Actors in our Thriller and the Costumes

Actors

We have decided as a group to all act in our own opening sequence. Thats me- Thomas Adcock and Sophie Neil, Andrew Tinley and Josh Curran (Left to Right on the pictures above). We have decided to 'star' in it ourselves because we are all experienced in and enjoy acting plus we all took GCSE Drama and are currently studying AS Drama and Theatre Studies. Therefore the acting should be realistic and we do not have to worry about directing others who are not use to acting. Meaning we do not have to waste time- which is crucial when there is so little. In addition we are all 16/ 17 and match the target age of the victims of the killer in our thriller. We can act like normal innocent teenagers and therefore it will be realistic and hopefully the audience will empathise with them. The audience should also relate to the situation of the victims being kidnapped as this is a serious current issue in the world.

Costumes

We have decided as a group that no specific plan for costumes is needed. Because we are teenagers our own clothes will be appropriate and the clothes we will wear on the day of filming will be the costumes. We plan to film sections that go together/ slot with each other on the same day and so will not need to worry about wearing the same clothes on another day however if we don't manage this the person involved will need to remember to wear those same clothes for continuity purposes. The only real plan for costume is Josh as the killer will need to wear a black coat and a hooded jacket. This costume is what you expect a killer to wear to fit in and hide his identity.
