Evanna - cut from the film

On reflection, we have decided not to have Sophie's mother, Evanna, in our short film. This is so that we do not have to rely on other actors in our film schedule. We felt that this decision would be hugely beneficial to our production.The scenes in which Evanna is pressuring Sophie will be replaced with Sophie forcing herself to dance, alone in the dance studio. This allows the audience to focus more strongly on Sophie's character and allows them to connect more strongly with her emotions. It also hints at the question of her state of mind. We also feel that a mother pressuring her daughter fits too much within the stereotype of the film, and we wanted ours to be slightly different. This will make the film more edgy and individual.
