PLAN:
- Go into the sixthform centre
- Ask people questions:
- Why should we cast you?
- What is your best quality?
- Have you had any pervious acting experience?
- Ask boys the questions so that we can say that we were considering different options for the stalker- chose a woman because there wouldn't be the immedate assumption that she was a sexual predator.
We interveiwed potential cast members as part as our casting process to decide what kind of personality the stalker should have. The questions we asked helped us find out who would work best as an actor and bring our vision to life. We decided through interveiwing boys, that we would rather have a female stalker. I was chosen to play the role of the stalker, as I was already in the production team, and a female stalker was part of our USP. I was also cast to be the best friend of of Sarah, Becky, who we decided would be the connection between the stalker and the victim. Although this is not shown in our film-opening, having a female stalker leaves the motive up to interpretation, whereas with a male stalker, it would be assumed that stereotypically, their motivation was of sexual intent.
