Character Profile

Character Profile Number 1: Creegan Donohue

We wanted to show Creegan in a extremely negative view as the stereotypes are often representing the "drug dealer image" so we tried to show him as the very embodiment of the sinister culture of the drug trade.
 
Dark, devious, cunning, cold hearted and above all else, greedy he is a character of volatile and obtrusive nature with his sole aim in life to reap the rewards and benefits of other people’s discomfort and misfortune, primarily making a sizable profit from the drugs that he sells.
 
Sinister by nature, tyrannical and commanding by force it is these attributes that mark the character as one to be viewed with particular discontent, resentment and displeasure from audience members and the other characters alike.

Character Profile Number 2: Toby Scott

Toby the protagonist of our film, unlike the antagonist Creegan, he is more easily relate-able to members of our audience, although many wouldn't relate to his addictive and cold state, they would be include to except his downsides due to his Innocent nature.
 
Less volatile and aggressive than Creegan, the character generally is more oriented towards more usual or otherwise ‘normal’ social behaviour. However, one thing that marks Toby out as acutely different is his tendency to become socially awkward in situations whereby he can become difficult in expressing the correct emotion for the situation that he may find himself in, this often gets him into large trouble in his life due to childish smiles in the face of aggression and blank expressions in time of joy.

We wish to showcase this in our film opening as it is an area of disability similar to autism or aspersers and as we are making a social realism film opening to cover this material will be a new and exciting direction in which to move our film opening.
