Similarities and differences between my character and Jesse Eisenberg and Joe Thomas 

my character shares a few similarities with other normal characters from films produced in the last few years. Foe example Joe Thomas plays a normal teenage boy in high school and has to act as such in the inbetweeners and Jesse Eisenberg acts as a guy in his late teens who has to try and not take advantage of multiple opportunities when the end of the world comes around in zombie-land. My character is similar to these two because i have to act in character which means i have to react and act like a normal teenager would in the given scenario which is a failed Ouija board attempt. The audience can relate to my character in some ways especially teenage boys as i am one myself both in the film and in real life. This means that a teenage audience would be able to relate more to my character as i am wearing traditional teenage clothing such as a hoodie and jeans and therefore visually the audience can relate to how i am supposed to act and behave.

The attire we are wearing is similar with Jesse Eisenbergs because we are both wearing a shirt with a hoodie over the top, the difference is that i have my hoodie zipped up whereas Jesse Eisenberg does not. Joe Thomas on the other hand is wearing a traditional school uniform and therefore i cannot relate as i am not in school uniform at the time of our filming.

How i act is also quite similar to the actors i am comparing myself with as we are both supposed to be average/normal guys, this means that we have to act as such, i do this with my reactions as i act scared and unsure of the idea of the Ouija board which my character stereotypically would do, this means i conform to stereotypes as i act in an appropriate matter to the specific sections of the movie.
