Sarah Cast

Goresome news. The role of Sarah has been cast. Several weeks ago DWE and Barry Thomas posted an add in Shooting People requesting a female lead. From the start we made prospective applicants aware that it was a non paid position and that we would prefer a local actress. As the film will be shot across a period of time we envisioned problems with cast and crew travelling long distances. After a few 6 o'clock starts to travel across country to film blood and guts all day then a long journey back, the enthusiasm may wane.

After sifting through the replies Kris settled on a couple of likely prospects. Through emails and phone conversations the best candidate appeared to be Ruth King. Ruth has a history in theatre and was keen to move into film. Only one problem - she lives in Manchester and its a fair trip from there to Leicester. Many discussions ensued over the weeks and a decision took time. However Ruth's sheer enthusiasm for acting and the project, her impressive acting ability and her positive attitude really won us over. So welcome on board Ruth!

Everyone involved in this kind of low/no budget film needs to be really into the project and Ruth certainly is. We went with our gut instinct and are convinced this will work out.
