The dilemma that others keep bringing up, is whether or not the audience will be able to follow our lead characters because there are so many roles in this film. On the page, it's tough. We move from room to room through a multi-level location with its own personality, meeting our ensemble cast of ten as well as approximately ten more secondary characters. Surround them with about fifty extras in their own costumes and this is the problem.
The answer: On screen, each will jump out at the audience. The movie goer will remember them, not only for their own story but because the costumes of our leads give insight into their character or story. For instance, our girl looking for Mr. Right is a "Stud Finder". Apropos. Our homeless guy REALLY IS homeless and Stud Finder falls for him even with all her rules.
Aside from the calculated costume design, the actors that are going to be cast will also embody and give a distinct voice to each of our leads. I will be working with the best improv actors we can get and together we will give each character that much more a unique voice.
Although there are many party attendees with their own one liners, the real story takes place in dialogue and action of our main characters and I'm confident audiences will be captivated by their story.
