Chapter 98 The first blog post

(I received a strong recommendation and will definitely be on the shelves next Friday! It will explode on the shelves!)

In the office on the set, a thick stack of information was piled up in front of Gale Levine. As the casting director of the crew of "Almost Fame", there is a lot of work to be handled when the audition for multiple supporting roles is approaching.

He took a copy of the actor's application information and looked at it in the column of the filmed videos. He saw that there were only two films that he had never even heard of, so he directly called X on it.

"Amy..." Gale Levin reminded the assistant director opposite him, "Actors who do not meet the qualifications will be eliminated and no audition invitations are required."

The female assistant director put down her glasses and said, "Okay, I understand."

Gail Lair continued to work hard, and the actors who could send here were basically out of reach. The actors who were truly connected to the network had already received an audition invitation.

"Almost Fame" production budget is as high as 60 million US dollars. One of DreamWorks' key films this year, in order to raise enough funds and even push it from last year to the present, the director and producer attach great importance to casting. In terms of selecting actors, in addition to the male lead with special circumstances, let alone other main characters, even the supporting roles such as band players, those young actors who have only played a few films are not considered.

"Mr. Levine."

Suddenly, the voice of assistant director Amy Lynn came from the opposite side, "Look at the information about this actor."

She is just an assistant director. When she encounters something that is not accurate, she will have to make the decision as the casting director Gail Levine.

"What's wrong?" Gale Levine raised his head from behind a pile of information.

Amy Lynn handed over a document, "This actor who is recruiting Russell Hammond has only appeared in two films, one MV and one TV series..."

Gale Levine did not receive information and interrupted Amy Lynn, "The qualifications are a little bit short of it, eliminate..."

"Listen to me." Amy Lynn was interrupted before he could even say the second half of the words, and he quickly said, "The movies he starred in are "The Soul-Easing Girl" and "Gladiator". He played the leading role in Britney Spears' MV, and also played Ronald Spears in "Brothers"..."

"Ah?" Gale Levine immediately took the information handed over by Amy Lynn and opened it and looked, "The Brothers Company produced by Hanks and Spielberg, is nothing wrong!"

He murmured, "Matthew Horner, I remember reading this name in which newspaper."

Amy Lynn reminded at this time, "There are copies of the last few pages of the information."

Gale Levine has seen the actor's resume, glanced at the attached photos, and flipped into the copy at the back. The first thing she saw was a copy of a page of Entertainment Weekly, which was a photo of Matthew Horner walking on the red carpet and wearing a military uniform, and there are also text introductions below, such as he has starred in well-known films such as "The Soul-Evering Girl", "Gladiator" and "Brothers", and has also played with Angelina Jolie, Winona Ryder and Russell Clow, etc.

This should not be fake. There is an issue number for "Entertainment Weekly" on the copy page. You will know after finding this issue.

There are also copies at the back, which are photos of Matthew Horner and Ridley Scott standing on the set, pictures of Britney Spears shooting MVs on the beach, and how David Frankel was talking about the show in "Brothers".

These are certainly not fake!

Gail Levine closed the information and there was no need to watch it anymore. If such actors did not send an audition invitation, there would be few qualified actor information on this table.

He picked up the pen, tick it on it, and said to Amy Lynn, "When you encounter this again, you can pass it directly."

The office soon returned to peace.

Matthew was imitating Kevin Spacey's performance in "American Beauty" in front of the mirror, and received a notification call from Helen Hermann, and received an audition invitation for "Almost Fame" and had the minimum qualification to enter.

Hang off Helen Hermann's phone, he finished the exercise, turned off the video recorder and TV, came to the computer I just bought, and logged into the blog I registered some time ago after turning on it.

Although the fourteen-inch spherical display and internet speed are a bit crazy, they are within the range that Matthew can tolerate, and there cannot be too high requirements in this era.

He first decorated his blog page and logged in to MSN. Since he bought the computer for a few days, the contacts on MSN were very limited. To be precise, there were only four, all of them who knew in reality, Helen Hermann, Ilena Boyal, Michael Fassbender and James McAvoy.

As for Britney, she is busy now. Matthew took a flight to Pittsburgh a few days ago and saw her. The two of them had only been together for more than an hour, and the popular singers had no time to play on the computer.

