Casting the Dad

On the day of filming we had to do a bit of improving which became successful thanks to BJ who was another person that came for auditions and received the role as the father. Looking back at the script then watching the way that we filmed it I feel that the way we filmed it on the day was a better choice then the shot of just the hand holding the remote. Although BJ was the father he stilled played parts as an extra in some of the other scenes as well.

I do believe that casting BJ as the father and having him as apart of the extras playing in the background was a well thought out idea even if it did only involve the back of him most of the time.
