Characters - Trailer

We had another meeting to workout what characters we were going to show in the trailers and work out the different characterises for them. Through doing this it allowed us to develop our soap and the storyline of our trailer.

Female 1 – Jessie

• Stereotypical girly girly
• Popular
• Cares about her appearances
• She is dating Zac
• The uses of her props, customs ect will be pink and glinting such as her note book being pink with her name in glitter
• In the trailer the audience will see Jessie and Zac together. However Jessie is texting someone but the audience do not see what it says then there is a shot of Billy. Doing this leaves the storyline open being that she could be cheating on Zac or with exams, drugs ect.

Female 2 – Elizabeth

·        Stereotypical nerdy

·        School orientated – worries about work

·        Dislikes her name being short to Lizzie, however the other female characters caller her that to annoy her and show the way they do not get on

·        However she likes Zac being that he is the only character that is nice to her, means that she has a likes crush on him. This is shown to the audience through the use of her note book having the typical writing of Zac name with love heats all over it.

Female 3 – Sarah

·        Best friend/sidekick to Jessie

Male 1 – Zac

·        Stereotypical male

·        Sporty

·        Popular

·        Is dating Jessie

·        Him and Ryan are wearing the same football jackets, holding a football and both having a JD bag.  Using these elements for both Zac and Ryan with fit with conventions, putting over their characterises and connoting their
 friendship.  

Male 2 – Ryan

• Zac friend
• Sporty
• Popular
• Has matching mise-en-scene such as the football jackets.

Male 3 – Billy

• Anonymous
• The audience are not shown anything about Billy apart from that Jessie has texted him. Doing this keeps the storyline open for the audience and gets their attaches, drawing them in to the soap.
