Character Casting

Casting Profiles

This is our actress we have cast and this is her profile. Phoebe Haroon goes to our school and her availability is quite flexible. This is really great for us we will be able to contact her very easily regarding re-filming.
We figured her height, shorter than the previous actress, will create an element of innocence as she seems childlike. This will surprise the audience as they underestimate her timid stance. We will use her scars as recounts of how many souls the antagonist has taken and devoured. This actress is also affordable. Her difficulty to focus may be a letdown as were are on a tight schedule and cannot afford to go over filming time in order to get the perfect shots or re-film.

Her costume is similar to the previous actress', with smaller inched heels.











This candidate was chosen as his nationality and ethnicity comply with the convention of the Caucasian male being targeted by the antagonist in a horror film. His blonde hair and blue eyes will be used to represent oblivion as the victim has no control over what happens to him. It is favourable that he is in a relationship taken so he doesn't show any love interest towards the antagonist. We have eliminated all traits of love and replaced them with pure evil and hatred. The punctuality is a must have as we will start to film promptly and can't have cast running late and slowing the production down. This actor is also affordable.

The picture below shows are original costume for our actor, however this may be altered with white top and different jacket. This is because we feel it will portray innocence due to being our main protagonist/victim.

Character Profiles

Character Profiles

Blair Regan is a 16 year old student at a private all-girls school. She has the perfect life, living with her adoring parents and 2 sisters and brother. She is a national figure skater and is seen to be the perfect child however she has a double life and is quite reckless with things involving sex and drugs - engaging in horrifying activities that she keeps hidden from her family. She fears the unknown 'murderer' as she believes their victims were killed because of a crime, a crime that she herself has also committed. From this memory, she believes that she is next in line for death so isolates herself from the world and her family. She is possessed by an unknown entity that she is unaware of, and has been since her 16th birthday - when she lost her virginity. Regan enjoys reading novels, sewing, watching chick flicks, figure skating, ice-skating, and acting.

He has a low paid job on the side of his education getting him through his stereotypical university student life.He enjoys and gets along with his life. He is without a girlfriend but has a large group of friends who he shares his accommodation during university. Owen's interests involve going to the theatre, watching films, playing arcade games, and bowling. During our opening he is a victim who gets caught in the wrong place at the wrong time where he was casually going home from the library where he was studying.

For our recce we went around the school collecting pictures of potential locations of where we could possibly film, this would give us an idea of what we are going to do and what shots and angles we would use and more importantly; see how much space we have to shoot our mini brief. This is what we collected:

Character Analysis

            For our mini brief we only had two characters and they were Dr.Larke and Adam. Adam is an aspiring footballer that has been set back because of an injury, in his west ham U21 career, that has occurred the day before the meeting takes place with Dr Larke. Adam is a very career focussed and work driven young man who will do anything to make his dream of playing at an elite level come true. Dr.Larke is the doctor that lets Adam know how long he is out for and when he can get back into action. Dr Larke is rather inconsiderate about Adams dreams and is unable to comfort Adam in his time of need.
