Character Representation(Hartt)

Character Representation

Representaion: How someone is presented or judged by the audience from their clothing, background, attitudes etc.

The victim:

The name of our victim is Grace Davies which is played by Daisy Morecroft. She is a seventeen year old girl of an English ethnicity. She will come across as a young vulnerable girl which will be shown by her white clothing, blonde hair and blue eyes which will assosiate with innocence. As her parents are divorced she comes across as a very emotional character but manages to hide the thoughts from the past. The character is someone that the audience can relate to and understand the emotion she is going through which will create an impact on the audience throughout the opening sequence. Grace is seen to be alone throughout the scene but there appears to be strange events and noises happening around her which she then becomes frightened and helpless.

The Antagonist:

The anotagonist in our scene is Andrew Davies, who is the father of Grace Davies (victim) is a mentally twistsed character who seeks revenge. He is a lonely and troubled man in his mid 40's after suffering from a divorce with his wife. The jealousy of his ex wife turns into revenge towards the daughter. This is infact unknown to the audience until the end which questions the viewers as to why he is doing this throughout the thriller. This makes him a less relatable character but is however conventional as he is a suspenseful character that puts uneasiness upon the victim. In the opening sequence his identity in unknown and unseen. Although he isnt revealed instantly within the scene his presence is clearly suggested.
