We chose Lizzie to play as Hannah as she had the posture of the character we were thinking of, quite small, brunette and pale and has some of the characteristics.
For back up, we chose Sophie to play as Hannah as she gives the same characteristics, however, she gives a different approach to Hannah as she gives a more confident look than a more nervous look.

For the role of the student, we chose Shannon, who in fact, has very similar characteristics of the character, her dress sense and behavior (including the way she talks) are similar to the students, which gives a rich depth and realistic view of human behavior.

For the role of the teacher we were not allowed to choose a student nor any person who was not age of being a teacher. And so, we chose a teacher who we were close to and had similar personalities for our character who was Steve. He is formal, welcoming, calm and friendly which fits the character very well.

The receptionist, we chose Erica, as she has the figure of young adult and blends in within the office. We also chose Erica as the other Receptionists didn't want to be filmed, but overall, Erica does have similar characteristics.
