Casting Change

Originally we planned on having a group of mixed teenagers as our protagonists, meaning we are able to use the different characteristics to explore different views about the infestation.

We were planning on filming over the half term, but after planning and confirming a date that actors could do, people began to cancel. Causing us to have to change the date of recording. This was not much of a problem as it was easy enough to change the date, the problem came when the actors were unable to do this date as well, then after another attempt at getting a date, that turned out the same way, we decided that it was going to be too difficult to get everyone on a day that they could all do. Forcing us to not be able to film.

Due to the actors being unreliable, we are forced to rethink the casting and character. In response to the problems that had been brought up we have decided to re-script and cut the extra characters out. The script that we have created is easily changed to fit a film following the path of two individuals rather than a group of six/seven.
