If you think about the question of what the actors do not really do in the movies, then you can easily answer it. However, someone may say that everything in the cinema is not true, and will be right in its own way. But still, there are such game moments, to the filming of which they resort to using some tricks.
Love affairs
Definitely, in the cinema, almost all emotions, including love, are not really shown. Love arises in the picture thanks to competent editing, cutting of frames, correctly selected music, as well as the ability of the actors to show this feeling. After all, even if you just put a young man and a girl in front of each other and ask them to stand for a while, while shooting, then with the help of an editor you can get two completely different videos. With the imposition of a romantic melody and the correct sequence of shots, we will understand that the actors are playing love. If you change the audio accompaniment to fast, pumping music and, accordingly, change the rhythm of the frame changes, you will get the feeling that the actors hate each other. This effect has been known since the appearance of silent films and is called the "Kuleshov effect". In fact, the young man and the girl were calmly standing opposite each other.
Kissing in movies is also not real. “Without language,” as they say. However, for a natural picture, the director most often asks the actors to show the most real feeling in this matter. Funny scenes with kisses looked in a silent movie, where, in a fit of passion, the hero grabbed his beloved and, sharply turning her away from the camera, fell to her. In fact, this is a well-known theatrical technique of stage kiss, when the object of passion is “hidden” from the viewer, and the kiss is made on the cheek.
And, of course, in feature films, all bed scenes are played "for fun." As a rule, it is these scenes that they try to shoot at the end of the project, so that during the work the actors get used to each other.
It is a known fact that in the movie "Nymphomaniac" Shia LaBeouf, Charlotte Gainsbourg and Willem Dafoe are having sex for real, which was the director's idea. But such cases are rare.
Some movie stars refuse to expose their bodies. Especially for this there are entire databases of "bed doubles". Skillful editors will present the shots in such a way that it will seem to you that the actress has just such a body. During bed scenes, make-up of sweat, nude underwear and even various silicone pads are also actively used to hide imperfections and make the body beautiful for the viewer. Usually shooting bed scenes can last for several days, before that rehearsals are held.
Tricks and death
Naturally, movie actors do not die for real. Make-up artists take an active part in the murder scenes, competently applying blood, as well as developers of special effects. It always looks natural, as some warrior is shattered by bullets, and fountains of blood burst from his body. In fact, a whole system with artificial blood reservoirs is sewn under the fabric of the suit, which burst at a certain moment.
Among the acting fraternity there are also superstitious ones who, for example, will never lie in a coffin and will not act in funeral scenes. For such cases, doubles are also used.
With the development of cinematography, there was a need for filming stunts to be performed by actors. And even now, in the age of computer technology, when special effects are included in every film, the profession of a stuntman is in demand.
It was believed that a stuntman was a purely male profession, but this myth was destroyed by Varvara Nikitina, the first woman-stuntman, in the past - a master of sports.
This craft is taught in special schools. When filming a stunt double, they make up and never take a close-up, so that the viewer gets the feeling that his favorite is performing tricks live.
