I was starting to worry that I would have to cast myself as the director and main actress since my pool of actors is very limited. But now I won't look like a complete narcissist since my lovely friend Jania Gomez will be playing the main character named Joyce.
The reasoning behind this choice in name is to create an ironic tension between the character's mental state and character. Since the character is going through a depressive state of mind that is hidden by her false facade of happiness, the name Joyce fits perfectly.
Here is a sketch of what I imagine the main character would look like. She is perfectly average in almost every way. Her sense of style does not make her stand out in a crowd, but that's how she wants it to be. Wearing a jacket, blue jeans and sneakers is her outfit of choice to wherever she may go.
Also, I am currently working on the script in terms of dialogue. As for the ending, I have decided that the end of the intro will have Joyce leave the room and pretend to be happy with everything even though the audience knows that is not the case.
