Character Development

Character Development

 




A lot of time was spent making sure that every aspect of the characters helped to develop the film's purpose. 

Sofia- 

Sofia is our main character, the whole film revolves around her. She embodies the energy of someone who is like a "ray of sunshine." She is a sweet young woman who has the perfect life. House, boyfriend, job, she has it all. But even with her having it all she is still as humble and sweet as when she had nothing. She is a kind-hearted, trusted, social, and optimistic person. She is always trying to see the best in people. 

When Sofia pieces everything together about Jess, she is in disbelief. She feels so betrayed by Jess. After this encounter, Sofia doesn't know who to trust in the messed up world she lives in. She enters a stage of fear and refuses to trust anyone.

Luke- 

Luke is your typical jock man who is super focused on his athletics. But he doesn't let it get between him and Sofia. He is a protective, loyal, and observant person. He is so in love with Sofia it is all that matters to him. He is the kind of boyfriend who genuinely loves his girlfriend and wants to see her happy in life. 
When he first meets Jess, imminently, he knows something is wrong and that Sofia won't be safe. A sense of unease is all he feels when speaking to Jess. He tries to warn Sofia, but being the optimistic person she is says there is nothing to be worried about. Luke was going to let this slide because Sofia was excited for a friend. He is hoping that he is worrying for nothing. He worries a lot for the safety of others, especially Sofias. 

Jess- 

Jess is a young woman in her mid-20s who always dresses perfectly. Head to toe in a perfect outfit, with her long hair and smoky makeup. Jess has a history of obsessing over men who are taken, but that information is figured out in the later parts of the film. In our film opening, she moves to a new town in hopes of ending up with Luke. She is seen as a new neighborly person who just wants to fit in at the start of the film and throughout the film it becomes clear she is crazy, and crazy for Luke. She seems normal but is hiding a darkness under her skin. She is embodying a slow-burn horror. 

When Sofia confronts her about being obsessed with Luke, Jess doesn't deny it. Instead, she is relieved that Sofia knows and goes on and on about how Luke should be hers that she is in love with Luke, and how Sofia should not have him.
