Actor Details

For our main task actor, we have chose a member of our group. The main reasons for this is that she fits into the character we are trying to portray: The correct age as our target audience, so can be easy to relate to: 'Dip dyed; hair, etc. and we know that she is easily accessible for filming purposes. 


Character Details

The character that our actor (Rosaline) will be playing, Anna Smith, is a young adult who has not long escaped from a mental institute and has an assumption that she is being followed. Because of this intense plot, the character will be shown to still have the side effects that accompany the drug, Hallucinogen. She becomes more venerable in the 'outside world' and worse throughout the process of finding her 'safe' place.
Anna's past life was quite successful, succeeding in school and had the possibility to have a positive future ahead. This all changed for her the day her parents was the victims of a severe car accident and passed. Whilst trying to deal with her loss, Anna was forced to move in with her aunt, something that was never fully accepted by herself and so tried to rebel: taking drugs, drinking and getting involved with the wrong crowds. After a period of 6 months, Anna's aunt finally found out about her antics, forcing her to attend a rehab programme, something which did not succeed as uncommon withdrawal symptoms occurred, forcing her to be admitted to a mental hospital.
This is where we pick up from in our opening sequence, following her escape from the hospital, showing how she is trying to cope in the 'open world'. If this was a full length film, this scene would then reverse back to the start of her life, showing the audience how and why she became to be in this position.
