Research and Planning casting

 Our opening film we want to be a romance horror, this film while take place on todays date about a young couple because of this I want the couple to look older and mature. After scouting on some examples of how the couple could be and how each character could be represented, I finally was able grasp a sketch in my head about how I want each character to be and who could play them.

First off the guy. The guy which is the boyfriend was pretty easy to sketch. This guy was easy to draw in my mind, how tall, the physic, the age, vibe he throws off and just in all his appearance. So, we know that our cast for our film was going to be people we knew, more specifically our friends for this role. We talked about any guy friends that would be down to film and were also comfortable with filming. We also thought of a friend that met the standards of tall, looks older and could have a deep voice to seem older (around 17-19). I then thought of one of my closest friends, he was a super close family friend who met these standards and I knew that if some thing I would feel comfortable filming with, so i asked him and he said yes. His appearance was easy to make him seem a few years older than what he is (16), so we didn't have much job to do there and it was also pretty easy. 

Next and finally was the girl or the girlfriend. The girl was extremely hard to cast, we didn't who we wanted or who could meet the standards that we wanted. The girl didn't have to look the same age the guy but she did have to meet more specific standards than the guy, which is what made it so hard. We wanted the girl to have a diabolical sort of look. This look was key for our film to look good. We also wanted someone who would be comfortable filming with the chosen guy and that met his similareties of brunette and not so tall but around his height. It was pretty hard to think of someone who could meet the standards of someone who had a sort of diabolical or mean look that they could create. We created a t-chart with my friends and my partners friends that could be suited for this role but we got nothing. We had some people that were maybes but nothing perfect. So, we thought of ourselves and even though nothing is definite with the girl we ended choosing that maybe I would be the right person for it. At the time we only have me as the girl but if anything in comes up before we start filming it would help a lot.
