Casting Shots

These are the two actors in our trailer that we decided to use to play the part of Noah and also of the killer. We chose them due to them being our relations and also they both have a bit of experience of acting.

Name: Harry Jackson

Character he is playing: Noah Bloom
Reason for casting: Harry is the perfect age for Noah as he is a 14 year old boy although he looks slightly older and he really enjoys acting and has past experience performing in school plays and having been to several auditions. We also knew he would act very professional and help us by following direction and doing what we asked. He didn't have to speak however we knew it was a good choice as he conveyed sadness very well. As well as this we knew he would be reliable and give up a whole day to go to London and film several shots with several outfit changes in the cold.

Name: Darryl Pitt

Character he is playing: The Killer in the flashback and also a figment of Noah's imagination
Reason for casting: Darryl has been in several independent short films over the years and also quite a few adverts including a rugby themed Powerade advert. After watching them we knew he would get into his character and also be very reliable and professional. He was willing to film in many different locations and for quite a long period of time. The character he was playing required him to look quite scary and he embraced the role and played it very well.
