Once they were done dancing, both Sherry and Marcel were waiting for the director to say cut but they did not hear anything. It was like the entire staff was completely mesmerised and had forgotten that they were filming.

Marcel turned his face to look at the staff in question. Holding his current position was truly difficult, especially since Sherry was bent over him.
"Aren't we done yet?" Marcel asked snapping everyone back into their senses.
"Oh, cut!" the director shouted and the cameraman that was shooting the video seemed to also come back to his senses as he was immersed in the routine from before, Once he figured out his bearings he finally stopped recording.
Sherry quickly got off of Marcel as she had started getting fl.u.s.tered from their proximity. Marcel stood up and straightened his clothes before he went to where the crew was sitting. The director was going through the footage to check if there was anything wrong with the routine.
Marcel was already pretty confident with how they had danced so he was not too worried. He just wanted to see whether they looked good on camera and whether there was enough chemistry for their movements to look as natural as possible.
Marcel went to stand behind the director's seat and watched their entire dance routine. He could only vaguely hear the director give grunts of approval as he nodded and happily.
The director thought that it would take the entire day to shoot the dance version of the song but when he saw how the routine was so perfectly executed he could not help but show a big smile.
He was especially happy with Marcel as he was aware of the camera without being obvious about it, so the angles that he was in when he was dancing were all good and he had led Sherry so she would s.h.i.+ne.
He was truly impressed with him when he lifted his head to look for Marcel he saw that he was not with the make up artist like Sherry was. He turned around to look for him and saw that he was standing right behind him.
"Good job on the dancing," the director said after reorganising his thoughts as he had just gotten a close-up view of Marcel. Marcel nodded absentmindedly as he continued to watch the video to the end.
"Director, are we going to cut out this part?" the a.s.sistant asked. The director managed to retract his gaze from Marcel to see what he was talking about and he saw the scene where he had forgotten to yell cut and Marcel reminded him. Before he could say anything Marcel chipped in.
"I think you should keep it" Marcel suggested.
"Why?" the director asked curiously. He had planned to keep the part as it had its own charm.
"Look at her" Marcel said and pointed at Sherry on the screen whose face was slightly reddened from being too close to him.
It was a part that contrasted with the persona that she was using for the song. If the part was incorporated into the video when it was posted then it would not limit her image too much. It would show that she could be s.e.xy but also be cute and bashful at the same time.
The director immediately understood what he wanted to say. If he did not, the years he spent as a director would have truly been a waste.
"Mmh" the director nodded as he looked at Sherry through the screen.
"I'll go get ready for the next take," Marcel said and before anyone could respond he had already disappeared.
"He is an interesting fellow," the director said as he watched Marcel walk to the other side of the room where the makeup artist and stylist were. He sat on the seat that Sherry had just vacated and obediently stayed still as his makeup and hair were being fixed.
He saw through the reflection that Sherry had gone to where the director was and was watching their ch.o.r.eography. He figured that she was doing it to check for mistakes and to monitor herself so he was not too worried.
He was completely unaware of the plot that was being cooked up between the two directors as they were trying to convince Sherry to do some improv at the end of the ch.o.r.eography. It was something that they had already discussed with her manager and had received the approval from higher-ups so Sherry did not have a reason to be worried.
She thought of what the two men had said but she could not help but feel a bit worried about how distracted she would be because of stressing over it.
"Don't think about it, you just have to do it once during the last take okay?" the director coaxed and before she knew it Sherry found herself nodding in agreement. The director smiled so widely it looked like his eyes would disappear into his face.
"Okay! So that's settled" he said with a clap that seemed to finalise things startling Sherry who was lost in her thoughts back into the present.
"Um, I don't think-" Sherry started but was promptly cut off.
"Are you going to go back on your word Miss Sherry?" the a.s.sistant director asked and Sherry shut her mouth immediately. She nervously bit her lip as she looked in Marcel's directions. Unfortunately he had his eyes closed as the make up artist was retouching his makeup.
