Reasons for picking this actor: I believe this actor fits my brief of what I was
looking for in this character. This is becausehis energy and enthusiasm towards
acting will mean that he will be able to fit his role well. His ability to adapt to
different working environments in the past for various films that he has
appeared in will enable me to be able to mold him into exactly the type of
character I want him to be. His acting ability will be crucial as it will enable him
to be able to wind up Chris so that Chris makes Ben reactand threaten him with
a knife.

Age – 17
Clothing size – Medium
Shoe size– 10
Reasons for picking this actor: Brad has been studying media since he was 13
and his passionate acting skills have been used by a variety of media students
over the years. I feel Brad will be able to deliver the role of the antagonist very
well as he can come across as quite serious and has the ability to seem as quite
a powerful individual which fits the personality of my character Ben exactly.
Also, as Brad is not in the entirety of my film it means that I will be able to fit
himin with my scheduleas hehas a busyschedulesowill only needed for a short
duration of the film.

Reasons for picking this actor: I have picked Chris as one of my main actors as
ever since he was born his love for acting has shone through. I feel like he will
fit the description of the character as Chrishas verysimilar characteristicsto the
character that I want him to play. He needs to be able to fit in the age bracket
of a young adultand he fits that, by having him this ageit means it will makethe
film look more professional. This willallow the audience to engage with the film
as they will be able to relate to this character. Furthermore, this character is a
friend of mine so will be readily available throughout the filming process.

Ryan Jewitt (Ryan)
Age – 18
Clothing size – Large
Shoe size– 10
Reasons for picking this actor: I have picked Ryan as one of my characters as I
have used him in a previous media film back 3 or 4 years ago and he did very
well in his role that I gave him. With his character having to be the sensible one
I feel like Ryan absolutely fits this brief 100%. Therefore, the acting which Ryan
will be doing should come as quite naturalto him. Ryan is a tall skinny male and
fits in verywell with the look of the 3 boys going camping together. Additionally,
Ryan can driveto the locations himself as he has his own car so it means that he
is readily available at the click of a finger.
