Our opening title sequence has 2 main characters which contain a female victim and a male stalker/killer. The female character is portrayed as vulnerable and innocent in order to attract the audience towards the male character to indicate that the female victim is in trouble. The vulnerability is shown through her appearance and personality of innocence. Therefore we casted Shannon as the victim as she suited this role the best and was able to play the role without being questioned if it was suitable for her personality, if we was to cast Shannon as a actress within the horror industry it would be Erin Harsen as she may look small and vulnerable but she has a bloody side to her.
The male character is portrayed as a skilled killer plotting his moves as he follows Shannon. The reason we used the male character as a killer is because he was able dress the part by wearing a hoodie and being able to suit that fit whereas if we put Shannon in a hoodie to portray her as a killer it would not look right due to her appearance. Tyler was our killer and was taller than Shannon therefore this portrayed dominance which led to him being able to take control and kill her. If we had to cast Tyler as a actor within the horror industry it would be Nick Castle as he played Michael Myers in Halloween and within his role he had to play the cold, silent and remorseless killer.
