little curious.
What exactly did Lin Yu say to Bai Lu?
This little girl is like she's on steroids.
Five minutes later.
Lin Yu and Bai Lu also went over the lines and expressions for this scene.
Bai Lu looked even more expectant after rehearsing her lines.
Just then, that familiar notification appeared again.
[The host and Lin Yu are rehearsing their lines. 50% of the scene has been completed. Dialogue skills +1, facial expression control +1]
A familiar feeling is coming.
She felt a warm current flowing through her body.
Bai Lu seemed to understand that this ability would only be triggered and enhanced after perfectly executing a scene.
Lin Yu also received the same system notification.
Of course, he also felt the enhancement brought by Bai Lu.
The emotions conveyed in this scene were clearly on point.
Who says actresses born in 95 can't act?
That's because they weren't trained properly!
Look how much Bai Lu's acting skills have improved under her tutelage!
Bai Lu was even more determined not to let Lin Yu go!
"Little brother! One more time!" Bai Lu looked at Lin Yu with shining eyes and anticipation.
Ten minutes later.
Bai Lu licked her lips with satisfaction.
She is now radiant.
I feel incredibly strong.
She finally achieved a 100% completion rate in the rehearsal.
Both their delivery of lines and control of facial expressions have improved a bit.
This improvement made her control over her performance and lines completely different from before, as if she had improved after half a month of filming on set.
The break is finally over.
"If Bai Lu's performance still doesn't meet your requirements after one or two takes, then let's skip this one and go straight to the first one! I'm afraid it will discourage this girl!" Yu Zheng said with a long sigh.
After all, Bai Lu isn't a professional; she can only make do with the performance.
"That's the only way!" Lee Hye-joo nodded directly.
Lee Hye-joo originally intended to polish a period drama with superb acting skills.
This was a blow to myself right at the beginning.
Li Huizhu looked at Lin Yu and Bai Lu who were walking over.
The two young people have been rehearsing their lines for almost twenty minutes.
I don't know if it was all for nothing.
