Chris Saker is playing the character of James Lane, a 25 year old businessman who works mainly nights, and doesn't get home till early in the morning. Originally educated at a boarding school, he has a rich upper class background. He moved to London when he was 19 on his own when offered a job promotion, and met Lily at the restaurant where she works. He asked Lily to move in with him 3 years ago, and proposed to her just a year ago. James is incredibly protective over Lily and is unexperienced when it comes things going wrong as he's had such a luxuirous upbringing. During our short film, we see his inexperience develop from the moment Lily arrives home.
I like the fact that you are thinking carefully about your characters and trying to sketch them out. Actors try to do this too, building up the character so that they can 'get into role'.
