127. stars in the night sky (1)

We often refer to celebrities on TV as stars.

There are many hypotheses about calling celebrities stars, but they also shine like stars in the night sky.

However, as we become adults and realize that there is no Santa Claus, we realize that the stars in the night sky we see are not their own light, but people still yearn for the stars in the night sky.

Whether it’s the stars in the night sky or the stars showing off their splendid appearances on TV.

In particular, the admiration for Hollywood stars who achieved incomparably greater success was indescribable.

Numerous people who longed for their lives challenged the position, were frustrated, failed, and found their place.

In order to reach the goal they want to be a star.

However, as always, there were more stars that crumble before reaching the earth than stars in the night sky.

The behind-the-scenes audition hall was no exception.

(It is eliminated.)

(Thank you! See you next time!)

(Next participant.)

Less than 10 seconds after one star entered the audition hall, she was eliminated again.

The judges who shouted elimination simply turned their eyes to the paper with no expression and checked for the next contestant.

Even in this situation, the contestants don’t lose their smile and bow their heads in gratitude and leave the audition hall. to find the next opportunity.

‘It’s brutal. exactly.’

It was so chilling. No matter how much it is the first audition, the time allotted to each actor is less than one minute.

Even for the first audition, what kind of preparation they come in, what clothes and hairstyles they wear, how they enter the audition hall, and what kind of impression they leave are coming as bigger variables than acting skills.

It’s literally a first impression.

And while looking at the resume of the next contestant, Jaeik’s eyes lit up.

Because he was one of the actors he had his eye on during the pre-audition.

‘Jimmy Donaldson.’

was a young actor. 29 years old. My filmography is all about small theatrical stage experience and supporting roles in small films and short films.

If you look at the experience, it was no different from the many people who had suffered the ordeal of elimination before.

But when I looked at his demo reel and looked up the works he appeared in. There was something that caught my attention.

I’m still not sure if this is just my intuition, or if it’s not that, but in the process of absorbing countless talents, my eyes to see things have risen dramatically.

I was sure. There was definitely something indescribable about Jimmy Donaldson’s performance. Even if it’s something I can’t put into words right now.

(Hi, I’m Jimmy Donaldson!)

(Start when ready.)

Finger gloves in an old coat. Beanie and bobbed hair. Just looking at it, it seemed that the answer was coming out who had studied it.

Oliver Hicks. A villain who feels like an information dealer from the underworld and a mid-boss.

Jimmy Donaldson looked straight ahead and quickly at his body, then muttered in vain.

(Oh, jeez. f*cked.)

A speech right before the death of the main character. It was a very short line.

There was an awkward silence in the audition hall for a while.

James Holt, who couldn’t see the performance properly, raised his hand and tried to get Jimmy Donaldson out.

‘ah. Such a mistake.’

(Well, yes. Good job.)

With those words, Jimmy Donaldson’s heart sank with a thump. Perfect character analysis. I chose a short and impactful scene. Just spitting out that word and dropping out.

It was really bad. I couldn’t even show you anything. To say thank you again and leave.

I knew at least that if I had to hold on to this place, rumors wouldn’t come out badly and I wouldn’t get good results.

That’s why the moment I was about to bow my head to say hello with a giddy expression.

(Wait.)

Jaeik, who had just watched the audition without saying a word while watching more than a hundred actors, raised his hand, and James Holt reached out and stopped the staff from trying to let Jimmy Donaldson out.

Jaeik is the original author. Besides, he was co-director, producer, and screenwriter with Spielberg. Literally, a word of Jaeik means that it is not an ordinary influence.

(Can I see the prepared monologue?)

Read at noblemtl. com

Low but slow tone. I couldn’t read any emotion or mood in those words.

(Yes Yes!)

Jimmy Donaldson instinctively recognized that this was an opportunity. It was all the more so because he seemed to know who the burly young man at the far end, wearing a hat, was.

The other one didn’t say anything when he raised his hand, so he had a rather curious look on his face. A dark-haired young Asian. who would it be Original author Song Jae-ik.

I don’t know why the hell he was in the first audition, but he gave himself a chance!

(You’re being kicked out like me. It’s a shame we’re enemies. But otherwise, I think we would have gotten along.)

A low but gentle voice. It was a good murmur that matched the tone of Oliver Hicks, whom he had studied.

(see you next time.)

Jackie smiled and shook his head. not bad. I’m still not sure what it is, but it was full of positive feelings.

(Persimmon, thank you!)

Jimmy Donaldson bowed his head toward Song Jae-ik, trying to hide his overflowing emotions.

He gave me a chance and I took a chance. It was an opportunity that would never come again. I almost missed it in front of my hands.

(see you next time.)

‘What did you see? What the hell did you see?’

It was already the third. Obviously, he was trying to call for a pass. No matter what Song Jae-ik saw, he already listed three actors on the callback list.

Only in 1 car? Not the second or third. It’s really an audition where the winner is decided within 10 seconds.

