ideal actors

Ideal actor for the main role:

Jamie Bell would be an ideal actor to use as the main role. he has got the right image that we are looking for and would fit the role of 'James Ford' well. He mainly stood out in the film "Jumper" where he played "Griffin, a street wise character that was cocky yet when it came down to business he was fast to react to keep his life.

Ideal actor for women: 

Angelina Jolie would be an ideal role for the nameless women in our film. she has the look that we are trying to get across from this character and because of the experience she has with this type of role. the role slightly resembles the role she had in the film "Mr & Mrs Smith" where she played an agent for hire, yet when her secret life came out to her agent for hire husband she then has the choice of choosing her job of her husband. however a more suiting role that was a big reason for her being chosen was from the film "Wanted" where she plays "Fox" an agent working for a secret organisation of assassins, in this her role was to recruit "Wesley" to the organization to work from them. a similar aspect as our film.

Ideal actor for Boss: 

Samuel .L Jackson would be the ideal role for the character of the boss. His acting skills and name is know all over and is one of the biggest names in acting. some of the roles that he has played suits ore film in that the role consists of being a leader in the film and having the anger behind the role. the film that drew our attention was the film "Arena" where he played the boss to an organization that forced people to fight for there lives and streamed it on the internet. another film where he shows what we are looking for is his part in Pulp Fiction where he plays a street wise mobster who gets what he wants by any means.

 Ideal actor for government agents:

These 3 actors, Josh Duhamel, Paul Walker and Joseph Gorgon-Levitt, would be the ideal actors to play in our film. throughout there own unique talents they have all played a role which is a government agent, accept for Joseph Gordon-Levitt who has not, however his role in looper shows that he has the capability of playing the role. not only are all of these actors qualified, they have the right look that we are trying to get from our film and suit the role that they have been given well. 

The decision of Josh Duhamel was made off of his role in Transformers where he played a special forces soldier who discovers and ends up working with the alien robots to fight wars on earth as a elite task force.

Paul Walker was chosen from his role in the Fast and Furious films, specifically number 4 where he played a government agent who is working to bring down a drug organization, but his history gets in the way and he changes who he is working for.

The film that made me want Joseph Gordon-Levitt as one of the agents was the film "Looper" where he played a hired gun who killed people from the future that where sent back, it was all going well until his future self was sent back and he was ordered to kill him or be kill. It then tern into a hunt to kill his future self befor the mobsters kill him.

Magazine cover

 

This is our magazine cover. It follows almost every convention of a traditional magazine cover apart from the name of the magazine is not as big as it is on a normal magazine. Created by Charlie Hudson and Charlie Blackmore

magazine cover inspiration

All 3 of these posters are good examples when looking at our magazine poster. the main thing that i am looking at is the placement of things such as the text, pictures etc. 

By looking at these you can see that you need the main picture to be large and in the middle of the cover , however the name of the magazine must be very large at the top which makes it the main focus.

For our trailer we had to create a poster for it. We went with a conventional trailer poster rather than a teaser poster.