After scanning MSN, seeing that there was no news, Matthew continued to manage the blog and was about to write a blog post.

After returning from the crew of "Brothers", he would write something from time to time to exercise his English writing skills.

However, saying and writing are all different things. Matthew typed a line of words and then deleted them. After repeating them several times, he couldn't help but feel a little annoyed.

He simply stood up, drank a glass of water, and waited until he calmed down before he sat back in front of the computer.

"It's better to write something simple..." Matthew muttered.

Just now, he was preparing to write something about his previous experiences on the crew, but now it seems that he is completely beyond his writing ability.

After thinking for a while, Matthew typing on the keyboard.

"What should I write for the first blog post? Well... I'm an actor, the kind who is not famous, but I just received an audition notice to produce a big project worth $60 million. Although the audition was a small supporting role, I was also very happy."

After pausing for a while, he typed the letters again: "Come on! I will definitely pass the audition!"

Then, he posted the blog post.

Unfortunately, no one followed the blog. Matthew went to several portals and went back to the news. The number of views on the blog post was still zero.

In that era when social networks were rampant, a star's meager could attract all kinds of responses. He had played these things before, and also paid attention to the meagerity of several stars and gossip entertainment studios.

This gossip scandal of big-name stars on both sides of the Pacific has accompanied him through countless lonely and unbearable nights. Like some romantic action movies, it is a rare benefit for singles.

MSN showed news, and Matthew woke up from memories of the past and found that it was a message sent by Ilena Poyal.

"Big star, is there any insider news?"

Matthew thought for a while and replied, "A A-list just opened a blog, does it count?"

"Do you have a blog?" wrote Elena Poyal over there, "send the website."

Matthew copied the website and sent it to Ilena Poyal.

There was no information there for the time being. Matthew continued to browse the web. After about two minutes, Ilena Poyal sent another news.

"Which crew are you going to audition?"

"Dreamworks' "Almost Fame"" Matthew thought for a while and wrote, "What? Are you going to help me?"

He was just talking casually, but he didn't expect Elena Poyal to reply, "I can help you make a news promotion. I met Helen Herman last week, and she provided me with a very valuable news, just to give her a reward."

Of course Matthew would not refuse such a thing, "Yes. Can your editor pass?"

"Have you been on Entertainment Weekly recently?" She is very informed, "The Gladiator is also being screened, so there shouldn't be a big problem."

"Then I'll wait for your good news."

Matthew talked to Ilena Poyal for a few more words, then found a professional actor website and started reading it.

After studying at the Los Angeles Performing Arts School, his acting skills have indeed improved, but he has no foundation, has a relatively low starting point, and his talent is not outstanding. At best, it is just a matter of making do.

It's okay to play Ronald Spears with almost a look like a bisexual with complex faces, which is more difficult.

Although he felt it was difficult, he never thought of retreating. In a fiercely competitive circle like Hollywood, opportunities are very important, but ability is the key to seizing opportunities.

He is not a genius, his abilities are not born and need to be tempered.

During this year, he has watched too much about the actors, but he can use too little.

The next day, Matthew went to buy a copy of the "American News" which sounded magnificent, but in fact it was an entertainment gossip newspaper. He wanted to see if Elena Boyal really wrote a news report about him.

After returning home and searching back and forth, Matthew discovered a report that was not much larger than tofu cubes in a corner of the fourth edition. The signature of the report was Ilena Boyal.

"Britney Spears' rumored boyfriend, Matthew Horner, who starred in heavyweight films such as "Gladiator", has recently revealed new news. According to insiders, he is preparing to participate in the shooting of DreamWorks' $60 million production "Almost Famous"..."

Although there are very few reports, Matthew is satisfied. This is always a good thing, right?

"U.S. News" is an entertainment gossip newspaper with a relatively large circulation in the western region, and its audience range is not small.

Matthew is now asking for attention and never misses any opportunity to enter the media. Helen Hermann submitted it to the crew of "Almost Fame", and there was a report on him by Entertainment Weekly. According to her, media attention is also a kind of qualification.

Time flies quickly. On the day when the crew notified the interview, Matthew, accompanied by Helen Hermann, came to the studio where the crew of "Almost Fame" is located.
