Cast

In the film 'Gas Man' I will need four different actors, along with people to help with the lighting, camera and green screening. For all of this I ended up using 5 people, including myself. I got 3 other actors to play parts in my film, and myself doing the fourth character which has very minimal screen time. I also got one other person to then help me with the lighting and sound.

Henry: Henry is a fellow film enthusiast and is making his own films all of the time, because of this I decided he would be very experienced and would add a lot to the cast. Henry was mainly the soundman, however he also helped with directing, and filming. Henry made the task of filming much easier and took a big weight off of my shoulders, so if I were to film again in the future I would definitely try to get another person like this to help me out.

Amanda: Amanda is currently studying drama at sixth form and is a young up and coming actor. I chose for her to play the part of the second burglar. The second burglar in the film is very quiet and unconfident in everything that they are doing, because of this I chose a female to play the role, because I decided it would play on the stereotype that most have of girls. She was a very good choice to make and I think that she played the part well.

Rory: Rory is also a student at sixth form who has acted in a few short films of recent, after seeing his acting skills I decided he would be perfect for the role of the ARB unit. He has played lots of roles similar to this where he is evil and I believe he fulfilled this very well. He was very easy to work with and it was a pleasure to do so.

Ed: Ed is currently working in a theatre production as well as studying Drama at sixth form, this makes him a very experienced actor for his age. Because of his experience I chose to give him the main role in the film, burglar one. This burglar is the one which is very confident and wont give up no matter what, very often in the film he is the one leading the way. Ed played this role superbly in my opinion and you will hopefully see that in the finished production.
