Why Did I chose this cast?
I chose minimal characters because it adheres to short film conventions of small cast and crew. Also considering my film is about self-discovery and love there is no need for other unnesscary characters to be invoolved just to fill up space on set or create conversation/dialogue.
Above is the characteristics i believe my main protagonist (Megan) would have or see herself has, thinking about words to describe Megan helped me visualise my character not only what they would physically look like but their mental, emotional and spritual state as well. Technically I have only one character as Megan is Dan and Dan is Megan, nevertheless it is important to establish Dan's character because it's her'ideal' partner if he was real.
The purpose of this page was so I''m more sure of my characters personalities, making it easier to direct them when filiming.
Love, Megan xo
