Casting was actually fun once we stopped really overthinking it. We realized the easiest and most realistic option was to just use our own group as the actors. We already know and get the story, the mood, and it’ll be better than trying to get random people to act serious in a horror scene.
Roles:
For Amara, we picked the person in our group who can act quietly but still show emotion through facial expressions. Since Amara isn’t super talkative, we needed someone who can communicate a lot without having to say much.
For Jenna, this role automatically went to the person with the stronger personality, someone loud, pretty confident, and fits that “leader of the group” mentality.
For Kayla (me), I’m playing Kayla. She’s basically the follower. The one who hypes Jenna but doesn’t fully think for herself. I fit the role because I can play that “mean girl sidekick” attitude. Plus, I already get the dynamic with Jenna and Kayla, so it’s easier for me to act it out.
For Maya, we chose the person who’s more observant and kind of calm compared to the rest of us. She’s not aggressive like Jenna or Kayla, so we needed someone who can play more of a low-key shady without doing too much for the scenes.
