Casting Decisions
After having feedback when showing people our title sequence including only Izzie the reviews stated that it was unoriginal and could have used another person in order to make it more interesting. This is why we have also decided to cast Ashleigh as the girl who is being possessed, and forced to self harm as we thought it would a creepy twist in our sequence. As both Izzie and Ashleigh have dark hair, we thought that this would make them more creepy and in some shots the audience is unable to see their faces, making the sequence unpredictable and creepy.

We have chosen Izzie to cast in our opening title sequence as she has dark hair and is pale skinned so it will come across more scary, and we decided to use non-linear editing in our opening title sequence which meant that we focused on the titles and shots so it meant that we only needed one person in it and Izzie fitted into the character. As we wanted to base our 'killer' on the image of a Yuri, which we chose to do after watching The Ring, we chose Izzie as she has pale skin and dark hair, therefore deciding to stick with the stereotype of a Yuri which we believed to be a more unusual type of horror.
