Character Research

Within our production, we hope to have two main characters who are identifiable and relatable to the target audience. I have researched films of similar genre and have a cast specification for the two speaking caharacters.

Character 1:

Gender: Female
Age: 16-20 (will be playing a 17 year old.)


Character 2:

Gender: Male
Age: 15-18 (Will be playing a 15 year old, younger brother of character 1)

We want the actor and actress to look similar as they will be brother and sister in the production, they need to have some on screen chemistry and this will be judged the two actors/ actresses practising a script together. We want the girl to be the more dominant of the characters and she pushes her little brother around, getting him to do things he is unhappy doing, which will eventually lead to his demise.

*Update*

We have now found two people to act in our production, these being Rowen Elliot and Michael Walters, they matched our character specification, in the practise script, Rowen was also the more dominant of the two, we hope this occurs within our production. They also look quite similar making their acting as brother and sister believable.
