Character Backgrounds

     Hello! Today I am going to discuss the characters of my film introduction. There are only two main characters in the introduction of the film, but if  it were a full production there would be a larger cast. 

    The two main characters of my film are the protagonist and the doctor. The introduction won't completely delve into character, but I do want their mise-en-scene elements to play a large part within the film, with some highlights being the colors and the costume designs.

    The first character I want to go over is the doctor. Despite not playing a large role in the beginning in the introduction of the film, he would be a large part of the middle and end of the film, as he is the oncologist of the main character and will guide the protagonist through the treatment. He will nearly always be there for the protagonist and makes sure to support the protagonist when he sees that he's stressed or in need of emotional support. As a result, he would nearly always be happy, upbeat, and outgoing, with the main exception being when he diagnoses the main character with cancer, in which case he would be talking in a more melancholic voice. The odds are that he will most likely be played by me, as I own the clothing for the role. The clothing would look something like this:

    To contrast, the main character would be stressed the moment we see him, having a gray color associated with him. This is because grey is the color that is most associated with anxiety. (Not to be confused with black, which is usually a symbol of power) His character varies depending on the context of the scene. During flashbacks he seems like a jolly character, but normally he'll be extremely stressed, sometimes seeming like he's out of touch with reality. This is shown when the doctor calls for him. The main character will not hear his his name until the doctor has to say it progressively louder. During conversation he would occasionally just space out and whoever he's talking to would have to get his attention again. I imagine he'd look something like this:

    As of the time I am writing this, spring break has just begun, which means the filming will start in only a few days. All of the clothing has been obtained, and we know how the characters will act throughout the introduction. I can't wait to start filming this, as I believe I am going to have a lot of fun editing many of the effects that will convey emotion within my project. (I'm especially excited to show off the music I produced, which I am somewhat proud of)

    Farewell, and thank you for reading! Make sure to look forward to tomorrow's blog post, which may or not contain the audio of my guitar cover of Zero Two's (Kirby) theme!
