Portrayal
The portrayal of a certain person of character in film implies the delineation of its characteristic features, revelation of particular behavioural patterns and peculiarities, as well as representation of its unique outward appearance. The portrayal of a person or character habitually builds on the impetus of the director and the interpretation of the actor; in addition, creative use of light and camera practice may have a decisive effect on the portrayal of a character.
