Characters!

Hello Blog!

Today I’m going to talk about character development.

So I said before there are three main characters in the film opening: our main character Atticus, our princess Aurora, and our villain Kai.

Atticus:

Atticus is a very interesting character as we see in the film opening. His biggest character trait is that he has a lot of difficulty separating the fictional world from the real world. He starts a really nerdy guy who wears a cloak as a security blanket. He believes that he is a hero in a fantasy comic throughout the film. He’s going to grow as a character and begin realizing that not everything is a fantasy story. You don’t always end up being a hero and you don’t always rescue the princess. Throughout the film, he is going to grow into the hero that he imagines himself to be even if it isn’t in the exact same way he thinks.

Aurora:

Aurora is also very interesting character. In the beginning of the film, she’s dating Kai who is a very grungy and edgy sort of looking character. Since she doesn’t know who she is at the beginning of the film, she dresses to mimic her boyfriend and sort of quiet and follows what he says to do. Throughout the film she’s going to grow into the strong character that she is. While Atticus sees her as a princess who needs to be rescued, she realizes that she’s a strong character and she doesn’t need anyone to rescue her. She really finds herself through the film and has a lot of character development that is not only shown through her personality, but also in her hair and her clothing.

Kai:

Kaiser third character and our villain. He doesn’t really develop that much as a character through the film. He is meant to serve as the main bully and villain that helps Atticus realize that maybe not everything is a fantasy. He’s also supposed to serve as a bad boyfriend who makes her realize that she’s really strong and she doesn’t really need anyone to tell her what to do. While he doesn’t really change, he doesn’t serve a very important purpose in the film, he is a character that leads to the other characters realization of who they are, and he further helps the other characters development as who they’re really supposed to be.
