After the comeback 598 was tied up and the reporter's interview session was over, the crew was up and running quickly, and everyone was ready to start filming the first scene.

Samora didn't react at first, but he saw Hugo, Samuel and others walking towards the camera position, and the drama manager Stacy Cher gave him a look, and Samora immediately understood, took the script and ran in the direction of Hugo, "Hugo, the next scene is the first scene to shoot the content of your collaboration with Samuel, I marked it with an orange highlighter." ”

Hugo took the script and looked at it, and sure enough, it was very conspicuous, he looked at Samora with a smile, "You don't have to mark my script so carefully, just tell me which scene it is, I will read and be familiar with it myself." "Samora was on his first day at work, and the whole body was winding up so tightly that you could clearly feel that he was trying to get into the role, and the truth was that Samora did a great job, far exceeding Hugo's expectations.

When Samora heard Hugo say this, he smiled and nodded, "Is there anything I need to do next?" ”

"No, you can rest." Hugo gave Samora an affirmative look, "You've had a hard morning, let's relax." ”

Samora didn't breathe a sigh of relief immediately, but asked seriously, "Hugo, it shouldn't matter if I'm standing near here to watch the shooting, right?" ”

"If you're not bored...... Hugo shrugged, Joseph seemed to be around while he was filming, "I thought you were only interested in bands." ”

"That's right, but the crew still looks like there's still a lot to learn, so I'm willing to touch a little bit more." Samora's personality is very hearty, and even after a busy morning, she still has a simple smile, which makes Hugo laugh.

When Hugo began to sit down and read the script, Samora stood quietly next to him - trying not to let himself get in the way of the work of others, and then he saw that the crew, which was still a little lazy, was suddenly vigorous, and everyone walked with the wind, raising the whole speed, and in less than a quarter of an hour, Stacy came over and whispered to Samora, "It's all ready, Hugo?" ”

How did Samora know, he looked at Hugo who was reading the script carefully, and he didn't know whether he should interrupt Hugo directly, or should he wait, this kind of thing Joseph didn't explain, Samora stood in place and was a little panicked, after all, he was still inexperienced.

Fortunately, Hugo had already filmed a few scenes, and his experience was very good, so he took the initiative to raise his head, looked around, and then saw Stacy, and said with a smile, "Three minutes." Stacy immediately nodded and was ready to explain to the crew - shooting began three minutes later, Hugo looked at Samora, "When this happens, you remind me, I will give you time, and then let the drama and the director coordinate with them." I'm not ready, I'll sue you directly. ”

Samora nodded and made a note of it. Hugo didn't say anything more, just lowered his head and continued to recite the script.

One of the biggest features of Quentin's work is talk, he and Woody Allen are famous Hollywood talkers, and the lines in their works are verbose but distinctive, these talkers are the essence of their films, so the actors must not only memorize the lines fluently, but also understand the meaning and present it in the way the director wants.

Three minutes are fleeting, but Hugo is a little nervous, Hugo has been completely isolated from acting for most of the past half a year, and now he is back into acting, Hugo feels that this is not an easy task, and today he has to challenge black comedy, which makes things even more difficult.

Hugo stood up and jumped a few steps in place, adjusted his breathing, and then walked over to Stacy with the script, who was standing next to a retro sedan that was placed on a trailer with its engine already started and ready to shoot at any moment. After seeing Hugo and Samuel converge, Stacy briefly explained the direction of Quentin's shot, and then let the two of them get into the car.

The difficulty of filming today's opening scene is very low, that is, a conversation between Vincent played by Hugo and Jules played by Samuel sitting in the car, and the scene is about two minutes before and after, the shooting is not difficult, and the effect depends on the performance of the actors.

The two-minute dialogue is not closely related to the plot, but it is a scene that sets the stage for the film's dark humor, which is similar to the scene of the restaurant dialogue at the beginning of the "Reservoir Dogs" movie, and the characters are outlined little by little through the dialogue. However, because the room for the characters in Quentin's works is relatively limited, that is to say, the personalities of the characters are not too rich, so the opening scene can basically be said to be the tone of the character's personality. This means that, while simple, is important.

