Meeting and Breaking Convention 
Is it just me or every time i watch a scary film the victim is always blonde? :0
Well in my film i have challenged this stereo-type and made my self (a dark haired person) the victim, instead of a vulnerably innocent looking protagonist. I have been looking around to find prime examples where they meet up to these stereo types and look what i found... Not only can victims be blonde and bubbly, but evil characters are actually dark haired for example look in the The Grudge, the villan has clearly got dark long hair. Playing around with characters are often done in films to keep everything contemporary and exiting. I have also done this and with making my jet black hair work with the innocent 'look'. Going against the media's perception of blonde hair girls being dumb, vulnerable victims and placing myself in that position to prove that through camera shots such as, high angle and facial expression i can also demonstrate the innocent look and pull it off successfully, resulting me to go fight against the media's interpretation as i do not agree with stereo-types!
