After my presentation I feel a lot more secure in my ideas for my two characters. As I was unsure as to what character to choose between to go with Quentin (Mrs Laderman or Claudia), I am glad that I got the opinion of those in my class as to who they would rather see me do. I definitely agree with their opinion that I should do Mrs Laderman over Claudia because she is a much more interesting character. Kat did mention as to whether I would be able to adapt the storyline I have chosen to make her more interesting, I did think about using the 'lost Princess' idea as there is one in the TV series- however I don't know if it would make her more interesting or not.
I think that now I need to research more into my characters, to see how I can style them along with what poses they can do in the character portraits. For Quentin, I did think about going down the religious route of having him also be a symbol for religion, which would also work with my idea of a crown of thorns and the words 'Save Us'- making him the epitome of the 'Saviour'.
I think for Mrs Laderman I need to research into how I can do different makeup looks for her character- I can go all out on the makeup or refine it back so that she is shown as just a normal human. I think I would quite like to do more makeup as my TA piece was very simple, however her being just normal could also be seen as evil because it shows her 'human' side making her even more of a monster because of what she does.
I think that if I do multiple face charts for each character, I'll be able to assess my options and then make a decision as to what route I want to go down when finalising my characters.
