[US Entertainment] Superstar

Chapter 147 Improvisation

Multi-angle and multi-camera shooting, the agent, lead singer, guitarist, audience in the audience, behind-the-scenes personnel next to the stage, etc. were all filmed at the same time.

Cameron Crowe captured Rossall turning his head and smiling at Penny while being handsome. This shot is full of texture, and he feels that it cannot be deleted no matter what!

The ensemble performers reached out their hands under the stage to touch Keanu, who was kneeling and gliding. The crazy energy was so real, it was as if the Rolling Stones were performing on the stage.

There is no need to find a stand-in, Keanu can play very well by himself, the whole person is immersed in the performance, he is a rock star!

"Still Waters!"

"Still Waters!"

"Still Waters!"

The audience really yelled the names only in the movie in unison. They really wanted to listen to one or two more songs, and listening to only one song was completely unsatisfactory.

Although Cameron Crowe had already captured the desired shot, he was also excited to see it, so he didn't call for a stop, but let Keanu and the others continue to perform.

There are five songs for training and rehearsal. Keanu and Jason have already practiced memorably. Now Cameron is going to put these clips in the extras and sell them on DVD.

Audiences have already seen the movie, so why buy the DVD?In addition to favorites, there will be some additional video content.

Several actors have also held back for so long, and of course they have to show their hard-working skills in front of such enthusiastic audiences.

Not just for shooting, but also for making yourself happy.

Eve and others really became spectators, and the whole crew turned the filming of this scene into a small concert. The atmosphere was extremely hot, and they couldn't wait to sing a few more songs.

When the performance of the five songs was finished, the group performers were very excited, their faces were flushed, and some actresses even sat on the shoulders of the male actors, just to see the performance on the stage more clearly.

Invisibly, it was exactly the same as the scene of a rock music festival. Everyone was reluctant to leave the band, and the encore shouted sincerely.

But Cameron Crowe finally called out the sound card, and several members of the band stood in a row, hugged each other's shoulders and bowed to the audience below.

"It's such a surprise, I didn't expect them to make a rock movie."

"Keanu is really dazzling. I just couldn't take my eyes off him."

"Have you seen Eve? She has been watching silently from the side of the stage. Maybe this is love."

"Are these songs original?"

"Who knows where I can buy a Stillwater CD?"

"Really cool!"

The ensemble performers were sweating profusely. The theater was originally relatively narrow, so many people crowded together waving and screaming frantically, and now they still haven't escaped from the state of excitement.

Not only these temporary audiences, but even the cast and crew of the crew are full of admiration.

When the four members of Still Water returned to the backstage, Eve took the lead in applauding. The group of actors suddenly turned themselves into singers, which could not be achieved without several months of practice and cooperation.

Just because of this dedicated attitude is worthy of everyone's praise, not everyone is willing to waste time on it.

Especially Keanu Reeves, everyone's impression of him is always in the field of action movies and science fiction movies. Never expected that he can take time out of his busy schedule to train and play a rock star to life.

It seems that there is really a reason why he is famous and popular!

"I feel like this performance has been going on for a whole century just now, and it takes more energy than any tour I have ever done before." Keanu kept drinking the sports drink handed over by Sam, and his flowered shirt was already soaked in sweat .

In the past, although they performed for an hour or two, they just played the bass quietly. How could it be as sharp as it is now, taking away the aura of the lead singer.

Eve gave a high thumbs up, "If you return to the Sirius band, Rob can give you the position of guitarist."

"I still won't compete with him for the position. It will take at least two or three years for our band to get back together." Fortunately, Keanu has been exercising all the time, otherwise his physical fitness would not be able to sustain it.

He said with special emotion: "I thought that this episode would have to be recorded at least five or six times to pass. Who knew it would be passed once. It's a bit unexpected."

"Who made all of these fit just right? Your performances are great, the extras are very cooperative, and the lighting and sound are perfect."

"Now I feel more refreshed than anything else, it's so cool!"

Keanu finally understood that filming was not just work, it was even fun.

Although the preparation and training were a bit boring, but after shooting this scene, the whole body and mind were comfortable, and all the hard work was worth it.

He didn't care at all whether the judges would appreciate this segment or his performance, the most important thing was that he was comfortable.

Cameron Crowe scrutinized every single one of them, and then his eyes interfered a little.He himself used to interview the rock circle, and now the performance of the Still Water Band is honestly not ranked among the live performances he has seen, even his wife's band is better than this.

But it is enough to put it in the movie. The most important thing is to set off the atmosphere well, and just show how powerful the band is from the side.

