Our New Actor

As our previous actor wasn't very reliable we had to re-cast a new actor to play the part of Lucas. We needed to find someone quickly as we were already behind schedule.Our new actor is Sam Keep a good friend of our actress Aimee Richardson this is good as we know they will have good on screen chemistry; this will help create a good verisimilitude.

Complications In Filming

We had arranged to have completed all our filming by now as we were hoping to capture all our footage over the Christmas holiday however our main actor was unreliable and unable to film on the dates we had agreed. Therefore we have now found a replacement who we think will be suitable for the part and more committed to the filming schedule.
As we have a new actor we have to reshoot all our previous scenes; this has behind schedule however we have planned our filming dates and we hope to capture all our footage by the beginning of February 2011.
