Character cast for our trailer

Character cast for our trailer:

mainly we had only 2 characters within our movie as we decided to keep it simple and easy, with just the protagonist and antagonist being present in our opening 2 minutes. with this in mind we were able to do much more in terms of tasks and were able to focus on many more elements of our trailer. we took inspiration from different horror-themed movies to put together the props and stage for what would be the basis of our horror-themed opening 2 minutes. we took inspiration from notable movies such as Friday the 13th, as well as a anime, called Future Diary, which involved the protagonist being chased by a crazy stalker. our main props included a trench coat, a horse mask - we did initially want a hockey mask, but this wasn't within our range of things available. and a white t-shirt torn and covered in fake blood. within our trailer these props would connote a lot, mostly connoting violence, isolation and a immense vulnerability of the protagonist and how he is helpless against the power of the antagonist. we decided to add some human in-depth emotion to protagonist's character, we wanted to differ from the stereotypes in which there is a bunch of teenagers all of whom are helpless against the main antagonist. with the nerdy guy sometimes being killer second to last. so instead we had one vulnerable, rather emotionless character.
