Casting, why we picked the two actors we did

Casting for our media music video production we are going to need two actors one male actors and one femal actress, this is becaus in our media production we have one male and one femal part, the actor and actress we have decided to use are Flic Quinn and Jordan McDowell. We have chosen to use these two as they both did GCSE drama and got good grades, and I believe they both are now doing drama at AS level. This means that we have two people who are capable of acting, and as it is a music video the character they are playing will not be speaking parts, so they both need to be a good at improvisation and also very effective at conveying there feeling through facial and body expression rather than using words. Furthermore the characters they are playing are supposed to be good friends, this is a good thing because Flic and Jordan are good friends in real life and should be able to act the part when it comes to filming, as well as the fact that they have known each other for a while they should also be good at acting like they dislike each other and that they are both having trouble with their friendship, and of course that will be vital when filming them slipping further from each other when it comes to filming.

  1. Sadly since we could never get the two original actors we wanted free at the same time, we managed to get a perfectly good replacement for our music for the female role. WE asked Maisie East at very short notice and she was happy to fill in for Flic. To conclude this is a update to state that that we had to cast a new actor for the femal role, and the new actor is Maisie East.

  2. Pictures? Reference to existing products? This should be more detailed than the one you did for AS, not less detailed.
