Chapter 73: Photoshoot

Crystal's POV
"It fits me," I told the photographers, who all just stared at me dumbfounded along with Mrs Nur.

"You look beautiful, Crystal!" Mrs Nur remarked, running up to me and tapping both my shoulders. "It's like you got a makeover overnight." She then turned over to the cameramen staff. "Alright guys, I'll be entrusting her into your own hands. Looking forward to the results of the photoshoot!" She then disappeared, and the next two hours became the most eventful of my life.
Green Screen room
"Now, the past Wanderer and the aspiring Wanderer would stand back to back on this green screen," the cameramen instructed. We held hands together, and stood back to back before the cameramen gave us instructions on how to proceed with the faces. Lifting my face up, I waited for the cameraman to take our photos. That was the album cover.

I was now going to pose for the official promotional poster. Staying on the green screen setup, I pretended to be conducting an orchestra, as the cameramen took pictures of me. After that, I was given a break as each of the main cast members did their poses to reveal their roles. This allowed me time to look at official profiles of anime and cartoons to find a suitable pose for Melody. When I found my pose, I posed for the camera and captured this moment in time. I then proceeded to pose for even more promotional photos, specifically those with the other characters of the show.

Peer Outreach Room

The Peer Outreach Room had a sofa we could use, so I was seated down on the sofa. The actors for the mother and father then sat down and then we posed like it was a family picture. We even had a few shots, one where we were huddled together, one of us arguing and one of us making up after the argument that led Melody to run away. I had yet to change out of this outfit because of how each of the promotional photos must be done in the new generation Wanderer's costumes.

I was then led out of the room, where I had to walk next to the manager and pretend like we were talking about work-related matters. That didn't seem too difficult, I just had to walk on and on until the photographer secured a photo for all of us and then we proceeded to the hall where we were preparing to take photos for the iconic argument. That pissed me off, however. It was like we were going to piss people off with the spoilers, but then I realised they were just establishing Melody's interactions with the other characters. After all the photos were taken, we eventually ended the photoshoot with one group photo of the whole cast, and we then realised where all the photos were going: to the Instagram account, YouTube channel and "KCP Musical blog."

Being part of the centennial musical was a fulfilling experience thus far. I was able to experience the entertainment industry and what they did because of how seriously our musical has been taken, to the point channels have been made about it. We would be doing a "behind the scenes" interview and filming to tell everyone that the musical tickets have started selling online too. I am so excited to see how this musical turns out!
