Casting, archetypes, certain look of the characters: Girl

                         

Possible Archetypes for the girl 


  • Child: Could be a literal child or just living like one. Ex: Wally McDoogle, Peter Pan 
  • Innocent: someone who is inexperienced and exposed to evil. Ex: Dorothy Gale 
  • Slave: Does not belong to himself. Ex: Dobby the house elf 
  • Survivor: Pulls through no matter what happens, doesn’t give up
  • Victim: Was hurt by someone or lives in fear that someone will hurt him. Ex: Claireece “Precious” Jones


Actors with suitable appearance to play the main girl character.  

These are just a few actresses we have seen in films, that when thinking about how we want the main girl to look, tied in with these characters.


Amanda Seyfried – her blonde hair gives her an innocent look. She has a child like and doll like appearance with her large eyes and larger forehead. This gives a feeling of her being stuck in her past




Evanna Lynch – again her blonde hair gives her an innocent look. Her pale skin makes her seem like she doesn’t go out side as she is trapped inside. She has very round eyes, giving her a doll-like appearance. In the film ‘Harry Potter and the order of the phoenix’ she plays a girl who is aged around 15. Which is the age of our girl in our film. She is known to be a strange girl in the Harry potter films.
