I'm in preproduction for my first zombie film, "Forest Ridge."
I'm only sixteen years old, finally got an XL, and this film already has a crew of 50 including actors, camera crew, make-up crew, costume crew, hair crew, background extras, etc. The script called for a little blonde girl, which I had the hardest time finding. We finally found somebody, and she's perfect in the role! She behaves perfectly during rehearsals and script readings, but as soon as we're done, she's bouncing off the walls, and can't keep quiet. I'm pretty sure that she'll be good on set, but is there any way to successfully work with wild children? My theory is that when she has something to do, she won't be as wild. Is this common? And any advice on working long hours with kids? Thanks in advance, I appreciate everyone's imput!
