Claudia & Quentin TV Series and ideas

What have you chosen – and why.
I have chosen True blood, the TV series as my back drop for Claudia and Quinton.
I feel Claudia could easily be moulded to fit in with the  dark, quirkiness of Bon-temps, and its diverse complex mysterious characters.
True blood not only has imaginations running wild but also hearts with the “drop dead” , (no punt indented!) main characters.
Its a community full of magic and mysteriousness  were anything can happen to anyone and each persons stories fit beautifully around Sookie and her day to day going on.
What is the setting for series? American South, urban Bristol etc.
Within the suburb area of Bon temps

Audience demographics
Who watches this?
The series is aimed at adult women and men 18 years to late forty's. It gives the viewer a touch with the dark side, and a feeling of playing with fire.
Women tend to enjoy the romance and story telling while men love the violence and sex.
Hopeless romantics
Crazy in love

despiration

Your first character
How do they fit in with the series?
Claudia is known well within the Bon Temps community as a local crazy, and Sookie has taken a shine to her, feeling her sorry for being an outcast.
Sookie completely understands the sadness that comes from being seen different by everyone and goes out of her way to look after her as she's acrophobic. She visits her on a weekly basis at her apartment rented off her good friend, shape shifter and boss, Sam Merlotte.
How will the setting inform your character.
She will have a ever changing appearance, such as hair or makeup  possibly a superficial wounds, but this Is just accepted by Sookie as part of her personality
What will you need to change/add to your character?
Ill need to add history for Claudia to fill her out as a character to become more believable i.e.
She has a addiction to V (Vampire blood)
She attended the same school as Sookie Stackhouse
How will the look appeal to audience demographics?
Its purposely tailored around the everyday goings on, just like the TV series and books we see the blood but who did it come from?
It will have the dark seduction and mysterious to it like that of the series.
What key word did you choose to develop your first character?
Why did you choose it.
I chose fork as my key word for Claudia as its the weapon that she uses on Quinton to stab him in the neck when her materializers in her apartment.
What did the key word inspire you to investigate? Photography/other films/other horror characters/books etc.
Iv looked into neck wounds that have been inflicted by bluntter objects.
The amount of blood loss from these injurys
What scene do you see your character in – reference the setting and styling of character, character motivation
This will be the last scene with both Quinton and Claudia in it. Quinton ha appeared in her apartment fresh from a feed witch is obvious to Claudia. She also knows that feeding on humans generally leads to sex because of the power of blood and vampire bite is amazing. So Claudia go's into a rage and stabs him with a silver fork in the neck.
Sookie knock the door with her weekly shop and sees Claudia in a guilty crazed state, sees all the blood but no one else……so who

What key word did you choose to develop your second character
Why did you choose it.
I chose face as my key word for Quinton as his appearance is always either muted or focused when he appears in Claudia's apartment, this is depending on her moods.
What did the key word inspire you to investigate? Photography/other films/other horror characters/books etc.
Iv re watch woman in black as I feel this is a good example of faces being muted or blurred. Its only occasionally that you have a full feel of her appearance

Claudia Mood Board




i envision claudia a very desturbed girl, although this may not be visable from the out side. i origanally want to play around with the ideas of a dark eyes and lips but i would like her to lok a little bit more desturbed and yet normal at the same time. to do this im going to incoperate pop art into it as this give the look of her her not being real, which is like her current state of mind.
