The main protagonist in our opening sequence "The Collector" was played by one of the drama teachers and head of performing arts- Doug Quinn.
We casted him as he had lots of acting/ camera acting experience.
Doug's appearance also fit the description of our character, as we wanted a middle aged man who has rough-ish hands from practical work e.g. building his collection.
We went to go and talk to him before filming to let him know what the sequence was about/ what he would be needed to do (if he felt comfortable doing it) and how long we would need him on set. We discussed costume and asked to look at his hands as we wanted our Protagonists story/ history to be as accurate as possible.
