PottyHead
Lol yeah it probably wont happen, but that thought will keep from sulking all throughout my holiday now happy.gif I can actually enjoy it tongue.gif But oh well...you never know.. maybe they'll come across my stuff and be like 'woo she looks cool i love her!' heh....nice thoughts, not going to happen...but oh well.

Ohh and I know this is Lavender Brown but when my dad was on the phone with the casting directors he found out that Romilda Vane has been cut from the movie. Just thought you'd like to know lol tongue.gif has nothing to do with this topic but never mind.

And dont worry, I'm almost always on here...there's nothing to do lately because like all my friends just bum off with their boyfriends and stuff now, and cause i'm not going out with anyone its just me and the rest of my friends who i don't really like tongue.gif But oh well VTM is wicked! I love it happy.gif tis the fountain of all knowledge lol.

Yeah aslong as someone off this forum gets the part then i can be like 'yay!' it would be like one of my friends getting the part, well we kind of are all friends... so yeah happy.gif

CJ 26
Ah Angela_7 you're really really pretty!! Guys...its just hit me that they're actually having auditions!! I mean-this is what we've been waiting for SO SO SO long now and finally they're here!! You know they said no make up-would fake tan be allowed? xxx

oo-here is a pic of me as well lol! Sorry about this-could you tell me what you think? I'm the one in the middle! x

trying on dresses for fun!

lavender_07
Woman....you just made me cry sad.gif you are flipping gorgeous! dear lord! ive got no chance! you look exactly like lavender!! ohmy.gif ohmy.gif ohmy.gif
... mad.gif ....

haha! but seriously! like duuude!!!


..It hasnt hit me yet...i still dont realy believe it...im sure ill be waiting in the que and itl finally hit me tongue.gif
Angela_7
lol nop, sorry lavender_07, i am not secretly called megan! tongue.gif

omg CJ 26 you are sooo pretty! i am sooooo jelous.. your GORGEOUS! smile.gif

i dont no if fake tan would be okay, i wouldnt really put any on coming up to the auditions coz it would be really bright. Also, why would you want to use fake tan?? isnt lavender meant to be pale with the hole whos had is whos thing with ron??

XxX
CJ 26
Ahh thanks guys-I'm a bit gutted though because I'be just dyed my hair a honey colour but oh well what can you do lol I know what you mean-I've never used fake tan before but I thought it could maybe be used to give me a bit of a glow because I am normally SICKLY pale!! So is everyone going to start queuing at 8 then? xxx
PottyHead
You could always just use a tanning moisturiser to like give it a little bit of a tan but like not too much. Like with fake tan it can go wrong and you could end up like orange like some girl in my school *lol that was funny* but with a little hint of a tan it wouldn't look to obvious and would be more natural looking. And by the way you're really pretty! You all are, so good luck to everyone!

x
lavender_07
Yup! like the jonsans (sp?) stuff that came out a couple of years ago, thats really good!

im really pale too...well..kinda...im weird tongue.gif im pale but with tons of freckles and my cheeks are always red...haha so im not white...im red! wacko.gif ...stupid skin.. and i have waaay too many freckles too! sad.gif
CJ 26
Yeah good idea Pottyhead!! Ah thanks!! Just think-this time in 2 weeks we may know who is playing Lavender Brown xx

do you think it would be that soon? i thought it wold take untl august maybe...or early september, just before they start shooting... huh.gif
CJ 26
Well I was watching an interview with Luna Lovegood and she found out that she was playing the part in about a week and a half so you never know!! Thats what she said was really good about the audition process-it was really really quick! x
PottyHead
I heard somewhere that it takes about a month just to sort out everything from the open auditions, so yeah I think Lavender_07 is right, it could actually be a while before we find out who actually is playing her.

x
lavender_07
Oh! i didnt know that!...but she had to keep it quiet for a while anyway didnt she...haha imagine it was one of us that got it, and we had to keep posting on here without being able to say anything tongue.gif haha i think i might crack tongue.gif

EDIT: yeah, i was just thinking, it would have talken about the week and a half...but after all the waiting and then the sceen tests and things,...right?
Angela_7
wow i didnt realise that luna found out so quickly! i hope the process goes that quickly for us (thats hoping i get past the first stage! sad.gif )

ahhh i am so excited though!!!! laugh.gif biggrin.gif tongue.gif

i no they say no to wear any make-up but do you rekon they would notice a little bit of mascara just to make your eyes a bit more defined??

