Casting Shots

After holding auditions for the roles of the characters we found that the following people were most suitable to their roles;

Murderer:

Jonathan Traynor

Aged 19

We chose Jonny for this role because we felt he was a suitable match to the character as he has a very alternative style and could be seen to have similar traits to the character in real life. There are certain aspects of the actors personality that he will be able to draw on in this very challenging role! He was also willing to work with us and take things seriously as he has already done his A-levels and knows how important this will be towards our final grade.

Policemen:

Thomas Miles

Aged 17

We chose this person because he has a flexible schedule and will therefore be available for filming which will be helpful when it comes to filming. He also lives near the location which will mean that filming can  be on schedule and as he studies media as well he will have an understanding of the shots and reasons for certain shots. 

Victim:

Wynmon Wong

Aged 17

We chose this person because Wynmon is in the group and will therefore know the plot well and know the shots that we have proposed to use, it is easier to use someone in the group as they would already need to be there to assist in filming etc.

Forensic:

Ella Rose Priest

Aged 16

We chose Ella because she studied drama meaning that she has had experience with performing and can be professional, which makes filming easier and efficient. She is confident with filming and good with working in groups. 

Psychiatric Nurse:

Ellen Maslin

Aged 17

We chose Ellen because takes drama A-level and will therefore be professional and already have experience in filming and acting and will therefore be able to act well and minimise the amount of mistakes/takes we may need to film in order to get the most appropriate shots.


Runner:

Layan Akkad

Aged 17

We chose Layan because she is already in our group so she will be there for filming anyway which is efficient and as she has already studied drama she is confident to perform on camera and work with others.

Any updates of casting changes will be recorded as we begin filming.
