Kazir went into the studio. He saw the crew members working and he was greeted with good morning, Kazir returned the greeting.
"Sir, Brianna is in the trailer." Erica reminded him.
"Thanks."
Even though the studio was indoor, the crew still prepared trailers for the cast to use. These actors and actresses needed privacy after all... It didn't help that celebrities were arrogant and loved to have their own space. Well, they were the faces of Hollywood so they have the reason to act arrogant.
Sometimes, trailers were used to do drugs, have sex, and do makeup/change clothes... These three things were the normal stuff happening in trailers.
God knows how many celebrities used their private trailers to have sex.
Kazir went to one of the trailers, this trailer was for female extras. Female extras/background characters usually only have one trailer to use and they have to the space one after another whenever they have to change clothes.
"Brianna? Are you there?"
Kazir knocked on the door, asking for permission to enter.
"The door's open. You can go in."
Hearing the approval, Kazir opened the door and found Brianna sitting in front of a mirror.
"Hi Brianna, we haven't met for quite a while."
"Good morning, Director Grey."
Kazir studied the woman. Overall, Brianna seemed fine. However, he felt something odd about her gaze... Kazir felt like the woman was lifeless because her eyes didn't have life. Like a serial killer who didn't show sympathy for her victims.
Kazir realized that if Brianna successfully got the role in Monster, she might drown in the character and completely lose herself.
Thankfully, Brianna didn't get the role.
"Brianna, Salvatore is worried about you so he wants me to talk to you."
"Don't worry director, I'm fine."
'Yeah, you look fine...'
This was not the Brianna who participated in Wanted. This was also not the Brianna who starred in Runaway Bride. The person in front of Kazir was a different Brianna Evans.
'She is really talented. A chameleon who can easily change the color of her skin.'
Kazir admitted that the woman was a great actress. Her acting could attract every director in the industry.
"Brianna, do you want to do a cameo in my movie? Don't worry it's just a short scene and you don't have to make a line at all."
"I want to. Salvatore stopped me from participating in any film lately."
When she heard that she would have a chance to act in front of a camera, Brianna became excited.
"That's great to hear. But I have to tell you that your role is only a vase, a background character."
"That's fine with me. You don't even have to pay me at all."
The woman easily agreed. Usually, she had an agent who would negotiate for her salary, sometimes it was Salvatore, and sometimes a different agent.
"Okay. Now, let's get to the job. Here's the background information of your character."
Kazir gave Brianna a thin document, listing all the information about her role. This made Brianna a bit surprised. She didn't expect that she would have to read a background profile for this cameo.
For the record, Brianna was now in her late 30s and she had worked in the acting industry since college. She was a theater stage actress from Australia, and she also had her fair share of experience working in movies... Although her roles were usually vases.
So she didn't expect that this background character would actually have her own story.
"I know that you're an actress who loves dividing into your character's story so I prepared. Well then, see you later. The crew will call you once the set is ready."
Brianna nodded and started reading.
"Shella Vancob. A woman in her 30s who wants to be a famous actress. She was from the UK but went to America to pursue her dream of becoming a famous actress..."
Brianna felt like the character resembled her life.
She was clueless about the reason why Salvatore wanted her to talk to Kazir. So she didn't understand the purpose of this cameo.
While she was reading more, her mood slowly changed. She was internally absorbing the essence of the character, to become her. She closed her eyes, merging with Shella Vancob.
Then, the door opened. This trailer was for extras to use and they didn't expect to see a famous actress inside.
Shella, I mean, Brianna opened her eyes and greeted the person.
"Good morning."
"Good morning-- Wait a minute, are you Miss Brianna Evans?"
"That's right. That's me."
Brianna's eyes were lively, unlike earlier. She smiled and waved her hand at the actress.
"W- wha--!! C- Can I get an autograph!? I'm a fan!"
"Of course."
"Wha--!"
The female actress almost squealed.
Because the trailer was for female extras, Brianna decided to leave the trailer and check the studio.
As of now, the crew members are adjusting the seats. The studio looked like a restaurant.
This was the scene where Dr. Octopus attacked Peter Parker in the restaurant to ask him about Spider-Man's whereabouts.
Brianna looked around and saw some actors she recognized such as Tobey Maguire and Kirsten Dunst. They became famous after the success of the first movie.
"Oh, looks like you came out of the trailer."
Kazir saw Brianna.
"So here's your role. You're the waiter who will bring coffee to Peter Parker and Mary Jane. You will smile at them and leave."
"Alright."
Brianna knew that this was the usual role for a vase. A vase is a term used when a beautiful woman is used as a background character, just to make the scene pleasing to the eye.
However, even a small screentime like was important to extras, because there was a salary increase. Even an extra who had one line had a higher salary compared to other extras who were just in the background.
Kazir was satisfied when he saw that Brianna looked fine now. At least her eyes didn't look dead.
"That's great to hear. Oh, after this scene don't immediately leave. I have a script here that might take your interest. I know you want to participate in the Academy Awards, so maybe this script can help you."
Brianna then looked at Kazir with surprise.
