For our second evaluation task we had to compare our character to another similar character in another horror film. During this comparison we had to identify the similarities and differences.
Similarities
-Due to both characters being female and at similar age we can also exspect them to react in similar ways. This is shown where both characters panic. We can also see them run away from certant people whereas we would most likely see a male character try to defend hisself.
-Both characters are young vulnerable females which add tension for the audience. This is stereotypical of horror films making the audience feel anxiety.
- Both characters show the same role of emotions in the productions. This helps emphasis the mood and how the audience are expected to feel.
- Both the Characters have issues. "Ella" our main character is homeless and people are after her, this is also shown with the other female character as she is being stalked.
- Both characters wear fashionable clothing to show the time era in which the film was set. (20th century). This also helps to emphasis the audience and its stereotype.
Differences
- Our main character is at a slightly younger age of the one used in "When a stranger calls".
- Due to our low budget the girl from "When a stranger calls" is most definitely a better actor and therefore can express views better than our actor we used.
- The girl from "When a stranger calls" is more attractive, however i believe this because the use of high quality lighting that is more available to the producers who made "When a stranger calls" as they have a higher budget than ours.
- The clothing used by the actor in " When a stranger calls " is more revealing with her body figure whereas our main character is less revealing which helps her to remain more secretive and in affect add tension for the audience as they know very little.
