For Anusha in our film opening we wanted to give a sense of creepiness and yet at the same time make her quite mysterious to the audience almost as if they know she is there but will never be able to really figure her out and whom she truly is, therefore not knowing her true personality.
Voldemort is similar in the sense that in the series almost no witch or wizard dares to speak his name, instead referring to him by epithets such as "You-Know-Who", "He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named" or "the Dark Lord". This gives a sense of nobody really knowing his true personality, how much power he has or the lengths he would go to. So they know little about him, similarly to Anusha. This leads him or her to be scared of this being and this is what we try to achieve with Anusha aka the villain.
It is even possible to relate both Maria as the innocent victim being like harry potter as the villain seems constantly after Maria and this is the same with Voldemort being after Harry potter. We had used Maira as our main protagonist as she is there to represent teenagers. Maria was also used as she can be related to by teenagers and as she wakes up from her nightmare we see the typical girly pink room with JLS poster and her in pyjamas. Another reason we picked Maria is because she is a young female protagonist therfore showing the audience that she is vunerable and helpless in her nightmare.
In the film, Voldemort shows us that he has supernatural abilities and this can be seen with the villain in our film as it gives of the idea that this being has a supernatural ability. Both Voldemort and Anusha wear cloaks, as we never wanted to reveal what Anusha was wearing underneath, as this would give her away as clothes can really describe someone.
Therefore our villain is more of a complex type of character then Voldemort yet their basic characteristics are similar. Therfore Anusha fits the criminal social group at the very least. Maria on the other hand fits the teenage social groups.
