Analyzing Character Blog Post #22

 Analyzing Characters 

Hey guys, welcome back to another blog. Today, I will be explaining and analyzing the characters found in our movie opener. Characters are a very important part of a film since they progress the movie and are key to the success of a film. Now to get to the explaining...

Sebastian

So, for my little cousin Emmanuel's character, Sebastian, he is supposed to be a little hispanic boy minding his own business late at night. He then encounters the dead body of Amaar long after he is gone. His character is supposed to symbolize innocence since he is a little boy. He is wearing a puffer jacket, since it is cold and drizzling outside. The colors of the jacket are blue and black, blue mainly symbolizing the cold and stillness of the environment. He is outside because he went for a late-night walk and wanted to clear his mind after being at a chaotic home. His goal is to make a better life for himself. His personality is chill, kind, and very emotional.

The Killer

For my character, The Killer, I am supposed to be a stalker who attacks his victims at night. I am the antagonist of the film. I target those who are alone and vulnerable. I am supposed to symbolize the evil and horrible things in this world. His motivation is to feed my hunger by doing these terrible things. My costume is a dark blue jumpsuit. Again, the dark blue symbolizes the cold and lifeless soul inside of my character. The character's mind is very unstable since he commits these crimes and does not feel any remorse. He holds an axe, which makes him dangerous and able to attack at any moment. The axe gives him power over others since it is a weapon that can cause harm. His personality is ruthless; he has gone through pain and will not stop until his job is finished.

Kyle

For Amaar's character, Kyle, he is supposed to be a high school student walking home late at night. He is the protagonist of the film opener, but since he dies, you can say he was unsuccessful. He is supposed to symbolize the vulnerable and helpless people of the world. He is targeted by The Killer late at night, and since the environment is dark, he does not know what hit him. His motivation is to become a top student and study as much as he can. He has just come back from the public library, since he does not have the money to get something better and closer to home. His mind is very clouded, since he has pressure from his family to become top of his class, and he wants to prove to his family that he is capable. His outfit is a normal teen's clothing, consisting of sweatpants, a black shirt, and Jordans. He also has a backpack, which shows he is coming home late from something revolving around school or his studies.
