Chapter 93 Cheating Acting

Chapter 93 Cheating Acting Skills

The so-called good actor is not only reflected in his acting skills, but his appearance is also a very important factor for an actor and a film and television work. Otherwise, why would so many directors like to use vase actors?

The vase actors may not have very good acting skills, but they can't help being good-looking, eye-catching and eye-catching!

Although our director is just a third-rate TV drama director, he still has his own artistic pursuits!

So after Xie Zihao knocked on the door politely and came in, the director was the first to take the initiative to speak:

"You have a good image, Mr. Sherman. I see on your resume that you majored in history and archeology. What a pity. You should study acting or music. You have the talent to become a super idol..."

"Thank you, Mr. Director, but I'm not good at acting. The temptation of five thousand gold pounds is great, and I have just graduated. You know..."

Xie Zihao responded modestly to the director's praise, and then waited for the test from the audition officers.

He could clearly see that the other two interviewers looked somewhat convinced.

In addition to the director, the other two auditioners are the producer and screenwriter of the show. Among them, the producer Mr. Carter obviously has the most say.

Xie Zihao also knows that unlike the directors in the East who call the shots, here in Hollywood, the producer is usually the leader of a crew, and the director can only take a back seat. Except for a few well-known directors, most of the time the director is just a tool.

, even after the film is shot, it doesn’t even have the final editing rights.

So in the end, whether he can get this role depends on whether he can get the approval of the producer. No matter how much the director admires him, it will be useless without the approval of the producer.

Therefore, no matter how much you say, it is useless. It is better to leave a good impression on the other person. Moreover, whether in his previous life or in another world, he is not the kind of social character. Such a simple and neat performance will easily arouse the favor of others.

At least it won't cause any bad feelings.

Sure enough, the three people above all laughed after hearing Xie Zihao's candid words. Compared with the audition actors, every time they mentioned why they came to audition for this role, they always said "I love acting" and "pursuing better artistic achievements".

In addition to his clumsy or exaggerated performances, it was rare for Xie Zihao to honestly say that I came here for money, which gave them a good first impression of the young man in front of them.

Even producer Carter and director Simmons, who are both male, do not have feelings of mutual repulsion in their hearts. Instead, they find this guy quite interesting.

The producer, Mr. Carter, actually had no objection to Xie Zihao's presence at the audition. After all, this was a chess piece for the young candidate. He himself recommended joining the audition. If the candidate can become famous in the future, then this

The story will also become a good story in Hollywood about Bole’s keen eye for talent!

Although he also wanted the crew to start work as soon as possible for his own benefit, it had nothing to do with his personal feelings.

Moreover, the young man in front of him has no reliance on this crew. Once he signs the contract, as a producer, he can actually extract a certain amount of share from Mr. Lance Sherman's salary.

This is also a common practice in the entertainment industry. There is always a gap between the fees reported to the superior and the actual fees. Everyone is involved and everyone understands it tacitly.

This remuneration can at least bring him an extra income of about one hundred gold pounds. If he is the kind of actor who has an agency behind him, he will have to earn less. This alone makes Carter feel dissatisfied with the young man in front of him.

People have some good feelings.

Although this small amount of money is nothing to him, it is still left after dividing it with other people, but it cannot be accumulated into a big sum.

In addition to props, there is also money to be made in costumes, lighting, catering, etc. Even after the entire crew has been running for a month, nearly one-third of the total investment can be secretly allocated from the books.

Of course, one third of it is the "legitimate proceeds" of the company behind him, and the rest goes into the pockets of these individuals.

This practice of taking kickbacks from projects has become an unwritten practice in Hollywood and even the entire North American entertainment industry, and the producer has no psychological burden at all.

Because even the investors probably know about it, but as long as the producers and distributors don’t look too ugly, such as insulting people’s IQ by asking for thousands of dollars for a straw hat, the investors will not take the initiative to pursue anything, and most of them will open their eyes.

Close one eye.

What's more, even if you go to court, even if the investor can win in the end, he won't get much compensation. This will delay the progress of the project or even disrupt the project, and all the initial investment will be in vain.

Therefore, even if the employer encounters this situation, most of the time it will have to bite the bullet and swallow this bitter pill.

Of course, as a producer, Carter is usually not overly greedy. After all, they also need to consider their reputation in the industry, and if they really meet a ruthless character who doesn't rub their eyes, they won't be able to take advantage of it.

.

Carter is the kind of person who seeks benefits within a reasonable range and is quite disciplined. He really doesn't care what a new actor thinks.

As for screenwriter Ms. Mace, although she is the nominal third person on the crew, to be honest, most screenwriters only have that much say in the crew. Otherwise, Hollywood screenwriters would not organize a general strike to defend themselves.

Looking for more suitable treatment.

Seeing that the other two had no objections, director Simmons said:

"Have you read the script?"

Xie Zihao replied neither humble nor overbearing: "Yes, Mr. Director."

So Simmons said:

"Well, then you can come and perform the chase scene in the parking lot. I hope you can give us a surprise!"

"Thank you, director, I'll prepare it!"

Xie Zihao said something polite after hearing this, and then began to take a deep breath to adjust, and activated his spiritual power, and then his whole temperament suddenly changed.

"Annie! I really like you,..."

"Although my career still depends on my family, I am confident that I will succeed through my own efforts..."

I saw the young man in front of me suddenly change from a sunny and artistic young man to a slightly crazy and gloomy young man. This sudden change of temperament is usually only experienced by senior actors or young people with professional backgrounds.

Only good actors can do it.

The young man in front of me is just a fresh graduate, and he has never been exposed to acting on his resume.

At this time, even the producer, who had just thought that this person had no acting skills and just had a good face, could not help but feel slightly surprised.

This acting skill? This transformation of temperament?

It’s interesting!

This is the common thought among the three audition officers.

"Have you really never studied acting?"

Ms. Mace, the female screenwriter who had not spoken much at this time, couldn't help but ask the other two people a common question.

Xie Zihao, who maintained his current state, said with a slightly melancholic temperament:

"Yes, ma'am! My family doesn't like the entertainment industry, and I don't like acting myself. The only acting experience I remember was when I was in the first grade of elementary school, playing a prince in a school puppet show. In fact, I think I

Better to be a tree behind the prince!"

The female screenwriter chuckled and was amused.

The producer laughed and said:

"Yes, Mr. Sherman, you are very talented in acting, but we have other actors coming for interviews later, so please go back and wait for our notification!"

Xie Zihao didn't know whether he passed or failed, and what the three big guys on the crew would say after he left. After hearing the producer's words, he just bowed politely and exited the room.

Three updates!

Go to bed first! Good night everyone, see you tomorrow!
