Submit To The Boss Lucia And August Novel Chapter 731 – Lucia’s Talent.
“Lucia, it was perfect, you are talented in acting.” Leo sincerely exclaimed. Lucia was flattered. She smiled and replied, “Thanks, but I know you are flattering me. I just acted as a body double. I don’t think I deserve your praise.”
As she spoke, she pointed to one part of the script and hesitated to say, “Although I’m new, I have a suggestion. If it’s not appropriate, please forget it.”
Leo could not help but frown at her and motioned for her to continue.
“I think there was a problem with the positioning of the third camera in the last scene. It was very easy to film a substitute’s side face, which would cause a lot of trouble for the film editor. It will increase the cost unconsciously, and the film after multiple editing would not be that aesthetic.”
She said it in one breath, carefully peeking at Leo’s response, only to find that Leo was not angry, but was pondering over her words. Finally, Leo nodded his head in recognition, and earnestly asked, “Then in your opinion, how to improve it?”
Lucia spread out the map of the set on one side, circled an area with her finger, and then simulated the movement of the No. 3 camera. “I think we can adjust the position of the No. 3 camera. Let the actors enter the scene from the oblique rear, and then shoot along this track. It will be better.”
As if she had thought of something else, she added, “In addition, the position of the artificial tree next to the scene needs to be changed. Now the shadow cast by the tree just blocked the light source of the No. 5 camera, and it will look very dark.”
Leo admired Lucia very much, immediately informed the staff to adjust the camera position and props according to Lucia’s proposal, and then praised Lucia, “Your opinions and ideas are very professional, I didn’t expect that you are talented in this aspect.”
“I’m not that good. You are flattering me.” She hurriedly waved her hand and said sheepishly, “In fact, I learned a lot of shooting skills and habits from you, and your movies have always been the benchmark for me.” “Do you understand my shooting skills?”
Hearing her reply, Leo was both
surprised and pleased. “It seems that you are
also involved in directing. Whom did you learn from? I must pay a visit to this
person some other day. This person must
have good taste. It’s this person’s honor to teach such a clever apprentice.”
Lucia hurriedly waved her hand, “I’m not a professional. I just studied directing for
two years when I was in Amecan.
There is still a big gap between me and other famous directors.”
Hearing that, Leo looked at Lucia thoughtfully and was about to go on. The
supervisor rushed back to remind them that
they could shoot the next scene.
Lucia hurried back to her place.
The second act was a scene to test the professional ability of the body double
because she needed to patiently explain her identity to Timothy and Janet in the
play, and dispel their idea of calling her “mother”. Therefore, they needed to
shoot.
the side faces of the two children, and naturally, Lucia’s side face must be shot.
Fortunately, she had arranged the camera position in advance, and the No. 3
camera came into the scene from her oblique rear. When the photographer
moved the camera along the track and zoomed in, what he shot were almost
Timothy and Janet’s face.
Seeing that the camera was about to shoot her side face, Lucia gently stroked
her long hair to her shoulder. At the same
time, the No. 3 camera had been shifted to shoot the side faces of several
people.
The loose hair just blocked Lucia’s cheeks. They could only vaguely see curly
eyelashes and a tall nose.
Lucia slowly said the familiar lines in a warm and gentle voice. Timothy and Janet
are very clever. They could not conceal
their love for their mother.
This is the truest emotion of the two children. Perhaps if another person stood in
front of them, they would not behave
like that.
Seeing that, everyone seemed to forget that she was Lucia and that they were
filming. It seemed that everyone was the real person who live in the script. It was
just like everyone’s real life.
Leo uttered a “cut”. Then everyone come back from the plot to reality, and the
scene rang with thunderous applause. Lucia bowed to the staff with two kids and
then left the set. “Leo, if we finished, I will take Timothy and Janet home
first.”
Today, she had to take two children to select schools. After all, they have reached
the age of enrollment.
“Lucia, wait a minute.” Leo hurriedly stopped her and said in a deep voice, “I
think you are suitable to play the heroine,
and you are the biological mother of Timothy and Janet, so they can better step
into their role, so….”
Lucia suddenly felt a bad premonition. She waved her hand hurriedly. However,
before she could refuse, Leo had already
said his opinion first.
“I want to discuss with the investor to change the actresses of the heroine in this play to
you. Now I want to ask your
opinion.”
“I’m Sorry, Mr. Wensley.” Lucia said with resignation, “I have no problem with my children
to involve in this industry
because I respect their decision, but I am not interested in this industry, so please forgive
me. I can only refuse your
request.”
Leo was obviously disappointed. He sighed, “You must be a good actor. It’s a pity to give
up like this.”
“I still hope that I can become an excellent director like you. I should never forget my
dream, right?” She turned her head
and smiled as if to comfort Leo.
Hearing that, Leo gave up persuading her and never mentioned it again. He looked at her
and said, “I will introduce a teacher to you in a few days. I hope it can help you.”
As a director, Leo was respected in this field. He created countless outstanding movies. It
is a once-in-a-lifetime
opportunity for Lucia to get his introduction.
Lucia immediately expressed her gratitude to Leo and talked about the details of
tomorrow’s filming. Then she led Timothy and Janet to leave the studio.
At the same time, in the luxurious dressing room, Stephanie, who was removing makeup,
suddenly changed her face, stared at the assistant behind her and shouted, “What? Say it
again!”
The assistant muttered nervously, “Leo said that he wanted to give this role to Ms.
Mitchell, but Ms. Mitchell refused.” “She’s just a housewife. She is nothing!” Stephanie
immediately became furious and pushed all the expensive cosmetics in front of the makeup mirror to the ground.
The makeup artist next to her could not dodge. With a sudden shake of his hand, he
forcefully pulled the false eyelashes off her makeup.
Stephanie screamed with pain and threw her hand directly into the makeup artist’s face.
Hearing the noise, the agent hurriedly pushed the door in, helped her to a chair, and sat
down. He coaxed her
obsequiously, “Oh, baby, I told you so many times. Don’t be angry, or it will do harm to
your skin. Just tell me who the hell makes you angry today!”
She pushed away the agent disdainfully. She asked angrily, “Why did Leo ask that bitch to
play the heroine? What’s the problem with him?”
The agent secretly rolled his eyes at the little assistant, and then said, “It’s just a rumor.
You are the heroine appointed by investors. No matter how powerful Leo is, he will not
change the actress easily.”
