Chapter 158 [Bonus Chapter] 158 - Problem

- 3rd POV -

"Okay, I'm ready." Noah said as he nodded after reading the script paper for 5 minutes.

Seeing that he was ready, Angelina Parker nodded at him and took the paper as well.

"I will play Harley and Francis will play Steve, his father-in-law in the show. Now imagine you're on the doorstep of the Duncan house." She explained.

Hearing this, Noah nodded and held out his hand, pretending to knock on the door.

"Knock knock..." He made the sound of the door with his mouth.

Angelina stretched her hand forward and opened an invisible door, even though she was sitting far away, and played her part of the script.

"You've finally arrived, Jack!" she said.

Despite not being an actress, Angelina was able to naturally portray how Harley would act, not on a level that Laura could interpret, of course, but it was still a convincing level for those watching.

Noah even determined that her acting skills were between Lv 10 and Lv 20, which was very good for someone who didn't have that as the main focus of her career.

"Hey babe." Noah said with a cute smile on his face as he winked with one eye. "Of course I came to see you."

"Ow Jack... don't act like that here, my mom could show up any minute..." 'Harley' replied with a smile before leading Jack into the scene.

"Hehe..." 'Jack' just laughed as he started to look around the 'house' curiously.

Throughout the scene, the way 'Jack' acted was quite strange and odd to Angelina and her two assistants, who hadn't expected him to act that way.

As the scene progressed, Angelina as well as Francis and Gary were surprised by Noah's interpretation.

Mainly because they still had a vague memory of what Noah's acting level was like the last time they saw him with Laura and how he was acting now, which was a change from water to wine.

What was once just a beginner who had just started learning to act, now looked like Noah had become an actor who had been practicing for years...

How is that possible? Angelina asked in shock. Didn't he show his true skills the last time he practiced with Laura?

Angelina couldn't even believe that Noah had started learning to act less than a month ago, because in her opinion it was impossible for someone to learn to act as fast as he said.

When his first scene was finally over, Angelina couldn't help but ask. "What was your interpretation of the character 'Jack'?"

Knowing the actors' point of view of the characters they were playing was very important for the directors and writers of the script, as they would know how to follow it if it was good, or if they needed to correct it if it was bad.

Especially with such a unique and strange way that Noah had invented for the character of 'Jack', Angelina was really curious about what his interpretation of this character was.

Noah looked at Angelina and the paper as he replied. "From what I saw of the script, Jack has a band with his friends at school, he doesn't get very good grades, but because of his good looks he usually gets what he wants. So it was natural for me to act like a teenager of that style because I've always been surrounded by people like that. The only unique thing I did was to try to think of a problem for Jack."

"What do you mean?" Angelina asked interestedly.

"That was an exercise our drama teacher taught to give characters more depth. It said, 'Come up with a problem that this character has in their personal life, and as long as it doesn't change the character's original story too much, adapt it to your performance to make it more realistic.' So I made up a problem and used it subtly in Jack's interpretation while thinking about how someone with that problem would act in the scenes. Noah explained, causing 4 of the 5 people in the room to raise their eyebrows in surprise, except for Laura, who already knew.

"And what problem would you think of for 'Jack'?" Angelina asked.

"Since Jack has a band and I'm a singer in real life, I thought I'd make it so that he had a problem writing his last song and was constantly looking for inspiration from things that were happening in the scene to write his next song." Noah explained, leaving everyone looking surprised.

Remembering how Noah played Jack and how he looked at things on the set with curiosity and watched the other characters with interest, they finally understood why.

As soon as Angelina heard this, her eyes began to glaze over because she thought that not only did this fit perfectly with the backstory she had created for Jack, but it was also perfect for Noah, who already had a musical background and knew exactly how someone like that acted in situations like this.

Not to mention that with this idea of how Noah was acting towards Jack, Angelina even started coming up with other scene ideas for this character that weren't even supposed to exist in the original script.

Noah didn't know this, but his simple comment meant that the character he was going to play had a slight change in his importance to the story.

"I like your idea, you can use it for the next scenes." Angelina said with a smile as she looked at Noah with even more interest.

Hearing that Angelina wanted him to play for more scenes, Noah, Laura and Selena were excited because they knew that if she was asking them to try out more, it was because she liked his performance and his chances of getting the part had increased.

So Noah nodded and they went back to acting for more scenes, with Noah giving a unique interpretation compared to the other actors who had auditioned for the same role, as well as a much higher technical level than this character originally required.
