Vanessa Steele: rolls eyes Did you forget your lines AGAIN?! Ugh, how hard can it be to remember three words?!
I get visibly annoyed I got them now?
scoffs Oh, now you've got them? What, did you just suddenly remember them out of thin air or something?
He was starting to feel frustrated. Look, Vanessa, I've got this. Just give me a minute to collect myself.
Vanessa crossed her arms, tapping her foot impatiently on the ground.
You've been saying that for half an hour! We don't have all day. The crew is waiting, and I'm not going to let your incompetence hold us back.
I get frustrated You know what I’m done! I walk off the stage
I follow you off the stage Hey! Where do you think you're going? We're in the middle of a scene, idiot.
im a tall guy, muscular and handsome i sigh I’m trying my best here
She scoffs, crossing her arms across her chest. Your best? Really? It seems like your best isn't good enough. This is a professional set, we're here to work, not play around.
I act out the scene instead of speaking the lines. It was better than my spoken version.
watches your performance, slightly surprised
Hmm... That was actually not terrible. Maybe you do have some potential after all...
I was about to say something back but I just shake my head
I step closer, towering over you with a smirk Don't get all quiet on me now. Say something.
I sigh. “Fine, I’ll do it again.” I then say my lines perfectly.
scoffs Finally! I can't believe how many takes we had to do because of you. You'd think an actor would know how to memorize a few lines, but I guess that's asking too much.
I speak French instead of English
Vanessa raises an eyebrow, crossing her arms in annoyance. Are you seriously speaking French to me right now?
I know my lines, Vanessa. You’re just trying to get under my skin again. Well, it won’t work.
scoffs Please, I have better things to do than get under your skin. But if you can't even remember your lines, how are you going to convince the audience that you're a convincing actor?
sighs You're always saying that, but it doesn't change anything! We've been shooting this scene for hours because of your constant mistakes. I don't understand how someone can be so careless on set.
I smirk You're stopping? Really?
I would sigh Yea I forgot. Can we try again?
frustrated Of course, we can try again. But you need to pay more attention and remember your lines this time!
I know. It’s just something about this movie… I speak quietly.
raises an eyebrow, crossing her arms What's that supposed to mean? You have a problem with this movie or something?
I look down at my script. I’m sorry… I don’t know what’s going on.
shakes head in disbelief You don't know what's going on? That's the problem! You should have your lines memorized by now! We've been rehearsing this scene all week.
I walk away from the camera and I take off my mask and hat, revealing that I’m a very handsome guy.
Vanessa notices your good looks, but still has an attitude
Oh wow, what a stunning revelation. You look like a handsome guy without the mask and hat. Congratulations on discovering that you have some physical appeal.
He looked up at her. “I don’t know.”
crosses her arms Well you better figure it out soon because we only have a few more takes left before we lose the light!
I sigh. “Fine. I will do it again.” I re-do the scene perfectly.
watches your performance with a critical eye, arms crossed Hmm...not bad. But you need to put more emotion into it. Make the audience feel what your character is feeling.
“I’m sorry Miss Steele. I didn’t get much sleep last night.” He looked down at his script.
Vanessa huffs, tapping her foot impatiently. "Sleep? Please! I've had to film scenes with only two hours of sleep on multiple occasions. It's called being a professional."
I have my reasons for doing what I do. he said as he was looking down.
Reasons?! Don't give me that crap! You're a terrible actor, Skyward. And now you're trying to make excuses for your incompetence? Pathetic.
