Brief summary of each character/character representations

I have decided in my planning to include a brief summary and an individual picture of each of the characters in my film.


The Killer - George Bayman

• My group and I have chosen to use George Bayman as we feel he is the best person to play the killer. 
• George is tall and hunk and he will be represented as the villain, scary, intimidating, terrifying and frightful. 
• George will be dressed in black as this is a stereotype of how killers are usually portrayed, he will also be wearing black gloves and a balaclava to make his face invisible to not give his face away and which will keep the audience tense.

• A similar character that is a good representation of a 'killer' is Michael Myers who played the leading role in halloween. The way that George (Killer in my own film,) and Michael in halloween are portrayed are very similar, both characters are out to stalk and kill people in the neighborhood, and to the give the audience a vibe to be scared of that character or aware of them. 
• Their clothing is quite similar, how Michael wears gloves in the film which gives the audience a thought that he's trying to hide his trace marks, this is similar to how George in my own film will be portrayed, and also how they both wear dark clothing which is stereotypical to how killers should be portrayed and represented in horror films. 

Main Character - Emma

• Emma will be represented as a vulnerable, scared character who shows emotion which is stereotypical how most main girl characters in horror films are portrayed. 
• Emma will be dressed in a cardigan and pyjama bottoms to show her character as liking to be chilled and comfy in what she is wearing, Emma will also have little make up on to represent her character.

• A similar character that I would base Emma on would be Shannon Sossamon who plays the main girl in one missed call. 
• I have chosen Shannon Sossamon as a representation of the character Emma, because both characters are portrayed as the vulnerable victim. 
• Both characters wear similar clothing, and little make-up to show their vulnerability.

Bel - Emma's sister

• My group and I have decided to use Bel as one of the main characters being played as Emma's sister as we feel that she will be excellent for the part! As myself and Bel are sisters in real life we feel that it will make our film look more realistic considering that we are both playing sisters in the film. 
• Bel will be represented as out going, kind, bubbly, friendly and sociable. We will be able to tell that Bel is sociable as she comes home from a friends house later on in the night. 
• Bel will be dressed as casual/dressy which will represent her personality. 

• A similar character that I have chosen to represent the character Bel is Silver from the American TV show 90210. 
• Both characters are portrayed as out going, party girls, and bubbly. 
• They both dress in a similar way and are both at a similar age. 

Ben - Ambrose

• My group and I have chosen to use Ambrose (Ben, Emma's boyfriend) as one of the main characters. In my own opinion I would say that my group and I have a strong relationship with Ambrose which will make our acting look a lot more realistic to the audience. 
• Ben will be portayed as the stereotypical boyfriend hero. 
• Ben will be dressed in Pyjama bottoms and either a dressing gown or a jumper. Ben will be represented as, Loving, kind, humorous and out going. 

• A similar character i would base Ben on would be Bobby (Scott Porter), who plays the boyfriend hero in prom night. 
• The way that Ben and Bobby are similar, is they both play the 'hero boyfriend' and are both portrayed in a similar way, caring, rescuer, knight in shining armor and are a similar age to each other.
