Production 1- Casting

    This week my group and I primarily worked on casting. We decided who will play the ket roles in our film and where we will be filming majority of the scenes. Personally, I found the actors for the main boy character, Troy, and his friends. We decided to cast Evan Phillips as Troy and Dylan Tackman as his best friend. My group decided together to use Tia as Sabrina, Mia as Alex, and Maria as Victoria, who will be the three main characters of our film. We also cast Ms. day to play the teacher in our film because she is very funny and would play the part well of the teacher. 

    In addition to who will be playing what parts, we decided the locations we will be filming in. We will start the movie in my bedroom, where the girls will wake up together after their annual first day of school slumber party. Then, they will get ready and go to my car, which the scenes of them driving to school and arriving to school will take place. Then, they will arrive to school and we will film in the Bahia Vista parking lot as well as the stairs in Building 14. They will have a conversation at the lockers when they get to the second floor, and the last scene will take place in Ms. Day's classroom. We decided an element of the mise-en-scene would be brighter lighting and a peppy feel since it is their first day of school and they are excited to see Troy.
