Above is a screen shot of one of our characters in our horror film, Andrew. Our inspiration and influence to create a character like Andrew is from films such as, 'A Nightmare On Elm Street'. Below is a picture of a teenage boy out of 'A Nightmare On Elm Street' which compares to our picture of a teenager, Andrew as they are both seen to be vulnerable characters. Teenagers alone are seen to be vulnerable and prone to danger. Our character, Andrew, is a stereotypical teenager he likes music and seeing his friends and keeps up with fashion as he wears the stereotypical teenager fashion of a hoodie, whereas the boy below is represented as a 'geek', he doesn’t socialise and is seen in the library a lot, He also is wearing a shirt instead of the stereotypical teenage hoodie or jacket. A stereotypical teenager is seen a lot in horror films which is another key reason as to why we chose to show teenagers and their vulnerability. Generally Teenagers are the age group that are more likely to watch horror films so therefore we decided to include teenagers as we felt it would be more appropriate and effective.
