Chapter 31 Isn’t this very interesting?

Akikawa Sosuke's analysis of Itakura Misaki as a "screenwriter and director"

This completely changed Itakura Misaki's opinion of him.

Itakura Misaki was pleasantly surprised to find that her artist might have talents and potential that other regular artists did not have.

and.

She also realized that making her debut directly in the entertainment industry was the fastest way to get closer to her idol, Yoko Okino.

After all, Yoko Okino spends most of her time filming now.

Itakura Misaki opened the company's file sharing server with great enthusiasm and began to look for suitable audition information on it, while also explaining it to Akikawa Sousuke.

“There are usually three ways for artists to get audition opportunities.”

"The first is a direct invitation from the production company or the director."

"This is an exclusive opportunity for artists who have already achieved good results or have been famous for a long time, so PASS (skip)."

"The second way is to rely on the agent's connections and resources to get audition opportunities."

"We don't have this either, so PASS."

Akikawa Sosuke: “.”

"The last option is to choose a role that suits you from the existing open audition information."

"We at Wonderful have a very high status in the industry, so there are also many casting companies, also known as 'casting companies', and directors in the industry who send us audition requests."

"It's just like campus recruitment in college. If you see a suitable role, you can directly make an appointment for an audition."

After saying this, Itakura Misaki realized that the artist in front of her seemed to have never attended college.

"cough"

She coughed awkwardly.

"In short, for us who have no popularity and no connections, this is the only way to get an audition opportunity."

"Will these auditions be for roles that don't have a lot of screen time, or for works that aren't very popular?"

It was at this time that Akikawa Sosuke raised questions.

“No, the company will of course screen these audition requests.”

"If it's just a minor role, it won't appear on the company's internal audition request list."

Itakura Misaki flatly denied it.

"All the audition requests we see are for roles with names and surnames, with at least a few lines and a role in the work."

“That’s the advantage of Wonderful.”

"Of course, if it's an important role in a good production with a good director, it won't be cast in this way."

Itakura Misaki was explaining things to Akikawa Sousuke while screening the audition requests.

"By the way, does Akikawa-san have any preferences, or what kind of roles are you good at?"

"Well, it's better to choose a character that is closer to reality. If it's an ancient theme or a fantasy theme, it might be a little difficult."

Akikawa Sosuke answered Itakura Misaki's question softly.

His so-called acting experience actually comes from the fact that he played all kinds of characters in his previous life due to work reasons.

Because his flaws are rarely discovered, Akikawa Sosuke boasts that his acting skills are good.

But if it deviates too much from reality, Akikawa Sorasuke will not be sure that he can perform it perfectly.

Itakura Misaki didn't say anything, but entered the relevant types into the computer and then screened out several audition requirements for roles that met the requirements.

When she saw the title of the work at the top of the audition notice, she suddenly shuddered all over.

"'The Lost City Girls: Voice of the Dead'?! This is a work where Ms. Yoko is the heroine!"

As an ultimate fan of Yoko Okino, Misaki Itakura naturally knew that Yoko Okino would soon play the heroine in this popular Japanese detective novel.

Therefore, she felt quite incredible when she found out that this production was still recruiting actors to audition.

Because this is not a regular film or television work.

The difficulty is not ordinary high.

Normally, it is absolutely impossible to find a complete newcomer with no actual acting experience or works to play this kind of work.

Through a brief encounter with Akikawa Sosuke.

However, Itakura Misaki was secretly hoping in her heart that Akikawa Sousuke might really be able to bring her more surprises.

Misaki Itakura clicked on it with a nervous and excited mood, and then carefully read the script summary, role information, and audition requirements.

Akikawa Sosuke also noticed that his agent seemed a little nervous.

He didn't say anything, but just watched from the side.

A few minutes later.

Akikawa Sosuke also had a general understanding of this work. This work tells the story of a female detective who suddenly accepted a commission and came to an unfamiliar city one day to investigate a recent serial murder case.

Since she entered the city and started investigating,
She began to receive a series of letters asking for help and identifying the murderer.

But what is weird is that.

The sender of each letter happened to be a victim who died not long ago.

However, the letters were always sent after their death.

Unfortunately,

After identification by the victims' families, it was found that the notes on these letters were all written by the victims.

As the detective heroine investigates in depth, various clues emerge.

In the end, she solved the mystery of the strange letters written by the deceased and successfully captured the criminal.

The role required for this audition is the last person to die in the story——

An excellent, cheerful and well-liked high school boy.

“This, I think it’s okay.”

Akikawa Sosuke noticed that Itakura Misaki was staring at the computer screen and had not spoken for a long time, so he took the initiative to speak.

"Mr. Akikawa, do you think you can play this role?"

Itakura Misaki repeated it again to Akikawa Sousuke.

"Yes, although there are some science fiction elements, the world view and background are still close to life. The character is not out of touch with reality, so I should be able to play the role."

However, after listening to Akikawa Sosuke's explanation,
Itakura Misaki did not show any relief.

Instead, he seemed even more nervous.

He looked like a heavily indebted gambler who had bet all his remaining property on a racehorse.

Although I know deep down that the chances of it standing out are slim, I still have great expectations.

"Um. Excuse me, Mr. Akikawa."

“This is not a regular movie or TV series.”

“It’s a stage play.”

Itakura Misaki said in a deep voice.

"A stage play?"

"Well, a stage play is like a drama, which requires actors to perform on the stage."

Itakura Misaki began to explain to Akikawa Sousuke in a deep voice.

"The biggest difference between stage plays and movies and TV series is that actors need to perform directly in front of the audience."

“And it requires a coherent and complete performance of the entire script.”

"Besides, stage plays are not like filming. There is no chance to reshoot if something goes wrong. So if something goes wrong during the performance, it could implicate other actors and ruin the entire work."

“Also, unlike what can be captured by high-definition cameras, the actors’ subtle changes in expression when shooting a film.”

“The performances in stage plays are usually more exaggerated and vivid.”

"Because the actors need to ensure that the audience sitting far away can also see and feel their emotions and movements. This means that the actors' body language and facial expressions will be more obvious and exaggerated."

"In short, for people who have no acting experience, stage plays are more difficult than movies and TV series."

"That's why I'm a little worried about whether Mr. Akikawa is really capable of doing this."

Itakura Misaki said with some difficulty.

At this time, under the table, where Akikawa Sosuke could not see,

Itakura Misaki twisted the fingers of her hands together nervously.

As Akikawa Sosuke's manager, she must explain all the risks and pros and cons to her artist.

The reason why Itakura Misaki did not turn around was that she did not want her desire to participate in this work to affect Akikawa Sousuke's judgment.

But deep down in her heart, Itakura Misaki was still very eager to be able to participate in this work and have the opportunity to stand at the same work site with her idol Okino Yoko.

Itakura Misaki was so nervous that she held her breath, and the passage of time seemed to be infinitely stretched at this moment.

immediately.

Akikawa Sosuke's voice brought her back to reality.

"Well, isn't this interesting?"

Hearing this, Itakura Misaki suddenly turned around and looked at Akikawa Sousuke.

She did not see any hesitation or doubt on Akikawa Sosuke's face.

Instead, there was an expression of interest.
