Actors

As the theme for our film is that of a thriller the actors we use will need to bring raw elements of darkness and roughness to the film through their own personalities and image. It is also necessary that they actors live close to, or have easy access to our filming location.
We have decided to use members of our group to act within our thriller because it will be easy to oversee the filming progress and portray our ideas whilst acting; also all of the members of our group who are acting are within reasonably close vicinity of our filming location.

The main character in our film is Jess, when acting Jess tried to draw inspiration from the character Joanne in the film “London To Brighton” because she is vulnerable and lost in a dark unforgiving world. Jess also has quite a few clothes which fit her character well.

Daniel and Jordan play the other two characters in our film and suit the needs of them well because they are quite tall and have reasonably stocky builds, and this suits them to the violent and physically strong persona of the characters that they play. When filming Daniel and Jordan tried to emulate the unlawful and violent antagonists in the film “London To Brighton”. They also have dark and durable clothes such as coats and boots which share connotations with the Thriller genre and our film’s subgenre of British Gangster.
Finally all of the actors are within close range of the filming location because the CIV is very close to the school which makes for easy filming access after school and in free periods.
