Casting

We are now going to begin the casting process, once we know the capability of our actors available to us, we will be able to storyboard to create scenes that they will be capable of performing to a high standard. In the professional industry, the casting would be completed by a casting team, a casting director would contact an agency and the agent would send forward a few selected professional individuals who fit their casting brief. They would then go to the audition where they would be put up against various other individuals from other agencies and the casting director would continue to shortlist the actors throughout a series of recalls where they would do screen tests and possibly even meet the director, and eventually the team will pick one of the actors to fulfill their role. In our media project, we do not have the budget/funding to complete the casting process in a  professional manner, although, we can find some amateur actors from local drama schools or friends we have that work in the performing arts industry who have some experience.
