Regarding Zhai Tianlin , the famous director Xie Fei, who is already 77 years old, posted a long article a few days ago, which talked about the various problems faced by Beijing Film Academy education.
To summarize simply, Nortel is very good at cultivating practical and creative film talents, but it is not suitable for cultivating academic masters and doctoral students. However, due to various reasons, it has to recruit many masters and doctoral students in the name of creation, including him.
In addition to creating these masters and doctoral students, in order to meet graduation regulations, they also need to write various semester papers and graduation papers in a straightforward manner...
In Xie Fei's view, it is not appropriate and unnecessary to let creators write papers like scholars, but this is an issue of the education system that cannot be avoided at present.
Indeed, film creators such as screenwriters, directors, and actors are basically two types of people with scholars who study film theory and history. The quality of the paper is not related to business ability. Of course, plagiarism is another matter.
Out of curiosity, I found a group of papers written by film creators in various periods, want to see what they wrote? How is it written?
includes Zhao Wei, who graduated from Beijing Film Academy, Xu Qing , Chen Kun , Huang Xiaoming , Yu Feihong , Wang Zhiwen, Zhang Fengyi, Zufeng , and Zhang Junning from Central University, whose paper styles are completely different, and Feng Gong, who everyone "wanted him to death", as well as several famous directors such as Lu Chuan , Mei Feng, Cao Baoping , and Xu Haofeng ; Wen Muye, who made a big splash last year with " I am not a medicine god ", and Wang Xiaoshuai and Lou Ye, who recently shined in Berlin, have also found their papers when they were students.
To be fair, there are quite a few that have written well!
Let’s take you to see below—
1, Zhao Wei: "On the Relationship between Real Performance and Instinctive Performance"
This is Zhao Wei’s undergraduate thesis. At this time, she had already performed in " Return to the Condor Heroes ". So will she mention this experience in her thesis?
has no at all. In the article , she first explained the difference between film performance and dramatic performance, then briefly described the history of film performance, and finally borrowed Antonioni's theory to express her understanding of instinctual performance and true performance, indicating that instinctual performance and true performance should be integrated.
A very standard undergraduate thesis.
After Zhao Wei became popular because of Xiaoyanzi, she once said in an interview that the performance of Xiaoyanzi at that time was "too eye-catching, I don't think I can accept it myself."
I wonder if this "can't accept it" is also reflected in the paper?
2, Xu Qing: "Different Creative Ways to Characters"
Xu Qing's graduation thesis combines her experience of playing Chen Kaige in college " Singing " and Ling Zifeng's "Mad" to explain her views on performance. What is more interesting is that she mentioned chatting with Chen Kaige after joining the group, "I talked for two or three hours every day, and I felt that in his heart, one shot and one look were an article, and what was presented to the audience was a two-second shot, and behind it he could tell a novel."
Then Xu Qing talked about the first day of filming, and she had an article on the left and right in her mind, and she couldn't shoot it well at all. Then Chen Kaige told her that
advanced performance was ignorant.
is very enlightening! I can’t help but want to read Chen Kaige’s graduation thesis, but unfortunately I didn’t find it.
3, Chen Kun: "My Perspective of Personalized Performance"
I believe that thanks to Zhai Tianlin, many people have rush to read Chen Kun's papers.
His paper quotes many theories and writes about the process of finding roles in his graduation drama, but he does not quote much of his performance experience. He still analyzes his performance knowledge more.
This is quite similar to Zhao Wei's paper style.
is no wonder he is a good friend.
4, Huang Xiaoming: "The Dialectical Relationship between "fuzzy" and "personalization""
Because they happen to be talking about the personality of performance, Huang Xiaoming and Chen Kun's papers are next to each other in the monographs included in the papers of Beijing Film Academy.
When he wrote about the designer in "Let's Get Married", in order to make this character remembered and conform to his professional characteristics, he designed a small action for him that likes to bite his pen.
's evaluation of himself is: "It may not be enough or ridiculous to think about it now, but for me at that time, it was of progressive significance for the character creation of characters."
is inexplicably quite cute.
Huang Xiaoming also wrote a lot of Jiang Wen 's performances in his paper. He likes and admires his "Jiang Wen-style" performance method.
