Developing the Protagonist

Protagonist

I wanted to do a more in-depth blog post about my protagonist to help me develop her character better. First of all, she will be a 16 year old junior in high school. Her wardrobe mainly contains colorful shirts with jeans. The reasoning behind this chosen color palette is that I want the contrast between how she is in the beginning and end of the film to be very apparent. I created her bright color palette for the beginning of the film which is shown below:

Within the film opening I want her to mainly stay with these bright colors as her bubbly and positive personality is shown, but near the end of the opening she will be slightly duller once she starts to become aware of the feelings of her peers around her. Within the color palette, the film will show society around her dulling her sparkle and uniqueness.

My Thoughts

As week four of working on this project has begun, I definitely have to focus much more as this week is the stepping stone leading to the shooting process. This is a very important time for getting stuff done and finalizing my plan. By Tuesday I will begin doing my storyboard and writing my script which I will complete by the end of this week. This will ensure that I am prepared to begin the shooting process next week.
