Casting - #16

  To make a great film, there needs to be great actors. Somebody who can bring out the emotion of the characters to life, and really fit the role. I need 4 roles for the opening sequence, and without further ado, let me introduce each character. 
Main Character/Protagonist


  For this role, I cast Kyle. He is my best friend and knows how I want things to be done. He understands the underdog story the most, as he has always proven to never quit and give everything a try. I have also taught him the fundamentals of boxing, so he will be able to choreograph any fight scenes well. 
Bully #1

  
  The bully will be somebody who can make snarky remarks and quick-witted mean responses. An exceptional bully character will be able to make the audience feel upset with their actions and bring the best out of the protagonist. I chose to cast my friend, Joey, as I believe he is capable of taking advantage of this role unlike any other and also having fun with it.
Bully #2 


  The second bully will be somebody who can complement the main antagonist by being at their side and also sharing a dislike for the opposition. Someone who I believe can fit this role is my friend Marco. He is someone who I think has great charisma and acting ability. 
Mentor

  
  Arguably the most important character in the development of the protagonist, the mentor is the person who can teach and guide them to the right path, and to personal victory. Someone who I believe can fit this role the best is my friend Victor. Victor is very diligent and strives to do his best every day, and is also great at teaching his peers certain concepts.

Settings to Consider - #4

   When creating a film, it is always important to identify the setting, or multiple settings. This is because it will help to match the event to when and where it is taking place. Since my film will be about a teenager who learns how to box, there should definitely be a boxing gym used at some point in the film. The location should also be clean and organized as well.     It should also include an exterior setting, which may showcase how the characters interact with each other more openly, and at certain times of the day. A great exterior setting to use would be around the neighborhood, because it is an easy place to go out and film at and there is a lot of space for different types of camera shots. There may be some parts of the film that need to be filmed at night, or during the day, and this can be greatly demonstrated using the natural lighting of the sun.   The location of the final battle should be noted as it may be included in the opening. This is becau...
