Characters Profile

There is a wide variety of characters within films nowadays since the genres of films just keep on expanding therefore particular genres like to keep to same characters so that us as the audience will know straight away what genre it is and won't get confused, for example;

Rom-Com consists of:

-Characters of both genders
-Variety of sexuality
-Loved-up Couple
-Sexy Women/Man
-Funny Women/Man
-Rich Women/Man
-Embarrassing parents
-Younger siblings

and many more

Horror Consists of:

-Villain
-Hero
-Victim
-Emergency Services

On the other hand our picked genre 'Thriller' consists of:

-Villian
-Hero
-Victim
-Emergency Sevices
-Parents

Therefore we thought it would be a good idea to not change our characters and stay with a Villain, Victim, Parents and an investigator for our genre because within a 'Thriller' you cant have romantic comical characters because then it would seem surreal and not a thriller, so by sticking to same genred characters it will be easier for our audience to understand the plot of the film.

As you can see below I (Elizabeth) have drawn some ruff character sketches below of the following characters we think will suit our genre, also us as a group have included key words underneath the drawings to represent what we think the personality of the character may be like, what they may look like and what they may wear etc.
