Auditions

DSD held auditions for our female protagonist character; we needed to ensure it was someone dark haired as we are going against ‘blonde girl victim’ stereo-types but someone that is patient to work with, because filming hours are long are some scenes need to be repeated several times. So they have to have flexible hours, but most of all a good actress so that they can play the innocent victim.

We auditioned around twenty girls and found that some either had one quality from the above missing or they just did not meet up to our high standards.  

We emailed all our actresses and told them our decision; because we couldn’t find anyone I decided I will put myself up for the role and film the parts I am not acting in. I was found to be quite good at it and we decided not to spend more time on this I should just do it. So I auditioned just like everyone else (as you can see and I got the role). I think it is good because I have got long black hair and I can make it longer with props such as hair extensions. I am also young like my target audience so they will be able to relate to me and sympathize with the victim.

Thank you
