Acting Research

                                        


Our film opening will focus mainly on a female protagonist. In the opening we will follow her journey and watch her from the outset of things. 

We have chosen Cally as our actress as we feel she fits well with the character and could be similar to Laura Johnson who we have based the narrative on.

As Cally is a white female this subverts the convention that gang members are typically male, as well as going against the view that black males were mainly featured in the London riots.  

This photograph of Cally shows clearly her eyes which we are thinking of having as a close up in our opening before a montage of riot footage. Cally has blue eyes and possible connotations of blue are tranquillity and calmness, these qualities contrast with the scenes of violence which will be seen in our montage.

  

Cally is interested in Drama and has been involved in various acting projects so is a competent actress. This is great for our film opening and hopefully would make it appear much more professional and polished. Cally is well suited to the role and we look forward to filming with her.
