Characters

Young School Girl: Julie Anne Sernat

Julie Anne Sernat is a short young girl who attends college; she fits the part of Vanessa’s character as she looks young and innocent but is at the same time old enough to understand the plot. Her age is very important, if an actual young little girl was to play the part in the short film then it could raise ethical issues and potentially frighten the audience it is aimed at. Julie will wear school uniform during her scene with a bright pink jacket which used as a symbol to cover up her abduction. There will be no need to use any make up in order for her to look innocent and vulnerable.

Internet perpetrator: Anthony Price

Antony Price is a well-respected man who plays the part of Barry; an internet paedophile. Antony is an older man and therefore fits into the physical appearance of the predator. He is dressed in his normal attire which adds to the effect that he looks like a normal guy when in fact he targets vulnerable girls online in this film. He will also wear glasses in order to highlight his old age and make sure he looks as though he is fully concentrating on the computer screen.

Extras:

Vanessa’s school friends:

Keira and Rachael play the part of Vanessa’s school friends. They too are the same age and are dressed in uniform. There characters do not play a very big role in the film however they are used to indicate the time Vanessa spends on the phone texting ‘Barry’.

Second Victim:

 Keira plays a small part at the end of the film when Barry talks about his new internet victim. Keira is again a young girl dressed in uniform to indicate her age.
