Our friend Ricardo was supposed to play the stalker. He is super tall and lanky looking and that is a classic horror silhouette. But due to some scheduling conflicts with his job and homework, he was unable to attend either day of filming we had planned.
So after a quick team meeting between the three of us, we asked Ricardo if it would be easier for him to stay home, so he isn't stressed about homework or his job.
It was fairly easy to find a replacement for Ricardo. Melina is tall and since she is the editor, she was free during filming to do whatever I told her to do. That is how Melina became our stalker and she did an amazing job at standing ominously.
