When it came to finding actors to be involved in my project I went to Casting Call Pro and posted a job advertisement for the four characters I need. In the details and requirements I made sure to mention what episodes I have taken the scenes from, and what the task of the project actually is. I then said what I needed and what type of actresses would be useful for the project, will also mentioning the location and dates of the filming.
I then wrote four individual descriptions of each character, including their appearance, personality and clothing choices. I also made sure to mention what scenes I will need them in as I am filming more than one.
Once people starting applying for the jobs I made a decision on who I wanted based on their appearance but also based on their first impression and characteristic. I watched through the showreels and looked through their CV's to see what they had previously done and made my decision.
For Aria I have picked an actress called Grace Felton.
For Spencer I have picked an actress called Jennifer Matthews.
For Emily I have picked an actress called Jade Coles.
For Hanna I have picked an actress called Nadine Turk.
All are experienced in filming for student films and also being in front of a camera. I am very confident that these actresses will work well with their roles and also work well together. I look forward to working with them and seeing how they deliver their role.
