Casting considerations for Polly Dixon

Name: Katie Smith
Role consideration: Polly Dixon
Reason for consideration: I considered Katie for the role of Polly due to her purple hair which is modern, it would give a better indication in the sequence to which scenes are in the present day and which ones are a flash back.
Reasons for not getting the role: Katie is a film studies student and therefore has her own film to make so agreeing on a shooting schedule would be difficult.

Name: Stevii-Lee Ingham
Role consideration: Polly Dixon
Reason for consideration: Stevie is reliable for filming and very willing to participate as she knows how hard it can be to get actors/actresses since she's also making a film.
Reasons for not getting the role: Unfortunately Stevie lives in Brough which is difficult to get to and would make it expensive to find a place to film.












Name: Chantelle Norman-Golding
Role consideration: Polly Dixon
Reason for consideration: Chantelle fits the age description of Polly as she's aged 17 and Polly is a teenager.
Reasons for not getting the role: Finding mutual available times for filming was hard.

Update

I began filming some shots over Christmas and now have to begin editing them.
