Casting for the part of bagman In Sly antics video Intro they include a masked figure at the end
to create a link between the two videos we wanted to follow on the story and include the masked man. As he is masked it didn't need to be the same actor playing the the masked man in our video so we chose someone who was around the same build and height so the two looked quite similar and the follow on would be obvious. That person happened to be my dad which was convenient as he was available on any date or time.
Casting As sly antics came to us via the social media platform twitter we didn't need to do much casting as we would centre the band in our video. Cafe scene To fit our idea of having a scene centring a cafe full of older people we need to get at least 10 elderly cast members. Firstly we went to the centre for the elderly in Ilkley to ask if anyone would be willing however as our filming fell later on in the day it wasn't possible.
So then Mr Burrows suggested some of his neighbours, who worked at a home for the elderly, would be able to help so they were contacted but due to late notice and one neighbour being on holiday this also didn't go ahead. So I then started asking my own neighbours if they would be willing to help out and even though many said they couldn't enough people said that they could. We asked them to be at the Outside the box cafe for 4.
