Props for Protagonist

Props for Protagonist
 
 
Radio:

Our protagonist has the radio set to the news so when he wakes up he can find out what the latest events are around the world. This shows that our character as a key interest in world events and likes to be kept up to date. In our film we used the radio to carry the message of the potential terrorist attack in London.  We used the radio as it lets us easily create a voice-over for a person speaking on the radio, leading to a simple but effective shot.
Phone:
 
The phone our protagonist uses is an Iphone. We used an Iphone to show that our character keeps up with the latest trends in technology and also it shows that our character has some wealth. We used the Iphone in our film to easily show two of our characters talking together.
 
Cup of Coffee:
When our character enters the kitchen he drinks a cup of coffee.  We used the coffee to signify how our character wants to wake up and forget about the stressful nightmare he had. This shows that he has a form of dependence on the drug caffeine and he is conventionally then not as strong as a person would stereotypically consider a protagonist to be.