The sun was already passing with red light, and the first audition was almost coming to an end.

(Let’s take a break!)

(Turn it off. Would you like a cup of coffee? Would you like a cup of coffee too?)

(Oh, I think I need to do some work. Takeout please if you don’t mind.)

(Yeah~ I know!)

There are still auditions left, but I had a break for a while to rest, and people had tea time in groups of three to five and this audition. Among them, I took out a story about Jae-Ik.

(That song writer. What the hell is the criteria for passing? To be honest, all three of them were eliminated.)

(That’s why. To be honest, it’s just a common actor. There are three of them. I’m a little curious.)

(Isn’t it random?)

(That’s right. Even if I just ask, he just laughs, saying it’s just a feeling.)

(Or, didn’t someone pass because they were really embarrassed to do anything?)

(Puha. There’s a lot of potential. It’s embarrassing if you don’t do anything when you attend for no reason.)

Laughter broke out among the people at someone’s serious joke.

It’s also worth noting that some people were normal and some people trembled at the audition and chewed their lines. But everything passed.

So people who have already auditioned by thousands or tens of thousands of people could not understand Jaeik’s choice even more.

But instead of laughing at that opinion, only James Holt seriously questioned Jaeik’s choice.

‘Is it real? no. I can’t feel it. He must have seen something.’

Before the first audition was held, both Amplix and director Spielberg even asked us to respect Jaeik’s opinion as much as possible. Doesn’t that mean that the master and the giant production company acknowledge Song Jae-ik’s eyes?

What did Song Jae-ik see in those actors?

At least now I couldn’t figure it out at all. I wondered if it would be a little better if I could understand it myself.

His dream was also to be an agency and at the same time to be a casting director. Discovering pearls buried in mud.

James Holt etched the names of the people Jaeik passed into his head.

Will they be able to make it to the testing stage? Or maybe you will be cast in a movie. What role will you play and what will you show? Because I was really curious.

(I heard about the audition so far.)

Spielberg burst into laughter as Jaeik entered the office.

(Ah. Even rumors. It’s all about giving a few more chances to an actor who feels good.)

Anyway, Jaeik only gave a second chance to the actor he felt while attending the first interview. That’s not a lot of people, just ten people.

It didn’t pass, it just gave me a chance to participate in the second callback. However, it could be that your feelings are not right.

However, Spielberg smiled softly at Jaeik’s expression, not knowing what he was thinking.

I have already checked the audition videos of the people selected by Jaeik. Also, his eyes weren’t wrong.

I don’t know if he selected them knowingly or not, but he thought that even if he had seen all the people Jaeik selected, he would have passed the ten people.

All of them were actors with clear merits. The most important thing in common, like the ability to immerse yourself in a character in an instant, or good tone or diction. Knowingly or unknowingly, it was that he was an actor with strengths.

However, the fact that this is literally an ability that comes from experience was what made Jae-Ik amazing.

‘Or is it an innate eye?’

(By the way, you should pay more attention to casting for the lead role in our movie. Everyone is curious about you.)

(Of course I have to attend the testing.)

Spielberg’s words sounded like pain. The main cast has already been decided to some extent, and only the callback stage is ahead.

It just means to show your face in the casting of the lead actors. Nowhere did rumors go as fast as Hollywood.

Rumors of Jae-ik’s non-traditional travels have long been known, and reporters from Gossip magazine have covered the scene several times.

That’s why it also meant that Hollywood should build up the pride of leading actors.

Honestly, I don’t think he knows, but the hottest issue in Hollywood right now is Song Jae-ik.

A writer of the underworld, a genius producer and director recognized by Spielberg.

Because rumors are circulating with all kinds of adjectives attached. Rumors, of course, were widespread, with as many negatives as positives.

A kid with Spielberg on his back. It’s like an Asian who luckily hit the jackpot by writing a piece well.

Of course, Song Jae-ik, who hates being bothered, didn’t particularly pay attention to the party he invited and didn’t show his face.

(Oh. That’s good news. I wondered what it would be like if I attended alone. Actors would prefer a young director rather than an old director like me.)

(Ehehe. Okay. I’ll shine some faces here and there.)

At that, Spielberg laughed. Of course, I didn’t mean to just do business or anything like that.

It was just that I was a little concerned about the negative rumors about Jae Ik that were spreading in Hollywood.

Besides, some might call it a star, but this place is dirtier than any other place.

A place where they would not hesitate to insert a blade even if they saw even the slightest gap.

(I’ll decide to watch it at the audition. It’s probably a good opportunity for you too. You’re new to the Hollywood film production system. Movies definitely have a different taste from dramas.)

Seeing director Spielberg talking like that, it seemed like he really needed to do something.

Besides, I already had the experience of attending Daniel Duke’s party in Cannes.

There were some directors and actors who turned their faces at that time.

Besides, the most important fact.

Any place or party.

Isn’t there anything you can do at all? I wonder if I lead the seat and lead the atmosphere.
