G321: Character Profiles

We have created character profiles for the main characters in our film. Even though our opening only features on character, we have also thought about the other characters that will appear later on in the film and who will also be considered as main characters. We have created these profiles so that we have a clear image in our heads of what we want our character to be and act like - as this needs to be portrayed clearly to the audience. It will also help us to later consider what type of actor we want to play the characters.
