character representation- Rapheal

Rapheal 

  • clothing- Raph is wearing what a stereotypical boy of his age would wear, we can see throughout the film he changes his clothes but they are all around the same style and colour to make sure that there is no confusion caused to the audience. From this clothing we can see that his is represented as being very young and therefore the audience can understand and use their recognition to figure that the film will included all that of a drama genre. We got Raph to wear the hat and the scarf so that we could cover as much of his face as possible without making it obvious that we are trying to keep him a mystery. 
  • good/bad?- the opening of our film shows Raph to a very confused, angry boy with an extreme short temper. From the first few minutes we cant quite see whether he is a character that we can route for of whether he a character that we should be against. by the end of the opening we start to feel sorry from him as we can see the fact that he is starting to regret what he has done and when he wakes up in bed we start to feel sorry from him in some manner. This is why we have filmed so many point of view shots to help the audience feel as if they are him helping them to understand what he is feeling. 
  • age/profession- Raph is around the age of 18 and as an audience we can see this obviously by the clothes that he wears and the body language that he portrays. Although we never hear him speak in the opening the way that the setting compliments the urban sound around him we imagine him to have that stereotypical London accent. we cannot yet see what profession he has, but it is not that relevant to the story. 
  • personal life- from the fight scene the audience can tell that he is obviously a boy that has been through a lot and that he is obviously struggling in day to day life meaning his personal life may be quite hard. 
  • personality- we see a big personality from Raph, we can see that he is a very aggressive boy that needs a lot of attention. we see that he is putting on a big front to make everyone feel that he is a very strong person, but after when he is walking along the street we can see that hi is a very withdrawn person thats trying to intimidate people to make himself feel better.
