Chapter 51: Different, Opportunities
It really is a "shining" debut.
Jing Xiaoqiang actually just bought a pair of black tight-fitting sports pants, the kind that were very baggy.
Then cut the gold foil paper bought from the stationery store into strips and used transparent tape to stick the strips vertically all over the pants.
It feels a bit like Arabian bloomers.
The sports bra was also painted gold, with a circle of gold tassels glued to the hem...
In the accessories store of the clothing market, you can buy a big bag for two dollars.
I also made a face-covering mask using these cheap golden plastic beads.
It’s just like the door curtains made by many homes in those days.
Finally, add the headband, wristband and anklet made of gold foil, and your whole body will be sparkling.
Who among you beautiful girls doesn’t want to be a shining fairy?
At that time, they couldn't wait to surround Du Ruolan and loved her so much.
Jing Xiaoqiang felt a little irritated when he saw the girl's exposed white arms, so he tore off a roll of white gauze and made a half-length gown with a lot of gold pieces on it.
It feels more fairy-like.
So if he appeared in this posture, wouldn’t the whole audience be shocked? !
This is the most basic skill of costume and props modeling, including clothing modeling, makeup modeling, and prop modeling.
In addition, there were a few male students who were freshmen of the stage design department. They hid behind the stands with two dressing mirrors each, reflecting as much light as possible.
That is to use the lighting effects as well.
All done.
Every stage makeup major has to start with hair crocheting and the like, and when they start doing facial makeup, that's a more advanced skill.
The purpose of costumes and makeup is to help the character gain positioning.
I originally thought that this dance was a bit enchanting and full of sexy elements, but now it has a Western style with a flying shape.
You said her waist was exposed, and there were tassels hanging on it.
But the tassel curtain that is vaguely visible on the face is more attractive than not covering it.
The most outrageous thing is that everyone originally had a flying bun, which is just two strands of hair tied into a circle, but the style had to be twisted like flying clouds.
As a result, when Jing Xiaoqiang was helping everyone with their performance makeup, he made the excuse that he didn't bring hairspray or mousse, so every girl went on stage with two wigs and twin ponytails!
A typical example of a girl pretending to be a flying fairy but actually being seductive and cute.
This is also the tradition of Broadway. Do the costumes and props need to follow the original appearance?
It's good enough, the important thing is that the audience likes it.
A bunch of white people sang Asian roles in Madame Butterfly and Miss Saigon.
When asked, they said that our student performances don’t have such strict styling requirements, it’s just about the same.
Do you know the story about beauties wearing masks?
Do you know that half-covered is the most attractive?
Do you know the temptation of the standard street dance outfit with loose bottom and tight top, showing a little waist?
Jing Xiaoqiang is really good at doing things in a place like this.
Before, Huang Xuerong and her friends could just tuck their white shirts around their waists and the dance hall would be filled with noise.
Now looking at the golden bra under the white gauze gown, oh my goodness, the whole audience was shocked when the freshman acting girls came on stage.
Then the series of Egyptian hands and flower hands are even more dazzling.
This is a typical tactic that feels very professional but still impressive.
Of course it is difficult to master it, but it can fool people at least.
After the dance officially started, all the teachers and students in the audience couldn't help but tremble a little.
Due to the ideology of the time, no one blew the whistle for hooliganism, but applause was heard one after another, as well as incomprehensible screams.
The girls were in good condition too, with cold faces and a cool working demeanor, and when you glanced at them, you could feel a tingling sensation.
Of course, Du Ruolan stood in the C position. She also had the most standard movements, the best sense of rhythm and strength. After more than two minutes of hot dance, she had become the focus of the whole audience.
It certainly won’t be on the chest this time, as the sports bra is a great way to draw all eyes to your dancing moves.
Only Jing Xiaoqiang stood at the edge of the stage with her arms folded. The girl's lower abdominal muscles were amazing. Look at her abs and tendons. Her body fat percentage must have dropped below 15.
His focus was not on breasts or ass at all.
very satisfied.
This song and dance that transcends time is like the fire in the winter three years ago or the breakdance one or two years ago. It simply and directly won all the attention.
Almost every dormitory chat that night mentioned the dance of the freshman performance department.
Too hot, too shiny.
But there is not much to find fault with it. Everything that should be covered is covered, such as breast-bouncing and so on, which are present in various dances. Almost all the seductive movements such as touching legs and breasts have been erased.
