Chapter 298: Is it possible that role-playing requires two people to engage together?_3
After a short break, let's shoot according to the usual requirements!
....
"Mr. Gan, what's wrong? I remember you had a decent presence on camera."
In the lounge.
Seeing Gan Yanyu walk back somewhat dejectedly, Lin Tian asked with concern.
Gan Yanyu is definitely not just a pretty face.
She has always had absolute confidence in her own "cuteness," and even though she doesn't have many skills, she's managed to flaunt her "fashion sense."
People like her have strong self-examination abilities.
In some of the small interactions before, Lin Tian could also feel that Gan Yanyu's camera charisma was top-notch.
Why is it that she struggles once she actually starts trying modeling for the first time?
"I don't know either, actually I've been trying hard."
Gan Yanyu's tone grew even more sorrowful.
Clearly, Lin Tian had done so well earlier, yet she held him back.
"What about your role-playing, Mr. Gan? Bring it out!"
As if he suddenly thought of something, Lin Tian said.
During the previous shoot, Lin Tian had grasped it.
Acting skills are definitely useful.
This filming may look simple, but it's actually a technical job.
Earlier, Gan Yanyu had become quite stiff in her movements, and the real reason was that she hadn't fully immersed herself in the role.
If she had really immersed herself, there would be no need to deliberately pose, both the eyes and actions would naturally be right on point in an instant.
Mr. Gan loves role-playing so much; undoubtedly, her sense of immersion should be running on full.
Moreover, on New Year's Eve, she had totally tricked him effortlessly.
"Let me try!"
As if suddenly awakened, Gan Yanyu earnestly said.
She stood up and stood straight in front of Lin Tian.
The whole lounge had only the two of them.
To immerse into a character, first, one should understand what they're supposed to portray.
Actually, Lin Tian quite liked Gan Yanyu's outfit today; after all, he had never seen this style before.
The pure black design is elegant and carries with it a trace of a cool, aloof atmosphere, like a high and mighty empress.
Especially those beautiful legs wrapped in black silk, slipped into high heels.
Undeniably tempting, yet restraining improper thoughts.
A far cry from Gan Yanyu's usual style.
Lin Tian was unsure of how this outfit related to the "high-end feel" De Pu wanted.
If the aim was to give a feel of unattainability, then that wouldn't be a problem.
"....."
Gan Yanyu followed Lin Tian's instructions, stood in high heels in front of him.
The girl swallowed hard, closed her eyes, and started to get into the zone.
Lofty, majestic, frightening....
Gan Yanyu opened her eyes.
Her gaze fierce, gritted her teeth with effort!
"The expression lacks a bit of power."
Lin Tian thoughtfully said, "Lift both of your hands up."
"Lift them up?"
Gan Yanyu found it strange, but did as told,
"To where, the stomach? Shoulders?"
"Alongside your ears."
"And then?"
"Make claw-like shapes with your hands."
"Ah.... done."
"Now, do it again."
Gan Yanyu raised her claws, her gaze fierce, showing her teeth at Lin Tian.
"So cute."
Lin Tian said with a smile.
".....Lin Tian!"
Gan Yanyu's face turned red instantly, quickly covering her face, uttering in a tone of mock anger.
"It's no good, Mr. Gan, I think it's because you're nothing like this character, making it tough to capture the intended vibe."
Lin Tian said.
Although usually, Gan Yanyu gives others the impression of being similarly 'aloof' and 'unapproachable' due to her chill demeanor.
However, her true nature is kind, and the impression she gives is mainly due to her looks and inherent aura, different from the former.
Lin Tian realized.
Gan Yanyu's role-playing prowess stems from her innate joy in embodying those roles.
Whether as a college girl, or a Tokyo Girls High School student, or even a younger sister type lover.
Deep down, Gan Yanyu likes such identities, resulting in such an immersive feeling.
This includes immersion during performances too.
For most melancholic pieces, Gan Yanyu highly desires to understand and resonate with the original author.
But if a piece's original author was a murderer who created with malice, then Gan Yanyu's "immersive performance" would certainly fail.
Understanding this makes things a bit difficult.
Lin Tian found it a bit troubling.
Because he couldn't have Gan Yanyu play a role she inherently dislikes.
"Mr. Gan, could you push a bit more?"
Lin Tian thought while rubbing his chin, meanwhile, Gan Yanyu remained silent.
The girl, uncharacteristically stared at the floor, caught in some deep thought.
Her eyebrows slightly furrowed.
Seemingly considering some profound question.
"Mr. Gan?"
Lin Tian called tentatively,
"..."
"Little Gan!"
After Lin Tian repeated, Gan Yanyu finally jerked in surprise. ThiscontentishostedatM|V|LE^MPYR.
She looked into Lin Tian's eyes for a while.
"Lin Tian, do you think my character should feel like a queen... right?"
"Yeah...."
Lin Tian didn't understand why Gan Yanyu repeated this question.
She naturally dislikes this kind of role, further exploring would hardly be effective, right?
"Then Lin Tian, could you promise me one thing?"
A flash of light appeared in Gan Yanyu's eyes.
"What is it?"
"Later, when I shoot, you have to sit where I can see you."
Gan Yanyu said earnestly, "When I look at you, you also have to look at me."
"Alright."
Though unclear of the reasoning, Lin Tian agreed.
Soon enough, the break was over.
The second round of shooting started.
Wang Jun had done several rounds of self-talk to ensure his own temper wouldn't flare.
Finally, with a calm mindset, he returned to the photography set.
Just perceive it as an ordinary project—Wang Jun thought.
However, the moment he picked up the camera....
In the lens, there was a gaze so chilling, directly staring at him.
That gaze was filled with... contempt.
Wang Jun got startled, quickly lowered the camera.
In front of him, Gan Yanyu, somehow, had already started showing expressions like that!
Wang Jun got thrilled again!
He picked up the camera, starting a series of snapshots at Gan Yanyu.
"Click" "Click—"
Shot after shot.
Even others had also noticed the change.
"What happened... just took a break, and it feels totally different!"
"So cool! Damn, Miss Cat is so charismatic!!"
"Aaaaah, this kind of 'looking down on garbage' gaze.... Is she overdoing it a bit?!"
Amid everyone's exclamations.
Lin Tian himself was perplexed.
To be honest.
Gan Yanyu actually got into the zone.
In Wang Jun's lens, she continuously showcased various poses with ease.
Even her gaze and emotions were perfectly in place.
What happened???
Lin Tian was dumbfounded.
He had been with Gan Yanyu earlier, didn't seem like she had any breakthrough or anything!
Wasn't it that she couldn't immerse into roles she doesn't like?
However,
Lin Tian soon noticed.
During the shoot, Gan Yanyu would indeed glance at Lin Tian from time to time.
Just like refreshing some passive status or something.
And that gaze... was a bit odd....
It was a look never seen before on Gan Yanyu's face, completely unlike her.
After looking, Lin Tian could clearly see a momentary embarrassed and shy expression flash across Gan Yanyu's face, as if she had done something wrong to Lin Tian.
Not sure if he was imagining it.
Lin Tian, he had a feeling.... that gaze... seemed like.....
Like she was looking at her... pet.
