In the temporary rest area for actors beside the playground, Setant, who had just finished putting on makeup, watched the entire process.
He pinched his chin and pretended to be very familiar with the situation and analyzed: "It seems that our director has a lot of feelings for his school girl~"
"Setant, stop gossiping." Sugiyama patted his shoulder and reminded him, "It's better for us not to interfere in Kiryu-sensei's affairs."
"But this time, Senior is indeed a little stricter than before."
Ori actually agreed with Setant's words, "My predecessor said that as a commercial film, we can't be too picky."
Previously, the seniors' requirements for actors' performances were not very high, as long as they reached the passing standard, there would be no problem."
"But this time is an exception." Ori looked at Nanaya who was communicating with the props team thoughtfully, "This time, the attitude of the senior is much stricter than before. Fortunately, he didn't do this when he was working on "Kara no Kyoukai". "
When I think about it, if Nanaya had demanded the same of himself as he does now, I would have probably been tortured to death.
Thinking of this, Ori couldn't help but shudder.
Nanaya didn't know that his junior fellow apprentice was criticizing him again. At this moment, he was once again directing the hanging of Rin in the air.
Although the action scenes in UBW will be intense, the role of literary drama is equally important in the film.
Nanaya needs to establish the images of more than ten characters within 5 hours and leave a deep impression on the audience.
To be honest, Nanaya himself was not very confident, so he could only try his best to make everything in the movie perfect.
Especially the actors' acting skills. If the actors' performance is average, the characters will lack soul, which will make the characters less full and ultimately affect the entire movie.
Many people like to separate the plot and characters when evaluating a movie.
But Nanaya knew very well that characters and plot have always been inseparable.
True masters of narrative use characters to drive the plot, and then use the plot to shape the characters.
On UBW, Nanaya also plans to do the same.
Use the story of the Holy Grail War to shape the characters, and then use these Masters and Servants to build the Type-Moon world.
Therefore, for each role, Nanaya must study it thoroughly.
This even greatly affected the speed of filming, but Nanaya still had no intention of compromising.
If it was the Goblin Slayer in "Goblin Slayer", Nanaya would probably just let Rin strike a few cool poses.
But this is Tohsaka Rin, the second female lead in Fate and the leading female lead in this UBW movie. Nanaya must use the most stringent standards to require Rin to complete this role.
So for this scene of falling from the sky, Nanaya finally said it was passable after he lifted Rin up seven times.
When Rin came down from the wire for the last time, he ran directly into the toilet in the teaching building and vomited.
"Am I going a little too far?"
Nanaya said after realizing it a little bit late.
"Yes, that's exactly right." Lily nodded and said, "If outsiders didn't know what kind of person you are, Director Nanaya, it would really seem like you were targeting her."
"Um..."
Nanaya looked in the direction where Rin left with some worry.
"Go ahead if you want to." Lily urged, "I checked for you, there's no one in the women's room right now."
"Hey, don't make me sound like a pervert..."
Nanaya complained, but he still walked into the teaching building.
"Tell everyone else to get ready for me. I'll be back in 5 minutes."
Lily nodded: "Hai~ You can go without any worries."
"Really? Am I creating an opportunity for her by doing this? But my sister is unwilling to take the initiative... It looks so troublesome..."
Lily tilted her head and muttered softly to herself.
"Um... Miss Wettin, the director..."
The assistant script supervisor said to Lily who was blocking the entrance of the teaching building.
"Well... our director needs to comfort the heroine, so you can ask the others to finish what they need to do first. I believe it should only take a short while and won't delay the filming."
Although confused, the assistant script supervisor wisely chose to remain silent after hearing the words "director" and "actress".
[But, is a little while enough? Isn't our director too fast? Or is he too fast? ]
So, for a period of time afterwards, Nanaya's reputation in the crew became strange.
————————————————————————
At this time, Nanaya didn't know that in the eyes of the crew members, he had become the quick-shooter Billy the Kid.
Otherwise he would twist off the head of the guy who spread the rumor.
After entering the teaching building, Nanaya followed his memory and walked to the women's restroom at the end of the first floor.
As a result, as soon as he stood at the door, he saw Rin wiping his handkerchief and preparing to come out.
"Forehead..."
Nanaya stood at the door, not knowing how to explain his behavior.
Rin, on the other hand, immediately calmed down after her initial surprise.
"Are you planning to attack me while I'm in the bathroom? If so, you're always welcome."