XxX
lavender_07
Hmmm...i doubt theyd notice in the first round, what with so many girls, but if (when tongue.gif) you made it to the second round, id say take it off in a bathroom or something!

My mum is going nuts. ive been up here all day and done nothing tongue.gif haha i guess she just doesnt understand tongue.gif
Angela_7
yer i no what you mean. i probably wont wear it the first time just to be on the safe side. and if they are taking pictures they would be able to tell later wouldnt they. ?

i no i have been up here all day as well... i have to go now though sad.gif

i will be back tonight though biggrin.gif

byeee

XxX
lavender_07
Haha bye!
i never thought of that actually..the pictures...but, is mascara really obvious? (sorry, lack of make-up knowledge)

I should probably clean my room...give myself an excuse for being up here tongue.gif


Haha i just checked, and dyu know what? in the last day and a half, weve made 8 pages of posts tongue.gif haha


Ooh! i just realised! after next wek i can finally cut my hair! woo! (if i dont get past the next round that is tongue.gif) Me thinks its gotten wway too long! *nods*
PottyHead
Mascaras not that obvious, unless you put copious amounts on your eyelashes to make them all volumed ands tuff. But no a little bit, like just one coat wont look too bad I don't think, but then again you never know. Like Angela_7 said, they may be able to tell when you have photos taken.
x
lavender_07
Oh right! aww...pity...that means i cant wear concealor either then...you could probably tell the difference in colour of skin tongue.gif haha it would look fairly weird in a picture alright tongue.gif
Angela_7
yer exactly. I dont think i will wear any just to be on the safe side and anyways if you could only wear a small amount that wouldnt really make a difference, whats the point? lol

are you guys just going to wear jeans and a top to the auditions coz i dont really no what to wear that would make me stand out you no?

help needed! blink.gif

XxX
lavender_07
Um..im definately wearing jeans anyway! im not sure about a top...ill probably be wearing a big huge jumper becasue its probably going to be freezing tongue.gif

You see, the thing is, everyone is going to be trying to stand out. but it wont really matter, becasue, if its like all the other auditions, theyll be asking you to say your name and where your from, and during that time theyl be looking at and assesing you!
PottyHead
I dont know, I would probably just wear skinny jeans, some comfy shoes and probably just like a plain T-Shirt or something, You know like something comfortable to wear but still looks cute at the same time. I just wouldn't wear like a short skirt or tight top or anything though because they might get the wrong impression about you... I'd be willing to bet quite a few girls would turn up dressed like that and then probably wouldn't get a call back. Cause like they said they want you to be yourself and stuff, so just dress like yourself lol happy.gif

x
CJ 26
Guys-I've just had a thought! Do youthink Lavender wull have to cry real tears because I'm reeeaaaalllly bad at that! Like-when I played Juliet in Romeo and Juliet I was like O no-you're dead (cry god ****-cry) but I just couldn't!! x
PottyHead
I'm quite good at making myself cry, i used to do i all the time as a kid when I wanted something and in my final performance for my Drama GCSE I had to cry and I'm quite good at it happy.gif But I think like they wont try and make you cry at the auditions so if you couldn't do when it came to filming they could probably use some of that stuff that makes you cry anyway if you really couldn't do it. I don't think it would be too much of an obstacle in deciding who gets the part, I doubt it would even matter at all really.

