Auditions

We held our Auditions in the drama room in our school; Canons High school. We had also filmed each person auditioning for their roles. We had each actor act out Nabil's character with Aldo (the little boy) first and then Seura (the little girl) to see which kid added humour to the scene and would be best for the role. However we could not choose between the kids and decided to involve both of them to add to the comic effect of two children ordering Nabil (a young adult) around. Consequently, we had to change the lines of the script a little and try and split the lines between the two kids. We did this very carefully and tried to think which line would suit each kid, for example we thought Aldo should say 'Hot chick' because it added to the comif effect even more, where a little boy already feels emotions for girls and judges their appearance.

In the end, we decided to choose Sajan out of all the other characters because he was not only a drama student and already had good acting skills that he would be able to portray in the film but the fact that there was something about his acting that was very exaggerated and therefore added to the comic genre.

However, due to the fact that we had a technical difficulty we could not export the videos we took at the auditions in the computer.
