Actors for my trailer





I have already chosen the three actors I want to use in my film trailer. For my main actor, the women, I have chosen to use Chloe Laskey. She has studied drama for many years and although she is only 17 I feel I will be able to look older, using both makeup and costume. She has also been in many productions and in February 2010 starred in the Glyndebourne production with Garath Malone of 'The Knight Crew'. To the right is a picture of Chloe:










To the left is a picture of Grant Peters, he is who I have chosen for my actor playing the fiancé who then turns into the stalker with split personalities. Grant is 21 and I chose to use him as I feel he will be able to play the part of both fiancé and stalker very well. Grant is also in a band which therefore means he is not afraid of acting and performing.










Finally the male I have chosen to use as the new boyfriend is called Darren Maylem. Darren is 21 and like Chloe has lots of experience with acting. He studied drama up to post A Levels and has therefore performed in many shows and performances, having to play many different roles. To the right is a picture of Darren:

Location Shots

For my trailer I want to use both outdoor and indoor shots using different lights to give a variation of effects and to show many different moods throughout my trailer.

I want the filming of the Chloe and Grant when they are originally a happy couple who are engaged and living what seems to be the perfect life to be filmed outside on a nice summer's day with blue skies and bright sunshine. I want shots of them holding hands and walking through the park as if they are on a summer's walk and both in an ideal world.

When Chloe tells Grant she can't be with him any more I want it to be filmed on a more overcast day possibly in the evening in a smaller park with alleys, steps and lots of dark corners to create an eerie feel. I also want for Chloe to act distressed and like she doesn't really know what she's doing and for Grant to be getting more and more angry as the conversation goes on.

I want shots of Chloe walking down lots of streets and not knowing what she's going to do with her life or where she's going next to be filmed in the evening but not when it's too dark to show that she's simply confused about what she's doing and where she's going. I also want shots of Chloe packing her bags in a panic as if she is in a mad rush to get out of her house and just wants to get away. I will use two different houses for my trailer as I will have shots of Chloe and Grant together in her house and then ones of Chloe and Darren in their new house together.

For the other half of my trailer when the Chloe is with her new partner Darren and finally managing to settle down I want to film inside and use a more 'homely' feel. I then want a shot of Chloe and Darren sitting on the sofa cuddled up by the fire watching a nice film and Grant just standing behind them at the window, watching them and wishing he was with her instead. Also shots of Chloe walking and trying to get away from everything but with Grant following not far behind.