"Just now Keanu's performance was great, we will see your performance next, do you think you can surpass him?"

Facing the director's question, Eve pursed her mouth, "We are two completely different types of performances, and we cannot mix them together for comparison."

If Keanu's band performance on the stage just now was enthusiastic, then her next performance will be as warm as water.

According to the plot, after the audience exits, the band members and manager Dick will rest and celebrate together, but they will meet a more business-minded manager-Dennis Hope. This is Jimmy Fallon. character of.

Dick has always been with the band, helping them operate, caring for each member, as if he is the No.5 member of the band.But after the four members of the Still Water band saw Dennis' operational ability and promised conditions, they kicked Dick off without hesitation.

They will take a plane to New York to find more opportunities, a bigger stage, and better development.

This is a sign of a change in the plot, where a well-behaved band gradually collapses because of fame and fortune.

Now the agent was left behind, and the one who was left behind later was Penny played by Eve.

In fact, even Cameron himself doesn't know what to expect from Eve's next performance, because there is only a simple one-sentence description in the script.

Her character, Penny, will be standing under the stage where the band just performed, alone in this trash-filled building.

Obviously a few hours ago, the audience here was boiling and full of people, but now it is quiet and chaotic.

According to Cameron's plan, he planned to shoot such a shot, let the camera push from far to near, and shoot a comparison.

But he is looking forward to Eve's acting skills, to see if there will be any surprises.

The staff of the props group and the scenery group saved a little effort, all the scenery was ready-made, and the places where the group performers stood and caroused just now were littered with rubbish.

Eve was wearing an orange short skirt, stepping on the floor with her bare feet, holding a bright red rose in her hand.

"After a while, the camera's big crane arm will give you a silhouette shot from above the theater, and then gradually shake it down. You can play it as you like."

Cameron just wanted to shoot a comparison of a lively and noisy scene, and as long as Eve's performance is not too excessive, he will pass it directly.

"Play as you please?" Eve didn't have any plans for this scene before, and now most of the actors are resting in the background, only the director and a few staff members are here, and the whole theater looks extraordinarily empty and quiet.

She thought about it, if she were Petunia, what would she do at this time?

Perhaps Penny will show her truest side in this deserted place. She wears a mask in front of Rossall, William and the others. No one knows her real name, and no one knows what is going on in her heart. something.

Facing Stillwater's New York project, Penny must know that Rosol will return to his real girlfriend or wife, and she wants to seize the last chance to prove that she and Rosol are true love.

In an empty theater, she certainly doesn't want to think about things that make people upset.

So Cameron, who was sitting in front of the monitor, saw Eve holding a rose, dancing on her tiptoes on the floor full of confetti.

There is no trick at all, the movement range is very small, the body is swaying, and occasionally stretches the arms or calves, whatever is comfortable, does not put the camera in the eyes at all, and does not deliberately face the camera at all.

The cameraman was about to operate the big crane to slowly go down to take a close-up, and Cameron immediately whispered through the radio communicator: "Don't worry, don't worry, keep this high-altitude overhead shot."

At this time, Eve completely regarded herself as Penny, even though there were no lines in this description, she firmly attracted the director's attention with her excellent and casual body movements.

Her movements were not large, with a childlike innocence and sweetness on her face, and she danced lightly with her bare feet.

"Hurry up, come down and take a close-up of her! From head to sole."

Although the cameraman was a little dissatisfied with the director's temporary command, he still followed it honestly.

At this time, Eve was very playful. She stepped on the colored paper on the ground with both feet, and then simulated the state of skating on the smooth floor, and she was extremely relaxed.

The soft light shone on her from the top of her head, and her golden hair was shining brightly. The whole image was different from Petunia's previous state, but it was very touching, because this state was very real.

Perhaps it is when Penny reveals her true nature the most in the whole story!

She had a great time alone on the stage, and the smile on her face was free from any impurities, giving people the charm of calming down and appreciating carefully.

Cameron originally only wanted to take a few seconds of shots, but now he took several minutes without knowing it. The girl spinning and jumping with her eyes closed is really beautiful.

Who knew that Eve felt a little dizzy just after standing on tiptoe for a few rounds, so she sat down on the floor and rested for a while without hesitation, and at the same time, she didn't forget to play with the red rose in her hand, sniff it, kiss it occasionally one time.

This improvisation was so wonderful that Cameron secretly made up his mind that even if the length of the movie increases, he must include this large segment in the feature film!

The casual performance of this girl in front of me is absolutely seamless and wonderful.

No need for a line assist to make the scene unforgettable for the audience.
