Although there are many good works in the entertainment industry, there have been constant discussions about "bad movies" in recent years.
There is a question: "Does the actor know that he is acting in a bad movie?"
has said that the actor himself does not know.
Because the actor cannot see the script in advance, or the consequences of the shooting cannot be expected after seeing it, etc.
In short, in a word, the actors don’t know.
But recently, an interview with actor Guo Xiaoting tore off this fig leaf.
That is, in most cases, actors or practitioners with a little discernment probably know whether they are making bad movies.
Wang Jing once said that he was invited to watch a movie. When he watched
less than one-third of the time, he knew that the drama was not good. The person who watched
is still like this, I don’t know the person who played it, you can think about it.
Why do actors and directors make bad movies?
is probably inseparable from the word fame and fortune.
01. Actors know it is a bad movie, but they can shoot
Actors Ning Jing Although there are not many works now, if they are classified, they are considered powerful.
She once said that as an actor, of course she is unwilling to not pinch or anything else, because this will affect her reputation, but if the director is willing to give her 300 million, it doesn’t matter if she just pinched.
Although she said it easily, it was not impossible.
After all, in the entertainment industry, it is not uncommon for an actor to give hundreds of millions of dollars.
After all, in Ningjing, reputation cannot be as good as money.
Actors like Ning Jing who have been famous for a long time and have good savings can put down their figure and not pay attention to it. Young actors have nothing to stick to.
Guo Xiaoting is a child star and debuted in "Sword and Fairy", and is still quite famous compared to actors of the same age.
starts at a high level and becomes famous early, so I am a little bit arrogant.
has some artistic pursuit.
But when she encountered bad movies, she also took photos of them correctly.
When shooting, you can do nothing about emotions.
Just follow the director's requirements, and then smile.
is at a point, cry.
Find another place and pose.
Finally, as soon as the stunt music was launched, the actor himself didn't know what he was filming, but the finished film came out.
"It's like shooting an advertisement, just like several pictures are put together, and the emotions are incoherent. You will think that what you are doing."
Some people say that this is during the shooting, and she didn't know before the shooting.
actually knows it too.
Because before shooting, actors will audition. It would be fine if you didn't try it, but if you were selected by the crew and check it out on the same spot, after understanding the script, you will probably know the level of this team.
But she still took photos.
After all, for actors, the worst thing is not to make bad movies, but to have no scenes to shoot.
is just after the filming, actors like Guo Xiaoting who have a little bottom line will pray that the bad movies he made will never be released.
But all they can do is pray.
Moreover, they themselves even know their shortcomings better than outsiders.
filter is too big, and the face is so white.
does not memorize the lines, use dubbing everything.
is not attentive to film, but marketing is very hard.
Because these are things they have done themselves.
So, except for some actors with ordinary qualities, most actors know that they are making bad movies.
Of course, the grievances of actors are not cheap.
First-line actors often pay hundreds of millions of dollars.
is a second-tier and third-tier, and a drama is tens of millions.
Mao Xiaotong In 2017, he was still an actor outside the fifth tier and had no fame. The final payment for a TV series was as high as 12.5 million yuan.
If you add the previous few payments, a TV series with a shooting cycle of about 3 months will earn about 25 million yuan.
The salary levels of other actors are very different. You can also infer that.
Chen Haomin , who became famous for "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", has made countless "bad movies" in recent years.
is called the "king of bad movies", but he is not concerned about it.
instead directly expressed that filming is for money.
Wu Mengda also implicitly said that making bad movies may be because the other party’s money can meet your needs.
is like a bad movie, and there are actors on variety shows.
Qin Hao has always had a good reputation in performance, but he is different from other powerful actors who are famous for their literature and art. He has a lot of them on variety shows.
Because he said that if he didn't appear on variety shows, he would eventually make bad movies.
Because he wants to make money and live.
After he became a variety show, he had money and confidence to avoid taking bad movies.
At first glance, these actors all make sense.
After all, ideals are built on survival.
But Qin Hailu once said bluntly that actors are really not short of money. Even if an actor like her is not very commercial, a play is enough for ordinary people to live their lives.
So, even if the actors cannot be said to be very rich, they are basically within the range of not having enough money.
After all, actor Wang Chuanjun said sincerely: "When I was the poorest, I had only 1 million yuan in my card." It was only 2006.
So, it's not so much that actors have to make bad movies in order to survive.
is worse than saying that it is really too much to make bad movies, and they can't refuse.
Of course, some people insist on saying that tens of thousands of temporary workers in Hengdian are also actors, so that is a bit nitpicking.
But is it just a problem for actors to make bad movies? Obviously not.
After all, many times, actors just passively decide whether to act on their own, and cannot decide whether there are bad movies.
What actors can do is to try to make bad movies less bad, which is the so-called "people's protection drama."
Objectively speaking, bad movies have their own market.
02. Where do bad movies come from? There are some bad movies in
, which were taken by someone to work hard.
is a bad thing without knowing it.
For example, Zhang Han 's " Gentlemen of East Eighth District ". Although Zhang Han thought it was ridiculed by the group after the photo was shot, he thought it was very good.
He was an idol drama actor and once said to the public that this was his hard work for many years.
In order to make this drama well, he solicited a large number of opinions from people born in the 1990s and 2000s.
But in the end, a greasy, standard middle-aged man aesthetic bad movie was shot.
