Antagonist-
We will cast the antagonist as a male as we want him to look sinister and mysterious as his identity will be hidden this will make the audience feel scared of him. This character is suggested to be the killer. This male will be shown to be in his mid thirties. He will look rugged and dirty as this denotes to the audience that he shouldn’t be in the surroundings that are shown in the film.
The Psycho from the film Psycho is a typical antagonist. The males hidden identity makes the audience feel scared of him. We will use him as an example within our film.
Protagonist-
We will cast the protagonist as a female. This follows the conventions of other horror films as normally the protagonist is presented as a female. She will be married to her partner, Mark. Both these characters will be in their late twenties as they have their own house and mortgage. She will be shown in pale coloured costumes and make up as this connotes her innocence to her audience.
Casey Becker from Scream is a good example of a female protagonist; she is presented within the film wearing pale coloured and pale makeup to show her innocence. We will use her as an example when filming our film.
