Ultimately, all of the actors and actresses above were chosen as they themselves wanted to be a part of our film, they were not specially selected due to their acting talents. A few rehearsals were done to see if they're were acceptable to be a part of our movie and they all passed as they were able to act and remember their lines from the script without hesitation. For more information on the the actors/actresses role in our film please see the shooting schedule.
The Final Product (Planning Development)
In our final product, the decision over actors was that only the actors named "Rosalyn" and "Francis" would make the final cut, and the actors playing as revolutionaries and their entire scene altogether would be cut from the final product. This was because after watching the draft version of our film "The Enemy Unknown" we realised that too much attention was being diverted from the two main characters and of the film. And we thought the audience wouldn't be able to connect effectively with the characters and understand them in such a short period of time. In addition we found that based on the conventions of previous films analyzed that not much footage was given in the first opening two minutes, and we were mainly just getting introduced to the main character(s) of the film. This is why we decided to cut the revolutionaries part of the story meaning that none of them would be shown in the final product as this way we would not be giving away too much in the beginning, and we would also be emphasizing the type of characters played by both "Rosalyn" an "Francis" and their relationship which would be perceived as stronger by the audience than our previous attempt at the film.
