The Return of the Actor Meme!

[notsaintkaiser.livejournal.com]

Reviving a meme for great justice! Quoted from the original post:

It's Transmigration 9 Studios. No, the name doesn't make any sense, except that the owner, Stacy, has owned eight studios before this and they've all crashed and burned. Which feels so great for the actors and their sense of job security, let me tell you.

As soon as they're done with their scenes, the characters stop playing their roles and make it real. The scripts are tossed aside, and they can relax now that the cameras are off of them.

What does this mean? Well, perhaps Billy is an actual college graduate, who is disgusted with the scientific inaccuracies and techspeak mumbo-jumbo of his character. Perhaps Kang is a fit Japanese man in a rubber dragon suit. Maybe Renne is a former theater actor that speaks with a posh English accent? Who knows, perhaps Nehaa is a conservative Catholic who finds her role as a stripperiffic space goat horrifying! And it might an ongoing joke off-screen that Leon can't fight for shit, Steve's actor stands in for him during action scenes.

So, what are you waiting for? Let's have some fun!

Mindy chuckled. "Hey, I admire you, you know? With me, I got my dream character. However crazy she gets, its within her character. Yours, she was there longer, and got to have all this character development. That, and she has this whole family thing going for her. You can't help but like Sasami now: hell, I like her now, and my character admits it too, though begrudgingly.

"Good characters usually ARE stubborn for awhile."

"Thanks, Mindy..." Sasami said, smiling at her friend. She couldn't help but reach over and hug her briefly. Her character might not of liked it, but she'd still do it anyways!

Mindy would have been the first to tell her that her character still had no idea how to react to things like that: she was too worried about losing someone she loved if she opened herself too quickly.

"Anyway I can help, just let me know," she said, winking. "Hell, I might even do a horror flick sometime in the future, just to shake things up."
