Sakura Abode Country, Catadrid City, Prime Train Station.
The station was enormous and had an extensive influx of passengers coming and going every day through the modern trains.
The Sakura Abode was an enormous country with an extensive landmass.
If someone wanted to travel between states by car, it would be needed days to cross the distance.
That's why 40 years ago, Takahashi Kimi, the president of the country at that time, implemented the construction of a Track Network covering all the states of the country.
She was the first president to implement such a huge project in the world, and her efforts paid off when by the end of her term all 33 states of the Sakura Abode Country were connected by the Rail Network.
And because of her contributions to the country, years later the Track Network was renamed with her name.
Receiving the name of Takahashi Tracks.
After these tracks were built, the Sakura Abode became even more prosperous.
Even though there were tracks and trains before the construction of the Rail Network.
With the advent of the Takahashi Tracks, all states of the country were connected!
The facilitation of transportation of goods and passengers was a huge boom for the country.
And after 40 years of modernization, all trains operating on the Takahashi Tracks had the latest technology available in the market.
Some were bullet trains and others were trains with less velocity but also modern trains.
And it was because of the Takahashi Tracks that the citizens of the country had a cheap way of traveling between the states of the country.
Traveling by train was much cheaper compared with traveling by plane.
Even though it would take longer than traveling by plane, this way was much faster than driving.
7:06 PM
The sun already disappeared from the horizon as 10 people carrying heavy bags on their backs ran towards the gate of the station.
"Come on! Faster!" One of them shouted.
"We are going to lose our train this way!" Another one exclaimed anxiously.
"Come on, guys! We cannot lose this opportunity!" A golden-haired man said with a serious voice.
The others nodded and speed up their paces when they heard this man talking, they seemed to treat him as their leader.
A while later, they saw their train and they managed to enter just before the doors closed.
They heaved a sigh of relief when they realized that they made it.
"Thank god!" One of the exclaimed with a happy smile.
Arthur Lionheart looked at his crew with shining eyes.
Now they were on a journey to find a breakthrough in their careers!
"Come on, guys. Let's find our seats." He said with a happy smile.
Arthur busied himself for the last two days.
With much difficulty, he managed to contact the nine people accompanying him.
And it was difficult because some of them were working in places without network signal, but Arthur did not give up and he managed to contact all of them
The reason why Arthur was so determined to bring these people was that he had worked with each of them before, so he knew how talented they were.
Just like Arthur, they just needed a project to make their talents more evident to everyone to see.
The ten of them walked to their seats in the economy car while talking excitedly about their trip.
The train would take 16 hours to arrive at Elffire City, so they wanted to see where they would be for the next 16 hours.
When they arrived there, they noticed their seats were next to each other.
"What a relief! I didn't want to sit next to a stranger." A woman with brown hair and freckled cheeks heaved a sigh of relief.
Her name was Kate Porter, and she worked as the Makeup Artist on the film crew.
A Makeup Artist is responsible for putting on and maintaining the makeup of the talent throughout the day. Makeup must match continuity between shots that may be filmed on different days. Makeup for films can differ greatly from makeup worn in casual life and theater performances.
That's why this position was of crucial importance to a film crew.
Kate did not manage to enter college, but she had an amazing talent for Makeup. But even after years in the industry, she had not managed to show her talents.
"I want to be by the window!" A young man exclaimed suddenly.
Everyone else shook their heads with a wry smile when they saw this boy's antics.
His name was Buddy Simpson.
He was 19 years old, and at this age, he was the youngest of them all.
Everyone else had ages ranging from 24 to 35 years old.
Arthur for example was 28 years old.
But even though, Buddy was the youngest, they all agreed that he was a talented boy.
He had amazing gift camera operations.
And Arthur managed to notice that when he saw Buddy working as a Camera Operator in one of his failed works.
A Camera Operator, often shortened to 'Cam Op', is the most important of all camera crew roles.
The Cam Op is responsible for operating the camera during the shoot. This includes locked-off static shots as well as hand-held shots or with the use of a variety of camera rigs. Steadicams are typically used by specialized operators. The Camera Operator is a part of the camera team.
Buddy came from a humble family, but Arthur noticed that even when operating simple cameras, Buddy seemed to have an intuition about the best way to shoot the scene.
And as a Director, Arthur needed Cam Op who understood what he wanted.
And Buddy was perfect for the job.
That's why Arthur spent almost half a day trying to convince Buddy's parents to allow him to travel with the crew.
They all took their seat after they placed their bags in the compartment above their heads.
"Arthur, we don't have any experience shooting music videos. Is it worth us spending so much money?" A woman with red hair asked with a serious voice.
Kanna Yei was 28 years old, she came from a normal family.
Even though they were not poor, they were not rich either.
The red-haired lady with bronze skin was a serious and practical person.
But there was one thing that she was passionate about it.
Cinema!
And that's why she chose a career in the Entertainment Industry, even though she knew that the chances of succeeding were slim.
Kanna worked as a Production Coordinator and Designer.
She knew how to work in the two functions, and she was talented in them.
A Production Coordinator works out of the production office and works to ensure that the production runs smoothly from all angles. The Production Coordinator often serves as a liaison between different departments and keeps everyone informed of changes and updates as they occur
On another hand, the Production Designer is the head of the art department. They are responsible for designing and overseeing the construction of sets as well as ensuring that sets and locations are properly dressed for shooting. Production designers are often involved in the location scouting process as well.
One day Arthur worked on the same project where Kanna worked as a Production Designer.
It was just a modest project with an almost inexistent budget.
But it was then that Arthur fell in love with the Kanna.
After being expelled by his family, Arthur started to see the world differently.
Before being banned by his family, when he looked at girls, he searched for someone with status.
But when he fell from grace, he realized how superficial he was before.
He saw that what really mattered was if the feelings were strong enough.
He loved Kanna with all his being, and she was one of the reasons he never gave up on his dreams.
At first, Kanna did not correspond to his feelings.
But after being friends for years, she also fell in love with him.
Imagine the rage of the Lionheart Family when they heard that Arthur was dating a common girl.
But they could not anything, after all, he was already banned.
And Hazel would not allow them to take drastic measures like threatening Kanna to break up with Arthur.
Arthur looked at his girlfriend with loving eyes when he saw her worried eyes.
He promised himself to make both of their dreams come true.
