  SYMBOL

BIOGRAPHY
She will be a destructive and atractive woman. who kills everyman who comes in her way, she doesnt believe in love, beceause in her planet there isn't sort of thing, she dosn't know what emotions are, she is an allien, never grow old and eats males to survive. She will be the creation of a toxic flower, no parents at all or cultural context. she is toxic, and combats the chovinism world war and desforastation. after seeing how poultion killed the flower she came from.

*It has to create attention and fear
* be sexy and violent
* rough and beautiful

Just as trinity do, the avat will be the main character the focus atention. It will recall characteristics of trinity simple, minimalist, a plain color pallete. However very sexy!

Life Questions
This Avatar is obvioulsy a representation of the female gender and most have all the characteristis that it implies.
The real controversy or life question is  ¿how the female gender has been transofrming throughout time? 
¿ what image does science fiction reflect of the female gender?
¿ is this femme fatale image that we associate on our science fiction movies the image that females are creating?
Both the movie we saw (Gravity) and Matrix, present main characters that are women. Both character represent roughness, inteligence,  idealist among other things.

¿ is the woman idea changing thoughout time?
¿ do we have an other idea, in our present of woman?
Now weman in movies can be astronauts, be computer hackers
¿ are genders equalizing?

FEMME FATALE

Femme fatale a really common word nowadays in our society, but what does this word really implies?
To be a femme fatale you first need to be a woman obviously, nontheless is not the only thing. A femme fatale is a woman strong enough to stand for herself, to be the main character in her story, the role model of their life.
¡A femme fatale is sexy but dangaraus a person to be afraid.!
¡A femme fatale is seductive and violence.!

All this aesthetic is really difficult tu capture and its definately going to be a challenge in this project.
My Femme fatale for this science fiction based project is one that I consider stresses all this


                                                                        TRINITY 
Trinity is the main female role in the matrix, not to say that the only one. A female is difficult to potray in the matrix due to its high violence and rough tasks troughout the movie. Nonetheless Trinity plays one of the most important roles in this movie, she although a woman, represent hardness, intelligence and agility.
Her physical characteristics are easy to potray, she is beautiful, skinny, simple, smooth skin, quite an antonym of her personality.
