As the nature of my primary product is live action and features a small number of people I now need to acquire actors for my short film. Due to the multiple options I am faced with I have decided to document each one and evaluate which one would suit the production best. With personal connections with a large amount of actors within my year group I could potentially use them within my production however as the age of my protagonist is slightly older than my peers it could cause continuity errors. Another option, hiring external actors, is also valid and would mean I would have access to a larger pool of talent and experience. Below is a collection of websites I have gathered which offer the service of talent calling for short films.

The most promising website, www.starnow.co.uk, is pictured below. I have began the process of submitting a request for actors and with its links to major media production companies such as ITV and the BBC I feel like this is the route to take if I decide to source my actors externally.
