PLANNING CASTING AND CHARACTERS

CASTING AND CHARACTERS 

- There are two characters in my film.
1) The main girl
    2) the little girl


1) The main character is a girl who tries to find her way out the forest, however she sees things that take her back to her childhood.

2) The little girl, is a younger version of the main character, which the main character imagines in her dream.


There is no dialogue in this film,  mainly character expression and movement which is what I auditioned.



CHARACTER 1...

This character will be the perfect character for my film. She demonstrates good expressions when acting and does exactly what you ask her to. she's very enthusiastic and takes drama, which shows that she's interested.







CHARACTER 2...

For the second imaginary character, I did a little audition with this year 7. However, due to the powerful ending where the character shoots herself, this was not acceptable for this type of age group to perform it.

After rethinking, I decided to use the same person, for this character as I used for the main character. This makes it easier when organising to meet up and film. The main character is also much older to perform this part, and will understand what she needs to do much more, than the year 7. She is mature and won't take offence when performing the part.

I read the description on Netflix and it sounded really action packed so I decided to watch it.  What was the film about? The main story is based around a normal Family of 4, the father, the mother and their two daughters. The main character is the father, who starts having these bad dreams/visions at night but also in the day time. However these visions where not just some bad dreams they were about a massive alien invasion. He started getting these visions everyday, and they started getting between him and his family and the people around him. As viewers we got to see these visions, which makes the audience understan...

Why are there short film? - Most short films are used to educate people, especially children.

How/where are they exhibited? - short films are often presented at film festivals, which is where these directors get noticed a lot of the time. a few are sold to TV or streaming channels. what's the point? - Short films are great way for film makers to start developing their skills and explore with different skills to. short films can be harder to create at times as its difficult to grab the readers attention in such a short amount of time. it's much cheaper, than longer films and it takes less time to create.