If you don’t read the paper, it will be difficult to associate Huang Xiaoming and Jiang Wen. But after searching Huang Xiaoming's Weibo, there was nothing mentioned about Jiang Wen. It turned out that this was a deep admiration buried in his heart...
5, Yu Feihong: "On the Supreme Realm of Performance"
Yu Feihong is now basically a benchmark figure for independent women in everyone's mind. She was only in her twenties when she wrote this paper. It talked about her experience of filming Wang Ying's "Happy and Blessing Club".
She wrote that she especially liked the role she played, "It's the kind of role I dreamed of." She made a lot of preparations before filming. As a result, she took a fourteen-hour flight to San Francisco. When she got off the plane, she was picked up to the set to film the first scene of killing her son in a trance.
When her physical and mental state are very close to the character, she recalled that when she was filming this scene, she really had hallucinations like the heroine, and after filming, she became paralyzed.
Finally she concluded that this is the happiest moment of being an actor - she tasted the feeling of unity of body and mind in the performance.
"Xi Fu Club"
6, Zhang Junning: "Legal Issues in the Management of Actors of Performers"
Zhang Junning This article is a master's thesis, which is 242 pages long and can be awarded the longest thesis award for actors. If you read it carefully, you will find it interesting. This is an actor who is giving various information to the entertainment industry as an author.
For example, it says that commission commissions are unfair, which means that in the Taiwan performing arts brokerage industry, the commission ratio of artists in the industry is ranging from 10% to 50%, and the number of newcomers is even as high as 70%.
The dispute between Jolin Tsai’s studio, Huang Shengyi and Stephen Chow’s termination of contracts, and even the suicide of Korean star Zhang Ziyan are all cases studied by Zhang Junning.
Her paper is really too long. If you are interested in revelations in the circle, you can search and take a look.
7, Zhang Fengyi: "Self and Role"
Zhang Fengyi's graduation thesaurus was included in the first article of the performance textbook of Beijing Electric Power. The content is quite detailed and the level is very high. He shows that actors should not only play roles that are similar to themselves, but also play roles that are far away from themselves. And take Zhao Dan and as their role model.
Then he used his experiences in "Camel Xiangzi" and "Treasure Hunt Outside the Frontier" to explain how he got into the character.
What is more interesting is this section. In order to experience the feeling of Xiangzi's coachman, he not only had to chat with the coachman, but also looked at the 1920s cartoons to find the character's temperament, but he also put on the coachman's coat and went to the entrance of the Beijing Film Academy for a month to pull the car -
8, Lu Chuan: "Author in the System - Coppola Research in the New Hollywood Background"
Lu Chuan's paper is very high, and his views are highly consistent with his later creative practice.
paper studies Coppola movies under the new Hollywood system, and excerpts one of them to see -
so you can understand why Lu Chuan filmed " Nine-Level Demon Tower " and "
9. Wen Muye: "Analysis and Application of the Local Interpretation of Robert McGee's Story"
=
Wen Muye analyzed in detail the screenwriter's control of the story's "main control idea" in this paper written by , Wang Hongwei, and teacher . This passage shows that his creation of " Medicine God " seems to have implemented similar ideas. He wrote in his paper -
After "The Medicine God" became popular, Wen Muye once said in an interview that every crying point and laughing point in the film was carefully designed. What kind of emotional concentration should be achieved at each node? Is it crying, a sore nose, a tickling, or a laughing point? All of them have been accurately calculated.
So you will understand through this paper. Wen Muye definitely checks "I am not a God of Medicine" in minutes.
10, Wang Xiaoshuai: "Fellini: The Movie of Thinking"
Recently, "年年年年 " was very popular at the Berlin Film Festival, so we also searched for director Wang Xiaoshuai. This article is a selection of his graduation thesis.
paper is written very seriously, and even a list analysis of the plot clues of "Sweet Life".
But I believe that compared to the paper, everyone wants to watch Wang Xiaoshuai’s new film more.
Wang Xiaoshuai finished reading the papers in Berlin
. We found that most of the papers written by these film workers when they were studying are not highly related to their creative experience. Many of their preferences and tendencies may be consistent, but if you insist on discovering something, it would be too far-fetched. The words
reflect the understanding and perception of movies by many creators at that time, and vividly reflect the process of their attempts to establish a connection with the art of movies.
But in the final analysis, the film and television works in practice are their "papers", and this study will never end with graduation.
