Cast Notes (Marian Hassan)

CHARACTER: Faraz Maqbool - Antagonist
AGE: 20
ROLE: Plays the role of Edward Wolfe the bullied teenage studnet who finally has enough of being a victim and seeks revenge against his enemies in a violent gruesome way.
RESONS FOR WHY THEY WERE GIVEN THIS ROLE: As a group we decided that Faraz suited this role perfectly because he is tall and quite wide built, he also has an intimidating stature. It took us quite some time to come to this decision seeing as Gareth Hawkes was eager to play this role, but we believe that in most common thrillers/ horrors e.g 'Freddie vs Jason' the antagonist is usually bigger than the protagonist and looks like they will defeat the victims easily.
We also thought that because Gareth is shorter than the other cast members it would look very humourous to see him chasing them around with a knife, and we would prefer it to be believable.



CHARACTER: Taiwo Giwa - Protagonist
AGE: 19
ROLE: Plays the role of Toby a student who continuously terrorised Alex and made him feel excluded, he was once the antagonist towards Alex until Alex flipped the script and Toby suddenly becomes the protagonist.
REASONS FOR WHY THEY WERE GIVEN THIS ROLE: We decided to give Taiwo this role because he is quite built so he could have intimidated Alex (Faraz) in the past, but at the same time he is not bigger than him because we want our antagonist to appear the most threatening. He also attends Havering College so we can easily reach him.



CHARACTER: Prisca Vungbo - Protagonist
AGE: 17
ROLE: Plays the role of Carla another student who was cruel to Alex because he was different but now realises the tables have turnded. She also runs with Toby to escape Alex's revenge.
REASONS FOR WHY THEY WERE GIVEN THIS ROLE: We gave her this role because we needed a female who looks quite cheeky and loud mouthed to portray a female who can actually bully a bigger male, and Prisca suited this role perfectly seeing as that is her personality, outspoken and quite confrontational. She also attends Havering College so it was no problem for her to act for us anytime.



CHARACTER: Gareth Hawkes - Protagonist
AGE: 17
ROLE: Plays the role of Derek another bully who was unfortunately caught first and brutally stabbed to death by Alex.
REASONS FOR WHY THEY WERE GIVEN THIS ROLE: We chose Gareth for this role because he is physically the smallest of all our cast, we also thought that him dying goes against the stereotype that 'the black guy always dies first' because he is white.





CHARACTER: Iffrah Sessay - Protagonist
AGE: 17
ROLE: Plays the role of a student who is sitting by the computer quietly doing her work and all of a sudden Edward Wolfe comes from nowhere and slices her neck with a knife; she dies instantly.
RESONS FOR WHY THEY WERE GIVEN THIS ROLE: Sh was available at the time we needed her and sh had no problem woth acting as long as her face was not seen and she did not have to say anything.




CHARACTER: Akelah Wallace - Car Driver
AGE: 18
ROLE: Drives her car out of the car park and accidentally hits Edward Wolfe down to the ground.
REASONS FOR WHY THEY WERE GIVEN THIS ROLE: We gave her this role because she is a licensed good driver who attends Havering College and is able to control the car well.
