The scene of the script reading for "Symphonic Lover's Dream".
The script for the first episode did not include Hayato Minato's appearance, so he just took this opportunity to observe everyone's acting skills.
"Poop poop, cat poop~" Megumi Noda (also known as Noda-mei) played by Ueno Juri relaxedly hummed a strange song: "Poop is so hard~"
No doubt, this is the content of the first episode of the show. In this scene, the heroine Noda Mei returned home humming this strange song, but she found the drunk hero Chiaki Shinichi at the door of the house.
The original work of "Symphonic Lover's Dream" is a girl's comic, which is mainly a love idol comedy centered on two different types of musical geniuses, the male and female protagonists.
In Minakami Hayato's impression, meeting a tall and handsome senior that everyone loved by chance on the road was basically a standard feature in idol dramas, but it was really rare for a heroine to appear singing such a song.
Not to mention the subsequent plot. After Chiaki Shinichi was picked up and brought home by Noda in a daze, he woke up the next day and suddenly found that the room he was in was like a garbage dump.
Yes, it is a love idol comedy adapted from a shojo manga, but the heroine is a girl who doesn’t like to clean and is messy. And Mizuna Hayato has no doubt about the professionalism of the Sakura Island crew. Presumably they will really make a messy room during the official filming.
In addition to the exaggerated character design, many comedy plots in this drama, such as scenes where the male protagonist often slaps the female protagonist on the piano or is knocked two or three meters away, are all appropriate exaggerations after the comic adaptation. .
Hayato Minakami, who starred in "Ultraman Nexus", didn't have any discomfort with this exaggeration, and even this kind of comedy performance reminded him of some nonsensical comedies in his previous life.
But it is easy to summarize, but difficult to actually get started.
After a simple script reading session, Mizuna Hayato thought that he would be able to do it with his previous life experience, but this was not the case.
"Mizumi-kun, the tone here is a little heavier, because it is a psychological activity of dubbing afterwards, so it can be appropriately exaggerated."
"Mizumi-kun, this is too exaggerated. Although it is a comic adaptation, this kind of tone can only appear in variety shows in real life. You are not Ultraman now!"
"Mizumi-kun..."
In his previous life, most of the crews that Hayato worked for were movie crews. The huge screen in the cinema can enlarge and enlarge every actor, and every pore is clearly visible. This also makes the actors' acting skills need to be more delicate and deep, slightly larger. Any movement will be magnified and cause drama.
But TV dramas are different. The TV screen is only a little bigger. Using movie acting skills to perform psychological activities will only make the audience think you have facial paralysis. Proper body language is the key to performance.
What's more, "Symphony of Lovers" is a comic-adaptation drama...
It's an exaggeration that doesn't make it look dramatic...
This is not a drama that you can get through just by shouting "Nexus!!!"
...
Because only three episodes need to be filmed in the early stage, there are only three episodes of scripts in this round-up meeting. Everyone except Minakami Hayato has been through many battles, so after he overcame his own problems, everyone around him The reading session ended quickly.
"I'm sorry, it's all because of me that I delayed a lot of time today." Mizuna Hayato stood up and apologized proactively.
"It's okay, it's okay." "Mizumi-kun is great!" Tamaki Hiroshi and other actors like Ueno Juri all understood that Minakami-kun was inexperienced, so they didn't have any complaints.
"Well, it doesn't matter." Takeuchi Hideki also said: "Although I couldn't touch the speed at the beginning, after I found the feeling, the subsequent growth was still obvious."
"Thank you, director." Mizuno Hayato said.
"Looking forward to your official shooting." Takeuchi Hideki patted Minakami Hayato's shoulder and left.
Afterwards, Tamaki Hiroshi and others also said goodbye and left one after another. However, Ueno Juri stayed behind, holding on to Mizunakami Hayato and saying:
"Mizumi-kun, are you free tonight? I have invited a friend to have dinner with me. She is a very beautiful girl!"
"Ah?" Hayato Minakami glanced at his watch in confusion and said apologetically: "Sorry, Ueno-san, I'm glad you invited me, but I still have a poster shooting job next. Sorry, sorry! Next time!" "
"Eh~" Ueno Juri probably belongs to the experiential group of actors. Even after the reading meeting, he sounded a bit like Noda-mei: "What a shame, my friend is also very curious about Minakami-kun!"
Or maybe Ueno Juri's nature is like this.
"I'm sorry, Ueno-san." Minato Hayato apologized with his hands clasped together.
"There's nothing we can do about it, we have to do it next time!" Ueno Juri said: "My friends are not so easy to make appointments with~ But if I have a chance, I will invite you again!"
"Okay, I'll do it next time!" Mizuna Hayato smiled.
In fact, Hayato Minakami had some doubts in his heart. Ueno Juri kept talking to her friend, which gave him the illusion of being on a blind date.
Could it be that one of her friends outside her circle came to her for help?
Thinking of this, Hayato suddenly felt a little happy to have to work tonight.
...
On the way to the magazine, Nao Fujiwara called the phone:
"Why, I heard that today's script reading will go well?"
"Fortunately, it's just that I didn't grasp the speed of my acting skills at the beginning. I'll just find the direction later." Hayato Minakami said bluntly.
"Is the director satisfied with the final effect?"
"Well, it seems that you are quite satisfied. Why do you ask?"
"No, I'll be relieved if you're satisfied." Nao Fujiwara said, "If you're not satisfied, I might have to wonder if I signed an actor who only has a face. Fortunately, you still have some talent."
"What does it mean to have some talent!" Although Fujiwara Nao sounded matter-of-fact, her words sounded like a mockery.
"It's just the talent for acting." Nao Fujiwara said: "In this case, I don't need to find another actor for the time being, and you don't have to be thrown into shooting magazines every day."
"..." Hayato Minakami suddenly didn't understand why Nao Fujiwara signed him in the first place.
Just because he's handsome?
"You can also save money as an acting teacher." Fujiwara Nao added.
"Are you calling here just to mock me?" Mizuna Hayato asked.
"Oh, no!" Fujiwara Nao seemed to have just remembered the purpose of making this call: "You come to Ginza, and I will take you to eat French cuisine."
"But now I..."
"I canceled it for you." Fujiwara Nao said: "You just have to keep filming the drama, and don't be unable to get into the mood like you did today. Just think of tonight as a celebration that you successfully passed the first reading meeting!"
What...this agent still cares about actors.
