Hollywood Simulation
After acting as agent to Miss Gloria Morningstar, I've come to realize I would never survive playing this actual role in Hollywood. I never realized the difficulty that is involved in getting a film on it's feet. In fact, I didn't think it was a difficult task at all, I assumed the actual filming of the movie was the difficult part...what was I thinking? I have a tendency to want to know all my options, however this morning options were coming and going so fast I didn't even know what they were. Before I knew it we were down to the wire and there weren't many options left. Throughout the process of finding the best contract I felt extremely selfish. Sure I wanted the best for my client, however I only got 10% of what she made so I had to look out for myself while weighing the options. Still we had to find something that best fit Faith's, I mean Miss Morningstar's abilities and talents. Obviously, one major goal was to find something that would show your talents, however sticking to the norm wouldn't get us anywhere. Audiences want something new, different, and intriguing, however it must still be familiar and comfortable, kind of like the popular myths within movies. So, we had to find something that wasn't too far fetched, but still showed all the capabilities of this actress, while getting a good paycheck in the process. Finally after the bargining and chaos of signing or not, in the end I was confident with our choice. Yes, maybe we played it safe in a way, and I'm sure in this actual business you would have to take risks, but thankfully today wasn't the real deal :)
