Male Character Planning

This was our first option for the main male character, Michael Cason. This is because he is older than all of our female actresses. He is grown up and mature, something which we want our male character to be as he has just lost his child. Therefore he must also be caring and gentle. The female audience will be attracted to him which will intrigue them to watch more. The male audience will also like him as Michael enjoys gym and playing football, therefore they will relate to him. Michael works everyday up London therefore it would be very hard to schedule days to film with him as he is so busy.

 Our last option for the role was David Franklin. He is manly and is older than our female actress. He looks much older than Mike and this is why he would be best for the role. We need someone who looks old enough to be a young dad. The female audience will find him attractive therefore they will want to continue with this film. David is not camera shy therefore we can get him to do anything without him being scared. Also David attends the same school as us therefore it will be easy to film.

Female Character Planning

 Our first option for who will play the main female role was Poppy Massey. This is because she is little and very delicate, which would make it more believable as to when she becomes depressed. She looks young another to be a young mother but also old enough to have had child. She is very pretty with lovely hair and big features. This will attract the male audience as they will find her attractive therefore this will encourage them too watch. She will also attract the female audience as they will feel sympathy for her as she is so little and cute. Poppy is shy which strangely would work well when filming her as the character she would be playing is meant to be quiet due to the fact her daughter has died.

Our next option for the role of Connie Williams was Demi Sims. This is because Demi is very attractive and again, like Poppy, will appeal to the male audience. Unlike Poppy though, Demi is very tall and this may not be as effective as she will look more grown up, and possibly would not get the sympathy from the public. Demi does not like being filmed and this is where we will have a problem.

Our last option for the main role was Demi Cato. This is because, like all the other girls, Demi is stunning. This will make the female audience be envious of her looks but also love her. Demi is not afraid of acting as she loves drama. This could work very well as we know that she would do anything that we asked her to, but this could also not work as she is quite loud and our main character is not

Font Research

We searched into 'Scary Fonts' and found some styles that we really liked. We chose a selection of these to pick from. The idea that we was going for was that the font had to look like it had been written in blood. This is why we chose the colour red. We also picked various fonts which looked like it was dripping or had been splattered. The second idea was that it was very childish writing as the mental state of our main character will be very young.

 The first one we picked fitted our criteria as it looks as if the blood is dripping. However it did not look like childish writing therefore this was not going to be the font we would use in our film.

 The second font we chose did look almost childish as it is scruffy by wasn't very clear that it was blood so this again was not our favourite.

 The third font fitted both ideas as it looked childish, using a backwards 'e' made it look as if a small child who may not be able to write properly has done it. It also looked as if it has been written in blood as it is scruffy and double lined. This was going to be our potential font.

 Our last choice of font definitely looked like blood as splatters of it are around the font but unfortunately it looked more computerized than real life.
