The JockThe jock is often a popular guy that all the girls like that is into athletics.The jocks tends to behave as if they are undefeatable in movies but tend to be the ones to die. In final destination the jock below tends to think that he’s the best at everything, andcan get away with everything until death takes its told.
In my trailer the Jock and the Pervert are both combined.
The Pervert is usually exposed in a negative manner. The pervert tends to have his eyes on a particular girl who he goes to lengths to sleep with.In this case the villain tends to attack the pervert.
THE FINAL GIRL
The final girl is the person who survives to the end of the movie.This person is the most reliable, strong willed and most influential character in the movie.Also this person tends to be the main attraction of the villain.
For example in scream the woman below seems to always attract the villian.
THE POPULAR GIRL
The popular girl always seems to be centre of attention with guys which
makes her to become more confident in herself. The popular girl
tends to be friends with the final guy. Also the popular girl tends to
be into herself and vain.
THE WANDERER
The wanderer is the person who wonders around and is inquisitive about
their surroundings. In slasher horrors these are the first people to die.
In my trailer the wanderer is combined with the popular girl because she wonders off.
THE GEEK
This is the person who is voice of reason in a movie. The geek is a person who is
very academic and serious.
In my trailer the geek will also be the voice of reason and the person who comes out
of their shell.
OVERALL
Overall the stock characters that I have
mentioned are the ones that I'll include in my
trailer. These characters are crucial in
relating with my audience because in a lot of
circumstances there are these people in
friendship groups. Also it helps the audience
to understand the trailer better by
establishing the characters.
