Chapter 13 - the time chosen

Most of the time in art, it can evoke a sense of powerlessness in those inspired to find an omen, the call to madness is to show readers a product good enough to impress the niche, impressing everyone from wide-eyed children to university students bored with their ghostly classes, who are in marginal stress from studying and working, to the teenager who can't decide on the future of their life, or the old person seeking shelter in an image that separates their life and distracts their thoughts.

The art system can repeat and navigate scripts across different eras and adapt them in beautiful artistic equality. The point is, when you recreate a work, you feel the perfection of the previous artist who seeks to achieve their own identity that composes the entire work. A work shines with pleasure, and adding a touch of perfection is only known from the margin of appreciation of repeating and knowing it over and over again.

-Some demand.-

This is Terminator. a repeated work a million times over in an argued process of conceiving a repeated work, derived from a known product. It's a search to fill spaces, improve environments, fill characters with three-dimensionality, empathize with the machines, hate the machines, and vice versa. Loving John Connor and hating John Connor, as every work seeks the dawn of emotions.

-Billy, your comics, Comicboon, haven't sold as expected, and sales haven't reached a good margin. The Hellboy series has found some ardent fans. I've received calls about your incredible masterpiece of the red devil and the great anticipation for the following publications. Although the idea of the Nazis is already worn out, curiously the anchoring of characters is liked. - Mike commented.

-On the other hand, Terminator has caused a sensation. But nothing out of the ordinary, it has reached a good margin of sales, but as you know, your profits are minimal. Your best-selling series hasn't managed to attract new fans, your new comics haven't increased sales of the old ones. -Mike finished by saying.

-I understand. Thank you for the report, - said Billy.

-I'll call you for the next report, - Mike commented.

-I have a quick impression, but we have progressed for the next print runs, - Billy commented.

-Just keep drawing, kid... - Mike replied.

He said no more, today, June 20th. It's almost a month, a month and sales haven't been friendly to Lux Animation, it's an expected setback, sales barely cover the bills for June, but they have 10 days, and the month of July. Which is an unknown bitter shot, it can lead to better statistics. He hung up the phone discontentedly, saw his father arrive, and had an uncomfortable look conversation.

-How is the play going? - Thomas asked, who heard the entire conversation between Billy and Mike Richardson.

-It's going well, it's a representation of the unforgettable Peter Pan, - Billy said.

-What's your role? - Father asked.

-Nothing important, some pirates part of Captain Hook's crew, - Billy said.

Peter Pan, in the United States, has been an inspiration since its first productions in Hollywood, it has been part of several commercial successes, and the box office appeal is due to the historical context itself that can even attract large audiences for its design and popular moral.

So far, it has been adapted twice in film studios, there have been different film adaptations, the first in 1924 and the second in 1953. The second became a worldwide animation classic made by Disney, which is still remembered in the 90s and still generates some commercial profits for Disney in the sale of derivatives.

-Well, you've climbed quite a bit in your skills. I've noticed some improvements in your performances in front of the mirror, it's just a matter of continuing to strive, - Thomas said.

-I know, but it's not enough. I've dedicated five long years to repeating the interpretation shots I have at home, studying famous acting methods, - Billy said.

Wow! You still have time to study acting methods! What's that thing you're doing in front of the mirror called? - Thomas questioned.

It's physical theater theory, it was developed by Jacques Lecoq in the 1950s, but it emerged earlier, it just wasn't fully established, and some theater members used it through experience and practical teaching.

At the moment, I have some ideas related to "movement dynamics", I explore different postures and movement dynamics, such as speed, resistance, tension, and relaxation all tied to my naturalness. I like to portray a pirate, well, then I have to adjust my usual movement patterns to how a pirate would. But I adjust these movements in a specific scene. - Billy stated.

-Wow! That sounds great, a lot of things I don't understand, - Thomas exclaimed.

-Just general knowledge, father, -Billy said.

-Where did you learn all this? - Thomas asked.

-In acting classes and at the county library, one of the advantages of the state of California is that artistic updates are better archived than I initially thought, perhaps going to a university library with an arts program would help me find some books I overlooked, - Billy said.

-Is it necessary for you to do all this, Billy? - Thomas asked.

-I have no idea, but if I want to appear in some movies. I have no connections, and scraping from scratch for a position in some television or film series, it is necessary to meet the requirements that producers or directors expect, who don't have a budget or are looking for hidden gems that allow their work to be realized as they expect, - Billy said.

-Hmm... I thought you would use comics as a way to promote yourself as an actor. Of course! That's why your comics are signed by the name Bill. C. And, that's the reason you don't care about the popularity of your drawings, - Thomas commented, continuing with disdain for acting.

