Just Moving On

While thinktanks have spent time analyzing possible career strategies for talents, sometimes the best intentions do not deliver the desired results as time passes. Hence, hard as it may be to admit, failure has to be accepted and a new plan has to be drawn for a talent who has so much potential.

Sometime ago, Network Talent (NT) was nearing the peak of her career. She was very talented and versatile. NT is any networks dream, as she could act, sing, and dance. Most of all, she knew the ins and outs of the entertainment industry. To top it all, she had a steady fanbase. NT had all the elements that would make propel her foothold in the roster of talents of the network. Then, the bubble burst.

While NT was doing well in her partnership with Budding Celebrity (BC), her handlers thought she ought to be partnered with Hotshot Performer (HP). HP was cool and interesting. Like NT, he had his own loyal followers who were excited to see him perform with someone like NT. In a snap, BC was dropped and left with no projects. By contrast, NT started working with HP.

The move to give the partnership of NT and HP a chance was a risky one. At first, the two were well-received by fans and so much was expected from them. Then, the projects came. Their first venture as leads and the succeeding ones did not perform as expected. In a highly competitive network, where one miss can alter everything, the camps of NT and HP realized the careers of the two were on the line. Months passed and no news was heard if they would have any project together.

Circumstances are unkind and sooner than expected, NT and HP needed to go separate ways. NT’s camp had to think fast, as fans can easily change allegiance if they do not see their idols often. Then, everyone turned their eyes on BC. Quietly, BC was moving on in his career. He was back to his first love and gaining recognition. It was only a matter of time for him to be back on screen more often. BC was told that NT needed him again. The move to rekindle the partnership of BC and NT started rolling. The kindness of BC’s heart was moved and he agreed with the decision of the management. Hopefully, this time, NT’s career would once again soar and this time, with the right partner in BC.
