After some consideration into who my actors and actresses will be I have decided to change the name of 'George' (one of the stock characters) to 'Georgina' so that the character will be a girl instead of a boy. I believe this still makes sense in terms of my narrative and if anything works better simply because it shows that Emily has a male friend and a female friend.
Most teenagers and young adults have friends who are male and female so they may feel like they can relate to Emily more seeing that she has two friends (one male and one female).
Logistically I currently have 2 actresses and 1 actor who are able to act in my trailer so it makes sense to change a character to suit the genders of my actresses/actors. In addition to this Georgina is only as stock character so it doesn't matter so much that her name has changed.
