To play this role I will lower my voice to make him appear older and when talking to the reporters. This will also help show his maturity and by moving with authority will show the contrast between his job and the lower class of some of the other Laramie residents such as the ranchers. When talking to the news reporters, I will frown and talk with a negative tone to show his frustration with the way the media is portraying the incident.

Mickleson has a lot of energy and large hand gestures to show his enthusiasm and youthful spirit. I will also speak with a bright tone to show his positive outlook on life. When on the phone with Gallaway after hearing about what happened with Matthew, I will speak quickly to show his desperation and shock of hearing the bad news.
