489. set part 2.
The recordings were progressing pleasantly, with the evening fast approaching. It was a little past five in the afternoon, and many scenes had already been shot. However, the crew was exhausted. Monica held a novel in her hand, watching the scenes unfold from afar, shifting her attention from one set to another when something caught her eye.
-So, Billy is considered a high-tier actor for his age, but low-tier compared to the veterans of the industry, - Monica remarked, her words potentially open to misinterpretation. She had a penchant for provoking those who spoke ill of the young man, like a mother ready to defend her children, her claws poised to counter any accusation.
-I wouldn’t put him in such a low category. He’s simply the greatest rising star, at least with his precision—something that’s rare to find, especially among the young. Though the current generation is immensely talented, the boy stands out, - commented John Ladou.

The cameras focused intently as he viewed each take from different angles. Now dressed in an elegant formal suit, Billy had been filming for two hours already that day. The good pace brought some relief to Cameron, whose rough demeanor had softened slightly. The push from everyone to work more efficiently had sped up the schedule. Recording had now taken two months, pre-production five months, and post-production would take at least another six.

-Get your suit on, kid; we’re filming some scenes now that you’ve got the outfit, - Cameron instructed. They needed ten takes. At this point, they were filming the final scenes, where Rose dies and appears young again aboard the Titanic, alive, vibrant, and brimming with hope—holding on to the memory that time hadn’t erased.
-I’ll grab a sip of water, - Billy said, stretching his arms. Six hours of work and the intense focus required were taking their toll.

They moved on to the next take. Everyone synchronized their watches as Billy slicked back his hair. Monica thought he looked dashing, while Kate seemed taken aback by how striking he appeared, perfectly fitting the role.
The filming circle tightened as they captured each scene from various angles. The crew gathered around to discuss a few things with him, while Billy waved to Monica from a distance, careful not to lose the intensity required for the scenes.
The crew swiftly moved on to the next scenes. Billy took a moment to relax—his parts were done for now. The night had fallen, and more scenes awaited to be filmed.
