ACTRESS
CASTING 
Actor: Jacob Brown 
Character: Damien Ridgeway 
Jacob was cast as Ridgeway as he is 
a keen actor with lots of experience. 
He looks sadistic, scary and psychotic 
which is essential for the role. The beard 
allows him to look older which is needed 
for Ridgeway. It was a pleasure to cast 
Jacob in the role after he showed much 
enthusiasm for the film and character.
CASTING 
• Name: Jack Dickson 
• Character: Sergeant Green 
• Jack was cast as Green as he can play an 
authority figure needed for Green. He is young 
which was a key reason in his casting.
CASTING 
• Name: Ben Lister 
• Character: Detective Inspector Connor 
• Ben was cast as Connor as he can play an 
authority figure needed for Connor. He is young 
which was a key reason in his casting.

BEN
CASTING 
• Name: Ben McNamara 
• Character: Sargent Miller 
• Ben was cast as Miller as he can play an 
authority figure needed for Miller. He is young 
which was a key reason in his casting. As a keen 
army supporter, this role is suited to Ben and 
he will be able to use his knowledge to expand 
the role.
CASTING 
• Name: Karen Dickson 
• Character: Lucy’s Mother 
Karen was cast as Lucy’s 
mother as she fits the age 
range of the character. 
Due to the character 
being in one scene the 
casting was ideal for a 
short scene.
CASTING 
• Name: Brett Dickson 
• Character: Lucy’s Step-Father 
Brett was cast as Lucy’s Step- 
Father as he fits the age range 
of the character. Due to the 
character being in one scene 
the casting was ideal for a short 
scene.

LOCATION- SCHOOL 
These shots are the 
location shots for the 
scene outside the 
school. The top two 
shots are the main 
shots from the scene. 
We chose the 
positioning as it is a 
large area allowing for 
clear shot taking and 
filming.
LOCATION- POLICE STATION 
We used the police station 
as it is a believable setting 
for the arrest of Ridgeway. 
It will convey to the 
audience that Ridgeway 
is a criminal and show he 
is the antagonist from the 
start.

LOCATION- JACK’S HOUSE 
We used Jack’s House because it is a 
rural house, this signifies abandonment 
and mystery. It allows the audience to 
feel more emotion for Lucy. The house 
also has land we can utilise to make our 
scenes look rural/country.
PROPS 
We used a rocking chair as it is a 
convention horror prop and it also 
adds elements of fear to the 
character. 
By using a music box we can 
incorporate creepy music into our 
trailer. The music box is the main 
association between Ridgeway and 
Lucy. This allows the audience to 
create greater tension as they can see 
and hear the music box before Lucy in 
scenes. 
By using a laptop we are using an 
everyday tool used by young adults. It 
allows the audience to relate to Lucy 
easier and guess her age.

COSTUME 
This is some of the costume that 
Ridgeway will wear. We will use 
plain black trousers as they are dark 
symbolising death and darkness. 
We will also use black gloves to 
give the character some mystery. 
The hat will conceal the characters 
face more adding to the mystery of 
the character.
