Chapter 1010 Character Reveal
After returning to the apartment building, Aiko Gojo returned to her peaceful life of going to school and doing training every day.
However, as the holiday approaches, there is an additional daily routine of rehearsing a stage play.
The script that every stage actor gets will contain much more than the plot summary they see at the beginning.
For example, although the astrologer and the priest are villains, the plot summary does not explicitly state that they are bad guys at the beginning. It is not until they do bad things that everyone realizes that they are bad guys.
But in a real stage play performance, some special lines and situations are needed to show the audience some of the villain's characteristics so that the audience can understand that there is something wrong with these two characters.
For example, designing clothes with colors that are commonly used on villains in the public concept, or using some heavy and bright makeup, as well as arrogant or treacherous expressions, etc.
The astrologer played by Aiko Gojo is an exotic woman wearing a dark purple and black sari, a black veil on her head, barefoot and wearing bell anklets.
Moreover, she wore various crystal jewels on her head, body, and hands. In short, she looked very mysterious.
Aiko Gojo will also wear red contact lenses to cover her original golden eyes.
Because gold doesn't give people a very villainous feeling, and in a stage play, some elements with more prominent features are always used to give people an intuitive feeling. Elements such as contrast and reversal are not suitable for use in this kind of place.
At that time, her makeup will be as dark as possible. The makeup for stage plays must be very heavy, because when the spotlight is turned on, everything will look very white and bright. The originally heavy makeup will be just right because it is too bright. If you wear light makeup, it will be the same as not wearing any makeup.
Another heavyweight villain is the priest played by Geto Suguru. His appearance and temperament are not particularly holy, especially his squinty eyes.
If he were to play a monk or priest, his temperament might be suitable, but it would be a bit strange for him to play a priest. However, it fits his identity as a villain.
Because Geto Suguru is a priest, he is not as free as the astrologer in terms of makeup. He is a priest, so of course he can only wear fixed clothes.
But he can take off his hat and play with his hairstyle.
His original hairstyle was actually quite stylish, but the stylist gave him a long wavy hairstyle.
When the time comes, curl his hair into small waves, which makes him look more casual and unrestrained.
This is also to slightly cover up his original somewhat bad look. After all, with a bun on his head, he always looks like a bad boy.
The two of them also have special designs for the lines.
For example, when a more positive character speaks his lines, it is best if they are full of energy, just like the male protagonist in the classic hot-blooded comic book.
And when the villain speaks his lines, it’s better to be a little different, with a more “hooky” or somber tone.
Gojo Aiko plays opposite Naruto and Sasuke every day, especially Sasuke, who was unlucky enough to draw the princess, one of the protagonists. Not only was he the protagonist, but he also had to play a reverse role.
And there is also a slight height difference between Sasuke and Kise Ryouta who plays the prince...
I hope that by then people won't be confused as to why the prince and princess look so different in age...
Prince Kise Ryouta often comes to act with us, but he always laughs. Fortunately, the prince in the script himself has a funny temperament.
Although the looks of each character have been designed and even the costumes have been made long ago, their makeup has not actually been made public.
In other words, you have no idea what other people’s makeup looks like, you can only know what your own makeup looks like.
Obviously, everyone is very curious about the makeup of those cross-dressing characters.
In order to prevent everyone from laughing when they see the cross-dressing characters on the scene, Atobe Keigo released everyone's makeup photos before the holiday.
Naruto was smiling as he looked for Sasuke in the final photo. The first ones were the prince and princess, the protagonists, so he didn't even have to look for them.
only……
"Is this Sasuke?!" Naruto couldn't believe it!
He recognized that this prince was Kise's brother. Although he didn't know why he looked a little sparkling, he was definitely Kise Ryouta!
But this black-haired princess next to him... is this Sasuke?!
Sasuke has long straight black hair and a jewel-shaped forehead ornament on his forehead, which refers to a crown.
If you really wear a crown during a performance like a stage play that requires big movements, the crown will easily fall off.
Moreover, the crown has weight. If you use cheap plastic or other materials instead, it will appear to lack texture. If it is really made of metal, the weight will also be a burden for the actors.
So except for the king and queen who performed on the throne at the beginning and end, the prince and princess used other headdresses instead of crowns.
Sasuke's is a jewel forehead ornament, and Kise Ryouta's is a feather hair ornament.
The prince's makeup is mainly blue and yellow, which matches Kise Ryouta's yellow hair.
The princess's makeup is mainly purple and white, which matches Sasuke's black hair.
The prince's look is very typical, with a cape.
The princess’s style is not the traditional puffy skirt, because she needs to find the scepter and fight like the prince, so she wears a skirt similar to a riding skirt and boots.
It's normal that Naruto couldn't recognize Sasuke. Not to mention the cross-dressing, just growing his hair long would make it easy for people to unrecognize him.
After all, if you are used to short hair, you will feel uncomfortable if it suddenly becomes long hair, and vice versa.
Not to mention that makeup is used to soften facial features, and the facial expressions are also different from normal times.
However, what really surprised people was not Sasuke's makeup, because although Sasuke played a cross-dressing role, there was not much change overall.
What is really shocking is Keigo Atobe’s queen!
