directors role

What to do with your cast as a director...
The director should really be the only one talking to the cast, they need to form a special relationship
- Explain the character to help get them into role
- Introduce them to the character profiles - give them the background to the person they'll be playing
- Don't give them a stereotype of character such as "Your character is really bitchy" as it may affect their acting
During rehearsals
- Clearly explain what they need to do
- Take them to locations
- And maybe explain to them how a film is made - inform them of the various steps included so they understand that it's not easy or simple and will require patience
- Rehearse in order of the shooting schedule
- Show them the storyboard and shooting schedule
