"Boss, can I ask for a day off?" Portia called Chen Chen carefully.
"Yes, nothing will happen tomorrow, anyway." Chen Yan said.
Portia was so excited that Chen Ye didn't make things difficult for her.
The following day, Portia contacted the Actors Union.
I got the address of the studio from the actors union.
Although the actors' union has resources, their biggest disadvantage is that they cannot guarantee any role.
Even if it is a dragon character, they cannot guarantee it.
Major film companies will cooperate with the actors' union, which is mutually beneficial.
But such cooperation is very fragile.
To put it plainly, the actor's union has the power to recommend, but has no decision.
For example, when a movie is filmed, the producer will send a form to the actors union for the required actors.
And this form is not only for the actor's union, but also to major agencies.
In this regard, the actors union is not as advantageous as the agency.
Because the agents of the brokerage company will help their artists perform public relations and walk around.
The Actors' Union will not help their registered members move around.
Portia hurried to the set.
She still doesn't know what role she is going to interview.
There are a lot of people in the audition studio today, all of them are the same as her and are indecent actors.
However, we can see that there should be a lot of roles released by the producers today.
Although they are all incompetent characters, it is very important for every actor who comes to audition.
Every actor has heard a variety of stories before entering the industry.
Before a certain actor became famous, how hard he worked, how to start from a young actor step by step, and finally became famous.
This story is universal in entertainment circles around the world.
Of course, this is also true.
But this is a minority after all.
In fact, most famous actors.
Their first role may be a role with positive features and lines.
There is no such thing as a group performance. In the end, only a few can achieve success.
However, most of the actors who can step into Hollywood have the idea of becoming successful without success.
Knowing that the odds of winning the jackpot are slim, but they still go forward.
They live in slums and work three times a day.
But as long as they have a role, they will spend half a year's salary on clothes and make-up.
In Hollywood, the unspoken rules of relying on the sale of hue to get the role are everywhere.
And this hidden rule is not limited to men and women.
Portia got her own script and the role requirements.
Her script is just one sentence, but there is a close-up.
For a group performance like her, a line and a feature are already lucky.
For today's audition, Portia deliberately put on clothes and shoes purchased in Higashi-Ginza.
And she's lucky today because she feels she fits her role setting.
The audition was for a casting director and a camera director, both of whom were associate directors.
Two people set up a table in front of them.
Then the actors went up one by one, performed a performance, and spoke a few lines.
This process is very fast, and everyone has less than thirty seconds of performance time.
And their two unified answers are, thank you for your cooperation.
"Portia, you look so pretty today."
At this time, a wave girl came over and said hello to Portia.
"Annisa." Portia turned to look at the woman.
Anissa, like Portia, is an extra.
They came to Los Angeles almost at the same time, and once were roommates.
The difference is that Alisa already has a brokerage firm.
And Portia is still 'Lonely Ghost'.
Compared to a year ago, Anissa seemed more beautiful.
She seems to have done some trimming.
From a female point of view, Portia still sees which minor surgeries Anlisa has performed.
It seems that she should have made some money in more than a year.
Portia also wanted to go a little whole.
She always felt that her jawbone was a little big.
If you want to be a little smaller, you can make yourself more feminine.
However, the cost of osteotomy is not low, at least $ 8,000.
"You don't seem to be cheap on this dress." Anisala wore Portia's clothes.
She behaved a little rudely and looked very impolite.
Portia pulled back his clothes.
Anissa hid her mouth and chuckled: "Your taste is still so bad, you should ask me as a staff officer, and I can give you the right guidance."
Portia turned black. "Don't touch my clothes, you don't have to pay."
"Do you know that this dress is really earthy on you?"
There is no real friendship between women in Hollywood.
Even if they are not famous actresses.
In order to compete for the same role, Anissa slowed the alarm clock in Portia's room for two hours and cut the clothes she had prepared.
In the end, Portia naturally missed that role, and Anissa successfully grabbed the role.
This ended their friendship and roommate relationship.
Portia turned to leave, and Anissa looked at Portia's back.
Although she said about Portia's dressing taste.
But in fact Portia's dress is very valuable.
And it goes well with Portia's temperament, stylish and sexy.
And they auditioned for the same role today.
And the role of this role is to be a fashionable woman.
So the appearance of Portia made Anissa feel threatened.
Anissa went up, probably kicked toe on Portia's high-heeled shoes.
"Oh ..." Portia immediately lost his balance and sat heavily on the ground.
The heel of her high-heeled shoes was broken, and at the same time, the original tight clothes were cracked due to the range of movement.
"Portia, are you okay." Arisa went up pretending to help Portia.
Portia didn't know it was Anissa's means, and a tear came as soon as she got up.
It turned out that Anissa deliberately stepped on Portia's corner.
Suddenly, Portia's clothes were killed in half.
The original and elegant clothes made her look like a beggar at the moment.
"Haha ..." a laugh came from the audition shed.
"Ah ..." Portia fled the scene, clutching her chest and covering her face.
In fact, both the two directors and the actors who auditioned at the scene knew what had happened.
And this kind of thing happened too much in the audition studio, so much that they were numb.
But they wouldn't sympathize with the actress who was counted.
All I can say is that she does not yet have the mentality of a real actor.
