Ethnicity

The amount of people willing to participate in my film was fairly low, either due to the fact that they were already taking part in someone else's film or that they lacked the confidence to act in front of the camera. My opening does not feature any non-Caucasian characters however this is only the beginning of a film and other ethnic groups could be featured later on to attract a wider audience. 

Tim Burton  has been criticised for only using Caucasian actors/actresses for main parts. For example in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (2005), all the golden ticket winners were white. Other films by Tim Burton with an all white cast include Beetlejuice (1988), Edward Scissorhands (1990) and Ed Wood (1994).
