CASTING

 Before deciding on Duncan, we went through a process of figuring out who the idea person to cast would be. These were some of the people we considered for the role.

Sofian: He was considered due to him fitting the physical appearance of what
we wanted our main character to be. We didn't pursue this casting choice much
further due to him not being able to find time for the project.

Kareem: He was considered for the role due to his interest in video games,
as well as our original idea being positive effects of video games through
its effects concerning health, including their ability to combat epilepsy. As an
epileptic, Kareem would have been an ideal person to follow if we were still
pursuing this angle.

Shahnoor Sayyed: He was considered due to both him fitting the profile
of the character as well as interest and knowledge in the subject matter,
making it easier to make the scripted segments more factual than fictional.
He declined to scheduling conflicts.

Hamaad: He was considered due to his interest in the subject matter, and
despite not being quite the stereotypical profile we are looking for due to
lack of glasses he would still have made a great main character. Unfortunately
Hamaad could not find the time for the project.

Pranav: He fit both the profile of the character as well as has an interest in
video games, but didn't express an interest in the project.

Yamaan: Again, he fit the profile and had an interest in the subject matter but
did not express an interest in the subject.
