Supporting roles must also be played well

"Have you finished your makeup?"

Assistant Director Tanaka Sakura walked in and said firmly, "Everyone came to prepare for filming."

Everyone agreed and followed.

The shooting location is at the school. Before filming started, the assistant director called Naoki and told him the identity and line of the character played by Naoki.

Sure enough, the role played by Naoki is the bad boy who dominates the school, the villain in the film.

It's a shame Chiba Nanako isn't here, otherwise she could have appeared in her true colors.

As for the lines... As expected, there were only a few lines, Naoki glanced at them and remembered them.

Memorizing the script alone wasn't enough, Tanaka Sakura told him carefully about precautions during filming, such as the walking posture of a bad boy, where to speak, eyes and tone of actions when speaking, etc. Overall, acting is also a technical activity.

"Are you ready?"

Tanaka Sakura looked at Naoki, her eyes were sharp, and she was different from before. Obviously, once she entered the working state, she was a strong and determined woman.

Naoki nodded and said, "Ready."

"Then do the test first, you guys go and get ready, and start right away."

"Asakawa-kun, come on." Ichika clenched her fists and whispered, "Don't be nervous."

Ichika plays the heroine's sister, she doesn't have a role at the moment, so she stands up to watch the drama.

"I'm not nervous."

Naoki shook his head.

Ichika said angrily: "You tried again."

Who dares! I really wasn't nervous, it was just a supporting role with a few lines. In the dream, not only did he break through the survival of the Apocalypse school, but he also drank with the demon Lu Bu in the shogunate era!

Strong winds and waves have come, and the school film shooting in front of him is at most a small puddle!

"Come on Asakawa-kun." Ichika approached, and whispered. "If filming is finished successfully, Onee-san will give you a gift."

Naoki was hopeless and looked disgusted: "You said the same thing last time."

"Oh right this time, go go go go."

....

"Begin!"

A staff member shouted.

Naoki received the order, his eyes suddenly became lazy, his hands in his pockets, and he took two younger brothers who didn't even have names to start the path of acting as brats.

Even if it was just a trick, but since he had already done it, he had to do his best, because if he made a mistake, he would have to repeat the shot, and everyone would be involved, so it was better to skip the troublesome thing.

"Okay, that's all."

Seeing Naoki's actions, Tanaka Sakura's eyes lit up, and she felt a little more confident in her heart. He had invited Naoki to audition before. On the one hand, the supporting role was not important, and on the other hand, Naoki's height and appearance was impressive –

In the age of seeing faces, even if it is a bad boy, it is necessary to choose someone with good looks to play with, and being ugly will scare the audience.

Tanaka Sakura was quite worried beforehand, as Naoki was a newcomer with no experience in filmmaking. This newcomer probably performed well below the stage. Once filming officially starts, it's likely to be nervous and stage fright, some people in serious situations may even speak badly.

Luckily Naoki gave him a big surprise. His movements and demeanor were very natural, and his tone of voice was also quite good. Under the eyes of the public, she couldn't see the slightest bit of nervousness on her face... Tanaka Sakura was ready for the NG, she didn't expect it to pass.

"Ichika..." Bearded uncle looked at Naoki in filming, his eyes were worried, "Isn't this kid really a bad boy?"

"It is not like that." Ichika lifted her chin and said proudly with a smile, "Asakawa-kun is a top student, and his academic performance is excellent, it's not impossible that he will be accepted into the University of Tokyo next year.'

Uncle Beard sighed silently, and analyzed:

"So, Asakawa is perfect for acting."

Ichika's eyes lit up: "Uncle beard, how about letting Asakawa-kun be your actor?"

"It's fine if the other party agrees. I don't think Asakawa is interested." Uncle Beard shook his head gently and paused, "And the two of them are actors, so they are destined to rarely get together, and it will be difficult to be together."

"Makes sense..." Ichika held her chin with her right hand, nodded her head in deep sympathy, and muttered to herself, "After that, I'll work hard outside to make money and let Asakawa-kun become a home cook? "

Uncle Beard dropped a drop of cold sweat on his head and said solemnly:

"You should practice seriously now, practice your acting skills, and don't waste your time on anything else."

"Yes yes."

...

Shooting continues.

Naoki was just a supporting role, and it was a shock to get through it once. Everyone in the crew was very busy, and no one would pay much attention to it.

Except Ichika.

"Asakawa-kun is amazing." Ichika comes and hands over a bottle of juice drink. "When I first appeared on camera, I was very nervous because so many people were watching."

Naoki took the drink, opened the lid and took a sip: "Are you still nervous?"

"Of course, I was so nervous that my palms were sweating." Ichika put her hands behind her back and looked around silently. Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, he whispered, "The prize will be given to Asakawa-kun when we return tonight."

Naoki looked disgusted: "No need."

....

Since there was still a scene in the afternoon, he didn't need to take off his clothes for now. Naoki stayed on the crew and watched how others were filming, but he learned a lot.

In the blink of an eye, Naoki and Ichika ate the bento ordered by the crew together. The crew took a short break for half an hour, and then they got busy with their daily shooting routine.

....

Time passed quickly.

It was soon night.

The final scene of Naoki's career has finally arrived.

The cold wind whistled.

The sun sets like blood.

Under the school's cherry blossom tree, bad boy Naoki is having a kendo duel with the protagonist.

Kendo sounds a bit mysterious, but it's actually very common. Almost every high school has a Kendo club. Every year a national level student Kendo competition is held, because in physical education classes, both men and women can take Kendo as an option.

"I heard that person is a kendo expert, will Asakawa-kun be hurt?"

Ichika was a little worried.

"It's normal to get hurt while filming, right?" Uncle Beard sighed, "As an actor, if you have no consciousness at all, and it's just a bamboo sword… eh? Asakawa is also a kendo master?"

...

Under the cherry tree.

With the director's orders, the duel began immediately.

The two people collided with the bamboo sword, and their movements were sharp and graceful, which made people stunned, thinking that the school film had become a samurai film.

"Asakawa-kun is actually a kendo master…" Ichika also opened her eyes wide, her face full of shock, "Wait, how do I feel like I've seen her before?"

"Feels familiar..."
