This image of one of the characters shows a brief example of what kind of characters are involved in the film. The character wears dark clothing, illustrated by the black hoodie he is wearing. This connotes anonymity, which suggests he is hiding something. We chose dark, unrevealing clothes as it keeps the characters identity hidden which is the main aim of the sequence.

(Redone the animation and embedded it, if it still doesn't work then I'll write it up in a different way)

Character Profiles




17
Male
Personality: Intelligent
Looks: Dark, brown straight hair  
Occupation: Unemployed/at College

This character is quite secretive and keeps to himself, But he looks somewhat innocent and suspicious sometimes when he keeps himself hidden away. He is intelligent especially with computers but keeps that hidden away around his friends.

Music & Sound


We have decided to use this as our opening soundtrack for the title sequence of our film. This soundtrack is royalty-free dubstep/drum and bass track, with a slight trance-feel to it. Technology is generally quite a 'dark' concept so we decided to go with a fast tempo and low pitched soundtrack. There are various 'drops' which can be synced with our shots to create a realistic effect, and keep the tempo rising.



This sound effect is the sound of typing on a keyboard. It allows the creation of an eerie atmosphere due to the echoing and isolation of the typing. This helps to show the anonymity of the character.

Costume Ideas



Costume

This costume is a simple combination of a dark coloured hoodie and dark jeans, this is mainly to conceal their identity, however it also indirectly emphasises their importance in society, as the dull colours and simplicity of their clothes indicate they may be reasonably insignificant.
