For our auditions in order to acquire the right actors we will hold simple visual auditions. Considering our film opening feature little to none dialogue, it would be pointless to base the character around how they speak or how good they are at acting. We felt it was more important to judge it based upon how they look and if they were fir for the role. These reasons meant we auditioned 3 people for each role who fit the criteria. Reasons for choosing our actors are that the first character needs to be tall and slim. This would allow us to have the look of a formal man. All this character would have to do was be able to move adequately, this meant for the auditions we trialled them for the roles they would play in the film. Including sitting down, walking and opening doors to see how natural their movement was.
The second character required no more than to look like a school student who was doing their day to day studies. Reasons for choosing a person like this is for them to be able to mix in as someone from that age. The best way to do it was to use an actor who was in education because it would fit the plot.
