On November 1, the New Wave Forum gathered industry leaders to discuss the topic of "actors". Song Zhanling, director of the Theoretical Research Division of the China Filmmakers Association, producer Jia Zhiqi, director Li Mo, producer Yan Dandan and other industry insiders held in-depth discussions on the topics of concern to the above industries.
Several industry insiders bluntly said that many young actors seamlessly joined the group before they grew up, resulting in a lot of negative news, and they called on young actors not to take the interests too seriously, and to choose the role that suits them, in order to achieve a win-win situation.
The producers appealed to the actors not to take profit too seriously
You should choose the role that suits you
As the acting environment changes, the definition of a quality actor varies. The requirements of the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television for literary and artistic workers cover many aspects such as "professionalism" and "artistic ethics".
As for how to define high-quality actors, Song Zhanling, director of the Theoretical Research Department of the China Filmmakers Association, believes that high-quality actors are embodied in two aspects, solid professional skills and good professional ethics. The profession of actor has its particularity, with the dissemination of the work gradually gained attention and became a public figure, identity and role have a symbiotic relationship between each other, bearing inevitable public responsibility, so to shoulder a certain sense of social responsibility.
Producer Jia Zhiqi believes that the current acting environment is different from previous years, and some young actors directly and seamlessly join the group before they have the opportunity to grow and mature, resulting in a lot of negative things. Society, agencies, and old artists should give them more room and opportunities to grow.
Producer Yan Dandan shared the behind-the-scenes casting of "Si Teng" and "Jun Jiuling" and said that actors need to achieve each other with good plays, grow in good plays, and at the same time, do not regard interests as so important, and by taking on roles that suit them, they can fully devote themselves to acting well.
Regarding how to improve the professional standards of actors, as a young director who often cooperates with young actors, Li Mo believes that actors, staff, including behind-the-scenes practitioners, must first improve their professional standards, and secondly, they must respect each other, grow each other, and establish a relationship of trust in the project. He said: "Everyone should have greed, but we have to put greed into creation, if you put all your attention into creation, it will be a good direction to improve professionalism." ”
Casting does not have a rating on traffic
"Octagonal Pavilion Mystery Fog" has undergone four years of polishing and three substitutions
In recent days, the casting problems of Ge Weilong and Ge Qiqiao in "The First Burning Incense", the appearance of the ancient dolls have caused a lot of controversy, what problems and dislocations exist in the casting standards and processes in film and television dramas? How does the rating of film and television drama projects relate to the position of the actor?
Yan Dandan introduced the standards and processes for film and television drama casting. She said that the selection of actors does not have a traffic rating, but according to a complete set of actor adaptation mechanism. The casting team will have an accurate label for the character, combine the previous big data analysis of its personality and characteristics, and then combine the actor's personality, shooting cycle, cost performance and many other dimensions to match. In the follow-up, the makeup audition method will be adopted, and each character will select three or five people to audition and choose the best one.
Jia Zhiqi believes that actors and dramas have an absolute degree of adaptation, and when this degree of adaptation is established, the whole drama is established. Her "Great Detective of the Republic of China" and "Octagonal Pavilion Mystery Fog" both follow this principle. Among them, "Octagonal Pavilion Mystery Fog" has undergone four years of polishing, three times of substitution, each actor is familiar with the heart, and the casting is natural.
When Li Mo was casting in "I'm Good in Other Places", he also saw Bai Yufan's humility and "no drifting" that was different from other young actors, and quickly set him. He will also watch the performance of the actors on Weibo, and through their life, personal qualities, etc., see more aspects of the actors and have an in-depth understanding.
On the topic of "traffic theory" and mesozoic actors facing "role limitations", Jia Zhiqi shared his views.
Jia Zhiqi believes that in the current environment, the content is blowout, the information is transparent, and has been seeking change in innovation and innovation in change, and the diversification of the market has led to the behavior of young actors and mature actors in the process of playing. It's a process, and when it's over, it's going to be a good thing soon.
Create a virtuous symbiotic relationship
The "Qingyun Project" empowers actors
The film and television industry needs good actors with both "acting skills" and "artistic virtue", and also needs to provide soil and platforms for these actors to grow and be "seen". So, how should you provide valuable empowerment for actors?
Song Zhanling said that in the career of acting, the producer should concretize the things that should be pursued and the audience's demands, and as an actor, they should do a good job in basic skills, understand themselves, and understand the projects they are exposed to, form their own professional judgments, and do what they should do with dedication and seriousness.
Jia Zhiqi believes that at the social level, it is necessary to give back to the society with positive energy, universal values, and the moral bottom line of being a person, which is not only for the actors, but also for the staff, the expectation of the industry, she hopes that on the basis of the time and place, the "people" will be done, and she hopes that the brokerage company will empower more outside the acting skills.
Wang Juan, director of operations of Weibo star, said that the Weibo platform has been discovering new people and nurturing new people. For newcomers and mature actors, different emphasis is placed on operation, and the emphasis on new talents is excavated and displayed, and targeted training is provided for mature actors to tap the potential of more diversified tracks. The "Qingyun Project" is such an empowerment plan that supports actors of different types and stages.
Finally, the "Qingyun Plan - Weibo Actor Support Special Operation Activity" was also officially launched under the witness of the guests at this forum.
