5. CASTING
Sarah Jennings is going to be played by Margarita Milne
My 3 Main Characters who on appearance is who I subconsciously based my
character on. Her young, wide eyed, dainty and
childlike face and physique is perfect for the role she
will play as the damaged and desperate best friend.
She has the potential to really shine in this part and
bring in some of her own characteristics to ensure a
realistic and believable performance.

In my trailer there aren’t any major props like a
car or lots of cash, but the simple things which
are focused on at some point need to be perfect.
I will have to take some photos of my characters
together to make out as if the have a distant
friendship. The radio is key for focusing on

stick over the kidnapped woman's mouth and
around her hands behind her back. In this same
shot I will need a balaclava and black gloves so
the identity of the kidnapper is kept hidden.

There are a few shots when the bed is

use is at a separate location from the
chosen house.
