"Hey, what the hell am I doing? Now is not the time to think about this. I still have my own things to think about!" Sean suddenly knocked his head, returning his thoughts to the right track.

What should he do now? Withdraw? Although he did not see Frederick's expression, he guessed that he would not be too happy. His agent needed to make money too. However, Sean was also unwilling to quit like this. Sean did not like to be a deserter. Although he became a extra to solve the current predicament and then save up some money and time to plan for the future, he did quite well, right?

But as he persisted, there were some things that must be done as well as possible once he decided on it. The job as the extra was great, and after observing on set for this period of time, he believed that if there was a chance. His performance would definitely not be worse than that of an actor, so why should he quit?

"Why don't we wait a little longer?" Sean thought as he scratched Duke's chin. Frederick might not have been wrong, but it was very likely that he was exaggerating. Honestly, to do anything for an opportunity was too...

He had a good idea, but reality soon taught him a lesson.

"What a pity, if you can get this role, you might be able to become famous with one shot. Do you know, many stars are famous as teen stars..." As usual, during the free time of filming, Keith chattered about everything he knew about Holliewood.

If it was any other time, Sean would talk to him, but at this moment, he really was not in the mood.

It had been four days since the last audition. He had already received the news from his agent. The film crew of Target Pictures for "Rose to Fame" had chosen Landy Caitel as the male lead. Frederick said that David Dawlish, who was in charge of selecting the lead, had privately expressed his regret to him. Regarding this, Sean declined to comment. However... Landy Caitel should have gone to that party.

Although he had already expected this, Sean still felt a little uncomfortable after hearing this news.

"It doesn't matter. There are still chances," Sean said as if he was answering Keith, but it also seemed for himself.

"Don't say it so easily, Sean," Keith sighed. Then, he thought of something and complained, "Alright, you have a good agent. Of course, you don't have to worry about it. But mine... If only I could participate in the audition for" Rose to Fame." I would definitely be able to get a role."

"Even if you have to blow for the producer?" Sean could not help but ask.

"As long as I can get a significant role, it's no big deal to blow a horn." Keith didn't care.

Sean was stunned at first and then frowned, but before he could say anything, a man in his thirties, who was almost five feet eight inches and was one of the director's assistants, came to them. "Hey, the director wants you guys to go over."

"The director wants us to go over?" Although he was a little surprised and confused, Sean still walked over to the camera with Keith, who seemed very excited.

"Sean? Keith? Very well, let me take a look... Give me a spin. You go first, Sean." The director did not say anything more and immediately commanded them.

Sean followed his instructions and made a few more poses. Then, Keith did the same thing. The director then discussed with the people next to him in a low voice.

Not long after, just a few minutes, after Keith was so excited that he could barely control himself, they finally finished discussing.

"Well, it's you, Sean. We need a tall and straight restaurant waiter at the last minute. He has two lines with the male lead. I think you are very suitable. Would there a problem?" The director spoke very directly.

"Well... no, sir." Sean was stunned for a moment, then immediately agreed.

"Mr. Director, what about me?" Keith asked hastily.

"I'm sorry, Keith. I'll consider you when there's a chance next time." The director dismissed him with a single sentence.

Keith still wanted to plead, but the director had already called for the makeup artist and the stylist to come over and prep Sean for the look he needed. They did not delay at all, so much so that Sean could only give him an apologetic look.

The plot was not complicated. The couple, one of the main characters, ate in the restaurant. The husband, who liked to tell corny jokes, made a mess. The director and producer probably felt that if there was a waiter who had a little tit-for-tat with him, it might create a better comedy effect, so they added such a paragraph.

Because it was an impromptu idea, the role did not have many scenes, so they randomly chose one among the temporary actors. Sean was fortunate to be chosen.

This book was originally published on Royal Road. Check it out there for the real experience.

There were a total of two main lines. After denying the names of all kinds of strange dishes that the husband had reported, he would propose an even more inexplicable combination of dishes. After her husband expressed his doubts, he teased her a little.

This was not a difficult task for Sean. He was a fixed extra in this comedy called "Family Modification." He understood the personalities of the main characters. Moreover, this role itself was not difficult.

"How about fried beef and grilled lobster, butter chicken soup, cheese mushroom salad, and take away some pepper and ice cream?" He held the menu while standing straight, but his chin was high, and his tone was rhythmic and rapid, fully displaying the little impatience that the waiter hid in his heart.

