Katie Morton had been to visit the Evansville Association for the Blind to prepare for her role to play a girl with no sight. She gained valuable insight from that visit, but on the first day of shooting, she brought some contact lenses from an optometrist that caused her 20/20 vision to be very blurry, to get a better feel for what the world could be like. After that, she no longer needed them and completed all of her "blind" scenes without them.