After sitting in the passenger seat, Hugo and Samuel first rehearsed the script, not only for rehearsal, but also for the actors to find their state, but Hugo still felt that he did not grasp Vincent's performance accurately enough, so he called Quentin over, "Quentin, do you want me to relax the role of Vincent, or be more restrained?" ”

Hugo is now an experienced actor, he knows that communication with the director is a very important link, and the role of Vincent is different from Hugo's previous work, Hugo does not have a focus to exert force, so he needs to have more of his own understanding.

Quentin said, "I'll give you plenty of room to play, you show your own understanding, and then we'll see the effect on the screen, and then we can discuss, how about it?" "Vulgar" is Quentin's second work, and his understanding of acting is naturally not as profound as that of professional actors such as Hugo and Samuel, so he has always been very self-aware and leaves the decision of acting to the actors themselves.

Hugo nodded in understanding, watched Quentin walk back behind the camera, and took a deep breath; Samuel, who was sitting next to him, looked at Hugo, who was so nervous, and laughed, "Don't be too nervous, just follow your understanding." ”

Hugo smiled at Samuel and began to adjust his breathing, to be honest, he hadn't acted for more than half a year, Hugo also felt a little itchy in his bones, and when he was about to devote himself to a new role, in addition to being nervous, the excitement in his heart also began to flutter like butterfly wings, which made Hugo deeply feel the kind of fanaticism and turmoil about acting in his bones.

But after Quentin's "start shooting" shout, Hugo always felt that something was wrong, and he couldn't tell what was wrong, which made Hugo take the initiative to shout "card" after saying two lines, and then hurriedly expressed his apologies to the crew members, "I'm really sorry, give me a minute to adjust." ”

Hugo is no longer the rookie when he was filming "Smell the Fragrance and Know the Woman", after the accumulation of the previous films, he is already a very good actor, so he closed his eyes and let his slightly irritable mood settle down, adjust his state and start filming again.

The second shot was obviously much better.

Jules drove slowly and casually, "Sue me what the hell is going on with the marijuana bar?" ”

"Okay, what do you want to know?" Vincent seemed very cooperative, and there was a bit of eagerness to try.

"It's not illegal to smoke marijuana there?" Jules asked curiously.

Vincent immediately began to say in a beaming voice, "Yes, but not absolutely. You can't just walk into a restaurant and start rolling marijuana there. I mean, if you want to smoke, it's best to have a cool time at home or in a designated place. ”

"Those marijuana bars?" Jules said he didn't understand.

"Okay, let's put it that way." Vincent decided to explain in detail and simply, so that Jules understood, "Buy big. Hemp is legal and has a large one. Hemp is legal if in large. In the hemp bar, the sale is large. Hemp is also legal to carry large. Hemp is also legal, but listen, if you are stopped by the Dutch, they can't search your body, they don't have the right to do so. ”

"I'm going, I'm going, I'm going to go!" Jules immediately sighed, and a smile appeared on his face, which made Vincent laugh too.

But at this time, Quentin's piercing "card" came over, the shooting just now was very smooth and smooth, and Hugo's lines were not jammed or wrong, but they were actually interrupted by Quentin, which made many people in the crew puzzled, and Samora looked at Quentin in confusion.

Quentin stood there and thought about it, then trotted to catch up with the trailer, standing next to the passenger seat and said to Hugo, "There was actually no problem with the performance just now, but I always felt ...... You know, there's always feeling like there's something missing. ”

Hugo himself nodded, this time he also operated according to his previous practice, understanding the role, digging into the role, and then presenting it through his own understanding, but inexplicably, Hugo felt that something was missing, saying that the mystery was a spark, and the actual point was the highlight of the character's personality that immediately popped up.

Quentin stood there and thought for a moment, "Hugo, you know, I don't have a lot of research on acting, I'm not sure, should you be a little more relaxed, or, uh...... Nervous? ”

"Quentin, can I?" Samuel sat in the driver's seat and said aloud, after getting a nod from Quentin in response, Samuel met Hugo's turned gaze, "Hugo, I think you're still a little too tight, you always think about comedy and humor, but this tense feeling will restrict your performance." You know, maybe your performance process is so smooth that you can't see it at all, but the effect of the lines is lacking in spark, just because deep down you still seem a little deliberate. ”

Samuel's words made Hugo fall into deep thought, "However, if you want me to make suggestions for improvement, I'm sorry, I can't help it, your performance just now looks perfect......" Samuel also looked helpless, which made Hugo fall silent in the passenger seat...... [Provided].
