Talent Sourcing

When making the transition from AS to A2, we knew we had to think more carefully about who we cast. We wanted to make sure we cast people with skill in acting so that the performances were convincing. 

We cast Jack Burns as the role of Archie, as we felt he had a look that would make the audience warm to him, and that also made him look more vulnerable than the antagonist, Robbie. Jack studies Drama at A Level, so we knew he had acting experience.  

We cast one of our own group members, Jordan Winter, as she had a very convincing performance, as she was able to portray both a girl hopelessly in love, and was also convincing in showing her distress during the breakdown sequence.
