MEET THE TEAM :)

Ellen Bradford:

-Film Maker

-Character: Bonnie Kensington

(Femme Fatale)

This is me :)

I am so looking forward to be doing this film as media is a big interest of mine. I loved the authentic 1940's-50's black and white films as i believe they show of the conventions of this style of movie perfectly. I am the lead female character which was chosen cause of my fair hair and look etc...this is because we want our film to look as realistic as possible and in most film noir movies the femme fatale is usually blond with pale skin.

Edward Beard:

-Guest Actor

-Character: Detective John Carter

(Main Male Character)

We chose this person to be our main character because we thought he had the right look for the part, he is quite tall and lean (meaning we can part our femme fatale in high heels and he would still be taller) - this is because he has to believe he has dominance over her, even this it proves not to be true at the end. We also chose this actor because he has a lot of acting experience (also can do a very good American LA accent, which is good as this is where our film is set) as we wanted the audience to believe his character, rather than see it as a student acting.

Ben Humberstone:

-Guest Actor

-Character: Mister Bobby Dents

(Mob boss/bad guy etc)

We chose this person to be our mob boss because we believe he has the right look for the part (broad shoulders, strong look) - but also mainly because of his acting experience, the scene between him and Detective Carter is the pivotal point in our film and we want it to be perfect. He again can do the correct accent for the place and era that the movie is set in, while being able to be very convincing and slightly intimidating in his role which is exactly what we want.


Antonia Hunter:

-Film Maker

-Character: Miss Scarlett Jones

(One of Bobby's girls)

This is another one of our film makers who is really excited about the making of this movie. We decided to put her as our other female character in the film (Scarlett), she has a quite dark sultry look about her which is perfect for this part as the character is on the side of the bad mob boss; therefore shouldn't look too innocent. She is also a good actress as she plays her part with a thick accent.


Toby Fitch:

-Film Maker

-Character: Chester

(Small policeman part)

This is another member of our film making team, he was chosen as a small police man part as we think he would be really good as this part. The reason he doesn't have a main part is because he is our main photographer and camera-man because he has lots of knowledge in these fields and will be crucial in to getting the right lighting and angles to make our film perfect.
