5 min short film part I-pre production

So  guess i can call this my first legit film production project. Writing the script, and everything pre-production, believe it or not, to me anyway, seemed to be the hardest part of the process. Nalisa, Katie and I went through about 9 different concepts, plots. and stories before, with the inspiration of our professor, came up with a working, time compatible story.
I actually began casting right as we were being assigned this project, texting people trying to see who is in town, who is available.  I started out getting in contact with actual theatre students, but somewhere in the conversation, i lost contact with the person, they just didnt reply. I managed to find the 3 actors we needed, but wound up dropping 2, because one had time conflict issues, the other had "a long night" and overslept. I wound up playing the part of the person who overslept...the "frisky" actor.
