Actors & Casting

• For our two minute opening of our film, we decided on having a teenage girl as a protagonist. A possible character/ actress we could base our protagonist on  is Blake Lively who played Serena Van-Der Woodsen in Gossip Girl. I think that she is a good example of a basis for our protagonist as although she is presented as a strong minded and popular girl she is also slowly showed throughout the series as a more trouble/ lonely girl who at times runs away from home in order to avoid her personal problems. She is also shown as a innocent and worried character which I think links nicely with what we are hoping to accomplish through our character.  

•  However, in the scene where our protagonist has a flashback we have decided to include a man to give a bit more detail of how the main character is in that situation without giving to much and also allowing the audince to get more involved in the two minute opening and question what will happen in the rest of our film. I think it would be very suitable if we use someone to play the role of the man in the flashback that has similar characteristics and features similar to Chace Crawford as he has played various roles some including ones which he play nice but also evil characters leaving the audience wandering what the impact of his role in our two minute opening will be.  As we cannot use these precise actors we would like to use some which will mainly remind the audience of these actors in order for them to establish a sense of what kind of characters they are.
