"Daniel, we will shoot the scene where you are tied to a chair. You need to show confusion and fear. Try to get the feeling first."
"Okay, director.".
Daniel Kaluuya took the script and went to a secluded place to prepare.
Martin called Scarlett again, "Scarlett, the emotions you need to express are also quite complicated. You don't love Daniel. He is the prey, but at the same time you have to reveal a little bit of resistance. A normal person who has been doing this kind of hunting for the family for a long time will have more or less resistance in his heart."
"Understood."
Ten minutes later.
Martin: "Everyone pay attention, let's do it first. Patrick, pay attention to adjusting the camera angle."
At Martin's command, everyone retreated out of the camera. Daniel Kaluuya, Bradley Whitford and Catherine Keener, who played the heroine's parents, and Scarlett, who played "497" and the heroine, also said they were ready.
"Get Out, Act 12, Scene 22, ACTION."
Martin sat behind the monitor, his eyes fixed on the monitor screen.
Daniel Kaluuya's experience as a minor actor in various Meyers Films crews over the years was not in vain. His acting skills have been trained to be very mature, and this black guy himself is also very talented in acting.
When the spoon hit the teacup, Daniel Kaluuya's face showed a blank look.
The camera slowly zoomed in and gave a close-up of his eyes.
In the monitor, Daniel Kaluuya's eyes were confused and full of fear.
This very layered performance is called "emotional progressive performance". It is very difficult for the performer to achieve this effect by controlling the intensity of emotional release.
But Daniel Kaluuya performed very well.
"Cut! Good performance! This one passed."
Martin stood up from the director's chair and walked to Scarlett. "Scarlett, when you go on stage later, look at Daniel first, then look at your 'parents'. Pay attention to what emotions I need. You should know."
Then he said to the two white actors who played the parents: "I will give you two a close-up later. I need you to show that kind of condescending arrogance. Catherine (playing the mother), you may need to express stronger emotions. You need to put yourself into a weird psychiatrist. You look down at Daniel like a high god..."
Martin's acting is always very detailed. He needs actors to express what they want more accurately, so in Martin's movies, there is not much room for actors to play freely.
This may make it difficult for those classic shots that were achieved by accidents to happen, but it also reduces the occurrence of accidents and greatly increases the efficiency of the crew's shooting.
In fact, directors like Martin are the favorites of major production companies.
For example, the Sunglass KingA director who likes to let actors play freely is definitely a nightmare for investors and production companies!
"Drew, when will the props of the deer I want be delivered?"
"I have called to urge them. It will arrive in about fifteen minutes."
"OK, Daniel, Scarlett, we will shoot the scene of you hitting the deer in fifteen minutes. You can prepare your emotions first."
"Understood, Mr. Meyers."
"Got it, Honey."
Sophia was silently taking notes in her notebook. She had used up most of this thick notebook, which contained her thoughts during the filming process.
"Deer: In the script, details related to deer appear three times: the first time is when Chris' girlfriend Ruth hits a deer on the way home. The second time is when Ruth's father hears that they hit a deer and says meaningfully that if one deer dies, there are still thousands of deer. The third time is when Chris stabs Ruth's father to death with the antlers."
"Martin makes deer appear so many times in the film, obviously there is a metaphor in it. In the mid-19th century, American farmers often used the term "black stag" to describe black people who refused to submit to white people, so the plot The deer in the film represents black people, and the words of Ruth's father show his discrimination against black people. There is no difference between black people and deer. If one dies, there will be more. In the end, Chris stabbed Ruth's father to death with the antlers, which represents the resistance from black people. "
"Not only that, there is a hidden line in the plot of Ruth and Chris hitting the deer to death. Martin said that he would add a montage of Chris's memories of his mother's death in a car accident to this plot. In this way, the plot in the second half of the plot where Chris hit the black maid who wanted to harm him but saved her becomes reasonable. ...... "
"Details are everywhere." Sophia concluded.
The shooting continued day by day.
The actors are getting better and better.
Soon, it will be time to shoot Betty Gabriel's most brilliant performance.
"Betty, this scene is a little difficult, but I believe it's nothing for you. You just need to show your performance in the audition. You should know what kind of smile I want. You have to convey a feeling of sadness while smiling. If you can do it like in the audition, with only one eye crying, it will be even more perfect."
"Director, I'm fine."
Betty Gabriel said confidently.
Martin smiled and patted her shoulder, "Well, I believe you're fine."
As the filming progressed, Martin liked this black actress more and more.
Of course, it's not the kind of "love between men and women", but the love of a director meeting a good seedling actor, just like a horse breeder seeing a thousand-mile horse.
Although Betty Gabriel is young, her acting skills have given Martin a natural feeling.
It's a pity that she is not pretty, otherwise she might not be able to become the protagonist and support a drama movie.
"Scene 96, Scene 12, ACTION!"
Martin sat behind the monitor, crossed his legs, supported his chin with his palm, and stared at Betty Gabriel in the camera seriously.
4.0 She stood in front of the window and looked out with a strange look. When she saw the protagonist Chris noticed her, she showed a hypocritical smile.
The next second, a line of tears flowed out of her left eye involuntarily.
The camera zoomed in.
Close-up of the eyes.
The strong conflicting emotions appeared in Betty Gabriel's eyes, as if two souls were fighting in her body, which made Martin applaud.
"Cut! Great, this one passed, take a ten-minute break."
"Betty, how are you feeling? Do you need the psychologist who is with the group to adjust?"
"No, I can do it myself. Thank you, Mr. Meyers."
"No, just call me Martin."
Betty Gabriel was delighted.
(Brothers, please take care of me. Please give me some comments, flowers, collections, and rewards. Thank you.).
