A few days ago, the stage play "Love in the Fallen City", directed for the first time by the new Orientalist aesthetic master Ye Jintian and starring powerful actors Wan Qian and Song Yang, has premiered in Shanghai. With its beautiful stage vision and innovative form integration, "Love in the City" allows the audience to harvest an immersive aesthetic experience.
This has to mention the aesthetic skills of director Ye Jintian, Ye Jintian has won the Academy Award for Best Art Director, and he has served as an art and costume director in classic film and television works such as "Daming Palace Words" and "Orange Red", and he is very good at grasping the unique beauty of oriental women.
Just from some of the stills and videos that have flowed out so far, Wan Qian is wearing a variety of sophisticated cheongsam, plus a retro corrugated hot hair, a willow leaf bent eyebrows, full of the style of the times, bright eyes.
Not only is the costume effect stunning, this stage play also innovatively adopts the presentation method of stage + screen, and some more detailed performances are displayed in front of every audience through a translucent giant screen, making many people call out novelty.
Many audiences who walked out of the theater left a long-form movie-watching experience on social media, and the atmosphere of the stage, the elaborate setting, and the detailed embodiment of the aesthetics of costume modeling were all reasons for the audience to feel that the trip was worth it.
Among the main actors, the interpretation of Wan Qian and Song Yang has also received wide acclaim from everyone. Well-known host Cao Kefan also posted a blog praise: "Wan Qian and Song Yang convincing performance restores Zhang Ailing's white tassel and Fan Liuyuan. ”
At the exchange meeting after the previous Rizhao audition, the creators also talked about more cooperation details about this stage play.
Although it is the first time to direct a stage play, Ye Jintian has his own artistic pursuits. He said that he hopes to change the traditional stage drama's interpretation of "passing words" to the audience, and thinks that the interpretation of speaking to the audience and the camera is too blunt. Therefore, he asked the actors to try to speak to each other, perform on the stage in a "whispered" way, interpret the script alive, and let the audience feel the delicate artistic sense of film performance.
Ye Jintian admitted that he had considered many film and stage actors, but few could act well and dare to go on stage. It wasn't until the appearance of actress Wan Qian that he immediately smelled the familiarity of the white tassel. Ye Jintian said that Wan Qian's appearance has a kind of oriental, classical beauty, and she can bring people into the story atmosphere of that era.
For the first cooperation with Ye Jintian, Wan Qian also expressed excitement, she said that she hopes to follow director Ye Jintian to learn beauty and feel the power of beauty, after coming to the crew, she has experienced a total of 3 makeup changes, all in order to improve in makeup and hair clothes, so that the character image is more in line with the character.
She also said that the details of each person in the play are different in order to reflect the personality of different characters, and the crew can be described as painstaking in polishing the details. In the process of cooperation, everyone also constantly communicates with each other's understanding of the script and their understanding of their respective roles, thus forming a good atmosphere of cooperation.
It is reported that the lead actors Wan Qian and Song Yang have put a lot of effort into performing this stage play, and both of them have pushed a lot of work for this purpose, rehearsing wholeheartedly, hoping to present a better performance effect for the audience. As for the actor's efforts, director Ye Jintian said that he saw it in his heart, and said that Wan Qian and Song Yang's interpretation was in place, and the two were very dedicated.
