Actors/Actresses

As our narrative concerns such a serious subject, and one that has the potential to upset audience members who have been affected by it in their own lives, we feel we need to get the most experienced actor and actress we can. Frank is friendly with many of the Drama students in our school and so has made enquiries about who could help us. By chance, Drama students need as much evidence as possible of them practising their acting for their own course, and so this is seemingly a ‘perfect’ arrangement so to speak. It was therefore not difficult attracting interest.

The two students we have decided to use are Amy McGregor (middle right) and Martin Baldwin (top right), who, from watching them in action, both appear to be comfortable working with each other and so should find it easier to act out scenes of the nature we are looking to shoot. Another actor whom caught our eye was Jay Khatri, and so we approached him about being our ‘reserve’ actor, as myself and Frank both know we have busy schedules in the coming weeks and so will need to film when we are both available, meaning our first choice actors/actresses will not necessarily be available as well.

For our performance shots we have been looking out for a good looking girl who has some sort of singing background. Luckily for us, a student whom Frank works with in Art fits the bill perfectly. That student is Emma Jenkins (bottom right), so she will be the singer in our video.
