This is the norm of current pop culture: all kinds of Internet celebrities are coming one after another, squeezing into the production chain of film and television dramas, competing to show their skills on the screen. And "Between the Ink and Clouds", where so many "green leaf actors" gathered, isn't it a living slice of observing the symptoms of the current cultural industry?
Internet celebrity actors are showing their edge
Originally, they just earned some exposure through short videos, and Internet celebrities who want to go to the next level to become professional actors are naturally eager to try.
Ironically, the definition of "actor" has indeed expanded to an unprecedented level: as long as you are acting and coquettish in front of the camera, you are considered an actor. However, we can't deny that in the eyes of connoisseurs, some Internet celebrity actors do show something.
For example, Yang Fuyu, a new Internet celebrity actor, became an instant hit in the play. With her playful looks and moldable shape, she quickly made a lasting impression in the hearts of the audience.
A netizen's comment:
I originally thought she was another little net-red who simply relied on her appearance, but I didn't expect that her acting skills in the play were unexpectedly not bad, and she felt a little amazing.
This can't help but make people have some expectations for the future of Internet celebrity actors. As long as they have undergone serious training, under the tempering of experience, a group of solid acting Internet celebrity actors may be born in the future. After all, the popularity of online dramas and short video dramas in recent years has invisibly provided more exercise places for this group.
From "appearance is justice" to "acting is king"
However, the status quo is not all peaceful. From the new Internet celebrity Yang Fuyu to the veteran traffic star Yang Zi, some critics humorously called this a phenomenon of "purple in purple". This can't help but make people sigh: many viewers seem to be still in a superficial perspective, judging their acting skills only based on their appearance.
And in fact, the true ability of an actor should not be limited by appearance. Wasn't Jackie Chan's chance to be golden? ? Do you look flat? But didn't he create an immortal legend later. Therefore, we should appreciate an actor with a more open and broad mind, rather than being bound by one-sided views.
Netizens summed it up well:
Wait for a hundred years to know the chapter, and you can ask Qingshan County ruthlessly. The real strength of an actor is, of course, still dependent on her performance on the stage, her line skills, emotional control, and tacit understanding with other actors.
At the end of the day, we're just spectators, and sometimes we're biased because of our passion, but it's the talent in the industry who has the most say. Let's take a look at what Yu Zheng, an expert, has to say:
Yu Zheng said in an interview:
In addition to paying attention to the popularity and box office appeal of the actors, we now pay more attention to the real acting skills. Whether it is an actor recruited from a celebrity or an Internet celebrity, they must undergo a strict assessment before joining the group, and even conduct long-term professional training to ensure that their basic skills are solid before they can go into battle.
It can be seen from these words that the cast in film and television dramas is not simply formed by piling up star traffic, and the production team will be very careful to select the right actors and strictly control them. Therefore, whether it is a newcomer or an old actor, only with excellent acting skills can he truly be called a first-class actor.
It is not easy to engage in acting, and we tolerate and understand each other
When it comes to "acting", we have to admit that the threshold of this industry is high and the investment is far beyond the imagination of outsiders. Whether it is learning from art, abiding by professional ethics, or persisting in struggle under the spotlight, there are hardships and sweat behind it that are difficult for ordinary people to understand.
Therefore, for the shortcomings of some new actors, we may be able to be more empathetic and tolerant. After all, acting career is a long road of cultivation, and you need to polish and improve yourself in continuous experience.
A veteran film critic put it this way:
Actors are also a youth eater, and when it is really better than the blue, it takes a slow development process. We should give more encouragement and opportunities to newcomers, and walk with them with a positive attitude, instead of being harsh and critical of them.
In general, whether they are rookies or veterans, every posture and every emotion they show in front of the screen is full of enthusiasm for artistic pursuit. This obsession is enough to make us sincerely admire, and it should also make us tolerate and support each other.
Entertaining and educational, the film and television function has not been lost
If it is said that the literary theories and social issues written by predecessors such as Yi Xiaolin and Zhang Lusha often make readers feel cold and difficult, then contemporary film and television works have undoubtedly created a more friendly and lower-entrance "knowledge chain store" for us.
In the drama "Ink Rain and Clouds", as many netizens said, in addition to the brilliant performance of the newcomer actors, the drama skills of the plot itself are also impressive.
It involves a series of thoughtful themes such as family conflicts, class antagonisms, and the fate of women, but through a vivid and interesting storyline, these issues are skillfully integrated, so that the audience can obtain a certain degree of ideological nourishment while enjoying the viewing.
What does the future hold for influencer actors?
In addition to the controversy over acting, there are also different voices in society about the future development prospects of Internet celebrity actors.
On the one hand, there is a view that Internet celebrity actors are a transitional existence, and it is difficult to really gain a foothold in the entertainment industry. They pointed out that influencers mainly rely on traffic and marketing appeal, and once the freshness wanes, it is difficult to impress the audience.
A film and television investor put it this way:
After all, Internet celebrities exist to attract attention, and most of them have not been systematically professionally cultivated. If the acting skills do not reach a certain level, it is easy to be regarded as a "vase" by the audience and be eliminated. Therefore, for Internet celebrities who want to engage in the profession of actors for a long time, they still have to work hard to improve their professional quality.
However, there are also optimists who believe that at the moment when content is king, Internet celebrities naturally have the advantage of marketing appeal, as long as they exercise diligently and are down-to-earth, they have every chance to become first-line actors.
The well-known director Zhang Yimou sees it like this:
Newcomers are the vitality of this industry, as long as you have sincere love, perseverance in learning and research, there will be a day when you will get ahead. Although this process is long and arduous, as long as you adhere to your ideals, you will definitely overcome many obstacles and finally write your own wonderful chapter on the big stage of life.
Perhaps for the actors who were born as Internet celebrities, although the road ahead is full of challenges, as long as they can endure loneliness and forge ahead, they have the possibility to make a difference. Let's wait and see and look forward to their wonderful performances on the road to acting!
The multiple connections between film and television dramas and social reality
If it is only from the perspective of industry insiders that the phenomenon of Internet celebrity actors has been judged and prospected, then we cannot ignore the close connection between this event and social reality.
The current film and television drama ecology is a big business with "high input and high output". In order to obtain considerable returns, production companies naturally have to hire "traffic managers" and run grand productions to attract attention through high salaries. This will inevitably push up the cost of the entire industry, and at the same time, box office and advertising revenue have become important criteria for measuring the success of a film and television production.
In this big wave, the audience's viewing habits have also changed. They are no longer satisfied with just passively accepting the output of film and television content, but hope to actively participate in production and word-of-mouth marketing, and form a "many-to-many" interactive relationship with the film and television industry. To a certain extent, the emergence of Internet celebrity actors is exactly in line with this demand.
