《Infinity || Dan Smith》Seventy-One.
Advertisement
Press conferences are very laid back, it's like a less stylish premiere. Only they talk about the film and don't show any footage that hasn't already been seen before, but in this case they're allowed to show the audience several clips from the first and second act of the film.
Charlie is more dressed up for the occasion tho, Dan sits in his everyday wear. The pink jumper, from Illusion's early days, and his light blue jeans. According to Charlie 'he's still looking like a dream'. It'll always be her favourite outfit.
"So we worked day and night for most scenes..." — Aubrey's voice trails off while she tries thinking about the scenes — "but we all really enjoyed filming on location...especially at the end of week one when we went to Iceland." Both Dan and Charlie smile whilst nodding her heads.
Iceland was the trip where they realised that they wanted to be more than friends, if it wasn't for Charlie's courage...then their lives would be completely different. They wouldn't be parents, their on screen chemistry would be stale and Charlie would be suffering in silence. Both would be lonely.
"So yeah, in regards to your question it was in Iceland where I was behind the camera, and I looked over at Kevin and we both was like 'woah, we're creating something mind blowing'." Aubrey then smiles whilst looking at her Lily and Liam, both of them have given her a momentous boost in popularity because of their performances from the countries that have seen a segment or two of footage.
"Is the soundtrack still a thing?" The host of the press conference asks while holding a list of questions that the audience has submitted.
Aubrey looks at Dan for him to take over, since he knows more about the situation. "Yes, the album is still going ahead. However Billie's involvement has...gone out of the window. She was free for a couple of months, but because the film got postponed, she then had to go on tour. But she's sent over the official version of 'Limbo' which we're ever excited for you to hear."

The American host, Liberty Franklin, nods her head. "Are you still going to be curating the soundtrack?" Dan then shrugs.
"I'm not going to be singing on it...so in that retrospect I'm not exactly curating it. A lot of things changed while filming and I need time out for my personal life and stuff. But I have found all of the songs, by other artists, and yeah." The host then looks interested as most of her own personal playlists are made from various film soundtracks.
"Any well known names?"
Dan smiles at her question before shrugging his shoulders back. There's a few well known artists, but they're not exactly the biggest in the music industry. The most famous name is Sia, as she is the queen of soundtracks.
"I can't tell you...but what I can tell you is that there's two sides. In my mind I wanted this to be like a vinyl, so one disc is for Liam, and the other disc is for Lily. It's a homage to their characters. Lily's playlist is more femme fatale, and the lyrics are all about power. Whereas Liam's is dramatic, the lyrics explain sadness and hopelessness. It's very cinematic." Liberty nods her head and looks in the direction of Charlie who sits on the long press table besides Dan, Aubrey, Scarlett, Kevin, and several other minor characters.
The LA press conference is a little bigger than the Comic-Con panel since majority of the cast are sitting in front of the massive audience, as well as Howie who created the character that they're portraying.
"The other day in a interview you, Charlie, said that went through cancer last year. Was that tough whilst filming Illusion?" Charlie doesn't really know how exactly to answer the question, because in her mind it's complicated.

"Yes and no. The film got postponed for me until I was a little better, so that was already hard. But in all honesty I adore Lily and Liam with all of my heart, it made me happy just being on set and in their messed up world. I know it sounds bonkers...but yeah. Illusion was my home and something I could look forward to doing when I got better, if you know what I mean?" Liberty nods her head while she then turns to Dan.
"Did you know of her diagnosis." Dan awkwardly looks at Charlie.
"He um...he was the one who called the ambulance. Without him...I don't know whether I would be here." That's when Liberty makes a sympathetic 'aw' noise, although she's a bit of a narcissist and isn't really that touched.
Charlie on the other hand smiles while trying not to tear up. Under the panels table Dan holds Charlie's hand supportively, to which she feels a little bit better.
"And the next conference you guys are going to is...Paris, right?" Aubrey nods her head.
"And then New York in two weeks, and London a day or two after for the main premiere, which will be very fun." Everyone claps at the 'premiere' part. All except from Dan and Charlie who simply smile, they both have other plans in mind for the New York leg of the press tour...
