Portraying a new personality

Lee came around ten in the morning to pick me up for the brand commercial photoshoots. As I had my relationship updated, they wanted to do a new set of commercials with the clothes and watches, and other items. I was thinking of how to incorporate Little Moon in each work I do.

My wish is to use these advertisements to create a positive vibe on introverted personalities and not model-looking people to have a chance to show the beautiful and talented side of them. Let others appreciate them for who they really are rather than the materialistic outlook everyone prefers.

I went to the brand company to have a discussion before going into the photo shoot. I told them,

"I know you all want to use my current relationship as a marketing tool. But I have a request for you. Hope you will agree to it."

"Let's hear it" said the Art director of the brand.

"My upcoming drama is a bit of a soft love story. This is also with animated scenes as one of the main characters is a professional 3d character designer. That character represents the real-life fiancee of mine."

"Oh my..so"

"Yes, this drama is a real-life story combined with imaginary events, but not a high-pitched violence or action drama, a slow pace story that calms your mind."

"So you want to incorporate these in the brands?"

"Yes, and I have to say that you guys can already identify her by the work she has done so far."

"Really" they were unable to think it's true.

"Just look at that photo of the 3d character" everyone looked at it and said,

"She is the creator of that vision"

"Yes. You might not know more details about her still. In near future, you will get to know. Because we will be collaborating with her."

"How did she remain so anonymized till now." I just smiled.

"So first is her personality should be incorporated in everything."

I further showed them the photos I took of her, and the clips I have recorded of her.

"She is really talented. Would you mind sharing these with us?" They asked.

"I am sorry these are personal and you might have trouble later with her partner company in Europe. You can use these as references when creating the ads. And they will be personally evaluated by her before posting."

"Mr.George, may I ask you a question?" asked the lady who was introduced as the assistant art director in the art department.

"Yes, please"

"She doesn't seem to be your style. Not modern or a not beauty in that perspective." Everyone else was trying to stop her. "How can you be with such a person. Look at those ugly scars even. Doesn't she even know to cover them up."

"Miss, there is a huge difference between you and her. She is able to be true to herself, her appearance and everything around her not like you, who seem to be acting as you love everything and hiding your real look under huge amounts of makeup. And to be honest with you and everyone, I fell in love with her because of her personality to accept herself and even those scars."

I know I had made her angry, but I had to tell her the truth, so she will learn to appreciate herself.

She left the meeting after being humiliated. She asked for it herself though.

"OK getting back on track, I want these upcoming advertisements to show that every type of person is appreciated without any judgment. A positive message to send out to society. What do you think, Bob?" I asked the art director.

"I agree with what you said. We need to educate others to love themselves even though they have flaws. Mt.George, your finacee is she a person who goes out a lot?"

I smiled at him, "No she is an introvert and a highly sensitive person when it comes to crowds."

"I saw a seashell bottle and some unique little stuff on the things you showed us. What do you think if we incorporate them with the concepts? "

"That's how it should be. Remember to use yellow flowers and things that show off her profession."

After that, we got ready for the evening promotional shoot for the brand. They quickly did the scene and background with various elements to complement Little Moon's personality. I got Little Moon to talk with the team, so their task can be made easy.

I have to say her ideas on creating the backdrops for the clothes shoot were brilliant. Just a few things and the shoot turned out pretty well. In one go we were able to wrap things up. As I was about to leave the studio Bob came to me.

"Mr.George, I have to admire your girl." this put a smile on my face.

"Why is that?"

"She is a natural talent. Just imagine the setups she told to create. There was nothing expensive nor complicated. All were just small and easy to find things that made the setup look absolutely gorgeous."

"I knew she could help you in this urgent situation. That's why I got her to talk to you guys."

"Thank her for you, Mr.George."

"Can I see the final photos and the photo you are hoping to use for the cover?"

Bob took me and Lee to the art department. I heard all of them were talking about the shoot and they all seemed surprised how can a talent like her be hidden, in this era.

"HI," I got a call from Little Moon.

"How was the shoot?"

"That went really well thanks to your input."

"Oh I just told you what to do but they all did the hard work." As usual, she credits others for her hard work.

"Please give my Thanks to your mother."

"Why?"

"She had already sent me a huge parcel with every flavor of rameen noodles she can find with some traditional sweets."

"Oh really, but remember don't eat them all the time." I laughed at her, knowing how much she loves rameen noodles with boiled eggs.

"I also found a pack of sketch pens under the cushion today."

"Really, what did you draw with it?"

"Check your message."

And she hung up. When I checked the message, I saw she had sent a sketch of me holding a seashell.
