Organising The Cast

After the christmas holidays we set the challenge for ourselves to have organised our actors for the title sequence before shoot day. The worst thing would be to get to the day and still be unsure who exactly is carrying out what role. So we decided after having created a character list and decided who we wanted to play each role we sent an email out to all cast members so they could notify their teachers that they would be missing lessons due to the filming on the day and so they could receive a blue card and have it signed by any teachers early. This prevented any mix ups and meant that when it cam to shoot day we were prepared and the actors and extras all had the go ahead to miss lessons.
