Creating a Protagonist

The protagonist that I have created is called Alia. She is female, 20 years old and lives in England.

Lighting - spotlights, she'll always be in the light even when in a dark setting.

Camera - she's shot as the taller character in the visual hierarchy because she is the most important character, close-ups of her face, mid-shots and long-shots to show body language, shaky camera movements to make it seem more dramatic.

Editing - fast, dramatic cuts, montages to show time passing.

Sound - loud, fast-paced music for action. English accent - shows seriousness. 

Mise en scene - She wears all black. Jeans and top. Long brown hair. Dark makeup - black eye makeup. Mobile phone for a prop and possibly a weapon. Location - on backstreets/alleys. - All of this creates a dramatic and cool look for the character.

I think that my protagonist would look similar to Tris Prior from Divergent.
