The document describes the actors cast in the filmmaker's gangster film. Josh Surface plays Mickey, the lead role, as he is experienced with gangster film conventions from watching many films. Courtney Fry plays Michael, given to a lesser role as he is less comfortable in front of the camera. Ben Hughes plays Tony and has a bold personality suited to the role, though scheduling conflicts made filming difficult. Jack Hodge plays a main role as Joey due to his enthusiasm for gangster films and suitable voice. Sam Hodge plays the intimidating Donny despite being unthreatening in real life, adding humor. Kyle Moxham plays the lively Ralf, modeled after his own personality though keeping his focus during scenes was challenging

1. My Actors

2. Josh Surface (Mickey)
 Josh is a twenty year old man and he plays one of the most
important characters in my film. I chose Josh to play one of
my lead roles because he has watched a lot of gangster films
and therefore accustom to the conventions of a gangster film.
 Josh also did drama at GCSE level so has experience in
acting.
 Josh also had some
useful props at his
disposal which were
useful in the production of
my film.

3. Courtney Fry (Michael)
 Courtney plays Michael in my film. He is not as comfortable
in front of the camera and therefore I decided to cast him as
one of the lesser brothers in terms of lines within my film.
 He is an extremely confident and a very out
going person which is similar to Michael’s personality.
 Courtney is a very good friend of mine and he helped me
gain useful props.

4. Ben Hughes (Tony)
 Ben is a fairly camera shy person however his bold
personality and strong figure made him the perfect actor to
play Tony in my production.
 He however is a very busy person and therefore finding time
where he was available along with everyone else at the same
time did prove difficult.
 Ben also had the perfect suit/costume which
was a very nice coincidence and is also
nfluential on my final grade.

5. Jack Hodge (Joey)
 Jack Hodge is seventeen years
old and he is also a valuable
member of my cast as he also
plays a big role in my film.
 I chose Jack to be a main
character mainly because of his
enthusiasm and he too loves
gangster films and has watched
a lot of them.
 Jack also has a very suitable
voice to play the role that is
required.
 Jack is a film fanatic.

6. Sam Hodge (Donny)
 Sam Hodge plays a very interesting role
within my film. He plays the role of the
most intimidating brother however I
chose Sam specifically as he is
probably one of the least intimidating
people I have ever met. I did this to add
a sense of humour to my film.
 He also was very enthusiastic to get
involved and Sam’s most useful
attribute is his confidence in front of the
camera.
 Sam was an ideal candidate for this
role.

7. Kyle Moxham (Ralf)
 Kyle is a very energetic person and
plays the role of Ralf. I modelled Ralf on
Kyle himself as Ralf is actually a very
lively and dynamic brother who
occasionally annoys and pesters his
older brothers.
 He is a very positive and self assured
person and he has no problem
performing in front of the camera
however he is very juvenile and getting
him to focus did prove to be a problem
during his scenes.
