As a cinematographer, I think it's important to represent characters in a realistic way. Finding actors who can portray these details with enthusiastic and depth will be crucial for our film, which explores topics of identity, sexuality, and mental health.
Character A: We are looking for an actor who can portray a character that is struggling with hidden fears and insecurities in a realistic way. An actor who can portray subtle emotional changes and has a deep grasp of internal chaos is needed for this.
- Important things to think about:
- The performer has to feel at ease understanding the complexity of internalized pressure and displaying vulnerability.
- The actor should be able to use body language and little facial gestures to communicate a range of emotions.
Character B: For Character B, we are looking for an actor who can portray the internal struggles of a character who is struggling with his feelings in a genuine way.
- Important things to think about:
- The actor should ideally have no dating experiences or at least act like they don't have any.
- The actor must be able to convey internal conflict without resorting to over-the-top or stereotypical portrayals.
Character C: It is important to find the right actor for Character C, a character whose sexuality is and isn't implied.
- Important things to think about:
- An actor whose sexuality is different is our top priority in order to ensure authentic representation and avoid affecting stereotypes.
- The actor should be able to portray both the vulnerabilities and strengths of a character navigating their identity in a potentially unsupportive environment.
We hope to make a film that connects with viewers and provokes important discussions about sexuality, mental health, and the complexity of human identity by carefully weighing these aspects and actively seeking actors who can portray these complex individuals with authenticity.
