Actors (Story).

To choose actors for our story we asked our friends. We did this as they are a similar age to our target audience and we wanted to appeal to them. We couldn't find a girl who was willing to act in our film and instead of wasting valuable time searching for an actor we decided we would volunteer to be in it ourselves. This will also be good for our group as we know that we will be reliable and turn up when we need to film.
For the main boy in our film we chose our close friend Sam Wilkinson. From a previous project he had done we knew that he would be serious and dedicated. He also studies media so he knows how stressful it can be and how important it is to get decent clips. I will be playing the role of the ex-girlfriend which Sam wants to be back with and my other group member Lauren will be his new girlfriend.

We decided on some outfits for our actors to wear. We had already decided that we would be filming different scenes to look like different times and different locations. We wanted some memory scenes of when me and Sam were together but we wanted it to look like a different season to show the transition of time. To show this we decided to make our actors wear summery clothes for the past and wintery clothes for the present.
We already knew that three out of the five members have a clothing line and I have a few shirts from bassist Matt Barnes' clothing line Cheer Up! so we thought it might be effective to include one of our actors in an item of clothing from this line. (http://www.cheerupclothing.com/)
