Chapter 36 The Director's Invitation

"how about this?"

In the audition room, an actor had just finished the audition and left, and someone from Jive Records leaned into Britney's ear and asked, "Is it alright?"

"Not good." Britney Spears shook her head directly, "Too thin, not strong enough."

Someone from Jive Records whispered in the ear of the MV director, and MV director Martin Jackson didn't hesitate to place a red cross on the actor's profile.

The opinions of Britney Spears and Jive Records, as director Martin Jackson needs to be respected, he has a certain say in various matters such as casting, but the order should be ranked after the two.

But Martin - Jackson thinks that the two will not express too many decisive opinions, after all, he is a professional.

"Let the next one come in."

Martin Jackson told the assistant, who quickly walked in with Michael Sheehan.

Britney Spears, seeing Michael Sheehan, whispered to the guys at Jive Records, "This looks good."

In the lounge not far from the audition room, Matthew saw another person going away in high spirits and came back dejected. He couldn't help but look away and looked aside. Amanda was sitting in a chair and playing with her cell phone bored.

Helen Herman brought them here and left, according to Amanda, who went to meet a Jive record executive.

The three people who completed the audition were in a bad mood when they came back. Matthew felt a little bit of a drum in his heart. He was very curious about the audition room, but he couldn't go in to see it. He asked the first and second people who were brushed down, But the two remained silent, not mentioning the situation in the audition room at all.

Matthew lowered his voice and said to Amanda, "We are old friends. This audition, do you have any news to share that you know I don't?"

He had already made out that Amanda was Helen Herman's cousin.

"It doesn't seem like it." Amanda thought for a while, then said, "Oh, yes. I heard Helen say that Britney Spears has a lot of say in her music video hero."

Matthew nodded slightly, thinking about it in his heart.

Not too long later, Michael Sheehan returned to the lounge. Unlike the previous three, his face was full of excitement. Matthew didn't need to ask to know that this guy must have passed the first audition this time.

Then someone shouted, "Matthew Horner!"

"coming!"

Matthew responded and followed the man quickly into the audition room.

This is the first audition similar to audition, no make-up, no change of clothes.

As soon as he entered the audition room, Matthew quickly patrolled the opposite side without a trace. A camera was facing him, a photographer with glasses was sitting behind him, and then a few chairs were placed on the left, and a row of people sat Above, the most striking one is Britney Spears with long blond brown hair.

The others, Matthew did not know, guessed that they might be the director or producer of the MV, managers of the record company Britney Spears worked for, and representatives of the Screen Actors Guild.

Most of the actors who came here from the angel agency are members of the Actors Guild. According to the relevant regulations, there will definitely be people from the Actors Union who will participate in the audition.

"Are you Matthew Horner?" asked a good-looking man in his thirties. "Have you played roles on 'Gladiator' and 'Gladiator'?"

Matthew didn't look at the camera, and replied calmly, "Yes."

Martin Jackson did not mean to doubt. The information provided by the angel agent in his hand contained a promotional poster for "Gladiator" recently released by Universal Pictures.

"Two laps back and forth," he said again.

Matthew walked around within the range of the camera lens.

Martin Jackson looked at Matthew intently,

I feel that his facial contours are clear, his facial features are three-dimensional and straight, his body is tall and strong, and his whole person is full of a masculine beauty that belongs only to men.

Then, his eyes moved down from his tough face, first fell on the thick and powerful chest, nodded slightly at the bulging chest muscles, and when Matthew turned around and walked back, he looked at the slender legs and firm butt...

Without the actor undressing, Martin Jackson could have imagined that the muscles on this man must be a sculptural beauty.

He kept nodding. This actor, Matthew Horner, looked really good, even better than the one who just passed the audition.

"Be sure to get this into the second audition list." Martin Jackson jumped out of this idea unconsciously, "This audition is eliminated, and there is no chance."

"This is the person recommended by the Angels' agent." The person from Jive Records said to Britney Spears in a low voice, "What do you think?"

Britney Spears nodded slightly, "Very good, select him."

"Okay." Martin Jackson called to stop Matthew, "Okay, you go out first."

Martin Jackson was fine, Britney Spears and the record company saw fit, enough for this first audition.

Seeing that it was over after two laps, Matthew felt a bit baffled. He felt that this first audition was just to see the image and not be on camera.

