148. For some people, revision is sharpening

Staying up late to work overtime may be a burden to some people.

Not paid yet.

But in Wan Changsheng's opinion, it is an extraordinary experience.

Around midnight, the actors left one after another. Before leaving, they came to tell the prop team that they had worked hard. Wan Changsheng thought that two or three of the old actors looked familiar, but they couldn't call them out their names, for fear of being embarrassed by calling them wrong.

The most important thing is that all his attention is on the drawing of props.

Making a large number of objects with foam, there are also city wall ladder steps that are cut and bound with wooden boards and then colored. More importantly, there are a large number of passionate parade and gathering characters on the background boards.

Wan Changsheng simply participated in the production and design of props and objects, and after moving the wooden boards a few times with great strength, he mainly drew characters on the newly unfolded background board.

While still cutting and placing the background board, the stage teacher realized that Wan Changsheng had a strong ability to do things: "Have you learned it?"

Wan Changsheng humbled: "I have never painted such a stage, but I have painted a lot of stages in the temple."

After seeing the long lines outlined by Wan Changsheng, the stage teacher became more confident: "The foundation is very thick... but here you should be extensive. Come and take a look at this previous background board, theater stage design and other painting forms, including the stage design of film and television dramas. The audience here may be dozens or hundreds of meters away, and they cannot see the details, so we must first emphasize the major relationship."

Wan Changsheng suddenly realized: "No wonder the makeup on the actors' faces is also a bit exaggerated?"

The teacher nodded with relief: "It's this reason. The patterns on the background are first and foremost related, and the details cannot be overshadowed by the main points, so..."

Wan Changsheng quickly observed other people's drawings seriously.

So, to look up at the world, Wan Changsheng used to be the most proud of large-scale drawing of bare hands. It seems to be a basic skill here, with different ways, but also has the ability to print at high speed: "Young people like you are rare. In the past, there were several experts in various counties and cities who could draw large advertising posters, especially cinema posters. Sometimes some self-taught guys are very good. But since the popularity of computer spray painting, now even when making stage sets, many young people are accustomed to printing with computer PS. The new technology is correct, but the skills in their hands have completely shrunk..."

Because Wan Changsheng does have his own strengths in large-scale shapes, he can easily pick up the swishing swishing swishing swishing swishing swishing swishing swishing swishing swishing swishing swishing swishing swishing swishing swishing swishing swishing swishing swishing swishing swishing swishing swishing swishing swishing swishing swishing swishing swishing swishing swishing swishing swishing swish

The stage teacher only needed to follow and direct two or three people to quickly color and fill it, and the efficiency was extremely high.

So several other staff members who made stage props and sets praised it: "Teacher Lei, this is like the apprentice you brought with you. The cooperation is so good, and the effect is also good!"

Teacher Lei smiled: "Xiao Wan is not necessarily willing to follow me to do this. What is wrong with his skills? He has to come to the backstage to do chores?"

Wan Changsheng hurriedly: "Then I'd better call you a teacher. I have been doing chores since I was a child. Today I can learn these with you and benefit a lot!"

Everyone was busy with their work and started to cheer: "Ask a teacher, a teacher, just go to Teacher Lei for further study!"

Wan Changsheng also regarded it as a chat: "I only took the Shumei exam this year. If there is no problem with the college entrance examination next month, it is very likely that I will go to Shumei to study Chinese painting."

Teacher Lei kept his hands, but his expression was a little thoughtful: "Shumei... doesn't have a major in stage art. Are you interested in practicing this craft with me during the holidays? In fact, if you follow the crew, your income is still not low."

I really want Wan Changsheng to enter the industry, but how could Wan Changsheng care about income: "I also want to learn it, but I am not good at it. In addition to painting, I focus more on seal carving. As long as you don't dislike it, I will come to Pingjing in the future and ask you for advice and learning."

Teacher Lei was not surprised. How to say the stage art major, it is indeed a master, but this is always a supporting project in the performing arts industry. Few artists who have truly become famous and have specialized in this. They can be respected as teachers in the industry, but there are very few who want to become stage artists.

