How I got my actors

Before finally getting actors who were willing to be in my media, I asked a number of my friends to see if they were able to be in film as it will be less hassle for me and I would know them therefore it will be easier to direct them.

However I asked a number of my friends and most of them weren’t willing to be in my film.

Eventually I got some of my friends to be in the film but it was difficult filming them as they kept messing about and it was looking very unprofessional. I decided to go to a Yr11 drama class, where I was able to find three actors I needed for my characters.

Although the actors didn’t fit the exact description of my characters, I was able to alter my characters to instead fit the description of the actors I got.

When after I got my three actors I created a group chat on WhatsApp where we could all talk and see when was best available for us all to shoot and also decided to break down the shooting into three separate days.

Although I have finished my filming, I will need to do some reshoots with my actors in other to get more shoots types and camera angles, this will make my film/trailer look more professional
