Costume Design - Steon

Characters

Steon – Steon is the main character in this story. He is a chav that works for Boss dealing drugs. He has a sick girlfriend which is the reason he is selling drugs so that the money can go towards making her better. We added this into the story so that the audience has a bit of sympathy for Steon.  (George Ready)

Boss – Boss is a drug dealer who is at the top of the whole chain. He controls everyone and is wealthy off all the money he makes from selling drugs. Boss isn’t someone that you would want to get on the wrong side of as he could do serious damage to you if you didn’t pay back his money. (Tim Purser)

Mugger – The mugger isn’t in the story that often, but just comes up and mugs Steon and takes his money, leaving Steon in a dilemma of having to get £100,000 to Boss in the next day (Greg Martin)

Steon’s girlfriend – The girlfriend is ill but they don’t have enough money to pay for any tablets that would make her better (Ellie Graham)

End Titles

Final Cast List

Tim Purser
George Ready
Akile Burgess
Greg Martin
Ellie Graham

In the lesson before I had wrote the possible cast list and then I had to contact the members of the cast list to finalise the decision for them to be in our productions.
Due to change of characters we have had to change the name of the main character  from Jermaine to Steon as the names wouldn't match the person playing the part of the main character.

Possible Cast List

This is the list of people that could possibly be cast in our film trailer. We need to make sure they are flexible so that they can film when we need to. Each of these are comfortable to be a part of our filming and the final cast list depends on their flexibility and ability to get to the location of our filming. 

 George Ready - Steon

Tim Purser - Boss

Emile Ruddock - Steon

 Greg Martin - Mugger

Akile Burgess - Mugger

Ellie Graham - Steon's girlfriend

Grace Reohorn - Steon's girlfriend
