DCI Walker- Antony Clark

DCI Walker was our main character in our 2 minute opening, alongside PC Hunt and PC Clark.

DCI Walker was our main character in our 2 minute opening, alongside PC Hunt and PC Clark.

DCI Walker was unable to work on the case involved with our storyline due to a personal relationship with the victim so was mourning the death of young Daisy Walker and

awaiting for any news of the suspects through his colleagues.

We used Antony Clark – a drama teacher at Salesian School - to play this character.

After doing research on home-made thriller films, we found the main problem was

not effectively replicating adult detectives due to not

looking old enough

We had to find inspiration for the personality and costume

The best way to do this was watch other films that had

similar storylines and characters to our film

We first looked at Agent Strahm’s scene in Saw IV when he is looking through papers

involved with the “games”.

Despite this film being in a different genre, we looked at Special Agent Peter Strahm’s character for inspiration due to their similarities with working with cases. Both

characters work alone to solve a problem – one way or another.

We tried to mimic the shots that are circled as we liked how Agent Strahm did this before showing his anger at the case. In order for this to work we did the same with our character right before he stored into the evidence room – fed up of

waiting for his colleagues.

Whereas in Saw IV, Agent Strahm proceeds to smash up his desk in his scene, we showed DCI Walkers anger by him

slamming the door & going into the evidence room.

DCI Walker: Costume- Inspiration and Research

The inspiration for DCI Walkers costume

was based around the David Fincher

film: “Se7en” starring Brad Pitt & Morgan

Freeman

We copied this look with our character as

we think it looked quite professional and we wanted to

make the detective look as effective as

possible

The age of the detectives was another important aspect of the characters looks as in

all of the thriller films we researched the detectives were adults – not teenagers

pretending to be an older age.

Typical iconography for detectives is coffee to suggest they’ve been working hard & are tired. We

wanted to show this in our film as we wanted to make it as similar to existing thriller films as possible

PC Hunt & PC Clark- Edgar Walker and Conor Sawenko

Our other two main characters were PC Clark and PC Hunt – colleagues of DCI Walker

PC Hunt & PC Clark- Edgar Walker and Conor Sawenko

Our other two main characters were PC Clark and PC Hunt – colleagues of DCI Walker

PC Hunt and PC Clark are shown closing down the case after the chief said they were getting no where after months of searching. PC Hunt and PC Clark had no emotional connection to Daisy Walker the victim and therefore could work on the case on DCI

Walker’s behalf.

I don’t think this casting worked as well as DCI Walker as the age of the actors

made it look unbelievable that they were a similar age to Antony Clark

If we redid our filming we would of chose two other

adults to play these characters as well.

PC Hunt & PC Clark: Costumes- Inspiration and Research

As said before, we used David Fincher’s film

“Se7en” as inspiration for our two PC’s as we

wanted to portray a similar work

relationship between our characters

We wanted to mimic the costumes from the “Se7en” characters for our own,

however there was costume problems due to the age of our characters and there lack of smart clothes (suits).

After watching scenes from “Se7en” we also discovered that documents/folders were typical iconography for detectives.

Daisy WalkerDaisy Walker doesn’t actually physically feature

in our two minute film as the film is set a few months after she was murdered.

Instead we use images that DCI Walker are looking through showing him & Daisy together

when they were kids.

If we redid this film, or parts of it, we would have had a more up-to-date image of her both on the evidence board and in DCI Walkers pile of images.

- Briefly shown on the evidence board

Darren Smith was one of our suspects for the murder of Daisy Walker. In our two minute film he was briefly shown in

the panning shots of the evidence board.

look at as well.

If the whole film was made the suspects would all feature however in the first two minutes they are only shown through the mugshot

photographs.
