Today wasn't fantastic
Wahaj was more in character during Haldi
What happened he is a little too serious, and it is not Murtasim kinda serious something is missing
He is fine in certain pics, and in certain he seemed off
Damn we are soooooo harsh aren't we
WE DEMAND PERFECTION SORRY WAHAJ
I feel so too.
I think part of it is shot selection. It is like let us choose shots that have zero MeMu signature elements.
If you look at today's shots, shots where they are both in the frame are either:
- He looks at her, she is looking elsewhere (and vice versa).
- He looks at her, we cant see her expressions (and viceversa).
- They look at each other - it's a side angle or a wideshot - so we can't see their expressions clearly.
- In only one shot, we can clearly see them looking at each other and their expressions. His look is one-note intense but lacking any inner feeling/emotion. His movements are also very basic and by the number - touch her hand, use finger to turn her face, stare. Contrast with this valima pic from TB where the micro-movements and micro-expressions adds a lot of texture to the shot (the fiddling with her sleeve, the slow slide up her forearm, what he does with the eyes). Or this other deleted scene from the MariaB ad (where his hand movements as he turns her face and pulls it away adds so much sensuality).
Given their shot selection, I think they don't want this photoshoot to look TB sensual and are being staid with the acting, looks, camera shots, etc. Or maybe they are keeping the best for the still shots.
