Chapter 57 Filter Conditions

Michelle obviously had some ballet training, just posing, doing some light spins, standing up, no problem.But in the final arabesque pose, it was revealed.

In the Arabesque position, the dancer holds both hands flat, stands on one leg, and stretches the other leg at a right angle as far as it can go.Michelle is doing the low-difficulty version, which is not very decent. If she is asked to do the high-difficulty version on tiptoe, she will not look like a ballet dancer at all.

It seems that for this role, one who can act must be selected from those who can dance ballet, not the one who can dance ballet from those who can act.

If Meg's back hadn't been hurt, Hilary's role would have been perfect for her.thought Ronald.

Send Michelle out of the audition room and call the next one.

"Drink this, Michelle, from vegetables. Vegetarian food can make you healthy, quit alcohol, cigarettes and all addictive things."

Ronald noticed that the agent who accompanied Michelle seemed to be a couple, talking about the benefits of vegetarianism.

Seeing Ronald, Michelle showed a wry smile and began to drink the green paste.

Ronald could only shrug his shoulders, expressing that there was nothing he could do to help her.

Hillary's auditions are over.Ronald started calling Leroy's audition actors again.

Leroy's character, a talented dancer from the ghetto, who is illiterate, comes to the audition with his female partner, who is eliminated and he stays.

"Patrick Swayze" is another strange surname with two consonants stacked together. Fortunately, I asked Margaret how to pronounce it before I came out.

"Please go to the locker room and change into your practice clothes, and then go in for an audition, thank you."

"Thank you."

Thank you very politely from Patrick.

Ronald noticed that he had thin eyes and a manly, if old-looking face.

Sure enough, according to his resume, he was already 27, so it was a bit difficult to pretend to be young at this age.

But Patrick's ballet skills are top-notch, and the ballet's big jumps, two-week jumps, are easily completed.Professional quality, according to Margery.

The acting part is also good.It's a pity that there are forehead lines on his forehead, which makes it hard to believe that he is a high school student.

Ronald took down the director's and producer's comments and asked Patrick to go back and wait for news.

Another person who came to audition for Leroy was a pillar of the American Ballet School, and it is said that he has been spotted by Balanchine, the director of the New York City Ballet.In addition to the parents, there was also an agent and a manager who accompanied her, surrounded by stars like the moon.

When he was called to go in, his mother would also go in with him.Ronald hurriedly stopped him. This is a rule, no matter how famous an actor is, only one person can audition.

The mother was very unhappy, and she was still pointing and cursing, saying that some people with a low position would know how to use it immediately if they had a little power, and his son would be destined to become a big star.A star mother cannot be deprived of the right to watch her son take his first steps on the road to stardom.

Ronald shook his head with a wry smile. His son came from a wealthy family. I'm afraid it would be difficult to play the role of Leroy, a low-level commoner.

At the time of the audition, the ballet part was successfully completed.

But the acting part was poorly scored, and the mother, who was born in a slum in Harlem, couldn't play a character at all.

Leroy joins the gang, is illiterate, is interested in ballet, and picks up trash in exchange for ballet class time.

Ma Bao acted like a Barbie doll wearing an apron and cooking, showing a fake appearance everywhere.

The atmosphere is totally out of place.

Sure enough, director Parker gave a very low evaluation, and Mabao was completely useless.

This audition is really about acting skills, dancing skills, appearance, temperament, all aspects must be in line, and there is no difference.

The next character to audition was Montgomery.It was the student character who was professional, sensitive, had a secret (Ki), and had a mother with schizophrenia.

Ronald began to call his number, and found that the actor with messy teeth in the photo yesterday hadn't come, so he was planning to skip him and call the next one.

The last boy in the waiting area stood up, "Is it my turn?"

"Well, is that you? Your teeth?" Ronald realized that he was the actor with the messy teeth.But now the teeth are very neat, exactly like the two people in the original photo.No wonder I couldn't recognize it.

"Um, did you find a dentist? Didn't you read the audition notice? What we need to find is an actor student with low self-esteem, so we chose you." Ronald pointed to his own teeth.I can't help but feel sorry for him in my heart.

"Oh my god. My agent just sent me to the dentist for false front teeth. I didn't know about that beforehand."

"Please, if the director needs it, I can remove the dentures and replace them with a pair of cheap dentures bought in the supermarket, so that they will look right. Please, Please." The boy said, clasping his hands together in a pleading gesture . "

"Where's your agent?"

"He's busy with other business, and I'm here alone today."

"It's okay. I'm just an assistant. The final result is decided by the director. I will tell the director about your situation. Don't worry."

Ronald saw that he was not accompanied by a manager like the others, he came alone, and he tried hard to play ugly for the sake of the role, so he felt a little sympathetic, and hurried to accompany him in.

Talking about orthodontics in Director Parker's ear, Parker nodded and agreed to let him have a try.

However, director Parker was also very helpless about his orthodontic teeth. After the orthodontic treatment, his temperament changed drastically. He was not like Montgomery at all, and makeup was also difficult to solve.

Being an actor is a weird job. Sometimes, being ugly has an advantage.

After an afternoon of auditions, not a single role was chosen.Producer Da Silva's face was a bit ugly, especially Michelle Pfeiffer, whom he greeted, was not selected, and went after director Parker to discuss.

"Isn't Michelle Pfeiffer very good? We can use stand-ins to solve those difficult movements..."

"No, she has a lot of medium shots, so she can't use a stand-in..."

"Is this normal?" Ronald asked Margery.

"It's pretty normal. Sometimes for a leading role, there are auditions for several months. There are also directors who can't find the leading role candidate in their minds, and finally cancel the project."

"So we're counting on the big audition at the acting high school over the weekend?"

"Yes, there will be 1400 students auditioning, including seniors and seniors."

……

On the weekend morning, the crew walked into the gate of the performing arts college.

However, the teacher who received them did not take them directly to the auditorium, but invited all the members into the principal's conference room.

The principal and school trustees are already waiting inside.

After the crew sat down, there was no time to exchange greetings.

I saw the headmaster took out a piece of paper and began to read:
"In view of the script of the movie 'Hot Lunch', which slanders and slanders the quality of our school's students, the Board of Trustees and the New York Board of Education have decided that until the script is corrected, the Academy of Performing Arts will no longer cooperate with you in casting, and will not be allowed to School students participate in the auditions of the crew, and no longer rent school premises for filming."

problem occurs!
 I wish all readers a happy Mid-Autumn Festival
