Hello friends. Jingyuan here is falling very sick now. She is coughing very badly, she can't hear and she can't breathe. I had a hard time trying to catch my breath today, I really don't feel good. Always when there's something major coming, I will definitely fall sick. As in, I fall sick every month la -.-, but like very sick. But I guess I'll go see a doctor tmr.
Today we talk about blocking a script! I've always wonder what is blocking, i thought it is like, breaking down the script into different part or some sort like that. But now i know. Lol. It is the positioning of the actors. The exact movement and position that they should go to. Now that I think of it, it is quite important to let the actors know exactly what you want, but allowing them to still move at their comfort, i think in this way, it will bring out the more natural side of them :) BUT, if we were to direct them poorly, the whole movement will seems awkward and unnatural. I think it has its pros and cons, pros is that the crew, esp the DOP will know when the camera should move and stuff, but cons is that, it might make things awkward for the actors. But however it is, i still think blocking is quite useful in its own way.
We learnt directing of actors yesterday, so it will help us alot in blocking. :)
Ok, i lost my train of thoughts...
