characters...

In our case, we only have one character. We created a character profile for him so that we can better visualize how he will be able to portray our vision, as well as to help us in planning out his outfit and overall attitude/vibe.

Character Profile...

Name: Hunter

Actor: Eduard Tuns

Role: Main character

Costume: He will be wearing a neutral beige toned outfit, to make him almost blend in with the background. A pair of wide legged trousers, a plain shirt, a black cardigan and a pair of sneakers. While doing our research and brainstorming ideas we found a couple of outfits on pinterest that fit the vibe we are going for. We wanted the outfit to be very simple, and kind of drab so it looks realistic, and like he was just wearing these around the house.

Reasons for choosing Edi: We want someone that will fit the mysterious vibe we are going for. Edi’s big fluffy hair will help us cover and protect his identity until the final reveal, leaving the audience on the edge of their seats. His stature and height also play a part in this, overall he really holds the air of a person you might see running throughout a multitude of different locations. He is long and lanky, these features play a critical role to our main character’s aura and will be useful for when we film medium shots of certain features such as his legs, arms and back profile. Also, Edi happens to have the same body type and hairstyle as our teammate Evanna which really helps us in the last scene of the opening when there are "two Edis".

Our initial choices...

Initially, the first person to come to mind was our colleague Dan, with whom some of us have worked with in the past on various media related projects. However, we thought this might be difficult because he is also working on his own media coursework and it would be a hassle to organize days in which everyone is available for shooting.

Next, we thought we could use Evanna, who looks similar both in height, hair and stature to Edi, but since she is part of our team and primarily believes she’s better off behind the camera with filming, this wouldn’t be possible.
