Planning: Character Representation - Ms. Begum

Character Representation

My thriller will consist of three significant characters:
-The main girl
-The rapist
-Male nurse

The main character, played by Christine, is an average normal looking girl aged around 18. Her identity will be hidden by making her nameless and by hiding her face with her hair when she is in the mental hospital. Throughout the beginning of our thriller, she will be dressed in bright colours and have neat hair and make up to show that she is the character with good intentions. Then when she is sent to the mental hospital, she will be dressed in white and have messy hair. The change of hair and make up will connote that she has been through a bad situation and doesn't or cant bother to make herself look nice. The body language of this character in the beginning will have a good posture be open to show that she is a friendly and approachable person. After she has been sent to the mental hospital, her body language will be calm, closed and fragile to show that she is not approachable and anti social.

The rapist, played by Trey will have short camera time but a big effect on the main character. This character will be portrayed as a big strong man aged around the 30's. His identity will be hidden by the low key lighting and hoodie that he will be covering his head. the body language of this character will be stiff and aggressive as he is committing an abusive gesture towards the main character. His facial expressions will be both angry looking but smiling as he is getting pleasure out of it and is teasing the girl. The costume will be dark and messy to show that he is less fortunate and has bad intentions.

The male nurse, played by Cee Jay will be the last character shown to be interacting with the main girl. The role of this character is to be looking after the girl in the mental hospital and also dies by the hands of the girl. The costume for this character will be white and neat to connote the good intentions he has. This character will be kind and generous to the character, which makes the audience feel sympathy towards him as they know what the girl is capable of. the body language of this character will be open and have a good posture to show that he is approachable and has good intentions. The facial expressions of this character will be happy and smiley to show that he is a friendly person.

  1. Some good planning here of the different characters who will star in your production. I like how you have discussed elements like their clothing and physical attributes in terms of how you want the audience to respond to them.

    To improve;
    -provide images of the characters that will be playing these roles
