All the men and women merely players

No, not that casting couch, get your mind out of the gutter!

With the location found and paper work being undertaken we could begin the fun yet daunting task of casting for the roles of Harvey and Louise. We posted on Shooting People and Talent Circle to hopefully find our actors. 

We had an overwhelming response to the ad. In total over a period of a week we had around 100 hopeful applicants! I was overjoyed with this response but it was initially unclear at to whether they had replied to the ad because they liked the sound of the film, or whether they simply saw the word PAID and replied regardless. This later became very apparent as we had around twenty 19 - 28 year old gorgeous models applying for the role of gluttonous and largely built Louise...

With this new found observation  I set about wading through CVs and Show reels, or rather, the lack thereof
