“Ms. Schaffer will see you now,” Claudia’s assistant said, gesturing toward the office with a no-nonsense look in her eyes. I rose from my seat in the waiting area and walked toward Claudia’s corner office, enclosed by a massive glass wall that gave the place a very professional and chic vibe. I remembered having a similar office during my days working for a big firm in my first life. Times were different now, of course, but the atmosphere was exactly the same. The only real difference now was…- 231.0 K • Ongoing
“Action!” The moment the word was said, the entire set came alive. Music filled the air, echoing through the vast soundstage like a heartbeat as everyone moved in unison. It felt less like a film shoot and more like watching a living, breathing symphony. Scarlett and Natalie Portman were at the center, their movements blending seamlessly with those of the professional ballet dancers surrounding them. There was no clear distinction between the stars and the background performers, yet my eyes never…- 1.0 M • Ongoing
- “Ryan! What the hell are you doing there!? Your job is to hold that equipment over there! Don’t you dare ruin the shot now!” Ryan felt all the blood leave his face as soon as he heard the reprimand from the first AD. It was just his first month working at Phoenix Studios, and he had already messed up a few times. He was sure that with one more fuck-up on his hands, he’d be out on the streets. “Calm down, Terry,” the director of the film, Evan Spader, who was even younger than Ryan, said…

- In the end, I couldn’t find a reason not to tell Scarlett everything about the Weinstein plot. So, I did. When I finished, silence filled the room. Scarlett sat across from me, her expression frozen somewhere between disbelief and confusion. She seemed far more surprised than I had expected. “Say something,” I gently prodded. “Let me get this straight,” she began slowly, her brows furrowing. “You’re trying to expose Harvey Weinstein as a sexual predator because he didn’t let you…

- Warning: NSFW content (aka smut) ahead. Sean entered the room, carefully and slowly, making sure not to spook us by any sudden movement. “Are you kids ready?” “As ready as I’ll ever be,” I said, my tone bland and devoid of any real enthusiasm. The old cabin didn’t have any air-conditioning, and Sean didn’t have the budget to install it for the production. The summer heat, when combined with nerves, made my body glisten with sweat. And that was when I wore nothing underneath the…

- One moment I was lifting Emily into the air, the next she was trying to attack me with everything she had. “Put me down!” she cried, panic sharp in her voice. Her hands turned into frantic, metaphorical claws, swiping wildly and coming within an inch of scratching my face clean off. So, of course, I put her down. The instant her feet touched the ground, she curled in on herself like she was trying to disappear, then bolted off the set without a word. She didn’t even pause to explain what had…

- As soon as the first commercial break started, I stormed toward the audience, fully intending to break Kanye’s nose. The energy in the room crackled with tension, but what I saw there made me second-guess my decision. “You’re a little piece of shit!” a woman was shouting directly in Kanye West’s face. Her voice cut sharply through the noise of the crowd. “Who gave you the right to ruin someone else’s moment? God, if there weren’t thousands of people around, I’d have broken your nose,…

- “If you’ll all give me your attention.” Sean Cunningham raised a champagne glass high above his head. The room quieted almost instantly. Everyone turned towards him. Even I did the same, surprised to see how relaxed he looked. Sean was usually tight-shouldered and restless, always pacing or double checking something, so seeing him loose and smiling felt strange. I guess what they say about the filmmaking business is true. It’s a tiring job that wears people down. “I couldn’t have made…

- “Congratulations on the movie!” Conan O’Brien said with a wide grin, his eyes sparkling with mischief as the audience applauded. “ is easily my favorite female-led movie of the year.” “Thank you!” Emily replied, her smile warm and genuine as she tucked a loose strand of hair behind her ear. “As soon as I read the script, I just knew I had to do it.” Conan nodded thoughtfully, glancing at his cue cards before looking back at her. “You reunite with Troy Armitage, your long-term…

- “I have to tell you something important,” I said somberly as I sat down in front of my girl. Not really. She was thousands of miles away, and we were talking through Skype. Still, it felt like we were sitting across from each other in our living room. It was the thought that mattered. She furrowed her brow at my tone. “Actually, I have to tell you something important, too. I was...forced to do something. I felt like I had no option at all.” The air seemed to thicken between us, neither of…