x
CJ 26
Phew thanks Pottyhead-thats calmed me down!! I was speaking to a friend who is seriously into acting and she said that at open auditions don't be really disheartened if you don't get a call back because the casting directors get a criterior that all the people that go through have to fit into and its quite detailed and so thats the attitude I'm going with now. Eventhough I would be gutted if I didn't get through it doesn't mean that I can't act-it just means that I wasn't what they were looking for which is really fair enough and its bound to be an amazing experience!! x
lavender_07
Yeah, and you just know itl all the rupert fans thatl be in the short skirts and tight tops rolleyes.gif

I cant make myself cry either sad.gif well...i can...but it takes about 5 minutes of concentration tongue.gif haha

Oh my gosh! ive been thinking that the part of lavender would be fairly small, but according to this interview with david yeats it going to be a fairly big part :
------------------------------------
Quint: Obviously you have to keep Harry the focus, but

David Yates: No, no, no. It’s a very different film, actually, the 6th film. It’s Sex, Drugs and Rock ‘N Roll, a lot of it, because it’s so much about the sexual and emotional politics of those characters, which is great.

<snip>

And it’s much less Dan’s story in the next movie. Dan’s got a great role in it. He gets a chance to stretch his comic muscles because he’s got some very funny scenes. And Rupert is big in the next one… and Lavender Brown and that whole relationship. And Rupert and Emma’s relationship is foregrounded. It’s some really fun stuff.
PottyHead
wow, i didn't think she would really be focused on as much it seems she will be. Oh mi god that is actually so so cool! happy.gif And we were all thinking a few months ago that she might have even been cut from the film. But mind you I don't remember too much comedy in HBP....*scratches head..hmmm* huh.gif lol.

x
CJ 26
aaaaahhhh thats crazy!! I want this part even more now!!! I would actually do anything for this part (well...not anything but very nearly anything tongue.gif) xxxxxx (frustrated sigh because she wants this part so much!!) xx

lavender_07
I think the whole lavender-ron thing will be the main comedy of the film..id say thats why hes keeping it in, to lighten up a bit of such a dark movie tongue.gif

Argh!!! soo excited!!
my aunt hasnt come yet sad.gif im thinking i might just ring my brother....urgh! i feel sooo incredibly guilty!
PottyHead
I'm so glad that Lavender's a bigger part than I expected...geez now i really do hope that the stuff DY sent them is enough for them to still consider me for the part!! *By the way i meant about the comedy with Dan if you're not sure*

Lavender_07, you could always take both of them couldn't you? Like if you felt really guilty about it why not ask them both if they would want to come, also that way you would have more support

x
lavender_07
Because i can only afford to pay for one of their tickets sad.gif
i can hardly ask them to drop everything, fly to a different country, pay about 100euro to do so, and then stand in a line for 4 hours, then go straight home again...it would be quite rude, especially since i asked, and they didnt offer sad.gif
help!
PottyHead
oh yeah, I didn't think of that...

Hmm, I dunno you could always ask them to decide between themselves who wants to go with you or something...or, sorry I'm not much help I don't know really....

But you'll be fine I reckon, don't worry just like ask them who wants to go more or something.

...thats kind of rubbish help but i hope it helped somehow..

x
lavender_07
Haha yeah, thanks Pottyhead smile.gif
hmm..i think i should go ask my mum if she was talking to my aunt at all...to see if shes coming..
of course if i go downstairs ill be made wash the floor...blah...
decisions, decisions...
CJ 26
Ah pottyhead don't worry I'm sure you will be taken into account-especially since you got a reply!! Do you have a pic of urself? xx
PottyHead
Lol, I'm just going to think that I will, that way when I'm away I wont be sulking or being miserable and I can jsut enjoy it tongue.gif!

