Italiano“Odoru〜 Koi no Furai de〜♫ Kimi ga〜 ma〜gire〜♫･･･ “ (Koi no FRIDAY)
Beep…
Yes, hello.
Ah, big bro,
happy belated birthday to you.
Looks like you had quite a lot of fun.
Sorry,
I couldn’t make it because of work.
Eh?
“By the way, GACKT.
I saw something in the news online.
You’re doing another movie?”
… you say.
Yes,
we’ll be filming in Okinawa.
The contents of the work got me interested too but,
more than anything,
if I could contribute
back to Okinawa through this…
Thinking of that, I accepted the job.
Anyway, I’ll do what I can
as much as I can.
Since I too have no idea
how this work will eventually turn out.
Please look forward to it.
“Is working on a movie tough?”
… you ask…
Mm…
for dramas they have lots of plus points but,
producing a movie is more enjoyable to me.
Especially when we’re always staying out at filming locations
various things will come to mind,
besides, on the whole the way time is used is different.
“What do you mean by that?”
Eh…
Comparing a drama to a movie,
there’s an overwhelmingly larger amount of script for movies.
Because instead of using it to show a certain situation
most of it is used to have progression through conversation.
That’s why,
even for actors, dramas are tough.
Furthermore,
filming time stretches from morning until night
and their time is constantly stuck there.
For movies,
it takes time to set things up too,
so actors
often can use that spare time
to do their own stuff.
Besides,
we’re not really chased for lines.
Well,
when I was doing it in Hollywood,
because everything was in English
it was so tough that it was killing me.
“Heh〜, is that so.
Ah, come to think of I saw it on YouTube!
That MAX-something!!”
you say…
Thank you.
That YouTube movie too
was supposed to tie up my time for a long day but
that was filmed in two days.
We were filming at a frightening momentum.
Because we had no time.
“You can film for such a movie in 2 days?”
… you say.
This time,
because I’m guest starring out of friendship,
my appearance was short.
That’s why I finished in 2 days.
“Ah, come to think of it,
Yuuki-kun made an appearance too right?”
… you say…
Yes,
the Kimisawa Yuuki who I introduced previously,
also made a guest appearance in this movie.
That guy,
also had fun filming it.
“Despite that, doing it in 2 days is amazing”
… you say… …
But,
preparations took quite an amount of time.
Before filming they have to adjust the costume,
adjust the image.
“As expected setting up takes up time”
… you say…
Yes. It takes up quite a lot of time.
But,
if the setup is done properly,
the progression after that can go quite well so.
“By the way,
are you in rehearsals now?”
I haven’t started rehearsals yet.
This time throughout my stay in Japan
I’ve been filming footage to be used in the LAST VISUALIVE.
Eh?
“Do you have to use so many videos for your live?”
… you say.
Yes, I use quite a lot of it.
Because this time I’m tying together the story of Yoshitsune,
I’m filming those videos too.
That’s really tough.
Everyday,
we’re filming from morning until the middle of the night.
As my health is also broken
its quite a tough continuous shoot.
But,
it’s fun.
I was able to meet with a lot of other cast members for the first time after a long time too.
“What kind of live will it be??”
… you ask.
