Characters
I am now starting to work on developing the characters, specifically the main boy and girl, and brainstorming their personalities. Considering that my storyline is somewhat based off of true events, I want to make the character authentic to the real people. I also need to find people who could pull off acting as the two main characters. Being that the main character is based off of me I want to create her personality similar to mine, giving us the same features and personality characteristics. The female character is someone who is always happy and smiling and kind to everyone. She is new to the relationship and boy world, making her vulnerable and not really sure about what to do in certain situations. This is where another very important character comes to play, the best friend. The main characters best friend is always there for her and has her back no matter what. She is much more experienced in the guy department and helps out her friend. The boy who is first introduced as extremely good looking, tall, with a great personality, is one of the typical hot guys that every girl drools over in movies. As the story continues and this character starts developing more, viewers start to see that he is a huge jerk that only uses girls to get what he wants. He comes across as a sweet, funny, honest guy but then transforms into someone who breaks girls hearts. The development going deeper into the characters personalities and traits is still in process, but the main idea for them is there. I am worried that I won't be able to find people that fit my image of the main girl and boy. Luckily I already have someone in mind to play the best friend. I want to have the characters look somewhat like the real characters, to keep the characters as realistic as possible. There are probably going to be physical features on both characters I will have to adjust, specifically the male character, for example his blue eyes or blonde hair or lean figure, but hopefully I can find a way to make both characters feel real and make certain truths to the story come alive with the characters.
