Chapter 376 An Audition At The Hotel
The makeup artist who helped her to make up quickly said, "It is given by Evelyn. Almost everyone in the crew has it, but it will be in a different pattern. You see, mine is a Notre-Dame."
As she said this, she even took out the accessories that had been hung with her keys specially to show Susan.
A look of disdain flashed across Susan's eyes, and she sneered, "Only you guys see this kind of thing as a treasure. I thought it was something good. Key chain? We all lock our doors with fingerprints now, okay? Only the country bumpkin would use keys to unlock doors!"
The makeup artist was speechless.
The atmosphere in the whole dressing room suddenly fell into embarrassment.
Yunne had already put on her makeup. She got up and walked out of the room coldly.
Everyone couldn't help looking at each other, but no one dared to say anything.
Just then, Evelyn came in.
"I'm sorry, Maney. I just ruined my eye makeup. Can you help me to fix it?"
Due to the limited manpower, everyone, except for the main actress, Yunne, shared a makeup artist.
Maney not only did make up for Evelyn, she also did it for Susan.
When Maney heard Evelyn's voice, she quickly said, "Oh, okay, take a seat first. I'll fix it for you right away."
"All right."
However, as soon as she sat down, she heard the harsh voice of Susan.
"Maney, I thought you're doing make-up specially for me? Why are you doing it for her?"
Maney was embarrassed to say, "I'm sorry, Susan. There are only five makeup artists in the film set, but there are more than a dozen people who need makeup at the same time. So, except for Yunne, no one has a personal make-up artist."
Upon hearing that, Susan's eyes widened as if she had heard something unbelievable.
"What did you say? No one has a personal make-up artist?"
Maney nodded embarrassedly.
"Then why didn't I see you doing the make-up for them before?"
"That's because they're all here early, and you're the only one who's here late. When you arrived, they had already done their make-up, so..."
Hearing this, the expression on Susan's face suddenly changed.
As it was a period drama, the costume would be a little more complicated compared to a contemporary drama. So more effort is required.
The actresses would have to get up very early to get their make-up done. After all, it would take at least an hour for them to do their hair and get dressed in their costumes.
Besides, Director Pablo only paid attention to acting skills regardless of the actor or actress background. All of the films directed by him were box-office hits.
Therefore, Susan spent a lot of effort to persuade him. Not only did she promise that she would secure sponsors for the filming, she also promised him that she would not be a big head. That was the reason why she was offered a role in the series.
If Pablo knew that she arrived late every day, he would definitely have a problem with her.
Susan's face fell.
Seeing this, Evelyn smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. Maney, you can do her make-up first. I will wait at the side."
When Maney heard this, she could only helplessly say, "All right."
After finishing her words, she smiled at Susan in a friendly way.
Susan thought that she was afraid of her, so she said with a snort, "At least you know what's good for you."
Then, she turned around and asked Maney to help her put on makeup.
However, when everyone saw what was going on in the dressing room, they couldn't help but show a look of disdain secretly.
"Tsk, she is just a D-list celebrity who only got the role because she is bringing the sponsors for the filming. How dare she put on airs?"
The fact was, in this series, Evelyn played a supporting character, second only to the leading actress. Her role was very important. Except for the female lead, she was also the highlight of this series.
If this drama got popular, then Evelyn could have the chance to be an A-lister. By that time, she would have to be bullied by Susan anymore.
Besides, Evelyn took part in a few quality productions before, and she had so many fans. Susan, on the other hand, had gotten a few roles because of her rich family background. What was there to be proud of?
Although everyone was very dissatisfied with Susan's attitude in their hearts, they did not show it on their faces and still respectfully helped her make up.
But Evelyn had left a more favorable impression in their hearts.
The scene in the morning was a bitter one being shot in the rain.
Evelyn's acting skills were well trained after cooperating with a few famous directors such as Teddy and Freddie in her last few works.
As a result, her acting skills were extraordinary during the shooting, and Susan, who was starring opposite her, was no match to Evelyn.
After the show, the director screamed, "Cut"!
Pablo frowned and said to Susan, "You should restrain your expression a little more at this part. See, you still don't know that she's your enemy yet, but you're already gritting your teeth. It's not in line with the current mood that you are supposed to portray. Do it again."
Hearing this, the expression on Susan's face turned cold, but she did not say anything.
After that, they took another four takes before Susan barely passed the test.
Soon, it was noon.
Evelyn only had a scene in the morning today. She didn't have any in the afternoon, so she could take a break temporarily in the afternoon.
Just then, her cell phone rang.
It was her manager, Marissa who called her.
Evelyn signed a deal with Starlight, but Clarissa was no longer in charge of it. She handed them all over to Millie.
And Millie now had the control of the company's affairs, so there was no time for her to work under Evelyn. So now everyone was assigned to different managers.
And her manager was a newbie, whose name was Marissa.
Evelyn picked up at once and said with a smile, "Marissa, what can I do for you?"
On the other side, Marissa's voice sounded nonchalant, as usual. "Are you free this afternoon? Let's go for an audition."
Confused for a moment, Evelyn agreed without thinking. "Yes, but I am now filming a series directed by Pablo. I don't want to be on two film sets at one time. When will the filming begin?"
"I'm not sure yet. You can have a try first. If you pass the audition, we can talk about the schedule later."
Hearing this, Evelyn did not refuse and agreed.
After hanging up the phone, Marissa quickly sent her the address of the audition.
When Evelyn saw that it was actually a hotel, she couldn't help but frown slightly.
However, since it was Marissa who asked her to go, then it should be no problem. As she thought, Evelyn changed her clothes, said goodbye to Pablo before leaving the film set.
Marissa gave her an address of a luxury hotel.
When they arrived at the hotel, Evelyn found the room and rang the doorbell.
Soon, a man's voice came from inside.
"Come in!"
She pushed the door in and found a fat middle-aged man sitting inside. Next to him stood a photographer and two girls who were about the same age as her. They probably came here for the audition too.
Evelyn secretly let out a sigh of relief.
In fact, when she first found out that the audition location was in a hotel, she was a little hesitant.
After all, it was not Evelyn's first day in the entertainment industry, so she had more or less heard the shady things going on here. But now, as soon as she saw that there was a director, camera man, and other actresses who came for the audition in the room, she thought that there should not be any problem.
