When choosing our cast, there were three key thing that we were looking for; reliability, performance skill and the correct representations. We have had quite a few different people interested in the role, however the nature of the project is very demanding and there is a strong need for flexibility, especially when we will be filming on the the rooftop. As a result, we felt that a lot of the potential actors would not be suitable.
Jacob Blewett, a classmate of ours, was one of our initial actors. He performed in one of the music videos last year, meaning he was already well trained to act convincingly. Unfortunately, after having multiple conversations with Jacob, we have decided not to use him. This was due to commitment issues that we felt would complicate our shoots as well as his other work.
We have now decided upon all of our actors and I have created the table below which denotes who we picked, why we picked them and the references that have inspired their look. As can be seen below, we have carefully considered each actor and their potential for the role
I am very happy with our final cast list, and I think that we will all be able create an interesting and dynamic performance.
