1. Character profiles. Barnaby. Lucy. We decided to use Barnaby in our film opening because our character resembled a horse rider, therefore she needed a horse to ride. The actress that we used already owned a horse which made it simple, cheaper and more effective. Lucy is the owner of Barnaby which again made it simpler for us as we could include both of them in our film opening. As Lucy is already a horse rider we could use her skills, costume and knowledge to assist us with filming.
