‘I was completely immersed?’

Jo Woon-seok held his breath and watched Cha Do-young.

Hwang Hye-jin also seems to have the same feelings, and is watching nervously without making a sound.

Cha Do-young was completely immersed in the script.

He turns the pages of the paper as if he is possessed, his eyes fixed straight ahead.

What on earth is the author looking at on the pulp, which is made up of only letters?

The eyeballs twitch strangely and the eyebrows wiggle.

I feel like jumping into his head and wondering what kind of acting he is seeing in his imagination.

It’s not a made-up appearance.

There is no reason for that.

There is no doubt that Cha Do-young vividly portrays in his mind, through text, a landscape that others cannot see.

That is how you completely immerse yourself in the world you have created.

Finally, the last page has been turned.

“Doyoung, you were really engrossed in reading it. Did you really like the content?”

“That… I read it while imagining how actress Hwang Hye-jin would act, so I got more immersed in it.”

Cha Do-young’s eyes were not directed at him.

Still chasing the void.

“You read it while imagining Hyejin’s acting? You felt more immersed?”

‘How strong is your imagination?’

Did you major in art?

If that’s the case, then I think that kind of strong immersion can be explained to some extent.

“What scene impressed you the most, Doyoung?”

“Oh, scene 32 in episode 1, no, scene 17 was good too, and ah. scene 12 in episode 2 was really good because it had a lyrical feel.”

Jo Woon-seok asked, momentarily dumbfounded.

“You didn’t read the script once and memorize it, did you?”

“Of course, not all of them. No, no. I only remember the scenes that impressed me. ”

‘Impressed?’

It’s a little strange.

I saw the script, so it’s not a wrong expression.

It felt closer to the nuance of “viewing” rather than “reading.”

Hwang Hye-jin quickly looked through her script and found the scene in question.

And then he tilts his head as if he is wondering.

“Brother. That scene has no dialogue and is just a scene done with fingerprints?”

Jo Woon-seok also quickly confirmed the scene.

‘It’s just like Hyejin said, right?’

These are scenes that are handled normally with one line of text, without any dialogue.

Those scenes were the most touching.

‘I’m not the type of person to show off for nothing. Is there a reason?’

With such a rich visual imagination and sensitivity, could it be that he imagined some images that others could not?

“Just a moment. I’ll sketch it out for you.”

“Sketch?”

Cha Do-young opened his notebook and quickly began sketching with a ballpoint pen.

Jo Woon-seok’s eyes widened.

‘You’re not a beginner?’

The pen touch is not ordinary.

It draws images on a blank sheet of paper as accurately and neatly as if by a machine.

A large and clean hotel lounge on the 5th floor.

At the window, Hwang Hye-jin’s boyfriend is sitting with a woman.

Hwang Hye-jin is looking up from outside the hotel with bloodshot eyes and trembling hands.

Happy couple.

A pitiful Hwang Hye-jin looking outside, soaked in a sense of betrayal.

A quick sketch is just a simple combination of refined lines.

It shows how great the sense of betrayal is that Hwang Hye-jin feels.

“Oh my.”

Hwang Hye-jin also looked at the sketch with a surprised sound.

Jo Yun-seok and I put our heads together and stared at the storyboard.

It’s just a concise storyboard drawn up in a short period of time.

It’s full of life, as if you’ve stepped into the writer’s head.

This is definitely not the work of an amateur.

“Doyoung, did you major in art by any chance?”

“No, it’s not that, just a hobby… .”

“Hobby, hobby.”

‘Isn’t this better than a professional movie storyboard writer?’

Above all, it is incredibly fast.

I couldn’t even see the hand movements properly.

‘It wasn’t just a totem.’

Jo Woon-seok felt like cursing the General Affairs Department.

How dare you ask such a talented person to do chores that anyone with a healthy body could do.

‘Oh, isn’t that what I should be saying?’

A bitter smile came out.

Even though he himself was the youngest manager, he asked me to run errands.

“Doyoung, would you like to hold the camera?”

“Huh? What is that… .”

“Ah, it’s nothing. Just let our Hyejin be the camera manager for once. Follow her around with a camera and take pictures of everything she can. ”

“Is there a manager like that?”

“There wasn’t any, but I made one today.”

It is also the manager’s job to film the artist’s vlog and making-of videos whenever he or she has time.

However, there is no manager who carries around a camera and focuses only on filming.

