Casting


An example of a great actor is Tom Hanks. His fantastic skills gained him several oscar nominations and two oscars wins. His roles include Forest Gump in the film Forest Gump, Captain Miller in Saving Private Ryan and Andrew Becket in Philadelphia. He is arguably the second greatest actor of all time, the greatest is mostly though of as Daniel Day Lewis. His roles include Lincon in the film Licon, Daniel Plainview in There Will Be Blood and finally Hawkeye in The Last Of The Mohicans. His acting skills has earned his two oscar wins as well as numerous other awards.

Obviously our actors were not as good, but overall as a group we were happy with the actors we had. What made our film more effective in terms of the acting was the dialogue, or lack of it. This made the film more effective and put less pressure on us as the directors to incorporate audio.
Our actors included Sam Evans and William Stevenson.
Sam Evans's role was the antagonist. The villain and the kidnapper. We made sure in his acting that he looked forceful. Evidence of this was when he shut the boot. He forced the boot down, giving the character an agressive personality. There was no particular scenes where we felt with Sam that didn't work, his acting was especially good.
William Stevenson role was the victim. We made sure he looked vulnerable  and scared. He did especially well on set but there was one scene in particular we found out we made a mistake in. Whilst the scene in the boot looked effective, he placed his body in the boot without the help of Sam. This scene made it look as if he was placing himself in the boot where he was meant to be unconscious. But overall we as a group were especially pleased with the quality of the acting.
