Character profile

Kareem Jarad (John) who will play the fundamental character has been advised to play a character with the purpose of retribution at the forefront of his thoughts just as torment and lament. This is the thing that depicts the feelings of the characters and mental state inside the film. The audience will have the option to take care of this feeling and will be able to tell there is a tragic story behind this character. 

The principal character is between 20-30 years old. It's never completely referenced in the initial succession yet through appearance and the characters non-verbal communication you can tell he is still youthful. He has an essential American/Canadian articulation. He is from Canadian plunge and moves to America for a superior life yet becomes involved with some awful things. 

Our primary character carries out certain responsibilities for the mafia to get  himself started when he first moves to America, and it's great from the outset he's raking in boatloads of cash and making companions out of it as well anyway he can't live with himself realizing he's stinging individuals to get his cash. 

So he takes his cash and leaves the mafia anyway. He knows an excessive number of privileged insights and is a risk to them so the chase starts for them to discover him and this is the place. Our initial arrangement starts with the principle character canvassed in blood battling for his life.

Kareem Jarad playing John

Locations: their will only be one main location we will be filming which will be in Al qudra desert as well as we may use abandoned buildings to help give an even more tense atmosphere

Mise en scene: Their will be lots of different props and costumes needed throughout the opening sequence to create the meaning to the audience some of the costumes that will be used is suits for the antagonists and ripped and beat down clothing for the protagonist furthermore the props we would like to use fake guns and fake blood to help create the tension.

 Sound: the sound effects we will be using is gunshots to go with the gun props we’re using in the opening sequence we will also be needing a soundtrack for the opening and closing of the scene to help portray the genre of the film we will also be using diegetic and no diegetic sound in our opening sequence
