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!

“I figured!” Kaya replied, grinning. She eased up though: she didn’t want to hurt Matt for being too overzealous. “I’m glad you could make it! I hoped that you were still getting more work: I tried to keep in touch, but I’ve been getting swamped with all of the stuff I had to do.”

She looked genuinely sympathetic. “How’s the leg?”

"Ah I'm kind of just running on residuals right now," admitted Matt. "My role in WITCH has been cut down severely, especially since after my accident."

He thumped it one. "Healing. But I'll walk with a limp for a long time."
