Discussing Actors

We had previously discussed actors in the initial planning stages of our product as it was important to know how many willing actors we could realistically get access too. We are now almost ready to begin production, so we have made a final video summarising who our actors are going to be. In order to make our production process as easy and successful as possible, we wanted to keep the number of actors we were going to use to a minimum. If we use an excessive amount of actors, this would have introduced more complications in terms of pinning down a couple of days that everyone would be free, and getting everyone to the same location. For example, two of our group members are going to be three of the characters, which will make it much much easier when it comes to filming. We then only have two other actors to consider, which is a lot easier than having to consider another 5-10. We also ensured that at least one of our group could drive and have a car, to resolve any transport issues.
