Hollywood Art: System of sunnys

Since they sold Hotmail, the company organized the handover of all equipment, plans, and developments. The office was left empty, devoid of any signs that these men were the creators of Hotmail. They enjoyed a short vacation before being called back.

-For now, Billy wants us to focus on creating the company's websites: Lux Animation, Pixar, LuxToons, and Lux Games. He wants us to use all our resources to create a digital distribution platform for the Lux Games franchise. It's more complex than it sounds. We need to graduate from using Hotmail emails and security footprints to create the functionality for matchmaking servers, which means preventing online piracy - said Raimon, even confused by his own words.

-I think it's good that we make the website and start showing progress on all our games, what we offer, and why we offer it - Raimon commented, nodding. - We need a site that establishes the essence of our games and a second site for game ratings, forums, and video game culture news.

-I see… sounds cumbersome -commented Aron Walter, a senior programmer and one of the key figures alongside Terry Brooks.

Video games don't have as large a culture as other mediums. Television is satisfying on its own, but now, with good reach and management, we can start the websites much earlier and begin promoting our series from the get-go. Just entering the American market is enough. The purchase of multiple domains was made just over half a year ago, with at least fifty domains containing the word "Lux."

-So, we should first create the video game website, put the products on the table, and categorize each product by the game development company - asked Terry Brooks.

-Something like that, but you need multiple ways to navigate. The key is simplicity and the web navigation journey. If you can use quick jumps and attract people with images and design -Raimon commented.

-Design only takes us so far. We'll use JavaScript, which is the best in the market, and integrate various libraries. It's complex to develop the whole site without established frameworks. We'll do what we can. It's always good to use the latest tech and leave room for updates. A few bugs and hooks allow us to open the codes for tweaks and improve the design incrementally - Aron Walter replied.

Websites are now a complex topic, loaded with many intricacies. Using basic programming systems, which may not seem advanced but are, they employ imagination and connections to provide quick responses or various programs for creating a site. Web design is now being baptized to separate design from creation, fitting the issue at hand. It's not a booming market, but expansion has led to considering many things.

-Ahhhhh, it sounds more unsatisfying than email -commented Terry.

-Let's wait for the email to develop. For now, the chat function is archaic, but it's being developed by Bill Gates. We only care about the features that we will eventually bring to our work to create our companies - muttered Raimon, advancing through all systems. The drawings provided by the design team and Billy's foundations were all grouped. They even considered creating Lux Comics to integrate an online comic service, selecting the quantity for stores and retail users. Creating their comic library was the basic service, offering something the market currently lacked.

The heat was unbearable, and it showed on some of the cameramen. Now wearing a suit, he decided to open it and use the tie only when necessary. He hoped that wouldn't be anytime soon. The heat was insufferable, but nothing a good glass of lemonade couldn't fix, or so the directors said. They had shot multiple scenes, but it seemed they had extended their time and would be doing at least 150 takes to give a brilliant course. This was a lot, considering some takes were almost ten minutes long, but of course, those takes were meant to be handled by great actors like Billy, Kevin Spacey, and Samuel.

-Hahaha, I accepted the role of Mace Windu out of honor. My daughter would kill me if I wasn't the first Black Jedi in the series - Samuel murmured with a laugh. - By the way, I liked the purple lightsaber; it matches my eyes.

-When I suggested you for the role, I did it because who else could play a stern religious inquisitor who follows the rules and still looks tough? - Billy responded, earning a laugh from Samuel, who was a man of easy smiles and strength, despite being dressed in what one might call peasant attire. His aura was distinct, especially when he got into character.

Scene 21, Take 1.

At a table near the window, close to Jake, three sheriff's deputies were chatting among themselves. The burliest, Deputy Prather, turned his head and asked loudly,

—Hey Jake, didn't you defend Billy Ray Cobb two years ago? —Prather asked.

A deep silence fell, the question serving as a way to bring the scene to a profound depth, something that was stirring the community. Billy lifted his head and set his jaw.

—Billy Ray Cobb —Billy/Jake repeated aloud. —What was it about?

—Drugs. We caught him selling drugs about four years ago. He was locked up in Parchman and got out last year —Prather commented.

—No, I didn't defend him. I think he was represented by a lawyer from Memphis —Jake/Billy commented.

Everyone nodded in satisfaction.

—Why? What happened now? —Jake asked.

—We arrested him last night for rape —Prather commented.

—Rape? —Billy questioned, raising his eyebrows. Jake was a good lawyer and a good man.

—Yeah, he and Pete Willard.

—Who did they rape? —Jake/Billy asked, perplexed by everything that had happened and even more so by the case. A thorn started to prick; the atmosphere was suffocating.

—Remember a Black man named Hailey whom you saved from a murder charge a few years ago? —Prather commented.

—Lester Hailey, of course, I remember him. -

—You know his brother Carl Lee. -

—Of course. I know him quite well. I know all the Haileys; I've represented several of them —Billy/Jake commented.

—Well, it’s his youngest daughter —replied the officer beside Prather, who had a thick black mustache shaped like a comb.

—You're kidding. -

—No.-

—How old is she? —Billy asked.

—Ten years old. -

-Cut - the director murmured. Reviewing the tapes, everything was perfect until Prather's hat fell off his head as he adjusted his hair, breaking the magic of the scene.

-We’ll do another take. Watch your head - the director commented.
