New Characters - Sophia

Zoe Ellis's character

Name: Sophia
Meaning: Wisdom

We wanted Sophia to be the innocent, deceived character who had been reeled in by Layla. We're going to portray Sophia as the binary opposite to Layla with several different aspects of the morning routine.

Firstly, Sophia will stay in her pyjamas throughout the opening, furthermore her pyjamas will be a childish design, our ideas are that they will have some sort of animal design on them. In addition to this, during the 'getting ready' part of the movie Sophia will be in her bathroom applying a face mask, and peeling it off - we were hoping this would represent the clean, purity of her. She will also be barefoot throughout, adding to the down-to-earth natural aspect of her personality. In the kitchen she will be preparing food for Layla, showing her homely and caring nature, only wanted to look after and care for her other half. Our hope was to successfully portray Sophia and Layla as binary opposites to one another.

We chose the name Sophia as it sounds very sweet, and innocent, but this has the meaning of wisdom. Sophia will be mainly seen as the victim, but when Layla's phone goes off we'll see Sophia immediately look over to Layla pick up the phone, also in the coffee making scene we see a sachet of poison put into the coffee, although we do not see who put it in adding mystery and complexity to the plot.
