After casting our actors for our filming yesterday i thought about what how their images represented their character within our short film.
Business man played by Jack Sutherland;
As you will be able to see in our film we decided to use Jack Sutherland. His attractive nature appealed to us as directors as we felt our audience would feel a sense of attachment to him on initial impressions. However, in contrast to this his personality is somewhat different. We felt this would work well with his charcter as the audience would have to question their first impression made of him, and form a different opinion. This is out of the ordinary for the normal convention, of having the protagonist as asthetically pleasing however, in our short film he can be seen in a different light due to his arrogance towards the vagrant. The business man is dressed in smart black trousers, black shoes, a white shirt & a smart navy trench coat.

Vagrant played by Theo Miller;
We thought Theo would be more than adequate to play the vagrant within our film as his innocence should create a sense of empathy between the audience and himself. His long hair could be seen as a representation of homelessness due the fact he does not take pride in his appearance in comparison to the business man. The difference in outfits also reflects the characters in alternative lights. The vagrant is dressed in old shoes without laces, ripped jeans, an old shirt, Deer Stalker hat & a plain black sleepingbag. We thought that his costume portrays his character well, after doing research of what they may where from image hosting websites.
