Script (Ashley Ransom)-

As we don't have a planned script or any dialogue for this character in the opening, we decided to have a conversation with one of us to get the idea of their confidence and personality.

Script (Laura Johnson)-

"So I met this boy on the internet and he's really hot. Then he gave me his number and I well think he could be the one"

With this script we didn't give them a specific tone of voice to use, allowing them to be natural and interpret what they thought felt right.
Which we then have decided Ellie Taylor would play this part.











Freddy Jones part-

We decided as a group to ask everyone to improvise doing something as if they were a hacker or stalker. We asked them to be acting watching a person on a laptop, to see how they would react and interpret their view of a hacker. This would then allow us to see different types of hackers and how an audience would either want to view them, or use stereotypical behaviour.

This was then successful, as we had 3 different styles to choose from, and the actor that we preferred was Martin James.