So the rest of the time, I really taught Wan Changsheng some details and tips on this stage art while painting.

The director didn't leave, and she took the screenwriter and others to change the lines, but she was old after all, and she couldn't compare her energy with a young man like Wan Changsheng. She came over to see the modification progress of the scene props after two o'clock.

Not only do these things need to be made, but they also have to consider how to put them on the stage. Now they are large-scale mechanized stages and must be replaced and adjusted within a short closing time.

This will take a lot of thought from the stage art group.

Aunt Xi stood there from a distance and watched Wan Changsheng and Teacher Lei busy, without any utilitarianism.

There was a little smile on my tired face. I felt that although I met by chance, what I had to do to Wan Changsheng was very trustworthy.

I just found a chair in the backstage and sat on it, watching the young man draw everywhere in a lively manner, and then I slowly fell asleep.

The director's assistant quickly took the blanket to cover Aunt Xi, and asked the elder brothers in the props team to whisper. Director Xi had been sleeping for a long time.

Teacher Lei looked at the progress and felt relieved, so he invited everyone to go out and smoke a cigarette.

Wan Changsheng didn't smoke, but he was finally able to comfortably go shopping for artworks outside the entire Grand Theater. The director's assistant asked him to help him buy a few cups of coffee on the vending machine outside.

For Wan Changsheng, this is the most wonderful moment.

Such a large National Grand Theater has now become his own private art space.

Just like a wonderful night in a museum.

Holding the work certificate tag given to him by the director's assistant, Wan Changsheng lingers in the huge building that is still brightly lit and maintains his image.

It's not too pleasant to feel that people usually come and go but are now empty.

Except for the patrol security guards checking their work permit once, no one came to care about what Wan Changsheng did.

Because he never went indoors, he just wandered around the hall full of artworks. I guess he could see this rustic bun wandering around with his hands on his back in all the surveillance videos.

If Teacher Lei hadn't called Wan Changsheng to call him, this fool would have been out until dawn!

But this job was really done until dawn. Only after five o'clock, I finally drew out the background boards I needed to draw, the scene structure I could call for, and the rest was to add props during the day to shape the city wall.

Young people are very physically strong. Most of Teacher Lei and the others are so tired that they rest on the folding chair. The satisfied Wan Changsheng could hardly see the fatigue. He took a few photos from a distance with his mobile phone, solemnly said goodbye to Teacher Lei and the others, and did not bother the director who was asleep on the sofa, and ran away quietly.

I didn't ask for someone else's reward or any vehicle pickup. I didn't even have a joke to get breakfast. I took a taxi and went back to the hotel, just in time for breakfast at the hotel here.

It really didn't delay the arrangement of collective activities at all, and the student cadres were curious and inquired.

Wan Changsheng took out the photos of himself wandering around the Grand Theater alone to show off.

On the other side, the actors who arrived one after another from seven or eight o'clock saw a new set of stage props, especially the background board and group portrait of the backcourt.

Such group images are rarely seen in Western paintings, because Western oil paintings require a clear distinction between the primary and secondary, which is very different from the scattered perspective of Chinese paintings and can be evenly touched by rain and dew.

There are so many characters, but there is no perfunctory difference between front and back rows. Young students are mainly dressed up, as well as ordinary citizens, intellectuals, and small vendors of that era...

All walks of life are crowded there, but they have their own different expressions. They are not meticulously realistic, but they have their own vivid and spirituality.

Perhaps in terms of technique, the well-informed actors do not think they are superb, but the importance lies in reality, just like seeing those vivid faces in the square in front of Guanyin Temple.

An ordinary face burst out into a soul that surpasses the ordinary at an extraordinary moment!

The actors who arrived one after another almost stood there and stopped moving, as if they wanted to draw the vitality they needed to express from the faces of these background characters!

Director Xi only came over at this time, rubbed his eyes hard, and looked at each other with the actors who turned around.

Finally, the same word came out from the corner of the mouth: "Change! Change again!"
Chapter completed!