And yeah I do have a pic of myself (I'll put two up, one with make up and one without)

Me with make up *poser!*

Me without make up sad.gif *bleghh*

Lol, not that amazing but shh
x
lavender_07
Aww your gorgeous!!! tongue.gif and even more so WITHOUT the make-up!! biggrin.gif

Dude, weve made it to 10 pages in 2 days...ahah...we talk alot....or else weve got no lives...oh wait...thats just me... blink.gif ...nevermind tongue.gif

huh.gif
CJ 26
We are just showing that we're dedicated lol I So do you think thousands and thousands will turn up? Imagine if it was only like 6 of us! ahhhhhhh.....a girl can wish tongue.gif x
lavender_07
Haha it would want to be some serious wishing tongue.gif haha

Im starting to think there might be more than luna...because all the people who couldnt go to luna would be there, all the rejected girls from the luna auditions should be there, all of the girls who actually want to be lavender will be there, and of course all the rupert fans will definately be there! so, yeah, i think thats a fair few people tongue.gif
Angela_7
i agree that a lot of people will be turning up to the auditions but i am not sure it will be as many as the luna auditions

a) coz it has been said with very short notice
and
cool.gif because a lot of people who are 16 and have just done their GCSE's may be going away or whatever and i would have though that that would have been the most poplular age group?

i hope you wouldnt have to cry real tears! i can do it, but its very hard! tongue.gif

XxX
lavender_07
They gave a longer notice than they did for the luna auditions though didnt they?
Mmm...i suppose so..i mean, alot of people have said that theyre going on holidays during that day..

I hope not too sad.gif i suck at it sad.gif
CJ 26
Same!! Did you lot go to the Luna auditions? What were ther like? Apparently they were really hectic and loads of girls were absolutely gutted because they felt that they weren't even considered. Some said that they didn't even get a glance! x
lavender_07
Nope! i didnt go to the luna ones!
yeah, did you hear the news story back then, when a girl said she wasnt even allowed in because of her accent or something like that...?
CJ 26
I heard that!! But they really have to expect loads of different people to come because other than the age they've given no specifications so they can't really complain if they get a wide variety of accents, hair colours etc. xx
Angela_7
yer i went to the luna ones, not because i thought i might have a chance of getting the part, because i know i didnt, i just wanted the experience you know? They were really hectic though and sooo busy! the way they are saying they are going to do the lavender auditions sound so much fairer because if they are taking pictures (which they say they are) of everyone, then everybody will get a fair chance to be looked at.

and definatly, they are going to have to expect loads of different types of peole as they have given no specifications at all, like you said CJ 26.

personally i dont think they will be as busy as the luna ones but is probably me being more hopeful than actually talking some sense! huh.gif tongue.gif

XxX
Muggle_Born_Girl
I reckon there'll be about the same amount of girls as the Luna ones. For me the main problem is getting there! I live in South Yorkshire so it's not a simple journey considering Ive only ever been to London once before and i live ages away and dont know my way around London at all. And my sister's coming home from Uni on the saturday so im still in the process of persuasion of my parents- but i WILL go! I can't miss this!

What time are people going to start queuing- not before8am and the line opens at 10am i think.

x.x.x
lavender_07
No, you can start queueing at 8am, but they dont give out the applications till 10am and then the lines close at 1pm.
i wont get there until about 9 or half past...sad.gif depending on if the flight is delayed, how long it takes to get from stansted to earls court...and whether or not i get lost tongue.gif
Angela_7
well basically, i am going to try and start queing as soon as possible which is what most people are going to do i should think happy.gif

i'm so glad i can go! even though i no i dont stand much of a chance, i still want to go because other wise for agez i would just be thinkin `what if?` sleep.gif

XxX
lavender_07
Yeah, i know what you mean! noone in my family wanted me to go! they all said it was a stupid idea and i wouldnt get it and its a waste of money! blah blah blah..
but hey, i dont care whether they understand how much i want this anymore! the tickets are booked and thats that! tongue.gif


I wish i could get there earlier to start queuing sad.gif by the time i get there, the line will be about 2000 girls long sad.gif
CJ 26
ah bless!! My parents aren't at all like that! I think they're more excited than I am lol and when I told my mum about the open auditions she sent me an email half an hr later saying the tickets had been booked and that we were going to make a weekend out of it smile.gif What do you mean when you say that they're going to hand the applications out? Do they give us like a form to fill in? x
