Chapter 61
Serena gave Arielle an evil look and said coldly, “Don’t waste time. Let’s start shooting!”
So what if she is pretty? Most importantly, she has to be natural and comfortable in front of a camera. Otherwise, she is just going to be a blockhead.
There were countless opportunities for Serena to drag Arielle’s time and make her lose money.
The outdoor shooting location was held at Themis Castle. It was an old ancient castle. It costed ten thousand per minute. She wanted Arielle to go bankrupt!
Ten thousand was an astronomical figure, especially for a girl who grew up in the countryside.
Not long after, Serena put a cold smile on her face and gloated over Arielle.
The photographer was stunned for few seconds when he saw Arielle. He walked over to communicate with Arielle about the shooting content.
“We will take some photos first before filming the video. The first scene is going to be at the entrance of the coffee shop. We will need you to push the door open, then look back and smile. That’s all for the first scene.”
“Sure.” Arielle smiled slightly. She followed behind the production crew and headed out.
Soir Coffee had a forest theme interior design. The storefront and signboard were all made out of antique elm wood. The shop was full of green plants, and vines were hanging on the door.
From afar, it looked like a tree hollow in an anime
instead of a coffee shop.
“Alright, Ms. Sannie. Let’s get started. You push the door, then turn around and smile at me.”
Arielle nodded solemnly. After that, she reached out to push the door…
Serena smiled mockingly beside the photographer. She was waiting for Arielle to make a mistake.
Meanwhile…
Arielle pushed the door slightly with one hand and turned around to look at the photographer with a lovely smile.
Right at that moment, a breeze swept across and blew through Arielle’s hair. A wisp of hair rested on her lips and covered half of her eyes.
Click! With the camera shutter sound, a freezeframe shot was captured.
As soon as Serena heard the shutter sound, she immediately leaned over and asked the photographer without even looking at the photo. “How was it? Is it bad?”
The photographer froze when he looked at the camera. He was at loss for words for a moment.
Serena thought the photographer was shocked to see Arielle’s terrible expression and posture. Immediately, she reprimanded her, “What are you doing? It looks so unnatural. Stop being phony! Start over again!”
However, just as Serena finished speaking, the photographer regained his composure and hurriedly waved his hands. “No. There’s no need to retake. That was a good shot! Your movement and facial expression looked so natural. We will
use this one!”
Serena was dumbfounded at that moment. “What are you talking…”
The photographer excitedly handed her the camera. Serena’s brows knitted and looked at the screen. She saw a lady smiling brighter than the sun, turning around and stared at the camera, as if she was inviting her friends over to have a cup of coffee.
That wind put her hair into disarray at the perfect timing. She looked so gorgeous despite the messy hair. The picture gave a great sense of motion.
Serena tightened the grip as she held on to the camera.
H-How could this be? Is this an accident? The photographer captured the moment by chance.
So, the picture is perfect?
Serena would definitely never admit that Arielle was actually competent in front of the camera.
She then took a deep breath. Serena wanted to say something but she was completely speechless. In the end, she angrily returned the camera and said coldly, “That was barely qualified. Carry on with the shooting!”
Serena gritted her teeth in anger.
She didn’t believe that luck was on Arielle’s side all the time. She could be really lucky for the first time but it didn’t mean things would go perfectly smooth for her every single time.
It was impossible for a person who had no experience in filming to do it perfectly without making any mistake.
The last short video clip was supposed to be shot in the rain. Arielle would be acting as a waitress of Soir Coffee. She had to open the door and put up an umbrella for her customer who was walking towards the coffee shop in the rain.
Chapter 61
The photographer explained to Arielle, “This video clip is to reflect the customer service quality of Soir Coffee. Therefore, when you see a customer walking in the rain, you have to quickly run towards them.”
The content was not complicated the difficult part was the emotional expression
She had to walk a fine line between being in a rush and being exaggerated.