Facing Rin's female hooligan declaration, Nanaya held his forehead and sighed: "Rin, you are a girl, please be reserved."
"Being reserved won't tempt you to take action..."
"Stop!"
Nanaya hurriedly stopped the girl from continuing speaking.
"Are you okay? I was a little worried when I saw you rush in."
Nanaya decisively brought the topic back to the right track.
Rin rolled his eyes at Nanaya: "Why, do you think I'll hide in the bathroom and cry like a little girl?"
Nanaya scratched his cheek and didn't answer, but his expression clearly showed what he meant.
"Senior, you really underestimate my ability to bear it!"
Rin complained, putting his hands on his hips.
"And you..."
"I just felt a little sick because I came down from the wire too fast! If you care about me, you might as well ask them to slow down the speed of the wire!"
Rin said as he tapped Nanaya's forehead with a finger.
「Huh, that's great, Rin wasn't shocked...」
Nanaya breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Rin was still in high spirits.
"So, Senior, let me tell you..."
Rin couldn't help but stop when he saw Nanaya's relieved expression.
"Senior, what's that expression on your face? It makes me seem so vulnerable."
Rin felt a little embarrassed and she blushed and retracted her hand.
Nanaya scratched his head and said, "Well, I'm afraid you can't stand the blow."
When he took up the director's baton, Nanaya was able to ignore all his relatives, but now he is just a senior who cares about his junior.
"Snort."
Rin angrily kicked Nanaya on the calf.
"Ouch."
"You deserve it. I aspire to become a great being, but you actually thought I was so fragile. Senior, you really underestimate me."
"Okay, I was wrong." Nanaya covered his calf and smiled bitterly, "But Miss Tohsaka Rin, who wants to become a big shot, you can't even stand the wire hanging like this..."
"I told you, it was going up and down too fast! I got motion sickness!"
Rin repeated it unwillingly.
"Senior, I know very well that even if it wasn't me but someone else, you wouldn't let him go, right?"
"Indeed."
Nanaya nodded. No matter who the actor was, he would continue to perform NGs for him if he failed to meet his requirements.
This is also why Nanaya doesn't like working with big actors.
It would be easy if they have been working together for a long time like Ryougi Shiki and Tohsaka Rin, because everyone knows each other very well.
However, those big actors who have already become famous in the industry all have bad tempers, and very few of them are willing to follow the director's arrangements.
Take Tom Cruise for example. Although no one can deny his efforts as an action actor, his almost overbearing control over the crew makes him an extremely difficult person to work with.
"So, I understand everything." Rin nodded and said, "Senior, you did so many NGs for my own good. I won't blame you."
"Okay, I was wrong, okay? I thought Rin was too fragile."
Nanaya waved his hands in surrender.
"Of course, if you give me a reward, I don't mind."
"What reward do you want? I'm in the wrong this time. As long as it's not too excessive, I'll agree to it."
Nanaya said with some amusement.
"Then let's do what we haven't finished yet in the New Year."
Rin smiled slightly, closed her eyes, and stood on tiptoe.
The meaning is self-evident.
"Really…"
Nanaya smiled bitterly and shook his head.
"It's okay. Fortunately, I'm tall enough."
After saying that, the man reached out, pushed aside the woman's bangs, and gently kissed her on the forehead.
If this scene happened on a dimly lit street or on a yacht at sea, it would be a very romantic scene.
However, the location at this time was at the door of the women's restroom, which not only made the romance less intense, but also added a touch of funny flavor.
"Hmm…"
Rin was a little dissatisfied. This was obviously not what she wanted.
"Okay, stop being so awkward. You're pushing it too far."
Nanaya slapped Rin on the butt.
"On New Year's Day, I just wanted to kiss your forehead. Hurry up and get to the set, everyone is waiting for us."
"Snort."
Rin covered her little butt. Nanaya's hand caught her off guard.
"Senior, have you ever kissed Shimoya Sakura?"
Nanaya stopped.
"Yes, I have."
There was no point in lying about this kind of thing. After all, they were a normal couple before, and kissing was no big deal.
"Only half the game?"
Rin muttered somewhat regretfully.
"Um??"
"It's decided. Next time, I want you to kiss me on the mouth. You have to be prepared~"
Rin touched her own mouth with her index finger, and then pressed it on Nanaya's lips.
"She's been tricked again, this girl..."
Looking at Rin jumping away, Nanaya shrugged his shoulders.
