Casting





As we knew the characters in our film was inspired by our very own friends, it was only best to use them for our film. The characters represented in our film is a Loner, Rebel, Bully/misfit, Otaku and Geek. Our main characters are all outcasts within the teenage "status quo".

Priscilla Amankwah "Nicolla"-Loner

Nicolla is the main character of the story, even though she is a loner, she does have an interest in others and can be gentle as long as she doesn't feel offended. She has a "keep myself to myself and no one will bother me" approach to life, which has kept her distant from others throughout her high school life. In her childhood, she was known as the genius piano child, but events of the past have kept her away from her passion of music.






Tosin Oluyadi "Coco"- Otaku
Coco the otaku, is an exuberant teenage girl, with an attachment for all things Japanese. Everything from the music she listens to down to her last "pocky" is from the land of the rising sun. The aspiring weeabo is loud and Proud and always has to have the last of everything. With her motto being "Baka Janai" (I'm not an idiot), as time draws near to become "O.D.D", would she suck up her pride........not likely.





Lorna Dean "Precious"- Rebel
Having done something back in yr 9, known as "that incident", which she is still repaying off to this day, with detention, Precious the Rebel will only go against a no if it is from the authorities, as her goal is to go against all restrictions from the "man", as the youths of today are being imprisoned more and more. Quite friendly amongst her peers, but as an ablutophobe, she rarely ever takes baths because of her fear of bathing.








Amina Koroma "Tuesday" -Bully/misfit
Only one word can describe Tuesday.....Troublemaker. Causing trouble is a natural hobby for her and she doesn't get as big of a thrill from antagonising others. Though this troublemaker can't resist the temptations of discord, she is quite loyal to the ones closest to her and is a genius in disguise, having as much information as a hit man, she knows everything about everyone, so she is always just a blackmail away from an unsuspecting victim.



Stella Anaman "Cynthia"-Geek
Cynthia is an accident prone Geek, who may look smart, but is a long way off from it. Her shy yet ambitious nature, have made her a target for bullies alike, but her misfortune is something that comes along quite handy . With her unusual traits that seem to attract every kind of bully, would this aid, O.D.D in getting there message across?



Sharifa Reynolds "Grace"


Grace is Nicolla's childhood friend, a very outgoing and caring person, who regulary checks up on Nicolla. She is always trying to offer Nicolla wise words of encouragement, though these are not always received well from her. She is always looking out for her friends and loves to make new ones, as she would become the sounding voice of encouragement to the whole group.
