Auditions 2 - The role of Fred and the Postman... (Guys)

Unfortunately, we didn't receive an overwhelming response from the guys...as we only had 35 applicants for both roles. However, we tied this down to a very disheartening fact we heard . . .  
Dear readers; 'Apparently there are about 5 girls to every guy in the acting industry.' Absolutely insane!?! Indeed. But its true. So guys/dudes...if your reading this...DO SOMETHING, WE NEED MORE OF YOU...NOW!!!  
Anyway, once again, our producer and director set out on the mission of narrowing the list down to 18 potentials. The auditions took place on the 3rd of November, at Goldsmiths College, Room 150 from 10am - 6pm. We did indeed meet some interesting characters within those few hours, some  were  truly inspiring, while others just totally creeped the hell out of us!!??!!  Nonetheless, now that we look back, it was an enjoyable experience.  Again the auditions were recorded to aid the decision making process.
On the day the whole group had an immediate favorite for the role of the postman but we were divided over who to cast as Fred. 

After re-watching the auditions the next morning, Kim decided to call-back 3 guys for the role of Fred. This time they would audition along side the lead actress, Annie. A good opportunity for us to see the dynamics between the two...this would help us decide better! :)

We arranged the call-backs on the 9th of November from 10am till 2pm in room 306... again documenting their performances and taking snapshots. Having gone through the footage that evening, we were still kind of divided... but it was up to Kim to choose who ever she felt she could work with best and who she thought suited the role better...
Ladies and Gents, we hereby present to you our male cast...
