Character Profiles

Character profiles 

In our short film we have three main characters and two are from the same background. These two characters are meant to be portraying middle - upper class individuals. To enhance this stereotype we are using several props and locations. For example when the female is getting dressed she is wearing a nice black dress and expensive shoes, we have a shot of the female taking the shoes off the floor next to a piano which also helps with the stereotype. 

The two main charaters are dressed appropriately as to the sterotype they are representing, they are mirroring upper middle class early 20's adults. Due to this in the film their conversation and mannerisms reflect this. They are also dressed in appropriate clothing to show what they are like as individuals for example the girl is wearing an expensive dress and shoes and bright red lipstick. The male character is wearing a suit jacket with a shirt with a button down collar and colourful tie. It is smart casual as he also wearing jeans as the rest of the costume with snart casual black boots/shoes. 

Out third character is playing a waiter, i personally think the actor chosen plays the role well as he just seems to fit the sterotype and fits the role correctly. Slightly awkward due to having an affair, the clothing he is wearing is appropriate because they are having drinks in an upper middle class environment, the Royal Automobile private members Club.

The backgrounds of the two main characters we have created are different to the waiter to enhance the realisation of how different they are but also shows how even with the couple enjoying life that nothing is perfect between them because the women is having an affair.

  1. James - your posts are always rather noticeable in that they contain little imagery and are very 2 dimensional. It does take a lot longer to create good quality posts, but it would be rewarded if you did this. You can always revisit your posts and improve them.
