We had a group discussion before filming and realised that we were going to have to change Izzy who was going to play our female character. This is because most of the locations we found that would look really good in our film were around school, therefore this meant that most of our filming would have to be done during the week after school, although we realised Izzy did not have much free time just after school finished. This meant that this would limit our shooting hours. Therefore after a long discussion we decided to change Izzy to Becca Bentley for our female character.
Although Becca is not our 'typical blonde' female character which we first thought that we wanted as we felt it would be very stereotypical, However now as Becca has brown hair i think it will present the character as being a much more strong woman as the blonde women are usually used in thriller films as the victims and characterised as weak. I think we made the right decision and hopefully that will come across in our finished film which will present a very strong female character.
