Film - Characters

Lily:

Nancy is playing the part of Lily. The audience doesn't know much about Lily as she is only seen in the flashback committing suicide. By the facial expressions and emotion she shows on her face during the flashback shows viewers that she is a very troubled teenager who is shutting her friends out of her pain. As it is clear that Nancy's character is very distressed we put her in very a very dressed down outfit with greasy, unwashed  hair and made her make up look like it had been left on from to night before just to add a more realistic effect.

Jess:

Inez is playing the role of Jess in the Film. Jess, a confident and mature 16 year old who acts like the mother figure of the group. To show her as this balanced teenager, the film shows her calling 2 other characters, planning and preparing for the day ahead. Inez will be wearing black clothes and shoes with her perfect appearance. This emphasises the fact that she is the perfected friend out of the group.

Lucy:

I am playing the role of Lucy in the film. Lucy, is one of the most unorganised characters out of the group. Her personality shows a slight irrational side (this can be seen when she is throwing clothes in her boyfriend's room and hitting him in bed). She is shown in the film as unorganised as it appears she has woken up late and awakes to missed phone call from Jess. Even though she looks like a bit of a mess when she is at her boyfriend's house she doe manage to pull on some neat black clothes and even know this is not shown, she is able to put make up and do her hair on the way to the funeral in a rush.

Hannah:

Libby is playing the role of Hannah in the film. Hannah like Jess is one of the more organised and together characters. We first see Hannah already up and out of bed waiting to leave her house. Showing the audience that she is prepared and ready for the day ahead. Hannah's make up and clothing is perfectly immaculate and flawless, portraying her matureness in both her style and personality.

Beth:

We asked our friend Lottie to play the role of Beth. Beth is shown as the kooky and quirky one out of the group of girls. Lottie is first seen walking around outside in a mix match outfit implying that she hasn't been home since the day before. She then walks into a public toilets and comes out looking much more elegant in a black high waisted skirt and pair of black heels. In the film we show a bag of clothes in a cubicle which has been left there by either Beth or one of her other friends earlier on in the morning. When Beth leaves the toilet she is has done her make up and hair and looks much more tidy and sleek than when she entered the toilets.

Martha:

We asked our friend Hatty to play the role of Martha. Out of all the girls it is clear to see that Martha has been affected by the suicide the most. She wakes up very scruffy looking with eye make up smudges visible down her face. It appears t the audience that she is not going to be getting up as she sits up, looks at pictures of Lily and buries her head into her hands and falls back down. She later gets up and goes to the bathroom to change into her black outfit. As she comes out the bathroom it is clear to see that she hasn't really put much of an effort into her appearance. She leaves that house still looking sad and very emotional.
