Character - research task
02:44Character:
In our film opening we will only include 3 characters: An older man who lives in a grand house (Voewood), a young boy who lives with his uncle who owns the house and a journalist who is writing a piece on Voewood. It is very important in a film that the characters are well suited to their role because it makes the movie more professional. For our opening 2 Minutes of film we need to ensure that our actors are well matched and their acting ability does not detract from the overall quality of the movie.
Character 1
We want to use an older man who looks eccentric. He will play the part of the owner of the house and the uncle of Herbies character. For this part we will either use My dad (Michael) who is 52 years old and is well spoken. We may also use Simon Finch the owner of Voewood this may work best because he knows most about the house. It may not work to use Simon because he has a very busy schedule.
Character 2
We also decided that we would like to use Herbie, the actor from our practice task. He is well suited the role of the young boy living in the house because he is able to adapt himself to the character. He is the right age of the character we want him to play (10 years old).
Character 3
Our final character is the journalist who has come from a magazine company to make a report on Voewood. This role will be played by a young women.
In our opening 2 minutes the audience will not find out a huge amount of information about our characters, main storyline is the house itself so its not as important for the characters to reveal too much about themselves. We don't want the characters to distract from the plot so we decided that it's unnecessary to make.
