Listening to the discussions around her and the director's furious reprimand, Veronica remained surprisingly calm. "Let's do it again."
Having encountered so many retakes, it was a lie to say that Veronica didn't feel any pressure.
However, she believed that since she had already joined the crew and made up her mind to act well, she had to persevere to the end.
She never easily admitted defeat.
"Are you sure you can do it, Veronica?" Eviette walked up to her and expressed her concern.
Veronica shook her head and calmly replied, "I'm sorry for dragging you down."
"Don't worry about it. After all, you are a rookie, so it's understandable." Eviette smiled gently and shared a few acting techniques with Veronica.
Then, they re-shot the scene. This time, Veronica finally portrayed the crying scene well, achieving the effect the director wanted.
After that, it was Eviette's scene with the male lead, Camden.
Veronica headed to a tree on the side and leaned against it while shutting her eyes to get some rest.
Just then, someone patted her shoulder. When Veronica opened her eyes, she saw Melvin handing her a bottle of mineral water. "Have some water."
After being cold-shouldered by the crew, she felt unexpectedly touched by Melvin's insignificant gesture.
"Thank you."
She took it without hesitation, unscrewed the lid, and took a sip.
She was already thirsty from reciting her lines after shooting for so long.
Melvin sat next to her and comforted her, "Don't take their words to heart. As a rookie, it's normal for you to take the time to learn."
"You're right." Veronica let out a sigh of relief and watched Eviette and Camden shooting their scene not far away.
Similar to Veronica, Camden couldn't keep up with Eviette and ended up with several retakes.
"Stay here. I'll go check on Camden." Melvin knew that if Camden encountered retakes, he would come to him, so he immediately got up and ran over.
Veronica rarely had free time, so she got up and walked to a nearby corridor, sitting on a bench and focusing on studying the script.
