The actors that feature in
our film opening will have different characteristics for the different roles.
For the killer we wanted a tall & muscular male, it wouldn’t matter what he
looked like because we would conceal his identity and not let the audience know
who he was. We wanted him to be tall & muscular because they give the
impression of power and dominance and also emphasise them, also using the
camera effectively would help do this too.
For the victim we wanted a small & skinny male, again it wouldn’t matter what he looked like because we plan to cover it in fake blood, but as long as it showing that he’s quite inferior and doesn’t really have control over the situation, we would also use effective camerawork to show this. These characteristics are stereotypical because the bad guy always over-powers the victim and wants to inflict pain or suffering into their lives because of a past event. The victim isn’t really stereotypical because he doesn’t have any strengths, he gets beaten and hurt badly by the killer and can do anything to save himself. We got these ideas from several thrillers like Seven and Momento because it uses the stereotypes well and it has a good use of actors.
