Finalised Character Profiles

After much discussion into how we want our actors to look and be we have finally compiled a conclusive character profile of each:

Matt (Amir Yahari)

Matt is the self styled leader of the group. He is a very confident individual believeing he is popular and generally cool eventhough this may not be the case. A slighly arrogant and cocky character, we wanted this to come across in the way he walked so we asked him to try and incorporate this into his facial expression and how he walked.

Ashley (Michael Wilson)

Ashley is the most 'streetwise' of the group. He is into his style and has the belief he is better than the other people in the group. We gave him a slight attitude to further the idea that he is better than the rest of them, when in fact he would be lost without the rest of the group. We wanted him to walk as though he were better than the rest of the group and further this by the filthy look he gives to the other members.

Fenton (Sam Humby)

Fenton is the character that we wanted to stay away from the rivalry between Matt and Ashley. He is the least streetwise of the group and his priorities lie solely with science. He is in his own little world and doesnt care about materialistic things. We wanted his character to be a bit confused and nerd like which we feel was represented in his costume and how he walked the corridoor.

Daniel (Craig Forster)

 

Daniel is the clumsiest of the group and seen by the others as a bit of a joke. We wanted this to come acorss to the audience so we asked him to mess his hair a little and incorporate a few stumbles into his walk. We also wanted our opening scenes to start with him sumbling and falling as to really establish his character.

The characters together do make for a dysfunctional group but thats where we wanted the humour tocome from. They are all friends because of their one common interest science, that and the fact they had no ther choice.
