Characters

    We've decided to take major inspiration from older 80s romantic comedies such as The Breakfast Club, Sixteen Candles, Pretty in Pink, Say Anything, and When Harry met Sally for mise-en-scene, characters, and costume designing. We've started brainstorming our main characters and started designing mood boards which I will be posting soon. 

    So far we have established our two main characters and their aesthetics. Our female lead is named April, she's a senior in high school and is one of the artsy kids. What do I mean by this? Well, she paints, plays the guitar, plays the piano, and used to dance ballet. She's also a bookworm and a goody-two-shoes. We have a really well-rounded idea of who she is. Additionally, she'll drive a 1978 Volkswagen super beetle convertible which we thought fit her personality and aesthetic pretty well.

Our male lead is named Ricky and he's also a senior in high school. He is of the cliche "bad boy" type however not too cliche that it's cheesy. Ricky has 2 little brothers, skateboards, mountain bikes, wants a motorcycle, and drives a 1986 Ferrari Testarossa. He spends his Fridays partying with his friends and may end up in detention multiple times a week. He puts on a facade when he's at school compared to when he's at home with his family though. 

Well, that is all for today! Write to you guys later!
