The characters in our film

We thought carefully about which characters we wanted in include in our film, what they were like, what they would look like, their relationship to the protagonist and their roles in the film. We created character profiles for the characters which were going to be in the opening so that we could decide specifically what they were going to look like/wear for our opening.

Protagonist and "Princess": (IN OPENING)

Hero and Helper: (IN OPENING)



Villian:
Steve Turner
Steve is a bad tempered individual who resorted to alcoholism when his wife, Emma's mother passed away. Steve attempted to raise Emma but was ignorant to her needs and feelings. He is a bad mannered and rude individual with a poor relationship with Emma.

Dispatcher:
Tiff Lawson
Tiff is a student at Emma's school who is extremely similar to Emma (this shows to the audience that there will always be others in a similar situation and that you can never tell who is actually suffering from the outside). They both share the same therapist (Jo) who brings them together and they begin to share experiences. Tiff (alongside Harry) persuades Emma to make changes with her step father. Tiff is quiet, polite and tends to draw back from social situations.

Helper/Donor:
Emma and Tiff's counsellor Jo
Jo is a therapist who deals with troubled teenagers. She has a calm and inviting personality which allows Emma to open up to her on a deep level. She is middle-aged and a typical "aunt figure" to everyone.