-Father, comics serve other purposes. Expressing my artistic senses and making some money. How much money have we made in five months? - Billy debated.

-Quite a bit, more than I've earned in my 12 years as a lawyer, - Thomas said. -It still doesn't make sense, I respect you, son, but doing difficult things in your acting career for a little secrecy is contradictory. -

-Well, not so much. The exploitation we are providing to comics is negotiations that we will use to generate new lines of business. I would like to take a leap into animation, study art at a good university or academy, and open an investment channel to the real estate sector, because following a plan, - Billy said.

-Real estate sector, -Thomas asked, skeptically.

-Yes, the real estate sector. I've been thinking, here in North San Jose, of buying a good plot of land and building a spacious building that doesn't exceed five floors. And diversify our businesses. It's also good to expand throughout California, New York, and Miami, - Billy said.

-Wait, Billy, buying in New York, are you crazy? Prices are quite inflated, get your ideas grounded, - said Thomas.

-It's true, but think about it. Big cities always have greater development, and as one of the tourist destinations, it's interesting to take a piece of places that have a good future balance. At worst, we rent and sell, - said Billy.

-Change your career, study business. Someone with your vision would surely make a lot of money with some extra business basics, success is guaranteed," said Thomas.

Continuing with his knowledge rant.

-Four days ago, you proposed the idea of ​​setting up a burger business, specializing in artisanal burgers. An idea that initially contradicts chains like McDonald's, Wendy's, White Castle, Jack in the Box, and Burger King. All hamburger chains with giant productions compete on every corner in every corner of each state. How do you compete against heavy machinery... - he commented.

>>Your sensible response about using artisanal products that seek a delicate and succulent flavor above the hamburger vending machines that fast food suffers from today. A proposal for a delicious restaurant that only specializes in gourmet-style burgers. Like the new markets of vegetarians and vegans that people have overlooked, due to the new dietary trends that society now considers good. Installing vegetarian options on the menu is interesting. I recently saw an article that precisely talked about the Indian population that doesn't eat meat and the profit margin that restaurants lose by ignoring this population sector. -

>>I don't want to confront you, you know that due to the pressure from my parents, I ended up studying law at university and didn't study to be a social sciences teacher? I know how it feels, not being allowed to make your own decisions, but your business genius is evident, I feel like you're wasting your skills that could lead you to enjoy a good life, - Thomas ended up saying, the conversation was drifting.

-I have a talent for art, Dad, although I indeed have to study something related to business administration or business. It's never a bad idea to have some knowledge about how money and companies function. Art is more important than anything else! - said Billy.

In his previous life, he never had job opportunities, art consumed his body and soul, and the great offers that came were all wasted due to his lack of planning and stubbornness.

-I like it and I'll dedicate some time to it, but I would like to have more time to dedicate myself to the comics industry and acting, - said Billy.

He took a breath.

-You're not being mature, -Thomas commented.

-Listen to me, the early graduation program, taking high school degrees in two years. It requires academic intensity, but I can promote an excellence scholarship, I mean I'm a young entrepreneur and I know very well what my dedication and interests are, - said Billy.

-Ohhhhh, you plan to finish school at 16, Billy, it's quite complicated. University students live in a different kind of environment, I wouldn't agree to let you rush so much in life. People must go through processes and one of them is going to school and living your student life, - said his father.

-I understand, Dad, let me finish. I want to go to an animation academy (CalArts), the California Institute of the Arts. I'm sure that in four years I can qualify for a bachelor's degree in animation. I promise to dedicate myself to the study of animation and make it work, - said Billy.

>>>The animation fine arts program can be used as one of my main means, dedicating myself in parallel to photography or painting studies. They are closely related, and it would help me with my future ideas of bringing my comics to life in Lux Animation's animation studio. Once I'm done with that, I can easily dedicate myself to studying introductory courses in college, like social sciences and mathematics. and in four years, when I finish my animation degree. I'll be free to study administration, - said Billy.

Approaching Thomas.

-I don't like it, you're getting ahead too much, and besides, this institute is a small representation of a university focused on art. As far as I know, it's also very expensive, and a scholarship is something that only great geniuses would get, I don't doubt you, just go step by step, you have a whole life, - said Thomas.

-Are you saying I don't have a talent for drawing? What nonsense. Let's leave this conversation here, apparently, you're not much different from your parents, nothing is enough for you, - said Billy, choking up, wanting to slam the door shut with force.

-Billy, we're not finished! -Thomas shouted with a cry.
