I love that unparalleled video of Leon Ockenden playing Heavy Rain and getting to the first Norman chapter and stopping mid-story to go "That's my jacket. Those are my shoes!" like having had no clue they liked his audition fit so well they put literally his exact fit including the little cheek scratch from his evil ex smacking him, into his character. Imagine you show up to an audition. You can't do a rhotic R because you're British and you're auditioning for an American character, so you're kind of sweating and then have a moment of genius and you go in and do a Brooklyn accent, praying they won't ask you to try the take again without bc you literally can't---they love it so much the character is now from Brooklyn. You instantly get the part. You show up to work and do mo-cap for your PC and he fights a lot so you get on an escalator where an actor twice your size throws things at your head to simulate the motion of having things thrown at your head while fighting someone twice your size on an escalator. You do a billion lines of dialogue. You finally wrap and you sit down to play the game and load in to find your little guy is wearing your entire fit fromo your audition four years ago down to the scuff marks on your shoes.