He just walked out of the audition room, and before he returned to the rest area, a staff member came to inform him that he passed the first audition, and five days later, he came to the crew to participate in the audition with makeup.

"Passed." Matthew didn't know that he and the poster were one of Helen Herman's stepping stones.

Passing the audition, of course, is something to be happy about. Matthew returned to the lounge, and Amanda immediately cast an inquiring look. He made an OK gesture, went to the water dispenser to pick up two glasses of water, and held it over. Gave Amanda a drink, took a sip of it and sat down on the chair.

"Very well?" Amanda asked.

Matthew nodded. "Of course. They all think I'm a good actor."

Amanda rolled her eyes and ran on purposely, "I wish you success, good actor!"

"You also passed the audition?" Michael Sheehan leaned over at this time.

Matthew put down the water glass, "Yeah, it just feels inexplicable."

"We can shoot together again!" Michael Sheehan looked very happy, "I just asked, as long as anyone who passes the first audition can participate in the MV shooting, but there is only one protagonist, and everyone else plays the role. background."

A thought flashed in his mind, this time he must get the protagonist!

Matthew sighed, "I don't know who the lucky one will be."

Michael Sheehan said half-truth, "I hope it's one of us."

He didn't say anything about asking Matthew to help this time. After last time, he could see that Matthew would not take into account the so-called friendship between the two people in this matter.

Likewise, he doesn't care!

Seeing that Matthew turned his head and chatted with Amanda again, Michael Sheehan sat down quietly, this time he said everything he wanted to get the actor!

It is said that the male lead will play a couple with Britney Spears in the MV, which is sure to attract a lot of attention.

Michael Sheehan unconsciously had more fantasies in his head. It would be even better if he could do a fake show with Britney Spears. In the future, he would save ten or even twenty years of struggle...

How can I get this actor? Michael Sheehan has been in the business for three years, and of course he knows it won't be easy.

Especially... His eyes fell on Matthew again. This guy seems to have a good relationship with Helen Herman. If Helen Herman mainly recommends Matthew, his chances of getting the role are probably a little small.

There is no need for the brokerage company, but what about the MV crew? He immediately thought of the person who gave orders in the audition room, guessing that it was either the director or the producer. If he could get through with him...

Matthew has been chatting with Amanda, continuing to nurture an already good relationship.

As for Michael Sheehan, who was silent next to him, he could guess what this guy was thinking without even looking at it. In fact, this was what he thought, and any young actor would not want to miss such an opportunity.

He has been thinking in his head how to get Britney Spears to notice him and have some good feelings.

According to Amanda, as long as Britney Spears approves, he can basically get the role.

In the middle, Helen Herman came once, told Amanda that she had left beforehand, and left.

After the audition, everyone did not have the treatment they had when they came, so they could only find a way to go back.

Matthew bid farewell to Amanda and walked out of the set alone, not far away, Michael Sheehan caught up from behind.

"Hi, Matthew!" he asked. "Are you still going to Hollywood Boulevard?"

"Yeah." Matthew stopped.

"Let's go together." Michael Sheehan suggested, "I'll go to Hollywood Boulevard too."

Matthew did not refuse, walked out of the set with Michael Sheehan, called a taxi, and stood on the side of the road waiting patiently for the taxi to come.

"Has your acting class started?" Michael Sheehan followed Matthew, just to see if he would have another way.

"The class has started." Matthew said casually, "I feel pretty good, and it helps me a lot."

He heard the phone ringing, thought it was a taxi, took it out and pressed the answer button, "We're right in front of the Disney studio, I'm wearing a..."

Before he could finish, he was interrupted by a voice from the receiver. "Are you Matthew Horner?"

"Yeah." Matthew felt the voice a little familiar.

The second-hand mobile phone leaked sound, and Michael Sheehan next to him also heard it, and immediately pricked up his ears.

"I'm Martin Jackson, the director you just auditioned for."

Hearing what the other party said, Matthew remembered, isn't this the voice of the person who gave the order in the audition room.

Matthew quickly asked politely, "Are you okay?"

"That's it, about the audition, I need to talk to you tonight..."

The man quickly reported an address, and Matthew immediately remembered it in his mind, "Okay, I'll be there on time at eight o'clock."

Michael Sheehan also heard the address, and his face turned black instantly. Do you want to watch Matthew Horner get the actor?