It is to impact the vision with the enthusiasm full of youthful vitality.
Almost all the boys in the school talked about the girl from the northwest who was the lead dancer. She was so beautiful.
The beauty of this year's performance class, who usually looks great in military uniform, shines brightly on the stage!
Then someone will definitely mention that the girl seems to already have a boyfriend.
It’s that…strong guy from freshman year.
Generally, the boys in the dormitories would quiet down, take a shower and go to sleep, with a sour feeling overflowing in their hearts.
Anyway, just because of Jing Xiaoqiang's appearance and physique, no one wants to humiliate or punish him.
We are all civilized people and will not bother with those barbaric guys.
Moreover, it is easy to imagine the force of the impact, which makes me feel sad.
But the girls' side was very lively. Wow, such a beautiful dance, such a pretty school girl, and such a... strong boyfriend. They must feel very safe.
After all, it's not a dance academy, so people are more concerned about this aspect.
Only the leaders of the various departments who were watching had very different focus.
They were nodding to each other: "These students put in a lot of effort."
"They grasped the point of moderation. This kind of initiative is rare among freshmen."
"I have some basic knowledge of costumes and makeup, so it should be the senior students who helped me."
"The choreography and music are quite good. I don't think I've heard this song before. It's very humorous, interesting and catchy. Has anyone heard it before?"
The leaders, most of whom were over 40 years old, shook their heads.
As a result, one of the young teachers was very excited: "This is "Does Your Mother Know", one of the popular songs in this summer. I even bought a tape specially for it, but today's one is definitely different. It has been re-arranged..."
After hearing this, the department leaders and teachers were quite surprised.
There was no such thing as music editing software in those days, and electronic effects were rare and primitive, only able to imitate a single instrument or add different effects to it.
PCs haven't even fully developed yet.
A piece of music is what it is, with its instrumentation and soundtrack.
And there will be no online interception or cloud disk downloading.
Even for domestic professionals, if they want to obtain more music melodies, pirated CDs are definitely the main source.
The experts present here should be able to hear that there are a lot of standard orchestral instruments in this piece of music. This is a standard orchestra-level recording soundtrack!
The teacher of the broadcasting and directing major identified it: "So, this soundtrack should not be taken from any tape, because when I listened to it, I felt that the sound wave rate was wrong. It was not collected in a standard recording studio. It seems that the band just recorded it casually on the spot. This program must be very expensive."
Jing Xiaoqiang is simply used to dealing with bands and orchestras. Everyone can record it casually and adjust the arrangement and style according to needs.
However, I didn’t expect that this kind of orchestra resources are extremely scarce in China.
Even in the poorest black neighborhoods in New York City, you can easily find a group of hip-hop singers playing music with the latest speakers and musical instruments. The accumulation of material conditions by the world's richest country over decades is no joke.
Currently, there are only a handful of orchestras and art troupes in Shanghai that can do this.
This is also Shanghai, which has the most advanced economic conditions in the country.
It would be great if some provinces could put together a complete team.
The department leaders looked at each other in bewilderment. The first thing they thought of was who had overseas connections and had made the tapes abroad and sent them over. This was the most common way of thinking in Shanghai.
But after being sent across the ocean, it was not very fine, and someone immediately rejected this idea.
It's more like the second generation who has wild ways and strong connections.
What's more, at this moment, the leaders of the Stage Design Department and the Performance Department looked at each other at the same time.
I vaguely remembered someone!
So I immediately went to ask the counselor in the acting department.
Du Ruolan and the others, who had just come off the stage and were extremely excited, had no intention of stealing the credit. They quickly explained that it was Jing Xiaoqiang from the stage design department who assisted with the music, choreography, costumes, makeup, and lighting...
Only one of them jumped, and the rest were all completed by Jing Xiaoqiang.
It turns out that he is really the freshman who wants to make some achievements in musical drama.
The two department leaders also explained to the college leaders: "He is a very outstanding and motivated student among this year's freshmen."
The drama academy is very small, with only a thousand people in total. The academy leaders are like patriarchs with a literary temperament: "That's good, that's good. Please pay more attention to and take care of such good seedlings... Uh, yes, tomorrow night the TV station invited us to select a program to participate in the National Day Gala for Overseas Business People. In addition to the previous poetry recitation, we will add this program to let everyone see the new atmosphere of our new generation of college students. It has both traditional charm and new fashion. I think it's great!"
Everyone?
These are two different things.
