Chapter 440
“Isn’t this it? If this movie takes off, you’ll be known as the ‘Finnegan’s Screen Siren! That’s a big deal in the acting world. Once you’ve got that title, smaller productions might not even dare invite you anymore. High quality productions may be knocking on your door”
*Really….7”
“Yep, but remember, this is just an audition, so you’re not guaranteed a spot. Mr. Finnegan is famously picky. Can you tell me a bit about the role you’re auditioning
for?”
Stephanie quickly filled Ashley in on the plot.
Ashley caught on quickly and advised, “Steph, first off, don’t panic. Even if you mess up, stay cool. Mr. Finnegan doesn’t like crybabies. Remember to stay strong. even if he yells at you. He’s a bit gruff, but he’s a good guy deep down!
“And… Mr. Finnegan has a unique taste. Most directors want the prettiest actresses, but he prefers those with ordinary looks but extraordinary eyes. It’s probably because his movies focus more on expressions and eye contact. So, I’m surprised he asked you to audition. but since you’re there, let’s do this!
“Remember, act naturally… Everything you’ve learned is to help you jump right into the character. Once you’ve slipped into character, you can improvise according to your interpretation Don’t let anyone see you acting” Got it?”
Stephanie sighed, “But…I’ve never played this kind of character before I might need some time to get into it.
“Don’t worry about that… Mr. Finnegan knows you’re new, so he won’t be expecting perfection. Just do your best according to what I’ve told you. Just remember, you have to immerse yourself in the character… Don’t think of yourself as Stephanie, but think of yourself as the character in the script.”
“I see Sounds like the more high–profile the movie is, the more I need to pay attention to these things… Is that right?”
“Exactly. What I’ve been teaching you is the highest level of acting….so you’re as good as those who’ve been acting for years. Got it? Be confident.”
“Got it. I guess I’ll go audition now”
“Great! Whatever the outcome, I’m proud of you… Can’t believe you’re auditioning for a Finnegan show so soon! Go get ‘em Steph”
“Okay!”
After hanging up, Stephanie took a deep breath and headed for the set.
Mr. Finnegan glanced at her costume and said with a smile, “Choosing to play the beggar scene? You’re brave.”
Stephanie shot back, “Which scene do you think is the easiest, Mr. Finnegan?”
“The death scene at the end”
Stephanie grimaced, “I’ve never played a fight scene while holding a newborn… My character starts as the little beggar, so if I’m going to perform the whole thing. I need to follow the sequence step by step to understand the character. I’ll start at the very beginning”
Mr. Finnegan looked at her intensely, “You’re smart. You even know to study the character. I doubt they teach that in–depth at school. Did someone specifically
teach you this?”
Stephanie gave a small smile, “Yes, but I can’t tell you who.”
“Hahaha this is getting really interesting Maximus, go rehearse the scene where the male lead’s father first meets the beggar!”
Maximus grumbled Why did it always have to be him”
Was it just because he had nothing else to do but come to the set today?
