Reflective Post - Character Inspirations

Mia, Fish Tank. Ambitious, driven and confused, similar to our protagonist in our film opening.

From watching a variety of teen drama's, we were able to understand that the characters play a focal part in attracting the target audience, i.e. teenagers. In this sense, the focal character has to attain certain attributes which makes them relatable or entertaining. Two characters which we found interesting were, Mia, the protagonist in Fish Tank and Jake in Ill Manors. 

Jake, Ill Manors. Attempts to get out of the hood.
