Auditions for the Little Girl - Abbie Smith

This is the audition for Jenna Dinnes.
We found that it would be easier to do a group audition for the mother, father and little girl.

From Jenna's audition we liked how she was able to project her voice.
We found that she didn't have as much confidence as we would want her to be.
She was able to take a certain amount of direction, which we thought could work in the later production of our film opening.

This is the audition for Lauren Radley.

Lauren Radley's audition was really good, she was able to project her voice, and had loads of confidence whilst she was performing.
Even though she was able to have these two things, she didn't fall into the right age range that we wanted for the character, we wanted someone a bit younger to play the part in order to show more innocence. We also had the problem of not being able to get Lauren to the locations at the times that we wanted to film, due to it being within school time.

This is the audition for Angel Mayden.

We auditioned Angel due to the age range that she falls into, she is the perfect age for the part we wanted. Shes very sweet as herself and when we gave her the line to read she was able to do it without a problem at all. We did find a slight lack of confidence but we put it down to her age and shyness. We would have liked her to have projected her voice a bit more just to show us that she was able to do that.

This is the audition for Sophie Thomas.

With Sophie we really liked personality that she was able to put into the character and the projection of her voice. The criticisms that we have with this audition is that we found that she wasn't able to keep the emotions that we want the character to portray within the film. She's also slightly over the age range that we want for the characters which is also a problem.

After looking at all of the auditions for the little girl as a group we decided on Angel to play the part. The reasons for this is because of her age and her ability to part the part how we wanted it to be done. Once she had got over the shyness and had learnt the lines she was able to project her voice perfectly, put emotion into the lines as well as having the confidence.
