Chapter 378 Preparations And Rehearsal

Pedrarruna Manor, Elffire City.

Theo and Aurora placed the dishes he had just cooked on the dining table before taking their seats.

"What about your live performance later?" Aurora asked as she put some food on her plate.

"I will perform in the sound studio. All the necessary equipment is there anyways. I already asked Sylph to clean and tidy the place for the performance. After I finish having dinner, I'll take a shower and immediately after I'll arrange the place for the performance. I'll also rehearse a few songs. I haven't decided which song I will perform yet." Theo commented as he also put some food on his plate.

"Can I help you and watch you perform, Big Brother?" Aurora asked with an excited look on her face.

Even though she had already seen Theo singing, it would be her first time seeing him perform. And it would be starkly different from the times she saw him singing.

"Of course! I'd be glad to have you there with me. You can watch me from the editing room." Theo replied with a gentle smile.

"Yay!" Aurora commemorated.

The dinner went on as the two of them discussed which song Theo should perform later.

Each song from his album was a masterpiece from his past life, so they all could be performed and the public would love whichever one Theo chose to perform.

When they finished eating, the two of them immediately left the dining table. Theo headed to his bedroom to take a shower and change clothes, and Aurora headed to the sound studio in the manor.

A while later, Theo appeared in the sound studio wearing comfy clothes. There were still some hours before the Nancy Nicholson Show would air, so he didn't have to dress up as Moonlight yet.

As soon as he entered the studio, he noticed some drones and lighting equipment by the side of the studio.

He would first set up the place for the show.

With Aurora's help, Theo set up the lighting around the place where he would perform. He also took care of the microphone and guitar he would use during the performance.

With that done, Theo sat by the computer in the editing room and started setting some computer codes in it. He was basically 'talking' with Sylph and explaining to her how she could operate the cameras of the drones during the performance.

pαпdα-ňᴏνê|·сóМ Things like not letting the other drones appear on the screen, their positions, movements, and other settings.

As Sylph was an artificial intelligence, the best way to explain things to her was through computer coding, and Theo was knowledgeable enough in it to be able to 'talk' with her with it.

After this was done, it was time to rehearse the songs and pick one of them.

The rehearsal was not only to see which song was better to perform but also to test the camera work that Sylph would command.

Sylph would be basically the director of the shooting as she would command all the camera work and settings of the shooting. As she would transmit the performance live to the Nancy Nicholson show, she had to be agile and skillful in her work. That's why Theo wanted to see if there were anything that needed to be adjusted.

Theo put it on an earpiece to hear the final sound and positioned himself in front of the microphone. He took the acoustic guitar's shoulder strap on, and he was ready to start the rehearsal and test the sound.

Firstly, Theo tested the sound of the microphone, guitar, and other features he would use in the performance. After he adjusted everything with Sylph's help, he was ready to start the rehearsal.

Aurora had an excited expression as she waited for her brother to start performing. She was in the editing room watching him through the glass wall.

"Sylph, let's start the shooting." Theo's voice could be heard in the editing room.

And as soon as he said that, Aurora saw the drones, that previously were on standby, taking flight in the recording room where Theo was at.

Their technology was so advanced that they didn't make any sound as they flew around Theo. Sylph was already commanding them through the pattern that Theo taught her.

By the side of the editing room was a huge screen, and Sylph projected the image that was being recorded by the drones to the screen for Aurora to see.

Aurora was able to watch her brother through the glass wall and on the screen.

"Okay, let's start. I'm gonna start with 'The Scientist'." Theo said after seeing that the drones were working perfectly to film him.

Theo started softly playing the guitar the chords of the song's intro.

His skillful hands played the guitar beautifully before his mellow and soothing voice started to sing the song lyrics.

Theo forgot the cameras filming him for a moment and just concentrated on the song that he was playing. He just wanted to perform a good rehearsal. He did not feel anything special at that moment.

But as Aurora watched his rehearsal, she became entranced by it.

She watched through the screen on the wall, and she had to admit that her brother did an amazing job with filming settings.

Theo was in the center of the image surrounded by warm lights that made the place look extremely comfy and suitable for a serenade.

Aurora was sure that the public would love the image on the screen. Especially with Theo's magnetic voice singing so beautifully his song.

A few minutes later, Theo finished his performance before saying, "Okay, Sylph, stop the recording."

He put down the guitar and walked out of the studio, he entered the editing room to see the result of Sylph's camera work.

"Oh my god, big brother! It was so beautiful!" Aurora exclaimed when she saw him coming in.

"Thank you!" Theo laughed heartily before he sat by the computer and started watching the recording.

His analytical and sharp eyes watched the video with critical eyes as he noted down what needed to be adjusted.

After he identified all mistakes, Theo started coding on the computer and 'talking' with Sylph about what needed to be adjusted.

Things like the height of the drone's flight when they filmed him, their movement, and other things.

When he was done 'talking' with her, he believed that she would not commit any other mistakes. After all, she was an artificial intelligence and it was given that she had a high learning capability.

And just like he expected, when he performed the other songs, he was not able to find any mistakes in her work. She had become a qualified director. At least in that situation.

The only thing left to be done was to choose which song he would perform.

After Theo sang all 10 songs of the album, he sat down with Aurora and tried to choose which one would make it to the final cut.

Which one would it be?
