Change in Actors

As we were planning, we decided that we are actually going to use Rasharn, originally the attacker, as Alexia's love interest instead of Daniel. This is because he is more available to film with as he goes to the same school and we also decided that as a plot twist in our film, Alexia's love interest was part of the organisation that is hunting them, however he accidentally falls in love with her. We felt that this would also be more suitable as he does Drama A Level so would be good at developing this character to show the struggle he faces between his love for Alexia and his contract with the organisation. We will also be sticking with the name Arby as it is more unusual and supports the slightly futuristic element we've chosen to portray in our storyline.

New Character Profile:

Name: Arby
Age: 18
Job: Works for the organisation that is hunting 'The Others'
Interests: Reading books, listening to music
Birthday: 15th December
Home Life: Lives alone in a small apartment in London
Height: 5ft 11"

Arby is Alexia's love interest in the film. He comes across as fairly shy and caring however faces his own struggles - the torment of loving Alexia but his obligation to the organisation meant to be hunting her. This develops his character further as he can be brave but it also allows the audience to like and dislike him throughout the film, creating more tension.

We decided to use Rasharn for this character as he does drama a level alongside Mia (Alexia) therefore is used to working with her and as they are good friends it won't be awkward when filming. As he does drama he is a good actor therefore can make the character more realistic and understands the need for commitment as this task is important to our coursework.
