Planning: Casting for our opening

For our opening 2 minutes of our Horror film, we currently have 4 actors which are needed but we have considered a range of different people who can play these roles. The roles which are needed to be acted are the victim, the mysterious killer, Jordan and Jordan's friend.

The most important role in the opening 2 minutes will be Jordan as he is the main character and the camera is mostly on him, we are hoping we get an actor which can show fear and can stay serious throughout filming. The least important role is the part of Jordan's friend, his/her part will be around 5 seconds long and consists of making Jordan scared. This role can be practically played by anyone but we will make sure we pick a person who can act professionally through filming.

The following people are those which we are considering to play these roles...

Jordan Bignell
Sex: Male

Age: 17

Acting history: Small part in christmas play 2005.

He is most likely to get of Jordan as not a lot of skills to do with acting will be needed as he will just be walking home he will just need to give of facial expressions and hardly any speech is needed, and he will most likely have a lot of free time which would be useful and he is easily accessible 



Josh Luthayi
Sex: Male

Age; 16

Acting history:  Studied Drama in GCSE

Josh is most likely to get the victim role as he has had drama experiences and they will defiantly be needed especially facial features as he will be bound and something around his face to stop him speaking also he is also easily accessible 



Tom Bates
Sex: Male

Age: 16

Acting history: Studied Drama in GCSE and currently studies it for A-Level.
Tom would be available for the role of the killer or the victim because of his acting experience also he is quite accessible  





  
George Hopkins
Sex: Male

Age: 17

Acting history: Studied Drama in GCSE and currently studies it for A-Level.
George is possibly available for the friend role as it is a very short part also he is not that accessible also he has acting experience. 





Jamie Oliver
Sex: Male

Age: 16
