Within 'My beast friend' Ewan Torrance created three characters; Ed, Amelia and Fluff the cat.
Ed Bryne : As a character, Ed is the owner of Fluff, therefore the driving force behind getting rid of Fluff. He appears a character who cares about what others think of him, and this shown by the fact he is scared that Amelia will stop liking him, and not want to be with him because of Fluff. Fluff has now become to him more of a burden, he sees him as "dead wood" he has moved on from him. Originally we had George playing Ed when we did our first filming at 'the gateway' however after George played the starring role as Fluff in Evie's piece, we decided that it would be better for him to play that character as he knew what to do. Therefore Jake moved starring roles, and became our Ed. This I feel was the right decision as Jake was more suited to the character of Ed, and also meant we could overcome one of the issues we had on our first location were Jake was stuck in a box and had to dictate his opionons on angle shots, this time as a group we could all work together on which shot looked best ect.
Fluff : As a character Fluff, is seen in Ed's eyes as just a man in the cat suit, and this is how as the audience we view Fluff as well until Amelia is introduced. He appears to the audience as a self-centered character, however also afraid that now Ed has met Amelia, he will not want him anymore. He shows hatred towards Amelia to start with, as he thinks she is the one influencing Ed to get rid of him however when Amelia is introduced we learn that actually it is Ed that wants to move on. Originally we had Jake playing Fluff when we did our first filming at 'the gateway' however issues were raised with the fact that as a character we only see Fluff in the cardboard box therefore Jake had to spend all on filming in the box and therefore was harder for us all as a group to have an input into what shots worked ect. Therefore George took on the character of Fluff, and this not only practically was better but also because he had played Fluff in Evie's film he knew how to act "catish"!
Amelia : Before we are introduced to Amelia we presume that she is the driving force behind Ed wanting to get rid of Fluff however when Amelia is introduced we see Fluff in her eyes, as the real cat and she automatically falls in love with him. However we also see that she is an optimistic positive character and sees the best is all the characters, Fluff she sees as the cute cat and Ed she sees as the person who rescued him and gave him a good home.
