Actors

I'm using several actors to play extras, there are two groups of actors that I'm going to use: ballet girls and teenagers. 

The ballet girls will consist of girls, similar height to Name, six girls including Name and all obviously well trained and good at ballet. I've found the ideal five girls at my dance school where we will be filming the scene, therefore the girls will be able to stay behind after their normal lessons finish to film.
Their names are:
-Nandy Harris (14)
-Regan Orr (14)
-Beth Wood (16)
-Emily Boxell (16)
-Natasha Chu (12)

The Teenagers group will consist of a wider variety of actors, to contrast from the strict formality of the ballet class. I'm trying to find as larger diversity in ethnicity, race and body shape as possible.
The actors I've chosen:
-Cecy Bullard (16)
-Francesca Forristal (16)
-Harry White (16)
-Oscar North (16)
-Tom Glenister (16)
-Lizzie Grice (15)
-Millie Isaac (17)
-Calypso April (16)

Name needs to be very elegant looking, thin, relatively short with flowing blonde hair. As typically 'ballerina' as is possible. Defined bone structure and good standard of ballet.

I've chosen Anya Taylor-Joy (16) to play the role as I think she's perfect for it and is a trained dancer herself.


These are my ideas for the kind of exercises the Ballerina's will be doing, both young & old.
