Freya thought, as a woman, I had always strived to balance emotional elements with logical storytelling in my scripts. But Daniel’s adaptations revealed my limitations–his rational enhancements made the plot far more cohesive,
“I’ve cut many of the emotional touches that defined your novel, they’re hard to translate visually. You’ve preserved what you could.
Daniel, despite his reputation, remained humble. “If you have ideas to better retain that essence, I’m open. This isn’t just about artistic flair–it’s the story’s soul.”
His recognition surprised and pleased Freya, though solutions eluded her. “Softer cinematography might help. Maybe internal monologues? But overdo it, and it becomes a parody. Your version’s logic strengthens the narrative–it’s an improvement
“We’ll proceed for now, Daniel decided. “Observe how actors interpret emotions, it’ll help your growth.” His mentorship felt genuine.
Freya nodded eagerly. Tll study everything. Thank you, Mr. Daniel,”
Daniel nodded slightly and said, “Let’s go, make a tour around. In this place, everything will connect to the stories, it will make it easier to learn.
On set tours, she absorbed his interactions with department heads.
This revealed how much my past success had relied on others‘ expertise–my original director had likely kept me mainly for the “adapted by author” prestige.
The realization sharpened her focus. If she wanted to thrive in this field, she needed to learn properly.
By wrap time, 9 PM. Freya was exhausted. The mediocre catering left her hungry, so she grabbed chicken porridge on the way back.
Mid–shower, her phone rang. Seeing Louis‘ name, she winced–she’d forgotten to check in
“Just got back,” she answered, toweling her hair.
“Working this late?” Louis‘ voice soothed his own restlessness. He’d waited anxiously since her last message.
First–day chaos. There are many things to set up. But that’s normal for this Geld. Earlier than some night shoots though. It’s common for us if we don’t sleep all night due to the urgent timing.”
“Can your health handle this?” His frown deepened.
Freya downplayed it. “Of course. Writers get breaks. Especially when actors are performing. There are cots for napping also We can sleep when we are tired.”
Anyway, as if anyone could sleep through set noise, that’s truly tiring.
Louis saw through her deflection but didn’t press. “How was the team?”
“Great! Zane’s supportive, and Mr. Daniel, contrary to his aloof reputation, gave me real guidance.”
Her luck felt surreal. Unlike toxic sets she’d heard about, this one was harmonious.
