Travelling and arriving (Breakfast Club)

Breakfast Club


RICH GIRL (PRINCESS)

This character is commonly seen as a pretty and popular girl that can get whatever she wants with her parents money and is seen dressed in nice bright clothing; mainly pastels and pinks. Her overall appearance would be quite slim, put-together and formal compared to other high school girls. Arriving on screen, she is seen in a BMW passenger seat which we can associate with rich people and her father talking to her in a calm way. Implying she can just go shopping after and handing her what looks like a shopping bag shows just how easily accessible money is to her and her family which we can infer that she is  just a snobby rich kid. She can be seen as one of the main characters as she is given one of the most screen time. 



GEEK (BRAIN)

This character would be seen in jumpers and smart and formal attire in general as he is the brains of the bunch. The overall appearance of the geek would be quite short and skinny with glasses and a book bag where he would have high trousers and a goofy hair cut. When he arrives, he is seen with his mother and little brother in a working class car where he is shouted at by his mother telling him to find any possible way of studying. He is also quite venerable as he is scared off from his chair by the bully who enters and finding another seat from this.



JOCK (ATHLETE)

This character is dressed is sporty attire with a jock football/baseball jacket and trainers with a 'pretty boy' face. They can be given a colour theme that matches the school colours and their overall appearance is tall, fit and muscular. When he arrives onto the screen, he is seen in an SUV/pick up truck with his father who doesn't look entirely rich. He is seen to be in a position of scolding as he is about to go to detention and left by his father who drives off, from this we can infer that he is one of the main characters.



BULLY (CRIMINAL)

Walking towards the camera straight across the road with a possibility of getting run over we see a mysteriously looking guy with sunglasses and a long coat, this gives a sense of rebellion even as he does not flinch when the car stops centimetres away from him. He is long haired and tall telling us he's going to be trouble and quite scary. He also asserts dominance to the brains showing us that he is a bully when he takes his seat and pulls the chair next to him to put his feet up on it. We can also tell that he is used to this kind of behaviour where his movements are quick and his facial expressions seem serious all the time.


QUIET OUTCAST (BASKET CASE)

She appears last on arrival which emphasises the fact that she is the quiet and misunderstood one who wants to be unseen as she scurries of to the back in the library. As well as this, she somewhat walks towards the tinted front window when the car suddenly drives off conveying that the parents that drove her there did not really care about her and this rejection gives her a personality that is quite timid and weird. Her overall appearance is dark and this keeps her hidden as an individual among the crowd.
