Chapter 274: Talent Agents and Magazines

"I talked with Helena yesterday, and she told me that she would be moving over to Catadrid this next week." Kate replied.

"Really? That's exciting!" Arabella smiled.

"What about Ishii?" Buddy asked.

"Ishii called me asking for help as his situation is more complicated than Helena's. He has a sick grandma that he has to care for. So, he asked for my help for the safe moving of his grandma. Then I passed him the number of a buddy of mine who can take care of everything for him." Arthur replied.

Even though he was expelled from his family, he still had some contacts of people who could help him in times of need.

"He said that he would come to Catadrid in the next two weeks." Arthur added.

"That's amazing! We should go out together when they arrive." Buddy said with an excited voice.

The others quickly agreed with smiles on their faces, they all had become closer to each other after working together for Moonlight.

"They should get an agent to manage their careers. A good and trustworthy agent. We all know there are troves of bad agents out there." Kaitlyn commented.

"Does anyone know a good agent?" Kate asked.

They all had thoughtful faces as they tried to remember any trustworthy agent they might know.

As their friendship with Helena and Ishii became closer, they saw themselves as their guardians, so they were worried that a bad agent would mess with Helena and Ishii's careers.

Sure, significant others are lovely—but for actors, perhaps no relationship is more crucial than the one with their talent agent. This is the person who acts as their personal representative to the industry at large, whether it's Newfall (Hollywood) or anything in between. If that sounds like a big deal, that's because it is! Getting a good agent can be the difference between moderate success and a true celebrity.

A talent agent finds jobs for the actors (or authors, athletes, musicians, models, etc.) they represent. More specifically, acting agents submit their clients for auditions, pitch them for roles, follow up on submissions and auditions, negotiate better pay and contracts, and renegotiate existing contracts.

A good agent is one who's personally and sincerely invested in your career as an actor. They pitch you for all the roles you're right for, generate auditions, and advocate on your behalf.

Talent agents, acting agents, or "agents for actors" are the people who make sure that instead of staring at directors and actors through a misted studio glass door, one eye on them and one ear pressed to the cold glass, the actor/actress actually in the studio giving it your all in an audition.

Talent agents juggle several different tasks for the actor, including legal representation (e.g. when signing a contract), plus introducing the actor/actress to other people in the business. This latter part is of particular importance, as in the acting industry, knowledge is king, and experience is something most established agents have in abundance.

For these reasons we can all see that the majority of the great actors and actresses had agents working for them.

And if Helena and Ishii wanted to be successful in their acting careers, they would need acting agents to introduce them to the big shots in the industry.

But that aroused a problem, the trust between actor and agent had to be high for the safety of the artist.

The artist had to trust enough the agent to know that he would not be put in embarrassing and troubled situations.

And the agent had to be trustworthy enough to protect the artist against bad people.

That's why Arthur and the others had trouble finding a trustworthy agent for Helena and Ishii.

Their work did not involve talent agencies so much, so they did not know any agent enough to know if any of them was trustworthy.

"Hmm, I'll call my cousin. I think she might know a good and trustworthy agent." Arthur finally said.

If he still had contact with his family, he would be able to find a trustworthy agent without any problems with his family connections, but now that he was on his own he needed to count on Ayia's help.

He was sure that she would be able to get a trustworthy agent for their friend without any problems.

"Oh, Ayia-san? If it is her, I believe she can. After all, how can someone who manages an artist like Moonlight be simple?" Kate said with a relieved voice.

The others also expressed their agreement.

The ten of them continued their lunch as they discussed which channels they would give interviews to and what they would say.

In the end, they decided on two channels, one was one of the biggest magazines in the music industry, Destiny.

Destiny was a magazine that specialized in news and reports about the music industry, it was a serious and professional channel.

The other was Wonder Magazine, a magazine that had more freedom to write anything they wanted about famous people, with the sudden success of Moonlight, they were in thirst for information about him. And even though they were not as serious as Destiny's magazine, they had a huge public following their news on social media.

Arthur and the other's idea was to give a serious interview to Destiny's magazine. And they would give a more relaxed interview to Wonder magazine.

One would serve to give a professional approach and the other would fuel the gossip and mysteriousness around Moonlight.

They did not waste time and after finishing eating their lunch, they answered the emails from the two magazines.

And to their surprise, in less than 30 minutes, they received their answer asking if they were available for the interview that same day.

Although they knew how hyped the internet was with Moonlight, they still had no idea that everyone was almost going crazy without being able to get any concrete news about him, so when the newsroom of the two magazines became aware that the production team who worked with Moonlight accepted their invite, they could not wait to talk with them.

In an age where everyone knew everything about everyone, it was extremely odd to face a situation of an artist so obscure that no one even knew his real name or his face.

Arthur scheduled the two interviews for later that day.

In the afternoon they talked with Destiny magazine, and at night they talked with Wonder magazine.

And just like they imagined, the interview with Destiny magazine was much more professional, while the interviewer from Wonder magazine was much more interested in gossip related to Moonlight.

They did their work beautifully to hype Moonlight even more than he already was hyped.

The interviewers also said that the interview would be put on the internet by tomorrow.

They could not wait to see the impact of their interview on the public.

But while Arthur and the others were helping Theo become even more famous that Sunday, he was having a completely different type of day.
