Jiao Xiongping Dialogue with Duan Yihong: I am full of doubts and doubts about my expression

On November 6, the 2019 Jinan Wu Tianming Youth Film Summit "'Dandelion Charity Action'-Duan Yihong Performance Creation Lecture" was held in Jinan, Shandong. Film scholar Jiao Xiongping and actor Duan Yihong had a conversation about Duan Yihong's performance.

"Scorching Sun" and "Blizzard is Coming" are the two films that Duan Yihong has won the most performance awards in the film field. They won the Shanghai Film Festival Golden Goblet Award for Best Actor and Tokyo Film Festival. Awards. But before that, whether it was "Soldier Assault", "My Leader My Group" in the field of TV dramas, or the movies "West Wind" and "White Deer Plain", he created many contagious and recognized audiences. Character.

Jiao Xiongping believes that Duan Yihong’s performance has left her with a very indelible impression, "In his heart, acting is the ultimate goal and purpose he believes very much, and part of his own belief in life."

in "Soldier Assault" Jiao Xiongping thinks that Duan Yihong’s lines are full, clear and very moving. Such lines come from Duan Yihong’s self-doubt, “The lines written by Lan Xiaolong often make me unable to understand. When I get a book that I don’t understand, the first thing I doubt is myself. Why can’t I understand it? Because of mine. The dimension is not big enough, because the understanding and exploration of war and life are too limited, so as an actor, first have a particularly good creative mentality to doubt himself, and then start to solve technical problems, because if the screenwriter wants to express The spiritual world and spiritual temperament of people cannot be solved by technology. What is externalized is the spiritual world and thoughts, so hard work and technical work are all the work that must be done behind the scenes."

And he believes that it is built on the screen The image of a soldier needs to establish a basic professional commonality. “It’s easy for our academic actors to be individual actors. It’s a limitation to bring individuality into countless works. It’s more important to act the commonality or to act the personality. I think it’s more important to understand the commonality first. The texture and quality provided by the actor This (commonality) is closely related. First understand the commonality, and extract more precise actions, words and deeds, and emotions from it."

The earlier drama "The Rhino in Love" was the first time Duan Yihong experienced a performance method outside the experiential school on stage. Jiao Xiongping revealed that Hao Lei, as a partner, believes that Duan Yihong is "like a little leopard combining gentleness and wildness." Duan Yihong believes that it was an important experience to explore the possibility of his own performance. "I am rooted in the experience school. Director Meng Jinghui is a very different avant-garde and adversity theater director. I am eager to cooperate with him, and I am afraid. After a while , I feel that I need such a director to give me a chance. I did encounter great contradictions and conflicts, the entanglement and struggle between the performance shooting and the realism experiential school. He crushed me and denied me, at that stage The state is isolated and helpless. At this time, I met a "superior" who said four words, specious, which made me feel a bit of a sense of epiphany. In the past, I was too cling to the possibility of expression, and believed that there was only one expression. A window is a limitation. I want to thank director Meng Jinghui and "Rhino in Love", which opened up more possibilities in my performance."

"Scorching Sun" and "Memory Master" helped him learn how to interact with Other actors have a benign cooperation. "In "West Wind Fierce", an actor said that he especially wanted to play with me. I don’t know how to interpret it. Playing with each other will bring us a healthy competition and a negative and substandard expression. , This is terrible. It is not a healthy creative mentality to have more and less shots, more lines and less lines, contempt or ignorance of you for the director (the actors quarrel). Deng Chao cooperated with the director Cao Baoping in "The Hot Sun" After three dramas, the tacit understanding between them makes me envious, but there is no jealousy, there can be no jealousy, this will seriously affect the mentality of the creators. Have you ever had such fluctuations? Have you ever. I must do psychological counseling to eliminate it. Because it is too intrusive, it will lose my professional judgment. When we collaborated with Huang Bo on "The Master of Memory", the first time we met, we said that this role is mutually fulfilling, and I hope that we can each other I am very outspoken to complement each other's character and relationship."

Duan Yihong believes that as an actor, you still need to overcome the impurities in your emotions. For example, in "Blizzard is Coming", 97% of the scenes are completed in the rain, which is very cold. Duan Yihong needs to overcome the cold and his own rebellious psychology, and shoot again and again without mixing negative emotions. "This emotion will affect the essence.Quasi-expression, although outsiders can't see clearly, professionals can definitely see the distracting thoughts. This is (a problem) often faced in creation. Whenever I can't hold it anymore, I have to remind myself that I want to leave the audience with a high-level and no regrets (performance), and it will not affect an accurate expression opportunity. The actor's (performance) is very important, so it is more necessary to (to carry out) a rational analysis, and the emotional expression after analysis is mature. Without a rational and rational analysis, it has no roots and foundations. During the performance of

, ​​Duan Yihong believes that the possibilities of characters are worthy of constant pursuit and exploration by actors. "The characters that are always created in the end must be accepted and recognized by most people, but where is the standard of recognition? ? I don’t know. I don’t know it every time I encounter it. It may be the truth, but I don’t know (where) the truth. It is precisely because of this ignorance that attracts me to strive, create and reinvent again and again. For the first time (deduced) that vivid feeling, it needs a strong psychological effect, it needs a love of film, a love of expression, without this, it cannot be sustained. "

Duan Yihong is now filming a web drama "Double Detective". He is not only the starring role, but also the supervisor for the first time. He was very nervous at first, but he convinced himself, "We as actors not only need high quality To complete the expression of the actor, but also to take into account the expression of the camera, light effects, and scenes. So these years, I have more or less felt that a mature actor may care about more things, and gradually I have some constructive opinions. I am willing Work with young directors. "

Jiao Xiongping also saw that Duan Yihong, who has done enough homework, will stick to her own things at the performance site. She is very curious whether Duan Yihong will insist on perfect interpretation of the role, even if he turns his face with the director. Duan Yihong explained, "When I am worried When this director will give me a second chance, I may not be able to express the possibility of an actor. In the discussion, I will try to say some possibilities that I can think of. I hope that our expressions have many possibilities. As a director, when seeing actors provide expressions with different materials, he can make an expression closer to his work. This judgment is very important. If he only thinks that this is the only one, and does not look at the second and third methods, I am very anxious, because I don’t believe me, my expressions are full of doubts and doubts. The so-called experience is a double-edged one. Sword, the experience is terrible, I'm afraid he trusts my experience and judgment too much. This is a screening process during the discussion. If there is no such preparation mentality and state, I think this is terrible. ”