But most of them are works that are eager for quick success and instant benefits.
shoot whatever is popular in the market, follow the trend, and do not have time to meticulously craft the works, everything is to keep up with the trend.
" Bright Sword " became popular.
Various anti-Japanese dramas have emerged like bamboo shoots after a rain.
In order to make up for the roughness of production, these dramas are extremely exaggerated in the plot to attract attention.
A bandit, riding a motorcycle, holding Gatlin , extremely proud.
makes a lot of money on the topic.
Xianxia drama became popular, one after another.
stories are similar, they are all different, they are all life-and-life, and the gods do nothing, just to die for the little love in the world.
not only has the same plot, but also the costumes are exactly the same.
There are several different dramas, and the actors' costumes are all used by each other.
looks the same as a uniform at first glance.
not only have the same clothing, but also the same style.
actresses all have long hair in middle part and fluttering white clothes.
male actors are all dragon beard bangs regardless of their beauty or ugliness.
Even if Chen Weiting , which is particularly unsuitable for this look, is still the case.
From anti-Japanese dramas to fairy tales, from modern sweet dramas to suspense dramas, from criminal investigation films to military dramas, this is not uncommon.
Similar plots, similar shapes, and unearthy plots, including fine but bad movies.
So, are anyone watching the bad movies in these works?
not only has, but also many. Who will watch
again?
fans.
Around 2014, a group of artists appeared in front of the public as singing and dancing idols.
is different from traditional artists. Their works focus is not on film and television dramas or songs, but on themselves.
Usually, they all have beautiful or personal appearances.
has a keen sense of market touch.
always appears in public as a glamorous identity.
has attracted many teenagers with personal charm.
Then, the crowd of this movie gradually expanded, and the range of fans they attracted gradually expanded.
Their words will be forwarded millions or even tens of millions of times on social platforms.
Their promotional photos are treasured by fans.
They don’t have to do anything. In a sense, they are the “popular lovers of fans.”
These artists are called traffic artists.
Of course, many traffic artists also have their own things to attract fans.
Some are singing, some are dancing, and some are acting.
But after all, what fans love is not talent, but their person.
They sing and the record can sell millions of copies in a few minutes.
They dance on TV and the ratings of the show can rush up.
They act in TV series, and fans can drive a bunch of mobile phones and TVs alone to make data for them.
Because of the huge purchasing power of traffic artists and spontaneous behavior of krypton gold for idols, the dramas with traffic artists participating naturally become popular and topical.
This is a natural advantage for the producer.
In the past few years, most of the TV series with high attention have participated by traffic artists.
So, in many cases, it is not so much a traffic artist participating in a work.
is better to say that it is a promotional video tailored for traffic artists.
Many times, these works will be directly bound to artists.
forms the "XX work" pattern.
In these works, traffic artists are the absolute protagonists.
All scenes should highlight their beauty and handsomeness. The
filter is turned on to the maximum, and the makeup is unrealistic, and sometimes it is not rejected as actors who completely change their heads. It doesn’t matter whether they act well or not. As long as they are there, there will be traffic.
Although there are also many people who work hard and act well in the traffic.
But this mode leads to the only "traffic theory".
is tilted to traffic from pay to production.
has led to other important positions, such as screenwriters, supporting roles, props, etc., not receiving too good support.
works are of natural balanced quality.
is even more. Some traffic films do nothing in real people. Most of them rely on stand-in and dubbing, and they just show their faces. In this case, the probability of producing high-quality products is even lower.
But as mentioned above, it doesn’t matter if it’s not a high-quality product, anyway, fans will pay.
For the producer, it can make money and save trouble, so why not do it?
03. What should I do?
After all, there are only two sources of bad movies.
actors, produced by filming.
, and the root of these two is still to make money.
makes money, but after all, this is still an industry and a job.
On the basis of making money, the actors use a little snack, experience the role, work harder on their own, and use a stand-in for things like running and walking, and use a substitute for the most ordinary lines.
See the script and experience it carefully. Don’t know what you are shooting after finishing the filming.
, and the producer should not just follow the market to the point of kitsch.
Don’t just focus on traffic to save trouble.
A truly good work can still have a market and reputation even if it does not follow the trend.
" Mountains and Seas " is a drama that has no popular plots and gorgeous costumes, but it conquered a crowd of audiences.
plays Rezayi, plays Debao Bai Yufan and a group of young actors also stand out.
Similarly, there is no traffic and the theme is not pleasing to "Set Up the Stage". Once
was broadcast, it swept the list and the discussion continued. " Starting " produced by
is a small production. The starring Zhao Jinmai and Bai Jingting are related to traffic, but neither is on the front line.
made the show a hit of the year.
The popular " Kunlun Temple HTML " starring Pan Yueming and Jiang Chao are both middle-aged fat people, and the heroine Zhang Yuqi has never been a first-line star.
has such various differences, which means that as long as you are careful, reputation and market are not a problem.
traffic is the way to attract popularity, but it is by no means the only way.
Following the trend is a shortcut to creating hot products, but it is by no means the best way.
Actors who perform bad movies are making quick money and a means to gain a foothold in the industry, but it is not and should not be the most useful means.
After all, I want long-term stability in the industry.
After all, we must respect the audience, the market, the industry, and the aesthetics.
Only by being down-to-earth can you walk well and steadily.