He tilted his head slightly, squinted his eyes, and smirked. Combined with the name of the dishes that were randomly reported, it was comical that the director and screenwriter praised him after the end.

"Congratulations." When it was time to end the work, Keith said this. He was quite upset, and his expression was not very good.

"Don't be discouraged, Keith. There will definitely be a chance." Sean could only comfort him in this way.

However, the director walked over at that time and said, "Hey, Sean, we are going to add some scenes in the restaurant. You performed well, so this role is temporarily reserved for you. You'd better prepare for it and come to the set early tomorrow."

Sean was again stunned and agreed, "No problem, sir."

If the character with lines made him a little happy, then he was really excited right now. What did Frederick say? He didn't need those tricks and could still fight for the opportunity!

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but turn to look at Keith. Different from what he had imagined, Keith had a calm expression.

"Congratulations, Sean." The other party said.

"Thank you, Keith. This is a pleasant surprise." Sean could not help but laugh and then patted his arm. "You will definitely have a chance. Keith, I believe this. You have put in so much effort. You will definitely gain something."

After pausing for a moment, he felt that his words were a little too empty, so he quickly added, "Although this sounds a bit arrogant, if there are still characters with lines, I will definitely recommend you to the producer."

"There's no need to go through so much trouble. As long as you can't perform, I can take over." Keith said jokingly.

Sean laughed, not taking it to heart at all.

"Alright, works done today. How about we have a drink together tonight?" Keith added.

"You should know..." Sean wanted to remind him that he was not yet 18 years old and could not drink in public.

"Come on, Sean. This is not a difficult task. You finally got a role. Shouldn't you celebrate? Come on, don't be so fussy." Keith waved his hand nonchalantly.

"Alright." Sean thought for a moment and finally agreed, "How about we go after we finish our work tonight?"

"You still want to go to the film studio of "Killer in High School?" You already have a role, buddy." Keith looked a little surprised. "They have so many extras. They won't care if we go or not."

"I don't want to be blamed by the crew over there, even if the possibility is very slight," Sean laughed, "Do you remember what I told you? We have to do everything we can to the fullest."

One must take a step at a time when taking action. Sean had always insisted on this, not to mention that he had only gotten a small role. Therefore, even if he took a small step, he would not get carried away and do what he still had to do.

Of course, the overtime pay was also one of the reasons. As mentioned before, the salary for overtime was 1.5 times the usual salary. Although he had solved the problem of living, he did not have much savings. As a Chinese in his previous life, Sean needed to have some savings at all times. This point of view was basically engraved in the depths of his soul, so he would occasionally take time to go to some film crew to act as a extra.

The TV series was relatively stable, especially in 1998. All the major TV stations were still focused on scenes. All kinds of scenes could be built in the studio, so there would usually be no overtime. Unless there was a special situation, they usually went to and from work punctually. It was also because of this that extras were basically long-term. All they had to do was change clothes or put on different makeup in different scenes, which was enough.

On the other hand, movies were a one-time trade, and there were times when they had to go out for certain scenes. So, there were more overtime situations, especially the movies that needed to be made up, and "Killer in High School" belonged to the last category.

The movie had been completed four months ago, but in the late stage of production, the director, Robaire Rodrigo, thought that something was wrong. After communicating with the producer, he gathered some actors to make up for some scenes. But the problem was that the schedule of the movie had been arranged for the end of this year. It was very rushed, so he worked overtime to shoot.

This movie was a sci-fi film. The gist of it was that aliens had invaded a small town, and the school teachers were the first to suffer, but they were eventually wiped out by a group of high school students with drugs.

It sounded a little ridiculous, but Antasian's liked this type of movie. As long as the director could control the plot and the actors could perform well, there was no need to worry about ticket sales.

Sean had watched many movies in his previous life. In his previous life, it was to relieve boredom, and in this life... It was also to relieve boredom. Well, watching a movie was one of Antasian's important entertainment activities, and it was also a good place for dating. It was a pity that he had forgotten all the movies he had seen in his previous life. It was fascinating to find them in his memories. For example, last year's phenomenal "Gitanic." In addition, he had never learned screenwriting in his previous life. Otherwise, writing a few scripts to earn money would be good.

The content of the reshoot was basically a scene after the aliens controlled the female lead. Then, the male lead chased after the aliens and wanted to capture them. At the same time, there was a group of Antasey football players helping him. The scene was straightforward. It was decorated in the studio as nighttime, and then a few school buses were parked. The extra just had to wear a jersey and run back and forth. It was effortless.
