Dawn is playing the villain because she has the look that the group wanted. Her face was easy to apply the makeup to and she's the only one who knew how to do makeup. Also she has been watching makeup tutorials for years so it was better having someone who could easily follow directions on how to apply makeup. I have pictures of how Dawn normally looks compared to how she looks with the makeup on. We were able to cast Dawn because she is in the group that I'm working in and she had the same timetable as most of the people in the group which made it easier for us to film as we all had the same free periods. It would've been harder to cast someone else as filming would revolve around their schedule and it may not be the same as ours. We needed someone who we could easily access and Dawn was easy because she does Media and is in the same group as us. She starred in my music video for AS Media so she was used to the camera following her around. Although she's playing two different roles she is still able to change herself and become a villain character. With the makeup on, Dawn is able to look scary and cause she has long hair adds more darker look as we can play about and put her hair over her face to look like the girl from 'The Ring'.
Sharna will play Riley because she is able to play a strong character and it was simple to cast her as she is in my group for the trailer which makes it easier to film her. Sharna also was the star of her music video in AS so she has experience behind the camera just like Dawn. We wanted another girl to play the final girl but her timetable wouldn't allow us to film her. The girl we originally wanted is a drama student so we felt that would be good as she'll know how to act well.
