ACTORS AND DECISIONS (GROUP TWO)

Due to convenience reasons and timing issues, we had to change our actors.  This meant we had to also re arrange the setting of our filming in order to officially suit the demands of the actors.

Carol Lyons (Playing the mother)
The actor we got to play the mother throughout our film in fact the mother of one of our group members.  This meant that we could get easy access to see when she is available and also meant that we would be able to do the filming in the house.  This was decided for both her comfort and availability.
Due to our actress being a family member of our editor, we thought it would be a better idea if we continued to use the rest of the family.  This meant that when choosing the au pair and young son, we also used family relatives.


Rhys Simms (Playing the child)
Playing the child is Rhys Simms, a pupil attending our school and the brother of our editor and the son of the actress playing the mother.  
We decided to do this so that both actors would feel comfortable in acting around each other and the availability would be extremely close in terms of the both the characters.  
Noticeably, all the actors playing roles within our film are related.  This is because it will be easy for all of them to communicate with one another. Secondly, the destination in which the filming will take place will be at their house so there will be no travel issues for the actors.
