Character Theory

Hey again! Today I will be discussing the topic of the specific theory that i am gonna include in my film. The theory i choose to add to my opening is Character theory. The character theory has 7 different types of characters and then the audience then visualizes the characters actions to see into what roles they can classify them into, however in this situation we have decided to use the antagonist/villain. This theory is supposed to help the audience understand that our character is the antagonist by visualizing their actions. 

A key factor when you are tying to give off the villain you need to develop a compelling backstory, clear motivations of what they wanna do, and a distant personality which really shows has opposing towards the hero, you just need to show that they are the bad guy. For example in the Dark Knight, in this scenario Joker is the villain and he really makes his intentions straight forward like when he enters a gang meet up and starts saying he will kill the batman and later on shows has not messing around by killing the person who calling him crazy and opposed against him, and it gives the audience a clear idea that the Joker is working against the protagonist for the desire to prove that the society morals are falling apart, and has trying to prove that by first getting rid of the protagonist (Batman).

I am planning on using this theory because I feel like in my opening idea it would be really easy from my part to really give the audience the idea of who the villain, and picking up the small hints that lead up to him becoming the villain so with some motivation. Since I'm doing horror it makes it easier for me because the audience already knows the film is gonna have a unexpected plot twist.
