Character Development

Planning post focusing on character development 

Character development withing movie openings is important because all the characters set the tone for the entire production and creates expectations for where the story may go. Because of this, developing the characters early is a very important factor for creating a movie production.

Adrianna and I understand the importance of character development and want to create strong characters from the very first second. Upon discussion, we agreed to make scarlet's character growth develop the audiences understanding of the toxic relationship she is in. We see her navigate through her situation and we understand that there is love as well as a strong and deep connection between the two, in addition to the miscommunication and violence that creeps into every loving moment they share, that makes it so hard for her to leave.

We want there to be an understanding that there is a reason she stays but she knows deep down that there is a real need to leave, and how she overcomes her feelings to put herself and her well-being first.

Our protagonist, Scarlett, will begin by wearing lighter colors like white to symbolize her innocence, but slowly her style will change, and she will begin to wear darker colors that emphasize her taking back control of her life and her increase of trust within herself. Her confidence will increase, her lighting and makeup will highlight this.
