Actors and Casting

Our group has now decided the actors we are going to use in our video, after a discussion we decided on the people who we thought would look right for the different parts and would be confident in front of a camera. We have asked our chosen actors if they would be available and willing to participate in our music video and luckily they all agreed.

We have decided that Luke Evans will be playing the part of the clown. He is a drama student therefore is confident when performing in front of people, he has also experienced main roles in both of the college productions. We chose Luke because he will appreciate what we are looking for in our music video and will not be afraid to look a little silly in front of the camera.

Joe Lacey has confirmed that he will be able to perform the role of the rich man. We chose Joe because he has had experience in school and college productions therefore will not be shy in front of the camera. Also he is able to take part on the days that we are able to film.

Rosie Turner has confirmed that she will play the part of the woman, we decided that she would be suitable for the role because she has participated in college productions, is available to film during our media lessons and will fully understand what we are looking for in our music video.

The table is a 'Time Plan' of the actors free periods. The times marked in red is when the actor are not able to film due to lessons or prior commitments. The periods marked in green are when the actor has a free period. we have created this so that each member of the group knows when we are able to film and can refer back to it. We also realise that we need some extras but we will consider this nearer to the time because organisation of groups can be difficult and unreliable. We will ask extras if they can participate a week prior to filming.

We have also created a grid contaning all of the contact information for each actor, this way we can contact them in an emergancy.
