To star in my film, I proposed to employ Pierce’s brother, Robert. I believe Robert was the most appropriate actor for a film for a variety of reasons. For one, Robert has experience working in theater, so I was confident that he’d be flexible when instructed and given directions to follow. I also felt like he matched the image I had of our main protagonist to a T. My first impression of Robert is that he was serious, stoic, and kind of stone faced. He doesn’t show much emotion. Since our character is trapped within his own mind, haunted by the trauma of escaping death and losing his sister, I felt like his calm demeanor would create an interesting juxtaposition.

Our next actress is Katelyn Wagner, who will be playing the phantom of Lionel’s dead sister and is also the cinematographer in our group. We felt this was most convenient since Katelyn is comfortable around the camera & scheduling would not be problematic. Katelyn also has a very feminine appearance which, again, would provide good contrast to the spooky and disturbing nature of her character’s role.
