Any type of media needs to address a particular audience, and to do this you need to portray a particular social group in a way that is appealing to them. In our opening, by having just one character it leaves the audience waiting to find out more, waiting for us to introduce more characters which is why our opening is appealing to several audiences.
Our actress Amy could quite easily be linked to Susie Salmon from ‘The Lovely Bones’ as they are both very calm, both in a wooded, and secluded area and both in for a big shock that is unexpected.
Stereotypically it is generally a male who is the villain, but in our film you won’t know unless you watch the rest of the film… as we don’t show who our villain is, or whether one actually shows up in the film at all. It’s all to do with what your brain is telling you. It is also mainly females that play the victims in thriller films which leads you to think why? This is generally because women are seen to be weaker than men and an easy target.
