My Actors.

Aimee Shingfield:
I chose Aimee because she has had a lot of experience in acting before, she's done both GCSE and Alevel drama, as well as doing a lot of drama outside of school. I wanted to choose someone that I knew was a very able actress so that I could direct her and she would know how to comply. The part of the girl has quite a lot of subtext which isn't going to be obviously shown in the film. Aimee will hopefully be able to get a grasp of what i'm trying to get accross. I wanted a girl with blonde hair and blue eyes, to try and play on the stereotypes of school girls that care about their image.

Jordan Giles:

Jordy was the first person I thought of when I was writing the script for my short film. Jordy has always had an interest in drama and has taken A-level media, therefore has an interest in film. I have used him before in a few things in media and he's a very capable actor. He know's exactly what it's like to deal with the pressures of filming and repeating things over and over, so he will be a good candidate. I think Jordy will bring a lot of truth because I know he's dealing with some of the issues that i've included subtextually within my film; such as what to do when leaving school etc. I wanted to use someone that could relate to the character, so its more than just actors mindlessly playing a part. He may even be able to give me some imput, which would be incredibly helpful.
