KH- Casting and Characters

After discussing our idea further, we decided that we are going to require 10 characters instead of 5. There will be 5 Pussycat Dolls as the formed and older group, and then there will be 5 younger Pussycat Dolls. The characters will need to show intertextuality and reference to the Pussycat Dolls themselves, so they must be a similar looking as possible to achieve verisimilitude.For the older versions of the PCD we intend to use ourselves and another 2 girls who we have approached and are willing to participate.

For the younger versions of the PCD, we created posters asking for year 7s and 8s to come to the media room and to audition. Luckily, a group of 5 years 8s turned up and we explained our idea to them and what would be required of them, as well as getting them to write down their school email and tutor group so that further contact could be made. All 5 girls were enthusiastic, and they have featured in our MiniVid for One Direction - One Thing, so we knew they would be reliable and enthusiastic to take part throughout the process.
