[Pre-Production] Choosing Our Actor

Choosing Our Actor:

I had a very specific idea in my head in my type of actor I was looking for, both from appearance and personality. For the appearance I was keen on having a character that looked like a super agent. For me the key parts for that are: a somewhat sporty look, mature face, dark hair and no obvious facial spots. And of course someone who could act.
I soon found out, after describing what my vision was, that everyone either had the same vision and agreed with the idea.
As the camerman and assistant director I felt it would be an added bonus if the actor we found would be completely open to any directions, take directions easily and would openly add any suggestions or concerns if he may have any.
As our researcher, Genia, decided to look through all the people she knew or had heard of that has done or does acting. One of the people she came across is called Duncan. He fit our team and my criteria very well and seemed very enthusiastic to help out.