That’s not the manager’s job. It’s left to the photography experts.

“Is there a camera model you want? Just let me know and I’ll get you most of it.”

“Uh, what kind of camera do you like?”

“Why are you asking me that?”

“I don’t know anything about cameras.”

“Are you interested in the video?”

“Yes, I’m interested. It’s been a little over a month since I started having fun.”

“… You’ve never handled a camera before?”

“I just thought video editing was cool, so I thought I should do it later, and I’m vaguely studying it… .”

“… .”

“… .”

Of course, Jo Woon-seok and Hwang Hye-jin,

Even the road manager’s breathing became quiet.

“Whew.”

Jo Woon-seok let out a light sigh.

“Then I will get you a suitable model, so study from now on. If there is anything you don’t know, ask me. No, I will introduce you to someone, so ask.”

“But is that really okay? I don’t think that’s something managers usually do… .”

“I just wanted to see you.”

Jo Yun-seok was a neighbor.

“How far can Doyoung go?”

***

【You can use Mr. Cha Do-young’s hands to print the sketch on paper.】

【Would you like to print it?】

I was happy to leave it to the video app since it told me so.

The moment I picked up the notebook and pen, I felt the control of my hands shift for a moment.

It was a very strange feeling.

I could clearly feel my fingers moving quickly and clearly as I touched the pen.

But the moment the sketch was completed, all those feelings disappeared as if washed away.

This is a little embarrassing.

Because I didn’t draw it, the video app used my body as a tool to draw it.

It is unacceptable for a person with true conscience to pretend to have talent by stealing.

【This is how the 30th century is done.】

If you install the Millennium Later app, you should follow the Millennium Later customs, right?

Even I, who doesn’t know much about drawing, thought this was really cool.

First of all, the working time was not that long.

Even though it looks like a rough drawing, the image it is trying to convey is clear and distinct.

Of course, it is no different from the drama video that the video app showed me.

This is just a simple image sketch.

But it seemed enough to show the two people the image I wanted to convey and his intentions.

“Carry a camera around and take nice pictures of Hyejin’s every move. If anyone comes near, capture them all too.”

“Hey, Team Leader Oppa. I don’t have that.”

“Yes, Hyejin. Keep making me believe that.”

Does this mean I got promoted in one day?

From errand manager to camera manager.

By the way, if I get a camera, I’ll have to study how to use it.

I’m already busy studying video-related subjects these days, so the amount of studying will increase.

【I will collect the video data anyway.】

【Just hold the camera and pretend to take a picture.】

Then, do I not need to study camera handling separately?

Click here for my video from a thousand years later.

I believed it.

By the way, it’s really a shame.

While watching the scene where the script was visualized, I was momentarily delusional.

For a moment, I had the ridiculous illusion that I was watching a preview of a drama that would air in the future.

But that’s not it.

What I saw was that the video app created each and every frame from scratch based on the script.

It is obviously completely different from the results that a PD will create later before filming even begins.

The background, props, CG, colors, extras, everything will be incomparably shabby.

If we compare it to vehicles, wouldn’t the difference in video quality be greater than that of a limited edition Ferrari and a small car?

【Considering the scale of the production cost, it will probably be of the quality of a carriage, not a sled.】

It’s not comforting at all… .

If this video were aired as is, it would be a huge hit.

That’s too bad.

I can’t even say that I’ll do CG work on my channel.

***

Cha Do-young gets out of the van and goes home alone.

Hwang Hye-jin, who was carefully looking at the image storyboard he left behind, looked back at Jo Woon-seok.

“I love the picture.”

“Right? I think so too.”

“I can feel what kind of image the scriptwriter imagined, wrote the lines, and summarized it in one line through these few pictures.”

“That’s also a really great talent.”

“But you said you brought me here as the youngest manager at first?”

Jo Woon-seok scratched his head awkwardly.

“He’s big, honest, and seems to be full of luck. I thought it would be good to keep him by my side and raise him to be my manager.”

“Do you think Doyoung oppa is more talented as a director or producer than as a manager?”

Pintree is an entertainment company.

It is a company that nurtures and retains artists, not just producers or directors.

We don’t know it now, but Cha Do-young and Pinetree will eventually fall out of favor.

“Well, then why don’t you just leave it to the company to run the YouTube channel?”

It was just a joke.

Hwang Hye-jin stared intently at the sketch of the scene in the script, then raised her head again.

“Team Leader, I have a favor to ask.”
