Measuring the Cast (20/2)
20:12
Measuring the actors at Marjon was very fast-paced, so we had to get through all measurements accurately and quickly. Working in a pair, I measured while Bryony noted them down. At first I found it difficult to move from one to another, but by the end I had the list memorised and could do them in groups (e.g. around bent knee/below knee/calf). The actors were all confident and at ease; the only problem was with that most of them were wearing very baggy sweatpants, so leg measurements took longer as we had to keep finding the knee and moving excess fabric out the way. Some of them also wouldn't let their muscles relax but kept puffing out their chest or flexing biceps, so I had to keep talking to them to get a natural measurement. We asked the actors about their characters, and all of them are expecting their movement to be very physical, as Kevin had said about his style of directing.
