Character development

 Hello blog! As you may know, our characters Maya Miller is the main character and Lucy Walker is her best friend and victim of the film. In order to create the plot correctly, we have to include character development in our film. Our group decided to focus on Maya's character development the most since she is the main character and our genre is a psychological thriller. In order to develop a psychological thriller correctly, we have to really create this distinction between Maya at the begging of the film and at the end after all the series of events happen.

We want Maya to be this closed, shy, simple girl who just enjoys being in company with her best friend. We wanted to make Lucy's personality very contrasting to Maya so that the viewer can understand their contrasting dynamic between their friendship. Lucy is very outgoing and talkative, she loves having adventures and trying new things. Lucy pushes Maya to try new things which is why they went jogging outside in the first place. We will also represent this in the friendship in dialogue and body language during our intro.

Maya will start changing the way she behaves once Lucy is killed. Maya will struggle with her mental health and start questioning reality. In the end, the viewer will learn that it was in al Maya's imagination and that she imagined having this friend "Lucy" in the first place. Maya created this friend in her mind to motivate her to do the things she was afraid to. Sadly because Maya suffers from having episodes of hallucinations, she suffered all this time trying to find how her friend was killed for nothing. And she never got to understand that her reality was completely false and she created it all in her mind.
